I would probably get in my butt just for the story.
Hey.
Hey.
We're back.
We took a break.
We didn't tell anyone.
Yeah.
But it was Thanksgiving.
it's that one's on me i didn't plan ahead giving thanks i also that's my favorite holiday so i did
not mind taking a week off yeah not because of the history break i don't love that i don't love
the story of thanksgiving but i do love the food of thanksgiving see i can't even say i really love
the food of thanksgiving it has to be done well i think turkey is a very hard thing to execute
like a a whole full baked turkey yeah i let's just stick to deli turkey yeah why it's not broken
why why why go into making a whole fucking turkey yeah that's so true queen they started serving
gravy with turkey because it's so dry is that really why i don't know probably it probably is
i i feel like that's true it was my first thanksgiving not with my parents in a very long
time um and frank made it really special he was cooking all day long he made all of my favorite
foods he got like my favorite recipe from my mom and made it which was really nice really sweet
yeah it was good did you guys do a land acknowledgement we do that's an open question
for everybody we do one every every day do you not wow is i know that's i'm fucked up what the
fuck i haven't been doing a daily land acknowledgement um no but actually i'm not
i'm not you know i'm not mocking the idea of a land acknowledgement i think now it's kind of like
a self-aware yes uh joke absolutely yes for sure amongst amongst the leftists yes uh the charlie
sheen documentary very good oh interesting highly recommend i'm not surprised there's a documentary
i just we don't have subscriptions to so many different things we just use plex oh have you
heard of plex sounds like an ad i haven't heard of plex not sponsored i don't think plex would
ever sponsor anything because it's just kind of like one person like hosts a server and like you
can share shows and movies and plex is like whatever it's none of our business but it is
that's pirating they're going to take over a ship you don't download it you just stream it
i don't know much like water much like pirates yeah we keep having uh we keep having to pause
because something keeps glitching with our with recording i'm so glad you're wearing the
headphones yeah i have to now yeah because this has been happening the last like four weeks in
row you look like a cool dj bitch i'm wearing an arm sling for anyone wondering her rotator cuff
is acting up yeah and i wasn't even doing anything cool i i think i just slept on it weird and now
it really fucking hurts yeah i i have a pillow cube but because we got a new mattress it's really
fucking comfortable and i keep ending up on my back and the pillow cube is just for side sleepers
i was actually fucked up we were i was just thinking this i was gonna ask you what's how
you like to sleep what side do you sleep on um I can only fall asleep on my left side interesting
yeah but then I'll wake up I can nap on my right side but I can't go to sleep at night on my left
side I feel like I start out on my right side and then when I start to get real comfortable and
doze off I'll turn over to my left side what is the what's the science of that I've always wondered
like why does one side feel better than the other i i have no idea and like i there are some people
i met someone who sleeps on her stomach i can't with that that always hurts my stomach are you
an infant yeah i can't i can't do that that's also not good for infants to do i mean or maybe
they can't sleep i don't really know i don't know i i don't know how infants are supposed to sleep
i feel like there's new information like every year about how they're supposed to fall asleep
do they sleep on their back do they sleep on their stomach babies can't drink water until
they can like eat solid food you like can't give babies water oh my god yeah why anybody
it's they just can't have it i don't know it's like i don't know if their little bodies can't
yeah i mean there is an acidity level to water so that's true maybe that has to do with it
they just need milk i think we've talked about this on the podcast before but uh we're like the
only species that gives birth to animals that like i guess people are animals yeah that are
underdeveloped because like most other mammals like their babies are born and they can walk and
stuff whoa right away and the reason that is is because humans are bipedal so they stand on two
feet and the way that they've developed is like their pelvis is no longer big enough to give birth
to like a fully formed skull so that's why babies have soft heads and they're underdeveloped when
you give birth to them fuck yeah that's crazy but if we were on all fours then our pelvises would
develop differently and we'd be able to maybe we should start that now for future generations also
i don't even think we're technically supposed to give birth lying on our backs we're not it was
like you you did research on this for an episode like back in like the tens i believe that like
it was like some king that like wanted to see his young come out and that's why we give birth that
way yeah like there was such little entertainment back in the day that he was just like all right
spread them yeah i guess i want to see the the miracle happen i don't know what television is
but this is what this is my television entertaining this is entertainment for me yeah let's all gather
around that's so that's such like a creepy reason for us to do what we do so before the uh the audio
stopped working i was talking about the show pluribus it is if you haven't heard of it it's
by vince gilligan who wrote and created and directed a lot of breaking bad and better call
saul and it is and if you've watched better call saul the main character in it is the woman that
played kim ray sanborn so fucking good and it's kind of like an allegory on i don't know if it's
an allegory i guess it's an allegory on people think it's about ai and if you watch it through
that lens it's really interesting oh so i highly recommend yeah we've heard so many good things
about it it's unbelievable that to the list it's so fucking good i was just telling amelia uh maybe
we should have like a segment where i just complain about something that's bothering me
but she correctly pointed out that um that's kind of like this whole podcast but if we put a label
on it we should call it plizzed off yeah and i think that liz'd off i'm liz'd off yeah the thing
that's lizzing me off right now is uh so I've been listening you you all know I love my little
fantasy audio audiobooks um I was listening to Quicksilver um so I listened to Quicksilver
like last year or something um or like earlier this year and then the second book just came out
and that one's called Brimstone and I listened to that one and like it's uh two different voice
actors who are narrating it and they do they're so talented they are very good at doing different
voices for each characters they have like one male actor one female actor so they like switch
off who does what voices and they do a great job um of having like really distinct character voices
and you get like really sucked in and every time i go to reddit to see what other people are saying
and like you know i love theorizing about like oh what's this gonna be what's this plot twist
and for this one specifically everyone was like complaining about like small little things that
I didn't even notice and now you're not care about no not even that I'm like do you bitches have any
fun yeah no why are you reading people really love complaining they do especially on reddit
yeah and that's why you know I'm complaining right now this is our reddit I just like I do
love fan theorizing and i do that with um uh fourth wing books and i think for that for the
most part that fan base really enjoys like theorizing about things but i genuinely really
enjoyed um brimstone i thought it was so fun like every chapter um they switched off perspectives
between the two main characters which i thought was really fun and then um i can't remember if
they did that i don't think they did that in the first book but uh every chapter ended on like a
cliffhanger and then it switched to the other person's perspective and they they have something
else going on and it just went back and forth and i was like well what's gonna happen next i had a
great time listening to it fuck yeah it must be so fun for authors of these books to see people
theorizing about it yeah like they pour so much into it and then like people get so invested that
they're like theorizing that's so cool and they call them all by like little nicknames it's usually
their initials like um for fourth wing rebecca yaros is the author so people call her ry and
then sjm sarah j mass if you know you know she did the uh a court of thorns and roses series with
Feyre oh the one where I hate the main character yes yeah I'm actually on another one of her series
Throne of Glass um and this one is not so much like it's it's a young adult one so there isn't
any like sex stuff oh in it which I actually am very much enjoying sometimes I'm I'm like okay
know i guess i'm a fantasy nerd yeah i mean the smut to fantasy pipeline yeah yeah now i'm like
it was all this time i'm inconvenienced by the sex scenes wow what the fuck this is getting in
the way of the storyline yeah i need to know what happens action like i'm like all right i'm gonna
put this in two times speed so we get through it wow that's crazy really come a long way yeah no
kidding yeah yeah yeah you a year ago you were you were deep in like the harry potter smut
wild harry popper that's what we call it now i've been playing hogwarts legacy yeah you got it
basically free several hours too many hours i i was playing it um during thanksgiving and my
family was teasing me about it and i was like i don't care i'm a level 24 witch suck it yeah
bitches i get well it i get so like i was playing staying up playing uh harry popper pretty late
we call it harry popper because um there's this guy on tiktok who does impressions of bad bunny
and he was like this is my impression if bad bunny was like cast in harry potter and then he's like
harry popper so now that's really funny i've seen that guy anyways um i forgot what i was saying
it's really fun fuck yeah but i do feel a little bad because jk rowling is a turf whatever i mean
yeah fuck jk rowling in a very real way but like i just feel like it's so unfair for like the harry
potter like the people that grew up with harry potter and love it so so much to like have to
feel bad about loving it now because like she's such a fucked person yeah you know it's separating
the art from the artist true yeah if you can separate art from the artist I feel like that's
probably one of the ones that is more acceptable like separating the art from the artist when it
comes to Kanye I'm like yeah I have him on do not play on my Spotify you can still listen to R. Kelly
because all of the profits from his songs are going to the survivors interesting yeah fun well
that's really good which is great because i've had a hard time not listening to ignition that song
slaps the remix to ignition hot and fresh out the kitchen that's like the only r kelly song i know
i don't think i've listened to any other ones um you have trapped in a closet you've probably heard
i mean i know that but i wasn't listening to it um then i'm trapped in the closet what's the one
from uh space jam i believe i can fly that one i believe i can touch the sky i think about it
every night and day spread my wings and fly away oh that was beautiful i believe i can so
that does remind me of being in kindergarten when space jam came out i fucking loved space jam we
watched that movie too many times it's such a fun movie it's so fun we should get together and
re-watch it i would love that and then we should watch the lebron james version yes love it yes
um speaking of fan theorizing i've gotten like really in deep in the stephen king like lore
because i started watching welcome to dairy and you're not the only one i feel like i've been
hearing people talking about stephen king a lot yeah well because it's this this new show is like
they're releasing it every week on hbo right now and is it max or is it hbo i think he's on the
epstein list stephen king yeah on twitter he like switches up about the epstein files i didn't know
that yeah oh my god i would be so fucking disappointed and he writes some kind of
inappropriate stuff like didn't he in it didn't he write about like children having sex what yeah
i don't know see i don't read this is how i just like stay i just stay kind of neutral on these
things i don't like horror oh that's not good that's not but like it's so interesting how he
writes these universes they go so fucking deep and like so i've been watching welcome to dairy
and i've seen it and then watching like these youtubers that get the episodes early so that
they can like share their theories about it on youtube so they'll release them like right after
the episode goes live which is really really cool and like so much is embedded in the show that's
happen in like other books of his yeah which is so fucking cool there was another show there was
another stephen king based show that i think it was on hbo and it was really good um and it was
like the stephen king universe there was like a lot of overlap like so cool um i'm trying to think
of i can't remember what it was called but i didn't know that the shining was a stephen king
story i actually didn't know that either i didn't know that until welcome to dairy because one of
characters has the shining and so like in these fan theories like one of the characters that
is in the show is in the movie the shining i was like how did i miss that because we like broke
down that movie in every single film class i've ever taken no clue that it was a stephen king book
i i watched the shining on a little tiny dvd player on a bus ride oh my god the little tiny
like laptop ones yeah those were so fun so that's when i watched the shining hell yeah anyway can we
talk about botox real quick yeah um so i got dow botox which is here and one thing that feels weird
i feel like my mouth doesn't move as much it doesn't look like it's not moving as much okay
i haven't noticed that but maybe now that you've said it i'll notice it and maybe i get too in my
head about it it definitely doesn't look like it's moving less but i feel like my smile is cuter
you already had a cute smile thank you but like i love that you feel like that it's called like
happy bow tie i don't know some people call it that because um like it stops you from scowling
so that's why i got it because i was like i don't want to be noticing my
what are these lines called laugh lines no smile lines something uh oh i see that not the one not
these you know what i'm talking about oh i i was like feeling like i looked a little more jowly
okay and i was like i don't like that i need to go get my botox re-upped well and i've learned
that i think i think yours still looks good i don't think you need to re-up i don't like being
able to move my forehead it's the issue um i i think a little bit of movement's good yeah
i think it's good and that's also where i got my vitamin d injection i don't really feel that much
no put it in my arm she was like you could put it in your arm or on your in your butt butt cheek
and I was like what would be the difference and she's like there really isn't one I was like arm
I would probably get in my butt just for the story you know speaking of Botox this is something that
I wanted to talk well I wasn't going to talk about it on the podcast I was just going to talk about
it with you but I want to talk why not why not broadcast it you know everyone knows everything
anyway um i was going through i have this app called picnic not sponsored that like helps you
delete photos from your phone like in a fun way and it kind of like i should do that it's really
great it's worth i have so many dollars a year it's i've cleared 500 gigabytes out of my phone
just using picnic it's been so great isn't it kind of i feel like i've seen an ad for this or
at least someone talking about it where it's kind of like you swipe right or left if you want to
keep it yes I would totally do that truly fantastic I need to gamify I need to gamify
more of my chores oh yeah that's it it's the only way I can get anything done as if it's gamified
but it how I do it every day is like it shows you like on this day all of the photos from like
all the way back um and you can delete them that way and yesterday I was going through and there
were all of these pictures and videos of me like five years ago that I was so pretty and I remember
thinking i was so not pretty and it was like that's right so fucking heartbreaking to look
back yes i'm just like oh my god i think about that all the time like why are we torturing
ourselves like this where we're like we feel like we're so ugly and then we like go back and look
at these photos and we're like i was so beautiful and i didn't even appreciate it or i was like why
am i making myself miserable about how i look yes like it's just not the suffering is not worth it
no I don't know it's so sad it's so much easier said than done to be like you need to appreciate
like your beauty now or like your youth and beauty I don't know we're we're we're like
brainwashed into not liking ourselves yeah because it's profitable right exactly everything is made
into a problem to fix and I wish I could undo some of those things in my head I like I don't
know I'm like have I ever really been confident I feel like I have I feel like I have been confident
about how i look but i'm like way less confident now it's it's really an uphill battle to be
confident as a woman in america it truly is it's exhausting it's incredible whenever i see a
confident woman i'm like fuck yeah because like you know that that was not easy like to get to
that point what you know when there's women that are actually confident not the ones that are like
masquerading as confident which is like a whole other sad yeah people who don't feel threatened
by like I don't know not obviously not like they don't feel threatened by like their position in
society they don't feel threatened at work like they're very secure in who they are I think that's
true confidence absolutely it's just like not letting how someone else treats you shake your
like identity yeah absolutely yeah and like I do feel like there's there was like this big
counterculture online of like you know like this is the real me and like I seem really confident
but I'm actually like breaking down every day about how I feel and like there's something very
like therapeutic about seeing that even though it's sad it's like oh all of us are going through
this it's still kind of like oh okay I'm not like a freak for feeling this way yeah but like I was
looking at back at these pictures and like I just remember because it wasn't that long like five
years ago was not that long ago so I can kind of recall how I felt in those moments and I remember
like i was just like not like whenever i'd get a compliment from anyone i would feel like it was
loaded you know or like i was i was just like i just remember feeling like so gross and not just
like why didn't i fucking appreciate how i looked then then like yeah but it's so difficult it's not
i don't know like i said it's like an uphill battle for us to like actually believe that we are
you know how like while we're being told that we are but like i don't know it was just like it was
a it was a weird like wake-up call for me last night specifically yeah why it's good to have
those reminders yeah um i saw a tweet that i think it went pretty viral like does anything go viral
on twitter anymore um but this girl said uh i'm not gonna let big pedophilia convince me 31 is old
and i was a big pedophilia like the b was capitalized and the p was capitalized and i was
like no you're so fucking right like because i'm thinking like my parents are in their 60s and they
like they look great they're having the time of their lives in retirement like you can't convince
me that like 60s is old they're like living their freaking life yeah i mean my parents are both in
their 70s and they're both super super yeah my yeah i feel like my dad is younger than me in a
lot of ways it's still young and it's like but we've been led to believe the late 70s start to
kind of things maybe start to crumble a little bit but yeah i'm curious what will happen with
our generation because people are living longer and longer yeah and like but then again the wealth
disparity in this country is like so fucking crippling i i heard today 95 of sales on um
black friday were financed like buy now pay later oh no so well i heard today that the average age
of home buyers this year 59 59 did you watch this drew gooden video uh yes i did yeah i just i was
watching it before you came over that's that is an insane statistic mm-hmm mm-hmm drew gooden makes
some fucking great videos yeah he does yeah i was just like so amped and agitated after watching his
latest video uh if you guys don't know drew gooden is the guy who said um road work ahead i sure hope
it does but now he makes like long for long form youtube content um and his latest video is about
how greed is destroying the world and it was a good video and it do be and i think he made a
great point like like when people say i i hate that make america great again is now like this
hateful term like the people who say make america great again like they want uh slavery to be legal
essentially yeah um they believe some really horrible things but like to me i'm like okay
if i were to make america great again i would like i think of like what drew gooden was saying
about like companies did used to brag about how well their employees were treated and there was
not this huge wealth disparity and um also like products were so much higher quality yeah like
yeah everything is crap now yeah it's cheap garbage yeah and that pisses me off it's like
impossible to find something that's well made yeah i know i get so angry like why don't we
have like dishwashers that last like 50 years why don't we have because we have the technology for
that yeah have you seen the article making its rounds about how like the young people gen z and
millennials are killing the phone industry or whatever the fuck because they're not buying a
new phone every time it comes out they're using the phone that they have that still works we can't
afford it yeah exactly idiots i'm not gonna buy a two thousand dollar phone every year yeah hello
like if it still works i'm gonna fucking use it unless and if you're mr liz if your phone doesn't
work you'll still use it have you seen his phone no he uh i think his phone fell out of his pocket
when he was biking and it is getting worse and worse every day like so far the the like phone
juice in your screen it's like making part of the screen black it's chipped he cut his finger
oh yeah that's a real thing yeah i'm like went and and then he looked up how um how much it
costs to get the screen replaced on his phone that's really expensive too so um one of our
friends has been just like he loves like bargaining on facebook marketplace so he's been trying to get
him a new phone especially i think he's like a he's like one of the google phones i don't know
which one okay i don't know anything about phones that are apple phones me either but you know what
i'm also kind of like maybe we should maybe we should what why do they deserve my brand loyalty
because they're the best ones you don't want to learn how to use a new phone that's my issue
whenever i try to use my dad's phone for anything because he has an android i'm like i where am i
it's like i've never seen technology before yeah same that's exactly how i feel i'm like i feel
90 years old trying to operate any kind of new technology i do have a lot of respect for
for android users for people who never had an iphone and they just like are like trying new
phones yeah like good for them you know i have beef with android users and it's only because
of like what apple has done to alienate yeah they made it so fucking hard like you can't send
android users voice notes no it lowers the quality of videos and images when you try and
send it to an android user every group chat that you're in yeah get fucked apple get fucked apple
but i'll still use you i'm still have every kind of product but also i love your like really clean
and easy to navigate interface it's really great steve jobs was on something you know not meds
i mean and now like they can't come up with any fucking new ideas yeah that i feel like that is
also just kind of a reflection of like every corporation right now like late the way late
stage capitalism has like happened so quickly yeah it's fucking depressing like there's no new
ideas and like these big corporations are shoving ai down everyone's throats about to say that when
they like aren't paying attention to what the masses are saying like the masses online do not
want ai yeah like and i think there's there's definitely a middle ground where like ai is not
being used like to its full potential for like positive reasons like there are things that it
can do that would be greatly beneficial to different industries yeah but now it's just like
well let's try and use it to replace people or like let's how can you use it to make you faster
at your job so you can do more work and then we don't have to hire and train new young people
who have working brains like yeah i know it's wild because people are being laid off right now for not
using ai like like aptly you know what i mean it's like they were like the the people making
those decisions too don't even know how to do that fucking job so like if you have employees
who are like i can't use ai it's not improving my workflow it's not making anything faster like
i and i don't want to yeah i just don't think that's a good enough reason no i agree i think
um i think what's what doesn't work is gonna quickly crumble yeah so we'll see
should we get into some of my topics yeah let's do it how long have we been talking
um i can't see that with breaks like 31 minutes oh and i don't know how easy it will be for you
to edit because because of all the breaks certain things will probably be cut off you know that's
okay that's that's a later Amelia problem well I'm glad we figured out that it was my chord
yeah yeah so you live and you learn as they say um you live you learn you breathe you sound just
like her thank you it's one of my favorite impressions to do it's so good I was like
is Alanis my mom listened to a lot of Alanis Morissette I love that is that how you say
Atlantis or Alanis I say Alanis I don't know Atlantis Atlantis okay so me I was looking up
more um well I was looking up like current trends online around sex and dating and what I was
punched in the face with was two phrases and I had made you guess some phrases like
submarining and you know yeah there are two more that i need you to guess what they mean and we're
going to talk about both of them because they both deserve a conversation i'm gonna try and
not be so literal like i was last time what do you think shrekking is shrekking as in swamp shrek
uh spoiler it's worse than you think oh no is it like not washing your ass
no it's more when i say worse than you think i mean morally morally shrekking
i don't even know i know it's a tough one i don't think i would be able to guess either
okay tell me so it's when you date down on purpose because you think the less attractive
person will treat you better that's fucking stupid and really really awful yeah like that's
just like an awful thing to shoot for yeah and to do that intentionally huh i mean it's a thing
that people are like proudly talking about because it's like shrekking imagine like finding like your
boyfriend's phone and he's like talking about that on reddit i just have god i have a hard time
i saw a woman's post i don't remember if it was on twitter or threads or something and she was like
saying like i try and date men that are like better than me and then in my head i was like
well i think that like like she's like i'm a normal girl who wants to date and above or i'm
an here's what it was i'm an average girl who wants to date an above average man and i was like
well honestly like an average woman is already better than an average man like the average man
sucks yeah right yeah the curve is a little different yeah so i'm like no like an above
average man is like now on par with an average woman yeah that's so true and again this isn't
like any shade to men i think both of us are dating like highly above average men absolutely
feel i feel blessed yes me too there's not a day that goes by that i am not thankful and i like i
make sure i tell mr liz regularly like do you know how much i appreciate you i'll remind you every
day yeah and truly that's the best the best thing in the world having somebody that you feel the
need to tell that how lucky you feel but also i think a lot of men would agree with what you just
said about like women women's average is a men's above average yeah did you see that like video of
like that guy that's like this is what male friendships are like and he tried to make it
as like a haha thing and then he's telling his friends like he like did you know i had like a
really bad breakup last year and his friends were like huh and he's like do you know her name we
were dating for five years and then they were like oh wait no i don't remember her name and
then he was like that's why i moved because i was so heartbroken and they were like oh shit and i
was like that is heartbreaking yeah i know and that's like maybe i'm wrong but that's my perception
of the average man yeah like i i don't know and i can i feel like frank's friendships are not like
that well you know what this has been a point of contention not in a serious way where we're like
fighting about it but like frank will come back from like events with his friends with no tea
like none and like i have been really trying hard to train him up on just asking some questions like
if somebody breaks up ask what happened yeah i have a hard time getting that information from
him and i saw a video of a dude that was like pretending to be sent to hang out with notes
from his girlfriend of what to ask he's like looking yeah he's like what happened are you okay
well to me that just shows like a lack of interest in your friendships that's what i thought too but
like frank is do they maybe just talk about other stuff yeah he's just like we don't we've just never
had those kind of conversations so like we just don't i don't know he's like we care about each
other but like we don't ask for details yeah i feel like they're more like damn dude that sucks
yeah you okay i sick i don't know i just like i know you and i have talked about this before but
like mr liz has sometimes been like worried that because i'm like very independent and i don't see
my friends or like participate in an in a hobby where i see my friends as often as he does
so he's like concerned that now he's the center of my social fulfillment you know what i mean
yeah um and he's not and I was thinking about it and I was like I wonder why he feels that way
sometimes and I like we've talked very openly about it and I was like do I do things that make
you feel like that and then he's like well no I just like I'm worried about it sometimes like
I don't want all this pressure for me to be like all of your social fulfillment and I was like well
I don't really feel like that like I'm not like waiting for you to come home and stuff and then
um the more I thought about it I was like I think like just when I see my my friendships with women
are so like emotionally fulfilling that like they sustain me for long long periods of time right
especially when I see my college girlfriends like we talk so much about like the deepest
like depths of our emotions like yeah I don't know I just I feel like so fulfilled every time
I see them and it lasts me until the next time I see them and that's just how I feel in like
almost all of my friendships with women it's just like when we talk and see each other it's like
nothing no time has gone by and nothing has changed and I don't know if that's how men feel
in their friendships I mean yeah I don't know well and I text I text like you I text other
friends like all day long right I'm like maybe you don't see that but like I don't know that's
also fulfilling for me for sure and yeah I don't know you see I've just noticed like Frank when
we're with his friends they can just like all sit in a room and like just like if there's two of
them I love Frank's friends aren't they so great they're so funny they're so fun the friends here
I think are always there they could they bounce off of each other really fast but like there he
has friends that he's been friends with like lifelong friends they could just be in a room
together and not be saying anything and I am so uncomfortable with that like hey yeah I like
need to tell me about your deepest secrets because when i'm with my girlfriends like
we're always yapping about something yeah and then there's no there's not enough time yeah
to get out everything i wanted to think of and talk about and know about and learn yeah you know
and that's why um you know the men of the past uh labeled gossip as a negative thing because
women talking has been a dangerous thing in like historically for men information sharing because
we like that's how we bond look at what's happening with like people just not believing
the victims of like epstein's pedophile ring it's like well we need to see the list i'm like
or we could just like believe women did you see that they paid something they paid the i think
the justice department a million dollars in overtime for redactions i did see that should
be interesting when that comes out anyway there's no way we're gonna get all of that i don't think
well i don't think much would change if if it was like a complete unredacted list i really hope
people don't like ease up on it though yeah yeah i would like to see the full truth because i think
that um every pedophile should be held accountable agreed agreed um it might ruin the lives of these
billionaires oh boohoo yeah i don't fucking care yeah i could literally could not care less what
happened to prince andrew was so warranted watching that man's life crumble was so beautiful i would
like to see that happen to more people yeah and i don't i don't care who they voted for no no me
neither that's we should all stand together i saw this very interesting image um that was like the
horseshoe of like political beliefs and they had mom donnie placed kind of in the middle like middle
left and then someone shared it because to me i'm like what the fuck and they had kamala as far left
like at the bottom interesting and so it was like mom donnie and bernie sanders like close together
and then it was like kamala at the very end and then like trump in the middle and then like
i don't remember who else was on the republican side and then someone shared it and they were
like this is actually how like a lot of like the modern right thinks and what they believe and i
thought that was very fascinating that a lot of like people who are centrist or even republicans
view mom donnie as being closer to the center than far left and i think that's like a good
representation of how 70 of us agree on like changes we want to see happen but i think the
disagreement comes with how would we get there yeah yeah i don't know you're so right interesting
it really is it has been also very fascinating to watch like the mega civil war happen oh my god
yeah i'm it's like television and it actually it is it is on television like all right that sounds
crazy but then we're all waiting for that there's also like you you also see that on the left
of like super far leftists who criticize literally anything good oh yeah for sure like they don't
want anything they don't want anything any changes to happen they're just always going to find
something to critique I just think the difference is that there's no major left figureheads that
are like peeling off like they are on MAGA you know like Marjorie Taylor Greene being like you
know so outspoken about that's because the right is way more likely to like do bomb threats and
like swap people and like actually violently harm the people they disagree with yeah yeah whereas I
don't really think that's kind of like I would this is kind of crazy like I was thinking about
this earlier today. So, um, the other week when I met Amelia to go see Chris red, see his standup
on the way there, I was on the bus and this guy who like looked totally normal started screaming
at these teenage girls. He was like up in their faces. He was saying he was a Seattle police
officer. Um, and like, if I were a bigger dude, like if I was a big dude, I would absolutely be
like you need to calm down you need to calm down or I'm calling the police um and instead I like
got up and talked to the bus driver I was like there's a guy back there who's like harassing
these teenage girls and he's like I don't know what they're saying what is he saying and I was
like he's saying he's a Seattle police officer and that he's gonna kill them and they're being
investigated and then um the guy stopped and the two girls moved to the front of the bus
and like nothing really happened uh lo and behold this guy is notoriously known in like the northern
Seattle area for doing shit like this for harassing teenagers for harassing women assaulting
people on their way to work like he's been seen on like very specific bus routes and I was thinking
about it I have a taser um I've only like tested it once and it scares the shit out of me it's so
it's so loud and like even just thinking about it I'm like would I even feel comfortable using
a taser I wouldn't like it scares me yeah yeah that's a lot of power and I I I don't know I'm
like probably I don't know I think I'm uh less woke than some people yeah but like I even just
the thought of using my taser on someone if it's warranted scares the fuck out of me absolutely
that's the thing with like well you know we should give teachers guns it's like well what do you
think they're gonna do with the guns like yeah you're expecting people to just be okay with
shooting someone yeah no yeah like and i have my taser next to my bed like in case of an emergency
i should probably check and see if it still works yeah i mean charge it up yeah that's not a bad
idea i know but then after that i was like okay i need to put my pepper spray back in my
backpack because i hadn't used it for so long it's just so clunky yeah but but after that i was like
okay i should i i like need to carry around some sort of self-defense yeah yeah you never know
and the fact that this guy so i found i found a subreddit that's like for my neighborhood i
shared this with amelia like before i came over i was like holy fuck this is the guy that was on
the bus um yeah and all of all of the comments were stories of this guy like doing that exact
thing and he's been arrested a bunch of times and just released because the mental hospitals are all
full here and he's not mentally competent to be in jail so they just keep placing him back out
on the street and it's just i don't know those girls being yelled out of the bus i'm the only
one who did anything and all i did was talk to the bus driver yeah like and then i asked those
girls if they were okay yeah I was like are you guys good like that was really scary no one else
did anything I did the bare minimum and I feel like everyone should feel comfortable enough to
intervene and at least like yeah just intervene you don't need to do anything aggressive but
ignoring these things happening when people might be in danger is a huge risk yeah no one's saying
that like homeless people like should be euthanized or anything it's just like okay yeah i agree like
it fucking sucks how many systems we have that have failed these people yeah but like when you
have someone who's being violent like that like think about all of the other homeless people that
they're putting in danger yeah it's just i don't know if you're not doing anything then you're
worse in my opinion absolutely i mean that's the that's the whole thing with like there's
no nuance in these conversations it's like oh always you you think this guy shouldn't be on
the street so you just think all homeless people should be killed it's like what no when did
anybody what it sounds like you're saying that yeah i think my taxes should be used better yeah
that's what i think uh-huh and i think that the seattle police department doesn't do jack shit
like the the powers that be don't fucking do anything so when they don't like what are we
doing collectively as a community in a neighborhood to look out for our other neighbors including
other homeless people right there are there are so many homeless people who mind their own business
and are just like you know we're all like one piece of bad luck away from being homeless ourselves
like I do care about the homeless people in my neighborhood and this guy is a threat to them
just as much as he is to me yeah I don't know yeah I'm just like like all it all it would have
taken is just like a couple more people on the bus being like hey dude knock it off yeah and no
no one wants to do that they just like avert their overt eye contact yeah this is none of my
business yeah yeah i know i mean this is also an argument for like reforming the police they're
actually called unhoused yeah that's the conversation we need to be having yeah fucking
stupid like you'd rather be right than good it's just it's virtue it's just virtue signaling i saw
uh it was a long time ago it was like a short clip of a guy um being like i'm homeless like
he had a sign that said homeless and then someone was like actually it's unhoused and then they
walked away like that's so funny fucking solves anything that's so funny like unless you're gonna
like buy him lunch or give him some money then like shut the fuck up the difference between
homeless and unhoused is uh moot yeah yeah anyway anyways we got there from shrekking so i have one
more i forgot what we were talking about i have one more phrase to talk to you about the holy hour
um what oh we've been talking for 50 minutes okay this is short okay um also it's liz's night
to cook and it's eight o'clock here so we gotta i'm sure mr liz is eating my snacks
just like you go home eating his chewing his leg off um okay the the phrase this was a little bit
easier to guess what do you think ghost lighting is ghost lighting okay so there's ghosting and
then there's gaslighting yeah so maybe people who are like they ghosted but then they try to say
like no i didn't ghost you that's exactly right oh my god i nailed it so according to a 2025 piece
in men's health ghost lighting describes when someone ghosts you and then returns and tries
to rewrite reality acting like you misunderstood what happened which we didn't have a word for that
when i was dating but i was ghostly so many fucking times that's a great that's a great
new coined phrase it really really is and it's you know i don't know they're they're naming it
one of the newest harmful dating behaviors to watch out for the washington post is saying that
i fully believe that people are doing that oh my god yeah i mean the fact that you said it happened
to you all the time all the time go sliding they would just fucking disappear and then they would
come back and be like no i was just work was crazy well when i stopped replying like yeah
it was just because i was busy right when i stopped applying you think i'm not busy blocked
you on everything no it never happened but um yeah i just thought that was an interesting uh
turn of phrase love that uh the kids these days are so creative yeah they're creative with the
words of how they're being how they're being mistreated yeah and you know if you can you
got to make art turn your broken heart and turn it into art i fully believe that yeah honestly
like a heartbroken artwork is some of the best absolutely because i know this sounds maybe this
sounds like kind of fucked up but like there is something so beautiful about like heartbreak oh
yeah i mean we've been saying that it does it is so painful though i think it's because it's kind
of like okay you need to grow through this yeah and i think growth is really beautiful and rewarding
um but it does fucking suck it really really does but everything all of it's so universal but it's
also so isolating all of my favorite things in my life are a result of me getting my heart broken
one of our friends is going through a breakup and i constantly am like i don't know how she's doing
it because she she just seems so level-headed about it and i'm like if i were you i'd be
going insane yeah no i mean like i'd be slashing this man's tires and like below the surface
certainly it must be like a like a duck on water kind of situation i would never shut up about it
no um i mean this guy fucking sucks we've been saying that for i was telling mr yeah i do hate
him and i was telling mr liz i was like do you think i should like slash his tires or key his
car or something like i was half joking and then he i was like i would do it for her and then he's
like no you would do it because you hate him and i was like that's true that's so real i would just
what a refrain now i feel like i'm allowed to yeah absolutely yeah i mean hey he would deserve
it you know what this is a call to our audience um if you have a terrible ex write in and tell
me about it and i will i'm a very good person to talk to if you hate somebody she really is
i can co-sign on this and they're ugly and they're short if whenever i'm feeling sad about anything
like related to like like another person if i just send liz one text she just and she'll just
read them to fucking filth and it's it is instant gratification it makes me feel better so quickly
and our friend that's going to the breakup i told her i was like you need to text liz because she
will talk so much shit that will make you feel so good i use my powers i try and use my powers for
for good and you do which is just like there it's something that i hate about myself there
is something in me that like if I'm mad it's like a seek and destroy missile like I just can
if someone is like unkind I can just like immediately identify like their insecurities
and say like the meanest possible thing you can think of like yeah it's so great it it just comes
out of me it's like something takes over my body and to be fair I will say though like I know I
come off as like intense and I've heard that before but like I genuinely it takes so much
for me to be very upset at someone or like be very hateful I just for the most part I'm like
I'm a pretty happy person yeah like I'm I don't know I I love people I love my friends I try and
treat everybody with kindness because also when you're nice to people like you make their day
better like they're more likely to help you like i don't know yeah it's just i i would rather be
kind and good yeah but yeah there's something in me i think it's a self-defense mechanism that
developed over time or it's just like words can be cutting i used to get so angry that like my
eyes would shake i remember you saying that that's crazy luckily that doesn't happen anymore
that's so funny yeah if you need someone to be a hater come to me yeah write us write write to us
and uh you can even send me their social media profile i won't um i won't share their names or
anything but we do need specifics so that she can be as pointed as possible i need to see the things
that they say i need to see who they associate with if i can creep on them the better but she's
a heat seeking lizzle that was a play on heat i like that thank you so much do you have another
term for me I don't those were the only two which is great because I am running out of steam yeah
