How to make a baby

I found wedged behind an antique mirror in a flat in Dublin. I think it was done many years ago by a girl trying to work out the details of sex because she wasn’t taught it in school.

Toothy Toddler

This daycare has an odd definition of a “good day” when it involves attempted cannibalism. Picked up from a Costco parking lot.

No Stealing Babies

I was at a charity book sale a couple of years ago and came across this, tucked in a copy of Moby Dick. I was sort of disturbed by it. I just came across it in my wallet again, and figured I’d post it here.
