Music You did that to me once and you got the wrong door.
It's a really fun thing to do dear friends.
A set in the picture of their front door from your Google voice number.
Yeah, I know. I know.
A picture of the door next door to me from an unknown number and I immediately replied
with wrong door ban.
Well, let's officially start the show.
It's Monday, December 18th.
And on last Monday's episode, to Universal acclaim. I was joined by Hesse and
Due to overwhelming popular demand she's back again and brought her co-host from Seeking derangements Ben. We're welcome back to the show
Seeking derangements. Thank you for having us. Sorry that Jacques couldn't make it but
Jacques is currently in in the airport on a flight
I'm gonna make a joke is currently in the airport on a flight. So DIA.
Well, that's a good thing you clarified on a flight
because I could easily just see Jacques going to the airport
and doing God knows what.
Just going there.
Totally unrelated to air travel.
I'm sort of weird business deal.
Some guy's like, who knows?
I'm just glad he's using it for conventional means.
Yeah. Doing doing doing a deal for Rue at one of those shady airport hotels like
this beginning of King of New York or something. Yeah. He would be
would be Venmo requesting TSA because one of his sandwiches got ruined in the um Oh the x-ray hit my baloney y'all
that's not good
well uh Ben has uh we had to get you on today because
basically i'm going through the news and
yeah it just seems like there's a lot of really gay
gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay
there's a lot of gay shit going down in gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay And I was wondering, can everyone see this now? Yeah, I'll be going to hear that. Ben, have you heard this?
I have not heard this.
Mr. Mayor, we've come to the end of what
was a very eventful 2023, right?
So when you look at the totality of the year,
if you had to describe it and it's up to do in one word,
what would that word be and tell me why?
New York, this is a place where every day you wake up,
you could experience everything from a plane crashing
into out trade center to a person who's celebrating a new business that's open.
This is a very, very complicated city and that's why it's going to be city on the floor.
The 40th thing is 9.11 comes to mind. 9.11 comes to mind immediately, but it takes him a while to think of something good that could happen to New York.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's a thing that could happen, the good thing that could happen to New York isn't even specific to New York.
It's like you could do that anywhere.
It's like a sweet green could open near you.
You could be absolutely fun.
Yeah.
Like people open businesses in like Wisconsin.
Like, I love like the follow up of it's a complicated city.
It's like, you know, either of those two things could happen
and there's no real in between.
And I a rhyme or reason for why one or the other happens.
The underrated brilliance of that answer is that the question was, how was your year?
I also believe he said, like, what's one word that sums up New York?
And he just says New York.
And then he starts talking about 9-11.
But yeah, to contrast, things that happened in New New York as you said, Felix 9-11,
that's one thing that did happen in New York.
And then it's like, yeah, you said to bring it back around.
There's probably someone out there in New York City right now celebrating, opening a new
business.
And it's, you know, it's that, it's that contrast that makes the big apple what it is, you know,
it's like any moment
commercial plane could fly into a skyscraper, but at the same time, as you said, a sweet green could be opening, you know, God doesn't destroy the Twin Towers without opening a few doors.
Yeah, that's the difference between New York and other cities. Like, there are, you know, usually
9-11 cities where all that happens is 9-11 and then there are business cities where
all that happens is people starting new businesses.
New York really is the only city that has both.
Yeah, you can't get that kind of dynamism anywhere else and people say like, oh, it's impossible
to get a good 9-11 in Los Angeles.
It's impossible to get a good 9-11 in Los Angeles. You know? It's impossible to get good.
You know, especially in England, like if you try to get a 9-11 over there, you'll just
end up with like an Ariana Grande concert.
Yeah, exactly.
Or subway, kind of bombing or something.
You just can't get a good 9-11.
And you know, the city of Boston, after the marathon bombing, not a single new business
is open in Boston ever since that.
So they're still struggling to open it.
You know, I get that entrepreneurial spirit back, but it's actually kind of like the movie
annihilation, but instead of like a big wormhole kind of swallowing up the city, every building
is being occupied by a Dunkin' Donuts.
And they're trying to figure out how to stop that.
No one knows how.
They keep sending people in, like,
tethered to with like a tether tied to their belt,
and they don't return.
Because they just get hired by Dunkin' Donuts,
and the work's actually going to cost
them 10 million Dunkin' Donuts.
So like to do, like, further try to decode
like whatever the fuck he was talking about
Do you think that like I don't know bit like it seems like
Uncharacteristically dower for Eric out. Yeah, the subtext of it seems to be like hey, you know
They're like good days and bad is that like his
His most normal response to like possibly being arrested soon?
He's gonna be arrested.
Like, isn't it?
Yeah, well, you're probably.
Yeah, probably.
Yeah, probably.
Basically, a campaign financeer is associated with his mayoral campaign where taking money from
crooked Turkish building conference.
Oh, yes, I remember that.
I think that I'm the connected to you, Erdogan.
The thing that, like, every fucking municipal politician
in America goes to jail for, like, doing campaign finance
stuff wrong, and like, they always, no one ever,
like, gets away with it.
But every single one of these guys is always
going to be like, no, I'm'm gonna be the guy who gets $7 million
but seriously deposited from a Turkish bank account
into mine and no one will notice.
Yeah, he literally, he spent the campaign money
on the shady Turkish campaign money
on a like Jackie Chan rush hour shirt.
That he's hilarious.
Right. Right. on a like Jackie Chan rush hour shirt. That is hilarious.
No, but Felix, I think you're right to clue in on the essentially melancholy nature of
this like New Year's message from Eric Adams, because usually when he's being asked about
New York City, he's like at like, I don't know, the little Serbia saying something like,
you know, New York is the belgrade of America.
Like, you love it.
There's no place like it.
And then you'd be like,
now you're like, you know, mayor,
like you're here at the, I don't know,
like a New York City Seek Association ribbon cutting ceremony.
And he's just like, New York, nothing like it.
The triangle shirt waist fire,
hundreds of girls were in the town.
But now we're here today at this ribbon cutting
He's a
I think he's depressed and he just can't I don't know this is just like the most normal possible way he has of
Communicating that yeah, I saw like last weekend, every like New York based reporter was vaguely alluding to some
rumor that I think was that Eric Adams had been arrested.
And obviously that has not happened yet, but it just, it feels like, you know, clock's
kicking. Yeah. No one does
the weird shit him it is team did and doesn't have to at least resign in shame.
You know, as long as we're talking about a former New York City mayor, I mean, it's got,
they've hit a bad run of it recently. And I just like to note that Rudy Giuliani was just
hit was something like $180 million in damages against two Georgia poll workers he's slendered and in the closing
arguments his defense counsel said when you're deciding this verdict please remember him as
the man who was mayor during 9-11 and yeah I was going to say sampling carcass you see before
you know and you know what Michael Bloomberg like he's still 5'3", that's nothing's changed
in there.
I will say, Bill de Blas got a new bow on his arm.
Did you see this?
Bill de Blasio.
Apparently he's with a married woman whose wife, whose husband found out that she was
with him from the New York Post.
Because they were spotted canutally.
God, I want that's the last like cool.
That's the last like 30s, 40s like movie journalist type job is like working for the New
York Post where you could be like, hey, DiBlasio, who's this little number you got here,
like taking pictures of him.
Sort of a his gal tube state situation. Blasio who's this who's this little number you got here like taking pictures of him
Sort of a his gal tube state situation. Yeah, like Danny DeVito and LA confidential. I was I was so bring up movies. I have to stop
All right, well, that's the that's the that's the that's the New York City. That's the New York City news But but let's move on to you know like the our guest specialty of the day, gay news, it's gay,
gay, gay, what's going on in the world of the US, the North America, and the, okay, and
in the world of gay news, there is no better gay news this week than the Senate ass fucking
conundrum or not conundrum, then I would say, I'll call it a little bit.
Let's watch the language, well, let's not call it.
Let's call it a little bit. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, oh, let's watch the language. Well, let's not call it. Let's call it. Let's not call it. Let's man our man love in my book.
Okay.
We were very hard to reclaim that word of conundrum.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
I should say a former staffer for Ben Cardin, a video with him engaging in intercourse with
a male lover was, it was posted on some sort of slack or sort of discord group for gay people
into a Washington DC and the daily callers.
Large penis support group.
It's a it's a it's a gay forum where say for example, there's a really hot guy on Instagram
and you want to find his leaked cockpicks.
You just go to large ptis support group and you can find leaked news leaked cockpicks. You just go to large PETA support group
and you can find leaked nudes of many, many people on there.
So I think that's where it came from.
You know, this experience.
Yeah, of course.
And I think that it was from the bottom.
It was posted to a close friend story of his, I believe.
The picture of him with his ass up on the table.
I didn't even know you could post stuff like that to Instagram.
Like we've got the seeking deranged accounts.
You can't.
You can't.
So many times.
You definitely can't.
I just, you may have been the classic gay bottom move
of putting a little peach emoji over his whole.
But yeah. It's such a big thing, all of the things that they do, I've seen on the so-called,
all the clips I've seen on the so-called free speech daily caller have been heavily
redacted. They've been heavily censored, but I'm just going to read here from Time Magazine,
the headline, what to know about Washington's scandal over sex in a Senate hearing room?
Capital Hill was rocked over the weekend by circulation of an explicit video of two men apparently having sex in a congressional hearing room
The eight-second pornographic clip first for the posted Friday evening by a right-wing media site the daily caller was reportedly leaked from a private group for gay men in politics
The report which did not name them participants and blurred a face that appeared in the video,
claimed it was a congressional staffer
in the sex tape identified the setting
as room 216 in the heart senate office building.
It would be so funny to be like one of the like old,
really old senators and just be like,
oh man, that's where I sit.
Goddamn.
Okay, okay.
There is actually reporting about who sits.
No, no, no, no.
Who is it?
Who is it?
Responding to reports that the lead act took place where Senator Amy Klobuchar says
in the hearing room in question.
For real?
She hates me.
She hates me.
And even more now.
Oh my God.
That's all funny.
It was where she hates gay men.
Fucking crazy.
Then bullied her so much.
Yes, me.
Definitely doesn't.
Yeah.
I will take this time to say that as a, you know, a disgraced gay political myself,
I do send my absolute support to this bottom.
He did nothing wrong.
Yeah. And honestly, you're probably better off not working politics. absolute support to this bottom. He did nothing wrong.
And honestly, you're probably better off
not working in politics.
This guy clearly needs to get over the fan,
start a podcast, something else.
And maybe not a podcast.
Let me see, don't you dare start a podcast actually.
This is only X Arthur.
But I think once you start taking videos of yourself
fucking on your bus's desk, like,
that's basically a resignation letter.
Like you know that video's good.
Yeah.
He he posted some, I think he posted on Facebook
and said something like, I'm being attacked simply
for who I choose to love.
So I'm like,
no, I'm telling you more, where are you choose to love them?
You know what?
I gotta say, I gotta say, I have nothing respect for this young man. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I at that end. You're not gonna do anything good, but if you imagine politics,
she's gonna be like for you.
It's not to change diapers.
Eventually.
Yeah, I like the idea.
I like the idea of them doing this,
like, wall John Fetterman is there.
I was just like seeing how long it takes her to notice.
He's like, what?
He's like, wait, has that always been there?
It smells like the bathroom in here.
What the heck?
The headlines for this kept cracking me the fuck up because, you know, the daily caller
and all these right wing outlets that are really running with it, they kept, because
they were trying to sensationalize this as much as possible.
They kept reiterating that it was gay sex with gay men happening, but I'm like, it's
kind of totally redundant when the accompanying picture to the audio or to the article is
literally butt fucking.
Like you, it's already so scandalous that you don't need to be like, yeah, they were gay,
be gay.
It's so funny.
It's to warn their older, older Republic.
Yeah, sure.
Good warning.
No, so that they don't, before they put on their reading glasses
to read the headlines, so they don't look at the blurry picture
and be like, oh, good for him.
I would like to tap that as well.
Yeah.
I can't think about going back and talking to Harvey Milk, just like telling
Harvey Milk, like, girl, you have no clue what you're fighting for right now.
You don't think gay make it be a politics?
We're fucking in legislated buildings in 2023.
The thing I like about them trying to make this a scandal is like, okay, without your I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just But this is literally just two gay guys have exacts. Yeah, they're just posting it everywhere. They're like look
Look how gross it is and it's like okay, like what what am I supposed to take from this?
Well, I gotta it's not just Amy Klobuchar seat here. I like the time includes these details
It sits in her seat sits in a he is sits in a, it's not just the seat,
but the hearing room in question.
A room that is also hosted the 9-11 Commission hearings
20 years ago.
Former FBI director James Comey is historic testimony
on Donald Trump in 2017, as well as several confirmation
hearings for Supreme Court nominees, including Sonia Sotomayor,
Brett Kavanaugh, Rep. Representative Mike Collins, Republican of Georgia, posted a photo of
cleaning wipes at a grocery store with the caption, Christmas shopping for Senator Klobuchar.
I mean, like, if you're a Republican politician and are in the right wing media, I mean, like,
uh, how many variations of the joke I've seen over the last 24 hours of the,
they're only doing to each other what they're doing us every day
I like going back to John Fetterman being in the room
I like to picture him like being in the room and seeing it
But also like Philip K Dick when he saw like ancient Rome superimposed over like I hit with a pink
Pink light. Yeah, he just sees the 9-11 commission
hearings like superimposed over the two gay guys. Yeah. Well, actually, speaking of Rome,
this guy, you know, they may just be maybe trying to return us to the fundamental democratic
principles of getting bot fucked where you sent it right laws. Yeah
Yeah, the Roman Senate
Classic Roman move all of our founding fathers are had to like a fetish for the the Roman Roman system of government I think they should take it one step further
I mean just there's one last little thing here one less or a person they saw the quote from in this time article
Madison Caught Th, a former congressional staff
who turned to one term congressman who alleged in 2022.
Dave sounds like a gay porn site.
Before he lost his reelection bid,
that Washington is rife with sexual perversion.
He posted on Twitter, I told you.
Do you post what's it?
What's it he's done?
I was doing it.
He was the one doing it. He was the one doing it.
I told you everyone, I told you what I was up to.
That was like when they like really needed to get rid of them and they called up like Ed
Meas or like James Baker, one of like the true hitters.
Like one of the Reagan, Iran Contra, like real shooters who can really get dirt on someone.
They pulled up a video of him raping his cousin in the mouth. Yeah. Yeah.
And it's like, if I was him, I would say it's far away from this
bottom.
I really don't want to remind people.
People had already forgotten that he'd done that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm running Ben and I said, I'm running this if you, if you, I saw, there was another very intriguing,
sort of layer to this story where I saw someone share it.
It was a social, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, not by the, you know, anal penetration, but by the German penetration of our government buildings.
Yes. I, well, I would say that like it's probably, yeah, I don't know. What do you think, Ben?
I think it adds up. I mean, German people are renownly sexual freaks and once one of them is gay, you know,
it's doubly so, it makes sense that they're trying to fucking us out and to send it, you know.
Yeah, we should, we need to send an agent into their halls of power and find
a little twink that we can.
Yeah, yeah, we got to find a way.
You can send me over there.
I'll do my best, guys.
Yes.
Oh my god.
We got a proud proud around the Senate buildings a little bit.
Yeah, parachute you in like the first airport and just like Operation Market Garden.
Yeah, why the German guy was involved like it just yeah it seems like in Germany they probably have
a special day where you can do this in the Boots dog. There's a special, there's a special Shyser room in the German parliament.
Yeah.
If the Bouncer lets you into the parliament building, first of all, then it's really hard
to get it.
He's very strict.
You need to know every legislator.
If you don't know them by name, they're like, this norm is not getting it.
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
He's not wearing the cool hat.
He's not.
I mean, I guarantee you, I would have just robs.
I guarantee you that having sex in a German government building is like going to a German,
like a club, you know, like the idea that you're going to have your phone with this camera
out. I mean, you'd be bouncing the door and meeting. Yeah. Yeah. You're not going to get
to the pooping rooms, sir. Yeah, the other gay guys fucking their twanks in the same government room are going to
like roll their eyes so hard at you. Yeah, follow your phone to post a story.
I did see, though, that some Republican, okay, yeah,
we're separately representative, next Miller, Republican of Ohio, told the Daily Caller that the
man in question had
Acosta him earlier in the week shouting free Palestine while Miller was being interviewed by NBC
The the son of safer in question is denied doing that
But I just like that they're trying to you know, you just sort of bring everything in here
You know, you know, it's like you said from the river to the sea while you
Well, he was doing case. I would never say that.
I just thought so many right wing guys on Twitter posting,
like, this is the worst thing I've ever seen.
I'm like, well, you're, why are you watching that?
Like you're watching you guys fuck right now.
Like you chose, what did you think this video
was going to be, you know?
Yeah.
I was disgusted the you think this video was going to be? You know? Yeah. I was disgusted.
I was like, I see the whole,
for the whole five minutes of watching this video.
Brightness, I'm all six hours.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, I don't know.
Is it, is, I think I like the ones that are trying to pretend
like they're not disgusted by this exact,
they're disgusted about like the desecration
of our beautiful Senate building and what it represents.
It was just, oh, in that same room, they just, I don't know, rushed through authorization to sell another
50,000 rounds of white phosphorus shells to Israel. I don't know.
I wouldn't want anything disgracing that August.
Deliberative body.
I did see some of these guys like drawn equivalency between this and January 6th.
I wish January 6th.
I said, you're not cool.
Are you kidding me?
Yeah.
It's so funny.
It's so funny to think about like this is the Democrats version of that.
There's no, there's no, there's no, there's no, there's no plan to like get the speaker
to overturn the, the votes or de-certify. It's just we're gonna go in there and just give
the craziest back shots ever. Two feet from where Amy Klobuchar eats a cozy salad.
So, what?
You know what she feels? I did see someone say, I did see someone say, this is what they do in the same place.
They shot Ashley Babin.
I mean, I guess they were like, I kind of expecting these guys
to get shot, where they were like,
like Roger, they're engaging population population, take the shot, or.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Has Amy made a statement?
I really would love to hear what Amy's gonna say about this
because she does hate gay guys and I know this
because I think her origin here is because she,
her prom date came out as gay after they went to prom together.
She gave an interview once and she was like, yeah, my prom date was gay.
Didn't know it at the time.
Found out shortly after.
Usually the second he saw me naked, he said, I think I'm gay.
Yeah.
That's like, I mean, talk about, talk about like indoctrinating the youth
at the homosexuality, sending them on a date
with Amy Klobuchar.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Maybe there probably just have a point.
What could we do to get you to go away?
Stop inviting me to your gigs.
So no dancing with the stars?
No.
No root Paul's drag race.
I have not that invite yet.
I'd love to go read a b***.
The lesson is to stop inviting you places.
But you can't.
Because people want the content.
To move on from this, from one gay icon to another,
I guess like the other big story is I guess like just
the the sort of post-Congress career of George Santos and Benio Sandox. Because I'm just wondering
like we sort of skipped out on assessing his sort of downfall and now kind of I don't know
Phoenix like rebirth as a cameo celebrity but I mean what do you make of Conrad George and other state of things for him right now?
Obviously, he's the gay icon. I mean
He's who we need we need him as president or at least as like some kind of
You know Andy Cohen's that he could replace Andy Cohen. Maybe he could host jeopardy
There's so many like the world is his oyster now. We've been trying to get him on, but he
is probably not going to have a lot of work.
Yeah, it's probably not going to have really solid.
I love him. I think he's so cute. He looks like, he looks like Latina baby Grinch to me.
I love that one. He was like a baby Grinch.
He has baby Grinch, right? And I, my favorite thing about his downward spiral
was that he kept making these appearances
where it was getting worse and worse
and like he was definitely going to be
kicked out of the Congress or whatever.
But as it was getting worse,
he just started pounding on the makeup.
Like it was just so much makeup at like his last day.
He looked like he had like funeral makeup on.
Like just fully like draw a different color,
powdered to hell.
But I think he'll make a nice little career for himself
and sure off came you know.
He said he was making like a hundred thousand dollars
or something like more than he did.
He's such a liar.
He's such a jerk.
I actually know he's never told a lie about anything.
He's never told lie about anything.
I forgot. Yeah. I mean like I think there's been some like sort of revision He's never told a lie about anything. He's never told a lie about anything.
I forgot.
I mean, I think there's been some revision on the ironic celebration of George Santos.
Because I saw some people trying to be like, oh, he stole all this money from people.
And now he's going on talk shows and making quite a go of it for himself.
But he only stole money from people willing to give it to a publicist.
Yeah, I'm sorry, if you're just giving money to our
entire publicans. So I don't give a shit. Yeah. Yeah. Just like,
who cares? The thing that like the first scandal he had, the thing
that was like supposed to make everyone hate him was that he like
stole some like veterans service dog. it's like okay can we just admit as a
country that we're kind of sick of those things like they don't we know like
you don't need to take your dog to a restaurant like come on how bad is your
anxiety yeah how and why does a German Shepherd fix it and honestly like I
think I think it might make your anxiety worse if you don't
If you have to take a dog into a restaurant everywhere with you and if someone says no to you you
Freak out, you know, I feel like I don't know. I'm no expert
But I think George Santos does need the dog for his anxiety. I think he was right to take it from that veteran
I don't think that veteran ever actually saw combat. I think he was right to take it from that veteran. I don't think that veteran ever actually saw combat.
I think he was a gold breaker.
I think he completely was faking it.
And I think George did two tours in Iraq,
if I'm remembering.
Yeah, I was so.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I believe he's a medal of honor recipient.
Yes, I think he has two actually.
I think he's the only person.
He has a couple of hearts. Yes, he's the only person. He has a couple of hearts.
He has a lot of hearts.
And the Medal of Honor.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Someone photoshopped Obama pinning the Medal of Honor
on the first hit.
And so funny in his pivoted media career now.
I've seen a lot of people being like, do not platform.
He's a right wing maniac. I'm seen a lot of people being like, do not platform. He's a right-wing
maniac. I'm like, he was an elected official. Like he was a platformer, but he was elected.
The, um, my favorite cameo, um, maybe I'll send this to Chris and maybe he can, I'm sorry if I'm
making work for Chris, but if I can find it, into Chris, maybe you can include this. But there is a video of a cameo that he did
where he was basically like,
hey, we just wanna say that we're like
so proud of you for coming out as a furry.
And it was definitely like a fake cameo that was like,
to like see if you would do it.
And he was like, we love your new persona.
We love it.
That it's a half fox, half wolf, like it's with really,
yeah, it was incredible.
He's so cute.
I just, he's just too cute to hate on, you know?
I want to see more.
Yeah.
I guess it was like a little astonished
that like the Republicans in the New York State Republican Party
just cashed him out like that quickly.
I mean, I guess it's like him and Madison caught on it.
Like they're the ones who just get universally kicked out.
Bob Menendez is still in the fucking sun.
Yeah.
You know, like, oh yeah, I don't know.
I was like, yeah.
Hey, he, George Santos here.
I'm so proud of you for coming out as a furry and I just wanted to tell you that your
friends and family all accept you.
And they're all excited about your first sonar, which is awesome to be a beaver and a platter
pus.
So let me tell you, they all love you, beaver pus.
All right, moving on from George Santos.
I guess like this doesn't directly have to do with gay news,
but it has to do with people who make news for hating gay people.
And I'm referring, I'm referring, of course,
to the moms for liberty who, as a group,
have been suffering some setbacks recently,
not the least of which is losing every election they run in,
but now they have a sex scandal to deal with.
But, here, from the New York Times, Florida's sex scandal shakes moms for liberty as groups
influence wanes.
Moms for liberty, a national right-wing advocacy group, was born in Florida as a response
to COVID-19 school closures and mask mandates, but it quickly became just as well-known for
pushing policies branded as anti-OGBTQ by opponents.
So when one of its founders, Bridget Ziegler,
recently told the police that she and her husband,
who is under criminal investigation for sexual assault,
at a consensual sexual encounter with another woman,
the perceived disconnect between her public status
and private life fueled intense pressure
for her to resign from the Sarasota County School Board.
Yet, as moms for liberty reels from the scandals surrounding the zealers, the group's power
seems to be fading.
Candidates endorsed by the group lost the series of key school board races in 2023.
The losses have prompted questions about the future of the education issues as an animating
force in Republican politics.
So apparently the zealers were involved in sort of a thruple situation for quite some time.
And I guess my question here is like,
when I think about the mom's celebrity or when I think about people
banning books that deal with sex or gay themes or things like that
or trying to ban sex education, I always imagine them is like
shriveled sexless crones.
So I guess it's somewhat jarring to find out that they're literally all
freaks who are doing like three ways all the time
What's going on here?
Yeah, no, it's it's beautiful. Well, you know, it's just like you got I mean like this
This is of us of a suit with you know like Lauren Bober the Beatles use musical
But like you know Marjorie Taylor green and her various crossfit
the Beatles' musical, but like, you know, Marjorie Taylor Greene and her various
crossfit dalliances.
I mean, the thing is they hate gay people
because like a lot of gay people
are like annoyingly vanilla.
And I feel like a lot, like if they see a gay person
who's more sexually normal than them,
like perceived from the outside world,
they kind of get a little like mad.
Like no, like I'm, you know, that's way more deviant. outside worlds, they kind of get a little like mad.
No, like I'm, you know, that's way more deviant.
Like this book about how, you know,
about a teen who comes out as non-binary is way worse
than, you know, me and my husband's like
meeting up with her fuck buddy and, you know,
having a good time or night on the town.
Were they banning books about swinging and swapping
and things like that?
Yeah, maybe she should actually write a book
about how to safely swing.
I think that would be maybe like a common way.
Obviously, I don't know if we should take her advice
because her husband is currently facing
a sexual assault charge.
Oh, okay.
I think that is involved in the in the in the threesome relationship. What on earth
was the situation? What was the scenario here? Was it like that? The meetings get steamy. They're
talking about all those non-binary kids, you know, you get whipped up. You got to take that. Yeah. The
I bet this one was having a lesbian affair and her husband
found out and she was like, no, no, no, no, I, you know, it was just testing her out so
that she could join us, you know, and then he tried to, you know, to reward her for it.
And that's, that's what happens. But yeah, I love mom's for liberty. I think they're so cool. I vote for them everywhere. Are they
the ones that they keep bringing up the the litter boxes that kids who I don't know
have to poop in at school, right? That's like their. Yeah, it's a zero. Ziegler boasted that
she helped write Florida's infamous parental rights and education act also known as the
Don't Say Gay law, it aims
to protect children in kindergarten through the third grade for sexual indoctrination by
banning gender discussions in schools.
Ziegler has gone out of her way to help foster homophobia.
When a woman accused the only openly gay Sarasota Kennedy school board member of being a groomer
during a public hearing earlier this year, Ziegler offered no defense of her colleague.
She told the gerrying crowd to let the woman finish speaking.
Let her finish.
I'm sorry.
If the idea of sexual indoctrination is so funny to me, because it's like, it's really like the only
people that would complain about anything like sexual indoctrination are people who are gay and are
like, no, we can't showcase gay stuff or else they might love it too much.
It's the old fun and cool and it's not sexy at all.
Yeah, the listen to this, it says,
in a Bloomberg news podcast earlier this year,
Ziegler told the reporters about being bullied by mean girls in high school,
how she didn't finish college and how her quote,
research led her to believe that trans children have caught a social disease. I love it with a prison of social disease.
Like they're talking about a sailor in the 19th century or something.
Yeah.
It's so cool to think of being gay as like those people who hit their heads and like
pretend that it changed their accent to Chinese.
It's the same exact thing when you're dealing with kids.
They're adolescent brains.
Going back to the concept of indoctrinating kids
to being gay in school, it's like, could you imagine if you had to give kids
the homework of having gay sex? That wouldn't work.
None of us would do it. Yeah, I would be like one of those things in like AP, APU last where they're like, oh, you
also have to like read the New York Times every day and you just lie about it. Yeah, yeah,
I've been, I've totally been having gay sex. Get type into chat GPT now, like have gay sex for me.
Hey, hey, your gay friend to have your gay sex homework for you
because you don't want to.
Yeah.
I would have been making a lot of money
in high school guys.
I wouldn't be rich.
I really, I really don't want to do my gay sex exam.
Please, Ben.
I always hated it when the teacher said,
show your work.
You know, if I get the right answer,
I mean, what business is yours?
How I arrived at there?
Yeah.
Billy, we saw on the news that your older brother
was doing your gay sex homework in Congress,
where he worked.
So that's what I was doing. He was doing a gay sex homework in Congress where he was doing a presentation
to Congress.
You're going to have to redo this homework, Billy.
I mean school, I don't know.
I feel like school definitely made me gay, but it wasn't as if anything I was taught.
It was just like gym class and like playing soccer. He was those like baking soda volcanoes.
Sorry.
That's what you did.
That was when you were like, yeah.
So yeah, best of luck to the moms for Liberty and their in their quest for, you know,
both Liberty and hot three ways.
I think like aren't they like funded by someone too?
Like, there's no way they make actual,
they're like a grassroots thing, right?
It's like, no, yeah, they just sort of popped up
in the last like four years.
And I don't know, I don't know exactly, like,
who is funding them, but it's probably like the usual suspects, like Rebecca Mercer,
Harlan Crowe, like people like that.
The funny thing about them as a group is that like,
their record is pretty much just nothing but bricks.
Yeah.
It's the current conservative media machine
is just like completely whippinging on all public school-related
things.
I think they got wiped out in every school board election in the last two years.
That's amazing.
I love them.
They should definitely keep it up.
Don't change your strategy.
It seems like it's working.
I love how the one person who actually got a school board position was the one person
who actually has, who actually Fox works for that.
I think they're all like this.
They're all like this.
That's why I said, it doesn't make sense.
Usually, imagine people who are sex lovers are Usually, people, you imagine people who aren't sex lovers
are mad at people, other people having sex.
But maybe, I think you're right, hasn't.
Maybe they're just mad at people being too kind of kink
of verse in the grade school curriculum.
But here's another bit of gay news
that I just saw this sort of before we started recording.
Pope says priests can bless same sexsex couples, a radical change in Vatican
policy, a document from the Vatican's doctrine office released Monday and
says that people seeking God's love and mercy shouldn't be subject to
quote, an exhaustive moral analysis to reach it.
I got to say as someone who converted to Catholicism three months ago,
this is a horrible affront to the beliefs of of my religion and this help is the antichrist
We're gay guys begging to be blessed by the Pope was that who wanted that?
I like it's it's very funny because it's like you know when the priest when a priest blesses people
He kind of just does it like to the whole yeah the whole kind of, you know, the whole congregation. He just goes like, like makes the thing. And it's funny to
imagine that like before you go in there to get blessed, you have to like, you know, they have to
check, are you gay? If you're gay, it's going to neutralize it for everyone else in here. So you
got to tell the truth. I would imagine if you're gay and you're in the crowd
and he's doing the, he's like, you know,
making a son at the cross blessing,
you're just like, oh, that's not for me.
I'm going to be in this.
But now in the back of your mind,
you don't have to say, I'm gay, everyone,
you can just in the back of your mind say,
hey, I'm covered.
If you're gay, it has a pushback effect,
like an attack in a video game.
You got to push back a few feet.
I imagine that it was like, you know, when you check bags at the airport and they, you know, they ask you like, oh, you know, do you have like a lithium battery in here? And you just lie.
I always figured it was just like that. But, um, yeah, it's cool. It's cool that you can you can get the
Splash blessing effect for the brief. Yeah. Yeah, it's like it's like do you have a lithium battery in your suitcase?
Have you had diarrhea in the last two weeks before going in this pool?
You don't really need to tell the truth. You can just do you I feel like Pope Francis is just like kind of
flexing on the
Like people that get
mad at him. Like he's just loving it now. He, I feel like he just loves watching the
haters squirm and watching him sort of like George Santos in that regard. Yeah, it's
exactly. So like a group of people who are probably not too pleased with this group is the New York City
downtown scene.
And I would like to go now to the last article I want to talk about.
This is a profile in the New York Times of a sort of like the latest one of these aborted
attempts to sort of jumpstart an alternate living, sort of like alternate lifestyle cult
and art scene in the downtown of Manhattan.
A headline, would you give this guy millions to build his own utopia? style cult and art scene in the downtown of Manhattan.
Headline, would you give this guy millions
to build his own utopia?
And this is about, this is about,
one of these, I don't know,
sort of like sci-fi city projects that like,
I don't know, sort of anarcho,
accelerationist, capitalist,
whatever are trying to sort of
kindle in the downtown scene.
And I'm just going to read a little bit here.
When he took the stage at a conference for startup societies in Amsterdam in October,
October, 27-year-old Dryden Brown cut a rumpled figure, moving stiffly in a gray hoodie
with a t-shirt poking out at the bottom.
He was there to tell his company Praxis, which has an ambitious goal to create a new city on the Mediterranean.
The Santa Barbara native had never built a house before, let alone a city.
In New York University dropout, he had been fired from his last job, but a hedge fund.
He isn't a charismatic speaker or an accomplished businessman.
He's big on promises and light on specifics, such as where the 28,600 mile Mediterranean coast his city will be.
Nevertheless, he has raised 19.000 billion. where the 28,600 mile Mediterranean coast is city will be.
Nevertheless, he has raised 19.2 billion.
Off to a great start.
Yeah.
He has raised 19.2 million dollars for his project,
a poultry amount in the world's adventure
and capital and urban development.
Hudson Yards, for example, cost 25 billion,
but still a lot to work over to a young man
with no track record.
So Hudson Yards cost 25 billion dollars. Yeah, just just
the enthusiasm. Be dozens of people to kill themselves. It's just like an equinox and then
that suicide structure. It's so funny. So yeah, but I mean, like, keep in mind that that
was that 25 billion dollars to build the suicide staircase in lower Manhattan.
Yes.
This guy wants to build the praxis city somewhere on the Mediterranean coast,
which I imagine, you know, it's probably a little bit cheaper than, you know,
the West Side Highway.
Yeah.
I mean, 19 million is like 19 million doesn't seem like a lot to build.
It really seems like not even close.
I also, I really hope they stay far away from Sicily and where my entire family
lives. It's on site if they choose anything close to there.
I think Sicily is like a little too Arab for them.
I don't think that. Exactly.
You're the dentist hopper monologue that he'd lead us to practice board meeting.
Well, actually, that's pretty much the direction this is going. Praxis Board meeting.
Well actually, that's pretty much the direction this is going. And a monotone delivery, 11 by Surfer Dude inflections, Mr. Brown made some astounding claims.
His team, he said included two former prime ministers and was armed with investments from leading venture capitalists.
The waiting list for membership, Mr. Brown said, was nearly 50,000 people long with 12,000 members already interested in moving on mass to a beautiful green city presented in slick
rendering by Zahadid Architects starting in 2026.
Practices extravagant plans face daunting odds even within the moonshot culture of tech
investing.
But what makes that more than $19 million truly strange is the disturbing society, Mr. Brown,
wishes to build inside his city.
Our values inform our vision for the future read a slide during his presentation at the
Network State Conference.
Our vision is a more vital future for humanity.
The guide denounces enemies of vitality who, quote, reject what they consider the optimal
European beauty standards.
It goes on to extol traditional European Western beauty standards on which the civilized
world at its best points has always found success.
I'm a little confused by this.
So he's saying that civilization, like once we need beautiful European people to put
civilization back on track is basically what he's saying.
We need like sort of, I don't know, Dutch or Danish models.
Yeah.
Cause like, I'm sorry,
like those aren't the people that I would choose
to found in new civilization.
Yeah.
Do we have any engineers?
Do we have any engineers among the hot people?
Yeah.
I also think like those people are probably
just having a great time as it is.
I don't think they need to go with this.
I'm just gonna talk with you
when I leave like Amsterdam, Rick Opanig.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's three distinct, personal groups
that he wanted to incorporate in this new city.
Did you see that?
It's so fucking funny.
Yeah, yeah.
It's like, you're just a fucking nerd, dude.
Like, you're a dope pussy getting nerd
who's doing city skylines but making it racist.
Is the set of HBO's Rome still up?
They could just live there.
Yeah.
Put a sink in the middle.
He said that he wanted to do the 3% of the types of muscular warriors that very thin
priests.
And then the other one was portly merchants.
And I think these guys, the guys building it, the guys, you know, kind of running this,
like to think of themselves as the Portley merchants
because they're definitely not the, you know,
warrior class.
And I think the thin priests,
I suppose we should be some kind of proto gay guy
or something, but they're just nerds.
Yeah, like they are not Portley merchants.
No one tell them like a punchback computer use.
No one tell them historically, yeah,
no one tell them who like merchants historically were in
like the Middle Ages,
because they will probably not be happy about.
I was looking at this.
He's looking to Venice for this.
Yes, I'm sure those people will not be allowed
into practice.
But it goes along here.
It says beauty here canotes proper breeding.
In humans, beauty implies a number of things,
namely that two people themselves of beauty
form the union to create more beautiful life it reads.
I mean, I don't think there's a one-to-one correlation
between having hot parents and being...
No, it's a skips the generation.
Yeah, it definitely skips the generation.
I think having at least one ugly parent
is makes for the hottest kid, because we get weird is. Yeah, I think having like at least one ugly parent is makes for like the hottest kid
because we get weird people.
The first that you know.
I would love like to see what,
how they handle the first ugly kid born.
Like probably like smarter than,
probably like smarter than what I'm talking about.
Maybe that's like why they want it in Sicily.
Like if you're born, if you're born as an ugly kid,
you just have your
sentence to being just a regular Sicilian.
You have to step to the other side of a chocolate line on the ground.
No, this is great though.
This is my favorite quote here.
It says, so he says, beauty canode's proper breathing, but it goes on to say, according
to several former practice employees who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they signed non-disclosure agreements, Mr. Brown
had discussed wanting to attract tech talent to the city by introducing founders to quote
hot girls.
So this is like, Mars needs women.
Yeah, they just, they've got to correct, like we need, we need people to proper breeding
to correct, like sort correct counterbalance the hugely disproportionately
weighted gendered imbalance.
It's like a 12 year old's idea of what if I had billions
of dollars to create the greatest D&D campaign of all time?
Yeah.
Like, where yeah, it'll be filled with all these characters,
like all these thin priests.
First of all, how many thin priests do you like,
what happens if there's an imbalance, you know,
who are the warriors gonna be fighting?
What are they gonna be doing?
You know, as said, the warriors will be engaged
in mind.
I don't know.
And they will be engaged in the warfare of memes.
Yeah, it's literally Caesar's Legion from Fallout, New Vegas.
This is what they're describing.
It says here, he threw lavish parties where computer nerds rubbed elbows
with the stylish members of a now infamous demimond
that has grown up in and around New York's Chinatown,
which places shock above most other values.
Going on here, it says, in Amsterdam, Mr. Brown
described praxis as his response to being trapped in his apartment during COVID mixed with his
longstanding interest in colonial America. Ready to join America in 1776, read a company pitch deck?
I mean, I'm sure. Yeah, yeah. I'm pretty sure they all got collar on.
Okay, what do you say this?
I didn't know what it was going to or what it was doing at the time.
But I did in fact go to one of these praxis parties.
And I got, it was the one with the horse.
It was not the one with the horse.
That was the Supreme Party.
This was the party at a venue called Bella Chao in little Italy.
Like the Catherine de Great in this big basement.
I was there for a total of maybe 30 seconds.
I get in and this...
It was just the vibes were that bad.
It was so awesome.
It was just walking in and out.
I get down to this basement and this gay guy who I know, who I'm friends with, he's crazy, but you know,
she's a crazy gay guy and he was like,
so do you want a job making $200,000 a year?
And I was like, of course, I would love that.
And he's like, okay, but the thing is you have,
he was just on, he coked the fuck out.
And he's like, well, I think you have to move to Montenegro
and five because we're buying it.
And I was like, I think I'm good.
I think I'm good on this.
And there are people that are wearing shirts that say
to the I Heart Practice.
And I was like, this is like a terrible weird vibe.
They're talking about buying Montenegro,
giving me $200,000.
Okay, wait a second.
So I left.
They're going to buy Montenegro.
Yeah, they're buying Montenegro.
It involves buying Montenegro.
Yeah. I think it'll make Montenegren's work.
Because I'm even more opposed to this.
If they're violating the 10 Montenegren Commandments with this Praxis project, then they're
going to go straight to hell.
This is a year or so ago.
So honestly, it seems like this guy is following the 10 Montenegren Commandments.
Yes.
It goes on in the article. It says you're applying only to Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, and Cambridge, Mr. Brown was
rejected by all of them.
He ended up in NYU and tried to transfer to Stanford and was rejected again.
If you see a man applying to college, stop him.
I hope he'll not do that.
I also love that he was like, oh, this is his response to being stuck in his room,
going to COVID lockdown.
It's like, oh yeah, you're gonna make me stay in my room.
Well, what if I do this?
Like it's something he's inflicting on all of us.
It feels like he's making him lock down.
He's doing this in response to being rejected
for his entire life by all institutions and women, you know, yeah, it's like we got to get hot girls.
The best way to convince them to come is to just be like, is to explain the,
the classes.
If you've ever talked to girl about a video game, you know that you love that shit.
You've got to be like, I'm a priest. So that means, you know, I'm a roguelike cleric. So, yeah. Do you like to do some drugs?
And it wasn't just being trapped in his apartment in COVID-19, that sort of midwife, this beautiful
dream, it says here, so too had the experience of watching the Black Lives Matter
protests, which made Mr. Brown fear he said in an interview with Mr. Stone, that he might
be dragged from his Prince Street apartment. Oh my God. I mean, like, what? Just, all right.
You're like, yeah, baby. Now I need to build a leasing him because I think like, oh my God,
they're going to take me out of my apartment on Prince Street. One cares. Yeah, that's.
And what, and what you barely wanted you.
Yeah.
You think like random protesters are coming for you.
They hate my beauty.
They hate the Portley Virgin class.
They hate the Portley Virgin.
They hate that I'm a Portley Virgin screaming out your window to no one.
You could never be a Portley Virgin. We're not on Prince Street. They hate that I'm a portly merchant screaming out your window to no one
is the protest we're not on
Prince Street don't don't drag me out. No
Is it coming at me?
Is he drag like brag about living on Prince Street? Like is that?
Yeah, oh my god
That's so that's so fucking depressing. Yeah, they're so jealous of my
princetory department.
They're gonna they're gonna kick down the door.
My gorgeously appointed 8,000 square foot loft and so
ho.
Yeah, well that didn't happen, but I still
think I probably should build this.
Yeah, but yeah, yeah, that never happened.
But yeah, like I think I need to move to Sicily with people
of the proper breeding and a warrior class to protect me from
Miss Grian's and urchins.
Yeah, it's like, okay, if he's afraid of just being like swept up off the street being killed for being anoying,
well, I would be way more afraid of the Camara.
Or like, yeah, that's great.
I'm going to be a rich American flashing around tons of cash in like fucking Sicily or
the New Drong at times.
Yeah.
And Naples or whatever.
Like walking on the street, whistling to yourself, counting your crypto currency or whatever.
Yeah.
Oh, it's like, yeah, you'd like to invest in my city?
Sure.
It's a very good.
And this month in Egro, month in Egro is going to do the thing
Castro does in the Simpsons when Mr.
Burrins and the $1,000, $1,000, $1,000, $1,000,000 bill.
Where he just, he's like, here's the money.
Now can we have the country?
And he's like, what money?
We just have to leave.
Mr. Burrins, I think we can trust the president of Cuba.
Now give it back.
Give it back.
It's additional details here.
It says in September,
Mother Jones published an expose about Mr. Brown's politics,
reporting that he had urged staff to read the fascist writer Julius Evola,
according to a former practice employee who signed a non-disclosure agreement.
And by the way, how come like for a company
that's literally done nothing,
every single employee has signed a non-disclosure agreement?
That's always a good sign.
Like, if somebody has produced anything,
I don't think we even have staff,
everyone who's talked to this guy has signed an NDA.
It's as if you're a former Praxis employee
who signed a non-disclosure agreement. Mr. Brown's book collection in the so-called Praxis Embassy also included the memoirs of
Albert Speer at Alfitler's Architect and Imperium, an influential 1948 title that calls
for the establishment of a neo-Nazi empire in Europe.
We have thousands of books in our office.
I don't include all their ideas.
Mr. Brown wrote in an email.
Like you wrote that up for someone who found a non-binary who could.
And the angel raises baby.
That um that that average spirit book um it contains a portion where he complains about being
uh beaten up by spheres to band of brothers. what he was in the spanned out military prison.
Oh, right, the real guy.
Yeah, he's like the real Spheres.
Yeah, he's like the real Spheres.
Yeah, he's like the real Spheres.
Spheres was a real guy.
He did all that shit and he also abused Elbridge Spheres.
He was on the sexy run.
Yeah, he's the one who goes over the Germans.
Yeah, that's so cool. Yeah. He's the guy who gives you a cigarette before shooting you. Yeah, yeah, he's the experienced as a sexy one. He was not one who oh my god. That's so cool. Yeah. He's the guy
gives you a cigarette before
shooting you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yes, please. I love that. I love
that when he killed that guy for
being from the Pacific Northwest.
Yeah.
All right. Here's the best. Here's
the best quote in the piece though.
In an untated Instagram story, from inside the Praxis
office that was reviewed by The New York Times,
a man measured Mr. Brown's face using calipers.
One of the main tools of fizzy agnomy,
the pseudoscience of judge and character
from facial characteristics, end of franology,
the discredited science of predicting mental traits
by measuring bumps on the skull.
Mr. Brown did not clarify in his email response
why he wanted his head measured.
It's so funny to be like,
oh, we have to measure this guy's character.
This fre-
because he seems kind of like a freak
and he seems like he has a poor character.
Let's see how wide his head is.
Oh, apparently we might want to like,
I don't know, maybe our brains are working properly
because I think he has a man of poor character,
but according to these calipers,
he's actually a great guy.
Oh, God, I'm looking at the phone.
Yeah, he's got pin head, no chin.
So yeah, I can understand how to be a little
a little bit sensitive about physiognomy.
But again, like, why do I break out the character in Calipers to measure this guy's character?
I just read he was not accepted into Harvard, Oxford, or yeah.
He's obviously a sub-mental.
Yeah.
I would say judging by this face, it just looks like he's got a pocketful of Rohipnall.
That's my judgment on his character.
He looks like instead of Andrew Garfield, he looks like Andrew Heathcliff.
That's what I'm doing.
That's exactly what I'm dreaming. Just to clear out the fitness of the article here, it says,
of late, Mr. Brown has posted about effective accelerationism,
a concept popularized by the venture capitalist,
Mark Andreessen, probably the only other guy
with a weirder skull shape than this dude.
It holds that Silicon Valley should pursue rapid technological
development, even at the cost of painful social changes,
and the interest of bringing about a super abundant utopia.
On a personal blog, Mr. Brown wrote on October 18th that practices building acceleration
zones and is consulting with seven governments about where to place them.
Rendering of the hypothetical city posted in October to the practice Instagram account,
to pick low-slung, curvilinear structure is nestled into the coastal chaparral.
On X, Mr. Brown has promised airships
to future residents.
That's so.
That's for $19 million for the low-low price
of $19 million of investment.
You too can live on some sort of acceleration
as a dirigible with this chinless dickhead.
Yeah, isn't helium running out?
They're probably not going to hydrogen for the humanity.
Oh, the humanity.
Last paragraph here.
But Mr. Brown has found a chili reception
in at least one important court.
According to the person familiar with Mr. Teal's investments,
Mr. Brown pitched multiple representatives
of Mr. Teal over the past year, all of whom turned him down. The source said that Mr. Teal's investments. Mr. Brown pitched multiple representatives of Mr. Teal
over the past year, all of whom turned him down. The source said that Mr. Teal didn't think the
practice was capable of executing its ambitious plans. So, yeah, well, this is why we can't have
nice things. This is why we can't have nice practice, everybody. Yeah, we, it's, I mean, it's I mean it's right there in the name praxis. They're gonna do it
Means to do practice. Yeah, we talk in praxis. I can't miss the luck to Andrew Heathcliff and yeah
I want to be living in the city of tomorrow and I want to be living only in a city with people of proper breeding
I want with the right ratio of clerics to warriors
because last neighborhood I lived in
with nothing for fucking sorcerers
and Naria rogue to be found.
It's literally, it's like the living part.
I think we're barred here in Brooklyn.
Everyone thinks that they want to be a fucking singer.
It's like the libertarian thing where it's like,
you know, oh, how are they gonna,
how are you gonna build a road and maintain a road?
It's like that, but like,
for every job that's not a merchant, literally every job that's not a merchant,
like, oh, how are you going to take out the trash? I was the garbage going to be dealt with.
Oh, it's crypto. Yeah, because obviously, one of the handsome beautiful people there,
yeah, crypto, like, throw all the
garbage into a big incinerator connected to a Bitcoin generating machine. That's pretty
money. Yeah. Every time you throw something away, it means a new Bitcoin. And also, I
just realized what they're describing is the island from glass onion. So thank you to
that guy, Ryan Johnson.
Ryan Johnson. Yeah, putting this into the world is your fault.
Well, best of luck to the beautiful praxis. And best of luck to that guy in his soul.
I hope you fucking know. We get it fixed.
