SWITCH ON
•
If this were another site, I’d be screaming “THIS IS SIMON FUCKING DRAX DOT COM,” or “BACK ON THE AIR,” with some goddamn retro giant Soviet-Era radar array, or some naked chick with all this weird shit wrapped around her… or something… or, ”THIS IS ICHIBAN WEAPON READY, ALL SYSTEMS, etc,” followed by some mecha [...]

EXIT VECTOR, “All Souls, Bright and Shining”
