Hot take - I actually really like (most of) the new icons! FCP is probably the only one I don't love, the old one had way more personality.

I'm not going to be sharing any video depicting anybody being killed. But to be 100% clear - #fuckice, abolish ICE, impeach and remove Donald Trump and anyone from his administration involved in this murder.

Done with work for the rest of the year! Can’t wait to kick back and get some real work done on the @activas updates I’ve been teasing, and to revisit one of my favorite games of the Gamecube generation before moving onto MP4!
