a dream about being a person.

at long last, my project for searching youtube captions/transcripts is available publicly!

https://j2transcripts.org

i downloaded subtitles from every video in the playlist by Emily Kitchen, Every Jared & Jensen Panel (up to date 2026) and all of @detailtilted videos which have full and correct captions. current total is 591 transcripts.

you can search exact phrases by "search phrase in quotes", if you use multiple words not in quotes, it will only return things with every word in your search.

after you search, on the right under the three line button, you can open the filters. i labeled panels that were jared and jensen only as j2, their respective solo panels and everything else falls under others; which may include j2 as well or just one of them. once you click through to a panel, there's tags which includes the year, the con and the people.

i also include an embedded youtube video that the transcript came from. recommend find in page/ctrl-f if you're looking for a specific phrase/word because they often aren't super easy to read due to being largely based on the auto-generated captions (which are getting better all the time but a con panel environment isn't always great audio)

the numbers are the timestamps, so this one for example, you can go to the 6 minute mark in the video to find it.

for the case of gayled_it's videos, i fortunately downloaded the transcripts before her account got zapped so they are in here!

the gayle's archive link will take you to the relevant folder on the google drive that Kanata set up which an archive of all of her videos that we could track down (with approval from gayle), link to the drive in their twitter bio, also here. i preserved the original youtube link so you can use it in the wayback machine on archive.org as well, if needed/desired.

this is primarily for searching the transcripts, but it also serves kind of as a way to find videos in an organized fashion with the consistent tags for the cons, the people and years. hopefully it's useful on both fronts!

i'm working with @j2wiki on also combining their archive of transcriptions into this project, which are complete/readable. i'll keep everyone updated on that as it goes.

It's like how a bunch of celebs were big on body positivity and fat liberation...until Ozempic dropped and it turns out no, none of them ever believed any of that! They just pretended to bcs up until now healthy, long term weight loss was impossible so they had no choice but to cope by learning to love themselves no matter how they looked...but now that it's here we can go back to the truth! Being fat is ugly and gross and unhealthy and you should starve yourself and take experimental meds right now so you can be skinny which is what ALL humans are clearly supposed to be!! Yeah that body positivity stuff was fun, but come on. We know you actually just wanna be skinny and think being fat is a fate worse than death.

That's what it feels like to me. Every single time. Honestly in a lot of other areas too, one of the big issues with the left is that they really do seem to think that Republicans are right about how things work and should work but we just pretend otherwise because it's the right thing to do and it reduces suffering. Which seems fine, but you cannot be an effective leftist like this. You do actually have to deconstruct your beliefs and biases and world systems, you can't go around like "well yeah we aren't gonna kill disabled people that's eugenics and it's wrong" when you clearly don't actually think it's wrong. You think eugenics would work but implementing it would be uncivilized, and it shows. You have to actually understand that racism and ableism and all other forms of bigotry are not just cruel, but entirely incorrect.

people i generally respect will go after someone's appearance, skull shape, because they are an awful person. and especially when it's someone well respected with a large audience, it all the more encourages other people to take shots at people's appearance or health or whatever. it makes me so, so mad.

it's still a much more work in progress and i might break the view sometimes but it's here (i will do a proper post for sharing once it's done but for interested parties who want to follow along now)

and i also need to add 419 more posts lol
