Modafinil on Bipolar

I have been in my depressive episode for a few last weeks. My regular meds* doesn’t seem to help much, unless the one I take to help me sleep** by totally weakening my joints. I don’t know if that’s what really happens, that’s how I feel. Like a roofie.

I was even lazier than that goose cartoon character which I can’t remember what his name is. And the voices started to sing in my left ear. Perhaps my left ear has a better audience or the crazier moshing pit, that makes those virtual bands keep playing there. I found a good way to get rid of that sound, by slapping my left ear. The songs will go, or perhaps just covered by the buzzing sound my slapping caused. Not a good idea.

Then I realized there was one medicine I took without prescription to make this playlist stop. Its name is Armodafinil. Armodafinil is good for consumption along with other bipolar treatment. I can’t understand why my psychiatrist refused my request for this medicine.

So I started my search but I couldn’t find Armodafinil, but I found Modafinil instead, which is something quite close. Modafinil initially is given to treat ADHD. My Modafinil arrived today, and I’m feeling much better already after taking one this morning. My mood begins rising, and I have a great feeling that I will get my postponed jobs done today.

Why No Billionaire Becomes Batman

Facts

According to Billionaire Mailing List, there are hundreds of billionaire in the United States alone. But not a single one of them becomes Batman. Why is it so hard to be the Batman? The article you’re about to read will tell you why? And not by saying that he’s only a comic character.

He Lives In A Jail

Bruce Wayne almost lost his purpose of becoming  Batman when he found that his parent’s killer has committed suicide in his apartment.

Batman lives in a jail he created himself, he will lose on purpose if the bad guys vanished. That’s why he also put all of his arch enemies into Arkham Asylum because he believes that crime is an illness that can be cured. But that also gives him the opportunities to re-capture his enemies again and again. He creates a perfect loop where he can do as much repetition as possible.

No billionaire wants a life like that. Never mind being a Batman, living like Bruce Wayne just seems to have become an impossible task.

Batman Hates Guns

He never uses guns before his first appearance in BVS, right? Wrong! He used guns on his early appearances until the publisher decided to stop Batman using any guns. That decision was made to make Batman more family friendly. And I guess that was a good decision judging by how popular Batman is until now.

Later, the story writings put special attention to show that Batman actually hates guns because his parents killed by a gun.

With today’s gun control issue, do you think any billionaire have the guts facing criminals without any guns?

Overrated Popularity?

Everybody knows Batman, even those who don’t “know”. I hear the statement that “Batman flies” occasionally. We know that’s wrong, but hey, at least that person knows Batman. And I bet he never heard of Black Lightning. Anyway, Chris Nolan did a great job showing how Bruce Wayne’s transformation seems realistic.

With so much media attention, billionaires with bruised faces will surely be easily suspected as Batman. We know Batman’s pieces of equipment are not cheap.

His Effort

Among the god-like personas, Batman stands tall. His contingency plans never fail. He’s a great negotiator and psychiatrist that makes him can talk someone until surrender his gun, without a gun.

What makes him special is that he gained all that without any mantra, exposed to something that mutated him, came from other planet or had an accident, well… unless you include the alley’s incident. But still, he didn’t overcome his ability on the next day, right?

In the real life, a billionaire efforts best is what makes him a billionaire. And that’s making money. I don’t think any billionaire can multi-task and split his focus on both martial art training and making money. Or can he?

He’s A Sick Person

Batman is indeed a sick person. He loves going out at night dresses like a bat, beating criminals to a pulp. He even pushed himself into danger he knows only has 0.01% chance of success.

I remember the one scene when he jumped right into Deadshot’s firing line. And guess what? He succeeded with fatal damage. According to my psychiatrist, that’s called sado. An urge for pain and violence.

A billionaire will surely visit his psychiatrist to make sure that he’s always mentally healthy because he has too much at stake. Just hope he’s not seeing The Scarecrow.

Foot Note:

The facts stated above make me and Batman only billions of dollars and excessive painful pieces of training apart.

Must-Have WordPress Plugins to Make Money Online

MacBook Upgrade

My Brief Opening

Make money online needs effort, there is no such thing as easy money. Even those who born with a glamorous wealth know that they are enjoying the fruit of someone’s hard work. The difference is whether the works were hard or smart. There will always be a catch in every article like the one you’re reading right now.

My catch is to make you look at the advertisements displayed here. Then the advertiser will pay me, you don’t have to, and that makes me wonder why the people seeking for free information even use the Adblocker. It’s like watching your neighbor strip but painted their window frame black. You can always send me some donation by clicking the donation button or the Patreon button if you’re so generous. 🙂

Why WordPress?

WordPress is intuitive and easy to use so you can start making money sooner. One thing that addresses WordPress distinctive among other blogging platforms is that it has a lot of ready to use plugins. Each plugin offers a special role to your WordPress website. Although it’s very tempting to use all the plugins at once, it’s not a very good idea to do.

Get WordPress here.

Too many plugins mean too many scripts that your web server and your visitors’ web browser need to run. In this case, it’s essential to pick only the minimum amount of must-have WordPress plugins which offer all-inclusive use on your WordPress website.

Portrait Pro

We will be discussing Portrait Pro software, the high-end industry standard that makes Camera 360 and other photo retouching app on your phone looks like a rubber duck compared to Titanic, despite the fact that the duck is the one that floats. Portrait Pro is not a newcomer to the world of digital photography even it’s not that old either.

Read about Darkr, a photo app with film feel.

It’s been a secret weapon for photographers to retouch their close up photos to meet the studio standard. By using Portrait Pro, the retouched photo will come very natural that most of the clients believe it was just the photographer’s skill presented her looks better in print than in flesh.

Also, read Lightroom online tutoring pt.02.

What Makes Portrait Pro Natural

Portrait Pro uses shading, just like a professional makeup artist contouring the model’s face. We will not be covering much about contouring, you can visit [this MUA website](https://rtdisoho.com/MUA/) instead.

This tool gives us better results than chiseling or liquifying our photo. Besides chiseling and liquifying are both needs high precision and very time-consuming.

First, it will detect the face on our photo, and then make some outlining for us to modify, such as eyebrows, chin, cheek, and lips. It’s very intuitive from the first time you’re using it.

It also let us manipulate the lighting to add dimension to a dull and flat photo. Such as those taken with a direct flashlight. Believe it or not, if you ever heard or practice even only Rembrandt lighting, you’re a halfway to making a good close up photo using Portrait Pro.

Destructive VS Non-Destructive

You can treat Portrait Pro as both destructive and non-destructive photo editor. You can always save over the original, or save as another file. You can also save the setting you like as the preset to use on other photos. This is a good option if you’re working on many photos at once that needs the same setting.

Also, read Lightroom preset for lazy people.

 

Darkr: Photo App With Film Feel

This is the digital photography era, where we can produce and even reproduce a photo instantly. However, people keep trying to achieve the analog effect by creating many filters and apps with the analog feel. Darkr is one of a few succeeds achieving that. Darkr has a Darkroom features including exposure, tint and also dodging/burning to maximize what you have captured either by Darkr app or your phone camera.

Make Money From Home Using Facebook Pt.01

Make Money From Home Using Facebook Pt.01: The Blah Blah Blah

Social Media is known to be the main cause of many procrastination, and Facebook is included. Many say that “playing” Facebook activity is a waste of time. However, I can say that the person is wrong! We can even make Money from home using Facebook. Certainly, people who say Facebook is a waste of time and all that it has not or do not know that we can get money from Facebook.

Also, read here for tips on how to change Facebook theme and color.

Unfortunately, monetizing our Facebook is not as easy as monetizing our website with Google AdSense. Our article this time will explain how we can monetize our Facebook in general. We will discuss in detail and technical in the next few articles.

What You Need

  1. Facebook Account

That’s it! All you need is a valid Facebook account. Valid and legit. So, don’t post anything that’s not yours. Don’t use Klanikova photo if you’re Khumar. Your reader will not buy that. Besides, we need real loyal “friends” to make this method works.

Step by Step To Make Money From Home Using Facebook

Making a new reliable Facebook Page is a hard task to do unless you own a good product brand. So, why don’t we use our own Facebook with thousands of friends already? This is why I mentioned that your Facebook account should be legit and real.

Thousands of your friends will be converted instantly to your new Facebook Page followers, and most likely they won’t be mind to be automatically included in your new page.

This is how we do it:

Converting your personal account to a Page creates a new Facebook Page that’s based on your personal account. You can only convert your profile to a Page once.

  1. Migrate your Facebook profile to a Facebook Business Page using this link.
  2. Follow the instructions given.

Facebook will then migrate your info and some of your photos according to your preferences.

When you convert your personal account to a Page:
  • You’ll have a personal account and a Page after conversion
  • We’ll transfer your profile picture and cover photo to the Page
  • The name on your personal account will become the Page’s name
  • Tools to help you move info from your profile to the Page will be available for 14 days after conversion <— make sure you’re finished tweaking your page less than 2 weeks.
  • You can choose friends from your profile to automatically like your new Page, but posts on your profile won’t be carried over to your new Page
  • You can manage the Page from your personal account <— it’s as easy as switching accounts. If you have multiple Facebook accounts already, then this part won’t be confusing at all.

  • You’ll have a personal account and a Page after conversion

This is where the things become tricky (at least for me), we should start separating the posts suitable for the personal profile from the posts for our new business page (or not).

  • We’ll transfer your profile picture and cover photo to the Page

  • The name on your personal account will become the Page’s name

Better set everything before you start the migration, just to make sure your new page has a good starting point. You don’t want your business page named something like “crazy big cock 182”, or do you?

  • You can choose friends from your profile to automatically like your new Page, but posts on your profile won’t be carried over to your new Page

This is a good thing since you want a fresh start for your new page. My suggestion is to leave out all the people who rarely make contacts with you whatsoever. These guys most likely are not your potential “buyer”.

Macaulay Culkin Instagram

Macaulay Culkin appeared on March 3, 2018, on Fallon’s show entitled “Macaulay Culkin responds to Home Alone Conspiracy Theories”. Yes, it was a comedy show and Culkin appeared goofy all the time. This show is where I found out about Macaulay Culkin’s Instagram, Culkamania (which he admitted had no photos in it) and later he took the first photos into his account with Jimmy Fallon.

We know that Jimmy Fallon is a great comedian hosting The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. That fact doesn’t make this news less entertaining. Be able to see our childhood idol on screen, Macaulay Culkin quite entertains me to a certain level. Macaulay Culkin has not been on screen or heard since his great movies, Home Alone and My Girl.

Read and get My Girl here.

Here is the show:

 And here is the snap:

macaulay culkin instagram

Believe it or not, Home Alone movies (the first two) have been on my watching list with my family every Christmas. Well, most of the Christmas.

Culkin has rarely seen later unless when the news about his drug problem arose. Some said that he hit the ground so fast he lost his wealth. That’s quite debatable since his current net-worth is now “still” around 15 million (according to express.co.uk).
