Hello the internet and welcome to this episode of sucked off into the sky by this trend nato that one courtesy of peanutty brown on the discord telling you uh thank you for bringing

twisters back up twisters um because it got us started all again brian the editor just watched it and he concurs with uh steven spielberg's note no kiss at the end leave the kiss wait it was i thought spielberg wanted the kiss no spielberg gave them the note to remove the oh hell yeah yeah sick dude that's what i'm talking about it's a movie i took it as they because they don't kiss but then their flight is delayed and they like walk hand in hand purposefully off to either like left up to one's imagination exactly it's a rorschach test yeah yeah find a tornado shelter like they probably know where all the tornado shelters are yeah you know what i mean a little miss their miscreants yeah of course of course they do

or they're just gonna go to go find that next tornado. Because they are... You can apparently just go find a tornado right now. You want me to find you a tornado? I'll go find you a tornado. Yeah. I'll get you three, man. Man, I'll get you three by 9pm tonight. Maybe more.

Of course. A reference to Miles' famous line that he just loves how people keep getting sucked off because that is in fact what happens what the action is you know the the air pressure the change i don't know what even say the change in air pressure yeah took took their their corpses took flight due to no they got sucked off into the sky and you showed tremendous restraint not using that phrasing when we were talking about that show uh the accident in which a moon bounce full of children yeah yeah well obviously that's i don't want to i don't want to make light of something that's a tragedy that's made up in a netflix film that's right yeah anyway um they don't go just like get the the thing doesn't just blow off into the sky

like up into the clouds like they have no no no no no people have died from moon bounces getting lifted off the ground and then like falling out of the moon bounce bro i saw there's a video that that's been on anybody who's on reddit or twitter enough spicing the video of like a little girl holding a kite and then gets pulled up into the air like no feet no luckily she has the grip strength of an american gladiator god damn because like it comes down and she's safe but the the sight of seeing people get airborne due to the wind yeah i use a scientific term there yeah the people getting airborne due to wind speed uh-huh that's yeah i will not i will not be flippant about that and children do have that grip strength man like that's the that's the thing about those fuckers like babies are born with tremendous grip strength

which the fact that we lose that evolutionarily needed that in the first place says a lot about how fucked up things used to be for for the human species to survive and you're just gonna need to hang right there for a little bit yeah you'll just have to dangle from this tree branch so the predators don't get you yeah yeah um and then you'll be okay you'll be okay um but anyways uh all right my name is jack that's miles uh these are some of the things that are trending twitter uh has been banned in brazil the whole damn nation of 215 million yeah yeah yeah whole thing nobody's getting it that's like something like 40 to 70 million users for twitter poof bye-bye gone can't use it all because elon musk is a free speech champion. Thank you. A free speech absolutist.

Okay. So when the Brazilian government is like, hey, man, you needed to take some of these accounts down. They're spreading disinformation. And he's like, go fuck yourself. Oh, go fuck yourself. Turns into like Keanu. I hate that it's kind of half Keanu because that's not Keanu's vibe. But anyway, as a result result it went into this back and

forth where then twitter also like removed their like legal representative that like that is it based in brazil who would answer to the court so basically the brazilian courts like oh so there's no one here to talk to adjudicate this or to for us to discuss this properly okay you're banned you're banned you're gone they do say that that is lula's uh famous catchphrase you're banned you're banned you're gone they do say that that is lula's uh famous catchphrase you're banned you're banned um but he what he was interviewed on cnn and was like yeah no fuck this guy the brazilian justice system may have given an important signal that the world is not obliged to put up with mus's extreme right wing. Anything goes just because he is rich.

Which, yeah. I feel like American politicians probably saw that and were like wait, you can just say that? You can't say that. That's a fucking death wish. Yeah, I think the other one another Supreme Court, because the reason it's in the news again is the Supreme Court of

Brazil upheld this other judge's decision. The other judge even took it to the Supreme Court to be like, I'm not tripping, right? And they unanimously were like, no, fuck this guy. And one of the justices said that the size of a bank account does not give rise to outlandish immunity.

That sounds about right. And there was even talk of people being fined for using VPNs to access it, although it wasn't clear how that could be enforced. The PUD used to be very popular in Brazil and recently has fallen off quite a bit. And so the stories from on the ground are like, people are like, yeah, I don't know, I don't really use that shit anyways anymore most a lot of people don't i mean you know aside from the tortured few of us that still insist on i think it's gonna get good again i think it's gonna get good again i just don't i

think elon can turn it around even with the nazis he's embracing i think he can turn it around but yeah it's uh like and then also like this has led to like starlink also having their assets frozen it's a whole thing like he's fucking around and finding out that they're the brazilian legal system a bit different than the very friendly one in the united states uh joker 2 folly adieu oh folly like nick axel folly yeah yeah Axel Folly. Diox. The Joker sequel, Joker 2, is out. It's getting reviews. Or it's not out. It was debuted at Venice or one of the film festivals. And the reviews are in and they are mixed.

Oh. Yeah. We don't know. I don't know. Some people seem to we don't know. I don't know. Some people seem to really like it. Some people don't. I'm always rooting for movies to be good. But I do just want to...

So it is a musical. It is? Doesn't even seem... Yeah, it is a musical. This is because it's got Lady Gaga, right? It's got Lady Gaga. All right. Joaquin Phoenix, who won an Academy Award for playing a musician.

So, you know, that sentence had music in it. And then I so but people were like, so what was the thinking behind making this a musical? So what was the thinking behind making this a musical? And Todd Phillips was like, I don't want to label Joker 2 a musical because, quote, most of the music in the movie is really just dialogue. It's just Arthur not having the words to say what he wants to say,

so he sings them instead because he doesn't know what a musical is i guess the music in the movie is dialogue and when the character doesn't have the words that he wants to say go off and sing which is the whole he sings the musical is there a musical definition just curious if we're on the same thing a play or movie in which singing and dancing play an essential part uh-huh uh-huh and that's the that's like the broadest definition and it feels like it's absolutely conforming to that okay it's a it's a musical so we'll get to see a movie uh that is a musical but is made by someone who has not seen a musical or wasn't even aware

of the concept of musicals existing which i think makes it more intriguing so maybe that's what he was going for uh yeah or maybe or is it just so bad like he quite literally can't find the words he's like i was like i just think that i love you and it's like he has to have the affect of singing it to distance himself from his true emotions thus protecting his ego from being vulnerable you know we don't know and that's what's so intriguing about charitable joker to uh french words because uh this guy arthur fleck, the star of Joker, guy's fucking twisted. So you don't really know what he's going to come with.

Dude, he'll sing off key, bro. He don't give a fuck. He doesn't give a fuck. But he's singing. Let's take a quick break. And we'll be right back with some election updates. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Forgive me for I have followed. Together, we'll be diving even deeper into the unbelievable stories behind 7M Films and LA-based Shekinah Church, an alleged cult that has impacted members for over two decades.

I'm Dr. Laurie Santos, host of the Happiness Lab podcast. As the U.S. elections approach, it can feel like we're angrier and more divided than ever. angrier and more divided than ever.

But in a new, hopeful season of my podcast, I'll share what the science really shows, that we're surprisingly more united than most people think. We all know something is wrong in our culture, in our politics, and that we need to do better and that we can do better. With the help of Stanford psychologist Jamil Zaki. It's really tragic. If cynicism were a pill, it'd be a poison. We'll see that our fellow humans, even those we disagree with, are more generous than we assume. My assumption, my feeling,

my hunch is that a lot of us are actually looking for a way to disagree and still be in relationship with each other. All that on the Happiness Lab.

And we're back. We're back.

Tim Walz. For some reason, I've gotten worse at pronouncing his name. Is it Walz's... For some reason, I've gotten worse at pronouncing his name. Is it Walsh? Walsh? Walsh. Yeah, Walsh. Tim Walz's second cousins are for Trump. So there.

Case closed, bitch. Yeah. Nice try, assholes. We got you. Even the vice presidential picks families for trump now there's a picture that says nebraska waltzes for trump and it's got uh i believe these are eight human beings yes um eight whites eight white whites with their nice custom t-shirts on um and like everyone's like oh my god tim waltz's mom came through and was like yeah these are his

second cousins and they're just like the conservatives it's like the conservative wing of the family so yeah i mean they've it's like they're in reaction to tim being a like tim waltz they're being like well now we're for trump they're like no these people have been always maggot out it's just now they can use their connection to tim walsh to probably up their cred locally if he's second if he can't even get his fucking second cousins to vote for him like what's even happening here um or maybe this is inevitable because he is like an actual midwestern person and every midwestern person's family uh is probably it's a grab bag a lot of political grab bag i mean i think most people's families are regardless you know what i mean like there's you're always gonna

have somebody who's on that side of the fence for the most part yeah so on the other side uh trump seems to be losing a few people you might expect to be supporting him not as significant as uh a group of eight second cousins mind you but uh for instance um goldman sachs economists have come out uh and done like some modeling and you know how big of fans we are of economist modeling but oh yeah the economists do always seem to have like come down on the same side of like who is better for the economy who's better for my money yeah goldman sack econ goldman sacks economist like that that just like feels i start like smelling a republican when those words are put together um but they came out gamed out the potential economic implications of a republican or democratic victory in november uh and cautioned that the u.s gdp would face a hit in the case of a win for donald trump boom

capital has spoken yes uh but that's yeah that's a little surprising that goes against the kind of accepted wisdom about who donald like who would donald trump be good for right a handful of rich people yeah when there's all things like i'll make sure you don't pay anything but they're like yeah but that's just a handful of us like i'm also invested i'm like kind of invested in a lot of in the economy so like you can't just beat me like i need i need the businesses to be humming um but great sure Will that do anything? Probably not. I don't know.

Maybe, maybe there are like, I feel like there's probably some like banker people who are still listening to economists about like what, what their forecasts say. I feel like there's probably still like wall street journal Republicans out there. Yeah.

If you're that, but I feel like those kinds of people, they're probably insulated enough by their wealth that it really truly doesn't matter who's president they're just like i don't know yeah i forgot to vote man like i'm just collecting interest on all this shit but it's helpful for them to have like their financial advisors moral licensing to be like yeah trump would actually be better for you so they can be like well there well he said it he said it not me hold on honey

you want braces right okay so i'm gonna have to vote i'm voting for trump um and then also apparently there are some republicans uh these are like blind items nobody's going on the record but uh they they're like since the past month or so as trump has been you know seeming to like have uh some some things glitching in the old brain uh in public and then his you know he's gone back on some of his anti-choice uh bona fides that there are now republicans who are okay with a donald trump loss on election day and specifically are like gaming things out and they're like actually this would be the best thing for the republican party because we have no future with him um so yep yep yep cool i don't know if you could just lose yeah there was

like a whole thing in politico i think that was the article yeah politico's playbook of course we check the politico.com playbook every morning just to see uh what what everybody's up to yeah in the capital people people come up to me on the street all the time they say hey what's up playboy i say hey what about what's up with the playbook thank you you asked the wrong questions i need to know what politico's weird takes are on today i actually keep it on a thing on my arm like a college quarterback you know the playbook play card political playbook yeah it's a little led screen that you have that updates like oh no look at this what is this but yeah i think there's this whole you know the the the republicans who aren't even never trumpers

are saying it but not publicly because they are cowards and so they're still just hoping that his terrible candidacy will help them now they're like now we get to be the people who are the big kids on the playground because the mega people took it over um yeah i don't know it's it's a of coping. So I guess they can just say, well, the good thing is maybe if Kamala Harris wins, we can be the new Republicans. Yeah. Okay, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure. Unfortunately, they're probably not going to get their wish of Donald Trump loss because it does seem like the Republicans have figured out the code for stopping kamala harris yeah and uh so we got a couple strategies here yeah one has to do with her knees yeah yeah yeah fucking genius dude peter navarro who i'm

you know i think just got out of prison um you know he's he's, he's on, he's on the internet screaming about, he's like, we got to figure out a way to get cop just to, just to try and, you know, slow down the enthusiasm. And then this is, this is his strategy for that. I am urging you from this day forward, never, ever, ever to refer to Kamala Harris by her first name. Okay. Only her first name. Okay. Kamala kamala she is not a soccer star oh okay she's not a soccer star paley i get it messy i get it messy is that his first name, by the way? He said Messe. Messe. Yeah, Messe, Messi.

Not Lionel. Anyways, it ain't Pele. It ain't Messe. Okay. But when you use Kamala these days, it does not do us any good. Works in the other direction. It personalizes her, it it creates a favorable impression we haven't been able to do what needs to be done based on her resume uh turn anyway i

can't i can't understand this anymore he's like losing the thread he also goes on to be like he's like so an ode or homage to that famous pop music karma chameleon that's not bad comma liar that's not bad but we're having a wake-up call right now okay we're burying kamala as a single use name who's a single use name what is it single use plastics what does that even mean to yeah a single use name is very strange comma chameleon would people even name that basis chameleon it's not even chameleon couldn't even figure out like what it would be so he was like maybe like work i don't know i'm just spitballing here but maybe like that song could be worked in somehow i don't know i'm just like out here workshopping things uh i didn't say

they were all going to be winners okay yeah um i mean that's just wild though too like that's this is this is where the thinking is too now like the ideas that are coming out of these like people have audiences for like people on the far right is just stuff like all right what if we just called her madam vice president what i mean i thought he was going with because calling women by their first name and men by their last name is kind of like a microaggression that happens in the workplace sometimes so i thought he was being like being protective yeah don't call it he's going well that's sexist yeah guys call her miss harris or something please meanwhile they're coming at kamala harris from multiple angles so of course don't use it as a single use name whatever that means and then also uh what's up with her earbuds okay like is it this

is weird right yeah what is it what's going on why does she so miles she's always got earbuds in on when she's talking on the phone and that's because uh it really feels like people just like trying to be like, well, look at your shirt. Your shirt sucks. You know, just like looking at a picture and trying to like pick a thing to make fun of somebody about. But she is wearing headphones because she's on the phone uh because she's busy person um they are speculating that she is using them to shield herself from interviews and interview questions um fox news loved this so they like jumped on and they're like look look at this with their with their headphones they're like proof positive smoking gun is that

she's not using airpods okay like the rest of the world she's still using wired headphones so obviously it's just a show to like she's trying to show everybody that she's on the phone so that uh she looks busy and so she can't uh answer their questions right right right right right okay so similar so when these men see that similar to a lot of the females i try to talk to out in public they got their ear buds they act like they don't have time i've seen this a hundred times folks it's fake it's just because i'm creepy or it's because they're they're lying that's right yeah this is so this is just so wild to be like and the other ones like they're wired sometimes she wears the wired ones not even air pods yes and by the way that was a scandal they like so now they're being like she's actually like faking it.

And you can tell because she's using wire, but she's always worn wired earbuds. And you can like literally see them in the famous like we did it, Joe video. Yeah, right. Where she's out for a jog and finds out that they won the election. And in fact, this is the first time her use of wired earbuds has sparked a stupid controversy in 2021 politico published a piece blowing the lid off of her bluetooth phobia um they interviewed former aides who revealed that harris insists on using wired headphones holy shit what um are we okay as a country yeah we're fine with this not if we have this person so close to power uh who insists on using wired headphones why would they do that like

what what what what what compels the person to use wired headphones in 2021 um oh actually so that same article like after pretending it was a controversy, also points out that numerous experts say that despite, you know, this article's three authors calling Harris paranoid for using wired earbuds. around Bluetooth technology. The CVE program is a database of current and historic cybersecurity vulnerabilities recorded, and it has recorded more than 450 instances of Bluetooth being used to compromise data and devices, which is why the FBI reportedly instructs politicians, lawmakers, and national security executives to protect themselves from spies trolls and adversaries

by using wired devices not bluetooth whenever possible so she's literally being dragged for just following security protocols from the fbi dude she's just listening to the fbi man what's wrong with that what's wrong with it's just so funny though too because like they they can't like there's plenty of policy you could talk about but the republicans are famously haven't want nothing to do with policy so it also be these like weird personal attacks be like dude she's wearing like fucking earbuds yeah i mean obviously it's not the critique of her policies isn't going to come from the far right of her but jesus like they're they're they have nothing uh and this is this is where you end up when you're just going after earbuds and you have

no policy to speak of yeah yes meanwhile uh if you want to compare the two candidates respective earbud cred uh in addition to presumably not even knowing what airpods are trump sells gold paneled earbuds on his website and um like i assumed they were just the apple airpods but like with gold on the outside and like trump stenciled in uh they're just like way worse a full charge gives you two to three hours of listening time um whereas normal airpods give you four and a half to six so yeah who wouldn't want to have wired earbuds as opposed to gold-plated shitty airpods that only work for like an hour yeah uh well what a great um they'll they'll have something they'll they'll have another look they're gonna have another attack locked and loaded come this time tomorrow something i know it's great to

like i love opening up my internet box every morning and seeing what they have in store for me yeah well because now it's just like even like fucking lindsey graham had an op-ed in the new york times and he's like donald trump please stop going off script about kamala harris it's it's hurting you please we don't even know what to say anymore i think at this point we just we're just trying to tell you to shut up dude shut up because their whole thing is like every time he opens his mouth he's like that just becomes a thing where they're the whole news cycle is now just talking about what trump said and we're not able to actually critique her on her record it's like what is her record from your perspective because it's not coming from my

side of a critique of what it could be like how the platform went way to the right uh in many instances it's more to be like and she made eggs more expensive right yeah okay all right all right okay eggs expensive and use wired headphones got it got it got it got it got it all right well those are some of the things that are trending on this wednesday september 4th we are back tomorrow with a whole last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other. Be kind to yourselves. Get the vaccine. Don't do nothing about white supremacy.

How do you feel about biscuits?
