I'm not a particularly hard person to find online. I'm on Diaspora (maybe haven't logged in in a while), pump.io (maybe haven't logged in in a while), soundcloud, libre.fm, last.fm, ccMixter, and tons of other places.

My dog's name is T'Challa. He is joined a family of cats, is black (mostly), and is African (not completely, he's a mutt).
