The way I think I know exactly what you’re talking about because same

🥰 He keeps me on my toes for sure!

I KNOW sometimes I look at his little baby pictures and think about how he used to fit in my cat’s carrier and get all emotional 🥹 thank you bb! 💖

He was really working the camera 😂

Thank you bb 💖 it is terrible! I wish something would change and that we didn’t have to live like this!

They really shouldn’t and it’s wild to live in a place where they do all the time! Thanks Frost 💖

It was honestly so scary and continues to be in the aftermath 😩 it’s so absurd that this is a thing that Just Happens here

Thanks Haven 💖 it’s been so difficult to process

We’re so desensitized to gun violence with how often it happens in the US that stories about mass shootings don’t really linger with me the way they should or the way they used to, but this one definitely has me feeling as scared as we should probably feel, uh, all of the time.

(My employer has multiple campuses and it didn’t happen at the campus where my office is or where I go regularly, just now and then for meetings and events, so I wasn’t there, but there’s something about it happening at a place you go that’s really unsettling.)

Thanks bb 💖 I hate that we’re all dealing with it in some way or other! There’s just too much going on at once - the last month has felt like a year and then some 😩

I’m trying so hard to maintain some level of positivity right now because we have to do what we can to keep going in whatever way we can, but it is hard!

Saw some friends I don’t see that often last week and one of them asked how I was, and in my head I was like, “don’t you do it, don’t you mention the NIH funding cuts, we’re here to have fun”, and then it came out anyway two minutes later

Wow wow wow 😍

These are so cute 😭
