Gentle reminder that I like a lot of old things. If you're into Star Trek TOS/DS9, pre-code/classic Hollywood films, 70s - early 00s anime/manga, art nouveau and nifty fan art [both by myself and others], stick around!
I’ve had my ups and downs this year, but I’m super grateful for my friends and to be able to do what I love for a living. I couldn’t be doing this without ya’ll. Thank you so much and I hope y’all have a great new year! Love ya lots!
