Happy Pride Month!

 

Happy Pride Month!

🌈🌈🌈

#PrideMonth is celebrated every June. The catalyst of the modern day movement towards LGBTQ+ rights was the Stonewall Riots in 1969. The month of June was chosen to commemorate this.

Playlists | Future playlists!

My second post after creating No Tan Diario Chronicles blogspot in January 2025, was about the labels and playlists that I would use and the hope to streamline them a bit so that they correlate better with the YouTube channel because my blog is now more of a video blog. At the time, I included my then playlists in alphabetical order and linked to them. 

The two posts prior to this one have some of the recent updates on some of those playlists. Scroll back if you want to read about and/or watch those. You could also just head on over to the No Tan Diario Chronicles YouTube Channel to watch. 

Now for the purpose of this post, Future Playlists.

I've shared in the past that I struggle with Eliminating Clutter, and one of the things that has helped is taking a photo or video that I would then post on Instagram with the #FotosDeCosasEliminadasParaRecordarlas,with the actual physical item donated and sometimes discarded. These are a couple of videos on my YouTube channel related to this: 

What I Wore. ~ 07 June 2010

Was wearing my Batman t-shirt. ~ 12 June 2010

After my beautiful mother passed at the end of 2019, I found myself with quite a bit more stuff to eliminate. Here a video of  one such item.

Reducing the amount of items like those wasn't too much of a struggle as are the more personal items. Admittedly, it's been more difficult than I wish it was. I've also acquired items from other relatives that have passed.

Why do I share this and what does it have to do with future playlists?

Because my preferred method of sharing is with YouTube videos/shorts/posts, I've decided that I'll be creating new/additional playlists with the hope that they help with this. I've got the gist of what those will entail and will update as they come to fruition.

It may take me just as long if not longer than the playlist section 📟 Analog to Digital: A Time Warp Journey  did. 

May we accomplish what we can on this journey. NoTanDiarioChronicles

Playlists | 📟 Analog to Digital: A Time Warp Journey

Although it took me almost a year, I finally have at least one video for each of the playlists that are part of my 📟 Analog to Digital: A Time Warp Journey. They are also much more clearly defined in terms of what each entails. 

📼 Analog Musings 

A personal archive of digitized cassette tapes and vinyl records from my own collection—each track preserved with all its authentic imperfections, warm hiss, and nostalgic crackle. These are raw, unfiltered sounds from another era, carefully transferred with minimal clean up.

📀 Bonus Features

The hidden gems of my DVD collection include deleted scenes, behind-the-scenes clips, my favorite scenes, forgotten extras, and occasionally videos about the packaging, inserts, booklets, or unboxing. In many cases, the best moments weren't in the main feature.

💿 Data Disc Dreams

A digital mixtape of CD-era treasures—mostly music, occasional software extracts, and other rips from the laser burn era.

Memories of Yore: Photos from my Mother's Camera

Stargate Special Edition | DVD Case and Booklet Insert

Stargate Special Edition | DVD Case and Booklet Insert

Because Stargate is one of my all-time favorite movies, I decided that it would be fitting that showing the front and back of the DVD Case, opening the case, and paging through the booklet insert would be the first video of my playlist titled "📀 Bonus Features." → https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL16w-SVd2cc1QpaBpDBatReWeUUwWAhyU&si=zJLEQxtuTbUO50-u

My original plan was to video myself doing that. However, I chose to make an image collage video using scans and photos due to the glare I kept getting from my camera. I did extract a few images from the footage, along with the sounds, for this collage.

Audio: I stacked the sounds of me opening the DVD case and paging through the booklet insert along with, part of the beginning music from the movie itself, and the audio of the DVD menu.
