Speaker #0hello folks and welcome back to your emotional soundboard yes this is the first time i'm saying the actual name of the podcast wow does she know how to run one um should i introduce so i for i thought hmm look at me planning stuff i thought i could look up a bunch of awkward or mis communicated just like really interesting texts that people uh have submitted online and see what we can just see what the response is and what we maybe would we would do in that specific situation i can say i have sent a few of emotional like awkward texts i'm trying to think if i've ever accidentally sent some like something to someone i have i've definitely liked a picture or liked a post when you know when you're like You're look- you're stalking- you're internet stalking on someone's page or you're inter- you're internet stalking on like their second cousin to see photos of themselves on their page. Maybe I'm just crazy. But then you're like on your like 20th page photo down and accidentally hit the like button. And now they have a notification on their phone that you liked a photo from like 400 weeks ago, which is just crazy. I don't know if anyone else has had the experience. That has happened to me way too many times. People wonder, maybe you should just stop internet. Maybe I should stop internet stalking, who knows. So we're going to see what the internet has in store for us for these. Um, these are very older. They're not recent. I wanted something from like a while ago. So I went searching for the archives. Actually, this was literally like the first thing that came up. did not spend a lot of time oh my god i'm really bad at reading why did i pick this okay so this person says a friend of ours texted her 20 year old my panties are soaked right now thinking she was sending it to her husband he texted her back um do you want me to bring you new ones oh my god i feel like i would die oh my god i would die I feel like this one's so embarrassing because it's a family member. Like, ugh. Sorry, you just saw a picture of my freaking vagina. Oh my god. I feel like every person in my family has accidentally seen me naked at this point. That sounds horrific. There's a- oh my- I think my- my go-to response would be, like, did you send- is this meant for me? Is this a mishap? Uh, I feel like that's scarring. That might just be me. Oh my god. Let's go on for that one. I didn't read that, the family part of that. Um, a friend of mine attempted to text me, you should fuck Laura. Instead, he sent it to Laura. Oh my god. I've done that before. Not like the details, but like you meant to send it to someone else and you literally just... You're talking behind their back and you accidentally just send it to them straight to their face. This one's more acceptable because I feel like if you were talking shit and you're like, oh my god, Laura's such a freaking bitch, and then you send it to Laura, I don't think you can recover from that. This one, oh my god, it's kind of degrading, is it? It depends on who the person is. They might- they might see it as like really degrading they might see it as funny let's hope it's funny because oh my god some i want to see the response to that what do you say it's probably going to be like one of those like rude sayings of like you know only in your dreams it's not that rude okay see this is exactly what i'm talking about was texting my best friend about some girlfriend issues at the time Said something to the effect of, it feels like I'm just waiting for her to break up with me. Accidentally sent it to said girlfriend. She was currently in the same room as me. Watched as she looked at her phone, looked at me, then took me outside and broke up with me. Oh my god, that was horrible. Have you seen, like, that viral video where this girl is, they're, like, trying to, like, was it, like, cliff jumping or something? And she's, like, really anxious to go out or to, like, jump. And her boyfriend literally just pushes her off the cliff and then as she's falling she's like, I'm breaking up with you! I feel like this is the same type of energy. This is horrible! Uh, I feel like, um, it could have been worse. He didn't say, I want to break up with her. Like, oh, I can't wait to get rid of this girl. It was like, oh, I feel like I'm just waiting for her to break up with me. That could be... Okay, that could be two things. That could be either he's done with the relationship and he doesn't want to end it. Or he thinks that she's done with the relationship and doesn't want to end it. Oh, that just does not sound good. At least that got resolved. Oh, my God. That's such a way, like, I've definitely known people, like, the way they've broken up with people is, like, you know, through a friend. Like, tell blah, blah, blah that we're done. Which, like, is that an okay way to break up with someone? I feel like depends on the level of your relationship. If we're, like, at, like, toothbrush at their play stage, I feel like... I don't know. I don't know. I don't feel like it's that bad. I feel like if you're like straight up like living with someone or it's like really serious relationship, then it gets into the problems. But I don't know. I feel like that it's just really disrespectful if you're putting, I feel like if it's that, like you put that much time and effort into a relationship, into a person, and then you don't want to actually like, it depends on how it ends too. Like if someone's cheating on you, you do not have to end that. I feel like you have the full right to like walk away and not have to like, it's obviously it could help you. You don't have to like sit one day wondering what if, if this happened, if this happened, would I be happier? But I feel like that could be, you could be playing that game with no matter, you know, no matter what decision you make. rant over this one's so bad too okay oh my god the most embarrassing for me was actually one that i received i had a second date with a girl and a few hours before the date she texted me whatever happened to the guys that gave us butterflies she texted back saying it was not meant for me then stood me up oh my god you know exactly what happened this girl literally was mortified and then she literally just 100% disassociated with you, which is fucking horrible. Oh my god, this is- can you imagine? I think this all happened because this girl was afraid to say, like, oh, I'm not into you. Which is horrible because it escalated so far, and this person probably was, like, really excited for this date. I feel really so- I feel really bad. Oh my god. Honestly, it's not that bad of a thing, like- This is literally the only thing that if you get caught, then it's bad. Because she was literally just like, oh, you know, I'm not feeling it. Which is honest, and it's not like she's like, oh my god, this guy looks like a complete piece of shit. Or, that's not even a good phrase, you know? Like, he's not like, oh, this man is unkept. I don't like the look of this person. Like, she was literally like, oh, I don't feel anything. Which sucks, because she put it on the person. And I don't think it's like their responsibility to make you have feelings for them, which that does sound a little bit ugh. But then like you have to confront that conversation. You have to follow up. She didn't literally want to even deal with the interaction after that. I feel like this is so hilarious. It's not hilarious because I feel so bad. But oh my god. This one, this one hurts. Sent a text to my girlfriend asking for some nudes. actually sent it to my mom she was coming to visit the next day so i couldn't even hide still comes up at family gatherings that's horrific that's something that you're gonna get mocked up for the rest of your life hey mom you want some nudes that is so that's like literally calling your teacher mommy like you're you're never going to live that down and because it's like there's nothing perverted about it at all it's just horribly horribly bad timing It's so funny. Like, oh my god. If this happened in my family, like, this would be laughed about for the rest of our lives. I once got this text from my boss, I hope you fucking die. I know I wasn't the intended recipient, and she later sheepishly explained that I'm right next to her ex-husband and her contacts. But I was surprised that it still packed an emotional wallop. What? Oh my god, I've had- I've had people, honestly, I'm gonna be honest, I've had people say a lot worse, but, like, the fact that they're in that position is the issue. That would scare me, honestly, I'm gonna swear to God, that would scare me. A lot of these people are just accidentally telling their family they want to fuck them. Okay, we're ending on this one. A girl I had just met texted me asking for a ride. I said, sure, tonight I'll be somewhere in your ass. Except that I meant area and autocorrect blessed me. And then my phone died for like three hours. This sounds like you're going to go to jail. Like, oh my god, I would be so scared. Oh, this is terrifying. Your phone died for three hours? This is the type of thing that- My phone wouldn't die, but I wouldn't look at the message, and I wouldn't realize that I autocorrect sent ass, and I would just go about my day. And then somehow I would get a response to be like, what the fuck? Oh no, I literally just accidentally sent something really creepy. I'm sorry. Oh my god, this would kill me. I would die. These were horrible. So I guess the moral of the story is click before you send, because you could- it could be something that you don't actually intend to send and score someone so so i was thinking about i feel like everyone knows about this one like i don't i think like it's i don't know how like exact this is but i feel like everyone is aware of it and that's like the was it five the five love languages so there's words of affirmation Like saying someone's like, like it could depend on each person. Like saying someone's beautiful, complimenting them, making them feel good about themselves with words is the, I think. And then there's acts of service. So like cleaning for them, making them a meal, giving them a ride, receiving gifts. That could be anything from like receiving like an actual gift to like. I feel like, um, I feel like that one doesn't have to be materialistic. And I say this because I know there's like a large percent of the population where it's not like really realistic for them to shell out like an extra $2,000 after, for whatever date they have. Not that I'm shaming you if you do, because that's crazy. But if you can't, I don't think it's like the end of the world. And then there's quality time, which is definitely one of mine. Obviously, I think, obviously, that's one's so weird. I think that one's just literally just, like, spending time together, like, being together. There's, like, I think this is actually for children, but it's called parallel play. And it's literally when, like, two people are just in the same area, and they're doing completely separate things. But they're just in the same area together. And then physical touch. So that could be, I feel like that could be anything from like romance to like maybe sexual. I feel like I think intimacy when I think of that one. So I like hugging, kissing, cuddling. Why do I sound like I'm about to cry? They said that this only actually proves communication, not actually making people happy. But I feel like that's the whole thing of this is like. understanding and how to like go around all this red tape to figure out how to make someone happy because sadly when you meet someone usually someone's not they're not gonna hand you a manual be like how to make me happy these are the things you do to make me happy like that's not gonna happen so then you have to find out kind of like guess what you have to do the right thing by getting to know them and then you figure out okay she's happy when I say she's beautiful so I shouldn't I need to tell her she's beautiful more she's happy when I kiss her so I should I should kiss her more like there's different different type of things for different type of people and I feel like learning that for someone specifically it's like I only get the one size fits all and I feel like that's why people get in such difficult situation because figuring out what like what someone needs and what someone wants can be one of the hardest things to do in a relationship. And in the modern society that we live in today, people don't really communicate. There's people that can't communicate. And then, like, we kind of have set up an environment where it's not cool and it's not, there's no space for people to openly be vulnerable and communicate. So it's created, if I had to say, like, the number one problem, I think, in almost any relationship can be communication. communication like if you can find me a relationship with someone who has like no problems whatsoever it's gonna be someone that has no issues communicating like none whatsoever not that like that's the only issue but it like it's literally one of the main ones and i feel like it's a common one in almost every relationship because it's a really hard thing even for people who have been in a relationship for a long time especially when we're talking about disclosing about stuff that is very hard for you to open up with anyone, let alone, like, a therapist. Now you have to open up with, like, every single person that you meet now. Like, it can definitely be very daunting, and I feel like this was just made as, like, a blueprint to basically just read your partner and figure out what they need, which is helpful because I feel like my brain, how it works, I'll be like, okay, there's a problem. What do we need to do to fix the problem? So I know mostly people think emotionally, so they react to the behavior, right? And I'm like, what's the cause is usually how my brain works and how I try to think about it. Which is like, let's not look at the side effects right now. Let's see what's causing the side effects. Because if you're just treating the side effects, nothing's going to actually get fixed. And there's obviously times when you're in a relationship. When you're just like, my goal is not to fix anything. My goal is to feel better right now by lashing out on someone. Which when I say it like that, it sounds horrible. But I understand that everyone, it's hard, it's a hard thing to do. It's extremely hard. And I'm definitely not, it's hard not to judge when you're also in that state. But I'm not a person to usually judge someone while they're in a volatile state. Or they're having trouble processing what they're feeling. So I feel like... most people like instinctually just react to like the behavior the side effects of whatever happening and I always try to like think about it I'm not always right but I literally always try to think about it okay like what is causing this what is like the root cause because if we can fix this or we can make the cause better then the side effect issues the things that we are having trouble coping with as well go away so it's hard to always be in that mindset of that phrase that I always say is this going to make me feel better or is this going to fix the situation because there's points there's a large lot of points in life when you're not able to think about someone else while you're in distress that phrase of like you can't you can't pour from an empty cup if you have not filled up yourself and you're not complete there's no way you can help someone else that it's not going to happen so I feel like I try to operate in a great a state of grace not that I'm like trying to enable the behavior and make it okay or make people want to act out in that specific way but it's so hard to shame someone while they're in while they're in a state of struggle I don't I don't again I don't want to enable someone but I don't want to shame someone again let me just repeat while they're struggling Like, I don't think that's gonna help at all. I feel like it's... Let's figure out what's causing this and then maybe this won't happen again. Maybe that's just how I operate. I know a lot of people are like, oh, I don't want to be their parent. I'm like, some of us, some people are not as blessed to have an actual, not an actual, but to have an environment where you were raised and taught how to behave in society. There's a large percentage of people that are not raised like that. And there's... there's honestly not a lot of help to give you information on how to do it when you're already out in society and even if there was there's not a huge incentive to make people want to do that so I I feel like I'm not going to be the person to say I'm not your mom I'm not going to do this I'm not your blah blah blah that's not who I am personally especially when I look at something and I see that this is something that you're severely lacking in I'll try to help you. And I know a lot of people think it's enabling, and a lot of people don't even think it's the responsibility is where the I'm not your mom comes in the program. But in my head, if you made that commitment to be with that person in a relationship in any state, you have made a commitment to be with them while they're struggling and while they're thriving. And I feel like most people at the beginning stage, they want the honeymoon phase. Me talking on no knowledge whatsoever. But I feel like the best parts in a relationship is to see how you guys... react and how you guys work together when you guys are struggling because i feel like it's so easy to love someone when you when you guys are both thriving it's so easy but then i feel like that's when you see actual love is when someone's struggling and you actually have to get down on your knees and get dirty and get into the same environment however their struggle is to to show your love. And I feel like that's the hard part. That's the difficult part. That's the part that sometimes people can't maintain in. And obviously, there's people that are doing behaviors that just don't need to be happening, whether you're in a relationship or not. And I feel like when you're in a relationship, it just highlights that. So, I don't know. It's hard to say the line of like... Do I allow this behavior or am I making it worse by not trying to stomp it out? I don't think stomping it out is ever good. I don't think anyone's going to listen to that. I think it's, okay, this is the problem. This is why this is a problem. Let me try to solve the problem. How are we going to solve the problem? I've never been a fan of like, let me just attack the problem and it's just going to go away. Because I just don't think it's going to work. I think it's... easy and i think it's what we're taught to do and we're taught it's one of those things that's passed down of like when you think of like okay why are we spanking this kid okay because we were taught to do this this is what our parents said this is what teaches them to like not do this right but i'm like okay what is the actual evidence not evidence but like what is the theory behind this what is like this the scientific proof that you guys have found that this actually works and does no damage. And there's none. at least that 90% of society will tell you they've looked into. And it's because it's the thing that they've been taught by their parents to do. And in their head, because this isn't grooming, but it's in the same line. I wouldn't consider it grooming because it's not the intent. And the intent is the same as what is the issue. But you basically have someone that can do no wrong because you've created such a bond, an emotional connection. That even if they're doing something that is detrimental to you or I, the other way around, you're still going to view them in a specific way because of how, the period of time that they helped you in. And that's why it's almost so difficult to call out your parents' behavior. It's so much difficult to stop a cycle. Because almost stopping that cycle is saying that something that your parents did is wrong. And something that they did to you. scarred you and saying that while they're standing right in front of you it's very it's very daunting and scary and you scare and you're worried about their well well-being so i there's like there's so many generations that i feel like are doing stuff they don't necessarily even believe is the right thing to do but they're so worried on what's going to happen if they don't do it and i don't know how we fix that because when you When that has been solidified in your head for so long at that period of time, I don't know if that can be unlearned. It's like learning a new language at, like, 70 years old. It's possible, but it's, like, probably one of the hardest things that you can do versus you go to a child and you teach them, like, eight languages. They can pick it up like that because their brain is like a sponge and it's so absorb- it's- it's so absorb- I'm making a board here. But then, uh... you go to someone whose brain has aged and matured a little bit and it's extremely harder for them to pick up these skills and for them to learn new things because our brains are basically already like wired that way like i know i don't know the actual country this was from so i won't quote it because i don't want to give you misinformation but they're they used to do foot binding so they They would literally like. put these they would put these people's feet in these tiny shoes when they were younger so much that their feet you can look this up right now which just google foot binding their feet were permanently formed in a different state because they were kept in that state for so long so literally you can you they can take off their shoe and maybe there's a surgery that they can find i don't want to know what they what they're trying to do to someone against their will Not but when Listen my train, but these people's feet are literally permanently damaged to a point of no return because of where they were brought and raised in. And it's just, it's really disheartening. It's really upsetting because I'm just, it's just like there's so many people that are maybe damaged to no end. It doesn't mean that they're less than or that they're not as, that someone's better than them, but it's just like, there's nothing we can do. There's literally nothing we can do. And I don't know, I feel hopeless. I wanted to talk about the difference between hurt and disgust, which I feel like doesn't need to be talked about. I feel like a lot of people like to make comparison, and I feel like it just, they're two completely different things in my head. I feel like someone's hurt is like your emotional state, you're like sad or you're vulnerable, right? And I feel like when someone's disgust... disgusted it's like rejection or someone wanting to like distance from you if that's right i feel like they're both wrong but here's like my like the difference i feel like hurt has like a little bit higher on the pedestal i feel like when someone's attending to hurt someone obviously intent is not always mattering when it when hurt is the issue but when someone's like intending to do harm so they're trying to hurt someone i feel like depending on the person doing it in the situation they're in the person getting hurt is the one uh i don't want to say victim the person doing the hurt is the one in the wrong and i feel like when disgust is in the way usually the person that is disgusted is in the wrong like they're the one that is like the judgmental person and i feel like the two get like combined very easily even though there's like a pretty huge difference i've like disgust does have some valid reasons like i know there's just some people are wired different ways and some people have a lot of traumas and there's just very valid and justified reasons on why you would feel disgust and it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you same with why you would want to hurt someone this very just like i view it in my head and i'm so much of an emotional person when i see like a like a 25 year old man screaming at me all in my head is i see a like six-year-old boy screaming at someone and using me as a vessel to do it That's how I see in my head. And I know that's like making excuses for people, but that's literally how I view it. I view someone who couldn't stand up for themselves at the time or couldn't defend themselves being able to and then overdoing it because of their trauma. And I know that's not everyone's specific situation, but that's one of the main reasons why I'm so accepting of people lashing. out in specific situations even though it does cause hurt i do think it's a i don't think there's anything wrong with people and i don't think that necessarily they should be the one that's the one in the wrong and something that they are currently trying to process because i feel like some people think oh you're gonna go to therapy and you're gonna be magically fixed and like what do you i always think what do you think these people do in therapy What do you think is being done on there? That they're giving them this magical chemical so that they never feel sad again? Like, that doesn't happen. A lot of this stuff is people working through and processing things and figuring out why it hurts. Understanding why it hurts when you have felt pain in your stomach helps you. It helps you understand what's going on. And when you're- lactose intolerant and you're getting massive stomach pains for no reason. And then they come and tell you, hey, you're lactose intolerant. This is why this is hurting you. Sometimes there's situations you can be like, okay, you know what? I could take this or I could avoid doing this, or I could fix this. And guess what? My stomach doesn't hurt anymore. But then there's also situations where there's like, okay, let me ease your comfort. There's not much we can do, but we can help you process this. We can help you this. We can... ease this load for you. And I don't want to, I don't want people to think, oh, I'm going to feel like this for the rest of my life. Which is not true. But I don't want people to feel like, oh, therapy is a magic fix and you go to therapy and then you're no longer hurting no more for the rest of your life. Like, that's not going to happen. Even if it does work, it's an ongoing thing that you're going to have to continue to pursue. Maybe for the rest of your life, depending on who you are. I feel like it's on the level of sobriety. I feel like people, there's maybe a portion of the population that thinks that people who get sober are literally you do it once and then you're done for the rest of your life. This is something that this person has to think about constantly for the rest of their life. This is forever altered how their thinking is and how they're going to have to operate because of something that probably happened to them. And it's just, I don't know. I feel like people need to have a little bit more empathy. I hate saying that because I understand. I understand wholeheartedly. why people some people don't and i just feel like maybe if we can create environments where people understand why situations are going on i how many eureka moments i've had in my 20s in my literally like almost am i in my late 20s now when literally not a child of literally being like oh my god i never knew that and then when i figured it out it's like almost everything in my life made sense literally you figuring out one thing makes everything in your life almost like fit together because you're literally like holy shit that is exactly what I needed to know because it it doesn't fix everything but you're looking at almost everything in your life that has happened in a different light of like oh that's how I viewed that that was definitely in a skewed view from a very small What? viewpoint of what I got to see and I feel like I'm always throughout my whole life maturing and thinking oh my god I'm so mature I know everything how how how ignorant was I years ago like that's literally what I think every single year and then you look back in five years and you're like oh shit I was not I did not know anything half the shit I thought I knew was wrong like I don't think there's ever a chance when you stop learning and you stop absorbing mean. Because it's like you have a doctorate in a specific degree, and then someone comes up to you, and they're in a completely different field. And someone's like, well, but I have a doctorate. And then there's other people that are being like, but I can learn more. I could get another one. I could learn. I know nothing about this topic. And that's also something that is like along the toxic masculinity where it's almost people are made ashamed. to voice that they don't know something. Like, they're literally made to feel bad about something that they have no control over. I wanted to talk about unrequited love for a bit. Which I don't know if you guys know, it actually literally lights up the same thing as like physical pain. Which sounds freaking scary as hell. So, in case there's anyone that doesn't know what unrequited love is, it's literally like, you're- you love someone but maybe they don't feel the same towards you which I've definitely felt before I don't know if anyone has it's probably one of like not the worst but it's like I would say it almost feels like someone's cheating on you like it's that type of overcome a feeling which is the only thing where I'll distance myself and I'll be like basically trying to check myself and be like Okay, I'm looking at this analytically and technically I shouldn't be mad here. They haven't technically done anything in the wrong. So literally me holding this person accountable for something that my feelings, I've never felt comfortable doing. I have this real, yes. I have issues of someone like consenting to something that they don't actually want to consent to. is my issue. So, um, pressuring someone to do something because I feel something literally makes me feel like shit. So, it's a no-go for me, and, uh, normally I try to distance myself because it's really hard to be in the same environment that, with the person that you're in love with who doesn't feel the same. And it's hard because, like, Obviously, we talked before, there's like separate layers of you can love someone, but then it's a completely different thing to be in love with someone. And I feel like unrequited love is like just a freaking recipe for rejection and pain and suffering, which is not fun. So I feel like it's so hard because I have such sympathy for people and I have such for both sides of this situation. And that's the issue. I wish I could be like. wholeheartedly on one side or the other but I feel for both of the people in the situation which makes it which makes it really hard to figure out who's in the wrong and who's the person that should be respecting the other person's feelings I feel like it just hurts so much because now you have like someone telling people that you're like delusional and you're imagining a whole one-sided relationship Which is so helpful. And I think it's usually for how people end up lashing out. Which is so sad because when there's like three sides of this. Or like it's a scale, I would say. So you have the extreme left side of the scale. So those are the people that are innocent. Like so extremely innocent that it makes people want to protect them. And then you have like the middle ground. And those are people that are literally like... Just I would say decent people like you don't really have you don't really think they're like really good, but they're not really bad They're just people that you know Probably you would say is like the normal everyday person that you would run into and then on the far right side of the spectrum It's people that are maybe traumatized or people that are raised in a specific environment just the end product is just something that offends a lot of people or hurts a lot of people when that person that the issue with that is the fact that no one wants to help that person out like the side of that spectrum is literally when something happens to you it's justified to happen to you because of the way you've acted which is so hard and then i've had i've been in circumstance when like someone's like maybe perceived as really innocent and then they act out in that certain way, it's almost like every, I don't know, you could say accommodation that would have been provided for someone in that specific situation gets taken away completely. And it's horrible because it's usually someone that needs it desperately, but it's just based on this person did X, Y, Z, so I'm not going to do X, Y, Z. Which, obviously, if it's, like, you know, the extreme measures, like murder, or, like, sex, you know, you know, like, things that are, like, very unforgivable, uh, I, we could have a different conversation on if redemption is worth it. But it sucks, because it's literally mainly the other two that get help when something happens. And not that that should be just, that's not that- that's justified or how that should work that's how it ends up happening and then the left side of the the spectrum we could say literally probably gets literally ostracized by society because the right side doesn't get help so it's literally like isn't it equal balance or have we made an equal balance of this person struggles, so this person struggles, so it's equal. Which I don't know if I like that's how, like, our go-to. It sucks because it's literally, like, I feel like that's made for the viewpoint of the person of, who has been punished severely every time they've done something. And then they look at someone who's been in the exact same position and they've never gotten a slap on the wrist. And so they start internalizing in their head. Is there something wrong with me? What is making people, like, what about it is making this person act this extreme for me but completely ignore this other person? So I feel like when you have that type of person and you present a scenario where you're punishing someone completely innocent just to reverse the situation, it does kind of make them feel valid, which is horrible. Because I wish we could just create an environment where, like, none of that was happening. Like, I feel like if this person isn't getting fed, the solution isn't to take away food from this other person. I feel like if this person isn't being fed, the solution is to make sure the person gets fed. But it's so hard to do that when someone views themselves or society has made them view themselves in a specific way. And obviously I feel like the left side needs to be protected. I feel like when people are so innocent, it creates like a bubble that makes them very susceptible to manipulation and people using them and just... not understanding motives and understanding that yes someone could be doing something transactionally and not give a crap about how you feel personally or emotionally and i feel like that's why people the protection is also there is because a lot of people think in their eyes that they're not able to protect themselves and i think the fear of them not being able to protect themselves leads people to protecting them for them Which also creates a ripple effect of what we've just talked about, about not feeling equal and someone feeling like they don't get the same level of support. Because maybe this person's not as vulnerable, but maybe they're literally getting no help whatsoever based on how they act. Which is not fair, because this person is only receiving help because of how they act. Did you guys know that there's like a doomsday clock? So this was like created back in 1947, I think. I think. And it's basically about, it's supposed to show you like how close we are to like the end of the world. There's like a bunch of different reasons. Like I think right now it's like nuclear tensions, AI risks in climate crisis. The AI one scares the crap out of me. When I'm looking at this right now, I'm like, okay, so are you guys telling me the fear is the fear? I'm probably like perceiving this way wrong. But in my head, I'm like, okay, the computers are going to attack us, right? Is this turning into Terminator? Literally, if AI is literally coming to get us, it's creating a mind of its own. Should we stop this? Like if that's the fear from scientists, I don't, is it AI or like the stuff that AI brings? But they literally think that it's going to end the world. And this is coming from 100% scientists. And as of, this was, like, I think it's 90 seconds to midnight. Which, it's not moving that far, but it's moved back and it's moved forward. It's, like, as I said before, it's based on, like, a bunch of different shit. On, like, what they think the classifications of the world would end on. And... it can literally be from like someone bombing us to literally ai to climate crisis which is like crazy ice not ice storm i don't think we could all die from an ice storm but you know like the ice age stuff like that so they basically compile all those risks and they calculate how close we are to the world ending i don't know like how accurate it is but it's supposed to basically say how close we are to the end of the world i don't know what's supposed to be comforting or like like security theater thing i because i don't know if you guys knew this but like the security i like tsa when you go to airport actually does nothing like the security measures that they do to like stop terrorist attacks are not actual security measures it's literally all theater security theater and And it's... supposed to be there to make yourself feel that i think of like obviously like uh i gotta stop quoting i'm just gonna do a buffy quote of like she has like she carries a stake around with her 24 7 as like her security blanket and it's not i mean it will help her but it's literally just there to make herself feel safe it's it's like literally someone carrying a gun which might actually cause risk to you, but Your choice. It's literally like someone carrying a gun and being like, okay, I'm not going to use this, but it's just going to make me feel safe that if anything happened, then I would be okay. So the TSA is literally posting, their whole job is literally just to make people feel safe in case anything did happen. It doesn't actually stop any attacks from happening. I was going to go longer, but my laptop is freaking out and I did not prepare that well for this. So I'm going to end this really quickly. And as always, all the, all my, all my links will be down below if you're watching on YouTube.
