Introduction: I know why you are here
I know why you are here.
You are here because you are not one of the many, you are one of the few.
You appreciate the unconventional, the obscure, the strange.
You are not here because anyone made you come here. You came here because something caught your eye, something strange... and it excited you.
At worst, maybe you arrived here by accident. Maybe you clicked a wrong link or typed in the wrong URL.
At best, you came here on purpose because what is different delights you, inspires you, and makes you a better human.
You came here because you know that creativity will save the world, and craft will save your soul.
You came here because you stand in the face of mass-production and environmental degradation, and say, "Actually, no thanks".
You came here because in a world groaning with mundanity, you chose something different.
I am very glad that you made it here, and I truly hope that you enjoy what you find.
I hope that you feel perfectly at home being the gorgeous weirdo that you already are.
And above all, I hope that you feel inspired to create something of your own, and carry it forward as a gift to the world. The world needs your art.
