FUCK YOU, apple.

horse just spent his whole fucking paycheck on an iphone, too bad his huge-ass hooves can't hit the fucking keys. all alone, with no way to call for help. shit.

I like spirit animals. mine, moths. if you haven't noticed, this is a fox.

cut-paper-craft

So, I've decided to embark on the wonderful world of cut-paper. time-consuming and unnecessary. but i think its quite nice. I started and finished the oil tanker tonight. The igloo I made within the last couple of weeks. They are both part of a larger collection or story, something that will be created in the future.
