Photobucket has decided, out of the blue, to hold all their users' photos for ransom. They're now demanding $400 a year for third-party hosting rights, i.e., the ability to post a link to a photo on their site and have the picture itself show up, not just a link. This for literally billions of photos. With no warning whatsoever. What is it with companies just shitting on users' heads like this out of nowhere?

So now I have to go through my accounts and make sure I have copies of everything so I can host the pics elsewhere. Christ, what a pain in the ass. I wonder if this is going to be business as usual from now on - offer a free service, get everyone hooked on it for years, then hit them with exorbitant fees without warning, in hopes they'll bite. Nice.

PLEASE GO HERE AND TELL LIVEJOURNAL TO FUCK OFF WITH THE LIKE BUTTONS

You heard me. THEY'RE ADDING LIKE BUTTONS TO LJ.

The next step in turning LJ into a Facebook clone.

They don't want us here. We're too inconvenient. They want a pack of monkeys who'll just push buttons and then pony up money for the privilege.

TELL THEM HELL NO.

Oh gods, oh gods, shit shit shit SHITSHITSHIT

I went to pick Frodo up to give him a nice cuddle because he was a good boy and ate all his liver and chicken, and in doing so I YANKED my lower back and now I'm all OWOWOWOWWWW FUUUUUUUCK. GODS THIS HURTS. Luckily, my mom next door has pain meds and she gave me one. So now I'm gonna eat a little something (because I DO NOT NEED another twelve hours of nausea and vomiting, thanks) and then am heading back to bed.

GODDAMIT. I was going OUT today! Had planned to go to Kinokuniya downtown and pick up the awesome cookbook they ordered for me from Japan. Also was going to drop by Liberate Emporium to share some of my tarot card collection with a lovely lady there who'd expressed interest in seeing my decks, as she is also a collector. DAMNIT. FUCK. DAMNIT.

OW OW OW.

*haz a sad*

*also a mad*

I'm so fucking tired of being crapped up and messed up, and unable to do the things I want to do.

Okay, back to bed. Have a great day, everybody. Cross your fingers the pill will work and I won't be lying in bed unable to move for the next two days.

I've just had the depressing realization that without Jon and Stephen, my interest in politics has plummeted to nearly zero.

Which actually makes sense, given that I was pretty apolitical when Jon took over TDS. It was really his tenure on the show that got me interested in politics again, which I'd lost since I left Santa Cruz, and even living there in the early 90's, it was local rather than national that interested me. Having Jon, and then Stephen, as guides made it all worth paying attention to, but now that they're gone, it's all just a bunch of fucking white guys yelling at each other again. When they're not yelling at each other, they're bullying the rest of us, and I just can't be bothered.

*sigh*

We're having a nasty-ass heat wave here. I actually had to cancel two physical therapy appointments this week, because I'm on the bus and I knew if I tried to go, I'd end up with heatstroke and pass out on the bus. I really HATE this kind of stiflingly hot weather. It sucks away any ability I have to do anything - all I can do is sit in front of my electric fan. ARGH.

Goddamnit.

I can't access my Friends page. Not the main one, or any custom group. I just get redirected to a "feed" page. Is anyone else having this problem?

RIP, Roger Ebert

Now he and Gene can pick up where they left off.

I have a question about Firefox. I'd like to know how to get back a session I was just working on.

Here's the problem. I had a program installed that wasn't working for me. So I went through the uninstall process. That went fine, but without my know it would happen, the program CLOSED Firefox after it uninstalled. Then it automatically re-opened Firefox to its home page. I had NO IDEA it would do this. So now the session I had going is GONE, with all the tabs and windows I was using. All the stuff I was reading, working on - GONE.

Is there some way of getting all that back? This is one of the biggest problems with Tabs Plus - that it only gives you the option of re-opening the "last" two sessions you were on. But it DOESN'T count your last session if you had re-opened it. So the two options I have are that one tab that was opened by the departing program, or the session from DECEMBER 24. That's because since then, I've just been re-opening FF to its last memory, so NONE of those sessions - from Dec. 24 until today, have been counted as actual sessions.

This is an ENORMOUS bug in Tabs Plus, and it PISSES ME OFF. This is NOT the first time this has happened - Adobe Flash updates do the same thing, but I've learned to save my session before doing an update with them, because I've lost lots of info before. This time, I didn't know it would happen, so I've lost all the stuff I was working on.

Anybody have any ideas how to get around this FUCKING BULLSHIT with Tabs Plus?
