I solved my Great Courses playback issue all by myself like a big boy
I went into settings, and turned off autoplay, then I went to the one where I needed to watch which was already watched, and just deftly moved with the arrow on the bottom to the beginning!!
It's a massive holiday time of the year so it's understandable they didn't reply to my plea for help, they were I can imagine seeing my message and going, if he can't figure it out, he's not the kind of learner we desire here.
Now a word about being dramatic and selfish.
I consciously try my best to bring my best self here, when I say selfish I mean overall, how I'd rather be alone irl, than actually get dressed and go to things, at the family gathering I uttered a short but truthful thing to the husband of my niece, I missed their wedding you see, and i've missed many other momentous events in the lives of my greater family, I said to him and by extension everyone within earshot when they were saying how I'm not in many of the pictures of those events, "I tend to miss things", but I didn't feel any judgment or condemnation, they understand that i'm a hermetic type, but from my pov it contains a dizzying degree of rank selfishness.
And being dramatic, it's like getting all emotional, I am for the most part against it, but it spills over, and it looks to me to be unsightly, like acne that shines too bright even without a light source. It's like I'm some crummy sob going around hugging everyone.
There's a metaphorical reality that may seem to be not there to the sight of others, but I see it all too clearly.
Ideally I will be a cool cucumber, saying some of the times an arresting phrase that was given to me from a piece of paper with wings from the heavens, designed by Terry Gilliam, he was the Monty Python guy who did those funny imagery like angels blowing trumpets with their butts.
In about 2 hours I may be needed on the phone, but besides that, it's drinking and learning, it's disgusting btw, my glass I had my drink in attracted dozens of fruit flies!! Endless is grossness of this natural world, oh for the realm of spirit, of the immaterial and eternal!!
