I had plans for December. Life had other plans. While I'm away, go check out some of my favorite YouTube channels (see lists below)! Go subscribe to my 2nd channel, where my Dad and I work on IT projects and talk about radio, IT, and electronics engineering! null And please consider donating to the UOAA: https://www.ostomy.org/donate/ (or click the link in the sidebar).

Many of these channels inspire my work, and give me ideas for videos and projects to follow them up. Tech YouTube (of all varieties) is a great space to be in, and I hope you're also able to show some support to the other channels above!
