re: fucked up lifestream

* yesterday, after forgetful weeks and blurry days and while upgrading wordpress again, i stumbled into the secret lifestream folder i left running alone since a couple of months. much to my disappointment, said lifestream recorded just crumbles, and all that was left of my webtrail amounted to a couple of linked flickr pictures, one stray deli.icio.us link and my two most recent twitter post. obviously, i counted up to three and blasted the whole thing into some cosmic void of sort.

* not that i really needed a lifestream, or webtrail, or recording angel. but i felt sure that my idea would have changed in the future. so that’s basically why the thing was running.

* what should i do now? no way to go looking into that. setting it up was a pain in the arse to begin with and i’m no coder at all, just some coarse body struggling his way into code understanding each time it’s needed. half an hour ago i signed in for a Tumblr account and dumped most of my feeds output into it (and posted something else too, in order to try the bookmarklet). it apparently works. i’ll give it some more days and then i’ll return on the issue.

* while we are at it: i should rewrite the about page for this place. things have consistently changed and maybe they won’t change again in the next two days and maybe i should help clarifying all silent doubts. i should have seen a doctor today but i couldn’t and so far i don’t really know how the day is going to untangle.

* my flickr pro account expired today. i went and merged some days ago so at least two hundred pictures should stay in place. obviously, after the merge, my soul felt no darker, my life no further invaded and crushed by the evil heel of infernal forces. but it just struck: do any of you imaginary guys and girls have an online banking account? the bastards keep a lot of private data about you, address, real name, phone number! they could even freeze your earthly possessions when they decide that the time is right!
honestly, i think you should opt out. really.

* i don’t have one (online banking account). it’s not that common an occurrence on the favelas side of society. just to say.
