PSA: This picture was taken circa of Christmas 2000. I was two and looking at my 6 month old brother. Moving on! There’s always something different about the holiday season.

literally, no one cares

I was born in the spring of 1998. I don’t think I would’ve liked growing up in a different era. I grew up whilst technology was starting to really take off in terms of popularity and advancement. I got to enjoy my childhood as a kid playing outside with my brother and the neighborhood kids.…
