Baby

Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?

My baby doll. Small, bald, made of hard plastic. She had painted hair when I first got her. I still have her. We have been through a lot together. Her painted blue eyes are fading. Her head is yellowing with age. It’s the only original part of her, as her arms and legs have been replaced, even her torso. She needs a new(er) left leg. It keeps falling off, and there is a hole in her foot. Yet, she is still with me. I love that bit of plastic baby doll. It’s weird, I know, but I don’t care. I’m going to keep her for as long as she holds together or for as long as I can find or make replacement parts. I worry about her eyes. I have nightmares that she gets broken and cracked beyond repair. Then I wake up, and thankfully, she is still there.

Political Views

How have your political views changed over time?

For a writing prompt:

Over time, I have only gotten more liberal over time. Personally, my values lean conservative as far as morals go, but I do not care what other people do or wanna do. You can not legislate morals. Certainly, I am not a conservative financially. Religion?– I don’t believe in it. I think it should stay out of government and politics.

I have always voted for Democrats. Seems like that is the party closer to my values. I would never vote Republican. Never say never, but I really could never stand Republican politics, and they have only gotten worse. They have never been conservative unless it comes to helping someone else besides themselves. I never really could stand Republicans– Reagan really fucked us– but now I really can’t stand Republicans, or the party of Trump. They are the worst.
