Socials 🤳
Though I have written a fair amount of social media content for different clients throughout my copywriting career, I haven't used social media in a personal capacity in almost a decade.
But there was a time when did use social media, and the artifacts below are from that time. Preserved on this page, they're removed from the invisible-but-real pressures of likes, comments, and tracking. Hope you enjoy.

tfw ur memes solve global warming
Throughout the summer of 2018, I maintained a terminally goofy eco-conscious meme page on Instagram. The account amassed a few hundred followers and Leslie Zemeckis commented on one of my posts before I felt the classic effects of social media brain warp and deleted the whole thing. I thought I'd lost these, but I recently found them in a derelict old cloud backup.

Now that's progress!!!
Also in 2018, back in the spring, I visited Walt Disney World with my family. At that point, we were going there once or twice a year or so. I'd noticed for years that the sign inside Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress was missing an apostrope: it read Walt Disney s Carousel of Progress.
I decided that if nobody at Disney had noticed this for years, it was up to me to try to do something about it. Back then, I had a Twitter account, so I tweeted at @WDWToday about the issue. I don't have a screenshot of that tweet, but I do have their reply once the sign was fixed:
My apostrope is still visible in Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress as of early 2026.
