This didn't happen. The perception that it did is largely based on fictional shows that were about rich people. Much more common was a household where one person (theoretically Dad in a het household) was the higher earner and paid the housing costs and the other paid utilities & food

I love to read (and write) non-fiction. @chanda.blacksky.app I am beyond excited to read your new book. The Disordered Cosmos still gives me chills ✨️✨️

You're trapped in the last tv show you watched. Where are you?

The fascism is killing us, some faster than others, but nearly all of us either way.

The fact that she asked the question amd followed up by asking how I take care of myself reminded me of why I wanted to do this work in the first place. /3

Then after class one of my students lingered so we could chat. She asked me, "as someone who's been doing this work for years, how do you keep it from consuming you?"

I was honest. Its not easy and there are days when it does get to me...but I think the work is necessary /2
