Editing A Website With The Divi Builder & Divi Theme
Getting Started With The Divi Builder All that I can remember of this dream is that I was on a computer on the internet using the Divi Builder & Divi WordPress theme to edit a website. Using The Divi Theme Builder I remember adding and / or enabling some modules on a page, and adjusting theme. (more…) “”

Okay hear me out, I've had a crazy impulsive idea and I want to pitch it:
Eugenesis audiobook. Edited. Voices. Music. Sound effects.
This is a mad task. It's mad. No one should do this.
Let's talk about how I'd do this.
I've not hosted a major collaborative project in a long time, but I am very good at it. I completed 36 multi animator projects, two zines and a tarot deck, all three having been successfully funded through Kickstarter. I am real good as a director.
I think the way to produce it is to divy it up into individual jobs so the jobs are manageable.
Task zero: pre production
Gotta go through the whole book and mark like. All the dialogue and it's characters. Colour code it or something. All soundwave dialogue. All rev tone dialogue. For the sake of the voice actors and the editors. Mark out which sections will be narrated by whom. Notate parts where specific audio is needed.
Task one: narration
My initial feeling is that there should be one narrator, for consistency. This is also the largest and most time consuming, probably difficult job (it's like six-8 hours of reading at least... It's exhausting) so I feel sort of obligated to do it, as someone who regularly produces audio content. A secondary idea would be to split the narration into parts, either as they are in the book, or by scene. The book has lots of breaks where it changes from one scene to a scene somewhere else with different characters without any obvious transition, and potentially using a different narrator could make it clear in that instance that there has been a scene change. Most of these sequences come in and out, a section with deaths head begins and ends and then we return to it and leave it and return and so on, and having the same person continue each of these scenes as they resume would help a listener immediately clue in on what the new setting is.
This would require much more prep work in splitting up the sections first, deciding which follow which, as occasionally they branch, ie, a scene is following a group of characters that then splits into multiple groups. This is doable, and would reduce the load on the narration as job. It's potential.
For the sake of consistency and editing, even though the voice will be done by other people, the narrator should still read the dialogue, so that the editor can most easily find what to replace with the new audio without always referring to the text.
Task two: voicework
There are so many fucking characters in Eugenesis. So many. Many having only a few lines. However, a variety of very different voices is a transformers staple. If someone does voicework they should do every line spoken by that character. If they do any other characters, even bit parts, they should do a very different performance. Some of these can probably be edited in audacity to have a robot-y timber or echo or something. Like soundwave especially. I think each characters audio should be in a separate audio file collected and then sent to the editor.
Task three: editing
Split into two parts. First is editing in all the new dialogue, which may change the length of the full audio. Once that is replaced, it's time for sound effects (there are some great collections of tf specific sounds like transformation tssch-tssch-tssch or laser sounds or big robot footsteps) explosions, distant gunshots, water, etc. Then finally, mood music.
Editing is a job that can easily be split between multiple people in sections.
This is a stupid project. It's a massive undertaking. It would be so long and take so many fucking people to do. But imagine me posting an eight hour fully produced audiobook of eugenesis to my YouTube of 150,000 subscribers who do not want it.
This is objectively hilarious.
Anyway. Raise your hand if you're obsessed with eugenesis enough to want to do this

Here's a question. How much of pokemon have you played? (Mainline series, side series, etc) :3
Pokemon long rambling activated :3
Seriously long post
So before my mom banned pokemon from our house (probably when I was around 7?) we loved Pokémon. We never had a video game console but my cousins did. So technically pokemon stadium is my first pokemon game! Only ever the rentals haha. But we loved playing the mini games.
When my mom banned pokemon and sold all our plushies (rip butterfree plush, I'll get you back some day) it was a pokemon drought. Until my cousin went to college and gave me her pokemon card collection. (Supposedly the halo mew is worth $100?! But I treasure them) and the brainrot infected me once again.
I started learning everything I could about game mechanics. This was when Gen 5 came out in Japan so you didn't even have the English translations yet! I made lists of what my teams would be in each game, how to divy up the HMs, how to get certain egg moves. All without playing a single game lol.
And then I found playr.org. It had all the retro game boy games. Including Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Crystal. Unfortunately the saving system wasn't so great and got corrupted a few times (rip shiny ekans) but I did mostly play Silver or Crystal. (This is where the name Wren for my character was born!)
I craved more but I didn't know how to download emulators safely :( I watched playthroughs to get by. To this day let's plays are a comfort source for me <3
By the way I did all of this without my parents ever knowing. I was very good at hiding it from them XD
I think it was finally like freshman year of college when I figured out the pokemon fan games. I'm talking Uranium, Phoenix Rising demo, Ethereal Gates demo, Solar Light Lunar Dark, Sage, aka non emulator ones. Basically any I could get my hands on. I also started drawing fakemon in my sketchbook. I kind of want to revisit those some day. I still have the sketchbook somewhere.
Then I figured out emulators FINALLY. At least enough and got an emulator and mystery dungeon explorers of sky, MY BELOVED! I have played through the rom many times. I have a randomizer. Also a few years ago I found Sky Temple for editing the rom aka different starter pokemon. The discord server is always working on making new sprites so you can be any pokemon you want its very wonderful.
Junior year of college, I said I'd had enough. I spent an entire year hyping over Sun and Moon and my bestie/roomie convinced me to treat myself, something I literally never did. I bought a 3DS and Pokemon Sun and never looked back. I loved it. My first real pokemon game. (My parents were not happy when they found out lol). I spent so many hours. I got big into breeding perfect IV pokemon (idk why cause I never did online battles) or shiny breeding. I used to work til 11 pm some nights and before bed I'd just do some breeding. I would have the pokemon in the perfect ball and have all the egg moves and perfect IVs and nature and have the perfect nick name cause I was obsessive like that oof. I got ultra moon when it came out as well and loved it. I also bought pokemon X and Omega Ruby which I enjoyed. But Sun and Ultra Moon I played many times and bred so many perfect pokemon.
I did pick up roms around this time for Heart Gold, Soul Silver, Black and White and the sequels, and maybe Platinum? But they ran really slow on my computer so I never made it far. I preferred playing on my 3ds. But I still played quite a bit of Sky rom.
I was, less excited about Sword and Shield. I saved up a whole year to buy my switch and bought Lets go Eevee, Botw, and Sword when Gen 8 came out. I did inhale the entire game of Sword in one week, but I don't think I ever finished a second playthrough. The story was really disappointing and I did not like the gen 8 pokemon as much. It's hard when you're not a big fan of any of the starter evolutions, cause pressing B for every level up is tedious :(
I did enjoy Lets Go Eevee but after I loaned it to my bestie I had troubled getting back in. The ball throwing was a little off putting.
Oh I also bought Mystery dungeon Rescue Dx and I enjoyed that quite a bit!
Last summer I was struggling a lot with my emotions and frustration with my mom and as a form of therapy started spending money oof. I wanted a second DS so I could trade back and forth and make my life easier. It took a lot of bidding on Goodwill online but I snagged a second 2ds, legit copy of pmd sky! and pmd gates to infinity. And Pokemon Soul Silver! Also I bought the digital versions of gen 1 and 2 before the eshop closed.
I also bought Shining Pearl cause it went super on sale, but after I lent it to my bestie I haven't played since. I actually dont like too many gen 4 pokemon besides Glaceon, Leafeon, and Chatot.
Playing pokemon mystery dungeon on a 3ds instead of a computer keyboard was so much more satisfying. I played through Sky and loved it of course. Then I picked up Gates to Infinity which I never knew the story. I enjoyed it! I was and Oshawott with partner Snivy.
This brings me to last late summer, and the turtle brainrot set in and grew. Less pokemon, more turtles! I debated back and forth whether to get Scarlet or Violet up til the day it released. And then I just didn't. I watched playthroughs though. Seems pretty good and I like a lot of the pokemon, especially after gen 8 when I struggled to find enough to fill out a team of 6. I only like to use pokemon I like. I'm sure I'll get it someday but for now, turtles have my brain.
And that's my pokemon origin story! Still mad about my mom selling all our pokemon plushies. I do still have my cousins pokemon cards and I treasure them <3
I am very adamant about my pokemon having the perfect nick names.
Umbreon is my favorite pokemon <3
Not surprisingly this got very very long. If you made it this far, have a Leppa Berry <3

Can you guys suggest prompts or stuff to draw to see if it sparks some motivation in me?
I'm in more of a Shadamy mood because it's my current OTP, but if you follow me and know what my OTPs are from other fandoms, that's fine too. Divi just wants to draw but nothing comes to mind.
EDIT: AUS ARE SPECIALLY WELCOME! Divi loves all kind of AUs 💕

🍎 and 🍩 for alika and aodh!
Can I say I simply adore how you keep up with my trends it's incredibly sweet and i love u.
🍎 Do they share any features or traits with any family members? Alika: Some friends claim jokingly that Alika and his family are a slightly edited copy of each other, and… it's true. More specifically, Alika is very very similar to his grandmother and Aoide (the unfortunate middle child). As for traits, Alika is an excellent mix between that sagittarius man of his father and the badass behavior of his nana. Aodh: Aodh looks a lot like his father, at least in my opinion. I think he and his older sister (yes he has one) divied their parents' genes between them almost perfectly. I wish I could speak for the traits but in our rp storyline Aodh's father has been missing for 10 years and I know nothing about him. BUT I can say his mother is nothing like him since she's, y'know, kind of nice . A little strange perhaps.
🍩 What's a crime your OC is most likely to commit? What's a crime they're most likely to get arrested for?
Alika: Probably insulting a public official
Aodh: Affray. Just... Affray.
trivia moment: They stole a car and were arrested once. Grantaire was part of the theft

Is Divi Slowing Down Your Website?
Tumblr media
Divi is one of the most popular themes; we like it a lot. In fact, we are using it on this website and many of our clients. Divi is easy to use and has all the features we like / you want. However, left unoptimized, it can slow down your website; you must tweak some things and regularly maintain your website. Regular website maintenance will save you time and energy by fixing minor problems before they become BIG problems that lose you leads and clients. Without regular maintenance, things like broken links can negatively impact the user and potentially cause visitors to leave your site. Regularly updating your DIVI theme and plugins should already be done by your web designer. However, optimizing images and cleaning up your database are often neglected even though they are necessary for a fast and responsive website. A quick and responsive website improves your search engine rankings and drives traffic to your website. Neglecting maintenance can lead to security breaches, broken links, slow load times, and other issues that can hurt your SEO efforts. Keeping your site in good shape can help ensure it stays visible to your target audience. Overall, investing in website maintenance is a wise and necessary step to keep your DIVI website running at optimal performance. Preventing problems is a lot cheaper than fixing them after the fact. Divi may sometimes exhibit slower loading times due to the factors listed below. However, a website's overall performance can be influenced by multiple factors, including server configuration, website setup, third-party plugins, hosting environment, and more. Here are a few reasons why Divi may experience slower loading times: - Feature-Rich Design: Divi is a feature-rich theme with many customization options, modules, and settings. While these features provide flexibility and versatility, they can also add to the theme's overall file size and complexity, potentially impacting loading speed. - Page Builder Overhead: Divi employs a powerful drag-and-drop page builder with its own set of scripts and styles to handle the customization and visual editing capabilities. This can contribute to increased file sizes and additional HTTP requests. - Unoptimized Images: Large or unoptimized images can significantly impact website performance, including the loading speed of your Divi-powered website. Optimize your images by compressing them, reducing their dimensions, and using appropriate file formats. - Third-Party Plugins and Customizations: If you have installed numerous third-party plugins or made extensive customizations to your Divi theme, some may conflict with each other or impact performance. Poorly coded or resource-intensive plugins can slow down your website. If you're experiencing slow loading times on your website due to any of the reasons listed, you likely have other issues as well and will require the expertise of a good web designer to resolve them. DIVI is a powerful tool that can significantly enhance the functionality and aesthetics of your website, but it's important to remember that it's just one piece of the puzzle. There could be issues with your hosting provider, plugins, or even how your site is built, causing the slowdown. A web designer can assess your website as a whole and identify any potential problem areas, ensuring that your website is running smoothly and efficiently. Don't let slow loading times hold back your business - contact fingerprint marketing for help today. If you're experiencing a slow Divi theme, there are several steps you or your website designer and maintenance specialists can take to improve its performance. Use Caching: Implement a caching plugin, such as W3 Total Cache or WP Rocket (we prefer WP Rocket!) The plugins store static versions of your web pages and serve them to visitors. Caching reduces the server load and improves the loading speed of your Divi theme. Install a Caching Plugin. Start by activating a caching plugin, such as W3 Total Cache, WP Rocket, or WP Super Cache. These plugins provide various caching mechanisms and optimization features. By implementing caching techniques and optimizing the caching settings of your Divi theme, you can enhance your website's performance and provide faster loading times for your visitors. Optimize Images: Optimizing images for your website is essential for several reasons: - Large image files can significantly slow down your website. Optimizing images reduces their file size, allowing them to load more quickly, and improving the overall user experience. Studies have shown that users tend to abandon websites that take too long to load, making image optimization crucial for retaining visitors. - Optimized images contribute to a smooth browsing experience. Visitors can navigate the content seamlessly when your website loads quickly. Improved user experience reduces frustration and increases user satisfaction. This positive user experience can lead to higher engagement, longer visit durations, and increased conversions or sales. - Optimizing images is even more critical with the increasing use of mobile devices for web browsing. Mobile connections can be slower, and limited bandwidth may result in slower loading times. By optimizing images, you ensure that your website is mobile-friendly and accessible to a broader range of users. - Optimizing images contributes to overall website performance, positively impacting SEO (search engine optimization) and increasing the likelihood of your website being discovered by search engines and users. Search engines consider page load speed as a ranking factor in their algorithms. Websites that load quickly tend to rank higher in search engine results. Before uploading images to your Divi website, ensure they are appropriately sized for the areas where you plan to use them. Use an image editing tool like Adobe Photoshop, GIMP or online tools like Pixlr or Canva to resize your images to the desired dimensions. Compress your images to reduce their file sizes without compromising visual quality. You can use image compression tools like Adobe Photoshop's "Save for Web" feature, TinyPNG, or JPEGmini. Compress the images before uploading them to your Divi website. Enable lazy loading for images in Divi. Lazy loading ensures that images are only loaded as they come into view when the user scrolls down the page. Various lazy loading plugins are available for WordPress, such as Lazy Load by WP Rocket or a3 Lazy Load, which can be installed and configured in Divi. If you use a content delivery network (CDN) with Divi, make sure your images are served through the CDN. This can help improve image loading times by delivering them from servers located closer to your website visitors. Most CDN providers offer integration instructions that you can follow to set up the CDN with Divi. If you want to improve your WordPress website's speed and performance, use image optimization plugins specifically designed for WordPress, such as Smush or ShortPixel. These plugins automatically compress and optimize images upon upload or can bulk-optimize existing images in your media library without sacrificing quality. A reliable speed plugin can streamline your site's code and reduce load times, significantly impacting the user experience and SEO. Optimizing your images will reduce file sizes and improve load times. By tackling both areas, you can ensure your WordPress images are visually appealing and optimized for performance. Minify and combining your CSS and JavaScript files Minifying and combining CSS and JavaScript files can be beneficial for optimizing the loading speed of your Divi theme. Minification removes unnecessary characters, white spaces, and comments from the code, reducing file sizes. Combining multiple CSS and JavaScript files into fewer files reduces the number of HTTP requests required to load the website. To minify and combine the CSS and JavaScript files in Divi, you can use optimization plugins like Autoptimize, Fast Velocity Minify, or W3 Total Cache, which provide options to enable these optimizations. These plugins typically offer settings to control which files to minify and combine, allowing you to fine-tune the optimization process. It's important to note that while minification and combining can improve loading speed, it's recommended to test the performance impact after applying these optimizations. In some cases, certain CSS or JavaScript files may not be compatible with minification or combining, resulting in broken functionality. Always make backups and test thoroughly to ensure your website continues to function as intended. Reduce Plugin Usage: Excessive use of plugins can impact your website's performance. Review your installed plugins and deactivate or remove any that are unnecessary or redundant. Keep only the essential plugins that contribute to your website's functionality. Here are a number of other things you can do to improve your Divi theme's loading speed / time: - Optimize Database: Regularly optimize and clean up your WordPress database to remove unnecessary data and optimize its performance. Plugins like WP-Optimize or WP Rocket offer database optimization features. - Choose a Reliable Hosting Provider: Ensure that you are using a reputable hosting provider that offers optimized server configurations for WordPress. A reliable hosting provider with good server response times and optimized infrastructure can significantly improve your website's speed. - Enable GZIP Compression: GZIP compression reduces the size of your website's files during transmission, resulting in faster loading times. Most hosting providers offer GZIP compression, which can be enabled through your hosting control panel or by adding code to your .htaccess file. - Disable Unused Features: Divi is a feature-rich theme with various modules and options. If you're not utilizing certain features or modules, consider disabling them to reduce the theme's overhead and improve performance. - Implement a Content Delivery Network (CDN): A CDN stores copies of your website's static files (such as images, CSS, and JavaScript) on servers located worldwide. By serving these files from the nearest server to the user's location, a CDN reduces latency and improves page loading times. - Optimize for Mobile: Ensure that your Divi theme is responsive and optimized for mobile devices. Mobile optimization includes using responsive images, optimizing font sizes, and minimizing unnecessary content for smaller screens. - Monitor Performance: Regularly monitor your website's performance using tools like Google PageSpeed Insights, GTmetrix, or Pingdom. These tools can provide insights into areas that need improvement and help you measure the impact of the changes you make. Remember to create backups of your website before making any significant changes to ensure you can revert to a previous version if necessary. It's also a good practice to test your website's speed after each optimization step to determine the impact of the changes made.

[Mind Pt. 3]
*Renaming Daydreams > Mind*
If you were a white man and you found out your woman (also white), had an enormous attraction to black men, would you leave her or stay because you know you could not do better. For reference: They are always very attractive.
I’m having problems figuring out how I’ll draw up the blueprints for my future home. The design and all of it’s unique components make it hard for me to solidify the idea and make it concrete. There are always edits. I “stress” about structure because I want everything to be 100% the safest option. No unexpected collapsing or any dangerous structures for children or even adults, but lots of fun. Also, what will this type of structure be labeled as, as it does not fit most of the traditional ideas existing today?
I wonder where I’ll put my OTHER ideas that I will not mention until I can find out how I can execute them. I look every day and continue to wonder how I will do that based on what I see.
I want to elaborate on the centered, top floor 4-story room idea. Do I need more stories? Or more space? Does centering it make sense for the space needed. Will I need more space for fucking? I can’t have all of my baby mommas fucking in the same bed? Maybe I’ll make one a theater with a hall of beds, for that reason. Or if there will become enough normality in the situation for us all to sleep there? One big bed instead or an entirely separate idea as well (meaning both)?
I wonder which of them will like TV shows versus Movies. Will there be anyone who likes the same shows or movies? I want to know which one will I watch Scooby Doo with? Saved By The Bell (which I’ve watched a million times already)? Static Shock (Edit: Lilo & Stitch actually; Brain fart)?Most people forget that “Children’s” shows were written by adults and contain better plots and life lessons than “adult” shows, it is just overlooked due to it not contain sexual content other than sexual innuendos or strong language. There are more shows I want to see, I just let them slip my mind.
There’s this regular we have at work. She’s very tall with an extremely pretty smile. She is one of my favorites. I just know she’s a freak. There’s also this asian girl with a really pretty face and smile…and the doctor (or at least she works at a hospital) with big titties and a pretty smile. I thought she had a boyfriend, turns out it’s her coworker.
Do you ever think fucking is one of the best hobbies? I have other favorites, but I’m not sure how I’ll divi up them all to make time for it. I shall see. There are times where I don’t want to stop doing any of them, but fucking is just indescribable and unpredictable. As they all are, but like you get me?
Lastly, I think my new celebrity “crushes” are:
Elizabeth Stanton, she’s a sexy redhead on the CW. She hosts this home videos show about dogs
The blonde from 2 Broke Girls, also stars in “The Neighborhood” on the CW. Can’t remember her name right now, but she’s a really sexy tall girl. Love the way she talks.
And Margot Robbie, from “Focus”, “The Wolf of Wall Street”, “Suicide Squad” and the latest “Barbie” movie… I love her accent as well. It’s almost innocently sexy, which comes as a surprise. Some of the most perfect white women. I consider them “Elite White Women”. Margot is one of my favorite actresses, along with Amanda Bynes, Miranda Cosgrove and Victoria Justice. There are many others, but those are some of my top favorites.
