I've referenced before how I have a big google document to keep track of every media I've ever seen in my entire life (just for reference because I like to track everything possible lol… I am the Data Collector), but recently as I was updating it, I thought of actually evaluating them to find out random percentages (like for example, out of Total Shows Watched, what percentage did I finish vs. stop watching, what percentage did I like or dislike, etc.)...
Evaluating these things is made easier by the fact that I already place everything on each subsection of the list into 6 broad ranking categories, so I don't have to go back and guess to figure out how I feel about them or anything. The categories are: Ranking 5 - overall best* (despite some criticisms of course because I'm too much of an Analyzer to ever find anything Perfect lol) Ranking 4 - more positive than neutral, but not good enough to be 5 Ranking 3 - either the good + bad negate each other, OR it's just not memorable/interesting in any way enough to be ranked higher or lower (this is the Default category ALL things are placed in if no other rank applies) Ranking 2 - maybe a few redeemable elements but largely more negatives than positives Ranking 1 - So bad that it circles around to being fascinating to observe in some way (not necessarily Funny, or Good, but just interesting somehow) Ranking 0 - Bad in a genuinely frustrating or obnoxious manner
*("best" primarily defined here as most interesting, rather than most good in a technical sense, or some other measure. I tend to value more highly whether there's something novel or thoughtful about the worldbuilding, tone, writing, base premise, etc - than about whether it's actually executed perfectly.)
And here's the amount of shows that have so far been placed into each category -
TV shows ~ Rank 5 (highest) - 20 shows ~ Rank 4 (mid-high) - 28 shows ~ Rank 3 (neutral/default/meh) - 114 shows ~ Rank 2 (mid low) -33 shows ~ Rank 1 (low low but intriguingly so) - 14 shows ~ Rank 0 (iredeemably low) - 2 shows
This would make for a total of 211 TV shows overall. However, there are 57 shows within these list marked as "didn't finish" (typically meaning I quit on the very first or second episode - but log them still to keep a record that I at least had a brief view of them).
So my total of genuinely fully watched shows would be more 154. 211 Total, but a More Accurate Total of 154.
Counting them all and using the Total Number Of The List (211) -- that means roughly 9.5% of all total shows I have ever watched (or at least attempted to watch) have been Mostly Good, 13% have been Moderately Okay, 54% have been either entirely Forgettable or some mix of good + bad that lands them right in the Neutral Middle, 15.6% have been Mostly Bad, 6.6% have been Bad (but in an interesting way), and 0.9% have been Terribly Bad.
Additionally, I didn't even get past the first two episodes of about 27% of the total.
Sooo, discounting ones I didn't finish, my total TV shows ever watched in my life would be about 154 (maybe give or take a few, assuming I might have forgotten some from very long ago).
But instead of entire life, let's just say this is the total for 'About 20 Years' (so, not counting very early childhood when I likely wouldn't remember things I saw/have no detailed recollection of them (like for example, I'm sure at some point when I was like 4yrs old I must have seen an episode of Spongebob or something, but I have zero distinct memories of it, can't quote anything of it, and barely recall the premise - so I don't count it on the list, etc.)).
In that case, 154 divided by 20 would be roughly 7.7 shows a year.
Which is actually surprisingly low considering that I often have stuff on in the background for hours whilst I make sculptures and do costumes and stuff (maybe I should have also marked some distinction between 'things I fully paid attention to' and 'things I kind of half listened to whilst sculpting', but that would further split the categories too much probably lol), but I guess a lot of that is youtube videos or random documentaries, so .. eh.. maybe I get it being lower.
Now, doing the same thing for movies-
Movies ~ Rank 5 (highest) - 4 movies (3.4% of total) ~ Rank 4 (mid-high) - 12 movies (10.3% of total) ~ Rank 3 (neutral/default/meh) - 91 movies (78.4% of total) ~ Rank 2 (mid low) - 8 movies (6.8% of total) ~ Rank 1 (low but interesting) - 1 movie (0.8% of total) ~ Rank 0 (irredeemably low) - none in this category (0%)
That makes 116 for a Total (Actually Remembered) Movies Watched In Lifetime (Or At Least In 20 Years).
116 divided by 20 is roughly 5 or 6 movies a year (I feel this has probably been skewed though by adding everything since like elementary school onwards, as I remember a lot more movies from child/teen years.. Whereas, the past 3 years I feel like I've barely seen maybe even 5 movies?? lol). I also have "Didn't Finish" marked on 18 of them. Which means I quit halfway through about 15% of the total movies.
So, a for broader summary stuff..
I seem to be less forgiving to movies than tv shows, by far. Which makes sense to me, I guess, because I love elaboration and details, so "short form" things that only last an hour or two are often lost on me a bit. My biggest complaint with movies is indeed usually walking away just wishing there had been more exposition, more scenes where characters are doing nothing, more "mindless bantering" conversations, more Quiet Downtime and Lore Elaboration and so on lol, so... of course most 1-2hr films end up feeling a bit Not Enough To Draw My Interest/Nothingy to me.
If you count 5 and 4 as "like" and rankings 2 to 0 as "dislike", then for TV shows I at least somewhat liked 48 of them, and at least somewhat disliked 47 of them.. So it's almost exactly the same lol. I'm just about equally as likely to find something bad as I am to find something redeeming about it. But overall, the largest chance is that I just won't really care much for it at all and it will be tossed into the 'neutral' pile, forgotten forever. Movies have a bit better of a balance, "liking" 16 of them, and "disliking" only 9 of them. So I'm slightly more likely to enjoy a movie than to find it annoying - though still VASTLY more likely to just not find it anything in particular, possibly not even finishing it.
ANYWAY.. this is vague and literally pointless, but like I said, I just really find information fun. Like my document where I've rated every apple flavor I've ever tried (like 40 of them now?), or reviewed every oreo flavor (32?), or ranking data from my entire 10 years of Trying To Make Friends process (out of 100 people, roughly 8% chance of a moderate compatibility, 3% chance of high), or etc. etc.. I love to have random pointless things to analyze I suppose lol.
I doubt anyone tracks things in their life in this same exact way, but I'd be interested in hearing any at least somewhat similar data !!! (like, how many TV shows you watch a year on average, and what percentage of those you like vs. dislike (if you keep track of that sort of thing), etc.)). I guess it might be easier with movies, since I think some people use those websites where you curate a list of movies you've seen and you can rate them or something, so maybe the numbers are already available on those places. :0
#maybe this is my version of spotify wrapped lol.. Lifetime Media Google Doc Wrapped.. kind of.. except I'm not going over specific titles.#I can't do this with music since I rarely EVER look for new music or add to my Youtube To MP3 folder library as I just don't really#listen to music that often. When I'm working (the majority of when I seek background noise) I need like.. people's talking voices#for some reason. Just instruments and singing are not distracting enough to me to work as background noise because theyre#almost TOO in the background if that makes sense? like if I put music on then I just tune it out and it's virtually no different#than if I were daydreaming stream of consciousness thoughts in an entirely quiet room lol. And I can't really do it with books since#essentially 100% of what I read is non-fiction. usually about some specific subject or academic topic OR stuff like#1800s magazines or cookbooks or historical people's diaries. Which is not really.. the type of thing I would#rank as easily I guess? like 'ooh yeah putting the sociology textbook in my top 5 hee hee right next to the 1920s radio recipes book' lol.#Then for games... I just sadly dont play enough of them. I've been banned from new games as I've told myself I cant play anyting#long form (no rpgs or etc) until I actually finish MY OWN game first - to keep me from wasting time. so on average#I play... 0 new games a year. ToT... I do play the sims sometimes but that's really all (which is not a new game at all since#I've been playing it on and off for years). Thus I guess movies/TV are really the only things that make sense#to collect this sort of information on. I could do youtube videos I guess also but that seems kind of strange like...#giving a rating to every single video I watch in a ranked list lol.. Especially since I would say a good 85% of the time#they are exclusively background noise whilst I'm working on something or cleaning the house or etc. and not things I pay serious attention#to. There are only a few specific topics/types/creators of videos I watch where I'm ACTUALLY sitting in front of a screen paying#direct attention to the content (usually when it's educational or political things). Everything else is too mindless to even rank.#ANYWAY... ever analyzing my little hermit Weird Relationship To Media (in the sense of seemingly not processing or getting the same#things out of it as many other seem to). I think that can contribute sometimes to the whole difficulty socializing and stuff#since our culture is very centered around media consumption generally speaking. People want to talk about The New Movie that came#out or The Big TV Show Of The Year. and for me it's like.. highly likely I just plain have NOT seen it. Or if i have. statistically#I most likely was entirely ambivalent if not slightly negative towards it lol. Which just kind of takes the steam out of a 'fun' 'casual'#conversation and you seem like a bit of a bummer if most of your only feedback is either 'idk what that is' or 'oh yea... i did#see that one.... i didnt like it all that much though... I think it'd be better with elves in it.. and 7 hours longer..'' lol..#Which I am not disliking things in a 'grr i hate it bc its popular'/just to be contrarian way. I actually dislike that mindset/find it#silly (by striving so hard to be counterculture you are thus still defining yourself by the whims of external culture - just in the#opposite direction. but are still just as preoccupied with the mainstream (going against it) as everyone else. etc. lol..)) In my#case I think it IS just having niche hyperspecific tastes.. for example- it peeves me when cell phones are in media bc I dont want to be#reminded at ALL of the real world. so.. cross off anything set in modern times. so on & etc. Judging all things by these weird criteria lol

(please dont tag this with "rb bait" or "reblog bait")
happy new year everyone, im sorry to make such a post in the new year but i am entering the new year with debt 😂😂😂😂😂 i know we are all financially struggling right now and i genuinely hate to do this but i really don't want my gas and electric cut off :/ i didn't get my usual pay last week either due to the Christmas holidays so its been really rough lately.
the inital amount was £349.93 because i have been unable to pay my bills in full for a few months so it just keeps piling up (see below) but i managed to pay £60 last week, so it is now down to £289.93. i will continue to pay off this debt when my next paycheck comes in but in the meantime could i get some support as well? i need this paid off by the 10th of jan....

hi guys this is very random for me to post , but
i may or may not own possible lost media.
to explain , i was looking at the youtube account of redbluerecords (the record company that first worked with my favorite band , aka the venetia fair.) and i clicked on their video "the venetia fair presents: hotel mania!". the video itself isnt that important , but the audio is. in some clips of the video , there's a song. i liked the song , so i tried looking up the lyrics. there are quite literally 0 matching results when i try to look them up.
the song sounds like it's punk or rock , and the singer is female.
also , i thought there could be a possible chance that it was just another venetia fair song or something like that. but this is impossible because a. the band has never had a female singer , or even a female band member , b. there's no way it's an unreleased demo because it didnt sound like something they made and also because of reason a , and c. they have no songs from when they were still with redbluerecords that even had those lyrics (keep in mind , the venetia fair was only working with redbluerecords for their first album , the circus.).
you can find the audio in a google drive i made containing the audios here. the first and third clip are just instrumentals , and the second clip contains lyrics. i apologize for the noises in the background (and also forgetting to properly trim the first clip), those were in the video. i would be happy even if someone can only identify the singer. also , i don't mind if you post this on other platforms / upload the mp3s to spread them around.
edit : if you want the video i found the song in , then please send an ask in my askbox.

(Repost because i couldnt find it on my acc tags)
(WINDOWS OS ONLY [though i doubt its much different on other os')
Tired of these "Youtube to mp3" sites looking sketchy?
Or maybe the download limits and speed on these sites?
Well, if you have a computer, you can also just use the actual thing that every one of these sites actually use-
and even if you dont know much about the terminal or command prompt you can download videos easily without limitation (except your download speed)
First, a tutorial for how to actually download the thing, since the github site may be difficult to navigate thru:
Click on the releases (the version name may not have the same name)
Tumblr media
then download this
Tumblr media
once that's downloaded, move it to a more easily accessible directory, for example, i have it stored under the simple directory of "C:\Music"
Tumblr media
(simply clicking on the .exe will not do anything, you have to tell the .exe what to do directly)
Now onto the harder part (not really):
Go in directory of where you have the .exe, right-click (not on the .exe but in the empty space), and select "Open in terminal"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
now all you have to do is copy this: yt-dlp.exe -x --audio-format mp3 --audio-quality 0
and paste the link to the video or playlist that you want to download into a .mp3 and let the program do the rest
and you're done!!! ;3
wasn't that hard was it?

HI.. so um renpy things I had to learn and got angry over because I'm stupid and renpy is kind of poorly documented and outdated
MUSIC:
when adding your files into audio, DON'T add .mp3 at the end of the title of the songs themselves, some renpy vids are outdated and tell you to do this but do NOT because it'll be like me staring at my computer screen like why isnt it reading my song because to do music you want to type
ex: my song name is birthday
play music "audio/birthday.mp3"
IF YOU NAME THE FILE .MP3 IT'LL READ IT AS MP3 TWICE AND MAKE YOU INCREDIBLY ANGRY AND WONT PLAY❤
with music you'll want to just use this or stop music after each scene you want a track switch, Do NOT LET YOUTUBERS LIE TO YOU AND TELL YOU A 50 STEP PLAN. I watched like 40 fucking videos of them telling me to do all this unnecessary shit and it's like it's okay just
Tumblr media
I forgot if the numbers should be in brackets next to fadeout or fade in but literally just type stop music to stop it some tutorials will be like You have to open the sound channel. this is not true 😭
IMAGES
I reccomend this image resizer I know you're probably not using pixilart for sprites like I am so I have to resize EVERY single sprite but this is extremely useful for bulk image resizing especially if they're all sprites of one character you have to fit to 1080 x 960 screen dimensions
Tumblr media
for changing rooms or scenes quickly just type scene (image name for background) , and use 'with fade' for it to be smooth and cute kind of like the tboma demo
in preferences you can turn text speed down by choice to make type writer text, you DON'T have to code that yourself I had to learn this the hard way 😧
to change the font of your game just add a folder to game and download a font and plop it in there, once again DON'T name the file ___.ttf 😭 only type ttf (if it's a true text font) in the gui (or options I dont remember) where it asks for the font or else the same thing with the music will happen it'll read like .ttf.ttf and not run💀
you can make extra folders inside images and audio but I highly reccomend you dont despite what.. youtubers say.. because it'll mean you have to type "play music "audio/songs/birthday.mp3" and it can leave way more room for getting confused ☹ like a freak all my images (other than gui) are in the same images folder so i just have to scroll for their names
with images I dont reccomended naming them with the bg tag, mine are just like fnaf1 kitchen , jeffs main room, fazfright hallway etc. and named by area because bg for EVERY single background can get annoying
you can shake the screen for a moment with "vpunch" (vertical) or "hpunch" (horizontal) as many times as you want and wherever, useful for violent scenes or shock or rumble whatever
animating is very difficult in renpy but an easy way to mock it is showing an image, typing 'with Pause(4)' (or any number) and then doing that for every frame and adding no fade, it's a little messy and mock but I'm using it and it still looks pretty fucking cool for an ominous sequence especially if you start with a fade in, I use this one for william suiting up and you get to see him put on each part of the costume and I use it for characters staring at eachother angrily as well as all the time in the itp dlc because the creature isnt speaking, this loose frame by frame animation helps a lot for cutscenes where a subject is just moving slightly and you dont have to do it in dialogue like "..."
YOU CAN TRY TO USE RENPYS REALLY AWFUL "VIDEO" SUPPORT FOR CUTSCENES BUT ITS REALLY FUCKING BAD 0/10
Tumblr media
GAME:
choices are super super easy
Tumblr media
just pull this up for a choice menu
this is one of the only well documented renpy things but just reading it simply like this is rlly helpful rather than a whole confusing renpy article
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and you can do this
Tumblr media
which I'm still trying to understand but let me know if you can figure it out and explain it easier because I'm stupid 😸😸😸😸 but videos are really bad at showing this sometimes
also when adding sprites (at left) (at right) or (at center) you don't HAVE to retype the at position every time you change their expression but I typically do just in case
WAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THANK YOU !!!! adding these to my document stat ! 🫡

spent a good chunk of time looking through the illustrated pvs (the ones that have genshin's flat illustration style, idk if they have a unified name) and it turns out that the perilous trail cutscene, where xiao tries to sacrifice himself to save the group, its theme (hanging by a thread) was already hinted at in the very first yaksha intro we got (tale of the yaksha), back in xiao's story quest
youtube
youtube
(youtube links bc I guess tumblr doesn't show timestamps on mp3s anymore ..)
I can't pick out other specific times where the two match up, although there are definitely several more; but if you play 0:29 in tale of the yaksha and 0:39 in hanging by a thread, they follow almost the exact same melody for about 30 seconds. they overlap again at 0:57-0:58 in tale of the yaksha and 2:22 in hanging by a thread for another 30 sec until the end of the tale of the yaksha
literally so insane. an entire patch later, after 1 year, the yaksha music that only appears in a story quest pv gets called back for a quest centered on them and xiao. the writers are op for this

hey can I download yt videos as .mp3 with yt-dlp?
Technically yes, but MP3s are really outdated and won't sound as good and will generate much larger files than a more modern format. I recommend using the best command which will get you the best audio quality available, which on YouTube usually means .opus. that's a very modern file format but because it's open source it's supported by just about everything I've ever tried including all modern web browsers, VLC, foobar2000, WinAmp (even the antique versions have a plug-in for it), audacity, Android, mpv, etc
Unless you're like my girlfriend and insist on using a copy of Windows Media player from 2005 you should be good with the better audio quality.
For this I use the command: yt-dlp -x --audio-format best --audio-quality 0 --sponsorblock-remove all <url>
If you were going to use MP3 you would just change it from 'best' to 'mp3'
The -x means eXtract audio
You will need the customized versions of ffmpeg and ffprobe linked on the yt-dlp page installed for this to work, you can just dump them in the same folder as yt-dlp and it will find them.
Let me know if you have any other questions or if I made a typo in this
I also have a bunch of commands related to adding metadata to the download in the command I use, but I find those are pretty unreliable and you're better off just rewriting everything with musicbrain picard anyway

how do u store mp3 files on ur phone? :o i wanna have music offline but idk how to find them later without having to shuffle thru a bunch of files to look for a specific one TT
also how do u download them ? :oc
(I'm assuming you have some familiarity with how to do stuff like unzip files on pc, navigating folders, etc)
okay first off for getting music, I don't want to get my account nuked or whatever, so I won't talk about legally dubious ways but there are ways to get music. but also there's a fair bit of legally-free-to-download albums on websites like bandcamp. the stuff that's free will tend to be more indie but I've found plenty I enjoy. incidentally some of the ultrakill soundtrack albums are free, such as chaos/order, which you can use to try this out: https://heavenpierceher.bandcamp.com/album/ultrakill-chaos-order
(when it says pay what you want just put in $0 and you should be able to download with at most providing your email maybe, I forget. though I do recommend paying independent artists if you can!) once you download those and unzip the zip file, you have a bunch of mp3 files that you can put wherever you want
for putting them on your phone, the process varies if you're on android or ios (iphone). on android you need a music player app. I'm not on android so I can't recommend specific ones, though the default music app that should (hopefully?) be installed on your phone (it may be youtube music at this point I think?) can apparently play mp3 files stored on your device. but in any case, you should have a music folder on your phone, and you should be able to paste files into that once you plug your phone into a computer that has music files on it. your phone may even allow you to download files directly from the bandcamp website if you have an app that can unpack .zip files. but I like also having music on my computer so I can listen to it with a desktop music player (on windows foobar2000 and musicbee are popular ones). in any case, once you have a music player it should be able to automatically categorize music files on your phone so long as they're in the right folder and as long as the mp3 files are properly formatted by the artist with the right metadata (which on bandcamp they basically always are)
on ios, you download itunes to your computer, add the files to your itunes library through that, and then sync your iphone by plugging it into the computer. I don't think itunes works with android devices though
anyway, hopefully this helps a bit, you're best off searching online for a step by step guide if you need more assistance bc I don't know where you may need more detail. here's some wikihow articles that may be helpful (full disclosure I've only briefly skimmed these): https://www.wikihow.com/Add-Music-to-Your-Android-Device , https://www.wikihow.com/Move-Music-from-Computer-to-iPhone

I have no children yet, but here’s what I’m thinking about kids and media:
0-5ish: No media, unless it’s together or a trusted adult is helping them pick and keeping an eye on duration. Maybe they have a little mp3 player for their favorite songs (music should be a human right)
Justification: I’ve watched so many toddlers fall down unboxing video rabbit holes on YouTube and it freaks me OUT. I want media to be part of our shared family culture, not a way to check out and go numb. I’m aware that this is a lot more work, and plan to put that work in.
5ish-8ish: There is now an iPad, with some age-appropriate streaming services for movies and shows and some (offline, obv) games Maybe some pre-downloaded favourites and home movies, too. No YouTube at all. The iPad does not have a passcode or time lock, so it isn’t a scarce resource, but we keep an eye on usage and encourage alternatives if they start zombie-ing.
Justification: At 5, kiddo should be able to practice regulating their own attention span and explore media choices more autonomously—within certain parameters. The kid-eating YouTube algorithm is still hard-banned, and there are no messaging/social media/online gaming options. This is about them exploring media independently from us, but not using technology as a conduit to other people just yet.
8-12ish: kiddo gets a phone for direct messaging/calling with friends and family ONLY. The older and dumber the phone the better. Some closed-circle social medias (like Marco Polo) ok. This phone will be checked by parents periodically (sorry) but always with advanced notice and a conversation about what we might be looking for and why.
Justification: This is a good age for texts from grandma/cousins and the ability for them to explore the world and be able to text/call back for help. Obviously, they’ll want to send goofy messages to their friends, too, and that’s great. However, I don’t want them to develop an “audience” yet, so social media is out, and I still want to keep an eye out on how people interact with them, working together to recognise and set boundaries around this kind of communication. Checking their phone is mainly to enforce which apps they use, since they’ll be encountering more social pressure to join social media (and defy rules) around that age. I won’t read my kid’s messages unless I have a concern about their or one of their contacts’ behavior, and if it comes to that, looking at their messages is something I’ll do WITH THEM. We’ll have a conversation about my concerns, what I’m looking for, and what to do about it together.
10-12ish: Some multiplayer games okay, but with oversight around who they interact with and guidance about how to navigate uncomfortable interactions. YouTube is finally available, but with conversation about the ideas they encounter there. I won’t like this, but I can’t keep them off Minecraft forever.
13 ish-17ish: Parental controls off their tech, and a baseline of phone autonomy: no check-ins unless something seems seriously wrong; all check-ins with conversation. Encourage kiddo to manage screentime within other responsibilities and goals, check in if screens become a numbing reflex. Only big rule: MAINTAIN ANONYMITY (no real name, selfies/ vlogging, or identifying details) in any open-form social media. Advise them to be aware of social media that gives them a sense of an “audience” and council them to set boundaries with how they interact with that idea (ie: you don’t owe strangers interactions or energy, you are allowed to make mistakes, you are allowed to change your mind, grow, and change. You do not need to have an opinion on everything, especially if you haven’t had time to think it over, and you can/should block anyone who makes you feel unsafe). Here, I’ll also inform them about para-social relationships and how to navigate those.
Justification: god, I wish the adults in my life at that age told me the same. I cannot tell you how I wince when my full name still pulls up deviant art posts from my teen years on google searches. I have become so much kinder to myself since I let go the idea that I owe a vague internet audience my take on every new thing. Even if the internet wasn’t full of people who could exploit your personal information to harm you (for whatever reason), it does you no service whatsoever to put your most vulnerable developmental years under a public spotlight.
18: Full technology autonomy. Hopefully I’ve prepared kiddo to navigate it well, and left the door open to come to me if they ever need more help/guidance. Good luck, kiddo.
Posting for peer review: what do y’all think?
