Children grow up in the blink of an eye. Every parent wishes at some point that they could look back on their child's infancy and hold onto it for just one more moment. Fortunately, Dutch filmmaker Frans Hofmeester had the foresight to plan for that. Beginning the week she was born in 1999, Hofmeester began taking short clips of his daughter and piecing them together into an unbelievable time-lapse journey through her childhood.

This is Hofmeester:

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
