Meet Red! The snarky enforcer who's likely to cause more trouble rather than resolve it.

I don't know if anyone needs to know this but I found out from a YouTube video description that Armin van Buuren composed the Trance track in Skylanders Imaginators and I'm literally losing my mind.

Why does that explain why I heard the "Ping Pong" melody LOL.

Finished picture from my last post. Poppie has been on my mind a lot lately

Took a break to draw Poppie! One of my beloved OCs. I also figured out how to do timelapses on clip studio.

YouTube died worldwide, let me go find a video on how to fix it.

Oh wait.

Discord family, don't fret. The server on Discord will still be a priority, but this is just an alternative in case Discord goes downhill following the news.

Following the news of Discord's age verification, I've decided to make my Stoat server public.

Come on down and join the Shapeshifter Hideout here!

Me during any other day: come on, when are the commercials gonna end?

Me during the Super Bowl: COME ON, WHEN ARE THE COMMERCIALS GONNA START?????

20 likes on this post and I'll consider dropping my art here more often.

So while I don't have any new tracks for a little bit (apologies), I figured I'd share something else just as a means to post, so uhhh....

Would anyone mind if I dropped artwork on this site? Here's some Y2K-style wallpapers I made using GIMP and Displacement X on Linux.

So unfortunately in terms of new music, I don't have anything really ready yet? So this may be a slow year so far, I do apologize.

However, for those who tuned into my radio broadcasts a few years ago, I think you're gonna like what I'm announcing soon. Maybe you might know what it is?

My friend @michaelwojcikmusic.bsky.social's label Radium (which I have a few releases on) now has a Bluesky and I'm helping moderating it.

If YOU are looking for dope new dance music for your listening pleasure, you know what to do!

Happy New Year! 🎊

Wishing all my Bluesky friends and family a Merry Christmas if they celebrate! To those who don't, I hope you have a peaceful and safe day off!

Today I decided I was sick of my same old homepage when I boot up Firefox, so I took matters into my own hands and cobbled up a new one with HTML and CSS.

I'm actually proud of this three-hour boredom project.

And yes, the Google Search box actually works. Crazy stuff LOL.
