@itselizadoll O my gosh I just realized I have been spelling this word wrong my entire life 😂

[Alex Van Fossen @alexvf12]

Does anyone else have a relatively simple word that they just never seem to spell right? Mine is unfortunately. Not going to tell you how many times I retyped that until I got it right.

If y'all want to thank someone who works their trail off in this time, give a shoutout to @brailey_therese because she is a true MVP and helps everyone she can

[Alex Van Fossen @alexvf12]

If you don't know any personally, send some thanks in the direction of @brailey_therese

Guys, there's a lot of healthcare professionals working hard to take care of us. Not just doctors and nurses - there's folks you don't see doing important lab testing. If you know anyone working as a nurse, doctor, or medical lab scientist, reach out and say thank you.

You know you’re dating an engineer when he comes into the living room, still on a work call, and grabs the TV remote. Not to turn on the TV - to analyze the design.

Starting to measure the length of this isolation by how many candles I can burn through. Count so far: 1.5

[Alex Van Fossen @alexvf12]

Or high school grads!! I don't know anyone in that bucket, but I'm sure some of you do!

[Alex Van Fossen @alexvf12]

Got my grad cap & gown. I'm bummed I probably won't be able to walk for my grad degree but it made me think most of those who might not be able to walk for their undergrad. If you know someone who will be graduating - be sure to reach out & tell them how proud you are of them

[Alex Van Fossen @alexvf12]

@zaqqvf Brah if you don't share it with anyone I'm not sure it counts but I'm trying lol

[Alex Van Fossen @alexvf12]

If you’re not using this shutdown to record “vlogs” and pretend you’re a famous youtuber sharing their day with an audience I highly recommend it

Here is the thing to understand about flattening the curve.

It only works if we take necessary measures before they seem necessary.

And if it works, people will think we over-reacted.

We have to be willing to look like we over-reacted.

Me to my son who is misbehaving: “Be nice to other people.”

Son: “Why?”

Me: “Because it’s the right thing to do. And it’s very hard to be happy if people don’t want to spend time with you.”

Obama says call-out culture is excessive, good people have flaws and the world is full of ambiguities. Also says that real change will take place through something other than being as judgmental as possible. He is right on all counts. https://t.co/ifKH9Onlef

Sometimes you find a really great guy.

And then he tells you he doesn’t like Waffle House, and you have to reconsider all your life decisions.
