Greetings Cosmic Miserablists, Mad Philosophers, and Wild Jokers!

The only way I have been able to really get into these threads we have gathered is to choose "print" then SAVE-AS-PDF the entire thread, then send it to a Kindle.   I am requesting that, in a nonchalant, take-it-as-it-comes manner, that you (anyone: members, guests) mention the threads from our various forums that you think would help me keep my head/heart together during these seasons which find me struggling constantly.

For example, I type the word 'homelessness' into our local search engine, then choose from the results http://whybother.freeboards.org/what-now/a-strange-orbit/.  That is 4 pages I can send to the Kindle and read it when I am dead in the water (most of the time).

Of course, some threads do not do well when converted into the Kindle, such as Mathematics for Jailbirds

Explanation:  by dead-in-the-water I mean that my hands are tied due to lack of funds or other obstacles which prevent me from "getting anything done" or "satisfying any needs or wants".

What it actually means:   If something is dead in the water, it has failed and it seems impossible that it will be successful in the future

Also, could someone test these links for me to see if they open or play for you the way they do for me.  I may have to tweak permissions at Dropbox?

I will place some here too if I am not under duress to move very rapidly just to get the threads into my Kindle.   Yes, I wrap it in plastic.   :-[

This would suffice.  Just a link to the thread so I can save-as-pdf and shoot into Kindle.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Holden.  I will "print" that thread, Brute Facts: Angst, Apathy, Anxiety, Frustration, into the precious Kindle device/contraption.

There is a method to my madness.  The kind of psychological horror I experience as my LifeWorld [Lebenswelt] is Lovecraftian in the sense that, all I ask of myself is to keep my head together, to not go mad ... or, if I do find myself leaning strongly in the direction of madness, then to, at the very least, not panic.

I want to BE NOT AFRAID as the Abyss engulfs me.

You have to copy and paste the URL address in two different motions, since I can't do anything about the s h i t in it.  It is inaccessible due to Net Nanny methodologies, the Security Culture Strikes Again.

threads: Uncle Teddy, Hell, Bash Positive Thinking

UNCLE TEDDY:

HELL:

http://whybother.freeboards.org/what-now/hell/msg11355/#msg11355

Note that I am placing threads here for my own personal, technical reasons.  I do not have the luxury to browse too much, so I try to organize threads during one session at the library, then I come back another time with Kindle and Ctrl-P Save-to-PDF, to mail it to Kindle via "Convert".

Then, when I am isolated in a dimension called loneliness throughout the long night, or in the morning, these discussions help me process "reality."
