One way I avoid treating film too precious is finishing the roll the same day I load it (6x7 helps here)

That's why I look for @tamslick.bsky.social shooting photos of me shooting

Another. You can't *quite* make out it's Jonah Jameson, but it's much more clear it's a dead dollar store.

Getting closer though!

I'm actually working on a photo project where I take celebratory photos of closed/closing stores 😀

No, I will not bemoan the death of dollar stores--it's like getting sad the cancerous tumor is going away

The ET thing was pushed after Roswell as an intentional disinformation campaign (there were people that got into "trouble" for this).

And it seems you can just spin people up with it ever since. Also mole people. Moon deniers.

But a real conspiracy, right out in the open? Nah, *that* one is fake

Because this was from a quick scan with my phone, this is a bit like measuring with a micrometer and marking with chalk
