For Your Tool-Box: How to get YouTube Captions to make a Transcript.

My friend Capriuni passed along to me this awesome YouTube video of “Your Brains” (original song by Jonathon Coulton). In and of itself, that’s not really note worthy – Capriuni is my source for many cool things in YouTube’s Deaf communities. The video itself is subtitled for the ASL-impaired.

That’s where things got interesting, because my friend particle_person passed along to me how to get the captions off a YouTube video so one can make a transcript without duplicating work!

Easy steps following the link!

gudbuytjane shared this amazing video about this 7 year old girl who speaks amazingly about being trans.

Forward.

[...] Still, compared to the world in which I was a 7 year old (which was indeed quite brutal), to know I live in a world where this 7 year old can be this in touch with who they are feels like progress, and something to be glad about.

my head hurts and I have to study. I was going to link something to you guys but I can't even remember what it was.

But thanks you for the recs you all gave me! Damn, that was so good, procrastination never felt so good. XP

Edit: Okay, I lied, not Spam. delux_vivens posting it made me remember that I saw this like a week ago when I had no time.

Sarah Harris made a documentary called "Prostitutes of God" about Indian sex workers. She said a lot of shit. So the people she featured responded to her in a awesome video:

Since people from certain Developed Countries (I can be passive-aggressive also, hur hur) love the "we are in a POST RACIAL SOCIETY" shit and stuff, via Sociological Images (and watch out for ableist language of the reporters):







Dude, why do I know someone will bring the argument of "it doesn't prove anything, they just showed the kids who grew up with Nazi parents/whose parents were self-haters, the rest of us are still post-racial!!" or something? And you know what? As if (it's not like I don't see you everyday loving "the pretty white people!!").
