Welcome to Pointente Vista episode 104. I am Andrew and you are standing with me on the edge of an active volcano. It is toasty up here. I'm feeling warm. The smells not great. It's a little overwhelming. Standing just to my right. It's Lucy. Hey Lucy. Hi, that smells up here. It does. What is it sulfur? Is it sulfur? Would it smell like sulfur up there? I think it's a sulfur type smell? I mean we're here. We should be the ones who can say what it smells like. Maybe you definitely being here. You just dropped one and you're trying to cover it up. Yeah. And I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I the the other. I the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the o. It's the o. It's the o' smell. It's the the the smell. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's the o. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. the. It's. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. to cover it up. Yeah and on the other side of me I've just jokingly shoved him and then pulled him back and said oh it saved you life to Theo. Hi Theo. All right so I mean first of all I do have a

note for my doctor that medically I'm not supposed to get this sweaty. Which I don't think you're taking seriously. Deploy that note. Deploy that note into the podcaster's workspace. I'm gonna need to be excused. I need a work-provided towel. Yep I'm also not allowed in the pool so it's basically illegal for you to ask me to swim. It's just a sweat towel. more of a shammy if you will. You know? I will.

Yeah. So we're up here on the volcano. And we're just all kind of standing around idly scrolling on our phones. Nobody's really interested in what's going down there with all that lava. So you know we're just like checking out the news seeing what's going down there with all that lava. So you know we're just like checking out the news. Checking out the news seeing what's going on. And folks, we regret to inform you the disgraced rugby union player Israel Falow is at it again.

He is on one and he hates everybody it turns out. He's staying on one. Even when contractually obliged to get off one, he will not. He refused. He stayed right in the saddle of that one that he is on. Yeah, it's no good folks. So we did an episode, I would say, maybe a year ago. It's been a long time since this started. It's been a saga. And yeah so this was about when Israel Falow had made a post on social media in which he said all sinners who do not repent and kiss the sweet bosom of God

will go to hell and then he had a nice itemized list of all the types of sinners that you couldn't be, and all the types of sinners that had to nuzzle up to him and kiss the sweet hairy bosom of God. So he had like alcoholics and homosexuals and adulterers and blasphemers and all kinds of all the fun ones, all the classics, you know. So as we spoke about at the time with a friend of the show Victor Rodriguez who you can find out there and you can find that episode. In fact, episode 44, Israel fail, Owl, featuring

Vic Vic and Rodriguez. Beautiful stuff, beautiful stuff. So that was more of a sports-themed episode, which we don't normally get into. Patriotism and sport, all that kind of thing. So as we spoke about on that, basically, he put that up and he was told by Rugby Australia, Hey, maybe don't? Could you not, buddy? And it started to turn into a bit of a free speech issue, which is, I think, I think contractually one of like the only three types of news stories that are allowed to be published in Australia anymore. Just freedom of speech. Which type of hardcore right-winger is being oppressed today in Australia, the very right-winged country? By continuing to say exactly what they were going to say but just not

getting paid for it. Yep, or in his case continuing to get paid for it for a while. Yeah. So he re-signed his contract which now included a special clause to say you are not allowed to post anything on social media which filifies anybody on the basis of their race, sex, religion, gender, sexual orientation, so on and so forth. And he said, sure, thing. And he signed that thing for his fucking $3 or $4 million contract, whatever it was.

Sucks when you come back to work and they make you sign a thing that says, hey, buddy, you're specifically not allowed to jack off at your desk anymore. We had to make this part of your contract. So just stop doing that and we'll all be good. No desk jacking. Much like Israel Falow, I sign it in my head saying, yeah, we'll see how long this lasts. So yeah, he signed off on that one and then turned around immediately started scrolling Facebook I assume looking for some very very hardcore Christian memes to post up on his Instagram and he was at it again but this time he included the group which

had escaped his scorn the first time of course transgender kids because they don't cough enough shit from weirdos in Australian media. So you got back into it, got back out there, back on the horse that he had never really got off of, posted it out there, and the furor kicked back in, and rugby Australia went, ooh, remember that thing we just had you sign? And you said yes and you signed it as part of the deal for all the money? Where we're going to be using that and get out, please. So he immediately attempted to say, I have been wrongfully dismissed,

I'm suing you for breach of contract, for trying to oppress me and suppress my religious freedom and all this kind of jazz, and they said you pretty blatantly violated your contract here. So he has taken it to Fair Work Australia, the Australian Tribunal for this sort of thing. Now I am unclear as to whether or not that is still ongoing. I think it might be. It's probably like multiple rounds of appeals that can go on. But as part of this effort to deal with this,

this multi-millionaire sports star decided to start up a go-fund me asking just strangers around the country for three million dollars for his legal fees for this battle. Three million. That is 1,000 percent his fault that he's having in the first place. Three million dollars. How does he even know that that's what it's going to add up to, you know? I feel like he's just, it's just like a rainy day thing. I might need three million dollars somehow.

So that started getting the money together on go fund me. A lot of derision in the Australian media, a lot of people saying, not a great look. Not a great look, millionaire celebrity to ask for everybody else to foot the bill for this thing that you seemingly had some kind of control over. I think it raised like 125, 150 grand before enough people had reported it as violating Go fund me's ter and Conditions in some form, and they pulled it. Resulting in at least 600,000 people on Twitter making the joke, this guy's just no good

at reading the terms and conditions of contracts. That's good, I hadn't seen that one. Thanks for sharing it with me. I haven't, because I've been off Twitter, but it's nice getting a little update from time to time. We only too cool for Twitter, therea. Not too cool, I'm quite the opposite. I just... God. Just too busy for a stretch.

I don't go on there anymore. It's no good. I've got too many sources of anxiety. Saw a pigeon get run over today. That's going to be... On Twitter? No. No. It was like, no wonder who are you following? That you're seeing all these pigeons get run over.

I mean, I've got all these sources, all this stimulus. I don't need this. People speaking to me. No need them doing it online. So that's kind of brought us up to where we've been at for the last day or two. This has gone in all of the extremely predictable directions that you would have thought, which is that as soon as Go Fund me said, all right, getting too much heat about this, as is often the case with this sort of stuff.

They've pulled the campaign and this has been the starter pistol for the Andrew Bolts and the Miranda Divines and the Chris Kenys of the world to come right out of the gates with the, oh, this is what the, in Miranda Divine's words, Christophobes and tolerance Nazis. Christophob. Which is a great, great turn of phrase, tolerance Nazis. Tolerance Nazis. Oh my goodness. So dumb.

But, yeah, like it's just completely plays into the hands of these people. And to demonstrate that ttoday the Australian Christian League, the ACL? What does that stand for? Lobby. I think it's Lobby. League of Extraordinary Christians. Yeah, so they came out. Does Lyle Shelton still front them or did he quit to go on be a run for

Corrie Bernaddy's now defunct party? I think he tweeted it today so he's surely involved someone. Oh he's involved in the sense he's crying about it online at any given time. But yeah, so the the Australian Christian lobby came out and said, hey, Israel Falow's rights are being trampled on by Go fund me and they left us agenda. So we're going to donate $100,000 to Israel, for the hour and start a fundraising thing for him. So this all very much played into the hand to the right, I think, because, you know, this just started off as a pretty simple case of like, the, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, the, and, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the hand to the right I think because you know this just started off as a pretty simple case of like hey you are doing public bigotry in a way

which is in flagrant breach of a contract that you knowingly signed very recently and that then immediately became a free speech issue. And now it's not about what Israel Falow is doing anymore. It's what type of public bigotry Christians allowed to do in Australia in the name of free speech or religious tolerance. I can't believe I can't hate gay people and still have my extremely well-paying job as a rugby player. It's unbelievable. Yeah, yeah I feel like we've we've talked sort of, I feel like we've kind of talked extensively about this type of issue in the past which is the whole thing of saying I'm you know I'm gonna get somebody fired for saying something.

Now look let me start off by saying, of course, I have zero sympathy for his Ralph allow whatsoever. Of course he deserved to get fired, especially in the context of he had done this previously. They had him sign a new contract with clauses about this. Yeah, they, this had already been a big deal. They had him specifically sign a new contract with clauses about this, like explicit clauses created for this exact issue.

And then he went off and did the same thing again. The exact same thing. He like posted the same meme again on Instagram. Yeah, just like putting the same shit up. He's gone to like the churches that he goes to and done done sermons about, you know, the devil in all of its forms and listed off all the same people again. I think from his perspective, a lot of it comes off to me as like just really,

I don't know, really like thumbing his nose at these groups of people and, and like, begging for there to be some kind of like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the their their their their their their their their their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, like, their, their, like, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, theirthumbing his nose at these groups of people and like begging to be, begging for there to be some kind of like outcry. I mean it's the Santa kind of thing from all these right-wing figures of like you go out and you do the thing which you know is going to cause people to be mad at you and when you get mad, when they get mad, you go, oh, everybody's trying to silence me solely for my many acts of racism. God, his Instagram is an experience. Yeah. I'm just having a little browse.

It's like, it's like unhinged, old, boomer relative type stuff. It's a lot. It's like crazy man on the streets outside abortion clinic type stuff. Nice. Yeah, it's rough. So yeah, I think, like I said, I don't give a fuck about him getting fired. And I have no sympathy for him, fuck that guy. Where I think that it gets back into the territory that we've talked about is the he puts up the thing on go fund me and lots of people then report the page and say he's trying to raise money specifically to defend his right to do bigotry. Therefore it's a violation of you know subsection B of paragraph 2 of the

terms and the terms and conditions of go fund me doesn't want to catch a whole bunch of heat about this so they the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. So th. So th. So th. So th. So the's the's the's the's the's the. So the. So the. So thoes. thoes. thoes. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the an the an the an the an the an the an thean. the an the an the an the an the an Fund Me and GoFund Me doesn't want to catch a whole bunch of heat about this so they canceled the dude's thing. But I don't, yeah, I mean with the Go Fun Me thing, I will say that their press release very much didn't concentrate, or the message I got from it was not concentrating on the terms and conditions of it, but their PR people were basically saying, thrown, their their thiiiii again, their, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, their, thi, their, their, thrown, thrown, thr-i, thr-i, thr-a, thr-i, thr-i, somea, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, somea, somea, somea, somea, somea, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, thr, thr, thr, their, their, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, somea, some saying, no, we canceled this because it fucking sucks. And we were within our rights to do it. Which is, you know, bless them. I thought that was a good move. Of the things you can do, it's good.

And it's certainly a damn side better than like, the Twitter's and the Facebooks of the world of trying to constantly sort of walk this line of saying like, hey, you know, it's like YouTube and Twitter both constantly being like, hey, we support our LGBT community and everything, but also you've got to hear both sides and we don't want to silence everybody. Like they're just trying to constantly hold up this shield of, you know, we're doing these fucking ad campaigns for Pride Month and shit while also just allowing these fucking vile communities to spread on their own platforms that they kind of don't seem to generally do anything about or very inconsistent application to their own policies, all that sort

of stuff. I think if you can make a statement about it that says, no, this is very specifically because this is a, you know, a hateful thing that is based on bigotry, and we don't, you know, we don't have a place for that on our platform. That's good and everything. But it does still come back to that larger issue that we've spoken about of. We're trying to, we're still trying to sort of let some corporate or some website be the arbiter of what gets to be a thing, which I think is still an area that a lot of people are uncomfortable with and like... Yeah, and it also leaves the room for another company to be like, no, no, you can just,

we'll let you raise funds for, if you want to get like a catapult that fires cats in the air, so that you can shoot them midair. Come on down to our platform. So... You know what we haven't spoken about in here? Jordan Peterson's announcement of that he's going to make his own like social media slash discussion platform called think spot. Think spot. It's the spot you go to think. That's not even like bad. It's just like embarrassing.

Have you seen... Think spot. But have you seen what he said, what he said about it? I have not. He said, um, once you have made a post on our site, it will not be taken down unless we are ordered to do so by an American law enforcement agency. Oh my goodness that's going to go well. Goodness can't see that going wrong at all. And they also have it's more like a Reddit type thing but they have shit like there is a minimum word count to replies. Like you have to write at least 30 words to reply to something someone said. Oh my god. This is absolutely because someone was like

shut up nerd. Yeah yeah, shut the fuck up. Oh well you know that's... Oh yeah like when somebody posts something really stupid there's like 600 replies that all just say LMAO you know? Yeah. Yeah or it's just the Sponge BoB bird meme. Oh, oh, oh tho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th oh, th oh, thi, th oh, tho, oh, th. Oh, oh, posts something really stupid, there's like 600 replies that all just say LMAO. Yeah. Yeah, or it's just the SpongeBob bird meme. And like, it's, it is of course a perfect encapsulation of the type of person who wants to use that platform, which is young guy who thinks that like being overly verbose equals being very intelligent. Yeah the more the more syllables I can get into the things I'm saying and the more sentences I pack in here the more I am correct. So obviously

Israel Flower should take a shit over to ThinkSpot. But yeah, like, and this is the point, Theo, that you're making, is it then turns into the battle of these different platforms over who's going to allow this specific type of thing, and is removing a thing from a platform, a form of censorship or whatever. And it all just makes me think that like we have said on here before, I think that one of the most successful missions of the right wing in Australia and in other Western countries over the last like 20 years has been to completely reframe and shift the goal posts around like just making everything a free speech discussion. We seem to have completely lost the ability as a society to say no

that's pretty shit get out of here. No thank you. It's just really weird though. I just maybe I'm not remembering right, but what did these people like Andrew Bolton Miranda to find say about Yasmin Abdelmaid Magdell Maguid? I'm not sure if it was writing like tens of thousands of words over the course of months and then years about how she shouldn't have a job and how she should leave the country. Because she made a single post that she then deleted and said, oh sorry, that was pretty poorly worded. It's bizarre.

I feel like, I mean, maybe they've just got onto this freedom of speech issue then. Maybe they're just coming around to it now. Recent converts. So yeah, I mean, whole thing is as depressing as most things in the Australian media are because it's mind numbing that there is so much attention and column space being devoted to all this shit and you've got, we've descended back into our default tribal packs which is right-wingers saying that everything is a matter of freedom of speech and not being censored and being allowed

to say whatever they want without anybody telling that they can't, and centrist and liberals saying, ah, but we can have the technocratic solution where the terms and conditions of this specific platform that none of us own and have no power over can be invoked to take away, make a thing that we like, make a thing that we don't like go away. And then we don't have to think about it anymore. We've got a machine that you can say a slur into, but if it's too much of a slur, a red light will come on. And that's basically how you can tell whether it's all right to say or not. Yep. As to who's in charge of those rules? Well, that's, but that's the beauty of it, Andrew, is that it's basically AI now, which is perfect, and also machine learning, which I understand to also be correct.

So yeah. They've got that covered. Infallable one might say. Inflable. I gotta say this whole thing gives me a sinking feeling. Uh-huh. And on that note, there's been some real estate news. There is. It's not, it's not great. So there has been, so there's a building called that's the the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th. In, th. In, th. In, th. In, th, th. In, th. It's is. It's not great.

So there has been, so there's a building called the mascot towers in inner city, Sydney. I guess we call it south. It's near Botany Pay. Hideous Swamp, Sydney. Yes. Now I should note, I initially thought that this was the Opal Towers. Well there's a set of, there's a set of them, right?

They come in a set. They come, like there's a whole bunch of them that are sinking into city. Or slowly splitting in half or... Yeah. Or like, or like, you know, descending to the next slightly less shitty circle of hell. This sounds like worse or better? Well, they're supposed to get worse, but as far as imagining, you know, something worse than Sydney, I guess, it's just a bit. That's the, can't really picture. Can't really. Hmm. Hmm really. So I had a whole, I was going to do a whole joke thing about this, but then I went on to Google Maps and they have, you can

go on there and they're currently reviewed as 2.2 stars, mascot tower, 24 reviews. About 22 of those reviews are people saying this place isn't all it's cracked up to be. And then the other two are people saying I am now homeless and I have to leave the country. Oh my goodness. So I, I have to throw that whole bit away now. What's happening? They're just sinking? So, about, I think it's been about a year now. And as these stories kind of go, cracks were noticed on the outside of the towers. People were of course informed, and those people were informed of the towers. People were of course informed and

those people were informed that there is no issue. It's all fine. It's fine that this apartment building that you've paid hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to buy an apartment in seems as far as you can tell with your eye to be just kind of coming apart? Yeah, and now it's being revealed that it is slowly sinking into the earth Apparently there is talk of a cover-up from from the council. I don't know how seriously to take that But a number of of things are going extremely badly badly for these buildings, I think number one of which is that they are situated in Sydney, New South Wales.

Hmm. It's a disgusting place. Can't argue with that. I think what I particularly liked about this story was like all of the, all of the very careful bureaucratic language that was being deployed. Yes. To very, to very delicately broach these various subjects.

So there was the one, the one report like from the engineers explaining what was happening, which described the, the tower as, quote, moving in a downward motion. Which I like, in a downward motion. Yeah, and all these people like, so it's sinking. And then all the news reports happened and everything, and this is from, I think, an ABC story.

The owner's corporation later released a statement clarifying the new report. Quote, there has been some differential settlement resulting in the currently observed building movements. Thanks. So it's sinking is what you're saying. I think we can all agree that developers do not deserve to live though as far as this is concerned. Horrible people. Absolutely. And so like like Theo said, this has been an ongoing thing now where there are like multiple towers around, around Sydney that seem to just be beginning to collapse in on themselves. And it's almost as if I don't want to like jump rashly to making any wild claims, but it's almost as if it has

something to do with or is related in some way to the right-wing liberal government that has been in there for several terms now and has made slashing red tape a very, very important part of their government. Hey, let's get rid of all this bureaucratic nonsense and all this red tape and all this checking to make sure that a building you've put together isn't going to slowly disintegrate. Safety regulations cut them. All these regulations.

Yes. They'res, yes. They're in my way. There's slowing things down. And I don't want to do them. They are preventing me from generating the absolute maximum profit that I could be making. We were at a kid's birthday party the other day, because that's how we get down. It's what we like to do. What do you do with those? Do you drink?

I talked to the other grown-up. So I didn't drink because it was like 10.30 a.m. On Saturday it was cold as fuck. Standing outside. Watch all these damn kids run around, super-euro outfits, thinking about eating some food, but I wasn't really into it. So I was talking to some lady who, I think she was moving into a house, she was moving into a different house, and she was buying like an older house than her current house.

Because she was like, yeah, we bought a newer house that was only, you know, single-digit number of years old, but all these houses around the suburb all have these same problems. So it'll be things like, I think in their case that, um, that yeah, that things happen like when they're getting built, in the case of their building, that first somebody had come around and laid the slab, but then because of the weather, whether it had like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like it had like, like, like, like it had like, like, like, like, like the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their their their their their their, their their their their their their their thea, thea, thea' thea' thea'ea'ea'ea'ea'ea'ea'ea, their their their their their their the case of their building, that first somebody had come around and laid the slab, but then because of the weather, whether it had like rained or was just too cold or something, the thing that was then scheduled to happen the next day or the day after that, of somebody coming and starting to like, you know, build the frame of the building on top of this foundation,

has come along and said, oh, but the foundation is still wet. And the developer's gone, I don't care. Start building on it. Because if I have to wait until it's dry, that eats into my profit, if this takes longer than I said it was going to take. So this lady had then wound up having to spend. However much of her money fixing these various issues around the house of things just starting to fall apart and disintegrate after years because

all the developers want is to rush it along as much as possible. So you know she was moving like across town into a house that was built in the fucking 70s or 80s or whatever because they're still holding together. Which is depressing when you think about it. So according to New South Wales Premier Gladys Berrigiculum, she was saying like I was reading a report where she was talking about this and saying, oh yeah, you know, it's concerning and we're trying to find out what's happening. Obviously, you know, everybody wants to make sure that we have a really robust

system of checks and processes to make sure that building quality is at the higher standard and we're all very confident in the system that we have. I was like, okay? You got multiple, multiple huge developments around your city just falling apart and sinking into the earth, but you're completely confident in the system that you have. That's cool. And then in the same breath they like announced that they were increasing their they were increasing their emergency fund for accommodation for all of the people who've had to be evacuated from these fucking buildings and become homeless.

They were increasing that fund from $1 million to $3 million. So it's great to know that we saved... Problem solved. Everybody's fine. You get to live in a hotel for a year or two. And of course, it's always good to know that as usual arriving government will gladly make things easier for developers and business people and make them have to do less stuff and pay less tax and then at the end of the day to spend taxpayer money on fixing the situation up

rather than say compelling the fucking people who built the tower to pay for the emergency funding. Not that I have, obviously not that I have a problem with like taxpayer money being used to help people. It's just that ideally wouldn't it be nice if the people who are actually responsible for causing the problem. Very bizarre for the government to pay for something like that. Yeah. I wonder if it's more that they're the the their. their. their. their. their, their, their, their, their, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, their, their, their, thi, thi, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thi, thi, thi, tho. tho. I too. We're, to. We're, to. We're, to.e. We're, to. I, to. I to. I'm, tho. I their to pay for something like that. Yeah. I wonder if it's more that they're just... Come on, you wouldn't want to spoil that nice relationship with all those developers, would you? Yeah, with all the property developers, that would be unpleasant. Yes, that's right, folks. I get a sinking feeling from Israel for Al-I get a sinking feeling.

I get a sinking feeling from the mascot towers in Sydney. But now I've got a whole other kind of sinking feeling which we're going to talk about in plane watch. Yes, I was really hoping there would be a theme song. Oh, so good. Playmatch. Do you know what else sank? What? Probably the record of Malaysia Airlines flight MH 370. Eventually. Yeah. Definitely. Definitely. If things sink in the Bermuda Triangle, yes. Sure. Did either of you read this fantastic article in the Atlantic about...

I read every damn word of it. Did you? It's extremely long. It is, it has disturbed me. It's one of those things like, I think reading about Chernobyl where, yeah. It's really hard to put your finger on what's wrong with it, but every word is horrible in a way that you can't define. It's very horrifying, it's very well written. I would advise anyone listening to read this entire very long article in the Atlantic about what happened to Malaysia's missing airplane by William. Lungue Blah. That's his name. He's got a German-looking last name, and I don't know how to say it. Good for him he wrote an incredible article. Now it's worth noting. So so M-

mhm, pardon me, M-370 was like quite quite notorious in Australia particularly. I don't know if it was as a big deal. I can't remember why. Well just because it had Australians on it. Right but we put a bunch of effort into finding it, right? We put money into it. We love to make things about us, I think. Certainly do. Which is why, when we started talking about this, I was confusing it with flight MH17, which was the other one where there was a flight that was going over or out of or whatever the Ukraine

and got shot down with an anti-aircraft missile, just a domestic flight, got shot down in a terrorist act. And there were some Australians on board that, so Australia was like, we're gonna solveto solve this. We're going to kill Russia. It led to the infamous former Prime Minister Tony Abbott claiming that he was going to quote unquote, shirtfront Vladimir Putin at the G20. This is what led to shirt front, incredible. That's what led to shirt front gate. Now, we're not really sports people here

Anyone want to explain what a shirt front is? I don't know I thought it was just putting words together like dip shit? According to the dictionary in Australian rules of football that's the problem. that's why none of us know what it means An act of charging into an opponent's chest typically so as to knock them to the ground. So Tony Abbott threatening physical violence against former KGB agent and judo black belt Vladimir Putin. Although I will say that while obviously Tony Abbott is a wild-eyed weirdo, remember when Russia Russian paramilitary forces in the Ukraine, sorry, yeah, well in Crimea and I guess in the Ukraine

shot down a passenger jet and we got mad about it for like a week. And then... That's the plane we're talking about. It was an accident. They told us that it was an accident. Absolutely. Russians just shot down a passenger jet and we're all like, hey, hey, hey, hey. How about don't do that? They were like, sorry, we hey. How about don't do that?

They were like, sorry, we thought it was something else. And we were just like, oh, okay. Like, well, next time, next time, give it a bit more thought. Yeah. So, um, so I thought it was that plane because that's the other plane that Australia got extremely mad about and invested a whole bunch of effort

into just kind of yelling about on the international stage or at least yelling a whole bunch about domestically until they got close enough to other people at diplomatic affairs and then just sort of hanging back and going, yeah, well, maybe later, I'm I'm gonna pull them to the side I'm gonna very sternly give him a real talking to oh later on later on there I give you a sanction and don't you forget it gonna sanction you so hard but instead we are talking about MH 370. We certainly are. So what's the deal with this article that you guys have read and I have not read? It's a lot to go through, but basically it's...

So the guy that wrote this is a pilot, and he has like a mountain of evidence for the reasons that certain... There's so many conspiracy theories about this. But he basically goes through every little piece of evidence from the plane and how the flight worked and all the information that they have and basically suggests that the pilot did this to commit suicide essentially, which is incredibly scary. What a way to do it also this happened on another flight after which was apparently like a copycat the guy that committed suicide on, with a different flight apparently this happened on another flight after, which was apparently like a copycat. The guy that committed suicide on, the different flight apparently had some like data about MH370, it was like looking it up a lot online.

Oh, jeez. Yeah, it's a lot, it's a lot to go through. But basically everything that people had thought about MH3 doesn't make sense. There's basically no believable way that people had thought about M-H-370 doesn't make sense. There's basically no believable way that this was to do with an error in the plane or a pilot error. The most upsetting thing is it basically suggests that the pilot killed everyone on board first. Yeah. That he depressurized the cabin. And then one engineer suggests that due to the way that the plane turned or something that he took the plane up to find the plane up. the plane up the plane up the plane up the plane up the plane up the plane up the plane up the plane up the plane up the plane up. the plane up. the plane up the plane up. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that. that, that. that. that that that that that that that th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. But, th. But, th. But, th. But, that. But, that. But, that. But, that. But, the that. But, the the that. But, that. But, that. But, that. But, that. But, that. But, that. But, that. Butized the cabin. And then one engineer suggests that due to the way that the plane turned or something, that he took the plane up to 40,000 feet after depressurizing the cabin, which would basically kill everyone instantly. And so apparently the pilot has a significantly longer amount of oxygen in the cockpit. So there's only about 15 minutes worth of oxygen in those masks that come down, and it's only really to be the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way to be to be the way the way to be to be to be the way to be the way to be to be the way the way to be the way the way to be the way the way the way the way the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the way the way the way the way the way the way the way to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be the plane.a to be to be the plane the plane taiea.a.a.a' toean.a' toean. the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane to be the plane the cockpit. So there's only about 15 minutes worth

of oxygen in those masks that come down and it's only really to be used it around 15,000 feet. And so basically the pilot, this guy thinks, killed everyone and then just cruised down into the ocean essentially and killed himself. It's not just like wild bullshit either. As far as they claim, so they went and investigated this guy's life and house and stuff, you know, as you do, they found on one specific run in the flight simulator

that took the, pretty much the same route as they suspect occurred with the flight simulator that took the pretty much the same route as they suspect occurred with the plane. So basically what they what they think happened was coming out of Malaysia and then transferring from responsibility from flight towers between Malaysia and Vietnam. They took, he took advantage of that confusion and basically just took a 180 and turned away and turned away and went so it to the plane to the the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane to to the plane to to to to to to to the plane the plane the plane to the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane. the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane the plane. the plane. the plane the plane. the plane. their their their their their their their plane. their their their their their their they their they they they they they they they they they they they they their they their of that confusion and basically just took a 180 and turned away and went sort of down south, southwest to you know, Indian Ocean beyond which you know, you kind of think that they crashed there and that's pretty much the exact route that he took him one extremely suspicious flight simulator run that was saved to his computer. Oh my goodness,

yeah. Which is extremely dispiriting, I would say, and they're like, well why didn't the co-pilot take over? But the co-pilot was under instruction. So he could have just said, hey can you just check something out at the the ass end of the plane? Yeah. Just right, the the the the the the th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, oh out at the ass end of the plane? Yeah. Just right down there. Close the door on your way, you don't want anyone getting getting back in here, do you? He was like a really experienced pilot. He'd been flying for a long time. So this poor co-pilot would have just been like, sure. He knows what he's too. That sounds logical. So you don't to to the to just right to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to the their to to to to to to to to to to to to to to just right down to just right down to just right down to just right down to just right to just right to just right to just right to just right the to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the. the. the the. the. the the. the. toooooooooooooooo. too. too. Just. Just right. I'll do that. That sounds, that sounds logical. So you don't want to jump to any conclusions, but the... If you go through the data, it's extremely convincing.

There's a lot of stuff about, you know, the plane took a really extreme turn immediately after they lost contact with it, which is not possible for the autopilot to do, because it's not how the plane is programmeded........ And, and the the the to do because it's not how the plane is programmed. So he definitely, he turns the autopilot off. And there's also no way that the plane could have been hijacked because there's no evidence of it. It's just a lot. And also, to what end?

There's no reason that it would have happened. He checked in basically when he hit 35,000 feet. Apparently he made a bunch of really strange transmissions that were just like, just omitting certain information and like he checked in when he reached an altitude which is not something that's normally done. And then the plane just lost contact. And it's a very disturbing image to think about just being murdered by your pilot, but at the same time, maybe they died peacefully, which is somewhat comforting. I guess. I mean, it's better than dying in the plane crash, I suppose. I guess, like I said, it's, uh, good that it doesn't happen more often,

but also, uh, I hope nobody that it doesn't happen more often, but also, I hope nobody gets any ideas. I hope there are any other parolts out there who are like, yeah, teach everybody a lesson. It's very upsetting. I would love to go through all this data, but I don't feel that I'm smart enough to do that. It's a lot. So, um, so yeah, was there anything in the piece that I'm smart enough to do that. It's a lot. So, um, so yeah, was there, was there anything in the piece that kind of alluded to, perhaps, any reasons that this dude might have done this? Certainly did. Apparently, the Malaysian government put out a report, like a very extensive report that said that there was, they had no concerns about the pilot. There was nothing in his background to suggest that he would do anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything anything th anything th anything. th anything. th anything. th anything. th anything. th anything. th anything. th anything. th anything, th anything, th th th th th th th the th th th th that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th. Was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was the the the the the that tho that that that that that that that that that thi that that said that there was, they had no concerns about the pilot, there was nothing in his background to suggest that he would do anything untoward.

And apparently everyone that's been spoken to in person that knows this guy does not corroborate that kind of story. He was apparently very depressed, had just gone through a divorce, had some kind of unrequited love crush type thing on someone else that worked for the airline and all this kind of stuff. So a lot of it was just the Malaysian government not cooperating or not wanting to look bad by the looks of it. And fair enough. I don't know how depression you have to be to kill an entire plane. It's a lot.

It's definitely mad depression in cell hours that we're talking around here. Yeah that's the most disturbing part of it is everything that says about his life story is basically like love life failings and divorce and that kind of thing. Oh dear. Hmm. It's upsetting. You should definitely read this one, Andrew. So, um, I think we can all agree to to to to to to to agree to agree to agree to agree to agree to agree to agree to agree to agree to agree to agree to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the to the to the to the to the the the the the the the to the to the to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. theat theat theat. theat. tr toooo. tea. tea. thea. that's theat theat theat. theat. the upsetting. You should definitely read this one Andrew. So I think we can all agree no more planes for anyone. I disagree. I definitely disagree on that count. Do you know that they're going to bring back the Boeing Max 8? As soon as they get them all fixed. As soon as they rebrand it. As soon as you download the DLC that doesn't...

Just gotta download the DLC that doesn't murder everybody. I don't ever want to fly on one of those. Who would, honestly? Hey, Lucy, have you seen, you like planes, I think is the theme that we've gotten over the last year. Have you have you seen the new Airbus Beluga Excel? I have it's stationed in Hawaii. There flies from here to Tokyo and I'm trying to figure out when the plane will be here so I can go and look at it. I'll wait no I'm thinking it's a sea turtle one. There's a sea turtle. There's a sea turtle airbus that goes from here to Tokyo, which looks like a sea turtle,

but I want to see the Baluga. I don't know where the Baluga is, but it's incredible. Everybody just stop, open up, Duck Duck Go, enter in the Airbus Beluga XL. And look at this fucked up. It's so beautiful. I love the big, I love the big. Oh yeah, I love the big brain dolphin plane. I just love that if they didn't paint a little face on it, it would look so fucking stupid. Yeah, good thing it looks really smart otherwise. It does. Why don't we make more planes animals?

Vacantly staring dolphin. How many people are you get on that bad boy? No, it's cargo. It's a not, it's a cargo. You can carry another airplane in it. Oh hell yeah. It's incredible. Airbus. Why would you fly anything else? Why would you ever fly a Boeing? You got MH-37 over here? You got the 7-3 max? Why not? Why not get in the big smiling dolphin plane? Why not? It's a belugger, actually. Sorry, bulugal whale? There are a type of whale? I think so. Sure. Why not? At least we can end plane watch on a happy note.

Thanks for letting me do some plane talk. Well, I'm sorry we had to just branch off a little bit there. You have some plane talk. It's a good article. We should make we should make more room for plane talk in the future. That's what I think we should. I think everyone who listens to the podcast would like to know more about commercial aircraft. Well I just want to throw something out there. I think that we should make it a recurring segment and call it, plainly speaking. Sensational. That's delightful. That's that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that that that that that we that we that we that we should that we that we should that we should that we should that we should that we should that we should that we should that we should that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that wea. I that we that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. I thi. I thi. I thi. I the. I the. I the. the. tho. I the. thal. That's delightful.

Oh, but for now we only got 10 minutes left, and you know what that means? We've got to jump to Lucy's other segments. That's right folks, it's paging Dr. Lucy. I'm 32 years old, right? That's right, folks. It's paging Dr. Lucy. I'm 32 years old, right? old track. I need to stop and nothing at that. Oh it's right folks it's a segment where the internet turns to the internet's therapist Dr. Lucy and asks her to solve their many relationship problems. I don't give any good advice on this I hope that's

clear. The advice is all by a gun and shoot your boyfriend. So of course we we like to just rag up the worst the worst of the worst Reddit relationship posts and get an opinion on them. It's pretty funny ones lately. Here's one for you, hold on. Let's see. My 36 year old female, my husband, 37 year old male, is offering to get a tattoo to prove you'll never cheat again. I think we've summed it out there, haven't we? This past year our relationship suffered for various reasons.

My husband decided to have a short-lived affair. However, when I found out about it, not through him, through the other woman's husband, months after my husband had ended it. During the affair, which went off for two months, he also lied to me on many occasions about his whereabouts. When I found out, I left th to live with my mother. That was several months ago, my plan, as he knows, is to file for divorce. He's begging me to give him another chance. He says it was the dumbest thing he's ever done and he knows he will never do it again. He says he cannot live without me. He has started going to therapy every week. He is the kind of person who really dislikes tasks to to to to to to to to the to the to to the he he he he he he he he he the kind he he he the kind he he the kind he he he. He. He is the kind th the kind th th th th th thi. He is the kind thi. He is kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind the kind the kind, he is kind, he is the kind, he is the kind the kind the kind the kind of the kind of the kind of the kind of he, he is he, he is he, he is he, he is th the kind of th th th th th th t. He is t. He is t. He is t. He is t. He is kind of t. He is kind of t. He is kind of person, he is kind of person who is kind of person who is kind of person who is kind of person who is kind of tip, he is kind of t offered to get a visible tattoo, not sure of what,

that will serve as a reminder to me that he has promised to never do anything like this again. Oh my God, I'm rolling my eyes so hard that it's painful. He says what he did left a permanent mark on my heart, and this will leave a permanent mark on his body. Please tell me what to this will leave a permanent mark on his body. Please tell me what to think because at this point, I really can't make any sense of what's become of my life. The solution to this is so easy.

You want a hundred percent let him get that tattoo. And then refuse to move back in with him. And then immediately dump him. Immediately cut ties. It's perfect. That's such an easy solution. I think the important question is what should the tattoo be? It's got to be like your name or something. Yeah I want I want my name like massive 72 point comic sands across your chest. And then underneath it, Sonic sucking off SORA from Kingdom Hearts. If you get that, I'll know that you're serious. I'll know that you love me.

I'm going to source source this drawing from Deviant. Your tattoo has to be sourced from Deviant. What a requirement. What a requirement. Hey, speaking of terrible tattoos, folks, we're not too far off from our Patreon goal. At which point the cast will go and get tattoos of famous notorious perverted video game character. Why Luigi? Who is now in a Smash Brothers edition, I've heard. There you go.

If you would like to contribute to that goal of helping to ruin our bodies, hit on over to Patreon. to Vista. I'll even source one from DVNR. Oh, big claim. Yaks. Here's the perfect Reddit relationships post. My boyfriend refuses to tell me his new Reddit and I'm upset. Backstory. A few months back-toi.

A few months back I discovered he was talking shit about my family on here, being Reddit. And talking about about my family on here, being Reddit, and talking about how he was going to leave me for a girl he wanted for a long time because we were fighting a little around that time and literally said that if she was down for it, he was going to leave me for her. When I asked why he deleted his previous Reddit, the account that he posted all this stuff to, I got the response, why does it matter? I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I the response, I the response, I to, I the response, I to, I to to to the response, I to to to the response, I to, I the response, I to, I the response, I to, I got the response, I got, I got told, I told, I got, I got, to, to, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, the response, the response, the response, the response, the response, the response, the response, the response, the response, the response, the response, the response, told. told. told me, told me, told me, told me, to me, told me, told me, told me, told me, told me, told me, told me, told me, to I asked what his new one was, to which I received the response again, why does it matter? I explained that I cared because of what happened previously. It's not like I'm just nosy. That's the only reason I care what it is. He

will not tell me some important things about our relationship, but will rather take to Reddit to complain about me or give the internet the knowledge that he wanted to leave me. But apparently it doesn't matter if I know. Anyway, he is acting like I'm overreacting and just keeps repeating the comment. I feel like it's sneaky after what's happened. I personally believe if there scope out his account 24-7. Honestly, I don't even care to look at it. It's literally just the principle. I feel like if you're not hiding anything, you would have no issue just telling me.

Oh my god. I feel like Dr. Manhattan listening to these. I'm tired of earth and these people etc. And of course she has followed this up with a post to say oh so I was looking on his phone and I found his new Reddit and his Snapchat where he's trying to fuck 16 year old girls and his kick account that he made and all of this stuff. Hey, here's a pretty great- Isn't it great to be married, guys? It's, so we're turning into a very married podcast.

I certainly are. Oh, it gets to be so simple. It certainly does. It certainly does. I love knowing that I will never have to deal with any of this shit. I love, I love not having to get a tattoo on my to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to tatoo tatoo tatoo tatoo the their their that that that that that that that that that their their, tho any of this shit. I love not having to get a tattoo on my forehead that says, if you see me, do not fuck me. Here's what, I can't decide if this one's dark or not, or if it's just really funny.

20-year-old female. My brother, 15-year-old male, is looking up very disturbing content on our shared computer. I don't know if I should bring it up to him. And I was like, oh, this mothfuck has been watching like ISIS beheadings and gore videos and shit. But then I started reading it. I was on our shared computer at home while he was at a friend's house and I went on the internet and I saw some very weird and disturbing stuff. He was looking at fart porn.

It was guys and girls farting and stuff and he was on YouTube looking at fart videos. I was disturbed. He must have forgot to delete the history, so I deleted it. I love him but I can't really look at him the same right now. What is he doing looking at freaky content like this? I can think of one thing. He's probably jack and awful he's looking his fun. He's certainly probably is. Oh god damn that was very funny to me as a thiolk I don't know what it says about me that when it got to that part I was like, oh thank God,

I thought it was something terrible. I think that's terrible. I'd rather catch someone watching the ice as be hadings to be. I would far rather catch somebody like with whatever fucking harmless fetish. That's a pretty weird fetish. I'm shaming it right now. Like, absolutely. you know, you know that that that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I, I, I, I, I, I that, I, I that, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I thi, I th, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I th, I th, I th, I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I, I, I, I. I, I, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I thi, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I think, think, think, thin, th think th think, I thi, I fetish. I'm gonna shame it. I'm shaming it right now. Like absolutely you know you know that I'm down for kink shaming right? But like you know if if somebody... Unless it affects me personally.

Yes, yes. But yeah like like I don't know if if my younger brother, my hypothetical young brother, if they were like obsessed with constantly watching videos of like people getting hurt really badly or like dash cam things of people getting run over or videos of cops blown people's brains out and shit like that, I would be like, I'm worried that you're dead inside, but like fucking fart videos. And what if you fart and you're like, damn, is he jacking off right now? Yeah, that's right. You like that? You like that? But yeah, like, and there's definitely, like, there's definitely porno that you could find someone looking at where you would be like, ooh, if your very young sibling was into like extremely violent porno or like super violent humiliation type stuff, you would be like, you should probably

stop looking to this before you fuck yourself up forever. Just let him be violently farted on, you know? Let him, let him smell a lady's farts, whatever. And also, don't worry, by this point it's, he's imprinted now and there's nothing you can do. He will be horny for farts for the rest of his life. Yeah, there's no way you can go back from it at this point. There's no back in that car out of the driveway, you know? This motho fucker just likes farts now. Bring it up if you want, but I don't know what he's going to tell you. Hey, you horny for farts. I know you guys horny for farts.

There's two things. Just at a family dinner. Hey, is anyone else? Anyone else get horny for farts? Let's go around the table. Start with you, Jimmy. Oh my goodness. Um, all right, I've got one more here to wrap it up, and then we're out of here.

This is one of those ones where I was like. I feel like I'm losing my mind. 25-year-old male. My girlfriend, 24-year-old female of two years, doesn't want to get rid of a bedbug infestation. Excuse me? We just signed a lease last month to start living together in a new place. Well, we had a housewarming party that got a bit bigger than we expected,

with some friends of friends we didn't know showing up, more than 20 people in total. We suspect the bed bugs came from someone at the party. We've had th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th the th th th th th th th th then the the their the thease thease thease We've had them for more than a week now. My girlfriend refuses to cooperate in getting rid of them because she doesn't believe it's okay to do so. What? I'd always known that she was a very compassionate person and truly views all living things as precious and important. She volunteers for a few humanitarian causes like animal shelters and loves nature. But I didn't know it went this far that eradicating pests like this is wrong. This is very extreme to me.

This cannot be true and if it is, it's very upsetting. You are not wrong, pal, it is very extreme. Meanwhile we are getting eaten alive every night and they just keep multiplying. I'm out of patience. I've asked her many times how she can stand living with this, and she just says it's quote, annoying, but she couldn't bring herself to intentionally kill anything. Today I decided I was done with this bullshit. I called an exterminator and scheduled an appointment for tomorrow. When I told her, she flipped.

I said I didn't care what she thought. She could help me pack up everything to prepare or not, but it was happening. Then once I went to work, she cancelled the appointment behind my back. Oh my God. She texted me to tell me. She said she doesn't want to fight with me that we should be able to live in harmony with each other and with other creatures. She also said she's really stressed out due to our disagreement about it, but I'm stressed out by having the bed bugs. Now I'm about to go home to our infested apartment and confront her. Please help. I feel like my life has turned into some realm of insanity. How do I make her understand that the pest control needs to happen? Too long didn't read, my girlfriend sabotage my efforts to exterminate bed bugs in our home because she believes it's wrong to kill them. I don't know how to make her stop stop that that that the the the the the the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest control the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pest the pests the pests the pests the pests their to to to to to their to to to to to to their to their to to to to their to tipe to their control need to to their control to their to the pest control the pest control the pest control their girlfriend sabotaged my efforts to exterminate bed bugs in her home because she believes it's wrong to kill them.

I don't know how to make her stop or compromise. This is certainly just the tip of the iceberg. You gotta get out of there. Oh, very much. You've got to cut this one off right now. I'm going to exterminate that relationship. Oh, damn. Damn. One big bed bugs. Horrible creatures. That's right. It's your girlfriend. Oh, truly hard. Don't kill your girlfriend. Don't kill her. Just exterminate her emotional attachment to you.

Kill your girlfriend's emotions. Just, yeah, just, yeah, I don't know if that's great relationship advice. Exterminate your girlfriend emotionally. Sure it is. Oh my goodness. People of the world. And we've solved everyone's problems. Yes, leave your partner immediately.

Mm-hmm. Also, if you're depressed, don't kill anyone on the plane that you're flying. Yes. Don't pilot a plane. I can't believe we have to say this specifically. But do not do that. Please don't pilot a plane if you're feeling super depressed. Just don't do it. It's pretty easy to not pile the plane. I am constantly not piled in planes. Same. And I'm very brave for doing so. Mm-hmm. Or also just, just if you're depressed,

you don't have to kill anyone. It's true. And on that note, folks, I think we will leave it there. Thank you very much for your time. Thank you for joining us.
