Whaaaaaaaat?! Trogdor and I share the same birthday. This is the best present ever. And I even got a Nintendo Switch and a ukulele this year. Haha.
18 years ago today, I drew a little dragon and screamed a little song. Come celebrate #Trogday with the first new homepage in over 10 years. https://t.co/LLsdpZJKgG

Years ago I started finishing conversations by saying âLove youâ (or ya) to people all the time. Family, friends, acquaintances. Even business associates if it feels appropriate & non-Weinstein-ish. The softening in my heart each time I say it is worth more than gold. Love you đ
