New Year's Update (and disgusting new Oreo video)
🕑 Added 2025-01-01 07:16:05 +0000 UTCHowdy Pardnerrs,
Hope you're having a good New Year's. And if you're not...well, here's a video which will hopefully make it even worse.
I travelled to the USA to keep working in-person with Kat on the plagiarism distribution project, since we wanted to minimize the chance I made a massive mistake while left to my own devices and emailed all the money into a big hole. While I was there, we realised there were American Oreo products we missed during the Oreo video, so we took it upon us to bring another crime into the world.
But more importantly, I'm happy to announce that as of a week or so ago, we're distributing the Plagiarism video's ad revenue to the many people who were plagiarised by a certain YouTuber. In fact, there's another ten people I am supposed to send money to immediately after posting this, so I should make this quick.
This has been the most complicated and difficult thing we've ever done. Combing through dozens and dozens of deleted YouYube videos, trying to track down authors and figure out how to even contact half of them, trying to prove we're not scammers...seriously, making videos was easy in comparison. Without Kat's help and expertise I'm sure I would have messed it up. I'm so thankful to have such a good collaborator, and friend, helping me with this, because I really don't know how I could have done it otherwise. Kat has been a presence in my videos for the past five years, but this year she saved my life, and I'm only barely kidding when I put it like that. Thank you so much, Kat, for everything. Please remember to invoice me more often.
And thank you. Thanks to your support, I was able to spend a long time making a stupid internet video, and then spend even longer giving its ad revenue away, and not feel like I was throwing away the success, or fear abandonment from my audience for taking the time. I got to do the right thing, and I got to do it right, and I can't express in words how much that means. I cried a little bit writing this, and I'm not afraid to admit it.
The next video, Adobe Must Die: The Rise of Open Source (better name pending), will hopefully be done enough soon that you'll be seeing pieces of it in the near future, but the final stages of the plagiarism project took longer than I expected, so sorry about that.
This year has been extremely productive for me. That sounds like a lie! I haven't released a public video to the channel this year! And yet the stuff I've worked on has been some of the most exciting stuff I've ever done, and I've developed so many skills as part of making the upcoming videos that I feel like a completely different person from who I was 365 days ago. There may well come a day when you say to yourself "Oh, that's what he was doing all this time. I thought he was lying. That's egg on my face."
Here's to the egg,
Harry.

Well, now I need the bisexual flag towel with my entire soul.

i love how most of this is just tasting stuff and wondering if products are The Same and if local chemistry changes to recipes so that chocolate won't melt too fast count as Different, and then suddenly it's "OMG GET YOUR GRAPHIC IDENTITY TOGETHER AND MAKE EVERYONE RESPECT IT. RESPECT YOURSELF. IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT BLUE AND WHITE! THE TEXT SHOULD BE *BLACK* AND WHITE!!" lovely~ (yes i studied graphic design can u tell ^^° )

I would like a towel

I don't know what the point of these videos were, but I know that I have now bought an oreo milka, a thing I never would have done prior to watching 4 hours of this

Please, Mr HBomb, just give us an update already! I'm not even asking for the video, just tell us how things are coming along?

Super late but if one of those beach towels are still around, I’d love to buy one
Lyra Orsinov
Very glad that I finally paid for the patreon and watched this so i can have definitive proof that hbomb could literally post anything and i would enjoy it

Ok I've watched this video like 4 times now and I'm adding to the list of people who need one of those bisexual towels. Like I'm begging you

Don't fat shame yourself, friend! This internet person finds you absolutely cuddle shaped (respectfully).

Side note: I'm currently developing teaching materials on UI design and found out that one of the main principles of good UI design is controllability, i.e. the software should not override user decisions. Has anyone tried highlighting part of a word in MS Office recently? In review mode it's so bad that I once karate chopped the table in anger so hard that my hand hurt for several weeks.
Anita Karsa
I saw jackfilms' video with Harry a few days ago where he mentioned that his next big project is on how Adobe (and most current software) sucks. I can't wait to watch an 8-hour long video validating all my hatred!

If you don’t post a new video this summer I’m going to start calling you Harris again

Hey guys, I noticed that HBomber left a comment on this vid a month ago saying his next vid may be on a similar topic. Maybe check it out, could be a good primer for the next vid whenever it comes - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4mdMMu-3fc

Hello Mr H bOMB, I have been a fan of yours for 9 years. I remember I started teaching middle school as a leftist in a deeply conservative US state, and your debunks helped me ward off the stupidity. I really like your games journalism and cultural criticism. Even now, 9 years later, I find myself listening to old HBOMBER LIE videos for comfort / background noise. Last night, as I played magic the gathering for two hours, I did a little listen through of the Tommy video (did you know he made the music for the table top tcg MTG his mother is proud) My birthday is this weekend, and I am praying to the leftist gods that you drop a surprise video. That would be neat. Also, I think you’re handsome. Thank you!! Have a great day!! Kisses
Alexander Manson
I need one of those t-shirts. please don't ask why
Mo Scheibling
The gig of being supported because people enjoy what you do? Yeah, that is sweet and I am happy he takes as much time as he needs. The last videos were pretty well worth it and have provided me personally with days worth of entertainment and knowledge.

Seems the Patreon is dead as well. What a nice gig.

As a lifelong Houstonian who's had 30 years to get accustomed to seeing Houston Methodist billboards everywhere and come to associate that name with a major medical institution, it never occurred to me how bizarre it sounds to people not familiar with it! It does sound like you're getting medical advice from a random church somewhere, haha.

Chocolate does indeed keep worse and melt easier for the same reason it tastes awful outside of Europe, they use preservatives that make it taste like vomit to anybody who has standards

Goo vs Cream: wasn't there an entire thing about Oreo not calling their filling Cream, because it doesn't contain any dairy and they'd be on shaky legal ground if they called it cream?
ToastCrossDimensions
If there is any chance you still have those towels, I would love to get one for my friend. She would love it.
Gaoth gwyntog
yes pleease!

I've run into the cookie/biscuit problem before and come to a conclusion that I find satisfying. Cookie and biscuit are overlapping terms : there are a few kinds of biscuit that Americans likely wouldn't call cookies - mainly the less sweet digestives I think? Then there are cookies that are NOT biscuits, usually giant puffy things sometimes with candies and stuff on them. We have a word in Irish for biscuit (briosca) and it is a point of contention whether that is appropriate to use for this cookie non-biscuit category. The third category are things that are biscuits and cookies - the word used reflects just a dialect difference. The biscuit part of oreos definitely falls in this category, and I think whole oreos are also in this category. Let me know what you all think of this!
ppppp
Hi Harry, its grandpa.. hope you're doing well
Conor McLaughlin
have your Cane and Abel Goo
Conor McLaughlin
((oh god here we go again)) : I'm a pastry chef and baker, just want to say that the biscuit cookie paradigm you're aiming toward doesn't cover it, between madeleines to me at least closer to cake than biscuit, now imagine short bread and then it's relation to an oatmeal biscuit, (both are of a reasonable softness but with vastly different textures, where is the line, where does one draw biscuit and cookie, you could assume fro oatmeal having more American recipes it's cookie by virtue of there being more references of it in American circles but ultimately if that's the case then America get's dibs on naming everything and well fuck that, take for example biscotti which America has cast of as for strange coffee drinking people and is like a super biscuit... my god humans have a lot of biscuit textures, and that's before you factor in savoury crackers which I can point to at very least in Ireland being referenced as biscuits very consistently (no idea about America and the savoury biscuit trends)
Conor McLaughlin
(( commenting as I'm watching )) : Milka Oreo egg // Oreo egg : very much the same Philosopher / Sorcerer's stone, you've got philosopher's in the states they're not a known quantity
Conor McLaughlin
I'm not sure if someone posted this already but white chocolate is just a smaller percentage of cocoa to a much larger percentage of sugar and usually a fat, most often vegetable oil (rapeseed/seed oil) to act as filler, that's why it's sometimes got that artificial sickly sweet quality
Matthew Smith
Remember that joke about realising they'd have to fish their razor out of the toilet in wokebrands, the look on your face when you realised what you did with the icing....

because of these oreo videos, my partner has started calling oreo parts "ash" and "goo" and I cannot undo this

I love the video title lol

Oh my god! I just wanted like an update. The text was more than enough. I just wanted a quick video to watch while doing the dishes, I didn’t think this would be a two hour epic about Oreos

ohhhhhhh my goood im soooo looking forward to the adobe video. Ive been into Free Software activism for a long time and i feel like humanity is at a pretty critical tipping point here. Sooo incredibly glad to have you make a vid on it and get more eyes looking on it <3 <3 <3 Thank you for everything you do. It honestly is so inspirational

My favorite iced coffee of all time is the Oreo international delight coffee! I’m glad to see it made it into the second part. The funny thing is I don’t ever really eat Oreos. In the past year, I’ve eat zero Oreos, yet I’ve had that coffee several times. I would have had it more, but my local grocery store doesn’t carry it.
JayyMission
Hey real talk is it possible to get my hands on one of those bisexual dragon towels LMAO You should definitely put those on sale
a tiny part of the internet
Fuck man I want that dragon towel so so soooo bad I’m a bisexual living in Wales- its like it was made FOR ME- please please put those on sale

We used to have the TUC Milka bar here in Ireland and I was briefly obsessed!

i would pay money for one of those dragon towels
Teryeasta Breadloaf
thank you so much for wearing a kn95 mask on the plane, as someone immunocompromised and disabled by covid and feeling so alone in trying to keep the ongoing mass-disabling pandemic from hurting me and others even more, I'm really glad to see you taking precautions like that to keep from spreading it and other viral illnesses 😷🤎
Julian Kuhls
Thank you so much for going through these trials. True commitments to the mysteries of adventures in branded offshoots. I would genuinely be interested in those beachtowels. As a proper fan, I have never heard of them. Delighted to be enlightened.
Saana Korhonen
I’m probably outing myself as the degenerate I am, but Milka has a TUC chocolate bar which I unironically love. So the chocolate bar has full on mini saltines surrounded by chocolate, like the Milka Oreo one has. It’s so good.
Damp Squid
Kat, you could easily be a YouTube presence on your own, you're great fun in these and I've always enjoyed your little cameos in Jenny's videos.
Damp Squid
So is our next Patreon video going to be Vegemite themed products? I imagine it would be shorter but then, I'd never have imagined three hours of Oreos, Harry. This is not a complaint. Do your thing.
Kat Lo
WELL YOU JUST MADE MY DAY <3
messilymoonlit
finally got around to watching this video and i already commented on youtube but i thought i'd say something here! i know yall would probably reach out to someone more qualified if you were to actually make a video about the oreo barbies, but i collect (and customize!) dolls as a hobby and know a lot about them :] i would be more than happy to answer any questions yall might have or to just chat about the dolls. my collection isnt as big as many others (i've only got 12, excluding the 10-ish that I have waiting to be customized and the 2 that I am currently working on customizing), but i cherish it nonetheless and have done some restoration work on some of them that i'm very happy with. my oldest doll is an allan doll from 1963 which i got for cheap because some of his paint had rubbed off, but it was a very easy fix :-) but, yeah, i've only had this hobby for around 5 years now and don't have the money to have acquired a massive collection in that time, but regardless i would be more than happy to talk dolls with you.

I will pay shipping fees if you still have one of those Bi-flag with the dragon on it. I have a friend that would love that!
Daniel Gilbert
Can't wait to have that delicious *e g g* on my face
transpadme
barbie changes faces every once in a while, so you can often date a barbie doll to its general period based on its face. the first looks like it's from after 2015, though I didn't look too close, while the second is absolutely from the 90s.

I need the flag towel!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I hope this is a lesson learned 🤣

I agree with you that the milka chocolate bar with the little oreos in it is amazing. It's quickly become one of my favourite chocolates. Over here its Marabou that does them instead of milka, but the design is the same. :D

Rachel Krengel
My 16 year old daughter and 14 year old goblin child are forcing me to do this - you missed a milka. The 16 year old came back from budgens with a "choco" flavour oreo milka. It had no goo, only a layer of biscuit encased in milka. I had a little bit (before the child inhaled the whole thing as only a person with puberty metabolism can) and i actually think i like it more than the other oreo milka. I'm also normally only there for the goo and really like milka chocolate but actually the biscuit kind of balanced the sweetness of the chocolate and added sone crunch in quite a nice way. Sort of how oreo biscuits work with the goo. This is the most ridiculous comment i've ever left on someone's patreon but the spawn have asked me 4 seperate times to do this and may never leave me alone and let me eat my dinner if i don't. I'm sorry. I thought you reviewed plenty of oreo themed milka.

also kat is so pretty 🥺 i love seeing ur guys' friendship/banter

Don't know whether you're aware someone basically just made a "Adobe is so bad it drove me entirely to Linux" video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lm51xZHZI6g I don't assume it'll be a full scoop, considering it's only 10 min, but might be worth mentioning anyway <3
Fallen Tenshi
I survived the first Oreo video without too much pain, but watching this second one felt like constantly questioning if you both will still be alive for further videos. I also suspect with the non-stick based lip balms you're meant to use your fingers or something to apply it not just shove it in your face/beard!
Ash
When I worked at Sheetz (not sure if there's a UK equivalent. it's a 24/7/365 gas station combined with a fast food restaurant. pretty american) we would order the small cookie pieces to use in our milkshakes and stuff. so i know that bag pretty well

I'm crying I can't believe you had bisexual dragon beach towels and didn't tell anyone. When you said there was merch I assumed it would be like, mugs or t-shirts with something related to your video on it but there were BISEXUAL PRIDE DRAGONS????
corvidinthewoods
oreo barbie tic tac toe reminded me, in highschool i had a little club at the local library where we played Oreo Poker using different flavors as different values of chips and you took home your winnings. usually we had regular as 5, golden as the 10, and 50 as a rotating special flavor like mint or red velvet. it was fun how our betting habits changed depending on if we actually wanted the different flavors
Kait Hatch
This Oreo hyperfixation trend is so entertaining. Also, free market, innovation something something…
Adam Tool
Harris, I just want to comment and thank you for really being open and honest with who you are. I can't tell you how much joy it brings me to see creators I love that make me feel seen and included in the conversation. Folks like us have to face so much hardship from the world at large and it really does make a difference to laugh alongside someone who lives the way I live. On behalf of dry cereal enjoyers all across the world: thank you.

For what it's worth, I think "Adobe Must Die" is a pretty solid title. It's eye-catching, and it's pretty on-brand, given that "who's hbomb's next target?" is now a viewer expection post tallarico and somerton.

I’d be extremely interested in talking about open source! I’ve launched a few large open source projects over the last 11 years, most recently an open source solar powered farming robot. I’m a huge proponent of the idea that our system of intellectual property restrictions actually cause serious harm to our economic development as a society, and that the reason we don’t fix the situation is that restrictive property notions help concentrate wealth so the ownership class loves it. But we would be much better off with an economy built on a more open foundation. I’m really excited to see your video! Leftists absolutely can and I think should better understand the value of open source to a world with community ownership of the means of production. There is a lot of nuance to this subject and it’s an area I have thought and written about for some time now. Do please contact me if you would like to chat! I’m very happy to volunteer my time.
Ro the Lion
As a South African chocolate enjoyer, I am wounded! Tho tbh, I would not touch milk chocolate, much less white chocolate, it's much too sweet. So I can only speak of the stuff that's like 70% cocoa and up, but... there's some really good stuff if you avoid the big international brands, like yeah, there's a plague of Nestle here, as there always will be in food deserts. Anyway. Anyway! Come back and eat local artisanal choco!

Always excited for whatever comes next, dude. I’ve watched your Pathologic video like 3 dozen times in the past couple weeks, and that genuinely might be underestimating it. I’m glad YouTube doesn’t tell me how many times I’ve watched a video, I don’t need that burden there might be a better place to ask this, or maybe the better place is nowhere at all, but you seem like you have good taste in things and because my brain is broken I’ve accumulated 8 credits for Audible audiobooks with no idea what to get, so I was just wondering if you’ve any recommendations that would enrich my tiny peanut brain

For 20:07, because I am an obnoxious knowledge sharer: Normal white chocolate is actually a little bit yellow-y! It becomes white when it oxidizes (which shouldn't affect flavor or texture). Also white chocolate is cocoa butter, sugar and milk! It's still chocolate because it has stuff from the cocoa plant, but it's also very different from milk/dark chocolate.
Esme
Thank you, Kat. The faces not seen on camera rarely get their due. You seem awesome and I'm glad you're out there making these things possible.

Also, I'm totally here for an unhinged dive into barbie brand deals next! :D
David Leonard
Harry makes a gripping viral video a calling out plagiarists and it was so entertaining so I look through his other videos and there's vaccine stuff and really interesting content. I signed up to his Patreon and he's just eating Oreos down the camera. Clearly this guy is a visionary content creator.
Chris Gillotti
Nabisco comes from national biscuit company. This hole keeps getting deeper
dixego
Hbomb, would you ever consider making a video documenting the process of how you went about doing the James Somerton Plagiarism Relief Fund? Also, happy new year and thanks for eating all those oreos
Air Stratus
Happy new year, and thank you for all your hard work! As for the cakester/ whoopie pie debate, both use dutch process cocoa, which is what gives the biscuit part of oreo that signature flavor: namely, the part harris likes least, and kat is most sensitive to. It’s that Good, Dusty Taste. That said, I think you may have enjoyed actual whoopie pies way more than the cakesters, as they are topped up with heaps of either marshmallow creme or creme made from whipped shortening and powdered sugar, depending on whose late aunt’s recipe you’re following

I so badly need you to know that we just don't call sweets "biscuits" in the US. We call them all cookies! Biscuits are the small breakfast breads.
Rowena P
harry i regret to inform you that USAmericans don't distinguish between biscuits and cookies. they're all just cookies here. this is because what we call biscuits are exclusively those savory scone like things that are typically eaten with gravy or fried chicken. if it's a dessert item, it's not called a biscuit in the states. kind of like how we decided "football" refers to an entirely different game than the rest of the world.

I saw on QI once too that another difference is that when going stale, biscuits go hard and cookies go soft.

Happy new year, everyone! Thank you for posting this.

Title suggestion: "Ode to a Future Without Adobe" which tickles me because of the implication you should pronounce Adobe like you pronounce Ode (A Dobe)

Well, I'm 8 minutes in and I'm FASCINATED to know how this is going to end up being a nearly three-hour video... :D

Ummm as a bisexual dragon, can I has towel???

I vividly remember a no-bake Oreo "cake" mix we had in Germany many years ago. After mixing and combining the ingredients to resemble a sad Oreo, the thing was supposed to chill in the fridge until firm. At least that's what we all believed. No matter what you did, it would always remain a wet paste that you could never cut into pieces. You'd have to just eat the whole thing with a spoon. I don't know if anyone ever managed to get it to a solid state.

Hbombadil I’m begging you, can I please have one of the bisexual dragon flags?? I will happily pay!

I might have missed this but it’s wax. They literally add food grade paraffin wax and extra sugar to North American chocolate to fuck the melting point. Because not having chocolate melt in your hands turned out to be more important than flavor in America

That bisexual dragon towel is unironically fire and I would gladly pay for one.
Lukas van Amelsvoort
Same here, love that towel

Harris, calling the impression of melted chocolate on the candy bar wrapper "spray pattern" is insane.
Claire Rhiannon
British neurodivergent linguistics and etymology enjoyer here: biscuit comes from the Latin for “twice baked/cooked”. It’s worth looking into the history of them as it’s so fascinating. They used to be made out of bread - either breadcrumbs made into a sweetened paste and baked again or bread that was I guess dipped in sugar and spices and then baked again. Someone on Reddit said American biscuits (which are basically just unsweetened scones) and British biscuits both come from the route of hardtack (I assume British scones are too as they’re the same as American biscuits but with butter instead of crisco) which would explain the naming crossover! The etymology and history of food is fascinating to me.

Mr. Harry, you are truly the best. Thank you Kat. Thank you for being who you are.
Alice Parkin
I sat bolt upright like an actual meerkat when you mentioned Nicholas Winding Refn because literally how did that man manage to make one of the greatest films of the decade and then just... absolute rubbish. But sincerely, thank you Mr. Guy and Kat also for all your work on the plagiarism ad revenue, your videos are more than worth the wait because of the incredible amount of diligent work you put into them - congratulations on wrapping up what must've been a hell of a project to get through. All the best for 2025, looking forward to the 🍳! And fuck Adobe!

Mr. Harryll Brombus Man, I'll happily take your bisexual towels if you need to get rid of them (I'm in California too :3)

PPS: for the record I made the "paste" suggestion before I got to the part of the video that discussed glue, but I feel like it only reinforces my argument
Josh Yates-Walker
Just took a look, Milka and Oreo (Nabisco) are owned by Mondelez International along with Cadburys. Mondelez came out of Craft Foods.

As someone who realized they were bi last year, I feel like a bisexual dragon beach towel would be a good way to tell my parents

Mike Craft
Okay, neurodivergent nomenclature liker here: in American colloquial usage, a "cookie" is sweet and a "biscuit" is savory. There are no other consistent criteria. Also, chocolate has two main components: cocoa solids and cocoa butter. Milk chocolate has milk added. White chocolate has milk and cocoa butter but no cocoa solids.

happy new year! So uhh you think you could send me some of that merch?

Thanks for everything and take your time ! We'll wait all we need to see a final product just the way you envisioned it.

I genuinely need one of those dragons

So happy for you Harry. Hope 2025 is a glorious one. Same to you Kat, you are a champion, a hero, and a scholar to so many of my favourite minds. May you continue to keep holding each others hands making us all learn and laugh. Grateful to you both. Happy new years.

I’m excited that you’re looking at Adobe and hope you can touch on Autodesk a little. They bought out virtually all traditional 3d modeling tools and even closed some of them permanently which screwed over studios with 10+ years of experience in one package. And then made everything subscription only and have spent the last 10 years, like Adobe, incrementally making the software slower and shittier and bloated and removing things that worked fine for years. I would learn Blender but I can’t afford the time off right now, it’s such a foul dependency to be stuck in
Gordon Petten
Cheers man, Happy New Year, thanks for doing what you do.
Katicorn
The Oreo brand has produced so many crossovers that I'm shocked they haven't bought themselves a Guinness World Record for most crossovers
Wendy
I haven’t seen anyone mention it yet, so here goes. The difference in melting (meltage?) is caused by different types of fat being used. Europe tends to use more cocoa-butter and milk-fat in their chocolate which has a lower melting point. European chocolate also has a higher mandated cacao content (30%) and usually uses less sugar but that’s more a taste thing. Happy New Year Kat and Harry, I hope you recover from eating this much chocolate!
Sparrow
All respect to you and to Kat for doing all the work that you do. Here's to hoping a situation like this will not happen again, but that might be asking too much
Tompoes
I just wanted to say thank you for wearing a mask. Thank you for protecting yourself and others!
Keyrune
Deep respect to you for all the work you did on the money distribution. It's inspiring to see that kind of commitment to doing good.
Farlands Fiction
I'm only about a minute into this video and I need to know - did you actually spend the whole flight in the labcoat, or did you put it on to film a couple of shots and then take it off? Either way, how did the other passengers on the flight/in the airport react to you filming these segments?
Rosa Hadwin
(Better name pending)? I sure hope not that name is great. That said take your time, we've waited a year for your next video we can wait a little longer than that (hopefully), just make sure you take care of yourself.

To the egg! 🍻 Still hoping a Godzilla video is on the eventual horizon, Shin was so good and then we got Minus One?! We're feasting

Harry mentioned melting steel beams out of the blue, then immediately slipped "loose change" into the next sentence. Is he trying to tell us something???
Sebastian Horey
How much are you distributing and to how many people? It’d be cool to know some more of the details since you’ve been working on it for so long.
Chris Nicholas
Any word on that doughnut you mentioned with the Newgrounds video?
Jazz
Happy New Year! I hope you both enjoy many eggs, cookies, and egg-flavored cookies (hire me, Oreo) in the coming months as reward for the impactful, productive and good work you do.

Well Orville, you’ll be pleased to know that more and more people are refusing to accept reality and we are advancing at an accelerated rate right off a cliff (which they claim doesn’t exist).

Adobe bought Flash, though. Macromedia is the company we should be celebrating.

Outstanding job, Harry and Kat! I know this past year was A Lot, but I'm glad to hear you each made it through in one piece. Really proud of you for what you've done to help all those creators, and how you handled everything that came in the wake of the video. All of this really does matter. Thank you so much for all your videos. They're permanently in rotation as some of my Emotional Support YouTube Videos, and I've learned a lot from them. Proud to be a supporter and wishing you a wonderful 2025. x

2024 was a leap year, so it was 366 days, Harris! I'm unpatroning immediately. All jokes aside, I'm glad you had a productive year. I don't mind at all that we didn't get a main channel video because the last one was so impactful, and honestly I don't have as much time to consume content as I used to, so quality over quantity is preffered.
Danielle
Happy new year! Just glad you're still kicking and being a good dude. Also thanks to Kat
