Alternative for YouTube for those who are stuck with Chrome

I'm saddled with this ok chromebook, so I can't download any browser with an ad blocker, so if you want to bypass ads, I suggest piped.video! Watched a whole Summoning Salt video and no ads popped up! Seems good

Rant of the day #1

I often think about nostalgia that I have for nothing I've experienced. I think about the internet before my time, the toys before my time, the products before my time, many things before my time. Right now, it's safe to say it's not a good time for planet earth. I see how people miss what they once have, and I guess I feel for that. I didn't really live the western lifestyle as a young kid (but I do now!).

I wonder if I just don't have it good. That I'm living a secondary, hand-me-down life where everything I have isn't what it used to be. That this was the wrong [time] to be born in. I sometimes feel ashamed for liking newer things, since it isn't as good as what it could be. That maybe I'm some kind of loser chump who gobbles up the slop as usual. I think about the most recent Transformer I collected. Is that still up to par compared to my 2011 Bumblebee? Actually, yeah.

I think when I take a step from my computer, it doesn't really matter. To me, at least. I know that to people who have some pretty bad home lives, the internet is important. But to me, I have a pretty good life. I live in a middle class relatively healthy family, I have plenty of things in my home, I go to a good school, I have good grades, I'm ahead of many people. I'm always comparing myself to others with better situations, but me? I'm doing pretty well. Yeah, I'd like some things to improve, but there's still good internet content. There's still good food. Transformers is still far from a trashfire. And I'm extending my tastes! I just hope the world improves, and that KOSA doesn't pass here in the States (this post was made in August 9th, 2023).

I don't think I'd like any other previous time. I'm sensitive, not white, have issues many people wouldn't understand and mock. I gotta work on myself, and now is a good time to do that, the best time I would argue. I know that this won't be the same for everyone, and I understand. But this is a personal post for me (I got a little heated earlier), and needed to think about this. Now that my account is created, I may not be in the best headspace going forward, but it will be more of a personal diary to me. See you all, and think about what you type and how it comes off to other people :waving_emoji:
