My name is Benjamin Cavanagh Diggles.


I am the web director + co-founder of db clay. I am 27, married + living in Portland Oregon. I don't have many reasons for keeping this blog. I love to talk about emerging web culture + how retarded the media is but mostly it consists of stuff that makes me smile.

I fear neckties + 2012 + I have mild OCD but I will always post, so please come back if you are interested in a little thing called fun. Feel free to leave a comment + not be an asshole. Chill, none of this means anything.
contact me if you want to.
