A.i.J.i. 1.0
Released! :

Album 1.0 has
been released!
It's on Bandcamp,
itch.io,
Gumroad,
Spotify,
and
Apple
Music,
Also available
to ALL
supporting
Patrons on Patreon!
Thank you for
supporting
this musical
hobby side
project :)
A bunch more
music will be
released over
the next year
as I have
things planned
up to around
September-October
2026.
(I've written
A LOT of songs
over the last
20 years)

New
Project! A.i.J.i. :

Today I posted
“Wrath of the
Squirrels” a
song I wrote
and put
together with
A.I. music.
AI!? WHAT!?
Yep, AI has
gotten crazy,
and it's not
going
anywhere. So
with this in
mind,
MUSIC!!!! I
generally
don't have a
ton of time to
record music,
though I still
write out
songs when I
can. The
problem I've
always had
with making
music is
getting a full
band together.
Someone was
always
working, not
in the mood,
sold their
instruments
for rent and
so on. If
you've ever
tried to make
music with
people,
scheduling is
a nightmare,
and as folks
get older, it
gets worse.
However I
continued to
write and play
and record
over the
years,
churning out a
total of 8
albums of
angsty solo
acoustic
music.
Unfortunately,
it never had
that full band
feel that I
always wanted.
So decades
went by and I
tell you
honestly, I
was just about
to toss all my
lyrics to
everything in
the public
domain because
I've been so
frustrated not
being able to
do anything
with them,
merely because
of that human
factor. AI,
whether you
like it or
not, came
along and was
like “Bro! I
got you!”. So
finally, after
decades, I can
be unhindered
by needing an
actual band
who can never
meet to play
for an hour a
week.
So moving
forward, I've,
of course, set
rules for
myself
1: I have to
write the
lyrics. Yeah,
one can use AI
to generate
lyrics that
are adequate,
but they wont
mean anything
to me. If it
doesn't mean
anything to
me, why
bother. Then
it's just
noise. As
songs roll
out, you'll
see what I
mean. Look for
the song
“SPEAK” when
it's released.
If that
doesn't move
you in some
sort of way,
then this
project will
probably not
be for you.
2: I have to
LIKE it. For
all the songs
I've been
generating
with my
lyrics, like 2
percent are to
my liking. If
I don't enjoy
listening to
it. I'm not
releasing it.
3: Not take
things TOO
seriously.
Again, this is
a hobby for
me, and is
fulfilling a
creative
avenue I
haven't had
the
opportunity to
explore in
years. With
these tools I
can create
some fun
Squirrel Songs
for people,
make theme
songs for the
Twitch stream,
and have
random goofy
songs that are
just funny.
4:
Persona : I'm
all about
creating
characters,
and A.i.J.i.
& The BoTs
Will be that
as well. Why?
Because
honestly, I
generally
don't like
picking at the
scabs
emotionally
when it comes
to music, so
having a
different
voice or
character sing
those back to
me has given
me a healthy
approach to
music again,
being able to
appreciate the
words I've
written
without
getting SO
emotionally
involved with
it. I
generally
don't listen
to my own
recorded
music, even 20
years later,
as it was a
fairly dark
time in my
life that I
don't like
revisiting. So
this format
just makes it
more
validating to
me and keeps
my emotional
involvement at
an arms length
distance. I
can look at
all that work
that went
largely
ignored and
say, “Well, at
least
something did
something with
it.”, and on
an emotional
level, it's
very
fulfilling.
Again,
literally
everything I
created as far
as personal
music was
destined for
trash. At
least A.I. can
be the band
everyone was
too lazy or
busy to be a
part of over
the last 20
plus years.
So with all
that being
said,
hopefully
you'll enjoy
what's put
out. Going
through the
archives
recently, over
the years I've
written about
250 songs.
Those who kept
up with the
“Jonathan Ian”
albums, you'll
recognize some
of the songs,
but a large
portion were a
ton of never
recorded
songs,
scribbled
ideas I've
recently
fleshed out,
and doing all
that
definitely
activated a
part of my
brain that's
been dormant
for a bit. So
I've written
some new songs
that will
probably roll
out before the
older songs.
So keep an eye
out for those.
Also, for
those who
don't like
A.I., again,
it's not going
anywhere. And
it's not like
I can hire
real musicians
anyway.
(They're
expensive and
out of my
price range).
This is just a
side hobby for
my own
personal
musical
enjoyment that
I decided to
share with
everyone.
Songs will be
made available
to all tiers
of Patreon,
but will also
be on Bandcamp,
Itch
& Gumroad
for those who
want to
support this
hobby. Or you
can just watch
on YouTube
:)
And yes, I'm
still making
Foamy
cartoons.
(Always have
to say that
every time I
try something
new. Somehow
people think
I'll just stop
working on
Foamy any time
I deviate from
what I
normally do
for some
reason)

Decided
to update the
style of the
series once
again. Seems
to always be a
work in
progress. This
time around I
went back to
the larger eye
design folks
are used to as
they're more
expressive
than the
little dots I
had in
previous
cartoons. I've
also decided
to mix up the
backgrounds a
bit, making
them more
simplified and
similar to the
"Island
Series" or
"Chibi
Series". The
simpler
backgrounds
help the
character pop
out a bit more
as they felt
like they were
getting a bit
lost in the
previous
backgrounds.
We'll see how
things move
forward. At
this point, I
like to keep
things simple
and efficient
due to IRL
stuff.
What IRL
stuff? Well,
the last 6
years,
especially
2024, I've
been dealing
with some
health stuff.
So it's been a
bit of a
struggle
keeping on top
of everything
as I tend to
have random
pains due to
being overly
dedicated to
the series, so
I've been
going to
physical
therapy and
trying to get
myself in a
working order.
Assuming P.T.
helps, I can
hopefully get
back to a more
comfortable
work
situation.
(And yes, new
episodes have
been posted
every other
week and will
continue to do
so.) I'm good
like that :)
For
those who
haven't been
keeping up,
it's
definitely
been an uphill
struggle, be
it health,
finances,
issues with
YouTube or
other
platforms. It
never seems to
end and though
the series
keeps getting
buried under
an ocean of
other content,
I keep at it,
because folks
have been
continuing to
support it! So
again, THANK
YOU! Thank you
for keeping up
with the
series, or
just putting
up with my
"artsy style
changes" every
so often. It's
greatly
appreciated
and it's one
of the reasons
I keep working
so hard on all
this.
SPREAD
THE WORD!!!

New
Mini Comic (FREE!):
Made
a new mini
comic for all!
Featuring
Lucretia
Darkmoore!
Yeah, I
haven't had
the
opportunity to
put her in the
series yet,
and she was
kinda pushed
to the
background for
the "Island
Series" comic,
but hopefully,
I'll be able
to get some
more stories
with her out
there when I
can. Possibly
a spin-off
comic series.
Who knows if
I'll have the
time.
Unfortunately
still on the
mend from a
number of
things and
sitting in
front of a
computer 14
hours a day
doesn't help,
So I'm trying
to adjust
work-life
stuff.
Meanwhile...
the comic is
on
GUMROAD :
ITCH.IO
&
Patreon!
Thanks to
everyone who's
been
supportin'!
Enjoy!

23
Years of Foamy!!:
You're
the one's
keeping things
going!
You're the
glue that
keeps the raft
of Foamy
afloat in the
turbulent
waters of
sustainability!
You are the
duct tape
holding things
together!
You too can be
duct tape!
Support where
you can and
let's keep
this going!
If you're
already
supporting,
THANK
YOU!!!!!!
Spread the
word of Foamy!
'Cause
sometimes
things are
around so
long, we all
just forget
they're still
there :o

Physical
Board Game!:
"Save
Pum'Kin
Guy!!!" is now
a physical
board game on
GAMECRAFTERS
Enjoy!
Also, when the
Foamy card
game comes
out, it will
probably be on
this site as
well. For
those who
don't
know
GAMECRAFTERS
they're a
print-on-demand
board game,
card game
company that
does some
pretty good
work. So
rather than
get mired down
in a whole
Kickstarter, I
figure it
might just be
easier to do
it this way?
Idk. We'll see
what happens
with the card
game when I
get to that
point.

More
Changes!? Yep! :
Yeah,
I get bored
honestly.
After working
on the same
series for
over 20 years,
if I don't
keep things
interesting
for myself,
there's really
no point.
Besides, the
“new” art
style is
really an
“old” art
style that
pre-dates the
Foamy series
by a few
years. I use
to doodle a
lot of odd
little comic
strips about
talking cats
and stuff like
that, but it
was a super
simple type of
art style that
was just easy
and fun to do.
And
that's kinda
what I need
right now.
With the
internet being
such a toxic
place
mentally, I
just want to
take a step
back from it
all. The inane
bickering
about
nonsense, the
infighting,
name calling,
crap posting,
the whole
reactionary,
“look at me”
culture, is
exceedingly
tedious to
even glance at
for me at this
point.
So,
with all that
in mind, the
“BiTs” series
is basically
just a chill
approach to
everything.
The new
version of
Germaine is
somewhat of an
overhaul.
She's more
“together”, a
bit more
focused on
what she needs
to do with her
life and
rather than
the perpetual
trauma dumps
and constantly
fighting with
Foamy, I'll
have them work
together like
they did in
the early
comics, before
anything was
even animated.

On
the topic of
trauma
dumping, it
has become so
commonplace,
that all the
inner turmoil
of Germaine is
considered
“normal” by
your everyday
person. And if
your average
person is THAT
miserable.
Something
needs to
change.
Besides,
Germaine was
never suppose
to be
“normal”.
She's not your
average
person. So if
your average
person is an
oversensitive,
trauma
dumping,
whiner,
Germaine will
not be.
However,
Germaine will
always have a
touch of
darkness about
her, as that
tends to never
leave you
regardless of
your ups,
downs or age,
but she's
going to be
more focused
about it.
Using that
“society
sucks”
attitude to
work hard to
get the hell
away from it.
Foamy
will be Foamy,
but rather
than bickering
with Germaine
about her “woe
is me”
attitude,
he'll be
working with
her, getting
idiots out of
her way and
helping out
when he can.
Yes,
there will
still be
rants, but
rather than
focusing on
cancel
culture,
emotionally
underdeveloped
morons, and
the perpetual
hypocrisy
that's NEVER
going to
change in
society, Foamy
is just going
to focus on
the daily
idiocy of your
daily morons.
Foamy yelling
into the void
about how
idiotic
society has
become really
hasn't changed
anything. I've
watched it for
20 years. It
hasn't
changed. Will
it ever?
Probably not.
So why have
Foamy try to
“enlighten”
the masses
with a simple
“be logical”
message when
logic and
truth have
become
subjective
terms based on
one's feelings
or beliefs.
“I
feel this way!
So I'm right!”
Yeah.
Doesn't work
that way. But
no one wants
to hear that
as it goes
against their
feelings, so
they get mad,
throw tantrums
and we all end
up fighting
over something
we shouldn't
be fighting
about in the
first place.
So Foamy &
Germaine are
basically
going to
approach
society like
dust on their
shoulder.
Brushing it
aside every so
often when it
becomes a
nuisance.
I think we kinda all
need to do that with
the various toxic
people we encounter
daily. We need to
get away from the
echo-chambers of
validation we all
get stuck in. If we
never do, they'll
never be growth,
because we never
experience anything
new. Be it emotions,
situations or
thoughts. So the
“BiTs” series will
be an example of
that. Germaine
moving beyond all
the B.S. of the
world with Foamy by
her side. Trying to
just block out the
poisonous people of
the world and living
the best they can. A
lot of people don't
know how to do that
anymore, and I
think, if we can't
really change the
world, we can at
least change the
parameters in which
it effects us. So,
let's have some fun!
Foamy & Germaine
have been carrying
around that big bag
of angst on their
backs for decades.
Why have it weigh
them down when they
can swing it wildly
at morons!
Oh yeah, there's
also a free
printable mini comic
on
GUMROAD :
ITCH.IO
&
Patreon!
Enjoy!

New
Comic!!! :
Yeah,
it took awhile
since I've
been laid up,
but issue
number 2 of
the
Neurotically
Yours "Island
Series" comic
is now
on
GUMROAD
and ITCH.IO!
Also
available to
the $5 and up
supporters on
Patreon!
(Check Patron
only Posts).
So enjoy, and
thank you!
(Also, I'll be
updating some
stuff in the
"BiTs" series
over the next
month, and I
kinda have an
idea of what I
want to do
with it. So
expect a few
changes here
and there)

Still
Alive! :
Yep,
it's been a
while since I
posted here,
but I've been
running
around, trying
to get
everything
done before
surgery, had a
surgery, and
now, as of
this post, I'm
recovering
from the
surgery. So,
medically
moving forward
I need to find
a balance
between
working on
Foamy stuff
and fitting in
some sort of
physical
activity. I've
been working
on Foamy for
over 20 years,
at a desk, not
moving for
12-14 hours a
day. It's not
healthy, and
before it
catches up to
me, even more,
I REALLY need
to do stuff.
What
does that mean
for Foamy? Not
much will
change,
cartoons
should roll
out as usual,
and there may
be a few more
"Bits"
episodes
tossed into
the mix, or
just a handful
of shorter
episodes from
time to time.
But that all
depends on
what NEEDS to
be said in a
cartoon and
where my state
of mind is.
There's going
to be episodes
where Foamy
rants for 6
minutes, and
they'll be
just some
goofy episodes
that are just
utter fun
nonsense.
(Again trying
to find a
healthy
balance.)
What
about Twitch
Streams? I'll
be doing them
as usual, and
would actually
like to work
more streams
into the week,
but again,
that's sitting
or standing at
a desk for
hours. Not
moving. It
kinda sucks
for me
physically.
Unfortunately,
I don't have a
bunch of
people I can
hand off other
work to, nor
can I afford
to, (Thanks
YT), So things
will get done,
when they get
done, but not
at the expense
of my health.
So,
moving
forward.
Cartoons
SHOULD be
posted as
usual, streams
as usual, and
basically I
will TRY to
maintain what
I've been
doing all
these years,
but there will
be days when
my body is
just going to
scream
"MOVE!!!", and
I'll have to
do that.
So as usual,
everyone THANK
YOU!
Thank you for
supporting
during the ups
and downs,
health scares,
manic life
stuff and all
the assorted
IRL junk that
tries to
derail one's
life. I'm
still able to
do this stuff
because people
have been
gracious,
generous and
supportive
during those
ups and downs.
Can't say it
enough, your
support is
appreciated
and keeps
things going
when most
platforms just
don't want it
to. :)

Notes
on the 'Bits' Series :
For
those who have been following for
years or days, you may or may not
know, I tend to change things up
every few years just to keep things
interesting for everyone and myself.
So
Neurotically Yours 'Bits' is just
that, another version of the series
that's going to be a bit more fun
than the usual stuff. It'll have a
derpy style similar to the Island
Series, and episodes should be
shorter but, posted weekly,
hopefully, and just be short fun
bits or observations.
Why?
'Cause it's good to try something
new instead of just doing the same
thing over and over. (Also I've
kinda crippled myself working 14
hour days for 20 years sitting at a
desk, so it'll help balance out
recovering from decades of physical
atrophy)
Aside
from that, just have fun with it.
If
you're wondering
what's going to happen
with the current
series, that'll be
around as well. So
when certain
topics/rants need a
venue, that's where
they'll be. Other than
that, back to work!
Let's see what
happens!

digital
download
on
GUMROAD
and ITCH.IO,
So there ya
go! No
subtitles yet,
but I'm
working on it.
Other than
that, tons of
work as usual.

Work
as Usual :
Just
a random
update that
stuff is going
along as
usual. New
Foamy episode
every 2 weeks,
Pum'Kin Guy
streams
on TWITCH,
twice a week,
and random
Steve streams
on TWITCH,
or YouTube.
Finishing the
second comic
has been a
slow roll as
the last
quarter of the
year tends to
be extra busy,
but it'll get
done when it
gets done, as
will the card
game. So
that's about
it. Been
overworking
myself as
usual, but
having fun
doing it :) |

Random
Update! & Twitch
Stuff! :
For
those who may
have missed
stuff, I've
been
experimenting
with some
Vtuber stuff
in the form of
a 500 year old
vampire named
Steve on
TWITCH,
Why? 'Cause
it's something
different.
Steve is
fairly lo-key
as far as
personality
goes, similar
to the
4y-Records
guy. Somewhat
sarcastic in a
deadpan sort
of way, but
generally
tries to have
a good time.
The back story
is, he's been
asleep for 30
years and his
caretaker
"Gora" has
woken him up
so he can
touch base
with humanity,
which she does
every 30 years
or so. So far
he's had a job
at a maid
cafe, with
some other
places of
employment
planned for
the future,
but it's
generally all
just a goofy
side project
to have fun
with. For
those
interested,
there's been a
bunch of clips
in the usual
places
like,
FaceBook,
Twitter,
Instagram,
YouTube,
& TikTok.
I took a break
from the Foamy
The Squirrel
Card Game, but
yes, it's
still a thing!
One of the
online shops I
use for Foamy
stuff, TEESPRING,
has changed
it's name to SPRING
for some
reason, but
has been
integrated
into Instagram,&
YouTube,
so I've been
posting some
stuff there,
that's been
available on GUMROAD,
ITCH.IO,
BANDCAMP,
AMAZON
& DESIGNBYHUMANS,
so hopefully
that might be
easier for
people? No
idea.
Other than that,
it's work as
usual. The next
issue of
Neurotically Yours
Island Series has
been a slow roll,
but it is being
worked on. New
Foamy episodes are
posted as usual on
YouTube, so catch
up if you've
missed stuff. Also
picking away at
some new music,
but nothing worth
mentioning quite
yet. Foamy
podcasts are
posted every week
and I've been
making some "audio
comics" from the
"island series"
comic for folks.
The actual Island
series has been
hit or miss with
folks. (Some don't
care for the style
apparently.) but
there's a few more
episodes in the
works, but chances
are I'll just put
everything in the
comic and keep
going with that.
Who knows. I'm
fickle :)

Foamy
Card Game!? :
For
those not
keeping up
with news
on FaceBook,
Twitter,
Instagram,
YouTube,
& Patreon,
I've been
working on a
Foamy The
Squirrel Card
Game!
Essentially
it's a goofy
take on Magic
The Gathering
with some odd
mechanics
thrown in to
make it both a
challenging
single &
multiplayer
game.
62 Cards have
been created
so far and
there's some
testing and
tweaking that
needs to be
done. But it's
coming along.
Also will be
slowly rolling
out the HD
Seasons of the
original
Neurotically
Yours series
on GUMROAD,
ITCH.IO
.
I'd like to
make them
available on
Amazon &
YouTube, but
YouTube wont
allow certain
episodes (even
for sale) and
Amazon
requires
subtitles,
which I don't
have due to
the series
being mostly
improv. So
we'll see what
happens. Some
folks wanted
to help out
and create
subtitles
after release,
so hopefully
that will be a
thing at some
point.

New
Music! &
The Socials!
During
the 20 year of
Foamy
retrospective
I WAS
going to put
together, I
dug up a bunch
of old doodles
&
characters
from the early
days of Foamy!
One of those
characters was
"Lucretia
Darkmoore",
who was going
to be in the
original
Neurotically
Yours series
around season
4, but never
quite made it
in there. So,
for the comic
book I'm
working on, I
brought her
back to be
sort of,
Germaine's
"Goth
Obi-Wan", as
Germaine has
sort of gone
off the rails
in recent
years. So she
may not make
it into the
animated
series, but
she's going to
be in the
comics. With
all that being
said. that
rediscover of
the character
somehow
inspired a
whole album of
dark
electronic
music. Which
sets the tone
for the
character
fairly well.
She's dark.
Focused and
doesn't take
crap from
anyone. She
swims in the
dark waters of
her own
emotions but
doesn't drown
in them like
Germaine seems
to. So, there
ya go. The
album is
on
::
SPOTIFY ::
& the
usual
streaming
services, it's
also in BANDCAMP,
GUMROAD,
ITCH.IO
and is
available to
download for
Patrons on Patreon,
so enjoy &
thanks for
supporting!
On
a side note, I
will be taking
a break from
social media.
I'll post work
as usual, but
apparently
I've been
grinding my
teeth to dust
due to stress,
so I'm cutting
out some of
those
stressful
sources where
I can. So if I
miss an "At"
or mention,
tweet or post,
I apologize. I
kinda need my
teeth though.
Not sure about
everyone else,
but the last 2
years have
been a hellish
time watching
society divide
themselves,
and as angsty
as my content
is at times, I
kinda just
want people to
get along, be
well, and help
each other
out. Delving
into the feeds
of society
just gives me
a hopeless
view of the
world, and no
one needs that
right now. So
if you're
feeling the
same way. Take
a break.
Mental health
and all that.
:)

20
Years of FOAMY!!!! :
Yep,
it's
been 20 years
of Foamy! On
this day,
September 10th,
2001. The very
first
Neurotically
Yours comic
was published!
Cartoons soon
followed, 20
years passed
and there ya
go. I
generally
don't do a
bunch of
celebrating
due to the
following day
being Sept
11th, but I
don't want to
overlook
everyone who
has supported
over the
years. Some
for the full
20! So
honestly, this
milestone is
more about
Foamy fans,
not about me
or Dawn. If
there weren't
folks
supporting
this, it would
be a lot
harder for
Dawn & I
to keep things
going.
(Probably
impossible.)
So thank you
everyone for
the support.
Be it merch,
donations,
goodies, or
simply
spreading the
world, sharing
episodes or
comic strips.
Every bit has
helped. And
generally...
the best way
for me to
thank
people... is
to... GET BACK
TO WORK!!!!
C'mon! Can't
start slackin'
now!

MORE
NEW "Music"! &
Random News :
"Pilz-E"
made some more
music!
It's on
::
SPOTIFY ::
& the
usual
streaming
services, it's
also in BANDCAMP,
and will be
given out to
Patrons on Patreon.
Enjoy!
In other news,
I'm still
working on
both the
"Island"
series of
Foamy &
the current
"Sketch"
series,
alternating
between the
two. The
island series
is a slow roll
so far as I'm
still setting
up some
backstory.
Yeah, I could
just post a
short story of
what's
happening and
why, but I
like folks to
discover
things as the
series
progresses.
(Assuming they
stick around
that long).
Generally a
lot of
Germaine's
character
development
and issues
just got lost
along the way
during her
"Dark Years"
back in the
day. So I'm
probably not
gonna make
that same
mistake, as
Sue Z. June is
just more
stable than
Germaine was.
New characters
will start
popping up,
like "Bean" in
the newly
posted episode
"Coffee
Flavors", and
some older
characters
will show up
at some point
as well.
Hopefully
creating an
odd little
island of
misfits with a
hint of "what
the hell is
happening
here" - type
atmosphere.
Foamy for the
island series
oddly seems to
be delving
into that Zen
of Anger state
that's been
mentioned for
years. He's
fairly fed up
with humanity
and has no
interest in
saving it, let
alone wasting
his time
spreading his
squirrelly
logic to those
who don't
listen. So
we'll see how
that goes. The
current
episode I'm
working on, he
just orders a
bunch of
pizza... so
yeah.
Foamy has been
neck deep in
internet BS
for 20 years.
He's pretty
much seen the
cycle repeat
weekly and is
opting out of
the human
idiocy, the
click bait,
the
misinformation
and everything
that comes
with the
internet of
things.
Honestly, it's
just a lot of
unfocused
angry people
ruining each
other's lives
and creating
drama where
there doesn't
need to be. So
the "Island
Series" is an
attempt by
Foamy to just
get away from
all that crap,
and hopefully
help folks see
the benefits
of stepping
away
from the
whirlwind of
toxicity the
internet
offers.
"But
What about the
rants!?" -
There's still
the current
series of
Foamy that
addresses a
lot of human
idiocy. So
don't worry
too much. Stop
stressin'.
Listen to some
music &
ignore the
world for a
bit.

NEW
SERIES?! :
2020
was a crap year, but I used that
"stay the hell inside" time to
create another Foamy series for
some reason. Why!? 'Cause
frankly. Foamy has zero faith in
humanity at this point. For all
the rants he's done over the
years, pointing out hypocrisy,
idiocy and all around lack of
common sense, people just kept
getting dumber. Like.... scary
stupid. While the early episodes
were goofy, and Foamy was more
of a toxic Eric Cartman (South
Park) type, Foamy eventually
moved passed his cartoony angst
and ventured into a more George
Carlin arena of angry logical
observations about humanity.
With no one really listening to
Foamy and people just getting
increasingly more irrational and
emotionally unstable, Foamy's
next logical step, is to just
give up on people and keep the
hell away from them. Or at the
very least, find ones that don't
tick him off. So that's part of
the angle here with the new
series. Foamy is tired of trying
to help people with logical
observations when no one
listens, so he's moved on and
tracked down Sue Z. June, who
opted out of society a long time
ago for the same reasons.
I'm not sure how many episodes
I'll create, but the series will
be more lighthearted in a way. I
have a bunch of new characters I
want to add, stories I want to
work on, and all that. Hopefully
consolidating everything I've
worked on into one series. So
with any luck, 4y-Records will
be a part of the series, Dia
& Tofu, Pum'Kin Guy &
maybe even Minion's Quest. But
who knows. I could do 3
episodes, could do 100. It's
hard to say, but it'll be fun to
see what happens. Thanks for
hangin' in there while I fiddle
with things. And yes, I'm still
working on the current series.
And the podcast. And the Twitch
streams. And trying to post all
the older material in HD on
Newgrounds ('Cause it's not
"allowed" on YouTube). Oh, and I
have to make some merch too.
Some new shirts, Mugs &
Stickers were added to Amazon
& DesignByHumans,
so take a look if you like.
