since bluesky hasn’t seen this photo, here it is. me and my dad when i was a wee babe. i couldn’t tell you where these photos are but i hope they turn up, my cousin had a book full of baby photos of me for some reason.

i miss you, dad.

a photo of bluesky user babyjaengel as a teeny tiny baby wearing a black and stout collared sleeveless white striped dress with red accents all over and white socks, hair short but wild, throwing a questioning look at the camera. her father is holding her on his lap, one arm around her back with the hand resting on the knee and the other hand holding her torso up. he is wearing his ever present uniform, a short sleeve button up shirt and khaki slacks. he wears gold rimmed aviator glasses with clear lenses, prescription. they sit outside together, in a brick-floored outdoor patio with flowering plants directly behind them and a lush lawn to the right, on a white outdoor plastic folding lounge chair. there are more plastic chairs flanking them in different styles with a table cloaked in white tablecloth closer to the camera in the corner of the photo. on the table there is a small glass goblet on an ornamental glass tray with an unknown light substance, maybe wine or lemonade.

You’ll never convince me that human beings are supposed to be working THIS hard, at this frequency, and for as long as we’ve become accustomed to. We are all so exhausted with no time to actually take care of ourselves or for each other. This shit hasn’t been normal for a while!

learned recently that the guy who wrote "The Night Before Christmas," clement clarke moore, also wrote a takedown of thomas jefferson's proto-scientific racism in "Notes on the State of Virginia," basically accusing him and others of making it up to justify slavery. which, that's right.

White people pretend they can't pronounce MAM-DA-NI but have no problem pronouncing Krzyzewski. Suspect AF.

The scale of the homelessness crisis among the youngest New Yorkers is staggering. We have to tackle it head on.

In addition to building significantly more affordable housing and bringing down the cost of living, I'll double funding for "Every Child and Family Is Known."

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am
