My favorite parts about the

launch:
• The intentional brand mentions
• The community building (free swag & crowdsourced suggestions for equipment)
• The

Everyone, pay attention 👀
We have (had) an airtag on our stroller. It helps us locate the stroller when we are at theme parks. Well... It looks like it fell off the stroller on our last flight and is now in Phoenix.
So excited to have

Looking forward to the students learning more about accessibility and social media.

Six years ago, I saw
@Sethrogen
in line for McDonald’s breakfast at the Atlanta Airport.
As you can tell, he was thrilled. Thank you, Seth, for your extreme patience with 22 year-old Will.

It took a ton of hard work to get to where I am now. A few notes: My mental state is much healthier. Therapy is good for you. Talk to someone. Be open and honest. Leave things that are damaging to your well-being.
Ten years ago, I was couch surfing, made $400 a month in an abusive internship, and barely (I mean barely) made ends meet.
I’m so grateful for where I am, doing what I do, and that I made it through that time.❤️
I'm going to start labeling my lectures as clickbait.

My favorite part about living near theme parks? You can always run into friends. It was awesome seeing long-time Twitter friends,

, Kourtney and
@TheMouseAndMore
at EPCOT!
Today is the day! The surgery just started. She was in good spirits and smiling when she was wheeled away. Thanks everyone for the messages this past week.

It's
#BreastCancerAwarenessMonth
. This year, my wife and I had to face the reality and risks of
#BRCA2
. Next week, she will take preventive measures to sharply decrease cancer risk. It's been a weird, anxious, and scary time, but we are grateful for all the support.
