You see before you *Mark Chen, PhD*.
Above his head appears a label that changes every time you look at it between "*Hoodie-Wearing Games Scholar Thug*," "*PT Lecturer at UW Bothell*," and "*President of the United States, purveyor of alternative facts*."
Do you send him a tweet (*@mcdanger* <http://twitter.com/mcdanger>), check out his website (*markdangerchen.net* <http://markdangerchen.net/>), or respond to this email?
He looks at you expectantly with a smile.
