moving to milwaukee was one of the best decisions I've ever made (see photos for proof)
Top photo (c. 2021): Selfie of a smiling person wearing a bright green bike helmet, standing in front of the red Milwaukee Pierhead Light on a cloudy day. The lighthouse is in the background along a pier with red railings. Bottom photo (c. 2024): Selfie of the same person, again wearing a bright green bike helmet, smiling in front of the Milwaukee Pierhead Light on a sunny day. The sky is bright blue and the water is calm, with more people visible walking on the pier.

so there's a tik tok trend to the song "Maps" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs that involves dancing to the lyrics "wait they don't love you like I love you" and my last hr class would not stop singing it so I played the song and would you believe they all sang along to that part

I also have a bad habit of trying to take pics of the sun on my way to work in the mornings
a sunrise seen from the interstate- the sky is covered in criss crossing grey clouds as the sun peeks above the concrete median and building in the background

I have noticed lol! I also fancy myself somewhat of a sunrise photographer (granted I don't have an actual camera aside from my phone)
The sun rises over the lake, creating an orange lens flare. In the path of the flare the silhouette of a bird in flight can be seen. In the foreground there is a jetty made of concrete and rebar.
