Google Chrome: A Review

Google Chrome is awesome. It's safety and privacy features are closer to a Macs level of functioning than a PC's. PC security sucks and everyone knows it, or at the very least, everybody should.

The brutal truth of the matter is, Macs are 10,000 times safer than the PC operating system, just as Google Chrome is 10 times safer from hacktivity than regular Google. Plus it's free and doesn't cost anything. Now I'm never going back, even though I was hesitant to embrace Chrome at first...

Now that I think about it, yeah!....Y'know, that's right!

Now that I think about it, why are Americans deprived of ANY animation produced in Japan? Why CAN'T there be a streaming website or HD DVD for every Japanese animated series and film ever released. If all (and I mean ALL, and not just popular) titles were available on Digital Disc and online on an individual case by case basis, sales would probably go up, not down, considering websites often save production costs. I WANT THERE to be a place I can go to see every single last piece of animation production FROM Japan. Not just "some" of it. Screw "seeing some". I want to "see all!" Any real anime fan does, too.

It was a beautiful day in my house outside. One of the most beautiful I've ever seen...

Normally, people just yell things at me. BAD Things.

But a few days ago, I was perplexed after briefly leaving my house to get a whiff of fresh air. I walked down to my mailbox. I usually avoid all contact when I do this. And yet, for some reason I couldn't understand or fathom, I saw this excited little 7 year old kid leave his house at the same time. He had a sparkle in his eyes I noticed, even from three houses away. He was running down his driveway excitedly, and then it hit me why he was so excited.

He was looking at...me.

That kid was excited to see Me! Of all people! It was like he was thrilled over nothing more than the fact that I was out of my house, outside and he got a chance just to LOOK at me. I've never seen someone, an innocent little kid so excited and happy just to see me, from as far as three houses away. It warmed my heart. Are people actually now starstruck by me?

If I post ANYwhere on the internet OTHER THAN YouTube (the voice of the people), my views generally fall on def ears. Nearly every time. It’s fucking weird.

The TRUTH about Manic-Depression. The Upside: FOCUS

Doctors go on and on about "how dangerous mania is", but they fail to note it's benefits.

Mania doesn't just give you a boost and energy. It gives the person who experiences it hyper-focus.

Why is more focus a bad thing according to doctors.

The truth is, people need a lot of focus to get a lot of work done.

And I have this theory that isn't really documented very much, but I am quite certain it's true:

The theory is:

Energy level and Focus Level are Correlated. Energy makes Focusing on Your Work, Art, Writing, and tasks the easiest thing in the world.

When one does not have energy in their system, one is unable to focus. If you don't have energy, you WON'T focus, and will probably suffer from depression, lack of focus, and high amounts of sloth, tiredness, and fatigue, thus making it impossible to be a truly productive worker.

There are benefits to mania. But it's energy in general that benefits our attention, focus, and concentration levels.
