Hello everyone, 1. I am not renewing my domain this year, so in a few days, I will be switching to mwfogleman.tumblr.com. If you’ve followed me on Tumblr, this shouldn’t affect you, but if you’re subscribing via RSS feed, you’ll need to switch that. 2. I have the domain until the eighteenth, but I’m switching early because I am starting POLYPHASIC SLEEP on Monday!...
