Middle Finger News Service – Of all the accomplishments of Helen Keller, the least known was her love of photography. Recently a small collection of work was auctioned off at an amazing price to an anonymous bidder. Included in the collection was one of the first known selfies, taken in 1923, and given to her teacher and mentor Anne Sullivan with a note written on back, “My hair must be a mess, such a windy day.”

Funny feces.
Sadly, her pornography collection didn’t sell at all. Apparently, not very many perverts read Braille…
