my journal: various subjects, opinionating, CW at times
The title explains itself.
If you're interested in the ramblings of a middle-aged man with chronic conditions who, at times, sees things a little too clearly for his own good, then read on.
Sometimes I get political, but it won't be all the time.
I don't mind comments in general but if you're going to differ with what I write, that's fine--as long as you can explain your position clearly & reasonably. Rants, shouting & general incoherence will be ignored or flagged, depending on the situation. Try to remember that not everyone else in this world holds your beliefs.
Every so often I may post art or snapshots of projects I'm working on.
If you're still interested after reading all the above, great. (I do wonder at how much time you have on your hands, though)
Still flaring today, though not like the last two days... However I have the runs too. That's been going on for at least a couple days now. Between the two conditions, I'm not in much of a mood to do anything.
What we need is some cheesecake:
I followed your lead, @mytwistedsoul... The link definitely works & I didn't even need to open my Dropbox acct. (Have had one for a while now) The only problem is that while it works, it's like two other conversion/download sites I found: the MP4 clips are never 720p...they're always 360p or similar size. That's fine for watching vids on a phone but for even a laptop-sized monitor screen, it's not big or detailed enough. I still appreciate the thought... Might be stuck with the previous movies/clips for the foreseeable future, unless I find online cloud storage platforms with whatever was uploaded by users previously. That is an option, depending on what kind of videos you're looking for.
@slowdecline48 Oh. Well that sucks. I'll keep an eye out and let you know if I find something else
Thanks, Twisty. I found other full-size vids almost a month ago (some of 'em were, anyway)... Getting them didn't involve YouRube at all. They've got just two problems: 1) downloading them can take a while unless you're willing to pay extra for higher speeds (I never do), & 2) the subject matter is quite limited, stuff I rarely ever watch unless I'm really bored & have a sufficient amount of disposable energy. These conditions rarely occur in my life.
@slowdecline48 Lol I hear you there. I don't watch much stuff either. I might over winter. I used to watch more but it's all sort of stupid shows
I just remembered: there's also Vimeo. Not sure how easy it is to download stuff from it...probably easier if you have an account there. There's Dailymotion too, but I've never tried that platform.
@slowdecline48 I always forget about Vimeo! I haven't heard of Dailymotion though. I'll have to check that one out
Ride On - AC/DC
Aches & pains + weird weather not corresponding to the forecast today. So I'm lying down. Hate this s***...it is a luxury I cannot afford to spend time on.
In lieu of doing anything useful, here's my thought on current events:
