Tumblr media
You always knew you were lucky to have such an amazing husband; in fact, all your friends asked you at least once where you found him.
Seungcheol is truly a dream come true: he is a hardworking man, he always finds energy to cook for you, clean around the house every night, but most importantly, he never fails to make time to love you but also to satisfy you. Ever since you two started going to bed – to do more than sleeping – he always found a moment to fulfill your needs, with no shaming.
It's been over three hours since your husband came home, looking as good as ever and a little over an hour since you two started cleaning up around the house after dinner; your daily cleaning time started in the kitchen with Seungcheol doing the dishes while you were wiping down the counter tops. You stole glances at your husband the whole time, noticing the way his arms bulged at every one of his movements, his white shirt hugging his body tightly, his back tattoo showing through the thin material making you drool at the view. He was truly a sight to behold with his blonde hair gently grazing at his upper cheeks as a natural smile hangs on his lips. A few times, he took you by surprise as he turned around to meet your eyes, a chuckle leaving his lips almost every time, knowing you were turning into a puddle – down to your panties – at the way he looked.
Your cleaning made its way through the living room as you were in charge of fluffing the sofa cushions and dusting the coffee table while your husband was vacuuming. The stolen glances followed you all throughout the housework, as if you were still a shy student having a crush on your senior, as if you were not looking at your husband who fucks you every night. As you keep working on the cushions, fluffing them over and over again, being too flustered at the sight of your husband, you wish for time to go by faster so you can hop in the shower and burn your skin with cold water.
But since your husband is none other than the teasing shit Choi Seungcheol is, he keeps making exaggerated noises, groaning every time he has to bend down or push out a chair. He even goes as far as to wipe the sweat on his forehead with his shirt, his torso all in the open for you to feast your eyes upon. You almost snap a few times because his antics were distracting you from your task in hands but you know that sooner than later, it will be time to go to bed and you will somehow get what you want – like you always do. Because as much as Seungcheol is a teasing shit, he is first and foremost a simp for you.
“Are we ready to take care of the laundry, sweetheart?” your husband asks you, wrapping his arms around your waist as you organize a console in your living room, “Because it is hell in there.” He pouts, resting his chin on your shoulder.
“Yeah, all done here!” you say cheerfully, caressing his hands before making your way to the laundry room, “Come on, the quicker we finish this up, the quicker we can go to bed!” you tell him as you push the door open.
“Oh, you want me in bed so bad.” He teases you making your ears burn.
As soon as you enter the room, you start to unload the dryer to fold everything up as you take special care to ignore Seungcheol’s words – and the burning sensation in the pit of your stomach as your husband starts to unload the washing machine. You start to fold up clean clothes and towels, making distinct piles of everything so it is easier to put away, trying your best to ignore your husband who’s quietly working on loading the dryer behind you – his groans and huffs still present in his breath. But as nothing comes without hardships, you fail miserably at ignoring his presence – his scent almost overwhelming you, his presence enveloping you, almost feeling his hands on you. You slowly get lost in the sensation he could give you if only he was touching you right now-
“Baby?” you hear his voice whisper in your neck, giving you goosebumps all the way down to your back, desire building in your stomach, “You’re good?”
“Hm, yeah,” you say as he starts to kiss down the side of your neck, his hands rubbing at your hips, “Just had a moment.”
“Wanna talk about it?” he asks in his deep voice, his hair tickling your collarbones and his lips never once leaving your neck, making your panties wetter by the second.
“I- fuck, I’m okay,” you say, a moan threatening to spill out of your mouth.
“Yeah? You don’t sound okay, darling,” he admits, his hand slowly making its way towards your pink cherry shorts while his other one wraps around your waist pining you gently to his body, “Is that okay?” he asks in your ear, playing with the band of your short.
“Hm, yeah,” you mumble out, one of your hands finding anchor on his arm around your waist, the other one resting on the counter top in front of you, “please,” you beg lowly, already needing him to fuck you.
“My pretty wife, begging so good for me, hm?” he chuckles, his digits crossing your shorts and panties, lightly touching your clit, wetness pouring out of you, “You’re already dripping, sweetheart.” he groans, drawing circles over your clit, building up your orgasm – as if you are not so close already.
“Only for you,” you moan, the knot in your tummy getting tighter and tighter, almost snapping, “Please- need you-” you say, reaching out behind you for his belt but before you can do as much as graze him, he takes your hand and pin it to the counter, making you bend down slightly.
“Let’s not get too greedy, now, hm? You’ve been so good for me, it’d be a shame to ruin everything now, wouldn’t it?” he warns, two of his fingers sinking in your pussy, your walls stretching to welcome him, more cum dripping out of you.
“S-sorry, fuck, feels so good,” you say, almost drooling at the way his fingers feel, plunging in and out in a timed rhythm, his thumb never once stopping its movements on your clit, bringing you so close to the edge, “I- just wanted to- know,” you try to explain, your words coming out all slurred from pleasure.
“Wanted to know what? If I’m hard for you?” he snickers, pushing his pelvis to your body, his hard-on pressing over your lower back, “Feel me.” he whispers, angling his fingers differently, grazing at your sweet spot, your moans coming out in rhythm with the pounding he settled for, “Of course I’m hard for you, darling. You should see yourself right now,” he chokes out, lightly humping himself against you, moans building in his throat, “And knowing you got horny over me cleaning around the house? Here I was, trying to be a good husband while my horny little wife was eye fucking me the entire time.” He sneers before whispering “Of course I saw you.” in answer to your whines.
“Cheol, cheol- fuck, baby,” you mumble, your orgasm burning at your stomach and all the way down to your pussy, your legs almost giving out below you, “I’m so close, can I please cum, please, let me cum, please, please, please,” you babble, feeling like your body is on fire, your eyes stinging with tears.
“Cum for me baby, go ahead,” he says, his fingers never once stopping as he wraps his arms around your waist, supporting you completely, “You can let go, darling. Let it wash over you, I got you,” he whispers, kissing your hair, before you slump in his arms, your orgasm making your legs give out and your eyes roll out. Your pussy spams around his fingers as they never once stop, working through your orgasm making you drip with cum, ruining your shorts and dripping down your thighs.
“Fuck- baby, you came so much,” your husband says as he pulls out his hand from your shorts, making you wince out. It takes you all the strength in the world to open your eyes and look back at Seungcheol, seeing him suck on his two fingers, moaning at the way you taste.
“Cheol- this is so dirty, even for you,” you moan, fully turning around and hiding your head in his neck.
“I don’t know what you mean, sweetheart,” he chuckles as he takes a hold of your face, leaning in slowly to kiss you – it always feels like he says I love you when his lips are against yours, “Are you okay? That was a lot,” he adds, resting his forehead against yours.
“I’m fine- I just feel clammy,” you pout, your fingers playing with the hem of his shirt and it takes everything in Seungcheol to not gasp when your fingers graze against his pants. Little does he knows you are doing it on purpose.
“Want to jump in the shower?” he asks, already parting from you before you grasp at his shirt mumbling something so softly he doesn’t even hear your words, “What was that, darling? Speak up for me, please?”
“No, I- want to keep going,” you whisper, not giving him any time to answer that you’re already kissing him, smoothly trying to get the upper hand before he grabs your jaw, setting out a rhythm that pleases him.
“Don’t get ahead of yourself, beloved,” he says after breaking the kiss, letting go of your jaw, “You want me?” he whispers, his arms resting on the countertop behind you, caging you against him.
“Yes- please,” you say, looking up with doe eyes, “Need you- Need your cock,” you whimper, already grabbing at his shirt, pulling it up so he can get the clue.
“Fuck- Okay sweetheart, I’ll fuck you,” he says, grabbing at your waist, you lower back bumping against the counter, “Nice and slow, hm? Is that what you want?”
“Yeah- want you,” you whisper, kissing his neck, all the way up to his jaw, making him groan out. He gently taps at your upper thigh, wanting you up on the counter all for himself. Just like a meal.
He gently puts you down, your thighs immediately wrapping around his hips, feeling his cock pushing against your clothed pussy while you still try to get him to lose the shirt, “Get the shirt off,” you mumble, your words working just like you wanted – and even a little too well – as he takes a step back to take off his shirt and his pants – his briefs falling to the ground too, “Fuck- baby- didn’t know you were going to do a strip tease for me,” you chuckle, still not you used to the sight of your husband even after being with him for years.
“You’re so silly,” he says, coming back between your legs to kiss you, as you touch his shoulders, feeling his muscles move at the way he plays with your shirt, “Your turn,” he mumbles against your lips, pulling your shirt over your head and throwing it behind him, “Now, this needs to go,” he says as he snaps the waistband of your short against your skin making it redden before pulling it off along with your panties, “We’re so lucky we’re in the laundry room because we are about to get so dirty,” he jokes out, the mood feeling lighter than before, love taking its deserved place between you two.
“Now who’s the silly one, hm?” you chuckle, looking at him as if he holds the world in his hands – and probably some more, your words making him giggle before he works himself up again, his hand wrapping around his cock, pre-cum oozing at the tip, “You look so hot,” you whisper, your eyes transfixed on his movement and the way his cock twitches with pleasure.
“Are you ready for me, darling?” he asks, a blush on his face at the compliment, as he teases your hole with his cock, driving you more and more insane.
“Yeah- just fuck me,” you whine, your hips bucking towards him, “Like you know how to do. Only you know how to handle me.” you tell him, teasing him before he plunges into you, your walls adjusting around him, you two moaning at the pleasure to feel each other. To drown in each other.
“Baby- you feel so good- so, so good for me,” he whimpers, his hips slightly bucking towards you.
“You can move, baby,” you tell him, tapping his upper arm lightly before finding anchor on his shoulders, your hands playing with his hair at his nape. He sets a slow rhythm, trying to reach as deep as he can, his hips flush against yours, making you moan out every time he pushes back against you. You drop your head back, closing your eyes as he kisses down your chest, up to your neck and jaw. You feel him bite, suck everywhere he can reach while you can only pull at his hair, pressure building in your lower belly, your moans getting louder and louder.
“Feels good, baby? Am I handling you like you wanted me to?” he chuckles against your throat, his truths meeting your pussy harder, quicker as he chases after his own orgasm.
“Fuck- yeah, yeah, you’re the only who knows how to fuck me,” you choke out, pleasure building all the way up in your throat, feeling yourself teetering on the brink of your orgasm, “I’m so close, please, please, let me cum baby, please, Cheol,” you cry out, tears threatening to spill.
“Shit- hold it, p-please, wanna come with my wife, please,” he begs, his hips working harder to finally let go.
“Baby, fuck- Come with me, come with me,” you choke out, pulling on his hair harder, your thighs wrapping around his frame, “Fill me up, make me yours- Cum for your wife,” you moan, breaking the last thread of sanity you both were holding on, feeling Seungcheol’s cock twitch as you clutch around him, both of your orgasms washing over you, making you shudder at the strength of it all.
You slowly come back to yourself, feeling Seungcheol leave tiny kisses over your belly, your hands stroking his hair. He slowly looks up at you, his lips harboring a lovesick smile, his eyes shining with a thousand stars.
“If you were not my wife already, I’d ask you to marry me right now,” he chuckles, massaging your hips as he pulls out, his cum almost dripping on the counter top, “That was the best orgasm of my life.” He admits, adoration coming out on his features.
“You’re too silly for my own good,” you joke, slowly sitting up straighter, trying to avoid making an even bigger mess, “We really did a mess of ourselves,” you acknowledge, a smile ever still presents on your lips.
“It’s our turn to get cleaned up now,” he says lightly, picking you up bride style as you let out a little scream at the surprise of being in the air.
Seungcheol might be silly – for saying he’d marry you because you gave him a good orgasm – and much more, but you know where he is coming from. In fact, you’d marry him a hundred times more. For he takes care of you like no one ever will, for he holds your world in his hands and for he is your soulmate. (And also, for the mind-blowing orgasms).

What Obey Me brothers do for Valentines day
Note: I have a love-hate relationship with Valentines day but it's a really cute holiday! Hope you guys have fun :] Warnings: Sappy love, fluff
Lucifer: - It's cannon he's been in many relationships so I don't think it's his first rodeo - He cleans up your room while you're at work. Washes your bedding+other laundry, makes your bed and folds your laundry, does some vacuuming. -He doesn't go through your drawers or anything just tries to make it a bit neater so you can come home and not worry about cleaning up - He gets you gifts based on things you like. If you like to make jewellery he'll get a couple kits from a hobby store to make together. If you like comfy clothes, he'll customise a set of pyjamas for you, etc. - He'll jot down notes of things you like all January. He makes sure to ask at the beginning of January what your dream Valentines day activity would be in hopes you forget about it over the month - I feel like he wouldn't ask for what he wants but he enjoys doing things together. He's a bit of a sap so he uses Valentines day to show it more. - I feel like he'd be a sucker for roses. Get him white and red roses with a little note and he'll never forget it. - He might get you some little things on Valentines day if it's on a week day and use the weekend to do more. - He'd love make dinner with you but he has your favourite restaurant on standby in case Beel walks in- - Watching movies together in his room cause his bed is bigger, taking your blankets and pillows into his room cause you're spending the night there. -He tears up a little at the end of the night, when you're sleeping in his arms. He hopes this is the most memorable Valentines day you'll ever have
Mammon: - He's a sap but in the "idk what I'm doing" way - Anything he knows about you leaves his brain - He gets you flowers and chocolate and sprays his cologne on a hoodie for you - He'll probably take you for a drive and show you all his favourite places (Spoiler. It's the places you first met, took your first date at, had all your firsts at) - He'll cry remembering how it started. how you ended up in his life and all the things you've been through - He takes you through a drive through and you eat in the parking lot. He has your shared playlist playing quietly in the background while you both talk about your days and your memories together - I feel like he wouldn't need anything. He just wants you - But if you got him a new sweater or watch he was looking at, he'd be extremely happy. - I also feel like he likes sunflowers
Leviathan: - He's never had a Valentine before, he also would be too scared to ask - He'd slip a note under your bedroom door that says "Wanna be my Valentine?" and when you agree he gets really happy but also nervous that you're kidding or are doing it out of pity - After much reassurance you set up plans together - You guys watch your favourite anime together, build the anime figurines Levi's been putting off together, play games, order food - You probably sneak out later to go walk to a convenience store to get snacks and drinks and go fuck around at a park - I think he'd buy your snacks for you and pick up a stuffy for you - He isn't overly sure what you like in the flowers and such department but he tries - I feel like he isn't a big flower person tbh
Satan: - Romantic slut man - He makes you a goody bag. He writes a love letter with references to the books you've read together, makes a kiss print sweater like the ones on tiktok (Got the idea from Asmo sending him stuff of what to do for you), got you the snacks you like, a gift card to the places you like and a lamb stuffy that reminds him of you - He likes lavender for sure - I feel like getting him a nice lavender room spray to help him relax while he reads, a cat stuffy, the book he's been dying to read but is always in use at the library and a new blanket would be perfect for him (I am absolutely projecting, and what) - Making a blanket for with him and watching the movie adaptations to the books you like is everything. Go to a cat cafe to get lunch before going shopping and putting the gift card he got you to use
Asmo: - Oh lordy lord - Bath bomb, rose petals, wine, your favourite show, the kiss print sweater but I feel like he'd do matching pants (You'll NEVER guess where he put the kisses!!!*REAL* *NOT CLICKBAIT*), spa day, a cute lunch and dinner date, SO MANY PICTURES - He wants to spoil you. Give you everything romantic he could possibly think of - He likes lilies. lilys? Idfk you get the idea - He also would love to make stuff together! I also feel like Asmo draws up a little map of all the places you had your firsts and put little Polaroid pictures of those days next to the spots - Taking him shopping and getting to go home, do a little fashion show, try all the new makeup he got one each other, make the teddy bear you got him smell like you, get him new blankets/candles/decorations for his room. He'd be so happy - I feel like as much as Valentines day is the day of love and he'd flirt a lot, he'd keep sex out of the plans (Unless you want it but than after the fact he'll complain about needing to catch up on the other plans he made lol) - He loves you for so much more than your body and especially cause he's the Avatar of lust he want to prove it's not just his sin getting in the way
Beel: - He gets you comfy clothes, snacks, and other stuff you like! If you have your ears pierced or have other piercings he'll get you cute jewellery, get you a necklace to match. If you like cats, he'll get you a sweater with cat ears and a cat stuffy - He worries about getting you flowers because if they smell good he'll want to eat them- - On the note he for sure likes edible flowers like hibiscus, rose, lavender and chamomile. I'd recommend getting him flowers in the way of getting flower flavoured things - He would appreciate ordering food from all the places you've been on dates so you can have a trip down memory lane while eating (He absolutely asked Asmo for that idea) - I feel like he'd ask his brothers and your friends for ideas cause as much as he knows you, you probably admit to like different or more stuff with friends - He asks you to show him all your favourite movies, current and childhood. He wants to know how you became the amazing person he fell in love with - He wouldn't want much for Valentines day. Candy and like I said, flower flavoured things would be enough for him. If you get him anything else please do not make it food related he will chew on it. Getting him new clothes and stuff based off his movie would make him really happy
Belphie: - Blanket, both of the fluffy and weighted variety. Cow stuffy. New sweater. -I would try and steer clear of stuff to make him sleep harder but he's a comfy kinda guy so it's hard - Star themed pyjamas and hair clips. Or bleaching his favourite constellations on a black hoodie. He'll wear it everywhere - I feel like he'd like white roses and dahlias - His ideal date would be getting food, going to the planetarium and talking, listening to music, looking at the stars, etc. And than going home and napping with his new blanket and in his new pyjamas. - He'd get you snacks, a hoodie and shorts that are your favourite colour, get you a new pillow that he'd test out first to make sure it was comfy. - And ofc he'd get you stuff you like. Your favourite perfume, stuff based on movies/shows/anime you like. - He'd get a little sappy and tell you he's so glad your still with him. That you're his

Have you ever thought of making an actual game? Even a little one?? Your 'Atom Amulet' art and gif look soooo good they legit fooled me for a bit when I first looked at them into thinking they were from a real game! Your enjoyment and respect for glitches and games as a medium is really neat, and tbh I'm super curious what you'd make! As someone who actually played a few weird old PS1 and computer games as a kid, sooo many attempts at 'retro low-poly style' games I see always break my immersion when I can see like.. too much anti-aliasing, too many things rendered in real time instead of prerendered (not extremely subtle stuff like raytracing or font choice, which gave away Petscop to a few incredibly observant people lol), etc.. part of the charm of old 3D games is devs clearly trying extremely hard to work with limitations of disc space and RAM! No one's cutting corners! Also the design for Atom Amulet's character is the kind I've been wanting to see SO badly in modern-retro games.. no one ever goes for 'rounded little creature guy who looks a little wonky' designs like you see in Creatures or SHEEP because they think it's too ugly! But it looks COOL! And that's part of why it really seemed like an actual old game to me at first.. I like your blog and art, your passion for games and glitches is really inspiring! Nice job on the animation and 3D art!
AHHHHH THANK YOU SO MUCH ANON ;__; This made me really happy to read... Trust me, I have daydreamed extensively about the kind of games I'd like to make, so I've definitely got ideas for stuff like that. Animation and 3D art in general is my main focus right now though, since I've got a lot I want to create, and still a LOT to learn as well, LOL. I would probably be most interested in making a game with a small team or creative partner, since even small games can be incredibly taxing to create and I'd prefer not to mentally and/or physically implode. (My main problem is mostly finding those people... I'm not good at initiating this kind of thing.)
Anyway, I absolutely agree on being kinda disinterested in a lot of 'retro low-poly' aesthetics, just because they feel too divorced from the actual technology that gave the style a reason to exist in the first place. That's not to say at all I think this style should exist in a chronological vacuum, or that it shouldn't be iterated upon with modern technology, but that it just looks too clean too often, too streamlined! I don't want that! I want WONKINESS!!!
I don't think it's necessarily a fear of this sort of 'ugliness', or at least not always—it's more so that this wonkiness can be sometimes hard to achieve at all. Like. Hold on. I could write stupid poetical paragraphs about this concept, but I think this post sums it up 10,000 times better than I ever could.
Tumblr media
The primary function of a comic is to tell a story that is best shown through the format of sequential images. So you might expect that anything made for a primarily visual medium must look 'good' to be effective, right? But it doesn't; MS Paint's ugly palettes and pixelated pens only serve to amplify the expressiveness in this image. It looks silly and simplistic, and that's exactly why it works. Whether this was intended by the artist is irrelevant. It's effective not despite its strange, subtle stiltedness, but because of it.
It reminds me of this post about animation by PilotRedSun, which I think about a lot:
I’ve learned a bit of animation fundamentals, branched out to other styles . . . but I still adhere to the rule that every animation on my channel should have a dysfunctional aspect to it. When an animation contains an error, it distracts the viewer. Thus when an animation is composed of errors, it mesmerizes the viewer.
Video games are interesting to compare to comics and animation in this sense, because most games are made simply to be played. Despite being a visual medium, it isn't necessarily expected to look good; it just has to function as an interactive experience. This emphasis on functionality, created through technological limitations of the time, is exactly what originated low-poly and pixelated styles. Older video game art didn't need to be particularly beautiful, just purposeful. You take a concept, put it on the screen, and continue stripping away pixels and polygons until only its most minimal existence remains, because if you don't, you won't be able to fit it within your meager 64 MB cartridge capacity. It looks wonky, and may not really resemble the initial concept as you saw it anymore... but it works.
That's not to say huge, high-res canvases of pixel art and raytracing on low-poly renders can't be uniquely beautiful as well—I think the ways these styles are innovated with modern technology is just as intriguing. The fundamental aspects of these styles will always be worth exploring, because at their core, they're about conveying things in unconventional ways. Simplicity makes it stilted and strange, and 'ugliness' is what makes it so evocative.
But like I said, I don't think it's a matter of intentionally avoiding these more subtle sorts of strangeness. It's just that harnessing and embracing it to its full extent is very hard. Particularly because modern technology often just... lacks limits. You can do practically anything with it, and that's the problem. If you have a decent GPU and the capacity to follow basic instructions, you can make a simple yet frighteningly hyper-realistic 3D scene in mere minutes, the kind that older video game developers could have only dreamed of. And technologically, it's impressive, but that's it. There are no corners cut, no concepts compressed, and nothing your computer can't handle for you. As soon as the realistic refractions and flashy lights fade, you realize it's all a little empty beyond the subdivision surfaces.
It's easy to get lost in a world without limitations, because empty canvases are just as freeing as they are intimidating. Making beautiful things because you can is obviously fun, and often impressive, but it gets boring. Sometimes I simply want to see things breaking at their seams, stripped down to the point of struggling to exist at all, and working—and being not just beautiful because of it, but fundamentally fascinating.

Hi! I’m thinking of getting a cat but I’m scared it’s gonna be more work than anticipated. Do you have any tips or things I absolutely should know?
Hello there! Okay, yes, I have thoughts that I can share, but first of all I want to preface this with ADOPT, DON'T SHOP if you do end up getting a cat (or dog!) 😊
So, first things first: yes, cat are work! as they are living beings that have needs! like a dog or a kid! and people often don't think that's the case when they adopt a cat, and some cats are fine and their people are fine, but some are not! And some cats might have special needs you don't know about! And whether it ends up being bearable work or not also depends on your attitude/mental health/energy levels/workload/etc.!
If you're worrying about whether it's going to be too much work for you, I'm guessing you're not a chill, laissez-faire person, which... same! Tbh more people should be a little bit more like us and think things through 😛 (That said, too much worry can be anxiety making up monsters in the tall grass.)
I don't want to scare you off adopting, but I will tell you my experience (under the cut because it got rambly):
So I have a black cat that we adopted with my family at their house, with a backyard and places to go. Obviously, he has needs and quirks and all, but he grew up as outdoors/indoors, in a house with three people who could take care of him, and is fairly aloof and independent. He has other issues going on but I won't get into that here.
Now I live alone in a studio apartment with no balcony or patio. For a while I really wanted a cat, and then at one point I was like "you know what, I'm good". Then this perfectly domesticated young cat showed up at my parents', and finding a family for him was too much trouble when he seemed like such a good fit for an apartment, so I took him in, and... yes, he is a pretty good kitty, but:
It turns out he can't keep down dry food and is a glutton, which means he can't be left alone for long periods of time since I can't leave a full bowl of kibble. It also means I have to clean up vomit often. I did not know this beforehand. My solution has been to moisten his kibble in advance because I can't afford wet food weekly, so I basically have to prepare food for him every day.
If I don't keep him up during the day, he stays up all night. He still wakes me up several times at night (I've been sleeping like shit since october) and he likes to bat things off surfaces. Which means I've pretty much had to clear my dinner table, and every night I have to secure the things on my desk, and put a pillow on my night table, so instead he zooms across the bed (: Oh, also, I'd just gotten a new bedspread and sheets, which I had to temporarily stop using because he'd scratch at them.
Since I live in an apartment with no airflow, I need litter that works. I don't have many options and some of them are expensive. Silica gel, for example - costs a lot, and the brand I got didn't even last the four weeks it promised. The litter I've found that really absorbs pee smell and isn't expensive is pine pellets, which track a lot. My sort of solution: mix it with regular (non-clumping) litter (little white stones) so that it filters out some of the sawdust. I still have to sift it daily, which is work! I also have a little box with a curved border, but litter still gets out.
Darcy also has long-ish hair, and has a cardboard scratching triangle he loves, so again, I have to clean very often (or suck it up). I bought a vacuum cleaner for this reason.
I thought having a big window would keep him entertained, but he's not a huge fan of the outside, so since he has nothing else to do (and I don't want him to sleep all day!), I need to play with him through the day, which I can only do because I work a lot from home.
Where I'm going with this is that adopting him meant changing my life a lot to accommodate him. Maybe someone reading this is like "wtf?? that's nothing! why are you scaring this person off adopting a cat over normal cat experiences??" But that's what I mean: people are different, and cats are too - and you can't control how your cat is going to be like. I love Darcy and wanted to give him a home, but sometimes I miss when I could be lazy in bed for as long as I wanted without a little guy crying for me to get up even though I just fed him! or leave for the day without worrying about coming back early because the little guy hasn't eaten since this morning! Adopting him pretty much reinforced my decision to not have human children.
As for general tips that I can think of:
If you're worried about it being too much work, get an adult cat - kittens are so much more work, they're more destructive, and you don't know what their personality is going to be like.
One of the most important things you're going to have to invest in is food - get good food! If you're worried about your cat liking/tolerating the brand, get a small bag and see how that goes. Kibble is not evil btw.
Closed litter boxes seem like The solution, but not all cats like that. So if you can't really splurge on one, just don't - it might be a waste of money. Try a box with a curved border instead, or one of those with a sifter if you go with pine pellets. Don't line the bottom with a bag, I haven't tried it but I've read cats aren't a fan. Also, the box should be fairly big for the cat! Mine is on the small side because I overestimated things... occasionally his butt misses it 😬
Don't throw cat poop down the toilet because it's bad, and don't put the cat poop in your regular trash bin even in a separate, closed bag because it will stink up the room every time you need to open it. My solution: I got a small steel trash can, lined the bottom with some litter (because inside it's a removable plastic box), and put the poop in a bag that I close. It keeps the smell in for at least a full day. The important thing is that wherever you put the poop in has a fitted lid I think. Some people might use fancier stuff like diaper genies?? but that's super expensive here and not common.
A scratching thing is your cat's bff! Darcy has one of these triangles, which he took to immediately (I'd bought it for my other cat years ago and he never used it). My mom also made him one of the regular ones like this, but he only uses the carpeted base as a scratcher 🤷‍♀️
If you have plants, you need to be careful because many indoor plants are toxic to cats. I was super worried about it because I do have several of those, but luckily Darcy doesn't want to chomp down on my plants. But it's something you have to watch out for, and if you're too worried, get rid of them or put them somewhere the cat can't reach. AND get him a little planter with cat grass he can munch on! That way he'd be less inclined to look for a tasty plant.
A lot of cat toys are going to be a waste of money. Start with a wand, if you can get two wands to switch them up, even better. You can improvise a slow feeder ball and other types of puzzles with cardboard tubes to see if your cat likes that! Try DYI toys before buying something expensive. They say cats love water fountains too, but they're also expensive and what if your cat doesn't love it? Also, catnip? Neither of my cats gives a crap about that.
It's more work, but it's better if you don't let them to feed freely, especially if they're indoors and neutered. What I do is play 5-10 minutes with him before feeding him. Also, you're supposed to feed 3-4 times a day a certain amount according to the cat's weight... HA. I feed Darcy a spoonful of moistened food every three hours. It makes no difference if I give him more food in one meal - he's still going to want to eat in three hours (and might throw up because, gremlin). That's about 8 times a day in total.
They say the only way to get a cat to stop waking you up at night is to ignore them... but how can you do that if they're trashing up the place?? It's not going to happen. BUT try to make it harder for them to mess up the place, and try to hold on anyway. So like, I feed him every three hours even when he'd like to be fed every one and a half. It's going to suck, I'm still holding on to hope that it might change lol.
You're going to want to brush him, and you might try to clip his nails but... it doesn't make that much of a difference tbh. Do not declaw him.
Okay I think that's pretty much it, this is long enough 🙈 To end on a positive note, if you're feeling alone and you're up to the task, pets are your little buddies; if you struggle with your mental health, they might help in giving you purpose and grounding. But at least to me having this cat pretty much feels like having a toddler (including the constant babble!), and... that's work 😅

grumpy shit under fold
Feeling so fucking crushed tbh. Maybe it's the 2:30am insomnia (which isn't that bad I know). Maybe it's the general feeling of having Too Much to do.
I had like a genuinely really positive day at work - a client fed back how great I was, in front of my head of department. My juniors said they were happy how the project went. This is genuinely huge, because I love love this job, and I am still in probation and I want to pass.
And I tried to celebrate myself! And it gets met with "well duh of course you'll pass probation" like okay haha yeah probably but. I haven't sold anything in, and I'm about five skills behind everyone else on my level. I've never managed anyone before, and it's been over a year since I worked with advertisers directly.
Then we had a great MOTW game, but I felt like I was struggling with my character class cause it didn't feel like it fit the character I wanted play. The keeper said we could change characters at this point, so I was looking, and my friend was looming over my shoulder and I felt so pressured and stressed
I know it's really stupid to get stressed about a ttrpg. I like doing them with my friends, DND is amazing, but I am finding it difficult to relax at all right now, and feel loads of weird pressure.
I also just straight up can't fucking read - no glasses, no energy, and background noise of people talking and I literally stop being able to follow lines horizontally. I can read the individual words, but it's like my eyes won't move side to side anymore.
So I was like struggling to read the different options and I felt embarrassed about it, and they were looming and I love this friend but they can be Very opinionated about what other people should do so I was like "I'm just looking right now" like dude I'm sick, it's after midnight, I don't own a rulebook of this and I can't fucking read so it's taking all my energy. He gets rejection sensitive
So he leaves me, everyone is chatting, I'm looking. I decide now isn't the time and I can stick the class out and maybe the character will die soon, and I can start again anyway. It'll be fun.
But then everyone is like convincing me I should change?? And then my friend just says "you just can't be bothered"
And it just flicked the switch in my brain and now I'm lying awake in The Hole like
Yeah I'm lazy piece of shit.
There is so much stuff I haven't got done. And everyone knows. Like. I haven't painted the ceiling yet, or rode my bike, or cleaned the alleyway, or combined my pensions, or booked a holiday, or vacuumed the bedroom since last week, or changed the sheets, or sorted the laundry, or finished my privacy certificate at work, or emailed that client about their backfill, or worked on my novel, or contacted the Brighton writing group, or meal prepped that chicken, or been to the gym three times this week.
And people keep asking me, and I haven't done it, whatever it is, cause I'm a lazy piece of shit.

((Hi! Sorry about the absence, I'm trying to adjust to a new work schedule and I've been very tired.
Essentially, because I'm just subbing in at the school wherever they need me (and they haven't really needed teachers, unfortunately), I've basically been following a schedule of: Go in at 10:20am to help in the cafeteria until 1:15pm (technically work doesn't start until 10:45, but I get there early and eat lunch with the girls in the middle school ^^;). Come home for about an hour, then leave again to work custodial from 3-7 (or sometimes 8 or 9, though technically we could work until 11 if they asked and we wanted to). Mind you, there are no breaks with either job AND they're both very hectic, especially because the school is doing a TON of construction work, which means having to run back and forth from the middle school to the high school through the whole first shift trying to get dishes done and food taken back and blah blah blah. Then, for custodial, they pair my sister and I up to try to clean a whole section in the 4 or so hours we're there (which is usually in the elementary and includes: 15 or so classrooms (each with their own bathroom and a section that needs to be vacuumed as well as a section that needs to be swept/mopped), 3 bathrooms (not counting the ones in the classrooms- these are ones in the halls), 3 offices (one has two rooms, one has 4 rooms, and the other is the main office so it has- not counting the main entry way once you go in the door, the two short halls, the copier area, or the mail area because those aren't behind separate doors- 7 personal offices (each about the size of my bedroom) a kitchen area, and a bathroom), and the elementary gym and elementary cafeteria. Then you have to sweep the halls (there are 4 in the section we usually get), vacuum the 4 rugs by the doors to outside, and mop the edges of each of the halls. So... it's a lot to do in just 4 hours, even for 2 people, and there's essentially no down time, like I said, in EITHER of those jobs. So it's basically, aside from an hour or so in between from when we get home around 1:30 to when we have to leave around 2:30 (assuming we don't get home late from the first job, which we usually do) just... running from 10:45 in the morning to 7 or later at night. We also never finished unpacking because we've been sick off and on since November (more so sick than not tbh). I know plenty of ya'll have much more hectic schedules, I'm sure! So please don't think I'm trying to discount that! I just... am very much worn out while I'm trying to adjust to all of this. It's gonna take a bit. But at least they're paying us better here than at our last jobs, so that's good!
Anyway- just wanted to explain that things still aren't settled from when we moved in November, everything has been a big adjustment and we're still working through it all. Hopefully things will get a bit more settled soon and I can be back around slightly more steadily, at least, but I don't want to make any promises just yet for obvious reasons ^^; I'm just gonna do what I can when I can without overwhelming myself or making this feel like another job to tend to. I do very much miss writing, though...
I love ya'll and I hope you're doing alright <3 Take care and try to get rest when ya can! <3))

Omg I just had more thoughts.
Do you think that when they first had Maya, they struggled with her not wanting or being able to do certain things? Like when Kat and Nat were young in the RR they just simply had to do what was asked. Like if they tell you to learn something, you practice until you do it perfectly. If they want you to eat or take something, you do. You simply comply or die.
So I imagine that for them to have Maya in their home for the first time and her maybe not liking some food or her wanting to learn something but not being good at it, they kind of had to realize like, wow she has the choice to simply not do it.
Like of course in their adult life they discovered all this for themselves and got to have preferences for stuff and make choices, but I imagine that to see a child, that they’re responsible for, in that position is different.
I think they definitely had those moments a lot. They had been around Clint's kids a lot, of course, so they know a bit about what it's like, but to have a child actually tell them they don't really like the meal they made them is something else.
The first time, Nat may have reacted too quickly and told Maya that she didn't have a choice. Eat this or go to bed hungry. But then she heard herself, and she realized she was protecting her own upbringing--that she hated--onto her daughter. So the next time Maya visibly cringed at the food they made her, Nat told her to just grab something else if she didn't like it.
Tbh both Kat and Nat, and Maya had to figure out these things, because growing up in an orphanage, Maya didn't have a choice most of the time either. To keep nearly 100 kids in a building without chaos required order. She learned to do things there that she may not necessarily like (vacuuming, cleaning her room, etc) but were necessary. She couldn't say she didn't like dinner there either, because the kitchen only made one thing for all kids.
Mostly though, Kat and Nat are so happy she gets to make those choices. Especially when she got older and wanted to go out with her friends, like to the mall or a concert. They were like: wow, she can do whatever she wants

Auctober 7: Hyperfocus
Hyperfocus can be really helpful when I've got some big project to do for school, but it's annoying for everyone else 😅 I've gotten in fights with my mom because she'd want me to stop in the middle of writing an essay to wash the dishes, or expect me to keep an eye on my toddler brother while I'm editing a video. It was really difficult for me to explain to her that, no, I CAN'T stop writing my essay to wash the dishes.
This may have more to do with transitioning from one task to another 😗 but if I'm forced to do something OTHER THAN what I'm hyperfocused on, my body language often gives away the fact that I'm mildly frustrated, and I've been scolded for being unpleasant to be around. ("Oh, SoRrY that I cooked DINNER for this family.")
After a while, my parents have come to accept this side of me and they will do little things to sorta ease the transition 😌
Like: "I know you're in Cleaning Mode right now, and you've done a great job so far, but we need to leave in 15 minutes so we don't miss our dinner reservation."
Acknowledging that I was in the middle of something makes me less frustrated than being told to drop whatever I'm doing to do something else. I'll be thinking: "I still need to vacuum when we get home," in the back of my mind, but I can at least sit down and enjoy a meal with the family.
Or they take a moment to figure out what's ACTUALLY going on.
"Are you upset about something, or is your mind just elsewhere?"
"Oh, I'm just thinking about the things I still need to sew after dinner."
Or, in cases where I just CANNOT turn myself away from whatever I'm doing, they just do whatever thing without me. (I've skipped dinner a few times.)
So yeah 😅 Hyperfocus is a blessing and a curse. I'm kinda scared to have children tbh, because I feel like I'd get so wrapped up in filing my taxes that I'd forget to change their diaper or something.

Hi!! I'm a little shy but here goes....
Okay so I'm 5'2 (ik pretty short) I like all sorts of music from artist like conan gray, keshi, dpr ian, the weeknd, Olivia rodrigo, and ofc kpop, jpop and music in Spanish (Spanish being my native language) as for my fav colors I love anything as long as it's in pastel <3 also I'm a cancer so I'm a very emotional person and I tend to hold grudges, and I'm also a bit hot headed at times I get upset kinda easily 😭 (hope this doenst make me sound like a bad person 😭) i have an obsession with anything hello kitty or sanrio related items, I have a whole plushie collection in my room along with my kpop album and pc collection. I lost count on how many albums I have but I'm sure it way past 20 😭 I love the coquette aesthetic it's literally my bed room vibe, It's clean and organized which I think is also part of my personality is keeping things neatly and organized. I also love make up I have tons of it and I love taking care of my skin, korean skin care products got rid of my acne and I find it essential to keep my skin clear. Some dislikes of mine are people who fail to understand and respect my boundaries. I also don't like flashy colors or neon colors. I love boba and sweet things. I'm also a dog type of person rather than cats (don't get me wrong I love cats) I just prefer dogs instead. And my love language is physical touch, lots of skin ship and words of affirmation <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i match you with... soobin!
okay hear me out... soobin who buys you everything hello kitty, be it plushies, puzzles, clothes, just bc it reminds him of you. he also bought u a little hamper for u to kepe your plushies in! also he probably doesnt keep track of the sanrio characters names, just calls them based off what they look like. "umm... kitty... pink bunny... black bat.... hahaha....." he TRIES like really does! to remember their names but he cant FOR THE LIFE OF HIM LOL.
soobin is honestly so unorganized (same goes with the rest of txt boys so whats new tbh) and so u just walk around and youll see a vacuum thats like?? so out of place? in the dining room?? its fine tho, yell at him a couple times and he'll always remember to put it back in place.
skin care days with soobin!!! he loves his skin care tbh. he may be messy with it, but thats what makes it more fun hehe. he buys you so much skincare you probably dont even use half of it... also he will let you do his makeup if u want:) or he'll do urs! except he'll mess up BADLY. also boba dates!!
sure, soobin isnt so touchy in public as hes not very big on pda- makes him mad awkward, but expect at least an arm snaked around your waist!! cuddles are very popular at home too.

a list of things I do to keep my home clean that my parents never taught me because they're neurotypical neat freaks
I keep the laundry basket just. out. its at the foot of my bed so all my dirty clothes get into it
same with the trash can. things have to be as easy as possible for me. I had to get rid of my bathroom trash that had a lid on it because I wouldn't take the step to open it
have two sets of sheets. when you go to wash one immediately replace with the second set. I promise this is the way.
I have an over the door shoe organizer for all the miscellaneous shit you need sometimes but not often. hammer and nails/screws, flashlight, extra charging cables, batteries, electrical tape, you know the stuff.
I fill up a liter bottle ever week and set it behind my cats primary drinking container. when I notice it's low I just refill it right there. easy peasy
I also use that low water cue to check her automatic food dispenser. every time. yes multiple times a week. otherwise I'll never check it and then suddenly it's out and I have to go to the store when I really don't have the time.
I focus on one room every week to keep clean. I know this isn't feasible for everyone for a variety of reasons but last week I cleaned the bathroom. this week I'm going to focus on the living room. next week I'll do my bedroom. this does not really include general daily tidying up it's just the actual cleaning with soap and water and a vacuum/dust
I have kitchen cleaning supplies in the kitchen and bathroom cleaning supplies in the bathroom under both sinks. tbh it's the same stuff except the bathroom has toilet cleaner and the kitchen has dishwasher detergent. if you have multiple bathrooms consider keeping cleaning supplies in all of them! maybe it seems like a waste or excessive but I think it will help you actually clean if you struggle to get started with the task
I really want to buy new fun skincare stuff all the time. to curb this I have a little tray on my dresser that everything needs to fit into. if it's full I can't buy anything new or I need to get rid of something. this really helps me keep the stuff I actually use and love vs the stuff that isn't working for me. the only exceptions from the tray are the large bottles of micellar water, sunscreen, and body lotion.

HEY WAIT A MINUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
having shitty tidiness habits doesn't mean i have to be doomed to live a lifetime of clutter and disorganization!
i can literally just pay somebody to clean my home! and if im not living in my own place (which i'm not), i can pay to have somebody clean my ROOM!
like, that's a thing!
and if i don't have a lot of bills (which i don't at the moment, on account of I Live With My Mommy), it wouldn't be prohibitively expensive to have somebody come in once every couple of weeks to tidy my room for me!
now, i'm not NECESSARILY saying I plan or want to do this. tbh i'm not sure I'd be totally comfortable with a stranger being all up in my personal space, even if they're working for a ~reputable agency~. (although i guess i could potentially find a family friend who'd be willing to do it? i think i'd be more comfortable with a family friend).
but just knowing that it's a realistic option is SO comforting!
and like! I imagine i'd only really need help with the ~tidying~ tasks. like, I can vacuum. I can spray cleaner around the bathroom surfaces and wipe/rinse them down. I can clean mirrors and wipe windows.
But putting my painting stuff away when I'm done with it?? yikes. putting my clothes in the hamper instead of on the floor??? what a dream. taking dishes back downstairs after i'm done eating? straightening up my bookshelf? putting literally anything back where it belongs when i'm through using it????
im a DISASTER.
but just because I'M a disaster doesn't mean my SPACE has to be disastrous! Because I! Can! Pay! Someone! To! Do! It! For! Me!
Just like some people pay somebody else to change the oil in their car! Just like some people have their groceries delivered instead of going to the store theirself! Just like I use uber since I'm scared to drive!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOW! honestly what a REVALATION!!!
Did you guys know this???? am I the last person to figure this out???
YOU CAN PAY PEOPLE TO ASSIST YOU WITH THE LIFE SKILLS YOU'RE DEFICIENT IN!!! YOU DON'T HAVE TO SUFFER THROUGH YOUR OWN INEPTITUDE LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO my GOD can you IMAGINE??? somebody riding around with a jacked up car that breaks down every time they go anywhere just because they don't personally know how to fix their car????
some people know how to work on their own cars! good for them! some people don't! they can pay someone who does!
some people know how to keep their living space tidy! good for them! some people don't! they can pay someone who does!
i wanna shout this shit from the rooftops oh my god!!!!!!

Carmilla the Youtube show
The sun is shining, it is 5:52pm and I have decided that nothing will happen this evening except the completion of this show so I have pot noodles and a fiery desire to forget reality so let's goooo
1 E20 "Sock Puppets and European History"
Flashback material with sock puppets jesus
Carmella's sock puppet is like the Potter Puppet Pals Voldemort
Ma'am I'm fairly sure that in the original text you do definitely eat those girls but I get that you can't be the bad guy in this Canonically Queer Vampires Are Great retelling
Carmilla became a Hozier song yo
Her mother is the dean, right
KNEW IT
S1 E21 "Strategic Planning"
Carmilla slurping blood and watching Twilight is a mood
Carmilla | S1 E22 "Afterbite"
Tbh the mother in the book is a huge Question Mark and maybe I missed it because I read most of the book in sub zero temperatures but she orchestrated Carmilla's friendships, right? So she was either also a vampire or a very dedicated servant
Oh god just kiss already
S1 E23 "We Need To Talk About Carmilla"
I'm with her as ethics as an attempt to impose order
Carmilla | S1 E24 "Breaking Up (With An Amazon) Is Hard To Do"
It really bugs me that you can't tell what season it is from the clothes they're wearing
This is nearing Carry On Film levels but caring about someone =/= it's your job to keep them safe is in fact a salient observation
S1 E25 "Basic Parasitology"
'Nobody likes theatre students' ahahah
I take back the comments about the good lines, 'holy crapsticks' should be an illegal phrase
S1 E26 "The Standard Issue"
'I don't want to be Susan anymore' okay why do the good emotional lines always follow the shit ones
'I've been marked for death by a vampire cabal and you are fighting with your best friend.' Potato tomato
S1 E27 "Required Reading"
The library ATE someone that is the way to go
Okay what if people are watching these videos are they just assuming it's a prank
Carmilla. Wear pyjamas. Those jeans are not comfortable for sleeping. also. Carmilla in pyjamas
S1 E28 "Blame Enough For All"
GET YOUR SHOES OFF THE BED
and seriously why are you live broadcasting this shit
Did Laura just fall asleep flat on her face
S1 E29 "PTSD & Brownies"
I too clean when anxious, although you would not know this to survey the current state of my living quarters
The curly haired girl vacuumed AROUND Carmilla who didn't wake up what
Sidenote: either someone in the next door house is putting up a shelf or having sex I'll update you
Oh it's stopped almost straight away
So presumably...
S1 E30 "Monsters, Lies & Videotapes"
LaFontaine is pragmatic in a crisis, I appreciate that
S1 E31 "Of Hearts And Holy Hand Grenades"
So Laura got bit and still nothing's happened except cat dreams? I had a cat dream the other day. Do I have cute goth roommates? No.
I'm with the redhead, even I do my homework when the world is ending
Laura you put on a random necklace you'd never seen before having spent half a semester badly battling the forces of evil COME ON
S1 E31 "Of Hearts And Holy Hand Grenades"
I'm with the redhead, even I do my homework when the world is ending
Laura you put on a random necklace you'd never seen before having spent half a semester badly battling the forces of evil COME ON
S1 E31 "Of Hearts And Holy Hand Grenades"
Got distracted by some weather idk Carmilla's mother is around?
S1 E33 "Pep Rally"
'There is a whole campus full of people out there' and none of them want to get involved mate have you met students
Oh I was right
S1 E33 Do Not Go Into The Light
I don't know what flunking out is but it sounds American for 'was shit at uni and the uni told me to fuck off'
S1 E35 "Heroic Vampire Bull****"
Are these people being cute gross
Why does my university have a heel dancing club but not an alchemy club
'When the chips are down you're kinda like a bro' that is friendship right there
S1 E36 "Life Goes On"
Betty is me. entirely.
LaFontaine is dating a computer ghost of course they are
If Carmilla is vampire why'd Laura hold up her head when feeding her blood if she doesn't breathe can she choke??
okay yeah that was cute
'I was using the ancient book as a bathmat' fair
THOUGHTS OF A VERY TIRED, HIGHLY STRUNG VIEWER
I'd rather flatshare with Carmilla than most of my current household because at least she's pleasant to look at when she doesn't clean up after herself. and also is a goth lesbian I GUESS. also top stuff making a TV show using one camera angle and an extremely old Sapphic vampire story as your source material, that was a gamble and I appreciate it

I want to play Euro Truck Somulator 2 so bad but it keeps giving my computer Blue Screen of Death :( Even tho I don't acyually see the blue screen, but even my GPU says it's one, and I don't know how to solve the problem. No other game does this, and it seems to be a overheating problem but I already use a table fan to cool down my PC so I don't know what else should I do.
The next option is to upgrade my PC. But the mainboard is already old enough that there's no point in buying a better CPU when it's only slightly better than my current CPU, which means I should get a new CPU AND a new mainboard if I wanted to have a better system. I also need more RAM for this PC, that alone could solve the problem cos I currently have only 8Gb as that was still "a lot" back in 2016 when I built this PC. But now it's really not enough, but I'm not sure yet if you can mix different RAM sizes with each other, e.g. I have 2x4GB but idk if it's okay to buy e.g. 2x8GB and have 20Gb of RAM that way, or if I just should go for 2 or 4 new ones and have 16GB or 32GB of RAM...
And the next problem is: money. I looked it up and there's an online shop selling bundles of CPU and mainboard and RAM and those were like, 400€ at minimum and while that is not that bad when you can have part-payment... well, it's still plenty of money/month.
But tbh my other games would really benefit from an upgrade. Planet Zoo is awesome but it does get laggy the more traffic I have in the game, and CPU sounds like its dying. I also really need a new chassis cos I got a new GPU a few years ago and it barely fit inside the chassis and I suspect there's problems with the air circulation because of that. The chassis fans also have manual settings for fans, like, actual physical switches and I have already set some of them to High but I don't like that because then they get so loud I start getting headaches from the noise alone.
Maybe I could start with getting a new, bigger chassis with quieter fans and more space for the air circulation. I think I should also buy a bottle of compressed air and go through the insides of the PC with that. I do vacuum the insides every now and then and it's not been that long time since I did that the last time, but then I was out of compressed air because I tend to empty a whole bottle when I get to cleaning my PC with it...
