Just found out that if I ever did go back & finish my PhD, my dad has bought into the spurious attacks on Dr. Jill Biden and would not refer to me as Dr. Jess Phoenix.

This one hurts like a kick in the teeth. Fuck you, Fox News.
ALSO A GOOD TIME FOR THE REGULAR REMINDER:

Yes, I am All But Dissertation (ABD) on my PhD in Volcanology. No, I can't go back & finish what I started for various reasons. That's why I gently correct well-meaning folks who call me Dr. now. I didn't finish. Yes, it sucks.
ALSO ALSO:

People with Bachelors and Masters degrees can do/are doing fantastic science work. Don't discount them. The world is shitty enough as-is. Let's not make it harder for each other, k?
