my first ever comic I ever tried to work on: Saltberg
Eddie is a sophomore in rural west Texas town called Saltberg. Saltberg, a town with a population of 1,642 and counting, where everyone knows everyone's business and people avoid the outskirts after dark. He's just trying to survive being a highschool loser until he graduates and moves away from the Podunk little town that he's known all his life, when he learns he isn't as human as he thought. There's a supernatural war on the brink of boiling over in Saltberg and it seems like no one's escaping this one unscathed.
Once I finish my superhero comic I'll revisit this wip but for now more concept art ahhaha
Character Line Up
Eddie and Buddy as kids! :}
and it was originally Saltberg, Utah (i've since changed it to Texas)
The incident where Eddie got his scar!
and my attempt number seven to try and rough draft my comic
my toxic xennial trait is that i believe something should either be software (in which case after i download it i shouldn't need to be connected to use it) or a web page (which shouldn't require me to download anything to use it, however badly, in a browser). fuck your mandatory single function constant connection apps
When it comes to wearing eclectic loose fitting androgynous clothing, grandmas and wizards are undefeated.
Gaza is in a communications blackout again, and every other time this has happened in the last 2 months, Israel has intensified their attacks on Palestine while they are cut off from communications and medical aid is harder to access

adult friendships are so dumb like yeah i think i can find a time to hang. how’s february 17th at 4pm
Around five years ago I made a list of free horror movies you could watch on Youtube. Unfortunately none of the links work anymore and it’s much harder to get full-length films on Youtube these days.
But not impossible! Here is a brand new version with links that work as of 9/21/21 for all your Halloween marathon needs. Some of these are very old movies in public domain, others are just up on Youtube and nobody cares enough to take them down. A few are on Youtube Movies and are free with ads embedded (*). Enjoy!

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.
