I just really need to vent:
So i am in the process of adding a bunch of show ponies to my chat room and the best way to do it is by opening several horses' pages in new tabs, copying their ID, going to a tab that has the buddy chat open, and then posting them. This method has worked forever. I am currently using my dad's super old ASUS laptop and only recently it has decided to let it's age catch up with it. I miss my "old" computer, which is actually newer than said current computer. I got it in 2015 brand new as a high school graduation present but in summer of 2016 i accidentally stepped on it and shattered the screen. It still worked perfectly fine besides the touch screen, which i had to turn off. Sent it in to Best Buy (where my dad got it) get the screen replaced about a month or so later. Got it back and after a couple months, the new screen started falling out and i had to tape it in using Kinesio Tape, since that's all i had. I had to tape around all but one edge. Then came WiFi issues GALORE. To the point that there is literally no longer a WiFi setting/option on it anymore. It literally disappeared. I cannot select anything to do with WiFi because it doesn't exist. I had to lug around a 100+ foot long Ethernet cable for over a year (Including stuffing this massive cord in my carry on luggage once when i flew to my best friend's house in Florida AND it got me stopped by airport security... Thankfully i explained and they let me through. Didn't get stopped on the way back home). Eventually, about a year and a half to two years ago, my dad got a new computer for his new job and got everything off his old one for me to use so we could get rid of the giant cable plaguing the house (the router was in my parents room and this cable was so dang long, it could reach to EVERY ROOM IN OUR 2 STORY HOUSE). I planned on just using my old computer for art, writing, and photography. Welp, I cannot use ANY Microsoft programs on it anymore for whatever reason, just won't open anything. And now after not using it regularly for a few years, the left side of the screen is glitchy and it won't stay on :'( I hope i can get everything off of it soon so i don't lose whatever are and photos are on it. And sending it back is out of the question because A) I don't have the money, B) It's been too long, and C) it just isn't worth it...

So now, my current computer, my dad's old one, is starting to load super slowly and i wanna cry :( It's effecting my game play because it's so tedious to sort anything, which is why i was super sad when the pasture snaffoo happened because i have over 1000 mares to hand sort. And now adding horses to chat rooms is being annoying. It's also making editing photos super hard, to the point where i have just been uploading pictures to my phone to edit. That, and this computer is too old to be compatible with the software i wanted. I wish i could afford a new computer but way too expensive to happen any time soon. Sorry for the novel of complaints, i am just so frustrated... Thanks for reading if you did.
