when there’s an old photograph, AND the guy in it is really old, it’s like, wow, that guy is super old
Conrad Heyer, photographed in 1852 at the age of 103. He was born in 1749 and is thought to be the earliest-born person ever photographed.

Other leading candidate for oldest person photographed
Named Caesar, he was photographed around the same time but possibly was as much as a decade older; but as he was enslaved, the records were fragmentary. He’d been a free man for ten years when this photo was taken.
so, this is something i’ve noticed in fandom spaces and want to see how people ~generally~ feel regarding genderbends & genderswaps, especially if they are transgender themselves!

And sit unseen, with only the inner upheld Your reflection can’t offer a word To the bliss of not knowin’ yourself With all mirrorin’ gone from the world
Still the mind, rejectin’ this new empty space Fills it with somethin’ or someone No closer could I be to God Or why he would do what he’s done

Although your bright and light […] You arrived to me like nightfall, you come like nightfall You and I sort of mixed together You and I metamorphosized So that same idea of you can’t see where one begins and where one ends that, that is some kind of metamorphosis of some kind]
