DigitalArt , Better Than Gaming

Android phones are now relatively affordable. Nobody is ever caught without it except for old school farts who insists that 'that' thing-y or gadget is nowhere within their cranial capacity.

THIRD WORLD LIVING ENTERTAINMENT PRESENTS

JC played a straight-acting gay man caught in nasty broil of Ecstasy addiction and trade.
