On February 14th Devex tweeted out “Our love for you is totally scalable. #DevelopmentValentines are back.” And just like that, a conversation was born. Here are some of our favourite tweets that came as a result of it.

Violets are blue
I’ve got a question
And a comment, too
ps: actually, it’s more like 2 comments. Or, more accurately, 2 thinly-veiled criticisms.#AcademicValentines
