GOOD IDEA:

Making a YouTube video with relaxing music.

BAD IDEA:

Commenting directly on a video with relaxing music saying that it helped you take your mind off of the coronavirus. That is still enough to remind me of the coronavirus, and will therefore cancel out any benefit I may have gained from the relaxing music.


EDIT: I hope I didn't sound like I meant that I didn't enjoy the video linked above. I did enjoy it. What I didn't enjoy was a couple of the comments. I'm just so on edge right now that even a mention of a certain topic, even in the context of "this made me feel better about it", can be enough to make me feel worse about it.
matt1993: (broken link)
Yesterday I saw that images and videos were randomly broken on some of my LJ entries, again. :(

I put in a support request about it and was instructed to link to some examples of entries with broken images/videos, so I decided to compile a bunch of images/videos (some that were in my earlier entries, some not) into one entry so I'd only have to link to one.

cut for length )

...All the images and videos in my journal are showing up today, apparently. Oh well, at least I have an entry like this in case there's a similar glitch in the future. :)

You know that entry I posted recently where I was testing YouTube embeds since it didn't seem to be working on LJ for a while? It appeared to be fixed for a while, then it became broken again. In fact, now videos embedded in old entries don't work anymore. :(

Text links to the Michelle Heafy videos I decided to share with you in that entry, just in case they aren't showing up in the original entry at the moment and you want to see them:

Bowser's Road (Super Mario 64)
Super Mario World Castle Theme
Dire, Dire Docks (Super Mario 64)
Space Junk Galaxy (Super Mario Galaxy)
Pokémon Medley - Main Theme, Battle Theme, Lavender Town

So when I was writing my previous entries, I noticed that there seemed to be a glitch where new embedded YouTube videos on LJ wouldn't show up for some reason (even though at least one still shows up in an old entry). I was forced to just put text links to them all instead.

I decided to post an entry with videos I haven't embedded on LJ/DW before in it to see if it works now/works any better when I'm crossposting from DW to LJ.

And what better way to do that than show you guys an underrated YouTube channel I discovered a few years ago and somehow haven't mentioned here until now (except for how I think "michelleheafy" is in my ridiculously long interest list in my profile)?







Her voice is so soothing... as one commenter put it, "This is what it would sound like if Enya composed Mario soundtracks." (Yes, someone BESIDES ME said "Enya" and "Mario" in the same sentence, and it's not even a reply to anything I said/wrote. I'm as surprised as you are!)

Those of you who recommended I stay away from YouTube because it seems like a bad place for me... this is one of the reasons why YouTube is mostly a good place for me. :)

It's hard to describe this journal in just a few paragraphs... but I'll try

Just an autistic guy born in 1993 (hence the username) who's had this journal since I was 14. Has trouble phrasing things well especially in earlier entries, so keep that in mind.

My interests have fluctuated in the 17 years since I've had this journal, but the following has remained constant:
- I like Mario games (mainly the platformers, Mario Kart, Mario Party) and Super Smash Bros.
- I like Garfield
- I like Homestar Runner
- I like Enya
- And I've always loved the idea of wacky crossovers between ANY of my interests, whether it's in the form of a short-lived webcomic in 2006-2008, a short-lived backwards lyrics site in 2008, writing down weird dreams in 2009-2011, playing Tomodachi Life a lot in 2014-2016, or what most of my posts are about these days: playing around with Character.AI starting in 2023. I still can't believe I'm actually in a world where an AI of Enya can talk to AIs of Mario or Garfield or even my favorite obscure characters like Mary O. from Super Mario Maker. :O
