Treat your peers, other professionals and those you don't know with respect. Assume the best, act in good faith, and you'll be surprised at how reasonable people can be. Kindness. Take part.

@TeamYouTube I've tried monetizing my channel 5 times, I meet all the requirements and it just gives me the same vague error message but doesn't tell me what the issue actually is. Any way to fix this? Best,

I've never seen or felt such overwhelming generosity immediately coming into a new country before. Literally, my phone battery was low so aki-san walked out of the bar to a daiso and bought me a charger. Then all night I was fed food and drinks until we all went home. Unreal. – at Shibuya-ku, Tokyo

Thinking about how fun casting Pokemon Unite was. And how welcoming and awesome the community were. Any TOs hit me up, I'd love to cast some more!! – at Shibuya-ku, Tokyo

Very nervous posting this but almost a year ago I was at an extreme low point and I decided enough. I started working out, fixing diet, practicing skincare, meditating and being kinder to myself I don't know who needs to hear this but: You can do it and I'm rooting for you ❤

I'm learning how to live here and taking it day by day. It will be tough to integrate but I'm excited for the journey. I don't know what I'll do here or what my plans are in a year. Sometimes you've gotta just take a leap of faith, you never know where you'll land.

The last thing I want to say is: Live your best life, you only get one. Many of us get dealt bad hands but it's on us to play it the best we can. Longer story on Instagram.com/pulseirl

Emerging from cryosleep to cast some Pokémon Unite over at @G4TV's Unite Series w/ @doobsnax and @Froskurinn I was specifically told to be fun over professional and telling me that of all people just seems like a mistake. 3pm PT #G4Unite twitch.tv/g4tv

Not the news I wanted to see as I get off my plane in europe. I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said. I just feel so powerless. Doing my best to listen and stay informed. Good luck out there, everyone. Except you, putin.

One of the things I'm hearing is that a lot of people in Ukraine are going about their day, going to work, going on public transit. Somehow it feels worse that there's this surreal feeling of calm while the country is literally being invaded. I don't even know what I'd do

The fact there's a non-zero chance of WW3 scares the shit out of me and that's just a fraction of what folks in Ukraine on the ground are feeling. God this just sucks.
