"Fan fiction was what got me into writing in the first place." Make it fun, and you bring down psychological barriers. #dml2015
Any session that asks me to recognize the Doctor Who theme tune - and season! - is a-ok by me. (I got it right, obvs.) #dml2015

Message to institutions on equal opportunities: "Stop wasting genius." - @vanjones68 #dml2015

"We're giving people the space and the opportunity to try, and we can't be afraid of failure." @mariateresa1 #dml2015

"We pretend we have diversity in the United States. We don't. We have bubbles that touch." - @vanjones68 #dml2015
"We're only 5% of the world's population, but we have 25% of the world's prisoners." Important equality stats from @vanjones68. #dml2015
I hesitate to ask, but I'm genuinely curious: what is the gaming community objecting to? What constructive discussion can happen? #dml2015

Why would you spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on platforms that support how students learned 10 years ago? #dml2015
