I have some photos released in a zine. The first one is called "Prayer" and the second one is called "Melt". First one was shot on Kodak Portra 400, the second on Ilford Delta 400. I'll never get tired of being surprised when I develop a roll of film.

can someone just tell me a tripod to get? there's like a billion of them and they all look identical. I need to:
- hold a big 6x7 camera sometimes
- hold an SLR most of the time
- take it with me places, but not like, up a mountain or on a flight

Every day in America you are encouraged to be a business because businesses just have more rights than people, and the logical conclusion a lot of people make as a business is to have little or no loyalty to America.

The death of uBlock Origin was a reminder about how intense ads have gotten. like most of the above-the-fold nytimes homepage is a photo of Jon Hamm (which, good for him)

Here’s a work in progress. Shot of my brother on Fujifilm Neopan 100 Acros II on my Nikon F100. First time using this film stock, and I think I like it.

Remembering a former coworker telling me that universal healthcare was bad because Scandinavian countries have that and “they have a boredom problem”

in photography, it turns out there are a lot of decisive moments, and one of them is in post

Or (bear with me) you can get all of these things and so much more by just voting for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social
To be clear, I’m not supporting Cuomo at the moment- I’d want to see a strong support of congestion pricing & pedestrian safety & housing abundance before I did. But I also won’t rule him out based on past transgressions bc when progressives do that they self sabotage & lose.

remember how mayor Adams, the executive that speaker Adams has direct authority to hold accountable, broke several laws, and she proceeded to do absolutely nothing? that’s definitely who we want as our next mayor.
Adrienne Adams, the Council speaker, says the administration of Mayor Eric Adams has not spoken out for New Yorkers against harmful Trump policies. “What I don’t agree with is being silent,” Ms. Adams said. “You’ve got to say something.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/27/n...

Allies, including Letitia James, the state attorney general, are talking to her about a run against Eric Adams and Andrew M. Cuomo.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”
Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story.

Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver.

This is what "merit" means to them.
