my laptop is really bad and really slow so doing anything other than writing posts and adding pictures is kinda difficult, turns out keeping it charged and never shutting down for three years of university isn't good for its health

i dont think ive ever been pushed this outside of my comfort zone in my life, and its incredibly scary. rewarding when things go good, but debilitating when things go bad
