If you DON'T see me online much for the rest of 2012, there's a good reason for that I'm not telling any of you about....

More than likely you won't see me online much because I'm brooding. In some ways I am the most emo, of emos.

Though I have built an enormous empire of media, art, and technology out of nothing, even I miss how things....used to be. Despite my success and immense power, things felt better when I HADN'T grown up enough to make my family resent the adult me.

Fan Trivia about my YouTube channel: Nearly all of the "retro content" on my channel was hand picked by me. All the songs, TV shows, and music songs, albums, and anime and animation and clips that existed before YouTube, but made it into my favorites section in the present, was based on the experiences and visions in 90s, 80s, and early 2000s media and video that moved me on a personal level as a wayward youth, as a child, or as an adolescent. I found the most truth in escaping to an alternate universe built up and stored in my mind and memory, lingering in a favorite alternative rock album or anime VHS tape or something. That was where the real inspiration for my brand of YouTube lies. In the emotions I got from the past, not the empire I built in the present. Sometimes the past DOES build the bridge to the future. Even if that one video doesn't make sense now, it meant a HELL of a lot to me at the time, the first time I saw it in real life, not online.

Take care. And Be Good to one another, for goodness sake.
