If you're not willing to put your father in a rear naked choke on the White House lawn, as millions of Americans

cheer on the life draining from his eyes, then maybe you're not man enough to own a home in this country. The UFC Freedom 250 Fight Dome will be the new Supreme Court. If you don't like it, you can live in the sewers, but you better move in quick, because people are being spotted entering manholes and alarming rate. Don't panic, though, it might just be the CIA planting explosives. Even outer space is getting carved up.

SpaceX is planning to IPO at a trillion dollar valuation. Or maybe a billion. It doesn't matter. Money's fake. Except when it's time for you to pay the rent. Then shit gets real as hell, bro. More and more young people are being convinced that doesn't make sense to own a home. Convinced by the very people who made it almost impossible for them to own a home in the first place.

Don't get it twisted. If anything makes financial sense, they would never tell you a home. about it. This isn't about money. It's about control. The act of moving, like job hunting, has turned into a nightmarish gauntlet of disclosures and interviews. Credit scores are quickly becoming meaningless. For the right to pay exorbitant rents, landlords now expect to comb through your bank statements and social media profiles, looking for anything to disqualify you. Your whole life is going to be an endless series of auditions, constantly needing, to recertify your loyalty to corporate governance and financial rule.

If you don't like it, you better start taking jujitsu classes. Welcome to mixed martial arts. Welcome to Kump. So these guys are just prying open a manhole. They don't work for the city. No one knows who they are. And you're entering it. They're in cover rolls.

This is their apartment. This is, this is preferable. to living in a shared, like, three-bedroom apartment. You go live in the sewer, you know, after that hard day's work, it's probably cooler down there. It's enjoyable. You know, this is how, that's how bad things are getting. Now, why would people, do we know anything about this?

More people, crocodile cat, what is, security cameras are recorded at least three nighttime instances where groups of people entered or exited sewer tunnels via maintenance holes in streets in Brooklyn and Queens. In one video, taking an early Friday morning in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn. It's not even like a crazy. That's like a, what do you call it?

Is that boogie the word? A group of roughly seven people were recorded popping out of a maintenance hole in the middle of an intersection in full view of passing cars. I mean, that's the best case is that they're re-evaluating, you know, trying to reinvigorate the moment in life. You know, I used to watch that movie Dark Days

back in life. like early 2000s. It was a documentary about the, I guess they were technically homeless, but they were like, they called them mole people. They lived in those abandoned subway tunnels. And they,

you know, they had a whole like, you know, kind of shanty village down there. And I really, you know, I wasn't, I wish I,

I wish by the time I was ready to move out that it was still available. But apparently it went in, you know, I guess Giuliani, you know, didn't let anyone have any fun

so we shut down the Dark Day tunnels. But yeah, it's a revival. This is, you know, or it's again, it's a, it's getting ready for Fourth of July. It's going to be a nice little, you know, false flag attack. In one video taking early Friday morning in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, some more headlamps and carry where it appeared to be shovels and other tools. One narrowly missed getting run over by a vehicle. Another video, a group of about seven people could be seen emerging from a maintenance toll. So this is, look, I mean, this is what you are, this is what they've asked for.

No one wants to play ball. You know, they want to play this constant game of a, let's inflate, you know, let's keep the value of homes up. Let's keep the value of apartments up. Let's not do anything. Look, I'm not asking for rent control, you know, I get it, you know, like there's a whole, you know, people talk about rent control to understand that when you try to rain control, you just end up removing the ability like lessening the amount of units available for rental

because these apartments are all owned by a monopoly, you know, a consortium of people and if you try to legislate them and regulate them, they'll fuck, they'll go to the mat. It's not that bullshit about like, oh, technically economic rule, no, it's about

people know how to burn inventory if you try to play get cute with them, all right? This is This is not game. This is how they kind of, this is how they, uh, exert their, their pressure.

I moved this week. I mean, how has, how's, how's, how's, what's, did you even know it was a new studio?

That's how that, you know, maybe not, maybe it did. Comment about, you know, see, but this is,

that's my point. I had to go through this whole process. This is a, this place is lovely. Uh, I'm very happy with the people here, because if they hear me through the wall saying anything else,

I, I will be, put out in the street. They'll inject me with bleach. And then it'll be like a little read song. So I'm very happy to be here. But you know, it's getting, there's too much. They're allowed to ask you too much.

And now, oh, the people come in and then you can't evict anybody. I don't know where that horseshit came from. I've, you know, I've gotten nothing but grief from landlords my whole life. I mean, here's the thing. Maybe it does work, but you have to be, there's no like being a citizen anymore. to if you if you're not willing to completely like live on this like you know live in a courtroom basically and you know and be evict i guess it's not really i'm making it's not like it's not like make a deal but you know i'm saying if you're not willing to like go with a mat and like destroy your

life to like and like hey evict me and like you know wait a year to affect you because it's hard to evict people then if you just try if you're just trying if you're just trying not like get screwed uh good luck you know that's the thing oh the tenants have all the right you They don't know of psychotic tenants have all the rights. People have nothing to lose. You try doing that. You try doing that as somebody who has a job, who has a stake in society, and they will burn you at the cross. It doesn't work that way.

You have to throw, you want to throw your life away. That's who succeeds. The people who are on Wall Street should be in jail and vice versa, you know, and they will be. They rotate. They don't mind going to jail. You ever notice that? Those people don't mind going to jail, people make a lot of money. So they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, freaking, they'll buy their way through jail.

And then they'll, you know, they'll make their ramen soup and they'll pay off people to fight for them. And, and the fights, you know, the big fights in jail. It's fun when you're in money. When you steal a lot of money from people, I mean, like, you know, when you're a stock, you're crypto, whatever these people are, people who figure out to, you know, how to grind money out of people. You can just, like, in jail, you can just buy lives. It's amazing. You try to go into jail.

You see how that goes for you. You'll be eating that weird puck of that's the horse shit. They fucking, they match together like the oats and, and like, you know, what they call those, those disgusting spaghetti pies to punish you.

They'll make you eat that. All right. You're not going to be, you know, this is going to be good fellows. It's a goddamn gauntlet. the point is though it's not it's about getting you to just shut up to play nice they they want to basically you know people talk about China with their credit score these Chinese China social credit score you know what do you think real estate is becoming I mean you you

try to oh I don't like you know talking about fucking you know um be on the wrong side of the news you know, be outspoken, you know, do a strong-arm robbery and get caught. All of a sudden, you're not a good tenant. You know, all of a sudden, they want to tell you that you can't fucking live, you know, in a place with people, with a garbage shoot, you know. You have to carry, you know, you have to, you have to basically live like in a basement that floods if you're lucky. You have to move somewhere.

That's how they, this, well, here's this thing. this goddamn. This is the guy we've talked about a few weeks ago in the show is Caleb Hammer. I've told people to not get a house and they're really close to getting a house. That's something they will not give up because that's another obsession that we have in our country. So would you say not get a house today because of interest rates? It's just interest rates. The overall marketplace, S&P 500, it just beats real estate. Commercial real estate's good to get for tax advantages, but the American dream isn't owning a home anymore. It's the freedom of renting because you can live wherever you want. You can move for a job like that.

Getting in a house, you're stuck in a house. It requires a massive amount of money for a down payment. And it's just a lack of flexibility in a generation in age where people want to be more flexible. I don't know what he's talking about. I don't know where you get this idea that we're all just, you can move for. What job can you move for? What are you talking about? You know, you can move for a job like that. And the good news is there are no jobs. we've destroyed all the jobs of AI. So, I mean, you know, good luck having your flexibility. What do you think?

Like, you know, Cleveland's not going to have AI? You can move to Cleveland doesn't have computers, so you can go clean toilets in Cleveland. So, you know, hey, stupid, you were dumb for buying a house. People talk about, like, well, you don't know. Because you pay a lot more rents a lot of the time. People complain about this. You go, why do you have to have a certain,

whatever, you know, like, let's say, let's see your rent is three grand. You can get an apartment for three grand, much easier than you get approved for a mortgage, where the payment would be three grand or even two grand, right? And what's the logic of that? And people go, well, that's not, that's not the whole cost. The whole cost is, you know, the total cost of ownership, the maintenance, there's the, you know, there's the taxes, all the shit. And that's, like, that's real.

you know, people do get, you know, distracted by that. It's a real thing. But here's the thing. When you rent, I mean, look, maybe it doesn't happen in Cleveland.

Maybe I should fucking move to Cleveland. But in New York, my rent went up like $1,000 over the course of four years. So where's this goddamn, what are we talking about here? Yeah, this idea like, oh, you're,

you'd be locked in. You'd be locked in. you could invest that money in a goddamn S&P. Who the fuck is to? Look, yes, people invest money. I'm not an idiot. But this idea that, like, you know, well, you could take that money,

that you can invest it and, like, well, your kid gets sick, your car breaks down. People, like, this idea that you're just going to have, like, this fucking, your rent doesn't go up. This idea that you always have a steady stream of money

to, like, invest in the SP 500. It's a goddamn, I might, I'm not even saying, like, you, the asset is a precepting. is the point the point is just you're not you're not become holding the fucking you know this Politburo this goddamn you know whatever was that is that what they called it in Russia the people who you know I mean they had they had houses they had nice houses you try to get one of those nice DACA's the doc is a mansion what am I thinking of

they had these like these better houses they were built right better apartments but you have to fucking be in a party or you know for no something I don't know anyone. If I was in Soviet Russia, I would just be in a gulag and then I'd be digging and they would just be, you know, people would be pissing on my feet. And then I would just get like enraged. And then they were, you know, and then they were like, you know, try. The guards were they think I started to fight.

I would always be misunderstood in the gulag. Speaking of gulags, if you like Kump, if you want to support Kump, you know, like and subscribe to video. comment on here. Comment about the new studio. You know, do you see any differences? Can you spot,

play where's Waldo? You know, talk about your apartment situation. Tell me why I'm so wrong and how, you know, I should be thankful to apply to a panel, to a death panel to get to live in a nice apartment with a garbage shoot. But also,

Ain't that a lovely, lovely thing, right? That's a great, you know, no additional cost. So what, you know, this is the only place you get in a value. You're not getting a value at the hospital. I'll tell you that much. The hospital's going to, you know, it doesn't matter if they save your son's life or not. You're not getting the good price at the hospital, but you get a good price of comp. Because, you know, I value you.

I you know it's like a hardware store that's good but it's podcast uh so yeah check that out it's such a it's such a it's such a why i mean look who wouldn't want to live in the sewer versus this who wants to have to like you know negotiate uh to live anymore it's crazy you know these people it never stops it's like you know it takes weeks and months to get approved and it's just it's It's degrading and it's a way, it's a soft control. It's like, you know, it's a way of, like, good luck start a revolution. You know, a bunch of guys. I don't know.

Am I revolutionary? No, because I want to live in an apartment. So I can't, I have to say no. I have to go to, if I want to plan anything, which I don't, I'm all on plan is my own Keystina era, which I, I never had one, all right. Is that cultural appropriation? I don't care. It seems really fun.

I like to have a Keynesoniera in the sewer for myself and my friends. If you don't know, it's like a, it's like a tweet 16, but it's for the... Hey, y'all, it's Kelly Clarkson with Wayfair. Ever order furniture online and wonder what if? Like, what if it doesn't hold up? That sofa was four days old. You should have ordered from Wayfair.

With Wayfair, there's no what if. Just style you love and quality you can trust. Visit Wayfair.ca. Wayfair, every style, every home. I guess the Hispanic, I don't know what the terminology is. cultures they do it at 15 i didn't do it at 15 i didn't have a sweet 16 or a cancin era but you get the the glass slippers like cinderella i mean i'm not like trans i'm not looking to get like the cross dress but it's you know get me glass shoes get me just throw me a party but i don't

like a regular party i want like a nice debut time ball kind of thing i want i want to fucking enter society what's wrong with that what's wrong with that is a trump's ufc fight it's the White House combines pensions and politics. This is the dome. They should, and Trump's like, they're saying he's trolling, but he's talking about leaving this up. This, like, oh, we're going to leave up the, I don't know what you call it.

Is this a dome? Is it the fucking construction continues on a temporary arena? I call it the U.S., the Freedom 250 fight dome. That's just my name for it. U.S. President Trump is bringing his affinity from mixed martial arts to the White House, staging a night of cage fighting on the South lawn. 80th birthday as far, you know, I think this is great.

I think this is, this should be part of the government. This should be how you resolve disputes at the Supreme Court. You should have, it's like a coliseum. You should have to fight your family. You should have to fight, you know, like your landlord. Maybe this is how we do housing lotteries from now on. And look, I'm not saying that we use AI because the government's talking about, you know, pumping their AI use up, right?

Trump announced that this week or pegseth we're going to use more AI natural security which just means you know they're gonna I guess that means that you know

they're going to be chatbots are going to be radicalizing and entrapping people online that's a new gimmick that's so that you freeze up you know the agents to do you know

false flags I guess uh U.S. President Trump has bringing his own affinity from mixed martial arts I don't know. I feel like, you know, you should be able to

match up people. Like, you know what I mean? You shouldn't have to like, I'm not saying, like me, I would fight like a, you know, like a bantam weight, you know, fast guy. You fight someone like,

not your dad per se, but someone like you, you know, relatively. That's what we can use AI for. Because, you know, it'll be good. Remember how fight club, everyone got kind of motivated

to get in shape and, even you were like oh we trim our nails now and like you know because you know you want to get i mean i have this thing you see this you know it's you know see his finger nail you see this right this is uh like a cuticle thing it's like a thing with the um what you call it i don't know what you call it it's like a hangnail or something hurts like hell i'd like i need to get a cuticle trimmer i mean if i was part of some kind of you know national fight call and again i'm not trying to recreate the movie Fight Club. But it'd be nice if we friggin, you know,

got like a good way to kind of get everyone in shape, everyone motivated. And like, you know, when you beat, when you beat your kids up on, you know, but it's part of the government or you beat up your neighbor, it's a good way. Everyone kind of, when you get in a fight, everyone becomes friends afterwards, right?

Or they do a school shooting. I don't know. it used to be that you would become friends with the people if you stood up to a bully if you were getting bullied I mean I didn't become friends with the guy when you know he was like you know I'm not gonna say I was bullied per se

but he was yeah giving me shit and I said I was going you know come you know come in his house in the you know shoot myself on his front lawn uh you know he didn't have a response to that he kind of you know that's

but my point we didn't become friends after that but I didn't really fight them. If I should have, instead of doing that, I should have just, you know, maybe I should have just actually, um, what's the word? Like got,

you know, because he was like, I think he was like a hockey player or something. He was, he was, yeah, it would, it would hurt short term,

um, perhaps, you know, maybe I would want, who knows. Um, so we didn't become friends. I didn't have that kind of,

you know, like, oh, my bully, again, it wasn't my bully, it wasn't my bully. It was a, you know,

whatever. It was a, conflict. That's that you know, now they just have school shootings. So it's kind of killed the whole mechanism. And that's the problem with the, with, and why does that happen? I don't know. Because, you know, you just get, you know, you open Pandora's box and then things have come out. You know, you can't put it back in. Or again, maybe it's a sub-Kelcher. I'm sorry. I'm not, I'm not trying and make everything in conspiracy, but it's like, you know, no, it's just all random.

It's all random. It's randomly one day people just started doing it a lot. And it happens all the time now. But it doesn't seem to happen. Are we still having them? Or they slow down? I haven't heard about one recently. I hope it, you know, knock on wood.

Maybe they've slowed down. Maybe they just stopped. I've always said stop reporting on them. Because, you know, people just get, you know, it gets the idea of it. If that's what they're doing, good. And I'm actually, I'm actually a bad guy. I should, you know, I should keep it out of my mouth.

You know, I should be quiet. Anthropic is the guys, the guy with the curly hair, right? Argenito, Daria Arginito. They keep coming out and going, oh, our shits, you should ban us. You know, Antropic urges AI labs to pause development warns humans risk losing control. we're going too quick. Here's what this means to me. When they start saying this shit,

this is the best indicator that this shit don't work. Because these guys, no one starts designing AI. You wouldn't have started doing it if you were worried about this. I mean, a human being would be worried about this, but these guys aren't even. They're not good people. No one's going to convince me.

I'm not saying necessarily that working on AI makes you a bad person. I'm saying the guys who start AI companies like the five you know the five guys who have these big AI company there's no way you start that like you know the people who had any reservation about it they didn't lead the pack you don't lead the pack on something that could destroy humanity well someone's gonna do it and I'll do it in the group

no you won't I mean look at this this guys this guys they let's just say they were doing it in a good way and this is their way going like, hey, this is going to work? What's this going to do? No, no one would think this would work. It's this, oh, androbics urging AI's to pause. What you talk?

Best case, this is just that they screwed up in their R&D or not R&D even, but like, you know, they miscalculated how many, how much compute to invest in. And so now they're, they're actually, I've heard this before about them. I, you know, don't, you know, quote me on this. I don't get sued by the benevolent AI company. But some people have speculated that basically Anthropics screwed up their overall estimate

and that, you know, you have to build these things out like you're planning for years at a time. And it's becoming almost trillions of dollars, you know, a cycle or it's going to be soon. They're like, you know, build these data centers out. Holy shit. And they were to, you know, and if you screw up, if you build too much and doesn't get used,

then you're screwed to, and you go out of business, because everyone's hyper-leveraged. Anthropic may be a little too conservative, and now they can't compete. I mean, they were the top dog. All of a sudden, everyone, everyone hates their shit. Everyone thinks their shit smells like ass.

And I know, hey, slow down, slow it down. Let's take it. Let's take a breather. Never listen to that. Never listen to people who tell you fucking try to, you know, it's like that out of this shrugged shit. You know, it's, I mean, I'm not like a nine-rand, the junkie, but you know,

people try to use the government when they can't compete when they screw up. So that's what that's, I mean, let's see what they say. And so why because AI could soon improve without even intervention. I mean, this shit isn't that, like, where is this stuff? Where is all this shit that's so good?

It's not, I mean, we had this AI war that we're fighting. How's that going well? This is like one of the worst wars we've ever had. We've done nothing good with this. I mean, they've used they've leveraged AI to fight this Iran thing and like

it's an unending nightmare. And you go, well, no, don't don't blame the AI companies. They, you know, they targeted that school on purpose. I mean, I don't know what to tell you. Like, it hasn't helped,

is my point. Where is the payoff? Where's the goddamn payoff for any of this? If it's so good. They're just firing people. There's nothing. When has been produced?

I mean, you're going to show me. I mean, everyone's talking about these new movies coming out. Like, you know, it was the obsession. Good movie. I saw it. So back rooms. Didn't love it. The trailer looked great movies.

All right. About hype. You know, whatever. It's fine. But I don't think it's AI, right? That's not AI. Where's the great big AI movie that everyone loves? Where's it?

Where's the AI? I mean, what's it doing besides giving people an excuse to fire people? I'm not saying he's doing nothing but this idea that oh it's gonna is it gonna improve on us oh it's not improving with the people building it like isn't maybe this will actually do something if you you know isn't the whole point to be a singularity that's the other thing these guys keep talking about this age with uh is it a gai it's a or artificial general intelligence right and the whole point the whole point is a very curse wild horseshit we're supposed to be, you know, that at some point, machines start improving themselves, and then it starts getting good.

So, which I'm always skeptical about. I think, you know, when they say it's going to start getting good, I feel like I'm going to be in a ditch. I'm, you know, that's fine. I mean, I'm not going to, like, you know, I'll fight. I'll fight. I'll try to fight my way out of the ditch. But, I mean, I'm just saying, like, I'm not going to feel, like, universally unjust.

It'll be, you know, who am I? Am I better than the people have been throwing ditches for many centuries? I don't feel like me getting thrown into a ditch and someone, you know, and people shooting me. It's some great, you know, I don't think I deserve it less than people who got before. That being said, but yeah, on the other side of it, maybe, maybe it's good. Maybe they'll, the robots will fix each other. They'll, you know, they'll make me a fucking coffee cul-a-law.

they'll teach me to read Japanese so I can read manga and I can read if I can read the dragon I've seen the Dragon Ball anime I'd love to read the original manga manga is what they call comic books in Japan

and read right to even if you learn Japanese is incredibly hard you have to read right to left I mean I just can't do it I try to learn in Japanese not to read manga but I try to learn in Japanese

I had this idea that I would go to Tokyo and like be a man in Tokyo and like, oh, look at this. Look at this ramen place. And look at that cool, what's that? Cherry trees and shit. And just be a real fucking international man. I tried that fucking duo lingo shit.

Terrible. I mean, I'm not just, for me, maybe you can do, you know, there's so many characters, so many Japanese characters. So goddamn miserable. So, you know, if an AI could, like, you know, maybe they could, like,

like spiders could, like, lay eggs in my brain with nanomachine spiders and like make these memories of me speaking Japanese right why not that why doesn't why doesn't no one talk about that kind of shit it's all just like you'll be able to you know recline in a hammock and drink lemonade or some shit while like your job gets destroyed and your and your kids you know basically have to become like you know I mean I should get into HVAC I need an air conditioner I mean honestly if it's If I'm a little off, it's goddamn hot in here. Sorry, I'm not even worried about it.

It's fucking hot as hot. I have to get ACs installed in this new place. I have a fan running very low. I should have studied HVAC. It's fucking, that's what you need to, you know, but that's the thing. It's like, you know, even NASA. I mean, are they going to take it out of it over?

What am I talking about? It's a little hot in here. I'm sorry. Scott Pelly. We don't torture people. College Sheikh Mohammed. Don't torture. Waterboarding.

We do not, I don't talk about techniques. Pelly was fired out. I mean, we go back of, this is so. And until this past. That's George Tennant, the CIA director of the 2000s during the Iraq war and whatnot. Scott Pelly. We don't torture Pete. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.

We don't torture. Waterboarding. He's like a late night host. Not, I don't talk about techniques. These guys are funny, I don't know what that, like that kind of all shucks. It's kind of like William H. Macy kind of vibe. like, hey, waterboarding. Like, Jake Mohammed.

Tyler, Sheikh Mohammed is. I mean, it's past week, Scott Pelly. We don't torture people. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. We don't torture. Waterboarding. I mean, this is great. I mean, this is, uh, he was fired from, uh, 60 minutes, um, by Baron Weiss because

I'm not sure. I mean, I, I was going to look into that. And then I, uh, I just got distracted by that, by that, uh, by that. but I guess here political influence that I had never seen in 37 years

at CBS News I mean I'm gonna break down the guy got fired because he wouldn't go along with a horse ship Barry well I mean like

Barry they're claiming it's not but he's claiming that basically you know he's never seen a news division go harder for administration which you probably everyone knows what this is No one puts Barry Weiss in charge because they want, like, I mean, she doesn't even do news.

She's like a blogger. I'm not even going to entertain this like, oh, yeah, it's like, oh, we don't do that. We're actually, like, come on. It's the point of the whole Barry Weiss and CBS thing is not to like get away with it. It's to shove it in your face and go, no, no, no, you thought the news was one thing. this is actually we're shoving or tainting your face that's what that move is

and good for her which you made a hundred million dollars I mean you know is it good for the country no it's the end of the country it's fine you know someone's got a profit I guess so good for Barry Weiss but you know what we're not going to pretend like this is a debate about

oh no these are actually standing they're just they want that's their way of telling you to shut the fuck up shut the fuck up Scott Pellet, this isn't going to be something where you come and come and tell George Tennant, you know, you start playing these games like, you know, what are you ward-boarding people? Get out of here, you're at. That's the whole thing. There's no more.

They've undid the news. I used to like the news. I used to like the fucking idea of journalism. No, or a lot of them bullshit. Sure. Yeah. I think Scott Pelley is, you know, he's a fun guy, though. he's a fun guy and uh i feel no i feel sorry no he's i'm sure he's got plenty of money he's the thing

these guys that make some they're 60 minutes these guys are making cash he'll he'll do fine he got sick of it you when you're like 65 years old you have it you have this gig it's like if you watch the movie broke it with um network there's a great great movie but also the the quieter parts of network william holding his parts you know he's an older guy you know when when when shit starts getting rough he's like fuck you i don't need that this shit, I'll just quit. I'm like, I'm in my 60.

People who do this shit into their 60s, it's like, it's a good job. They build their career. They like what they're doing. They have these great jobs. They respect. You know,

they speak to the country. But, you know, it's not like they need to do it. They have plenty of money. And, you know, am I saying, like, who cares? Like, it's a big story.

I mean, also whatever. I mean, the idea of, I thought, I thought when she got in charge, like, they fired all these people. Or Leslie,

What's the Lusie Stahl doing? I mean, you've been around, how long did that go to happen? A year ago? Six months ago, he's still, like, wait, wait, wait, what do you, uh, just quit? You should have quit in the first place. I'm sure they tried to, like, tell you to do shit. Always just quit. I always quit jobs, you know, as soon as I can.

Never, it never gets better. Like, you know, when you, when you, you, you, you, the point of a job is to burrow into it. It's to kind of like, you know, do as little as work as possible. get over, you know, the fucking, just kind of fly under the radar, but also like, you know, they take three hour lunches. And when they bring someone new in, whether it's to like, you know, tighten up the budget, or to, you know, repivit the organization or to, you know, silence dissidents in America, regardless of the reasons, it's just never, it's never worth sticking around.

It's never worth, like, you know, what you get, what do you get a fucking, uh, ingratiate yourself to Barry Weiss. And now it's like, what is? It's just, is you going to write a book now? You should have made a big thing a year ago or six months, whenever this was. And just said, fuck this. I'm going to, I'll shit myself.

I'll come to work and shit myself every day. How about that? I'll make this place so fucking disgusting. I'll make it a goddamn biohazard. I will fucking make people puke. I'll just stop showering. You know, if I said this, they'd be like this, you know, you're a fucking pig. But I mean, Scott Pelley's going to put together a guy.

You know, he's older, you know, salt pepper hair. And he's got this like, you know, winning smile. If he starts not showering and shit and pissing himself, it's, it can be nice, right? It can be a fucking, it can be a real, like, stick it to them, you know, because no one wants that. I don't care if you're, if you're just like a lackey, if you're a toady for, you know, whoever the guys who run CBS now. was the Ellison's what does or what did the Oracle do I know what Microsoft did Apple did what did Oracle do they made this money what did they make phones like

AI phones look this up these guys you know this guys who own CBS Larry Ellison started Oracle I think it's like a business to business thing what is Oracle the weird name right it's like the matrix of the company all right they made the they make the Java the databases The foundation of the most famous product is the Oracle Database, a system used by large corporations, is securely store, manage, and retrieve massive amounts of structured data. And now they run the news.

So that makes sense. Enterprise software, cloud AI. I think, you know, enterprise software, it's like, you spend all this time worrying about, oh, yeah, Mac, get a PC, and, like, you really should have worried about, like, them. and like some microsystems maybe. The people who like, you know, we don't even care.

Like what, you know, we sell the people who have like, you know, budgets and like don't aren't just, I mean, I guess they're just certain thing, but like they don't have to like do design.

You go into like one of these like most corporate places. It's not like, you know, oh, do you have this, does this come in like multiple colors like the IMA? No. It's a fucking ugly box.

And it fucking just tracks people's health data. And we use it to deny them coverage. It makes you, you know, it makes you money. You know, I would like the different colors, though. Can you, can you, can you just pull, can you get a candy apple red while I'm denying, you know, some kid's cancer medication? They might have. I mean, look, if I wonder if I worked at Oracle, when I went to, like, I went to Larry Ellis. It probably wouldn't be Larry Ellison and probably be some other guy.

They go, hey, so they're asking for this, like, fucking, they want the colors, like, like the Mac. And, you know, shut the fuck up. We don't do that. Like, yeah, I know, but like, where are they going to go? I know, but what's the harm? You know, we're making these things in batches. Why not just give them, you know? But they would say, they were fired me and say on the way out.

You don't understand your piece of shit. It's about saying no. It's about making people accept what we say. And I would go, look, I was just, I'm just a people pleaser. I'm just a fucking people pleaser. I want to give them a guy. But that's who oracles. That's who owns the news.

A little chaotic. Speaking of other news, this is Trump. It's four days and they aren't even close to coming up with it. You know why they're doing that? Because they're cheating on the election. Do you have evidence to support that? All I have to do is look. All I have to do is look.

But that's not evidence. And I listen to people and let's see what happens. But, sir, that's not evidence. Do you think it's appropriate that they count the votes in California? Do you think it's appropriate that they have an election and five days? later they're nowhere close to pick you local officials acknowledge they are slow they're urging no they're crooked

they're urging the votes to be counted quickly that's how they vote in California just like you're crooked your press is crooked and meet the press is crooked to be fair I'm not crooked but let's really when you play right into their hands in you're either crooked or you're stupid I mean honestly this is this is a bit of press I guess there's

that noise is the rain there's some kind of dumpster I mean a dumpster no there's some kind of bar I guess was John Deere Try I mean I don't know what this fucking performance But I mean why is no one I get that like you know

They're professionals But at this point I would never let him talk to me like that If I was a journalist And he starts saying you're crooked You're dumb You're the dumb I think you fat piece of shit Who are you talking to?

Who do you think you're talking to you fat turd Oh yeah you're fat too Yeah fuck you're present You shouldn't be as fat as me I mean just just why no one never stand up for themselves. You know, this idea, like, oh, I'm going to refute what you're saying with facts.

No, hey, you disgusting animal. Don't talk to me like that. I wouldn't, I wouldn't let a guy at Basket Robbins that I worked for talking to me like that. I guess that makes sense. Right, no, but no, I'm saying, like, I'm saying, like, I'm not a journalist, I'm not like a credential person. You know, these people just take shit.

How good is it being a, No one respects journalists anymore. I'm not saying they shouldn't or they should. I don't know. What do they do? They made vaccines. They sold them? I don't know.

Everyone's very mad about the vaccine. They just think, I think, look, I think it might be overstated how often they were lying. But these people, but that chick, this chick is probably, she does seem kind of shade, you know. Look, Trump is obviously, like, lying in this case. But, you know, there's always something smart. That being said, like, why didn't she stick out? Why don't you say, hey, you disgusting trash, man. You trash piece of shit.

Piss yourself and shit. I always shit myself. You smell that? I just shit myself. You asshole. Oh, look at me. I'm telling you facts. Jerry Seinfeld Trump. We're like a third world country. Your elections are crooked, and you're crooked, and Mr. Press is crooked,

and so is ABC and CBS and CNN. Your one-sided crooked networks. Let's call it quits, because I've had enough. Thank you, darling. Mr. President, let's please, I travel all the way to Wisconsin. I travel all the way to Wisconsin. I don't know what you think.

This is a guy who's like, you know, he's basically, he's spurious claiming that, you know, elections are being stolen, whatever. He's not providing evidence. All this shit. And you go, I'm, I'm fucked us. I'm out. Oh, Mr. Trump, I came from Wisconsin.

You don't understand. I travel away. Well, no, I traveled to Wisconsin. How could you do this to me? It's a crazy I mean, maybe she's just trying to cope. I've had enough. Thank you, darling.

Have a good time. Mr. President, let's please, I travel all the way to Wisconsin. I know. I travel all the way to Wisconsin. I mean, it's not even that big. Is that big a deal of travel to Wisconsin? Where is she from D.C.?

I mean, part of the job, right? You travel places. No, I travel, I traveled to Wisconsin. You can't, you shouldn't do it either way. I mean, it's bigger than Wisconsin. he shouldn't be walking out or an interview like this after just basically you know slight

pushback this thing is rigged so rigged the election is so rigged and like well how was it rigged it just is Bob's rigged has ever been I'm gonna go but I went to Wisconsin

people just like they have no ability to like deal with conflict on the fly that's why these you have we should have these UFC things like more not just for fighters like have the people involved because people got to learn to like you know um when something happens you just start screaming and make a scene and just kind of be disgusting um yeah it's like yeah again what's he was he's gonna hit her on tv oh she's a woman she can't yes she can i mean she'll get some flack but i mean

what's her job why is it so good about her like what is she she's on meet the press What do they make? They make like half a million dollars? Everyone makes so much money. I always assume these people don't make that much money, but she must make so much money. It's fucking, you know, no one, no one doesn't think cool. No one ever just says, don't fucking talk to me.

Don't fucking, who's, I mean, like, you're, you have the cameras. That's the thing. You own, I mean, not you, NBC does, but I mean, like, you know, they'll air it. Look, the people, the apparatus is not a fan of Trump. I mean, they want to play, you know, they won't, you know, they want to play the game maybe more maybe more than the first term right i don't know like he gets plenty of shit in the press these are you know but they're definitely over the years i mean look

i'm not trying to hem and hall here i'm just i guess that they're trying to dance you know maybe her boss would be mad at her but i feel like it would go viral i feel if she just said you fat piece of shit don't you talk to me like as she starts doing like snapping i can't snap my fingers they're too fat I'm sweaty. But, you know, but she starts doing that. I go, don't you talk to me like that. I'll, I'll make you, I mean, she can't threaten the president. That's the thing.

I would, I would pull my thing. I'll jump in front of this juncture and I'll, I'll be dead. And then people will blame you, Mr. President. Anything of that? I'll just, I'll just let this tractor run over me. You know, you bring his tractor as a prop. Well, now my, my dead head's a prop. That's, you know, he probably wouldn't care.

He go, good. Good. this guy is a fucking fat guy asking me questions he's fucking jumping in front of a tract and now he's dead couldn't be happier SpaceX IPO running a two times

oversubscribes I don't know what this means even uh oversubscribed uh SpaceX is drawing investor demand about 150 billion for oh so it's not it's not a trillion but a lot it's a big that's for 150 billion for an IPO it's a lot of money

um what even is SpaceX gonna be It's like it's going to be I was thinking like when they're going to have people basically say they're going to be a monopoly like they're going to be the only like you're investing in like the only thing in space right? And I'm thinking like

are you guys really thinking like it's wailing Newtonie or something from alien? Like it's like they're going to do the freight like there's nothing to ship right? We're going to ship iron ore back from the moon or something I mean if they have that it just doesn't seem like i mean i get stock prices go i mean the whole the whole economy is a stock scam just about stocks going up right but i mean uh it doesn't seem like and then i'm looking into it

and i'm realizing a lot oh because the internet shit you know the um the the sky what they call they call it a stupid thing they're the sky the sky debt thing they're uh starlink they have to start lots of people who have to explain why they own it rather than justifying this to buy it, the hedge bunch of manager. I mean, what they're going to do? So Starlink is big. The road show presentation emphasizes the uniqueness of SpaceX's rocket launch of business,

which they're accounting for the lion's share of mass loft into orbit in the past three years and the stringular company. They're just big as satellites, and they're responsible for the, you know, Starlink. And that's pretty chilling. You know, people, I think people have this idea of Starlink, right?

Where it's like, oh, well, you're not tethered, right? You have internet wherever you go, and it's kind of freeing. And that sounds like a nice idea, I guess, in theory. It's going to be weird when, like, you know, no one likes to think about how, you know, how good it is to have, like, a local internet provider, your local municipality, right?

Comcast, whatever the fuck. Spectrum. How can working at your local Tims take you further? Sure, you can level up your teamwork skills. You also get a chance to receive a Tim Horton's scholarship award. Ready for what's next? Apply today at careers.timhorans.ca. BIOS. But you know, it's hard.

When you have like a million different, you know, little things to control, it's just there's a level of like, you know, if you, to make this point, I'll just make the ultimate point, which is like, you know, hey, if everyone just starts using SpaceX, well, then it's just one thing you shut down. One thing you filter, right?

Does that sound good? That's not like a great idea in this age of internet uh, it seems kind of to me a little crazy to like, you know, be so eager. for this goddamn wireless internet stream

that we can just be shut down I mean look I get Alam Musk is a very normal cool guy who has no this guy you know it's like it's like having Walter Cronkite in charge of a company really really like a character

a lot of character that being everyone could be corrupted everyone can be corrupted I think no one's really paying attention to this um everything this is the problem stocks no one

I mean yeah you make money here they'll just inflate the current you know oh you make a few bucks here a few bucks there just inflate the currency right they'll shut they'll just fucking have a war

uh that they and all of a sudden there's you know the dollar is worth nothing and you're big your big gains or fucking you know what happened to them what happened to your big gains

what happened to doge coin I mean I'm actually asking I don't know Bitcoin's not doing great right should I buy Bitcoin I don't know maybe I'll buy some Bitcoin, not financial advice. By dramatically reducing the cost of access to space, we've been able to expand our mission to address some of the Earth's most pressing challenges,

including bridging the digital divide by aiming to connect over 3 billion, 3 billion unconnected people to the internet. So three people, you realize how badly the internet's ruined every? I mean, what are you going to tell me? You're going to tell me the fucking, you know, the pills are cheaper now? You can get oxy cotton cheaper. Actually, you got to ship your house. The Amazon there.

Look, this social media shit, this fucking, uh, uh, surveillance shit. They, they're,

they're ringing us dry. And now we, now we can bring this to Africa and India, whatever, whoever doesn't happen. Nepal, right? The,

the, the, the, the, the, the, the, can be,

can be, fucking X.com. They can talk about Sidney's whinies tits. That's what they're missing. Getting into fights about Sydney, Sweeney, tits. I actually think she's, I think she's mid. I think sweetie Sweeney's some fucking guy who's like the Dalai Lama. That's a

Dalai Lama. The guy, you know, the guy two levels down on the Dalai Lama is going. I think she thinks Sidney's mid. I don't have, I don't engage in sex, but carnal sex. But if I did, I wouldn't put my monk dick. I mean, is that wrong to say? Am I being degrading? Don't talk about, I am a Buddhist monk. You shouldn't talk about my dick. All right, fair enough. But you guys, you guys. what I'm saying. I'm not looking at it.

I mean, look, well, what now comes pulling punches on brutalist monks? Maybe that's fair. I mean, some people say they were very mean. Maybe it's Chinese propaganda, but those brutal monks were very mean to the people in Tibet. And so, Bet, and Freedom concerts when I was a kid, or in the 90s and shit,

and raising against a machine. And then you hear, like, oh, actually, like, you know, those people, those monks back when there was like, you know, before communism, they were, like, brutal to the poor people. Which doesn't, I mean, it sounds crazy of that's true, but who knows? Again, that could very well be, you know, Chinese communist propaganda.

It's all game, it's all life is just about evaluating. And it doesn't sound like, I mean, honestly, like, without doing more research, doesn't sound like monks. I thought the whole thing was, you know, you think monks are nice to poor people, but actually monks, there's two different types of monks, I guess. There's monks who, like, help people, uh, across all religions. There's monks who kind of just, you know, we just go live in a pious. live a pious life in the woods or in the mountain.

And you'd be surprised sometimes how little they want to help people. Again, not exclusive to Tibetan monks. I'm talking about all kinds of monks, all religions. That monk life is sometimes just kind of an antistocity. They want to read, they want to read, you know, maybe they're researching or they're reading Garfield comics. When did Garfield start? I just love those books.

I should get some Garfield. books or eBay the old one. I remember Garfield goes to Hawaii. I used to love that. You don't actually make me happy to have that, I think. Like, I'm not nostalgic about a lot, but Garfield, Hawaiian Garfield, they were so colorful.

They were printed on this kind of nice, glossy stock. It was a scholastic book fair thing. I love Garfield. I don't know if it holds up. I know it's not the best shit, probably. I have seen those weird videos. maybe we'll talk about some you know on the patrons there's those videos where the guy

uh the garfield video the guy dresses up like garfield it's the whole thing we'll talk about on the on patreon this week i'll yeah we'll do that uh it's too it's too big to get into right now but the point is uh these monks i don't know i don't know what's going on uh this is this is last what's this go to do. Texas grid flags risks as data centers crypto sites fail voltage tests. Several large data centers and crypto facilities

planning to connect to the Texas power grid ahead of peak summer demand that failed key reliability tests raising the risk of power outages this electricity uses. I mean, this is kind of boring story, but yeah, they're just, you know, they lied to you. Like, oh, no, it's fine.

What you're building these data centers? Are they going to be using it? No, we're actually going to have more power. It doesn't seem like that would be true. We seem to we have less power. They're going to use our resources. No, we're going to build infrastructure, power infrastructure. They go where the power infrastructure is.

They steal, this is really people, I mean, some people think they're prisons, right? Some people think that what are in these data centers, or these actually like many prisons, which would be kind of crazy. Imagine if like every server was a kind of a weird like sarcophagus that you would put a person into like a standing prison, like a Supermax prison. And you didn't get out of it. And it's just like it's like it's like, you know, they hook up tubes to your front and back and your mouth. You know, piss shit and food. And then and like and that powers the server.

I mean, look, I don't even, I feel uncomfortable saying this because actually this sounds like something though like. they'll actually do. And if you do, please pay me. I don't want this to happen, but if it does, at least let me get, but we all have to, you're going to have to come to terms. No one's going to get clean pay days,

you know, coming soon. Pay days are going to be problematic by your very nature. So, you know, you're going to have to grapple every time you, if you make any kind of big bag, generational run. So, look, I mean,

if they, use like will I feel bad if they use my prison idea? Well, depends who they put in there, right? If they're putting in the worst people I get who determines who the worst people. We never know, right? But you know, they put, you know, you know, like the long-allel serial killer into it. I won't feel bad.

Well, you shouldn't torture. I'm not tortured anyone. I just came up with an idea of the power servers with a person, like it's not like the matrix. But it's pretty, you know, well, I feel, I'll feel very bad if they start doing it the people who like oh you just came to the country illegally and we'll do that to you that's your punishment no that's not

the punishment's got fit to crime in order to be in order to have your shit and piss and whatever and your blood power server and I feel good and I'm okay with that you have to be like a serial killer you have to be a guy who like you know set people on fire maybe a home invader

you know nasty shit it can't just be like wow they took jobs away all right Like that's not you know that's that they can't be that I'm not even going to be feeling good if it's a tax evader You know or like a I mean maybe if you depend if you built a building that fell on people It depends how much of it was your fault Probably a lot you know If you're an architect and you design building and it just collapses on someone

I get I I I don't want judge those people because I could see myself doing that if I had a job like that I had a job like that you know you just have a bad day you hung over and you're fucking you know you screw up whatever the thing the cross beam and all of a sudden you know fucking hospital collapses um i don't want to be you know you know what those who live you know without sin in a glass house uh cast a first stone right so whatever i'm just saying i'm just saying it's a great time I don't know what I'm talking about so the power look it's all good I need an AC in here it's very hot muggy um but we did it I mean we're here I was there you know it was a it was a stressful week and moved earlier in a week but getting you know I mean honestly

it looks it looks decent it looks almost like if I didn't mention it you might not notice I mean so I think there's some slight difference like a you know maybe hammering down but you body didn't notice unless you were, you know, your real, uh, got a real critical eye. So, you know, um, thanks so much for tuning in and for listening to watch a comp and support and competent. You know, like and subscribe, tell your friends, you know, all about everything. Tell them what I did. And, uh, you know, Patreon.com slash Raycom, you got an extra episode every week. Uh, says that. And otherwise, I'll see you next week. We back next week with air conditioning. Onward and upward.

Have a great week.
