I’ve been somewhat neglectful of this particular outlet of mine. I guess I haven’t really been in the mindset for clever writing or showing off boxes in photo form? IDK. Anyway.

Ok, so I admit I’ve been a bit slack on this blog. I’ll defs have some cool stuff up here at some point, but in the meantime I thought it might be cool to plug my other little hobby project that’s my music youtube channel. You can find it at mickeyp.rocks and I’ve got a playlist of my anime covers that… Read more →
