It
feels like a pretty prolific week in terms of blogging. My release
schedule is filled up to October 1. I think trying to finish the "Chris
Memoirs" journal may be hurting my intros to the blogs, but that only
looks bad if your scrolling through the past blogs.
This may mean I should just use my hosting space to actually develop a web page to avoid maineventofthedead.com
opening a bunch of browser tabs, but I do not know if Windows XP era
Adobe design software will work on Windows 10. I was lucky that they
stuck around through Windows 7. Squarespace is not an option since I
already have hosting space.
How to promote entertainment blogs efficiently. First world problems are all I have had the past couple of days. And they are:

I
guess you could lump in the vocal member of classes 1996 to 1999 from
Morton High School with these conservative trolls on Twitter. The cunts
from Morton are probably to insecure to become one of the sociopathic
Twitter twats. They realize that you got to work to earn those fake
friends. It is so much easier for them to just type in your high school
some barely graduated from (in the case of the wrestling teammate who
was proud of his racism which god will forgive because he is opposed to
abortion) or those that need to be friendly enough with to sell cars to
(in the case of the racist homophobe with an inferiority complex who
blames the victims when it comes police brutality).
Some
people just want you to be realistic. I had shared a meme that touted
how Barack Obama had given us affordable healthcare, constant
improvement in the job market, and saved us from the great recession. A
person responded with the rise in immigrant detentions, drone strikes,
and inequality growth that happened during his presidency. My response
was to tell them why that happened and how he brilliantly responded
(DACA, troop reduction, and healthcare costing him chances to fix the
problem that the rich are). In addition, since Trump had made all of
points worse, why do you want us not to think of better times?
I
can ignore high school sucking hard. I had wrestling and was team
captain on top of that. Bruce Springsteen wrote about the attitude in
"Glory Days".
Wrestling and an anime collection allowed me to survive my hometown.
Then adulthood almost immediately cut the latter out of my life. I have
spoken of this before. Once Toonami, Adult Swim, and IFC took over
anime distribution, every kind of release came out in season box sets.
College classes and jobs did not allow me to watch the content as it
aired stateside, so I could not sample the content before making a
decision to buy. It felt like the cost of getting away from Morton,
Illinois was half of my sanity.
Fortunately,
my little brother was borrowing DVD's from friends, so I occasionally
got lucky and caught an intriguing enough series. Thus, "Hellsing", my
introduction to Gonzo studio and their standard too harsh for run after
"Cowboy Bebop" products.
