The primary thing I feel is love for the people I got to know over the last 4.5 years at Twitter.

I’m sad I won’t be returning from leave but thank you all for so many good memories and learnings that will be with me for life. Please stay in touch 💙 #lovewhereyouworked

@BeckBroJack we met you today and you asked any videos we think you should do and my son couldn’t think of anything but just thought of Cosmonious High on VR! Super cute fun game he loves. Loved meeting you. He had tears in his eyes after cause it meant so much to him.

@tjlull I don’t say it lightly when I say working with you was one of the highlights of my career at Twitter. Catch you on the flip side my friend 💙

[Alyssa Reese @aaReese]

@kndl Kendall I really enjoyed working with you. Let’s grab a Longmont coffee one of these days ☕️

[Alyssa Reese @aaReese]

There’s too much to say so I’ll just post this jello cake I just made for my son’s bday at his request complete with jello coy fish. I cried at least 3 times making it because it turns out gelatin art is not something you can just pick up over the weekend. But he loved it 😊

Gendered kids clothing sections need to go away. Why do I have to walk my son over to a “girls” section if he wants leggings and clothes that are colorful or have flowers? It’s a ridiculous construct and hurts children’s self expression @target

[Alyssa Reese @aaReese]

Being a single parent is lonely. I made peace with my lonely, even celebrated it at times. Never did I imagine 6 years on that solo path would one day lead me to my soulmate and best friend. We just got engaged and I’m so excited to experience this new phase of togetherness ❤️
