Funkadelic a Bit of Everything
Funkadelic is a sporadic feature for the most talented and lovely literature artists on DeviantART; it is hosted by ivorysinkshore. Today's feature includes two mini-interviews, shoutouts to fifteen incredible people, and a mass feature of topnotch art.

:bulletgreen: we can only hurt ourselves
