Youtube is down. Now what do I do?

tnhillbillygal thought this was worth mentioning said Tue, Oct 16th 2018 at 9:39pm ET

This is interrupting my nightly ritual of staying up too late watching old videos of creators I forget about and then rediscover. Am I just supposed to go to bed at a decent hour like a normal person? Anybody else feeling the sting of no youtube available?

Before books became moving picture shows back in the day, we had radio.

- @ruouttaurmind Except I was watching You-tube while cleaning out closets. Hard to read a book while you are doing that. There’s radio, of course, but it doesn’t engage my mind and keep me entertained while I work. Talk radio probably would, but it’s not something I normally listen to and I’d have to quit working to find a station. I just switched to a video streaming app.

- @ruouttaurmind If I had one handy it would work. But I generally only listen to audio books when I travel. It’s not a bad choice for housecleaning, though, I could bluetooth it to the surround sound.

- @jst1ofknd @UncleVinny Not too life changing since I remember life before the internet. Those after me though, for sure.

- @tnhillbillygal I finished binge watching Downton Abbey last night. I haven’t decided what is next if anything. I should swear off video and get some work done.

- @speediedelivery I am re-watching it. I got my mom hooked on it after I won the first few seasons on dvd. She had never been hooked on a show before but she loved it. I am enjoying it as much for the second time as I did the first.
