Hi 💙🌝
Just some guy in Kent, UK.
Rocks out every now and again.
Kindly note there is no room for politics on social media. Far too many kittens.
Likes to like interesting, funny or good looking content- art, music, the outside world, jokes.

Yesterday, I was washing the car with my son. He said, 'Dad, can't you just use a sponge?'

"While many hyper-detailed illustrated and collaged album covers exist, this latest movement [is] rooted in photography. All cinematically lit and carefully composed like Crewdson’s work. These types of covers aren’t necessarily streaming-friendly, but make you stop as you scroll on social media."
