Lily is at her gym class this morning. I'm lurking in the corner with misty eyes. She sat down next to a shy girl. "Hi, my name is Lily. What's your name?" Shy responded, and Lily whispered, "I'll be your friend." And they both started to giggle. 😭🥺😊

[Jay Paranada @jayparanada]

This morning, Lily looked at me and said, "Daddy, when is YOUR MOM moving to her new house?" I couldn't help but laugh. She then said, "Well, you know what I mean, Daddy. She is your mom, right?!" Sassy three year old teenager. #lilybea #fatherhood

There wasn’t a gate agent at every entrance, and we were at the entrance at 43rd and 8th where there wasn’t a machine to buy a ticket. I spotted a ticket booth on the other side of the station, so not knowing any better, offered to open the “emergency exit” door...

[Jay Paranada @jayparanada]

Freedom. Hmmm.
In the fall of 2006, as a newly transplanted 22-year-old, in midtown Manhattan, I avoided arrest. My Black friend, who was with me, did not. He was handcuffed, detained and brought to the police station. We committed the same act of jumping the turnstile.

We were having a night out downtown to check out the gay scene in the village. Harmless activity. More info for context: The subways weren’t as advanced with ticketing.
