Update- once she saw the dress on, she was like "you look great and I'm stealing that dress"

So now I'm threatening to wear my shirt that just says CUM (in the doom font)

Omg new AFI album is exactly what my soul needed.
It's about time davey havoc went full new wave- he's got that voice, it's perfect.
New album sounds like it could have been made in the 80s, with Robert smith co producing

For those who know Freqout, he's an amazing man and an OG hacker-from Boston to New Hack City. His family has experienced unimaginable tragedy recently, and this is to help with their hospital and funeral expenses.
