The Fault, Dear Brutus, Is Not In The Stars, But In Ourselves.

I love how Dorohedoro and Made in Abyss (as well as Puella Madoka Magica) are in completely different spectrum compared their artistic styles.

Dorohedoro looks dark, grisly, twisted. Demons, blood, magic, dark magic, mad max-like aesthetic, and kink & horror aesthetic. And yet, everyone is pretty much a darling idiot. The main character is a big doofus sweetheart, there’s lots of comedy and many lovable dorks. They have a baseball playing man sized cockroach called Johnson because why not. It’s a very “general” adventure story that just looks very dark but is sweet and lighthearted. You might have seen this post:

Yup! That’s Dorohedoro.

Then we have Made in Abyss. Super cute looking, super adorable, the anime is colored brightly and the kids are so cute! How adorable! Except the story is one of the most twisted and darkest ones I’ve encountered. I was told “Watch Made in Abyss only if you can handle bad things happening to kids”. Oh boy, if that warning wasn’t in its place! I heard from someone here that the comic is even darker and more twisted than the anime - so much that the person telling me this was completely disgusted by it and said it ruined the whole series for them. It’s almost like “This can’t get any worse” and then it does :D While looking cute and super adorable.

As I mentioned, Puella Madoka Magica does this same. Just keeps getting worse and worse, like a nightmare, while looking like a series made for 8yo little girls:

What I want, all you young artists and people thinking you should do things way X because by some weird rules you’re “supposed to” do things X that way, to know this: BULLSHIT.

You want to make an adorable, lighthearted and funny story looking like a horror comic? Go for it!

You want to make super cute and kawaii looking series that is nothing but an agonizing nightmare where all the horrors of the world take place? Go for it!

Rules don’t bound you. Only you bound yourself.

Things that will make your computer meaningfully faster:

Replacing a HDD with an SSD

Adding RAM

Graphics cards if you're nasty

Uninstalling resource hogs like Norton or McAfee (if you're using Windows then the built-in Windows Security is perfectly fine; if you're using a mac consider bitdefender as a free antivirus or eset as a less resource intensive paid option)

Customizing what runs on startup for your computer

Things that are likely to make internet browsing specifically meaningfully faster:

Installing firefox and setting it up with ublock origin

adding the Auto Tab Discard extension to firefox to sleep unused tabs so that they aren't constantly reloading

Closing some fucking tabs bud I'm sorry I know it hurts I'm guilty of this too

Things that will make your computer faster if you are actually having a problem:

Running malwarebytes and shutting down any malicious programs it finds.

Correcting disk utilization errors

Things that will make your computer superficially faster and may slightly improve your user experience temporarily:

Clearing cache and cookies on your browser

Restarting the computer

Changing your screen resolution

Uninstalling unused browser extensions

Things that do not actually make your computer faster:

Deleting files

Registry cleaners

Defragging your drive

Passively wishing that your computer was faster instead of actually just adding more fucking RAM.

This post is brought to you by the lady with the 7-year-old laptop that she refuses to leave overnight for us to run scans on or take apart so that we can put RAM in it and who insists on coming by for 30-minute visits hoping we can make her computer faster.

my gf had the gall to utter “law comes to school after not sleeping all night, turns to bepo and says ‘i kin hamlet’ and passes out” to me and dare i say im in love

Messy thing with no less messy lass :^)
