“I want to send an emergency alert to like everybody who's like a sophomore or junior in college and just be like, follow these 20 accounts on Twitter. And also join Twitter because like, this will just help your career. You're either like a year ahead or a year behind. Simply based on your feed. And my feed is like so so wired in. I'll still talk to to 20-year-olds that are like, Yeah, like, you know, I see some articles and I'm like, what do you mean? How do you see articles? Like, I don't even know what that means. Like, do you just get lucky that somebody emailed you an article? You just have to be wired in. I enjoy it. It's a lot of fun. I play with everything.”
