Are you thirsty on this Thursday? A little dry.
i was not expecting you to say it like that louis capaldi has a song that's very sweet
and romantic and throw out all these names and i'm like bitch you're gonna fucking love
louis capaldi am i yes you say that i'm gonna love some people music wise i don't know i was
honest about taylor swift's latest album and i said i don't think you're gonna like it and then
i told you a couple songs that i thought you would like i played them for you you liked it
and then the last album i didn't say i like them i said they're fine and it would be better if you
stop whispering okay well not even I wouldn't even go to bat for that album because like I was
just like oh let me show you it was less about like Melissa I heard this song you're gonna love
it the what the I bet you think about me I was like Melissa she's back in her twang she's got
a twangy twang song Miss Arkansas I think you would enjoy it and you were like I've heard it
it wasn't bad he's British okay I do British people I will say do a lot of music better
the music that makes it here without a doubt also justice for little mix like fucking phenomenal
like he is so he is the male adele like people were saying that about sam smith people had this
whole actually no that's the theory about sam smith i lied people have a theory that sam smith's
and adele are the same person because they never in the same room together and if you
pitch up sam smith's voice it sounds exactly like adele if you pitch down adele's voice it
sounds like sam smith i was in on sam smith before they had a record deal oh okay it was a lot more
it was actually this company that was great it was like after napster and those limewire whatever
those shut down there was this other company that was owned actually like by windows at the time
that was like they would you could just get free music it was before apple music whatever it was
like but that's how i discovered sam smith and also amy winehouse and a lot of british people
actually he was british josh stone and yeah it was just a lot of cool people and some other folks too
but those are the ones that like hit it big that i still listen to but it was great and i listened
to them before they were famous and back then they're a lot more soulful than they are now
oh yeah so i can understand the adele comparison in that way lewis capaldi you've definitely heard
like his most famous songs like what is it someone you loved guess i got it
when the day bleeds and tonight fall and to get me through it i'm not gonna try and fully sing
it because like this is one of those songs that i sing in my car and i'm like wow i could be an
american idol and so like i don't know how to halfway do it without well trying many years ago
you told me that you could sing and i still haven't heard you actually i haven't heard you
actually sing yet so i'm still waiting on that well here's i know how to sing still haven't heard
it i've known you since 2016 i believe still haven't heard it you should know that post-covid
it's very i get so tired and so winded you had years but i'm not saying i'm like a great singer
but i know how to sing yeah still never heard it so okay well anyways so louis capaldi he's like
i want to be his friend so badly matz has literally only heard one of his songs and he's
like one of matz's celebrity like best friend crushes he has the greatest personality in the
entire world he's so fucking funny and so quick and then he talks and you're like oh you're a
singer and then he belts out he just beat ed sheeran for the number one most streamed song
in the uk which is someone that you love someone you loved his voice i would consider it like if
you gave like a uh male beyonce meets male adele so it has like the more adele has like a beautiful
tone especially when you get into higher but like so does beyonce but like beyonce has that like
i don't know when you like sit like the like the not the necessarily like the the lower range but
just that like she's saying church i was gonna say what's the singing version of like a guttural
noise where it's like coming it's coming from your soul like you grew up in a black church
so he has like and you're like what the fuck like it's and it sounds like he sang in a cathedral
like his voice just so fucking powerful and i will play his name again lewis capaldi and he
has a new song and literally all this goes back to it was she says she's thirsty i bring her water
and all the comments were like lewis you know that's not what she meant but you would think
Melissa, he is our sense of humor.
Okay.
I will listen to him tomorrow
as I'm driving through the city of Los Angeles
on my many stops,
and I'll get back to you next week.
He's just...
Where's the one that I was going to show you?
Oh, but this is his voice.
she brings me to peace i'm good no it's once it's beautiful okay and the craziest part
last season last summer nope that's a lot a lot of summers ago or winter his sometime of your
i watched it last summer okay so his ex-girlfriend so this girl goes on love island and she was like
yeah i've dated like i've dated celebrity before i feel like she's scottish so i'm so sorry that
it's not a good Scottish accent and they ask who it is and most of the time people say that I'm
like I have no idea who the fuck this person is she goes Lewis Capaldi and it was right as he was
like blowing up at the height of his fame and it was like what the fuck then he goes on to like win
some fucking award and he goes and Josh my girlfriend Paige she's on Love Island everybody
go vote for her and I was like that is like I love that wait what do people vote for on Love Island
you vote to keep people safe safe from what elimination like like elimination the public
oh i thought it was just a whole bunch of people getting together and just seeing who gets matched
paired off you think i could watch a show without stakes like that i like low stakes television but
only in the great british bake off no no no i need new fresh faces so every single fresh faces
that happens there too no but you basically they have like the public to go into it okay i'm
telling you the public votes and that's why you get psychologically it fucks people because then
people are like why do they hate us what are you doing behind my back gotcha okay anyways hi
welcome to but am i wrong starring two people who have never been wrong you might be wondering
what our names are my name's melissa and i'm joined by megan hi not megan mccain god no no
no no no no i wouldn't even dare to compare myself to megan markle because of course not except
we did go to the same sorority and we do have the exact same birthday and i was about to say
and for the same zodiac sign bitch you have the same birthday of course you're the same zodiac
sign i thought that there was one other thing tying us together oh we spell our names the same
cool so in an alternate universe we have received a few emails from people requesting since our email
address for our other podcast is meganpodcast at gmail.com people have been just kind of
throwing their hat out there i'm actually obsessed with the idea that they think that
megan markle's podcast the email would be meganpodcast at gmail.com you'd be surprised
actually of like companies that do gmail addresses with just basic things like i wouldn't be surprised
So celebrities have fucking like Yahoo, Gmail, AOL, but like the company part is a little
while.
Anyways, on this podcast where we happen to never be wrong, we tell you when you're wrong.
We have three different segments on the show.
We have it, but am I wrong?
Where we pitch to each other hot takes or things going on in our life where we are like,
hey, are we wrong?
Pot twist.
I never are.
Then we take your submissions in.
But are you wrong?
Where you write in and tell us what's happening in your life.
We will tell you if you are the hero or the villain in your story.
And then finally, we have But Are They Wrong, a.k.a. Rachel of the Week, a.k.a. Woad of the Week, where we nominate the worst of the worst or one of the worst of the week.
And we all publicly shame them because they deserve it.
Right.
So one of my favorite parts of the show, maybe, dare I say, the best part of the show, is you get to vote on who you think is wrong in every situation.
So these episodes come out on Thursday and I try to get the voting up on Friday.
Yeah.
I will say until the new year, let's just know that more likely than not within from now until the new year,
we're going to have them on Saturdays and Sundays a little bit more often.
Holiday season, it's just a little bit.
We won't have our regular recording schedule like we usually do.
Yeah. So we're doing like we're recording twice this week. You're going to be going out of town for the holidays. I'm going to be going out of town. And eventually when I go to Colorado, the service is not too great. So it's just, you know, just know that it will be up.
If you've been a listener of Don't Blame Me, you know that we we do, I think, a great job of holiday episodes and like stuff throughout this season, which can kind of be a lot of places just like totally take time off.
But we do adjust things to work for that.
So just know that that will be happening.
Those are on our highlights.
So they'll be up for 24 hours.
I add them all into the highlight when they go up.
i feel like i should say that we do read the results of the polls from who was right who was
wrong on each from each episode on our friday episode called fisting friday you're welcome
for us naming that when we name something it sticks yeah because it was supposed to be
a temporary name but then it was catchy yeah catch it right up that wherever you put a fist
your anus your mouth your cat i was like no i don't know if you could stick your own i'm i can
you might be able to because you have long limbs really fucking long arms i don't think i could
you should have just seen in my head i literally was like i can't no i wouldn't be able to turn
my wrist enough i immediately went to well i would be able to and then i go i don't think
she'd be able to like that's literally what was going through my head i go no there's no way you
could stick oh i could she couldn't i'm like that's that's the difference that but again if
someone were to make the thanos ring gauntlet whatever the fuck every time we can't say if
they were to make a fist of that like they could use your hand for a mold if they wanted to do
like a i don't know a giraffe neck an entire emu like gumby from gumby and pokey that's what you
would take this long ass thing for question i don't know if i okay did i say something wrong
it has nothing that's disgusting but like pbs i was gonna say where were you watching gumby and
pokey from the library yeah okay yeah because i know you didn't watch a lot of things no but we
had like three channels like the first ones that's why i said it was on pbs but i watched it on
nickelodeon so that's why i was asking i don't like it though i think we should outlaw claymation
with the one exception for rudolph all of the rest of them like what about frosty the snowman
that's in the same vein like that specific genre of christmas movie like those couple ones they
can stay i would like to get rid of like every other claymation movie like i think if you make
like claymation like that's you should be fined he and pill just made one i don't like it
i hate you heard it here first megan does not support black leading female characters
they did z-way
did you watch julia fox one yeah i still don't like julia fox that's fair you don't have to
but the way that i have never seen z-way break character more it was between that and katya
like it was just like you've been out z-wayed by people who like the z-way character can't even
handle these people's real yeah personalities it killed me that one was and also like z-way
looked so concerned i was like z-way is like concerned yeah about julia fox yeah for real
anyways all right so now it's time for but am i wrong and so this week i don't think it's really
a hot take but it's just some thoughts that i have um pronatalist do you know what those are
i mean use content clue context clues can you not see the gears turning in my head i go prenatal
before birth prenatal vitamins pronatal you said yes i did so pronatal would be
be if it's not before or after that's post but you know what pro is yep in favor of exactly in
favor of bait yes um yes i know where this is going um so pronatalists are advocates of the
policy or practice of encouraging people to have children and so there's been a movement amongst
silicon valley elitists the people with the money that people need to start having more babies oh i
should say what my thing is my hot take is that pronatalists are just eugenics yeah yeah so these
are people um in silicon valley that fear with the falling birth rates in certain quote-unquote
developed countries like the U.S. will lead to the extinction of cultures and ultimately the
collapse of civilization. And this is mostly coming from very rich white people. Some of the
main advocates are Simone and Malcolm Collins. And so there's this couple, those people believe that
if people who are smarter in their words smarter or more intelligent than most people
they should be the ones that are having all the babies and that's why like elon musk is someone
that's very pro this and he has i don't even know how many i don't think we know i don't think he
knows either yeah he's just like out here having babies because they feel like the more intelligent
people should be having babies, but it's really the rich people. And just because you're rich
does not make you intelligent. And I think he's a prime example of that. He has 10 known children,
Elon Musk. And he's been very vocal about this on his Twitter feed. They think that this will
be the solution of the world and that intelligence is genetically inherited, which is not true.
there are also a lot of the people in silicon valley are investing in genetic testing in embryos
artificial wombs and creating human eggs out of stem cells which why are y'all doing it just to
the eggs you can't do that from to sperm i mean you can but like we don't they're developing things
where we won't need sperm anymore to have children but so who are they going to put these in if so
they're not they're gonna have these artificial wombs and then the art of oh i guess you just cut
yeah this is like transformers means handmaid's tale uh-huh exactly and so my thing is is like
they think that these are gonna people that are are gonna be the people that are gonna solve the
future world problems and they're not even solving the problems that we have now like if these people
took the money that they have right now and invested it in, I don't know, the school system,
water and fighting climate change. Like what what are these future problems? No,
what you're trying to do is just make clones of yourselves and put your money in something that
does not ultimately matter. And the lesson I think we all should have learned from Transformers,
when you think that you can create life and that will solely benefit you and that those people
or whatever will be indebted to you and then work for you similarly that you would do is unpaid
labor no you're no like right that's not gonna end up well for you i know we've talked about
eugenics you've had eugenics before but i just i just want people to be aware of what is happening
and what these people are doing with money and some people think that rich people have all the
answers and solutions to things when it's no they have the answers and solutions for themselves
and this is a way for them to just take things
and it's another form of trying to say
that they have better genes
just because of where they are in their position in life.
Yeah.
And we've seen this throughout history
and current day in different forms.
And now we're taking the tech bro angle of this.
so you are not wrong at all on a much lighter note my hot take and i don't know how you're
going to agree with this raisins deserve more respect i have raisins in my pantry there we go
i don't know why i ever doubted you i have a lot of same food preferences we do i don't know why
we look we go to you go to the movie theater you're like oh i'm gonna get some milk duds i'm
gonna get a snicker i'm gonna get some mike and ike's and then it's like raisinets who's eating
those me me me me i'm sorry some of my favorite some of my favorite they are fucking perfect and
you mean to tell me that you're like no no no no i want these fancy truffles i want all this stuff
oh bring back the og you're gonna stuff a date with bacon and cheese and you're gonna turn your
nose on a chocolate covered raisin you drink wine and you're not gonna have this like little
beautiful tiny little morsel of sweet that's not too sweet but it's just sweet enough i just
remembered that sprouts have some in their bins of stuff i just think that what we have done to
raisins i need the pr behind big kale to get behind raisins because raisins are great they
come in the first of all cutest fucking packaging what snack babybel cheese and raisins only times
iconically you've got a little paper little box no one else is serving those nerds that's it
nerds i've got i'm sure you heard it here first as someone who's not fact checking any of this
that nerds got their inspiration of their packaging from raisins i'm sure and they're
kind of like look like a little bit somewhat like raisin little nugget shapes but we you would have
them in your lunches what you can put them on you can put them on oatmeal you can put them in
cookies you can do all these delicious things and then especially when it comes to like desserts
and baking they're already dried but unlike other dried fruits they're not getting crunchy they're
not getting like too airy but then they're also not so wet or way too chewy they're perfect and
i think they're exponentially better than grapes because grapes have a small window before they
get too squishy and you're like i need i need a grape to be crisp we we love a firm grape i love
oh give me a firm grape but if you give me a flaccid squishy little nut sack grape no that's
disgusting you'll spit it out you'll gag and we have been just looking down upon raisins since
what we turned 10 years old i'll tell you what happened you won't remember this administration
you won't remember this but because it happened before you were born but there used to be these
little guys called the california raisins and it was these little animated raisins it was
like a coalition of the uh california raisin advisory board foot cone and building i don't
know what happened to them the raisins oh sorry i was like those are random names for these
advertisement agency okay but they created these characters where it was these little
raisins that were animated and they were like blues singers and it was so much like this was
a big part of my childhood they had merchandise they had like tv specials like big raisin exists
and then we just need to bring we need to bring it back one of the raisins had old tweets resurface
And turns out one of the raisins is an anti-vaxxer, a COVID denier.
Well, according to them, the production cost for all the raisin stuff was twice.
They didn't have enough money to cover it.
Yet Eminem, I mean, I love the camp of those, of all of it.
But I think we could give up the planters Eminem thing.
I don't need him.
it says in 2015 it was announced that there was going to be a live action reboot and it never
happened so maybe we need to figure out who was doing it i just think that there has to have been
some television show something because i distinctly remember raisins suddenly like becoming uncool
and it was like we got to a certain age and it was no longer like oh raisins like it wasn't cool
anymore and i had to hide my love of raisinets and i would have to like if i was going to the
movies or getting candy i would have to be with the right company knowing that i was in a safe
place to eat my raisinets and then people were out here eating junior mints and i go you just
had an entire mouthful of toothpaste and you're gonna knock me for having some raisins but thing
like people love raisins if it's in a trail mix if it's in cereal like a raisin brand if it's like
once last time someone ate oatmeal without putting a little sprinkling of raisins on it
why are we pretending that like raisins play raisin has a seat at every table stop making
raisins a trail mix only play like you don't have to be on runyon canyon to have a raisin
go to the movie theater have a fucking raisin put the milk duds down put the dentist wants you to
stop put the put the fucking junior mints down you're lying to yourself nobody likes those
There's a reason why they serve York peppermint patties in singular things.
You don't need an entire carton of toothpaste.
Eat the raisin.
You know you fucking want to.
You know you want to eat the raisin.
I'm here with you.
I love them.
And I want to find a dairy-free chocolate-covered raisin.
You could also make them.
Oh, I'm so down to.
That would require tempering chocolate, and that is a little bit of a headache.
But what you could do is just like melt some and then just freeze it and then put it out and know that it's going to melt in your hand.
But like you're still going to get the sensation of it.
It's it's a it's a it's an instant gratification sort of thing.
And I just want to say that from the National Library of Medicine, I don't know if this is a credited website.
It doesn't sound like it.
Does it?
What's the end?
Does it say dot gov on it?
Yeah.
OK.
Sorry.
There's so many dots.
It's ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.
That's definitely a government website.
I'm like, it looks ugly as shit.
Oh, yeah.
When I see that blue bar at the top.
I know.
I'm like, looks fucking real.
And there's no ads.
It looks like a government website.
They are rich in fiber, even though it is 60% sugar content, which that's fine.
It's nature's candy.
Several studies have reported health-promoting properties of raisins,
as well as the cell line and animal mod...
Science.
It has been demonstrated that raisins possess a low to moderate glycemic index
and they can be involved in the improvement of cardiovascular health.
They may not, but they're not saying that they may be detrimental to cardiovascular health.
In addition, raisins maintain a good oral health due to their antibacterial activity,
adherence to teeth and optimum oral ph so it's sticking to your teeth but you can get them off
and it makes you do that versus a milk dud i promise you you have milk dud residue in your
teeth three years later you can't get that shit out you cannot it can also help with colon function
though they say that the research is slim it's only because they haven't paid to do more research
so if we get more people behind it this is the part that i was like they don't want us to know
about big raisin because big raisin like we need big this has the probability to be to blow
blood water somebody shut down raisin before we could get to the real conclusive answers
cell line and animal model studies show other potential benefits in specific diseases such
as cancer and alzheimer's i need to get some raisins who shut down raisins who who did this
and you who I want to blame
Big Printer
because that
is the only one
who nobody's looking
into Big Printer
it could be Big Kale too
think about it
I liked her
she had gumption
she did
and I don't think
she would do this
I forget that there was
a true person behind Big Kale
no and she was cool
yeah she was
and she took Kale
from nobody
to somebody
ethical scam
I don't think that she
would take down
you're right
this
this has
Marvel supervillain
written all over it
Yeah.
Bring raisins back, everybody.
Eat your raisins.
Stop spending $12 on kombucha and probiotics that are not actually real probiotics and
eat a fucking raisin.
You know what you can do?
Just eat like some chocolate chips that you can't eat and put raisins in your mouth.
I love a homemade concoction.
So you just you don't even have to worry about.
We got to talk about the ratio of chocolate to raisin and raisinettes and like the gloss
on them.
They're nice.
They are.
like they're they're poppable they're snackable also if you put them on top of popcorn
hot oh my gosh that's sweet and fucking salty oh my god in my case i don't put a lot of salt on it
but it's enough the corn like the corn with the chocolate and the and like the puffy of like the
airy kind of crispy and then you have this like rich chocolate everybody it says finally
overall incorporating 80 to 90 grams portion of raisin half a cup into the daily diet diet may be
favorable for human health okay i'm not going to go that far but i would just like justice
for raisins i stand with you thank you i'm glad to be supported in my endeavor and big raisin
the raisin coalition the group of raisins the raisinettes let's let's find the california
raisin advisory maybe we can join the board i am so happy to work with you and to get your message
out there space in fresno like can we just talk about how that fucking medical medium had bitches
like juicing a thousand pounds of celery every single day and shitting their brains out because
it was like oh this is gonna cure you from everything and y'all won't even eat a fucking
raisin yeah oh they got shut down last year never mind let's bring the band back together
hit me up well let's take a break
and we're back all right now it's time for but are you wrong and that's when
y'all write in and then we judge if you're wrong or not all right here's our first write-in me and
casey fake names 28 she hers i have been friends with casey since high school she was popular and
i was well known and friendly with everyone but not in the popular clique she has always been
kind of secret about our friendship casey has a habit of making everything about her when i got
engaged, she cried about her boyfriend not moving in with her. When I got married and had a baby,
she cried about not being engaged. I have always been expected to console her. When my baby was
in the hospital, she didn't care but expected me to console her about her dog's potential cough.
Shut the fuck up. Casey told me she was planning to ghost a girl who had Casey as her maid of
honor. I told her to be direct, but she wanted to avoid the confrontation and told me her plan
to ice the girl out. Recently, Casey seemed to be doing the exact plan to me. I asked her and she
proceeded to say some hurtful things to me. She said I was annoying for asking if she was pulling
back. After three weeks, she reached back out and said that because I care and check in, I am the
problem and her other friends don't notice when she's going through things and being in hermit
mode. I told her it felt like after getting engaged, she started only making time for her
high school popular friends to prep for choosing her bridal party. She didn't deny this and I know
optics matters to her. After all this, I told her I wouldn't check in anymore and she told me
she didn't want any of this to change our friendship. Am I wrong for not wanting to be
friends with Casey anymore? This is what you're wrong about. Keeping Casey as a friend for this
long when in high school like you are married with the child now in high school she didn't
want people to know that y'all were friends like i don't think you and casey have been i don't think
casey's been your friend ever no she's not your friend like this girl potential dog cough bitch
what is like a potential fucking cough like a burp like a like a fucking a little a scratch in
my throat times when my dog yawns she'll go and it sounds kind of like a almost a cough but like
this is not your friend she never has been she uses you for emotional support that she can't
get from her friends that she has just for optics which is fucked up yeah she has no real friends
like because she's the fucking worst and you are just the person who has tolerated her bullshit
that she just continues to dump on you this is like fully unhinged she's saying that you're the
problem because you check in on her i can't believe that at y'all's i don't know i don't
know you said 28 at y'all's big age that she's still acting like this i can i had a friend i
wouldn't consider the friendship very close they would have considered it much closer than i
ever did but if i considered them like a close friend that it would have like wrecked me and
i would have been like oh my this would have weighed on me a lot more but yeah they made
everything good or bad that happened in my life about them and then suddenly like i was always
in trouble and like they were always mad i was always having to apologize for either going
through something that was tough or having something good happen and it was like always
is like i'm indebted to you or like i'm so sorry and i was like what the fuck am i what like it's
just but the reason why people do that is like well-adjusted people don't do that and you can't
do that to everybody you only do that to the people who like you think are going to like stick
through on the other side yeah so your question i told you why i think you're wrong but you asked
am i wrong for not wanting to be friends with casey anymore no so glad you finally arrived here
i just met you and her and i've been here for years she's this is this is so
i also just want to know like did you call her when you got engaged or did she call you crying
because she saw the pictures yeah or you like showed your ring and you're like
no there are so many times i would have not i would have just ghosted her even though you are
somebody that likes to communicate but yeah get rid of her yeah get rid of high school you
is about to jump for joy and cheering as you have when you're ready to fucking and like be as
bitchy about it as you fucking want you don't have to be mature about it like she wanted to
keep your friendship secret in high school no no as an only child i'm not a technically real
only child but i was raised as an only child i wonder this to me is like only child energy who
like sees people complain about like their weird sibling or cousin that they have to invite and
like obligation and so then they don't have that so they cast a friend in that role yeah to then be
the voice of reason the the shoulder you cry on but then you get to make fun of them in groups
of bigger people like it's it's like literally giving like movie there was a friend that i had
this was when i was living in pennsylvania so that would have been middle school that i was
i guess a popular person and popular ish and she wasn't and other people thought she was like
weird but i thought she was cool and like i invited her to my birthday party and people
were like why is she here and i was like because she's my friend yeah okay okay hi megan and melissa
i will get right to it i 28 female work in a facility where i'm only one of two women
the job is in my field environmental science but lately i feel like it has been hurting my
mental health. I feel as though this job and environment has made me feel such disdain for
men overall. It doesn't help that the men I work with tend to have vulgar and inappropriate
conversations no matter if I'm around them or not. Recently, they have been eating my food in
the only fridge as well as using my coffee creamer, all labeled with my name clearly.
In the past, when asked, I have agreed to share food as I know I am more financially fortunate
than a lot of my coworkers. But I have now had two cases of creamer go missing without a word.
My boss suggested I put laxatives in the creamer and then whoever was doing it would probably stop.
My question is, would it be wrong to do this?
It feels icky to basically poison someone, but it is also fully labeled as mine and not to drink it.
My boss offered no other help in the matter and I am actively looking for a different job.
Part of me feels bad to do this, but part of me is just mad and hates my co-workers.
I'm a Scorpio and not sensitive, so be harsh if I am very wrong. Thanks.
here's the thing when this was first being read before we got to what your boss said i
immediate thought in my head gotta put some laxatives in there so the summary of this am
i wrong for poisoning coffee creamer and i was like i don't know this about but no you're not
i know that's why i was dying i was like she knew how she knew how to look me in and she did
no you would not be wrong at all first of all your boss suggested you do it also it's yours
first of all you might need the laxative you might be backed up like it's not arsenic it's not
like a poison poison like this is used as somebody who sometimes gets constipated i
gotta take a laxative and if you came in here and you and you took my drink without my permission
you have not you don't even know what you're consenting to because i didn't consent you to
take my drink yeah exactly when you eat or drink somebody else's things you're just setting
yourself up because you're taking a chance you don't know what's in there you don't know if they
went to the bathroom wiped their ass and then touched it with their bare bare hands and didn't
wash their hands i think the laxative is that the the most g-rated nicest route you could go with
this i think that you have a threshold to do something far more disgusting it's your food
even if you didn't do anything of it no like nobody knows how food is being prepared at one's
home what if you have a cat you have a cat up there licking all through the plate what if you
what if you brought two of the same and one has been in there for months
like that's the other day i had i made fresh rice but there was old rice in and i put them in the
same container and then i didn't know which one was and i had to throw them both out and that
fucking that hard rice that basically re-becomes the dried capsules of rice and you're like this
is we've come back to square one yeah i think that you're so in like you would not be wrong
i don't think so i would highly highly highly encourage it and i think it would be comical
and i would also pay attention to who goes that most of the people that uh work at your place
are male not in your bathroom that is true sends a message to all of them
i know what you're doing you bitch hey and if they're like incredibly like you know macho
macho alpha male douchey dudes too you could start you know scaring them and just like
speaking into their phones estrogen and milk propaganda and then they will think that if you
do soy milk that they're going to grow titties yeah i would say so that you still have creamer
get one of these double walled cold things like a thermos a thermos and put your creamer in there
and keep it with you or do i know it's not as good do the powdered kind but just until
everything passes if you know what i mean yeah and watch them face the consequences
through their fiery assholes yep what kind of laxatives would you use well it depends on what
kind of creamer creamer because this is like a chocolate creamer then i'm going to use a
chocolate laxative if it's uh like sometimes some of them are a little chalky it just depends
if it was green tea i would recommend um the most problematic name of a tea that's the use now maybe
it started off not being that problematic no no ballerina tea no i'm don't know that one it's sold
at bodegas i know it's a really but i don't know if like it's that's what it's like known for here
but like the origins of it is not being like whatever but you know the association of ballerinas
being incredibly thin and this problematic it's sold at bodegas in new york and every time kyle
comes to visit i am someone ibs when i travel cannot shit and my body's like immune to like
every other laxative like it's just not fucking happening ballerina tea is the only thing kyle
every time i went to go visit bowel ballerina ballerina but ballerina would be pretty that
would be fucking hilarious because you're dancing on that toilet that's fucking funny no but there's
literally like ballerinas on i know but every time i would come to work he would have a box
already and he'd be like steeping some tea and he goes hopefully by day three you'll be able to shit
what a good friend oh yeah he's also got tummy issues all right next write-in hey bitches would
love to know if you think this is an ethical scam. My boyfriend Dan, he him 25, thinks it's an ethical
scam and I disagree. So this situation doesn't completely pertain to me, she her 25, but it
pertains to my brother-in-law Frank, he him 31. Frank's grandmother, let's call her Mary, and
grandfather, let's call him Barry, have been scammed. Mary and Barry have always wanted their
fortune and house to go to the church. They've lived a very privileged life with servants.
Mary passed away last year and Barry is currently struggling with severe Alzheimer's.
Frank's aunt changed the will, making a lot of the money go to her instead of the church
and had Barry sign it.
Barry had no idea what he was doing.
Now Frank and his mother are getting lawyers involved,
which will be taken from their fortune as well.
I don't think it's ethical that Frank's aunt changed the will
and it's what his grandparents have always wanted.
Dan thinks donating a lot of money
to a Southern white Christian church is a bad idea,
which I agree,
but this is something his grandparents wanted their whole life.
dan and i are both liberal atheists and disagree on this would love to hear what you think the
only part that i think is unethical is them not cutting everybody else in on the deal i have to
agree here's the thing is it okay to take advantage of people when they are not of sound
mind and body the answer it depends it depends it depends who are you fucking over yeah and who's
gonna gain in this situation and i just have to say you don't know that they haven't officially
had a change of heart nor do i here's my other thing i will say you know i've got feelings about
death and dying and all that shit if you have a wish of where you want your money to go when you
die yeah it's a hope that's a hope where it's gonna there's no guarantee so as far as they know
when they pass on the church got all that money it's not like donating money when you're alive
and they build a hall in your honor and you see it happen it's literally like throwing a penny
and a wishing well like i think unless you are like a billionaire you're a bill gates you're
someone who has so much fucking money that all of like your living relatives and like are supported
for so much like donate whatever you want to donate to like whatever you can like donate those
sizable amounts of money but like you've got living if you've got like living relative i but
also the thing is like what's gonna happen is that the church unless they have a building fund which
all southern churches have a fucking building fund even after they've built the new church
they they're gonna take the money and then distribute it out to the community like why
not just cut the middleman out it's because the church is then gonna get rebates from the
government well also churches people are going to die every year and leave their money there
people are going to not die every year and donate their money every year no one's gonna don't even
every week people give money tithes to the church like every single week nobody's gonna do that to
your family like you're not it's not like oh well when they we're gonna have someone else is gonna
leave their money yeah it's like and again unless you've set up your kids their kids future
generations and like they will want for nothing why the fuck would i give my what what do you mean
that's like just throwing your money away at target someone's gonna spend money at target
tomorrow you don't have you're not it's not up to you to keep them employed me a christian from the
south no i'm not donating i know for a fact where my parents money is going is not going to the
church goes to me and then i distribute it to everybody else the point of being anti-generational
wealth is when only some people right now have generational wealth the goal everybody is
generational wealth you know who's had generational wealth forever who doesn't need it the churches
also who are these servants
I'm a little
who calls the people
that works in their homes
servants these days
oh wait she did
my immediate when I read that
before it went on too
did she say southern somewhere
yeah it's a southern white church
my mind automatically I was like
is it South Africa like that was
where my mind that's the last time I heard
someone use the term
I mean still incredibly but like
in this day and here saying that like that's if the implication is that your grandmother in her
grandmother and grandfather in their lives which they have recently passed were these people paid
yep because that's what a servant if not then they're the house staff but you don't call them
servant no it feels like she swapped the grandmother swapped for a different s word
that she just took a sidestep thinking that it meant something else they should get money too
that's what that was exactly what i was about to say i'm like if they weren't on salary and you
look at their contracts where where the if they were if they had to live there yeah either way
they should be getting money because they're not they're going to be out of a job when
barry dies yeah i think that the only the only issue here the only part that's wrong is i don't
think that we're thinking big enough i would go to the aunt and say we're either taking you to court
or everybody needs to get a check those are the two things i will say do i agree that the aunt
should probably get the most because she had the balls to start this she had the she she had the
she had the pussy to start this she had the titties to start start this yeah yeah i think you should
be accurately compensated for your for your gusto yeah for your bravery for your ruthlessness
and for your business entrepreneurial mind yes yeah ceo shee-e-o
elder abuse shee-e-o hey if my grandma if my grandma was fucking rich at the like when she
at all time i mean she was incredibly poor but if she was fucking wealthy and also southern and
christian and come on yeah the goal when people are experiencing dementia and alzheimer's and all
that stuff is don't rock the boat and so nobody should be trying to tell barry barry leave barry
out of this keep barry's money in this situation leave barry out of this just for the sake of who's
being their caregivers also what lawyer approved of barry signing the papers because you have to
usually have to have somebody there so the lawyers didn't want to do well i was gonna say i'm like if
they were employing quote-unquote servants i can't imagine their business practices were by the book
so yeah it might have just been the other party's lawyer who was like i'll act on behalf of both
When you give me my 10% check.
Okay, this is another milk one.
Hello, Melissa and Megan.
I almost read that as Megan Melissa
because I am an egocentric Leo
and I just put my name at first.
Bitch.
There's your real voice.
I've had some issues with a new coworker
for numerous things,
but this in particular grinds my gears.
I am a working parent that chess feeds
and therefore I pump at work.
We have two fridges in our break room
free for anyone to use
and I claimed an unused mini fridge
to put my pumped milk in.
Am I wrong for being kind of weirded out
that she puts her drinks in there on occasion?
The only reason I can think of her doing that
is because it's a further walk
to the other communal fridges
and she knows nobody else will try to access it.
She got mad at me once for moving her Coke can,
company provided,
plenty more of where it came from
and even if somebody were to have taken it.
I moved it out of the freezer portion
of the milk fridge and into another
because it had been there all day
and I didn't want to explode all over my child's milk
I worked hard to pump.
I don't know.
I've got friends with kids who...
chest feed and you know pump the milk do do all of those things but i take whatever i'm gonna say
like know that i don't have personal experience with this i know that like employers legally are
supposed to make accommodations for people if you're pumping and stuff i don't know if you've
gone about this through like your work and that's this is your only designated thing for that and
like it can't be with anything else like i don't know i know people who are like i have a friend
who's like an insane over-supplier.
And so they had like an extra freezer
and all of that stuff.
But I also don't know if they,
I guess my assumption was you just put the milk
in the regular fridge with the rest of your food.
But I don't know if like, that's not a thing.
But if you have not been given explicit access
that this is only your fridge
and all the employees know that like,
this is only for you and it has like a lock on it
that is again, like just for you.
i i don't think that you can like dictate who puts things in there i agree i from the people i know
that put their titty milk on reserve they usually put it in like a little plastic bag like it's like
specific for breast milk or in like a little jar but it goes in the in the refrigerator or the
freezer and like with everything else at your house like if you have frozen meat you just don't
I mean, but it's in a container.
Yeah.
So it's no different.
So, yeah, like unless they gave you this refrigerator specifically for this, you said you claimed it as your own.
But was it designated like you don't just because you claim something doesn't mean that it's yours.
And I don't think that you have, again, unless they said, I don't think you have a right to only put your breast milk in this refrigerator.
As long as like their space, then people can put whatever they want in there.
And if it let's say a Coke did burst, OK, you wipe it off and you move along.
It's not going to ruin the milk if it's in a proper container.
Yeah, I think if you're storing it and it's not enclosed and therefore like things could happen to it, then you need to have a lock on it.
And that needs to be again through your company has like given you to to do this.
but if it is even if like they've explicitly said this is only yours to use like this is just for
you unless you have a lock on it like you will be the asshole if you're moving people's things
because they put it in there they will also be the asshole because they're using a fridge they're
not supposed to but it's a fucking it's a break room like shit happens and i don't think it's
worth your time and energy to have to constantly be like policing your co-workers for this when
you either could have a lock on it if it's just yours or you're storing it in a way that is
not going to be affected if something explodes also a coke can being in the refrigerator all day
will not i thought she said freezer make it oh will that happen yeah if you put a coke can in
a freezer it can't explode know that from experience yeah so this is just like one of
the things that um sucks about being like a chest feeding parent who works that like pumping and
like having to like do all of this shit and I think it's great that your company has like given
you this to use but I think you're well within your rights to specifically ask like for a lock
for that or change up how you are storing it so it is secure um because I don't think the solution
is you just having a cooler with you
that you have to bring every day.
Like your work should be
having accommodations there.
But there's human error in employees
like adhering to those kinds of things.
And you do have to advocate for yourself.
But I personally think
if you can advocate for yourself
two or three times, that's great.
But if you have to do it every single day
and like constantly like policing your co-workers,
doing all of that sort of shit,
then like what can you do for your own peace of mind that you can adjust that makes it easier on
you because yeah i can imagine it being frustrating if it exploded and like ruined all of this but it
should be in a container that's what i'm yeah so i'm saying like and if you're like it can get
contaminated if it's not in a container well that's i think that's the the the concern here
and it's like if it's not if but that's like but the likelihood if you think now that if the coca
like if the coke explodes on it it will get contaminated i highly doubt you have been
pumping for this long and storing it at work in unsafe conditions that would make it so easy for
it to get contaminated like maybe it's even just doing a little more research and seeing that like
oh it might explode and get the outside sticky but it won't contaminate it there's a lot like still
of milk in general that are age-old things of people like if you have like a single drink you
need to pump and dump like a lot of those stuff is like old and no longer relevant and not updated
scientifically and not things that you have to do anymore so i would also just make sure that
you know you're not thinking that it's at risk for being contaminated when it's like really clearly
not yeah yeah i'm just looking at storage for that and like even if you use a little plastic
bags which a lot of people do they use the plastic bags and then just put that in some warm water and
then um but they have like a container to put those bags in too yeah that's like all my friends
do that's it's a bag within a bag within a bag within a bag and that's why people write the date
on them like they're they're really well organized in that and i don't think you have claim on a
refrigerator no just because you said this is my refrigerator all right time for another break
now it's time for but are they wrong and that's when we pick someone
well you already know because megan said at the top so no need to repeat all right
So my pick this week is Gordon Lashay, Lashay, I don't know, L-A-W-S-H-E.
He is a formal former council member, and he reported by reported he called the police on a nine year old girl.
who looks all of baby eight she's a little black girl and said that a little black woman
is spraying some unknown spray on the trees okay so this man is this little girl's neighbor he's
seen her plenty of times knows who the mom is this little girl she had on a hoodie she didn't
have a hood over her head though and he's calling her a little woman look seven like clearly a child
she was spraying spotted lanternflies which is an invasive species that threatens some trees
and plants and the department of agriculture in new jersey encouraged residents to do this to
begin with and this man like claims that he apologized to her and after he realized who it
was again a child he knew who it was from the beginning their neighbors he could have went
outside and looked her dead in the face and he was observing her from his backyard like a fucking
creep he didn't want to become involved in a confrontation so he called the police department
when he called the non-emergency number as if that's supposed to be right it's not that bad
and said that it was a little black woman spraying the sidewalks and trees with the unknown
substance and then the police officer came and was like why am i here essentially y'all heard part of
it and then he comes out and says well this is his lawyer saying that the lashaw name has been
associated with the borough of codwell for over 100 years the name lashaw and the word racism
had never been used in the same sentence in those 100 years and since mr lashaw has been accused of
being racist he and his family has received death threats to their person and property mr lashaw and
his family have been defamed and will continue to be defamed until the innuendo and direct
accusations and attacks against mr lashaw and his family cease okay that's what you get for calling
the police on a little girl who was trying to make the community better and you calling the police
and specifying that she's a little black woman in a hood.
You knew what you were trying to do.
Yeah, and you're her neighbor.
And I think beyond this being,
no doubt about it, this is just racist.
It's also creepy.
And I think we should be calling-
Fine from your backyard?
I think we should be calling you more things
than just a racist.
I think it's a little alarming
that you're so aware of the doings
of your child neighbor.
and you're the opposite of infantilizing her yeah what's and you're referring to her as a woman
which she's not not only is that you know trying to perceive as more of a quote-unquote threat
to police there's a large distinction with when we call people women versus girls and it's usually
regarding the objectification and the sexualizing so i think they should do a little deep diving on
him and might be on a few lists like yep disgusting disgusting
i would like to nominate chris brown and his subsidiaries chris brown i should be nominated
forever. I'm going to be the first person to say, obviously, I fucking hate him. But in my growing
up, I like have realized how we as a community, I think this is like the prime example of how we
have in my youth, how we failed victims of domestic violence. And I think the Johnny Depp case is what
will define this generation of failing that and how we have spoken about it like so casually.
i remember like i used to make like i don't even know how to describe this without it's gonna sound
bad because it is bad that like quote-unquote jokes about chris brown thinking when i was
saying them that it made him look bad and that it'd be like oh yeah like this fucking like
wife beater chris brown or whatever because that was constantly the joke like what we would hear
about and it goes oh actually that is not me knocking him that is me perpetuating
horrific jokes about like actual violence like that does not hurt him that hurts victims and
i had someone who messaged me like forever ago who's like hey you like made a like again like
they're like i don't want to call it a joke because it's clear you're trying to like poke
not even fun but like you're trying to shit talk on him but it doesn't like it does not like land
that way and i was like oh my gosh thank you watched it back and i was like yeah no that is so
so not how we should talk about it but for the longest time it's the only fucking way we talked
about domestic violence that was it so what happened i don't know what the inciting incident
was all i saw was people talking shit about him but i didn't know why recent now or back in the
day no no oh yeah yeah so this was so what i'm saying is this was like back like not exactly
But I'm saying why are people still because like last night, Head of Hoochie, she made a video about him and I was like, OK.
And then I saw it and I was like, she talks shit about people who deserve to be talked shit about all the time.
I thought this was just one of her videos.
And then I saw someone else and then someone else.
And I was like, what did he do recently?
So Chris Brown won the favorite male R&B artist at the AMAs.
Chris Brown was not in attendance at the AMAs.
there's speculation why he was not in attendance um there was somebody at the amas who has an active
restraining order against chris brown yep and that is part of the speculation it is not confirmed
there i will say there is a lot of fucking people who do not respect court order restraints
especially in hollywood and at these events that people so i'm not going to say that that's like
the reason why he wasn't there. But when they announced his name again for winning favorite
male R&B artist of the year, Kelly Rowland was presenting and the audience, a couple people
clapped. Most people started booing and Kelly Rowland started yelling at the audience and
specifically said there were some boos mixed in with the applause when his name was announced.
And Kelly Rowland told the crowd to chill out and says, I want to thank Chris. Thank you so much
for making great R&B music, and I want to tell him thank you for being an incredible performer.
I'll take this award, bring it to you. I love you. Congratulations. Then she was asked by a TMZ
photographer if Chris Brown needed to be forgiven. She said, we all need to be forgiven for anything
we can be doing, anything that we're thinking. We all come up short in some sort of way,
and grace is real. And you know who's coming up next? Jordan Sparks. Jordan Sparks joins Kelly
roland she's voiced for support for chris brown and okay variety let's be a little more specific
following an uncomfortable moment on the amas jordan sparks told tmz that she loves chris brown
and believes he should have been at the awards on sunday night people deserve to be able to grow and
learn and be able to live their life without things hanging over them everybody deserves that
him especially he continuously does the same things over and over he does not change no he
is a pattern of abusing women constantly and i'm all for reform but i maybe i've never said this
on the podcast there is a really specific sector of there's a very specific sect of
criminal justice reform that we are not even fucking close to addressing that is violence
against women and rape as well as pedophilia those are the things we aren't there yet we are not we
don't have support we do not believe all women we don't have resources we aren't in a in a society
that accepts these things as fact and does anything to dismantle the patriarchy and the
violence and abuse towards women so no there's actually i'm a strong fucking believer in pretty
much every other crime rehabilitation but as a society we can't you can rehabilitate sure you
welcome back to our society our society is not built to keep you up like that it is built to
get you to hurt women again and get you to be a fucking rapist and a predator all over again
because that is completely normalized and okay and encouraged by parts of our culture like so
that's no no you fucking did drugs sure violence sure robbery sure all of those things those things
can be worked on and i fully believe that you can become a completely different person but at this
point regardless of how much you change as an individual our society is not going to hold you
accountable at all like every time someone goes to fucking jail for beating a woman you always
people defending always have people fucking defending them like there is actually no
fucking possible way you can learn from your actions from a repeat offense when you have
millions of fucking fans telling you you did nothing wrong that's the biggest difference for
me is like yeah he should be i'm not saying i don't believe in the death penalty i don't think
he should die but do i think he should be able to have a platform to perform for thousands of people
and for people to see every single day like oh on the comments like he didn't do anything wrong
it's fine he's justified people like that like he's a good person he's a great person blah no
i remember and i think it was the amas when after everything happened the first time with rihanna
that was probably the only time that he was truly shunned by everyone and then he'd gone away for
like a year or two years and then came back and they gave him i believe it was amas they gave him
like a 15 minute performance that started outside and went inside james corden ish and that it was
like he's back he's forgiven him he's been forgiven but then it was like a week later he
was throwing chairs in a hotel room no it's our the patriarchy hurts men and it hurts women and
in this case you are a danger to people around you and you're specifically a danger to multiple
women and then to have other women get up there and stand up for him you should be so fucking
ashamed of yourselves listen to this honestly this is jordan sparks honestly i think that shouldn't
even be a conversation anymore. It's about his talent, which she said of Brown's controversial
past, which includes the highly publicized domestic violence incident against his then
girlfriend Rihanna. They just shouldn't have canceled the performance. That's how I feel
about that. And seemingly also sharing her support, but this is not confirmed. So I'm just
I mean, we heard Kelly Rowland. We heard Jordan Sparks. There's no denying this. I'm going to say
If Ciara's not showing her support, her social media manager should be fired.
But that is what the implication looks like.
Two days ago, Ciara posted a video of rehearsals for the tribute because they were doing it together.
And said, MJ, thank you for the inspiration you've given us all.
Chris Brown, you're a rare breed of this generation.
Always fun to rock with you.
And that was three days ago from the day that we're recording.
I just think this is so fucking embarrassing and the exception that people have made for him is horrific.
I know someone who used to work in, I don't know what specific sect of it, but knew intimate details of his tour bookings and he was selling more tickets quicker than anybody else.
Like people were clamoring to get to like post all of this, you know, in the last couple of years that he was selling out stadiums like literally nobody gave a shit.
ticket price it like people fucking loved him but i don't know the last time we've had this
much vocal support for him you know you think about publicized cases of domestic violence
again setting back for women and victims but i think something that i also neglected to think
about was how it opens the door for previous assaulters people who've been violent to use
public opinion to then gain to basically recount any apology and accountability and use it to
further their career even farther and having now all these people defending not just the
possibility of someone being innocent but defending someone who is not innocent it's
egregious enough to say i'm not going to believe this one who's come forward about being abused
because i you know i i i don't know like i need to hear all of the facts and like i don't buy it
because I watched the whole Johnny Depp trial
and now I think I'm a fucking lawyer
and I totally understand how the system works.
That's fucking awful.
And it's also fucking awful to go,
oh yeah, this man who publicly beat his girlfriend,
multiple girlfriends,
multiple people who has a history of being violent
and who has convicted, like this has happened.
I know it's happened and it's okay.
Let's stop talking about it and move on.
That is, now it's not that we're just not believing them
and it's just that we don't care.
yeah and i think it's like so supremely fucked and i don't care how talented somebody is
if you're violent and you are violent against women and also in the fucking industry like
the people he has hurt emotionally and physically they're in the room with you right now
they're watching you give this speech they're watching you defend him you're gonna see them
you're gonna see them in an event next week they know your name you know their name like
how fucking warped of a fuck how many fucking issues do you have that you can do that
and say that with your whole fucking chest to like do to other women it's just fucking awful
like it's it makes me so fucking mad and even like i don't want and nobody fucking go and look
on twitter and see what people say about this shit like it's so bad it's so so so bad and just
shout out to like not even just activists but like literally just like black women on twitter
who are constantly constantly like checking people of this i'd be like fuck no fuck off with this
bullshit not your responsibility whatsoever and like the vitriol and the shit that i see and these
like no i'm not gonna let you i'm not gonna let you spew this shit i'm gonna correct every single
thing you're saying i'm gonna tell you why this is wrong and like no like fuck off fucking white
dude incels who try and make this as like oh no this is not a race thing this is this is like
literally fuck off with this shit it makes me so mad yeah i don't watch that christian movie he's
in anymore after that happened i don't know like you'll be fine yeah i've literally blocked him i
was so mad that there's i didn't know it was his song but there's a song that's like one of the top
songs on tiktok right now that i just found out was his song i didn't even know it was i never
looked at the audio and then i saw it on reels and it was like chris brown and i was like are
you fucking kidding me yeah but like i said i saw a head of hoochie post something i reposted i just
thought we were anytime somebody's coming with anything to hate about him i'm gonna repost it
i think we should have a yearly reminder reminder chris brown is a piece of shit and i'm like great
let's do it again yeah see you next year and so i was like cool but then i just saw like two more
videos i was like something happened but i have it so again i mute a lot of things so i don't see
them so i didn't know that that had happened and it's really messed up and i'm i'm really
disappointed in kelly like me too because she's a survivor of domestic abuse too well part of me
wonders if she saw the
Fenty show and
I would just encourage everybody
if you have any hangups
about like fully
being done with him and canceling him
or any of it and this is with
like a full disclosure you should know like read
the fucking court documents. I don't think people
know what actually has happened. Look at the pictures.
But even beyond the actual
visual stuff find out
why people have restraining orders against him.
Like find out what's actually happened
because it's
as bad as you think it is it's so much worse to the point where like these people have restraining
orders because he is a danger to their lives and you're going to not only have him be in the same
like he didn't come to this award show and you're gonna be like no no risk her life risk her life
she should risk her life so he can get up here come on we can forgive him we can forgive him
what the fuck is wrong with you i don't think you know what this is like i just i genuinely
i have to believe in my mind that i'm like you have no idea actually what happened to you like
you you you actually you in my your mind you're justifying physical abuse here but do you know
about the threats and attempts that have been made here because if that's the case it's not even not
it's not just the court documents he sings about it in songs and I'm like and has said like if I'm
with somebody I'm gonna stalk her you know these women you do do they're in the room they're in
the fucking room with you and like the idea that either you have no idea and you're just talking
out of your fucking ass while still justifying and defending saying that we should move on from
violent abuse which you acknowledge actually happened or you know the reasons why people
have active restraining orders against him and you know what he has continued to do and how he
has not changed and you're still okay with that i'm like cool you want me dead thank you thank
you for co-sending someone who also wants me dead yeah amazing great wonderful criminal justice
reform is not at the expense of other people losing their lives like that's not what that
fucking is that's not reform that's just welcoming violent people back into your community saying
like we don't value your life and reform you're supposed it's supposed to course correct and he
hasn't changed his behavior nope and again unless it's not reformed and our society is not set up
to continue that on in these specific cases until we do some serious steps in eradicating misogyny
and the patriarchy within our own like day-to-day every activity like life gender roles and biases
like now like it can't happen like it just won't happen yeah you can block him on you've done that
you told me about this you can block him on spotify you can like block him on music apps and so won't
pop up but no nobody is talented enough that it justifies abusing people at all and i'm like so
disappointed in all these women so all right well that's the episode chris brown enemy of the show
anyways that is it for our episode is there any like good news something that we can share
that doesn't leave me in like a blind rage because that's kind of where i'm at right now

thanksgiving but we are ahead for hanukkah at least a couple days hanukkah is almost over
christmas this year and we're definitely ahead for christmas this is from one of my favorite

you facts that you should know and things you should know you should know there is a baking

flour and my favorite comment on this reddit was i imagine a bunch of grannies staffing the call
center armed with years of handwritten notes of baking tips and tricks they've made during their
lifetime it's heartwarming butterball also has one for turkey that's what it says too that hundred
