I just started following an internet duck who has apparently been kidnapped by an insane bus driver who refuses to stop or slow down despite the screams of all his passengers.

Open night at the art museum but the 3yo wanted to play Batman, so we told him Joker was planning to rob the museum and he needed to investigate clues. He got so into it that he walked around with his lil notebook carefully documenting art he thought Joker might steal. Baby’s first museum sketching!

A friend of mine believes that when we die, we remember everything we did in our lives. Every moment, every little detail, every interaction with everyone we ever met, with perfect, crystalline clarity.
Whether that’s heaven or hell depends on us.
I think about that a lot these days.
