I managed to miss most of the horrible Paternity Leave Discourse because, well, I'm on paternity leave until January. But: Parental leave should be universal, and it should be universally taken. And not just so men can be helpmates to their wives, who're doing the Real Work.

I began photo classes in high school and they had a huge impact on my life. Photography can teach media literacy, analytical thinking and long term planning and should be broadly available to students, making a career in a creative field accessible to all. It's also fun af. 2/?

. in Naples just changed mask wearing to ‘recommended’ instead of required today. We’re just on vacation but just did a run with my 1.5 year old who doesn’t mask and it sucks people can’t just wear a mask to keep others safe still.
Proud of this team who appreciated how high the stakes were when it counted and no I will not apologize for the pun thank you.
