Firefox clipboard
I have always been able to copy and paste a screenshot without it going to the clipboard. Now, this morning it's telling my screenshots are going to clipboard. My question is where is the clipboard. I am not happy and you might have just lost a customer.

Hey gn4rest,
You may want to check this article Take screenshots in Firefox.
That article tells me how to take a screenshot which I could already do. I had been doing screenshots and pasting them where i wanted for some time. Suddenly, it began to copy the screenshots to a clipboard. I am very frustrated with it because I have no idea where the God Damned clipboard is or how to access it. It’s a feature I’d rather not have. In addition, I do not like the fact I cannot contact Firefox directly to help me with the issue. I do appreciate your help, though.
The clipboard is only a temporary container so you can't really "access" it the way you access a folder, for example. You will only see the file when you paste the content elsewhere.
This thread might give you more context about that.
It had never before had the little notification in the upper right hand corner of my screen stating it had been saved to the clipboard and it will not paste to another location. I think I’m switching to Chrome.
Alternatively, you can choose to download instead of copy it to the clipboard. It'll make it a lot easier for you so you don't have to decide where to paste it.
There are also tons of extensions that you can use for screenshot..
I still don’t understand why it started doing this. It never had before. Possibly, an update to Firefox. I don’t want to add on extra stuff that I should not need. Thanks for your help.

That's totally fair. It must be frustrating. Though I don't have the answer why it started on the first place. If you can start using the Download instead of Copy, that would make it easier for you.
