to all the moms, and dads who think they are no less than a mom!

You have been a great mom. You did your duty despite all odds. If not the universe, I am proud of you. I returned because I thought I'd talk to you again for a little while more...

Ty! Not sure exactly who is this but will wait for follow up posts on universe Smile

I got dark chocolates, lush bath bombs and a pic collage. Right now coloring my hair (is a 5 hour process these days) and deleting albums on Flickr coz they moving and I don’t care for that account anymore. But then before I delete I need to download pics that I didn’t have on my pc.

All those years passing by as I delete each album at a time starting from 2002. I was a different person then. Makes me wonder if my spirit animal is cat, coz I sure seem to be living my 5th life or something, lol.

What color? How much is it costing you? Do you know kids going to bed hungry in sub-sahara? Have you no shame?

What?? I haven't checked my Flickr account in a year cos I moved to Google Drive. Where are they moving to? Which Galaxy? Let me check if they are closing. Did you not get free icloud with your iphone?

No. It's your infinite life. You will either wake up after you die, or, you will never stop waking up. In some life or the other, you might decide to end this nonsense.

Haha first I thought it’s a woman handle but the content wasn’t adding up, and when it clicked knew it was you.

“What color? How much is it costing you?”

Henna and indigo. I’m allergic to chemical colors now (maybe always was but it got more prominent now). Approximately $20 per treatment. More than a box color, less than a salon. I’m still experimenting what works for me and which are the best products but after a couple of horrific days of walking around with an orange head, and sometimes it becomes too black (never my natural color), I think I got it now.

Flickr is being taken over by smugmug or something. I had its pro account. I simply kept renewing it every two years coz I was just too lazy to browse over many many pics there and copy them down. However ever since I began cataloging my pics on fb I had somewhat stopped using Flickr for new pics even though Flickr retained the quality and fb downsizes it a bit. But when this move was announced I decided to dedicate a Sunday and just move the pics and delete the account.

But while I was doing that I discovered my pc was missing pics for an entire year and more. The main folder where I download all my pics just didn’t have it. I frantically searched around and found 6 months of it.

I have iCloud but I never upgraded it. So whenever it gets full I download it to another online backup and clear it up. I wasn’t consistent over the years about where to backup and that’s why the confusion. Ugh.

So now a new task at hand. Somehow get all the pictures together at one place and delete the irrelevant ones (about 50% that is). Unfortunately I may have lost all the videos of that time period forever.

This will take me like 10-20 hours and give me many headaches. Ugh

I got upto 2013 last night in terms of recovering lost pics. Some of the pics felt like it happened yesterday and I had to marvel how it was FIVE years ago. I could swear some of those things happened within last year.

Oh it’s $20 if I do each separately. If I mix them up (called hendigo) then I need only half of each. The one step method worked for me beautifully a couple of times but wasn’t error proof. The 2 step one makes my hair too black but the last indigo I ordered didn’t seem too pure so my hair is not that black rn (yet to be seen after next shampoo).

$20 is reasonable. The sub saharan kids can wait.

Why does the sub saharan hungry mouth exist? He is so ugly. So much ugliness does not belong in this universe. This universe is beautiful. Only beauty can exist in it, not un-beauty. Only matter can exist, not antimatter. All ugly things are barred by us from participating in this participatory universe. We choose not to see antimatter. What to do? God made us this way -- logical. Ho gya mini sermon on the universe. Now you know I am not a woman?

We really take too many photos and videos these days. And then we store them. I think we return to only 10% of them in our lives. I've noticed I stored less pics overall in 2017 and even lesser this year. Then again, who am I storing them for? My kids maintain their own photo drives and have never expressed any interest in seeing my collection (and vice versa). We are wasting resources and complicating life. Complicating because memories suck.

Apple has no future. I don't how they are still making so much money. I made a mistake switching to them for a couple of years.

Happy belated mothers day to Tracy & all the moms on SuCH!

In our house there is only one mom (my wife) who takes care of everything, and yesterday (on mothers day) I thanked her quite deservedly on behalf of myself and the kids (Hitaish & Hema).

I was kidding about the universe. I hope you did not take it seriously? I'm not obsessed with the universe anymore, lol.

lol yeah figured that...

regarding pics, agree with you. i had kept a folder on the back up so that ALL pics could go there, but only i dump stuff into it. the only loss of not having flickr is that now I don't have anything handy online for accessing older pics that are not on FB, but I guess that's ok.

I now have to consolidate all pics and videos 2014 onwards, and then go back through 15 years of them to delete the stupid ones. Pretty fun outlook for all evenings this week and next lol. One big project for me was to convert all album pics into digital but will see about that later...

You know, I just heard from an e-friend who has been MIA for a month. He had a very traumatic benzo withdrawal in 2012. Ever since, he has been helping others through his website. He has been fine all this time. Last month, on the suggestion of some guy on the net, he tried "brainwave entrainment." What it means is that you hear recorded sounds at a particular frequency, and this in turn sets the frequency of your brain waves because your brain mimics it in a positive feedback loop. It is unverified science. Sounds harmless, right? He is back in withdrawal now. He can't believe it and I can't believe it. He has been sick (as in really sick -- constant fear) for more than a month. Looks like all that meditation to Om, Sudarshan Kriya and other things in Patanjali yoga, are after all right. You can change the frequencies of your brain waves to repetitive sounds and thus change your moods and mind. How did these ancient cultures come to conclusions that logical science took several thousand years to arrive at? Or is yet to arrive at? I don't disbelieve anything now. Balls to rationalism. Science is all great but it tells you nothing about the true nature of reality. If I was expecting it would, I was the one who was a fool.
