Hey DS106’ers! Let’s start off this blitz strong with an FU to those who are offended! Be bold everyone! Human emotion ‘Human emotion’ just emanates from this photograph, can’t you tell?

An unusual angle Circuit boards have always mystified … Continue reading Anti-DS106 Photoblitz

No one will understand this except for the true nerds. Here is the original assignment. Basically, the story behind this photograph is that I am a huge nerd.
