Will I get a good income out of doing a PhD? Of course not.

But will I at least also find a stable job that allows me to pursue my research? Also no.

But will I at least be happy doing what I like? Hahaha also no.

Sounds like a terrible career. Where can I find the application?

We cannot have our own congresswoman sworn in because of this circus.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Mike Johnson: "We're so angry about it. I mean, I'm a very patient guy, but I've had it with these people. The theory we have right now -- they have a hate America rally that's scheduled for October 18 on the National Mall. It's the pro-Hamas wing and antifa people ... "

Excited to finally share my new paper (w/Raphaël Charron-Chénier) out in BJS! Staying Apart for the Kids looks at how older adults consider preserving family wealth in their new relationships.
