My podcast yesterday was all about how I don't feel good. My throat hurts. I feel like I think I have COVID and I think I just have a throat bug. I'm trying to manifest health today. So I'm drinking a latte, like a jackass. I put a little vanilla in it. This vanilla syrup, guys it's probably terrible but hey this is what I'm banking on right now this is why I'm not afraid

of just living normally being like my normal healthy self I went on a walk today got coffee made another coffee I had I have a little sugar in it which is probably not good for um my throat um but I'm banking on my wellness formula tablets my delivery is in it's gonna be here by one every time I get sick or feel something weird in my throat I down like 15 of those it goes away. So I'm, I'll be fine. That's all I'm going to say about my sickness. I went to a candle store this morning. I spilled some candles and I'm feeling, I'm, I'm feeling confident. Uh, no cough, no dry cough, no fever, just positive mind, happy, upbeat, podcast ready. So let's talk about what I did. We're going to go over a couple things today. I'm going to talk about a new goal

I have for 2021. I'm going to talk about the news, obviously. The fuckery going on at the Capitol. And yeah, we're just going to tip tap around some topics today. I don't have a lot to say. I mean, here's the thing. This is where I'm at with a podcast. I feel like I'm confessing something bad. I love it. I love doing this. I enjoy, I enjoy the process, but I think I need next week. I'm going to get, I'm going to get my shit together for you guys. I'm going to get my shit together. I'm going to be taking a lot more notes and coming up with a lot more topics and ideas to talk about throughout because here's the thing I used to sit throughout the day I think about shit all day long right that's why this podcast is great because I have a chance or this

gives me an opportunity to talk about it so I'm not taking notes and writing in my phone like I used to so I'll start doing that I'll do that today hopefully tomorrow's podcast will be a uh, we'll, we'll, we'll do that again. Um, you know, and I want to people watch more on the show. I've got no people walking right now, but usually a people watch, I was doing coffee facts. Here's a coffee fact. I'm drinking Starbucks blonde espresso and my espresso machine. I got to go YouTube a video on how to clean it. It needs to get cleaned out because the pressure wasn't going very hard when it poured when I did this so it's a week it's a week okay what noise did I just make it's a week brew so yeah I just want to like juice up the show but let's talk about

my new goal my new goal for 2021 and I realized it this morning on my walk is I want to go into nature every day. No matter what, I must explore nature. Am I recording? Yeah, I am. I must explore nature and I must talk to strangers every day. I'm just at the point where, I'm just at the point where life is kind of bullshit in a lot of ways right now. This current events with the world and the virus and politics and fuckery it's just fuck it's it's fucking fucked and I'm trying to I just want to talk to more strangers and meet more people this year and you know I was buying this candle I spent a good 30 minutes with a lady selling it to me shout out to um where did I put her business she had a little business card she gave me um is it called wandering often wander

is the brand oh it just fell they sell it at Urban Outfitters they sell it at there's stores everywhere with these often wander candles but I just realized talking to strangers just like sitting and taking my time with people feels good I think I need to do it more often instead of staying cooped up in my house all day like I don't have roommates I have no you know I don't have like a boyfriend or something coming over girlfriends really so um yeah I got to get out in the streets and start talking to strangers. Uh, speaking of talking to strangers, I was talked to by a stranger. Maybe this is what I'll do. I'll go out on the streets. I'll go out on the streets to talk to strangers every day. And then I'll report what the cat call of the day was. Today's

cat call was, I wrote it down to share with you guys. Guy sitting on a picnic bench. Homeless man said oh this is sad because he probably wanted to shower really bad but he said I'd like to shower with you he's sitting there smoking a cigarette I'd like to shower with you and I heard shower I heard it and then I thought well is he maybe he just needs a shower like I don't I don't know I just was like I just kind of like kept walking you know but that was cat call the day I'd like to shower with you um I don't know are you guys into showering shower fuck I struggle with that word yesterday showering with uh people are you into that or is it kind of a shit show are you into the shower thing are you not um I don't know uh okay we could talk about having when when

there's two people in the shower and things that go on but I really don't that's on this is not that kind of podcast so yeah my new goal so nature like I've been doing hikes a lot lately I've been getting outside a lot more than last year already I just want to get out in nature I want to hike I want to go on long bike rides I want to go to the mountains I want to camp in the desert I want to fucking get on a surfboard I want a paddleboard I want to just like be outside all the fucking time because for some reason and this is just honesty right now honest honesty hour I was really like I just was in this routine of living in this fucking RV of an apartment like I just lived in a fancy I was glamping last year last year I was like all right I live and work at home

I just sit here it's cute it's like a little it's like my little dollhouse and I don't really explore. I don't really go out very often. Like I need to make a point to do it. And that's just me being honest. I got in this routine of it. Um, cause I can work, I can literally wake up and work from home, do everything from home and not have to go outside. And you know what I got to say, mom, you were right. You're like, if you live in San Diego, why aren't you at the beach every fucking day? What's the point of living there? She's got a point. Uh, so yeah, I've been enjoying like this morning I felt very European in my I didn't put on like a workout outfit to go walk I just put on like a normal outfit and I walked around the neighborhood I bought a candle

from this I started talking to a lady she sucked me into buying a new candle I'm part of a candle club now it's more like a candle cult I think that's it's more of a cult than a club but basically they're all about recycle reduce reuse so when you're done burning it you bring it back and they'll refill it for you for half off or something so yeah I just like went and bought a candle I walked into this little Italian what's it called bodega type of fucking place um looked at some jarred anchovies and tomatoes and I checked out their produce section I'm like I could grocery shop here if I just need a couple things if I'm out of lettuce I can go buy it there and I didn't know that so I went and checked that little place out and then I bought my new beans

from Starbucks I know what you're thinking like Jacqueline why do you like drinking Starbucks espresso well I like drinking I just like drinking it okay I don't need to I just like it when I make coffee in my new espresso machine at home with Starbucks beans it tastes like I'm going through the drive-thru at Starbucks buying a Starbucks and like that's the same it's the same taste so I just I like it I've I've worked at a coffee shop before with really fancy beans I know all about the you know the scent and the aroma and the roast and the where the beans come from and the like the specific details like I've learned I've nerded out to that before but honestly I just go back to Starbucks and I, and I like it every time. So, or I almost prefer it. Um, it's like

going to McDonald's and getting a, like, where else are you going to get a fish filet that tastes as good as McDonald's? You know, it's like you want that fish filet McDonald's taste or nuggets. Like there's a specific taste you can only get there and that's goes, that's goes for Starbucks. So yeah, those are my new goals. Um, it sounds simple, but yeah, nature and strangers every day. if I even you know I might even have to walk to like the corner store just to talk to the clerk oh that's not a cute word clerk I might have to go walk well there's actually there's a coffee stand close to me I could just like roll outside and go to I could just go and say hi and then go back in my apartment if it's like 10 p.m 10 p.m and I haven't talked to a stranger I'm gonna go

out of my fucking way to talk to strangers for this whole year I'm gonna practice talking with people more. Fuck. I'm going to practice having conversations with people for the rest of the year. And then I'll invite guests on. No, I'm kidding. This sounds sad. Jacqueline, don't you have friends? Don't you have anyone to talk to? Yes, of course. But I'm just like, I need to be in public. That's the whole reason for this. I need to be like out, involved in my country, in my fucking neighborhood. And I'm not. And I feel weird about that. so yeah was it antifa dressed up in maga outfits yesterday is that what i saw do you guys do you guys see what i'm seeing is that what it was i don't want to plant little seeds in your head

but i was on i was on uh the internet cruising seeing people's posts i'm like it's like they're trying to start another race war i'm changing the subject by the way let me take a sip of coffee to transition it's like they're trying to start another fucking race war look how the white people were handled versus the black people at the capital these if they were black people they'd all be fucking shot and dead and i'm like looking at this like i feel like maga people wouldn't be that fucking bat shit and crawling all over things and like and and there were videos like i did see a viral video go around who know like again i'm not trying of plant seeds and be a conspiracy conspiracy theorist but there's antifa people there so

i don't know it seems choreographed it seems ridiculous like doesn't that so at a fucking government building with high profile people wouldn't you think that would be an immediate shutdown like fucking in 30 seconds people are getting shot it's like aggressively handled that's why i'm like what the it's like this is just this is just a big fucking movie we watched yesterday and i don't know like again i don't want to be that conspiracy theorist whatever you want but it just seems like it's not and maybe that's the oh well it's just white privilege is being put put out in front of us right now like look at how easy it was for the white people to go in there and do that that's the whole point like they got away with it they

were sitting in the chairs sitting at the desks like being jackasses crawling around shit but i just have this weird like feeling about it that i don't know it's like again they're trying to start another race war they're just trying to make race a big they're just continuing that narrative and they i don't know who they are i don't know anything about what's going on really but i would i i wonder if um you know maga type folk or whatever proud boy folk are gonna say that that wasn't them like i don't know was it or were those a bunch of dressed up people i feel like it was a bunch of antifa dressed up because a lot of the people that talk the that talk for the community the the trump or the trumpets the trump supporters a lot of people that talk about their

community and what they're what they stand for they're against writing making blowing shit up fires being crazy asses like antifa like they're against that they're like we're respectful we're honorable they're all about like we're wholesome we don't fucking tear shit up and do that and climb on buildings and stand next to statues and do crazy shit so it's very interesting it's like i said yesterday a bunch of five-year-old grown men or a bunch of little five-year-olds having a tantrum crawling all over shit I the reason I'm saying crawling all over shit is it looks so like just I don't want to say the r word I can't say that's it you can't oh my I think my Amazon driver just yep wellness formula tablets I could pause this and go take like the 15 and then

revive myself on on the the show today um it just looked like a big giant like playground they are running around on I don't know and here's something I saw too let me tell you this story and I don't know what you if you've got if you guys have seen this um little homemade video someone shot in the I'll tell you hold on I gotta pause this I'm on YouTube my camera still only records 20 minutes at a time I gotta get a new setup by the way go to YouTube and watch this I'm here Monday through Friday I'm chilling in a big coat today no makeup hair in a bun I put some sunglasses on because I'm feeling angsty and I'm feeling kind of sick and I just didn't want to put makeup on and I'm too insecure to go on camera with no makeup because you know I don't want to

get judged so go on YouTube to watch I'm kidding bye okay well I want to tell you about the video one sec so there's this black guy with a stick and then he was one of the guards or one of the police guys in the Capitol trying to stop the protest the rioter people coming in and there's someone filming this vertical iphone style video filming this one black man it's like where were the other people where was the backup where was anyone at why was someone filming this one black guy with a stick no gun nothing and then like 60 white maga looking dudes coming at him up these stairs it just looked like it was worse like that was like staged like we're gonna show how this black guys handling the white guys like it was just it's like too i don't know i was like if

this is really what it was that's pretty this is the issue let me get to this real quick social media is responsible for like oh this shit we are so fucking influenced and our ideas about what's going on are directly related to what we're scrolling through every day as a collective like we're all on our social media it's like the social dilemma movie documentary on Netflix and we have different lenses different viewpoints and I feel like I don't know the reason I'm saying this is like I don't know what's truth I don't know what's real i hear i see things on social media that are in the conspiracy category that people are just

theorizing like me saying antifa was dressed up as maga like that's just some theory you know so i hear stuff like that those seeds are planted in my head and then i watch the news and then it's like well the media lies all the time so i don't know what to believe and that's what this all comes down to nobody fucking knows what's real and what's not and i'm just having fun with it honestly, I'm just like, you know what? Keep yourself alive, bitch. Keep yourself alive. Goal 2021. I'm adding to it. I'm adding to the list. Just keep yourself alive, okay? You got one job. Survive. That's what humans do. We're all a bunch of animals. All we think about all day, we're not getting chased by a saber-toothed tiger anymore. So we worry about things like

relationships, government, you know, ourselves. We sit and think about ourselves and we are like trying to survive right food well that's easy we can get it anywhere um but yeah that's like just go back to that if you're a little bit like fucked up from this event you watched yesterday at the capitol just remember just survive who gives a fuck as long as you're staying alive you're you're gonna be fine right is not the goal every day just don't die this sounds this isn't gonna okay i'm not gonna say this isn't gonna age well i'm just saying like have some perspective a lot of this a lot of the times I see crazy shit happen on the news I'm like okay so it's either very real and this is exactly what happened and this is not some planned event or it's very planned

and very choreographed and very staged and I just go well I I just say I don't know that's my favorite thing i don't know i don't know we'll find out you know so in other news congress certified joe biden as the president i think that was eight hours ago on twitter i did see that and i'm starting to think you know why is pence making all these statements where's trump did they invoke the 25th amendment on his ass and we're not because i mean like they deleted tweets or he was banned from like social media and he hasn't been coming out and saying shit so i'm like did they invoke that 25th amendment i don't know what to like i don't know what else to say like where is trump what's happening

um congress let me go to the you know twitter's a piece of shit sometimes but for news you can kind of get a nice little headline to tell you what's going on congress affirms joe biden's victory as the next president of the united states congressional leaders continue to debate and vote through the night after a breach by a pro-trump mob at the u.s capital on wednesday forced members of the house and senate to suspend the joint session congress certified the president elect elects 306 electoral votes early thursday it's thursday so it's official guys can we just ride the way i said this yesterday let's just ride the wave ride the fucking wave four more years just like ride the wave survive just stay on the

stay on your grind try to be a good person like okay if this comes down to your life being fucked over who's okay re-say re-say that everyone now would be a good time to assess and you had a whole year last year to do it what's important, what you need to work on, where you're slacking in life and get your fucking bases covered. Okay. I'm talking everything from how are you making your money grow and work? Like, how are you making money work for you? Figure that shit out. If you're not figuring that shit out, it's dying. Money in the bank is dying. It's not doing anything. Figure out a way to make money work for you there's a huge base to cover that will help you not be fucked in your

future and you know what maybe an emergency emergency survival kit maybe that maybe you should stock up on some supplies so we got a couple polar opposite things there um tighten up like you know what make try to make boss up your life or like level up your life so no matter what's happening in the world, you're fucking rock solid, and work on that, and yourself, and your relationships, try to be a good person, a good friend, a good boyfriend, girlfriend, whatever it is, like, that's what I can't stop preaching, because all of the other shit you can't control is bullshit, because it, the reason I'm saying this is, if you're fucking annoyed, if Congress, if the if health care changes and things come down to affordability and access and

like get to the point where it won't you're fine if it if you don't get that stimulus check if you don't have that um free health care plan you have to pay for whatever i don't know what i'm saying does that make sense okay so yeah it's the 25th so where's trump i'm gonna just type in where's trump on twitter oh my god no this is a awful is burping a covid symptom several of the pro-trump rioters who rampaged the u.s capital were heard screaming where is Mike Pence a source said frightening the vice president and his family okay that's not what I was looking for the FBI tweeted FBI is seeking to identify individual FBI is seeking to identify individuals and instigating violence okay we don't give a fuck people are doing it they're

gonna find you they're gonna come for you okay where's Trump I don't know they're just not there's nothing here but yeah I just it feels like they invoke that 25th amendment I'm like where what's happening um what else do I have here to talk about today I'm just like one last glance at my notes I wrote I slept good still feel sick walked and got uh coffee and a candle my COVID-19 test at the candle store uh talked about the cat call my new goal strangers in nature every day. Uh, talked about some of the current events. It's Thursday. You really got to focus up right now. You really got to focus up right now. Like that's where I'm at. I'm like, shut the, shut the noise out. Of course, every time you turn on the news,

the TV. It's going to be negative. It's going to be insane, chaotic. Uh, so let's pretend throwing my notebook. Oh, almost fell, but it didn't. Oh, that was very lucky. I love when I throw shit on my table and like it stays. So let's pretend we're on an island, a deserted island, and we have no fucking clue what's happening at the Capitol. We don't know what's going on with American politics. We don't know shit. Like, take your life now and just put yourself on a deserted island. Just you and your life. Fucking, I keep hitting that home. Like, I really mean it, though. Really, like, focus up. Have discipline around checking the news and stewing over it and like like I caught myself listening to Ben Shapiro

I just like you know a few a few minutes of him every day you just like hear his take and it's you know he's got his fucking mindset about all this but I like to just hear hear it for a little bit but I caught myself today on the way to get coffee on my walk I was like i just i need to this is i know what i'm gonna get here i know what i just i know what he's gonna say i don't need to sit and take an hour to listen to the whole episode so i cut myself off and then i listen to my country music to reset my strong american values um is that gonna sound that's probably not gonna sound good if i keep saying that because a bunch of white dudes singing songs there are some black country singers in fact i was on black country tiktok

that's a fucking vibe girls out there okay if you're into country guys there's an entire sector of tiktok stars black guys with cowboy hats on and they're like on a farm they got their boots they got their fucking cattle they're on a horse they're doing uh fucking what's it called uh they're herding cattle they're on bull riding it's just like a vibe and so I don't know because for some reason when I say I listen to country music in the morning to reset my strong American values I feel like a fucking racist piece of shit because I feel like everyone be like it's you're just a white girl that listens like it's all about like fucking those are a bunch of former slave owners and what am I saying that for white guys singing country songs

god damn it that's not what I meant but like but I just cut myself off a bunch of here I was like I just know what I'm going to get here. So be disciplined around that. Be disciplined around your routines. I'm really trying to work on getting myself tight. Physically and routinely. Routinely tight.

I got specific things I execute every single day at certain times and I do it and I accomplish it and I grind, grind, grind, grind, grind and I feel good And then I love, like, I have this time of day now where I go in my head. I'm like, Jacqueline, you worked your ass off. You can chill now.

And I feel good about that decision to chill. Because I'm really getting shit done. So speaking of getting right and tight in my bod, I was walking today and I was like, I feel my abs like in a different way than I felt them before. I was like, oh, this is happening. shout out Travis Travis Elliott on YouTube for kicking my ass with yoga um I feel like I haven't I don't know like as far as health and fitness goes I feel like I've been on point as fuck lately I just I think I got all that shitty food out of my system at the end of the year at my mom's house and I was like I don't even want it I keep making green spirulina

smoothies ginger and lemon and then I like eat a bunch of like I just eat a lot of greens right now and I feel really good so um that's going well health fitness um happiness up job great everything's like fucking rock solid right now um should I I haven't really been on I'll be honest I haven't really been on um Instagram lately I haven't been posting my stories I don't really promo my podcast there anymore I don't really you know it's probably a bad idea as a business woman as a shrewd business woman I probably should post about my podcast like every day but I don't know if you know about it you know about it if you're one of the like 18,000 people I don't know how many 18 million people that listen to this

you're in the know you're in the cool club you're in the TJMS gang but I definitely need to do more live streams. I like sitting and chit-chatting with you guys. I like, um, doing live podcasts where I, uh, take questions and I sit there and talk. So, you know, I'm just trying to like ride out this sore throat. I have, I could chew. I'm sick. Ride this out, ride this weekend out. uh you know just like get back on the promo game next week I think I'll start posting every day like the the podcast of the day the links that you know um yeah I'm really happy I'm like wait I feel really good right now is it the is it the caffeine hitting it's like the the third hit oh man it's so good guys i get this coconut creamer and i have these vanilla stevia drops

i just like fucking make the best little coffee concoction of all time i'm stalling i'm like what else do i talk about i'll just go to the explore page here on senator chuck schumer joins calls on vp pence to invoke 25th amendment to remove trump from office amid violence at Capitol. You know, what's Candace Owens saying about this? I was watching what, okay, so it's like Candace Owens on one side, Escocia, or Acacia, AOC on the other side. I don't know how to say her name. Escocia Cortez. Escocia, right? Escocia. I sound like such an asshole right now. But there's like two women on the other, you know, both in politics. So I go to like AOC's Twitter and then I go to Candace Owens. So let's go to Candace. I know AOC is definitely

talk about that 25th amendment candace owens says okay she's posting pictures of fire um do you guys think what is happening to dc right now will be characterized as mostly peaceful protests or does that media spin only work when antifa spends an entire year writing looting and beating law-abiding citizens just curious that's a great point so everything that we saw all the shit on fire the antifa uh peeps earlier last year was characterized as peaceful protests right but this is going to be called. Riding, looting, whatever. Raiding, destroying, who knows? It's a good point. She's also saying, nations always progress through the following sequence, from bondage

to great faith, from faith to great courage, courage to liberty, liberty to abundance, abundance to selfishness selfishness to complacency complacency to dependence from dependence back into bondage that's what's we don't want to be dependence is not good we're at the i would say we're at the abundance to selfishness transition everything's abundant we can't we're fucking gluttons out here in this bitch selfishness to complacency complacency to independence what are people replying didn't say in there i'm on candace owens instagram or excuse me twitter if you're curious i'm just like i like to check in with and see what people are saying are you gonna credit that comment to somebody or is it an original thought

all elections need to happen in person over a week's time frame to live by the national guard yeah we definitely need to tighten up how the election rolls out because I think you're missing the point if we don't address the selfishness slash complacency then bondage is inevitable but that means we must acknowledge it okay I don't know it's just some like tweet she posted you know but yeah dependency is the end we don't want to get dependent dependency is not good it's a slippery slope if we need that money from that if we are depending on that stimulus check we're fucked if you're depending on that stimulus check to make it. You're fucked. Figure that out. That's all I'm going to say. I think I'm going to end the show

here. Um, I'm going to work today, upload this podcast, uh, take 15 wellness formula tablets and report tomorrow. If my symptoms cleared, I just hate having, this is what sucks. I'm like, I'm trying to enjoy my coffee and my throat hurts yesterday. Everything tasted weird. So I was paranoid, but I just don't like how my throat hurts. And then everything's kind of just annoying to eat and drink and eat and drink so I'll report all my symptoms if my wellness formula tablets worked um I'm getting my pillows delivered today new pillows on my bed by the way the sheets last night I slept on my new sheets I think I should have washed them first um they were they didn't rock my world the comfort wasn't like they were very cooling but I'm kind of

iffy on the material I think I need to wash them to like really see how they because sheets kind of get better over time as you wash them I feel like so I need to give them some more time um but yeah I'm getting pillows delivered I'm gonna do some yoga tonight um I might paint my nails guys I'm like a shit show I have no makeup no nails done I just need to get my tan on something you know a little fake tan moment and i might record uh some videos for patreon i will do that i'm going to upload a little i think i'm going to do what's in my fridge for patreon so if you're curious if you want to see that kind of shit um apartment stuff behind the scenes studio stuff go to patreon.com slash tjms
