It is good taste, and good taste alone, that possesses the power to sterilize and is always the first handicap to any creative functioning.

Apologies for the frequent absence of this blog. I could blame it on the fact that the tumblr app stopped working on my phone, but honestly I’ve just been busy & I’ve moved my procrastination habits over to instagram. Someday I will actually use the queue feature. Until then, I’ll proceed with these obnoxious post dumps at 11pm. Sorry y’all.
