If you have questions or concerns about your gambling or someone close to you, So I guess Elon Musk is buying Twitter.
And he filed to close the deal at the original price,
which is kind of weird because after all the fighting, he just said, all right, yeah, I'll buy it for what I agreed to buy it for.
And then Twitter has formally responded saying, OK, we're going to sell.
And now apparently there are messages being posted anonymously by Twitter staff freaking out because, well, here we go.
So I don't know what else to add to the story because it's just like an echo of the story that already happened back in, when was this, like April or something?
Elon announces he's going to buy the platform.
All these woke journalists and leftists are screaming like, no, we'll lose control of
the narrative.
And then Elon says, I don't want to buy it.
And they all start laughing, saying, ha ha, you're not going to buy it.
Now he's buying it and their brains are exploding.
But here's where it gets crazy.
Elon could own Twitter within 72 hours.
They're going to finalize the deal
and it could be done.
And then I certainly hope
the moment he signs the paperwork,
he goes, okay, now reinstate Trump.
I just, that's just, there you go.
There's a handful of other people.
We got to get Carl Benjamin back on the platform.
He's a good friend
and he deserves to be back on the platform
as well as many other people.
You know, you've mentioned Miley Anopolis,
Laura Loomer, among many others, Alex Jones. So it should be interesting. So we'll talk about that.
But the reasons as to why Elon Musk is doing this are interesting. A lot of people are saying it's
because he was going to lose this lawsuit anyway. But I wonder if it has something to do with
another story. Elon Musk said that bots were piling on his polls when he was calling for
peace in Ukraine. I wonder if this was a catalyst,
seeing a bunch of bots advocate
for what is potentially World War III.
And he was like, okay, we're going to buy Twitter
and just finally put an end to this.
Like this was the straw in the camel's back.

Who are you?
I am the redheaded libertarian.
You can find me at TRHLOfficial on Twitter.
And I just, I like the constitution.
I talk about that a lot.
I just,
I like to be silly.
Um,
you get a mixed bag with me.
I have a fancy cat.
His name's Figaro.
Um,
so those are,
those are kind of,
kind of the,
the big points.
Well,
all right.
Thanks for joining us.
And we also have Corey DeAngelis.
Yo,
I'm in Ian's spot now, and this is kind of interesting.
He has a lot of stuff going on over here.
There's like some toilet paper.
I don't know.
I have lots of questions.
That's actually Luke's.
What are you doing over here?
That's not me.
That's on Ian's side of the table.
Okay.
But yes, Corey DeAngelis.
I'm a senior fellow at the American Federation for Children.
It's good to be here.
I'm a school choice advocate, and's uh basically what i do i might have
some competition here with josie but that's another topic here anyway my name is lucard
ask you if we are changed at oregon today i'm definitely wearing my free as a bird shirt yeah
that's the official name of it with of course elon musk smoking a doobie inside of the twitter
logo which you could exclusively get as a member of lucancenter.com for the cost of its production
and because you do that that's why i'm here thank you so much for having me i want that shirt i'm logo, which you could exclusively get as a member of lukeuncensored.com for the cost of its production.
And because you do that, that's why I'm here.
Thank you so much for having me.
I want that shirt.
I'm pretty jealous.
Yeah, you can order it so that you can order from Luke because Luke is our humble t-shirt salesman.
We keep on hand.
I'm competing for crazy shirt.
Mine's brighter than his, but his is more topical than mine.
I'm excited for tonight's conversation.
Let's get into it.
Here we go.
From Engadget, Twitter confirms it intends to close deal with Elon Musk.
Twitter has again agreed to let Elon Musk buy the company.
They say the agreement follows months of legal drama after Musk tried to back out of his original agreement to buy the company for $44 billion this spring.
The two sides were set to go to trial later this month as Twitter attempted to force Musk to keep up his end of the agreement. Musk had claimed Twitter had misled him about the number of bots on the platform and had raised concerns about issues disclosed by the company's former head of security who filed a whistleblower complaint.
So Twitter investor relations tweets.
Twitter issued this statement about today's news.
We have received a letter from the Musk parties, which they have filed with the SEC.
The intention of the company is to close the transaction at $54.20 per share.
The question, why did Elon Musk try backing out,
go into this big legal drama,
and then abruptly just agree to the original sale price?
I mean, my attitude was, couldn't he have at least tried to lower the price?
Like, oh, okay, we're going to go to court.
It's going to be a waste of time.
How about we do 50 bucks per share, call it a day?
Twitter would probably have been like, okay, fine.
Just, well, if you agree to that,
then we're going to get an approval from the shareholders
and then we're done.
Instead, he just comes out like, yeah, it's good.
Just full thing, whatever.
Why?
What's going on here?
Was it because he was embarrassed
by the leaked text messages or what?
I'm an optimist.
I think he wanted to expose the bots.
Why back out?
Well, there's a number of theories.
The corporate media is running with a theory
that he was hiding from disclosure,
that already the text messages that were released
were allegedly embarrassing
and that he didn't want more disclosure.
That's one of the theories that's out there
by the corporate media
that they're counting as the truth. But I think personally, I think a lot of it had to do
with the spat that he had with the Ukrainian president, especially with him trying to offer
some kind of negotiation or peace deal, bring that conversation to the forefront where he was
dogpiled by the NPCs and by the corporate establishment that, of course, punished him
and tried to make him seem
like a bad guy because he was trying to prevent a nuclear war. So that, to me, was just absurd to
see that kind of conversation unfold with Zelensky's advisor literally sending out a photo of him
photoshopped as a Ukrainian traitor. That's crazy. In handcuffs. In handcuffs. But I mean, come on,
Luke. Guys, you agree with me, right? There's too many people. Nuclear war would be a good thing.
Just too many of them.
Okay, Bill Gates Jr. there.
This is another thing to understand here around the Elon Musk Ukraine controversy,
because Elon Musk provided Ukraine with Starlink,
which a lot of military analysts and experts are saying is one of the reasons
why Ukrainians are having such major victories inside of this larger proxy war between Russia because of the GPS, satellite tracking, the weapon systems all depend on the Internet.
And the Google CEO, Eric Schmidt, former Google CEO, who's also working on the Pentagon lead defense innovation board, came out and said that Elon Musk is the true hero when it comes to the
war in Ukraine. So to have the Ukrainian president, to have his advisors, to have the Ukrainian people
lash out at him and punish him when he already contributed so much to the Ukrainian people for
this conflict is really something that I think might have hurt Elon Musk and might have added
to this larger decision for him to buy Twitter, since, of course, he was painted as the boogeyman, as the bad guy for trying to
prevent a nuclear war. Yeah, diplomacy nowadays is so rare that they frame it as treason.
Yeah, I mean, look, I'm really happy about Elon Musk buying Twitter finally. I think I've been
waiting for this for a long time. But, you know, he is kind of the bad guy because I've lost like 2,500 followers within the past
day so he has some explaining to do I don't know why a lot of us I think here and Spike Cohen
the VP candidate for the Libertarian Party in 2020 tweeted out that he had lost 2,000 followers
too so I don't know what the theory is for why that's happening, perhaps Twitter's cleaning up all the bots and hiding that so that when Elon Musk takes control, he'll look under the hood.
I got two conspiracy theories for you.
One is anti-Elon.
One is pro-Elon.
All right.
We'll start with the anti-Elon one first.
Elon Musk announces he wants to buy Twitter because he really does.
He says, I'm going to buy it at $54 a share. He then tries to back out
and plays this big game, which ultimately
saw Twitter's stock drop down
into the mid-30s or something like this.
One of the things we heard with this
deal, Elon is going to
some of the other investors,
that Saudi prince, I think,
and he's telling them,
vote to let this
go private. Keep your shares.
I'm going to buy up as much as I can.
And then you can keep yours if you agree to take the company private because I'm going to fix it.
And then when it goes public again, your stocks are going to be worth way, way more.
So the idea is he doesn't need to buy every single share from every single person if he can work out these agreements with the big investors.
So the stock price drops 35. A bunch of people hearing the news he's going to do this start buying up stock at the cheap price thinking, ooh, maybe I'll get a chance to hold on to this
when it goes private because, you know, then once it goes public again, I'll make a bunch of money.
And Elon then basically knows if a ton of people buy at the low rate, agree with him and
take it private, he doesn't need to buy their shares. It's going to save him a ton of money.
Now, I don't know if that's possible, if it makes sense. I was talking to Will Chamberlain about it.
He says, no. I was talking to him in the context of he does this, his buddies buy up from people
at 35 bucks, then knowing they're not going to have to
sell to elon that them holding it basically allows him to take it private and he said it's a really
bad time to try and do any kind of financial malfeasance because you're under such scrutiny
but maybe maybe that's why i said conspiracy theory here's the other one elon musk was talking
about bots luke pointed this out he was saying you know hey vote on this should ukraine offer
up some kind of peace agreement?
He was saying that.
Should the people of Ukraine vote?
But no, he's saying the UN should oversee the Donbass region elections.
And then Crimea should be returned to Russia as it's been for a long time.
And then the Ukrainians started attacking him.
He gets dogpiled.
Originally, the poll says, yes, let's have peace. But then all of a sudden it flips to no, no peace, no agreement.
Elon says the bots came out in force for this one.
I'm wondering if that was it.
I mean, look, he's been playing games with this lawsuit for a long time.
If he was really concerned with the lawsuit, wouldn't he have just conceded a long time ago?
So I'm wondering if he saw this and he got really, really pissed off at a bunch of bots voting to say yes
to potentially nuclear World War III.
And he's like, I'm buying it.
And he's going to go in
because bots are what he's been complaining about
for the longest time.
And he's just going to just wipe the slate
on all these bots.
And then he's going to bring Donald Trump back.
Do you think Donald Trump will hurt
or help the stock price?
Oh, he'll help.
He'll help.
No, it's going to skyrocket.
Yeah, he was their bread and butter before
when he had an account
yeah but i don't think trump would do it i don't think trump will come back no because it'll social
but it's not just that it's like don't they have dwack or whatever trump world acquisition corp
like you know digital world acquisition corp or something like that well trump also made a public
statement saying i don't want to be back on twitter i won't be back on twitter even if elon
musk buys twitter he said this a couple months ago i don't want to be back on Twitter. I won't be back on Twitter even if Elon Musk buys Twitter. He said this a couple of months ago. I don't know if his opinion changed,
especially with all the presidential races. I think we understand the importance of big tech
social media. So does Elon Musk. And there was a couple of things leading up to this. Before the
whole spite between Ukraine and Elon Musk, he sent out a meme a couple of days ago that said,
those who don't study
history are doomed to repeat it. Yet those who do study history are doomed to stand by helplessly
while everyone else repeats it. So him after posting that meme came up with a proposition
to bring peace to Ukraine. It wasn't a perfect proposition, but at least the conversation
started. There hasn't been a conversation on peace deals.
There have been a lot of peace deals offered that were very close to being achieved,
especially one by Turkey,
especially one that the Ukrainians and Russians agreed to.
Western powers said no.
Western media is saying no peace.
And their strategy here isn't really a smart one.
It's let's push Putin into a corner.
That's phase one.
Phase two, phase three, we don't know what that is yet, but let's just Putin into a corner. That's phase one. Phase two, phase three,
we don't know what that is yet,
but let's just escalate this situation.
And it's mind-boggling.
It's so crazy that out of everything that's happening right now,
hey, we have a situation that is bringing us
on the brink of nuclear war.
Hey, let's repeat those same policies
and double down on them.
It is exactly the underpants gnomes
where they have the one,
like, we're going to do this, and then the next line is the question where they have the the one like we're gonna do this
and then the next line is the question marks and then the final line is profit yeah step one steal
steal underpants step two question mark step three profit exactly that's the one so i i was you know
i was thinking about this with um you know nuclear war and how they're really really advocating for
this conflict they really don't want any kind of settlement arrangement and i was thinking also
about you know depopulation conspiracies and things like that. And you know what I like to say
is the only difference between what's actually happening in a conspiracy theory is the conspiracy
theory implies intent. If you remove the hypothesis of intent from an individual, you no longer have
a conspiracy theory. You have literally what's happening. So for example, what's going on with
everything on the left?
Telling farmers not to farm.
There's a food shortage.
Sterilizing kids.
Aborting kids.
Advocating war.
Whether they, if you want to say it's because they intend to reduce the population.
Okay, that's a conspiracy theory.
If you say, I don't know why they're doing it, but the end result is the reduction of
population.
Well, that's literally what's happening.
So I thought about something interesting.
I have a series of tweets that I tweet frequently where I just, you know, I, I, I say something,
I tweet things that I kind of feel are like, they should be cancelable things. Like,
like I tweeted several times, have you considered spaying and neutering your kids to prevent
overpopulation? And I've tweeted things like the upside to abortion is that there's too many
children and we need less people on the planet.
Like these should be things that ever, like anyone ever said seriously,
people should be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, come on.
But there's not, not only does it break no rules on Twitter to ask people to like
consider sterilizing their children.
There's no outrage from the media at all.
I was thinking about this.
I bet if I tweet things like war is good because there's too many people,
they will completely ignore it. If I tweet, it's great that children are being
sterilized, they'll completely, lo and behold, the media doesn't care one bit. There's no smears,
no cancellation. I just, I don't know what their intent is, but for whatever reason,
everything is pointing in one direction. These actions will result in much less people.
Have you ever been suspended for anything like that or any of the tweets removed?
Have you ever been suspended from Twitter?
I've been locked out.
When they banned the groomer stuff, they retroactively enforced it against me.
And so I had to delete the tweet.
I'm like, I don't care about Twitter.
People are like, leave your messages up.
I'm like, dude, it's Twitter.
I'll just say something else weird. I don't know. So I just took them down as whatever. You got to misspell it.
That's the trick. Ah, yeah. It's right in code. I mean, you can just keep changing the word. It's
like Grover's. Yep. Exactly. So like taking a step back, I mean, Elon Musk started this whole
conversation about acquiring Twitter because he said it was so important. It's the public sphere. We have to have great discussion. It's how we uphold democracy. Why not buy the whole school system and
have a better investment because we have millions of kids going to government schools
where they're being indoctrinated to think like socialists when they grow up.
And I think that's even more detrimental to society than the public sphere when it comes to Twitter. The thing is, the public school system
is way too expensive. Elon Musk can't afford it. Abolish it. No, no. I mean, imagine what you could
buy with $44 billion. How many politicians could you get in your lap? How many of them can you have
barking and jumping up and down when you tell them to jump? I think all of them. You have enough
money. You could have done that.
But I think he also understands that big tech social media is a power that is even beyond the U.S. government
when it comes to flexing its ability to influence society.
And you could even see through the disclosures, through the text messages that were received,
him saying, quote, he wants to rein in big tech.
These are the words of Elon Musk from the text messages that were received him saying quote he wants to reign in big tech these are the words
of elon musk from the text messages that were released he's saying quote our public square
needs not to have arbitrary sketch censorship and that quote we have right now what we have
right now is hidden corruption we're allowed uh we're allowed to do this segment right now this
next one we're we've earned it it and we are now going to gloat
over the woke Twitter employees
who are losing their minds.
So Mediaite reports
Twitter employees explode
over Musk deal.
Cue the layoffs.
Maybe.
I bet a lot of these people
are going to quit.
Daniel Sullivan says
the reaction from Twitter employees
on Team Blind,
an app that allows people
at different companies
to post anonymously
is something to behold.
Here's one.
So we've got an angry, triggered billionaire going to own us who's looking for vengeance.
The worst financial market in years. Hiring freezes everywhere. Q4 is looking great.
Twitter employees heard the news of the latest development in Musk's potential purchase
while they were in a meeting discussing the company's goals in 2023.
Living the plot of succession is effing exhausting rum and chattery twitter's director of machine
learning ethics transparency and accountability tweeted in reaction to the musk news daniel
sullivan said this twitter employee sums up what i'm hearing from folks inside the company today
and uh that's too bad ej samson says i encourage every twitter employee to go outside and take a
walk yes never boring over here yeah congratulations. You know, it's just the weirdest thing.
The cult is the weirdest thing to me.
You know, they just,
in order to be in this cult,
you have to not read the news ever.
And so we'll get into this a little bit,
but I was talking about BLM
and Kanye West earlier on my other show.
And if you look at Democrats
or if you look at 18 to 35 year olds,
they have tremendous net support for BLM. And then you look at Democrats or if you look at 18 to 35 year olds, they have tremendous net support for BLM.
And then you look at every other demographic and it's just like underwater independent voters.
It's a negative 12 net support.
Only Democrats support them.
And I'm like, it's the perfect example.
These people are freaking out because the only way the cult exists is that they isolate people from information.
The only reason why these young people support BLM is because they don't read the news.
They're more subject-driven and not object-driven. So you get older, you start focusing more on your
family, you start reading the news and seeing what's going on in the world, and you say,
oh, okay, here's what's happening. When you're younger, you're like, what are my friends doing?
What are my friends talking about? And your friends will just all repeat whatever lies
are filtered to them. This is obviously why these people in particular, well, they're losing their minds over this.
The cult is going to implode without Twitter.
I mean, they have Tumblr, I guess, but I don't know how much that's going to do for them.
Well, it's funny watching these people just switch immediately.
The same people saying, oh, Twitter is a private company.
They could do whatever they want.
Not everybody needs to be on the platform. Now they're like they want you you you every not everybody no what do we do no no not that now you have uh proposals from the white house right uh calling to um censor the internet yeah ai bill of rights yeah that's what
they came out with uh the hill did an article on this today was it democrats uh the white house
so i'm guessing.
Yes.
Whoever works there who really knows anyone.
And this is basically you can't get banned?
Yeah, yeah.
You have the right to a person as opposed to an algorithm.
It's just a list.
It's a proposal that's going to go through Congress.
Well, it's funny how it switches almost immediately.
Yeah, yeah.
Our people aren't in charge anymore.
The same day.
It happened today.
So obviously a lot of people at Twitter will be scrambling with this news today.
According to the New York Post, 68% of Twitter employees disapprove of Musk and his vision for Twitter.
And for what he sees for the company that especially wants to make sure that people are going to be at the workplace and not just doing all the work at
home. But it's not just Twitter employees that are going to be scrambling here. It's also a lot
of government officials who are now going to be like, okay, now we have to prevent this from
happening. Because once you open the floodgates of free speech, you have the potential of really
making the world a better place. You have the potential of exposing a lot of sinister, nefarious
things in our existence that could be stopped through transparency and accountability.
The government is deathly afraid of this.
And I could imagine I could see new rules, new regulations when it comes to social media.
As already, they have a lot of secret orders. in, as we recently learned from Alex Berenson, that they are the ones, the federal government,
the White House, ordering the censorship of political voices of scientists, of doctors,
medical professionals, and even memers and individuals who, of course, do parody accounts of Dr. Fauci, have all had their accounts shut down because the federal government and
the Biden administration said, no, we can't allow this, which is absolutely crazy.
And they're not going to be able to censor those New York Post articles.
Well, Elon Musk also a couple of days ago was interacting with the CEO of Rumble,
and he was showing interest in working with Rumble before this major acquisition
of Twitter, which he now has announced as of today. So there's also that as well.
There is something called the Twitter Trusted Partnership and Twitter Partner Support
Portal that allows the government to issue censorship orders.
Twitter agreed to comply with this to avoid regulatory oversight.
There's a.
Wow.
There's an art.
This was a few years ago where this happened.
And it was there's one newspaper that covered it because nobody's going to talk about that.
It was the NC Daily Gazette.
The question, I have that.
The question, I guess, is will these woke people stay on Twitter?
Because their argument is, if Elon buys Twitter, we're leaving.
It's like, oh, yeah, where?
Where?
Where are you going?
Where are you going to go?
Facebook?
I mean, if they go somewhere else, they're going to get a gab.
Yeah, if they go somewhere else, I mean, the Amazon and Google will allow it,
unlike with Parler, right?
Right.
Yeah, but Mastodon's been around for a while,
and it's got,
it's like this very, very leftist version of Twitter.
It's so woke that when,
who's that guy who played that annoying kid on Star Trek?
Everybody, Will Wheaton.
There you go.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, even when he left Twitter and went there,
they banned him.
Oh my gosh.
That's how woke and far left they are.
They were like, no, Wil Wheaton, you're a fascist.
And he's like an annoying liberal dude.
So, I mean, they tried.
It didn't work.
Yeah, I think it's going to be a dramatic shift.
There's one dude from NBC who's claiming this funny, this tweet where he's like, now that they're going private, the rules can be whatever they want.
And it's just like, you've literally been advocating for that the whole time that's literally what they do but what they're really showing is that
they are terrified they have lost control of the narrative machine and the crazy thing about it is
elon musk isn't even proposing to go into twitter and ban left ban the left this is what they're
arguing they're like trump's gonna they're like elon's gonna be deplatforming people
and banning leftists literally the opposite of everything is what they're arguing. They're like, Trump's going to, they're like, Elon's going to be deplatforming people and banning leftists.
It's literally the opposite of
everything he's advocated for. Yeah.
He's not going to do that at all. He wants to bring the
people back who've been unfairly banned.
Well, that's the problem, I guess.
The left is like, when we get power,
we will destroy you. And when the right gets power,
they're like, no, no, no, we'll be fair. Let you do what you want?
Yeah, we'll let you do what you want. No, how dare you?
Well, even in the disclosures of Elon Musk's text messages,
there's one conversation he had with an anonymous Twitter employee
that's not named because of the, quote,
sensitive nature of the conversation.
The sensitive nature of this conversation was, quote,
how to navigate, how to let right-wingers back on Twitter.
Whoa.
So this is an official text message
that was happening between Elon Musk
and an employee at Twitter.
That's anonymous.
What is that?
That's pretty big.
I could send you the copy of it right now
or I could just tweet it out right now.
But the DMs and the private messages,
some of them are leaked
and people could read them online
and they really do tell a very interesting tale of what's happening behind the scenes here.
We need to get a video ready of like Trump suiting up, like putting his shoes on and
then walking and straightening his tie.
He's like, I'm back.
That's all I care about, you know, bring Trump back because there were so many journalists
when he got banned.
There were these threads where journalists were like, I would have to have my phone on alert because it was my job and so i would get an alert at three in the morning
they'd like my boss would be calling me being like trump tweeted write it up and they'd be like it's
three in the morning this is one of the reasons i think so many journalists probably hated trump
because he would tweet at like 2 a.m yeah they'd have to wake up and then be like
write the story like trump says something about North Korea.
And then everybody's like, I wish the guy was would just play ball and just do what he's told.
Instead, he pisses off all these journalists.
So they just write lies about him endlessly.
I think a lot of Twitter is a consensus between the bots, between the bands of the right wing people.
It's about finding consensus. So when
people who aren't that same thing with, you know, you have the media, you have Hollywood, you have
big tech, you have the corporate press, you have the government, the career politicians, you have
socialism everywhere, it's everywhere. And I think a lot of that is about consensus. And it's so when
somebody who's maybe
an armchair, you know, they vote, you know, so they're going to go and they're going to research
and they're going to find everybody thinks this way. Nobody thinks that way. So that way must be
bad. You know, so that's, that's my idea is that they use Twitter kind of as a machine for consensus.
I mean, it'll be interesting to see what happens with these elections coming up in November,
with Elon Musk, if he if he takes over by then.
And I'm already getting messages.
I was scrolling through Facebook today, notifications, and they were saying, well, we're going to, you know, there's going to be, I didn't read through all of it, but it seemed like they were priming you to be ready for censored content when the election comes up.
And so it's like, they're already sending us warnings.
Like there's going, there's something's coming. Yeah. Josie, you're definitely right. And I would even
go further. Absolutely. Big tech social media is used as a tool, not just for consensus,
but for manipulation. And there are bots. There's a lot of bots. There's a lot of sock puppet
accounts. There's a lot of government officials. the Israeli government even announced this 15 years ago, that they're hiring individuals to set consensus online to, of course, spread the messaging that's more favorable towards their government.
If you think the U.S. government is not doing this, if you think the Chinese government and the Russian government is not doing this,
you're absolutely kidding yourself.
And there's a lot of bots.
It's estimated, according through a lot of accounting, that a lot of the most popular
accounts have the most amount of bots, since bots are usually following those accounts.
Like Biden is expected, according to some estimates, having at least 49.3% of his entire
Twitter followers to be bots, to be fake. So when you look at the consensus, and when you look at
what people really think, and you look at the reality and when you look at what people really think and you look at the reality on twitter it's a totally different reality uh there's a quincy poll showing how the
majority of americans 50 57 of them want negotiations want to end the war in ukraine
as soon as possible but that wasn't reflected in the elon musk poll that he did asking uh around
the similar question of peace in Ukraine.
So what's really going on here?
Obviously, there's a lot of manipulation behind the scene that we don't even know about.
War is very profitable, incredibly profitable.
So we have a recession, you know, so they're not fixing that.
They're making it worse.
How could they fix it with a snap of the fingers?
War. Yep. they're not fixing that they're making it worse how could they fix it with a snap of the fingers war yep let's jump to this next story from the whitehouse.gov blueprint for an ai bill of rights
making automated systems work for the american people excellent i think it's a lot of nothing
to be honest i was i was looking at it just for a little bit and uh let's just talk about what
their what their uh proposal is that it and this was released today the same day elon um came out and said he's gonna buy that's right safe and effective systems algorithmic
discrimination protections data privacy notice and explanation human alternatives consideration
and fallback now i don't know these are kind of like nebulous terms but some of it's actually i
agree with safe and effective systems automated systems should be developed with consultation from diverse communities.
Stakeholders.
Take a look at that.
What does that word mean?
Luke?
What?
Stakeholder.
Stakeholder.
Who are affected?
You know,
people who have stakes
and they eat them
and they're holding the stake.
People who have skin in the game.
I'm going to give you
one more chance, Luke.
No, you don't know?
Go ahead.
People who, of course,
are investors.
It's the World Economic Forum.
Yeah.
It's the World Economic Forum.
Investors, controllers, centralizers.
It's their, no, it means you.
The World Economic Forum says we have to move beyond shareholders and move towards stakeholder economy,
which is who is affected by this as opposed to who owns it.
So this is basically World Economic Forum, Davos-type language.
They say domain experts identify concerns,
risk, potential impacts in the systems,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Look, I agree.
You know, Ian's brought this up.
If you don't know
what an algorithm is doing to you,
like when Facebook
was experimenting on people,
we got a problem
and they shouldn't be allowed
to do that.
The next one's actually
really interesting.
Algorithmic discrimination protections.
They say you should not
face discrimination
by algorithms and systems
should be used
and designed
in an equitable way. Oh, here we go. Equ we go equitable it's exciting but here's the interesting thing
they say you can't be discriminated on the basis of race color ethnicity sex pregnancy childbirth
medical conditions and identity intersex status religion age national origin disability veteran
status genetic information or any other classification protected by law full stop
that's a very very broad and bold thing to say what does that classification protected by law. Full stop.
That's a very, very broad and bold thing to say.
What does that mean, protected by law?
There's a bunch of different places in this country that have different parameters for the human rights law, notably Washington, D.C., which says political affiliation is
a protected class.
That's right.
If they're going to claim anything protected by law, well, then I'll assert in D.C. it
is.
Does that mean if they were to implement these policies, if you live you live in dc could you sue if you were banned for political reasons
that's the interesting thing is that a state's right thing didn't desantis do something like
that in florida where uh if you are running for office and you get banned you can sue i can't
remember exactly what it was he did something like that on a state level yeah the thing is the
defense will just be well we ban them for something else, right?
Instead of political reasons.
But it's not working because,
as we saw with Alex Berenson,
when he sued, I guess the ruling was
they have to explain what they did
because you have a contract with them.
So like, you know, I can put in a contract.
I can terminate this contract for these specific reasons.
This is what Twitter does. Twitter says, we can put in a contract. I can terminate this contract for these specific reasons. This is what Twitter does.
Twitter says, we can ban you for these reasons.
And so if they ban you and it's for a reason, they have to explain exactly what they did.
I suppose there's an argument that they say we can ban you for any reason or no reason.
But there was a new, I think it was a Fifth Circuit court ruling where the judge said, no, they can't.
These big tech platforms can't just ban you arbitrarily.
They don't have the right to do that.
So that'll be interesting to see how that gets adjudicated
as it makes its way up to the Supreme Court.
Because that's not actually a contract if they could do that.
I mean, wouldn't that be some sort of violation?
What am I thinking?
Would it be some sort of violation if they can just change their rules
and ban you as they go and change the rules?
If you get on Twitter in 2010 and then they've changed the rules changed the rules changed the rules like are you agreeing
to all those changes this was a big thing with patreon there was like there was a lawsuit and
patreon abruptly changed their rules and tried to get everyone to agree to the new rules without
because they don't know what it is and it was because it was gonna the suit required them to
go to arbitration and they had to pay the cost of arbitration so if like a million people sue they got to pay you know
100 million dollars or some ridiculous amount so they tried changing the rules and the judge was
like when these people signed up they signed up and agreed under these terms and the action you
took which violated terms happened before you changed the contract so we're going to operate
under the previous rules.
I don't know where that case ended up going.
But this is interesting because I believe big tech platforms should not have the right to just ban you for no reason.
That should be stricken as just like not applicable.
And so the example I'll give you is we need to start treating this all like being a tenant, a landlord.
Or like the big tech platforms are landlords renting you space in exchange for something.
In this case, for Twitter, it's by you being on the platform, they can sell advertisements.
So there's an exchange here.
Imagine a landlord was like, you can live in this building.
The rent is $2,500 a month.
And you're like, okay, now here's the reasons I can evict you.
If you smash the windows, if you're throwing food out the window, if you're too noisy and
you won't stop.
And also for literally any reason at any time.
Yet no court is going to uphold it.
They're going to be like, you can't do that.
There's laws.
So I view this stuff like, no, no, no, no.
Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, they don't get to say, we're going to enter into a monetization contract where you can start a business.
You can monetize yourself on this platform.
We are going to monetize you, but we can terminate the contract at any reason.
No, no, no.
I think, imagine if the world operated this way.
Like you go to a landlord in downtown of your city and you're like,
I'm going to open
a bakery. And they say, okay, so long as you're not making like swastika cupcakes, I don't care.
You're fine. And then one day for no reason, he says, you know, you, you know, you made mint
chocolate chip cupcakes and I hate it. So I'm kicking you out. I don't got to give you a reason.
How could businesses survive if landlords could just terminate a business like that with no argument with no with no lawsuit now that most businesses are moving online now that tons of people make
their living on the internet we absolutely have to today ensure protections for people as if they're
a tenant i agree with that because i went through it um right after the right after not after the election, but after the when Biden got
into office, January 21st, I ended up getting banned from Twitter and I was never told why
I was just banned, arbitrarily banned. And I was gone until the last week in April this year when
Elon said he was going to buy Twitter and I miraculously reappeared.
And but that was really tough because, you know, I had like kind of built this brand and I was,
you know, like growing and I was spreading a message and I was just gone one day and I was
no longer in the public square and I didn't do anything wrong.
And did they give you a message or?
No, just like you violated terms and you can appeal this.
So I appealed it.
And then they were like, you know, three months later, they're like, no, no, now you're
permanently suspended.
And I'm like.
That's what you get for appealing.
I know, right?
Like, yeah.
So it was just it was it was really difficult, you know, to be kicked out of the public
square.
I mean, I'm just I don't post anything that bad, I don't think.
But yeah, so I've lived through it.
I am absolutely an advocate for an AI Bill of Rights.
You know, I know why they're doing it.
I don't know about this one.
Now.
No, I don't know about this one.
I haven't read through the whole thing yet.
But this one, I mean, the timing of it with Elon saying.
Well, who gets to enforce this AI Bill of Rights?
And a lot of the language
is very broad,
you know,
so I would have to
take a closer look at it,
but there are points
that I do agree with in there,
like the arbiter banning
of why whatever,
you know,
but...
But of course,
that's not going to be in there
and you should never
trust the government.
Oh, God.
And you should never
trust the government ever
if they use broad,
generalized language because they will use it for their own personal interest.
And they have been manipulating social media for their own personal benefit already in such an extensive, bastardized way that it's sickening to most people.
I agree with this one right here, human alternatives.
It says you should be able to opt out where appropriate and have access to a person who can quickly consider and remedy problems you encounter.
That would grow jobs, too, because nobody works at Twitter exactly it's just too big yeah but my
response is a regulation to force Twitter to have a bunch of human
customer service agents yes that is and considering their profits are in the
billions they can afford to hire a lot of customer service agents but they do
companies though but but what they usually do is they they outsource it they go to places like africa they
go to places in asia and they get cheap labor markets to do a lot of the banning and censoring
and there was even a controversy with one big tech social media company hiring a specific group
of people that that hated uh people for their uh you know sexuality, and they went on a purge, banning
people, and there was no way to get any justice from it because there's no way of contacting
Google and being like, hey, why did I get banned?
Can I talk to somebody?
Can I please have some kind of way to have some accountability here?
None of that.
I'm just concerned that this only helps Twitter keep their market share in the big providers.
It could be a barrier to entry requiring additional costs to enter the market and start up a new social media platform.
I mean, it is a problem that you have companies that say we're not.
I mean, look, if you start a company that people are signing up for and then they encounter a problem that breaches the contract and you say, I'm not going to remedy that, then they sue you.
And I suppose the issue is poor people can't afford to sue.
So what companies just get away with screwing over customers?
Like imagine if this was a brick and mortar store and customers came in and said, how do we return this product?
It was defective.
You could say, we actually don't have any customer service.
You can email us.
I mean, that's just not okay. So maybe it's going to bake costs into things, but you need to be able to remedy your problems with a human being.
And I think, I don't know about Twitter because Twitter is garbage and there's too many people on
it. One of the issues is that the value of an individual is not great enough to warrant the
cost of a customer service rep. This is one of the problems with the massive user base of these platforms and also of you know governance
in the united states 770 000 people per congressional district you can't even address all
of the issues of every single person you get someone on facebook and they're i think i think
a twitter user's value is like two dollars and so how many Twitter users do you need to cover the cost per year of
one employee?
So is that employee
able to actually address all of the
concerns and issues? That's not
going to happen. I do think one of the biggest
problems with all these platforms is that they keep
catering to these whiny babies.
Now let's do another brick and mortar
analogy. Imagine you own a cupcake
shop and there's a dude sitting there talking with his buddies,
minding his own business in the corner, and he's talking about how he voted for Donald
Trump.
So some other guy on the other side gets up and says, kick him out now.
Karen.
Yeah.
And they're like, why?
Because he is saying hateful things.
Donald Trump is a racist.
And they're like, okay, sir, you have to leave because you've upset this person.
He's like, what?
What did I do? And like, well, you were saying things that upset him.'ve upset this person. He's like, what? What did I do?
And like, well, you were saying things that upset him, so get out.
How are you supposed to function as a business like that?
It should be the other way around.
If you've got a problem, you can leave.
Here's your cupcake.
Bye-bye.
There's the door.
This dude's minding his own business.
System is, I just don't see how this works.
Granted, I think the White House AI stuff is, some people are mentioning in the chat,
they're trying to save themselves because they know Elon is going to come in in and take control the narrative exactly that's why the timing i was like
as soon as i saw that why did they shot chaser yeah exactly well he also talked about opening
up the algorithm so it allows people to see what they're actually subscribed to a crazy idea as of
course we are ruled by algorithms that that not control what we see, but also censor content arbitrarily.
Not unfair rules.
As we learned recently, there's a certain rules for very famous people, and there's a certain rule for people who don't have as many followers.
People who don't have as much influence who, of course, get punished more.
This was specifically detailed with Facebook, who, of course, get to play by a different set of rules.
So that's a completely unfair system. It's not just. There's no clear rules. And I think they
want no rules. So you have to live in fear. So you have to think twice before you post anything. So
you have to worry, hey, will I lose my ability to have a voice in our conversation, in the national
dialogue, if I dare talk about this idea, this is how they rule.
They rule through fear and censorship,
which is absolutely a disgusting abuse of power.
So it's like they want there to be no rules.
No.
Well, Elon Musk specifically talked about opening up the source code
and the algorithm where people get to see what they're subscribed to see.
He also talked about rules, especially when it comes to adult content,
especially when it comes to illegal content that is already illegal in the United States
and punishable with law enforcement stepping in and punishing people for saying and doing certain things.
So obviously there are some rules here.
But when it comes to an algorithm where you see exactly what you're subscribed to see,
I think that's an amazing thing that made the internet so popular in the first place.
I wonder, aside from the fact that a lot of the people with the larger followings are protected,
I wonder if that also has to do with ads.
They're going to sell more ads because these people have,
or there's going to get more viewership to the ads
on the accounts
of the larger followings.
I think they do
a cost-benefit analysis
and they say,
if we ban X people,
how many followers will leave
for those people being banned
and then how much revenue
do we lose?
And they ultimately determine,
you know what?
The left is more cantankerous than the right.
If we ban someone on the left,
they get really, really mad
and they lose their minds
and then they threaten boycotts
and they organize boycotts.
The right doesn't.
They won't even take off work to go protest.
The left will.
So the cost benefit analysis is simple.
You ban someone on the right,
you're going to lose money,
but you'll lose more money if you don't pander to the left.
So that's what they do.
Although, surprisingly, because I'd imagine a lot of people on the left
don't have a lot of money, but I guess it skews.
It's like, on the right, you have more working people,
more middle-class people.
On the left, you have wealthier people.
So it's like, we only need to keep 100,000 wealthy Democrats happy on Twitter,
but we have to keep a million Republicans
happy to get the same level of purchasing power. So it's obvious which direction this goes.
Hopefully, Elon comes in. Some people are saying that with Elon Musk potentially taking over
Twitter in a matter of days, it will have an impact on the midterms, which brings me to this
next story. I love it from the
hill pelosi predicts democrats will keep the house after november's midterms she actually said it was
going to be a landslide she said come on yeah she said uh we will hold the house by winning more
seats saying that roe v wade is going to result in the democrats actually winning hey man i think
it's an important story to talk about because we're about a month away and hubris will be your downfall.
Considering Elon Musk making this move
has them so worried,
maybe that's actually a sign
they're not going to win.
A month out, early voting is beginning to start.
Mail-in ballots are going out.
Let's say Elon takes over.
And let's say this time next week,
Donald Trump is back on the platform.
Is that good or bad? Will that help democrats or hurt them in the midterms
what do you guys think i think elon musk taking over twitter will help the republicans
in the midterms but if donald trump comes back i think that hurts the republicans
i think if trump comes back on twitter it's going to hurt him yeah because the only thing
democrats have to campaign on is hating donald trump They tried to do it in Virginia with Terry McAuliffe, all of the ads.
And Terry McAuliffe just kept repeating, Glenn Youngkin is Trump, Glenn Youngkin is Trump.
It's like all he had. It was just, I remember someone put together a compilation video. It was
just Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump. That's all Terry McAuliffe would say. So yeah, I think
that does hurt overall, not in all places,
the Republicans.
In the way that it falls with the midterms after taking the House and taking the Senate,
it's statistically improbable that they're going to keep the House. It's just the way
history has showed it. I want to read this email that I got from Nancy Pelosi because I was added
to a mailing list.
Oh, boy.
Oh, she emailed you.
Yes, Nancy Pelosi emailed me. And she titled the email, Honestly.
I told you my September 30th deadline was the biggest of the year.
I told you we failed to meet our goal for the first time ever.
So today I'm asking you one final time.
Will you please chip in $15 before midnight to help me finally meet my goal
so that we have the resources to close out strong
and expand our historic majorities.
I thought she had so much confidence
in that this was going to be a landside victory.
They're going to gain seats.
I'll be honest.
We have two options.
Oh, boy.
One, either we let the Republicans win, capitalized.
The fundraising battle flood, capitalized,
our vulnerable Democrats with expensive attacks and barge their way back in the power.
Or, or we step up, we regain the fundraising edge and stop Republicans momentum in its tracks.
Isn't the Democratic Party funding a bunch of the Trump candidates in some states?
Yes, they are because they're doing what Hillary Clinton did that screwed up.
Hillary Clinton had called Trump the Pied Piper.
It was a Pied Piper candidate.
We're going to amplify him and we're going to take him out.
So they're using the same strategy because they don't learn.
So they're amplifying.
They're like, yeah, you know what? This works so well for Hillary. Let's do it in all the states.
So they're amplifying the Trump candidates and, you know, because they're going to be easier to
beat. I mean, look, the 538 polling average, the real clear politics polling average, both have
both predict the Republicans to gain seats, right? According to the most recent ones. And I think Republicans typically underperform on the polls.
So I think it looks pretty great.
We're going to have Carrie Lake in Arizona.
Yeah.
I love her.
She's up by like, what, two points overall in the polls.
I like to see the states getting stronger.
Let's just do this, Nancy.
Let's pull up nancy pelosi's
favorability rating from civics with 203 175 responses 57 unfavorable okay i want to i want
to ask you like joe biden wow this is this is the the all all all people polled right
if i select only by Democrats,
do you think she will have a favorable
or unfavorable rating among Democrats?
Unfavorable.
I think she's not popular.
All across all parties.
You think unfavorable, Luke?
Nobody loves me.
Unfavorable, but not in her district.
Okay.
Well, I can't search by that.
It's either favorable or not.
Unfavorable.
All right.
And she's 75% favorable.
Oh, my God. How? Why? Unfavorable. All right. And she's 75% favorable. Oh my God.
How?
Why?
They like her.
All right.
All right.
Hold on.
I think it's that bikini photo.
Oh God.
I know.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Republican Party.
That one's, that's no brainer, right?
Yeah.
It's going to be 90%.
99?
96?
Hey, look at that.
There's 3% of the Republican Party that like Pelosi.
Those are the Liz Cheney's
those are the people who saw the bikini picture
alright here's the important one though
independent voters favorable or unfavorable
unfavorable I'd say
unfavorable for sure
60%
68%
oh my god
am I having a stroke
this reminds me of the recent national poll by the, what?
It was either the Washington Post or the New York Times and whoever they partnered with
asking about DeSantis' bill with banning sexualized curriculum.
They didn't explicitly refer to his bill, but they said, do you support or oppose having
sexualized curriculum in elementary school? And it was overwhelmingly opposed overall, like 70 to 80 percent among all voters nationwide.
And then among Republicans, it was like 96 percent opposed to that type of curriculum in elementary schools.
Independents, it was like 80, 90 percent opposed.
But Democrats, it was like even.
Wow.
And it's like it's only because they know that
their party supported this curriculum in the classroom so they're just like kind of hitching
themselves to all right to whatever the party now because because the question pelosi uh brings up
is will they win i give you the next poll from civics democratic party favorable rating registered voters 431 735 responses since 2015 among democratic party members do you think
they will have the democrat they will view the democratic party favorably yeah of course they
will of course they will right and they do 80 favorable they really like pelosi though republicans
obviously don't like it with 96 unfavoravorable, but the big question is independent voters. What do you guys think?
I hope they dislike it. It's a good sign
if they dislike it. You've always got to look at the
independency. 64%
unfavorable. So this is the point.
Coming into the midterms with
the Democratic Party and Pelosi, the
leadership being despised this much, I
gotta say it doesn't look good for them. And this
idea they're going to retain it doesn't seem
to add up in the polls. However, I'm going to go back and i'm going to pull up the republican party let
me see if i can get the republican party here because the republican party is always the funniest
one to me everybody hates mitch mcconnell that's hilarious that's fair uh let's see where's a
republican party favorable rating all right so the, 59% unfavorable. Among Democrats,
kind of obvious, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Every Democrat is 95%.
Yeah.
Among independent voters,
what do you guys think?
I think it's going to be even.
You think it's going to be even?
What do you guys think?
Slightly over.
Slightly unfavorable.
Slightly more favorable.
I think it's slightly unfavorable.
61% unfavorable.
Independence despise the Republicans.
Here's the best part.
Among those who are Republicans,
how do they view the Republican
Party? They all hate it.
95% favorable. No, no, no.
73% favorable. Not as good
as the Democrats. Not as good as Democrats.
In favor of themselves. But I do find it funny
that even among the Republican Party,
they generally, like, I remember seeing
this when it was like, this is, you
know, back in 2017 in 2017 32 unfavorable
like republicans really just did not like the republican party and even now but i think the
funniest things when you go to like mitch like mitch mcconnell well you guys get the point yep
it's it's fairly obvious the big question is where independence gonna go if they well they
hate the republicans a little bit less than the Democrats? I mean, I think they go with...
It depends.
I'm mostly buried in the education stuff.
The independents are going with the Republicans.
And then if you just look at what people prefer
as far as what's important to them,
yes, I think the independents are going with the Democrats
on the abortion issue, but that's not a top issue.
The top issue is economy and the jobs.
And the independents go with the Republicans on economy and the jobs.
And look, inflation is horrible right now.
Just overall economic output's not doing really well, which doesn't help Biden.
And I think it's going to help the Republicans in the midterms.
There are two types of independents that I know from living in Massachusetts.
One is Bernie Sanders, who's an independent.
And another is the people who are,
they don't want to say that they're Democrats.
So they're independents because they don't like,
you know, the socialist aspect or whatever.
And they see how that party is going.
I guess there's three because then there are the people
who don't want to say that they're Republicans,
you know, because they don't want the stigma attached to it.
You know, so yeah, those are kind of the three main.
I mean, most voters are independents, right?
Or at least a plurality of them.
Yeah, so you see the way the independents are leaning,
then you're like, okay, I can kind of gauge it from there
by how they kind of lean within their independent.
I like the Mitch McConnell poll because among Republicans,
61% unfavorable.
Yeah, nobody likes him.
17% favorable.
It's crazy because even Nancy Pelosi has support from the Democratic Party.
I wonder what 18 to 34-year-old Republicans think.
Yeah, what happened?
What was the switch?
Election time?
Yeah, election time.
It's fine, it's fine, it's fine.
That's crazy.
Did McConnell come out against Trump or something at that time?
Is there any demographic that likes Mitch McConnell?
How about the old people?
No, not even the old people.
What about old Republicans?
The graph isn't really moving.
Old Republicans don't even like him.
Okay, what about old Republican men?
No.
No.
Wow.
I mean, least under.
Non-college graduated old no
all right nobody likes mitch mcconnell that's it i wonder what the what his favorability was when
the whole cocaine mitch drama dropped with like the with like the 18 to 24 year olds oh yeah
among the men mitch mcconnell 80 unfavorable among them 83 um like across the board everybody doesn't like
among white people 78 unfavorable black 93 hispanic latino 88 other 85 there's not a single
demographic that holds mitch mcconnell favorably and he keeps winning i think people just like
yep let's just vote for mitch that's crazy incumbents have a huge advantage yeah and
kentucky's not really going to vote for democrats and he's crazy, man. And all incumbents have a huge advantage. Yeah, and Kentucky's not really going to vote
for Democrats,
and he's always going to win
his primary.
Well, hey, at least it shows you
that the Republican Party
isn't so much a cult
as the Democrats are.
Less tribal.
Yeah, these people are like,
no, I don't like the leadership.
They suck.
And the Democrats are like,
I'll vote for Pelosi.
Yeah, well, they stick together.
They don't divert at all.
I mean, and it's like
if there's even one thing
that they draw separately on, like take abortion, for instance. they don't divert at all there. I mean, and it's like, if there's even one thing that,
that they draw separately on, like take abortion,
for instance,
you know,
like there was a point where there was even Republicans were sensitive to the
fact that there could be a 16 year old pregnant girl.
And,
you know,
like we get that that's,
that's terrible.
You know,
like she made mistakes and whatever,
like there was a point where that was a thing,
but then the Democrats are like,
Nope,
we're going to abort 40 week babies. You nope, we're going to abort 40 week babies.
You know, we're going to abort after the baby's born.
Yeah.
I mean, they just took it and ran.
And now it's a point where it's like there is no, no, no level ground at all.
Like you can't you can't be a Democrat and say, yeah, well, I kind of, you know, would
oppose abortion in the first trimester because it's like nope you're you're a far-right fascist that
actually happened on this show seamus is sitting over here pro-life catholic conservative matt
bender's over here progressive pro-abortion i'm the traditional you know pro liberal pro-choice
like after the you know after viability again and then he's arguing with me like
i'm the pro-life guy and i'm like dude i'm the pro-choice guy you're the abortion guy i'm trying
to help you out here yeah it's like you're trying to make this you know palatable again because it's
not and people don't want that and i mean it's not even that people don't want that it's
statistically something like 80 percent of people support abortion in the first trimester after into the
second trimester that number plummets to 27 percent will will support abortion in the second
trimester and third trimester is like eight percent yeah but that's what they're running on
but have you considered uh and you know obama gets this that there's too many kids
gotta blow them up yeah you gotta, there's just too many.
I think today is also the anniversary
of Obama bombing a charity organization.
Oh, the Doctors Without Borders Hospital?
Yes.
Oh, I remember when he did that.
Today's the anniversary of that.
Yeah.
Happy anniversary.
There was an article I saw that said,
why won't Obama stop killing children?
I was like, easy answer, too many of them.
Yeah.
And the Democrats- We don't have enough children.
Well, the Democrats
certainly look from the leadership
to the grassroots.
They just think there's too many kids.
All their policies literally
point to population control.
You look at every policy that they push, that they promote,
every one of them. Just come on, say it.
And then the left are like,
oh, I'm not going to have any kids because of the climate it's like no you want to extend your childhood that's why
you're not gonna have any kids you don't care about the climate but it's also responsibility
that they're running away from that's a weird thing too because i don't understand that idea
of like you know you know what i noticed there's there's a lot of bands that i like i'll just i'll
keep it vague there's a lot of art that i like. I'll just, I'll keep it vague. There's a lot of art that I like. And there are people that are like 50 years old,
still working.
And then I'm like, why is it that it's considered weird?
You know, like a band puts out some new music
and they're like in their 50s and their 60s.
And people are like, wow, they're still making music.
And it's because back in the day,
they weren't still producing.
They were doing consulting stuff.
They were doing some stuff, but they had a family and they were doing consulting stuff they were doing some stuff
but they had a family and they're raising their family and they were moving out their lives
today everybody's working and i was like why is it that these people and then i looked i'm like
none of these people have kids so like their whole lives are just product and not family and so it's
a really interesting phenomenon to see i don't know if like for these millennials uh and and just
this current generation or whatever i don't understand you know i don't think if like for these millennials and just this current generation or whatever, I don't understand.
You know, I don't think it's prolonging childhood necessarily.
I think it's maybe just programming.
It's just, you know, there was an article I saw on the Daily Mail and it was like a mother's post about how they regret having kids and what their
lives were like before kids.
There was another post where it was like, you know, mothers talk about their regret
and how awful their children are.
And I'm just like, man, they really don't want you to have kids.
They really want to prop up these narratives about how having kids is bad.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you can just control everybody else's kids through the government school system.
Too many of them.
Well, in the UK, they even had advertisement being like, do you want a baby or else's kids through the government school system. Too many of them.
Well, in the UK, they even had advertisement being like, do you want a baby or do you want to play video games?
As if video games were a good thing, which, again, a lot of people are finding themselves addicted to.
And again, I think a lot of this is multifaceted.
I think there is an element of it that is running away from personal responsibility. I think there's also an element of it that is pro-consumer, pro-multinational corporation that understands that if people don't have kids, that they don't have strong family units,
people will, of course, use that energy towards supporting them rather than themselves and
their family members.
And I think deeper down, there's also an elitist level where it's like, okay, we need to get
rid of the people in this world.
There's too many of them. We need to do population control. We need to do eugenics,
but we're doing it in many underhanded ways that, of course, is essentially at the end of the day,
reducing the number of people on this world, which already has hit a critical level where we are going to be dealing with the civilization crash very soon.
All right. Question. Are there too many people?
We need more.
We need more because, look, in the future,
we have all this national debt.
We'll have it spread over more people
so that it can pay it off in the future.
If you have more people, you could have more resources,
and that's what we really want.
How do you have more resources and more people?
So the left's thinking of we have too many people and we have to control population is the fixed pie fallacy, that there's a finite amount of resources and you divide it among this many people.
And if you have more people, then that means fewer resources for each individual person.
But that assumes that people don't create these resources themselves.
And so I think we don't have enough people.
Yeah, that's based in socialism too.
Like, you know, because they want, you know,
the more people in their fixed finite, whatever,
like you're not, you're going to get one bar of soap
that you get to choose from, you know,
they drop stuff like that.
So that's coming from kind of their communist
or their socialist, you know, perspective.
And then if you look at getting rid of the family, that's a
tenet of Marxism.
A lot of these go back to Marxism.
It's everywhere. And it's not just financial
ramifications of less people being around,
but statistically the population is
increasing, but it's expected to go
down dramatically. If you look at the Western
world, people aren't reproducing
enough. This is not only going to lead to a
financial crisis, but this is going to lead to a very serious one which elon musk has even compared to the potential
potentially the greatest risk to humanity is people not reproducing enough and if you look
at you look at also what's happening behind the scenes with testosterone levels sperm levels all
of them dramatically going down there's a big probability that that human beings
could become infertile very soon with the the rates of of just estrogen with the rates of
chemical warfare that is happening that no one really wants to talk about which is absolutely
absurd well certainly resources are not infinite and more people doesn't mean more resources it
means less like there's a finite amount of rare earth minerals that we can extract
from the planet it may be such a great number we're nowhere near reaching that cap but the
planet is finite in terms of what its mass is and what we can extract not to mention that there's a
certain amount of uh i mean we we can overfish we can we've we've made animals go extinct before
at a certain point i think that the question is wrongly framed when it's, are there too many people?
It's, are we managing the system properly?
I think the answer is no.
I think it's not being managed properly.
And the response from people like Bill Gates is, instead of trying to figure that out, just less people.
Because then you don't got to worry about it.
I'm thinking about AOC's district or Nancy Pelosi's district, 770 some odd thousand people.
How do you effectively govern that many people?
You can't.
So the issue isn't necessarily one of proper allocation of resources.
It may be.
Can you effectively manage this many people like like together?
Can they work together in such a way i i would say right now the systems we put
in place a couple hundred years ago can't account for this because they were expecting like think
like 35 000 people per per member of congress and now we have nearly a million i mean three
quarters of a million but that that just means we need to figure out a better way of managing
expectations and and you know working within the representative system well well you know there's
ways of having a sustainable system.
There's ways of individuals being responsible
for themselves, having their own farms,
producing their own food.
There's enough to go around.
Nature is an abundant, beautiful landscape
that is ready just to grow food out of the ground.
And what we're seeing from the central controllers,
from the Bill Gateses, from the Klaus Schwab's
is move into a city, go eat the bugs and live in a pot and again that's not the answer here the real answer
here is people finding themselves in nature and becoming dependent on themselves and not
responsible and and not dependent on the federal government and this is what another reason why
i don't trust any of their narratives on climate change overpopulation because they keep they they
had that video,
the line, the city where they're gonna put everybody
in a super condensed space.
And I'm like, population density is supposedly the problem,
the pollution, the waste.
But they're not,
I don't think they actually care about climate change.
I don't think they actually care about overpopulation.
They care about creating a reason to scare you
into living under their control.
Elon Musk is right right we need more people
i was watching star trek you guys see the remember the new star trek with what's his name chris pine
is that his name and there's that scene where he rides up on the motorcycle and he sees the gigantic
starship and i'm just thinking how many people do you need to build something like that it's
massive we're trying to build a building right now and it's like a 7,500 square foot building
and it's taken like a year to get done
because of supply chain crunch.
Imagine trying to build this massive starship
that has faster than light travel
and can hold thousands of people or whatever.
And I was like,
you don't just need more people,
you need more specialists.
So that means with all the people we have,
my point is Elon Musk is right.
The more people you have,
the more specialties you can have.
Some dude can be a chocolatier.
I was reading about some guy who wanted to be a chocolatier.
It's kind of a crazy thing.
It was the Bros movie.
It was the guy who wanted to be a chocolatier.
It was part of the movie in the review.
I'm like, what a job.
Go back several hundred years and you're in the middle of the wilderness with a hatchet.
You're like, I'm going to stop hunting and go make chocolate.
It's not gonna happen.
But as population grows,
everybody can assume a very specific job and specialty.
So the more people we have,
the more capabilities technologically we have.
I think Bill Gates knows this.
I think these powerful elites know this.
So their attitude is,
we don't necessarily wanna get rid of people.
We wanna get rid of certain people
and have everybody else live in the cities,
eat the bugs and do what we want them to do so we can have nice things.
I think what you hit on earlier is important too, though, that it depends on the system that we
operate in. And so if we have more personal responsibility, more of a free market competition
and trade, then the thing that I was pointing out earlier that you can get stuck in a fixed
pie fallacy if you don't have those incentives in place.
But if you do have a free market
and there is competition, there's capitalism,
you can have an incentive to produce more
even though there is more people on the planet.
You'd have more resources per person
as opposed to the opposite.
And I think it's more than,
I just want to have nice things
or I want to have it all.
I think there's a deeper religious, spiritual aspect to this that I think it's more than I just want to have nice things or I want to have it all. I think there's a deeper religious, spiritual aspect to this that I think, you know, it may be not worth talking about now, but there's a lot of circumstantial evidence highlighting how, you know, human progression has been created with, of course denies the progression of humanity, progression of human beings,
progression of innovation and technology
that of course creates life, a better life
that is more resilient, that is
more amazing, that is more incredible.
They're denying that. What if
Moloch is real and he wants
the blood of children and, you know,
hey look, you know, for all we know
Bill Gates is, you know, he's down in the
deep dungeon and there's
a there's a big door with big chains across it and he's like and there's a bunch of guys holding
the doors like hold them back i'll bring the children in brings in a bunch of kids they used
to sacrifice you know children and ancient civilizations and this is a practice that of
course probably didn't go away from my own personal opinion and perspective uh just the way i see the
way society plays out right now,
you see everything going towards one trajectory,
and that is destruction of humanity,
destruction of the human spirit,
and the will of humanity to progress, build, and grow.
You see the government standing in the way.
You see the multinational corporations standing in the way.
You see the bankers.
You see the central controllers and billionaires
standing in the way of the biggest
amazing human potential that we could unleash on the world and they're literally trying to control
our thoughts through social media which is and and limit those thoughts and limit our energy and
limit our ability to do so which is infuriating because there's so much wonders about our
existence there's so many questions there's so much science there's so much wonders about our existence. There's so many questions. There's so much science. There's so much intelligence.
But all of that is just being pooped on
by all these satanic, child-hurting,
nasty human beings that don't like the human spirit
and stand against it.
So there's a Japanese term.
It's called ikigai.
And iki means life and gai means's a Japanese term, it's called ikigai, and iki means life and
ga means worth, and essentially
it's the intersection of what
you're good at, what you love to
do, what gives you
what gives you purpose.
And we're at a point where we're
just, we're privileged,
you know, I hate using that word because they've
repurposed it, but the fact that we can
we can be chocolatiers, you know, like we can we can we can be YouTubers.
We can we can be whatever we want to be, you know, and the people that love what they do are the people that add goodness and joy to the world.
And we're blessed to be living in a place where we don't have to, you know, hack up trees and, you know, like grunt to communicate with each other.
You know, so we're in a good place.
We're in a good place for Ikigai.
And we got to kind of figure out how to hold that.
You know, on a side note, too, I was just thinking when we were talking about all the people preventing Ikigai, essentially, the banks.
There was one banker, CEO of somewhere, and he was questioned
by Congress on ESG. And he was like, absolutely not. And it was Rashida Tlaib who asked the
question. And she didn't even know what Yes, and she didn't even know what to do. She was just like,
oh, and she's like, all, you know, flabbergasted. And she was like, Oh, okay, well, I guess that
you just want climate change. I don't even know. She said something totally irrational and reactionary to him.
But yeah, I was like, okay, well, you know what?
This is good because ESG is to the economy what CRT is to schools.
This is bad.
So Tim, you had asked about the population too much or too little.
The temperature on Earth, is it too high or too low?
Neither.
We don't know what the best answer is, right?
I mean, I don't know.
Nobody knows.
Just depends on what your preference is, I guess.
The world goes through normal undulation
when it comes to hot and cold temperatures.
It goes up, it goes down.
It goes up, it goes down.
We got to jump to this next story here
from the daily mail
germaphobe howard stern leaves his apocalypse bunker for the first time in two years for a
list dinner with jennifer aniston jimmy kimmel and john ham and admits he's been afraid of catching
covid how many times that's just that's just it that's just a wow moment his immune system has
just got to be shot he hasn't seen a germ in two years.
Yeah, he's going to get real sick now.
He's going to get really, really sick.
It's not going to be COVID either.
It's going to be whatever's out there.
Exactly.
He's completely.
He's going to get everything.
It's going to be like when Mr. Burns,
you remember that Simpsons and the germs through the door?
He probably bought a whole jug of like.
Antiseptic.
Antiseptic antiseptic alcohol sanitizer
which again
that kills your
immune system too
kills your immune system
and kills the good bacteria
as well as the bad bacteria
and you need
you know
a combination of
good bacteria
to have a healthy gut
the radio host
admitted on Monday
the outing was
emotionally exhausting
and it was the first time
in two years
I ventured out of the house
who still listens
to this guy
you are listening to someone who is not well.
Dude needs deep, deep therapy.
He's saying it was emotionally exhausting for the first time in two years.
Bro isolated himself for two years.
Do not take advice from this man.
I don't know.
I don't know who is.
It's still following this guy's politics.
This guy is out of his mind.
Yeah.
But he is in a 20 million dollar home so it
couldn't have been too bad it's still house arrest i know i'm sure i'm sure he's got a pinball machine
a hot tub he's got an infinity pool and all that great stuff the that's not the point the point is
the dude is agoraphobic like this is not the kind of person that you should be listening to
consistently does anybody listen to this guy consistently?
Yeah, he's got like tens of millions of listeners on Sirius or whatever he's still on.
Well, he imprisoned himself in his own mind, which is absolutely terrifying because he was a perfect byproduct of what the corporate media wanted the average citizen to be.
And as we were talking, you know, you need good bacteria and bad bacteria. But when you lack good bacteria in your gut, this is correlated with a lot of people having very negative mental health.
So I think there's a correlation with him being overly protective, using too much hand sanitizers, using too much stuff, not going outside, not being in nature, not feeling the dirt, not getting any sun, not getting any vitamin D that correlated with his mental decline
that has led to a situation where he literally imprisons himself and doesn't go outside for two years.
Check this out.
He said, quote, I said to my wife, I don't want to go.
I'm in a panic.
I don't want to get COVID.
Anxiety, fear.
You don't even want to leave now.
Yeah.
It's agoraphobia.
It's not germophobia.
It's agoraphobia.
Maybe it was Trump derangement syndrome.
Maybe if Trump would have said, yeah, you guys should all stay in your house, he would
have freaked out and he would have been partying every night.
That's a good point.
Man, that's crazy.
Stern, however, was reportedly maskless at the dinner party, according to a diner who
had snapped the photo.
Howard was there without even a mask on.
Outside the large table, Stern told the restaurant staff it was his first night out since the
start of the pandemic.
Yo, that's like almost three years.
That's almost three years.
Was he really that scared if he's not wearing a mask
and it's his first time out?
Well, he probably realizes, you know,
like, hey, this doesn't work either.
This is pointless.
After looking at the data after being so long.
He's going somewhere to eat too.
I mean, we know the rules of restaurants, right?
Like you take the mask off and when you're sitting down,
you don't get COVID.
You know what would be really ironic is that if he gets COVID now.
And then he's like, I got it.
I went out.
I got to go back in for two more years.
I mean, he's got to be shots, boosters.
He's got to have it all.
Yes.
Which, again, a lot of data is coming out
highlighting some interesting findings
that highlight that he probably
will be getting sick,
especially if he...
Well, just...
He's going to get something.
You can't lock yourself up for two years.
Whether it's the flu,
whether it's the cold,
whatever it is, it's going to hit him, and it's going to hit him hard.
That's why, why periodically I go outside
and eat steak right off the ground
just to make sure my immune system is strong
and ready to go
that's one way of doing it
just make sure no animal poops in there
but yeah grounding
being in the sun being in nature
just being exposed to
other germs and bacteria
gives you a good immune system. This is why a lot of
people...
Some people actually have supplements
and the supplements are from dirt. Hold on there a minute.
There's actually medications from dirt that are also very
controversial that we can't talk about many times.
Hold on. No, you're supposed to eat dirt.
But let me clarify. We used
to get a lot of nutrients because we would pull the vegetables
out of the ground or off branches and they
have like, not like thick dirt, you're eating dirt,
but there's like dust and dirt still on the plant and you'd eat it.
We started cleaning all that stuff off and I was reading about how that lowered
the amount of B vitamins we were getting.
Not just that, but because of monocropping, because of simply just growing corn and soy
and allowing Monsanto to control the entire agriculture
industry along with other big corporate giants, we have destroyed nutrition from our vegetables
and fruits. A lot of the fruits, a lot of the vegetables don't contain the same amount of
macronutrients as they previously did before decades ago. And therefore, our food is slowly
and surely being altered away to absolutely be mush that is meaningless without any kind of sustenance for you as a human being.
So do we have to buy 10 tomatoes and eat them instead of five?
Well, yeah.
Do I eat double the salad now or what do I do?
Well, you've got to be careful with the glyphosate inside of there.
I went to Stonewall Jackson's Shenandoah compound because it's in um it's in
winchester i think it was like he used it for a few months while he was planning the defense of
the shenandoah during the civil war and in the kitchen they had a a musket uh from like 1820
up on the wall and they said what they would do is when they're making dinner they would have the
door open and if they saw a critter outside, they'd grab the musket and just shoot it
and then take it
and throw it in the stew.
Like fresh,
just like that.
It's kind of a crazy thought
eating squirrel,
groundhog,
rabbit,
or badger,
whatever they happen to see.
But also the crazy thought
of something so fresh
taken right from the yard.
Bang.
There you go.
Here's dinner.
Right from the yard.
The other crazy thing
was they had a winter pantry
right above the
kitchen they just took meat and hung it up they didn't refrigerate it or anything you know so
i was i was at a steakhouse and they had the the dry aging steaks just sitting out and it was like
gotta be it's like sits out for a month it's kind of crazy thought people would just throw the meat
in a room and hang it back there you go put some salt on it and kind of store it that way. I don't think they even did that.
Yeah, I think when they were transporting
and stuff, they would smoke it and then just leave it up
there, I guess. Yeah, I mean
my family still does that in Poland.
Every time I go to Poland, they're like, oh yeah,
we're smoking the meat.
There's going to be a bunch of jokes there.
So I guess he had
people just
delivering Uber Eats and stuff to his house or family or...
I don't know.
If he had Uber Eats coming in or...
Yeah, I guess they just drop it on the doorstep or something.
He has like...
What are those rooms called where it's like one door opens and then you put the food in
and then it closes?
Decontamination room?
Yeah, like it sprays it.
Then he opens it up and takes it out.
I wouldn't be surprised that that's
exactly what he has get lysol just sprays it everywhere he's wealthy enough he'd probably
want to do uh i wouldn't be surprised if he got like special order farm food that was harvested
by like his select people because the thing about fast food is like you don't know what they're
doing when they prepare it i remember that viral video where a dude was at Taco Bell.
I think it was Taco Bell.
And he stood in the lettuce or something like that.
Do you guys remember that?
Oh, yeah.
Maybe it was Burger King or something.
Yikes, yeah.
Yeah, he was like standing in it.
There's a bunch of videos where people do that where they're like screwing with the food and then they were posting it online.
You never know, man.
For all we know, you know, Howard Stern orders, what's that grocery delivery service you can
order?
I don't know, whatever.
Instacart?
Is that what it is?
He orders ice cream and he gets the one ice cream that girl licked and put back.
So you think you're safe, Howard Stern, but they're getting the germs in your food when
you order it.
I mean, did he keep his maids?
I mean, I assume he's got a $20 million mansion.
He had maids.
You guys must stay house arrest.
Did he like, yeah, he probably wasids. You guys must stay house arrest too.
Yeah, he probably was like,
we're all under house arrest now.
It wouldn't work for me.
You got to stay here.
No leaving.
Yo, what happened to people?
Like this dude used to be an edgelord
and now he's just like a terrified panic attack agoraphobe.
I mean, really just think about it though.
If everybody did what he did,
I mean, society just wouldn't function anymore.
You wouldn't have people producing anything.
You wouldn't have food.
I mean, I guess unless he started doing his own thing in his yard.
We got a bunch of critters and deer all over the place.
And I'm not going to pretend like we would be able to survive off the land or anything like that. But I'm confident that after some hardship, if everything were to collapse, we'd be all right out here.
We'd figure it out, and we would find a way.
People in cities and people like him, they would just melt.
They would be sitting.
He would just slowly become one with his chair and just get stuck to it and be like, and then within a couple weeks, he'd be gone.
He also became very angry.
He criticized very heavily Joe Rogan, Aaron Rodgers.
He even, Howard Stern specifically said that if you're unvaccinated,
you should be denied treatment out of hospitals.
Hospitals should be, quote, closed to individuals who are not vaccinated.
So this is a man who wants to see other people suffer,
who wants to see other people die,
as, of course, he's taken for granted his lifestyle
that, of course, the average poor person can't afford.
An average person can't hide in a $20 million mansion
and not be able to work or do hard labor or blue-collar work.
So for him to go out and say this on the heels of his paranoia
is just mind-boggling.
I remember you had people advocating on the news, on CNN,
doctors advocating for not allowing you to fly state to state
because that's a federal issue now unless you're vaccinated.
I was like, oh, shit.
But we're all in this together.
We're all in this together. We're all in this together.
But if you have a private jet,
not a big deal.
You can still go wherever you want.
It's time to jump
to the most important story
of the night, ladies and gentlemen.
I have a very important
announcement to make.
This is breaking news.
Huge developing story.
Scooby-Doo's Velma Dinkley
finally confirmed as lesbian
in new Trick or Treat film
as new female love interest is introduced
that's it I knew it all of your Velma
fantasies are over everybody I knew it
your weird Velma fetishes they're done
she is officially a lady lover
they have confirmed it
well there goes my chances
with a non-existent cartoon
character dang it so
I just I don't know i saw the story i thought it
was funny because mike why that just no serious why does velma does velma need to be attracted
to someone for a character to work is like is there a reason why after what has been like 50
years they said because they lean too heavily on gender and sexuality and explosions now and they
don't have good storylines anymore so so they're going to pull in a
whole different demographic of people to watch it who are like,
oh, I feel seen. It's my representation.
Representation is important.
Real quick, real quick. For those
big Scooby-Doo fans,
has sexuality been a component of the show at all?
Never. Never. Is Fred
going like, hey, baby, and stuff like that?
I mean, when they did the live-action Scooby-Doo
with, I don't even remember.
Freddie Prinze Jr.
Freddie Prinze,
yeah.
Sarah Michelle Gellar,
Matthew Lillard,
and I don't know
who played Thelma.
Yeah.
But like,
I think the larger question is,
was there any,
was there any tension
in that?
Johnny Bravo,
he did the hand-hold mamba,
I think.
So that would be the closest.
There were like gags and stuff.
But, the reason I bring this up, this question, is because Scooby-Doo is for kids.
Why is Velma...
I mean, oh, you know what?
No, Scooby had a girlfriend, didn't he?
In like one of the movies.
Did he?
But there's like not a big sexual component of Scooby-Doo to begin with.
So this is just out of place, period, for the show.
Like you don't see it like in the cartoon.
It's like almost every single episode of the show ever
is that some dude is trying to lower property value
by pretending to be a ghost or a mummy or something.
And then they're like, he was trying to scam people.
It just shows you that the monsters are adults
and the monsters are, you know, scammers.
Yeah, humans.
Monsters are people the whole time. But I guess that's the lesson. But scammers yeah monsters are people the whole time yeah but
i guess i've gotten away that's the lesson but now it's monsters are people the whole time and
film is gay yeah that's it well because you need accurate representation yeah because who's the
producers of scooby-doo is it you know harvey weinstein is harvey weinstein producing this
thing and another thing i know all of this why are they interjecting sexual preference in a kids movie?
I think everyone should be asking themselves after this.
I mean, Disney was doing the same thing, though, right?
Well, Disney also does a lot of sinister, subliminal messages
and puts wieners everywhere.
So they have a horrible track record,
especially with a lot of their younger stars.
But as Tim pulled up here, there's...
Well, I think we need to point out that
shaggy is trans it's been they've been that way for a while right i i've i've seen if my fair
share of scooby-doo i mean it's been around it's older than i am and i'm like shaggy's been dressing
like like a lady for a while like it's a common trope in the scooby-doo series and so i gotta
wonder if these doctors are saying that kids who play with dolls or want to dress like girls
are trans.
Maybe Shaggy's trying
to tell us something
or the producer
trying to tell us
something about Shaggy.
I was looking back at this
and I was like,
oh, there's cross-dressing
in every kid's movie.
Why is this?
Like in Mulan?
Because it was a joke.
Seriously.
It was always funny.
Like in The Lion King,
you have Timon
who's like,
what do you want me to do?
Dress in drag
and do the hula?
And the next scene
he's in drag
doing the hula.
Yep, yep, yep.
You know?
And it's comical
because it's like,
oh, well, that's funny.
But now it's like,
that's not funny.
Yeah, it can't be funny.
That can't be funny anymore.
Linda Cardellini
played Velma
in the live action.
See, I don't know
who that is
because I can tell you
like Freddie Prinze Jr.,
Matthew Lillard,
and Sarah Michelle Gellar
are famous enough to where I'm like,
I remember who they were.
But like, I have no idea who this lady is did she like did she do
other stuff after this because i don't know i was assumed she was a lesbian honestly velma yeah look
at her yeah we have one look at this guy we have one velma is a lesbian with impeccable taste
congratulations you won velma's yours uh velma also uh calls the police on people in that video game multiverses and it caused a
huge outrage because they were like it's racist to call the cops i guess and people were posting
videos this is a fighting game you guys hear about multiverses and you can play as like warner
brothers characters so like batman shaggy velma is a character and so was lebron and velma's special
ability was to call the police and then a police
car arrests you and then drives off the edge taking you with them and so people are posting
a karen yeah yeah exactly they were calling her a karen saying yeah she was like you're in big
trouble now and the squad car grabs the person and like people are posting videos of lebron getting
arrested and then people were even leftists were tweeting like yo is this like kind of weird that velma is arresting this black guy and then
the squad car drives off the cliff and then you die that's how the game works yeah so you won
velma is a lesbian but she's also a karen we won but i lost because my chances with velma
i'm sorry i never get to dream about well it's always kind of been a dynamic between LGBTQ and Black Lives Matter,
like especially in June, you know, when they have like their month.
And then every time the LGBT or Black Lives Matter would get something,
it would always be like they'd have to share it.
And I remember this being like a big controversy between the two different factions.
So there is always something between the two.
I don't know if they're trying to pit it against each other or what it is.
They also tried saying that Samus from Metroid was a trans woman.
Samus?
Yeah, yeah, Samus.
So you guys know the game Metroid?
Originally, it was NES, and you're a person wearing this this suit and you you know
shoot from your hand or whatever and then do flips and at the end if you get the good ending
it reveals that the character samus was a woman the whole time and like nintendo she takes the
helmet off and there's blonde hair and it was like ah reveal and so then throughout the years
you know the character has been developed and metroid's got a ton of games and sam uh samus uh in the metroid suit or whatever it's called is in smash brothers and they were
saying like this proves that samus is actually a trans woman the whole time they were trying to
change the character the problem was there's like a bunch of art and samus zero suit samus is the
character in smash brothers and it's like that's a chick it's like it's overtly a woman with you know big tits and a butt
so instead of being like
oh look at what women
can achieve
you know
it's like
no but it was a man
the whole time
who you know
is a woman
Samus is actually a male
man of the year
yeah a trans woman
yeah so
I beat you in all the sports too
this is the thing
you know like
one of the tweets here
was
what is this is this
james gunn someone said please make our live action lesbian velma dreams come true he says
i tried in 2001 or i tried in 2001 velma was explicitly gay in my initial script the studio
just kept watering it down and watering it down becoming ambiguous the version then nothing and
finally having a boyfriend in the sequel oh so actually velma's bi like canonically if in the
movie she had a
boyfriend and she likes girls she's not a lesbian so guys you you are incorrect but um someone said
velma being gay is actually massive we're at a point in time when this major character full of
decades old history and fans gets to actually be a lesbian and that's just another part of her
canon now sometimes we need to celebrate these wins i just don't understand why it's like don't
you want your own characters so we were talking about the other. I just don't understand why it's like, don't you want your own characters?
So we were talking the other night
that they can't make people famous anymore.
This is...
The ability to make celebrities
is weakening.
And like the ability
to create content
and characters has failed.
Nobody wants to make...
Make a...
Here's a character,
Armadillo guy.
Like Batman.
It's like Batman
over and over and over again.
Every movie,
Spider-Man, Batman, Spider-Man. That's all they ever they ever do make armadillo man someone's probably already done it okay how
about how what's an obscure animal ostrich dude yeah and um you know he's a guy who just like an
ostrich there you go yeah it stan lee had actually come out and said that you know like the way he
wrote his characters he wrote them specifically like he wrote people like you know, like the way he wrote his characters, he wrote them specifically, like he wrote people,
like, you know, and he was attached to people, you know?
So you get like Mary Jane, for instance, a redhead.
Let's go into redhead erasure.
You know, that's something I hear a lot about.
But, you know, like, but they just re-imagined
the characters as being different
than who they were created to be at their foundation.
Well, I'm really
upset about The Little Mermaid because
they put an actress in Ginger Face.
Yes. That's right.
It's very disrespectful to the Irish people
that we highly respect here on
this show. Of course. But also, more
importantly,
more importantly, I wish
characters in entertainment actually
had personalities, actually had interesting
storylines
instead of just like
hey this is my sexual preference
because we're seeing that
more and more and more
and it's like
okay
who are you as a real person
who are you
when it comes to
actually making decisions
they want to reduce people
to their sexuality
or their race
and it's damaging
do you guys think
this is going to
reduce profitability
of these shows
yes
I mean like Netflix, right?
They gone woke, they're going broke, right?
Oh, they're bleeding subscribers.
And I bet it's because a lot of people are jumping ship.
Yeah.
Because people don't want to either way,
even if they support the movements,
it's like, I just want,
I don't want it to be political at all.
It's not that I think we do want to a certain degree,
some politics in our content,
but subtle and um what's
the right word balanced there was a video a viral video from some show boston legal maybe it was
and it was um it might have been james spader and william shatner i could be wrong and they're
they're friends william shatner's i think it's shatner and spader i'm not i could be wrong but
i think shatner is like the the mentor to this younger guy who's a liberal and he's a Republican.
And then they make a joke about each other being Republican and liberal and then smile and look off into the sunset or whatever.
Like that's the kind of politics where we're like, oh, yeah, you know, like express your idea, challenge the idea, and then have a nuanced conversation.
We don't get that.
Now it's just like, are you a bigot?
You know, that's just it.
It's just overt, over the top one-dimensional
for what reason is velma is velma sexuality a component of the show it doesn't need to be but
because they reduce people to their sexuality now i mean look i get it you are but they've done
scooby having a girlfriend or whatever and then like shaggy had a girlfriend but it turned out
she was an alien, I guess.
Yeah.
Weird.
I can't remember what movie that was,
but there's been just so much Scooby-Doo stuff.
But like it ends with him being like,
zoing, she was like an alien the whole time.
Like so was the dog.
The dog was an alien too.
Brilliant.
So like, no, they've done weird stuff.
But my point is just like,
as we say it all the time,
shouldn't you just make a new character?
Shouldn't you just write new stories?
And then the other issue is why would i want like if if you know if you were if if you're gonna have your kids watch something why would you want them to watch this kind of stuff so i don't think that
this is any longer a child show i think and i will say i'm gonna have the controversial take
after giving it some thought i think it's fine that they have a lesbian representation in the show
because I don't know if you guys are familiar with the lesbian bar scene.
Probably not.
I don't know why I am for sure.
There's like two left in the entire country.
Lesbians don't count anymore.
If you'll recall, lesbians were last being called transphobic for not wanting to engage in certain acts.
Right.
They're TERFs because they're just lesbians.
They like other women women like biological women but
the features of biological women and I think that this is actually a positive thing because I don't
I don't think that Scooby-Doo is a children's show anymore I think it's a relic of an older
generation so this is like them reviving Hocus Pocus right yeah it's for older people it's not
really for kids and I think the lesbian representation is good. So that makes sense for millennials.
I talked about this.
I was talking about that meme with Abe Simpson where he's like, you know, I used to be with
it, but then they changed what it was.
And now what is is scary.
It'll happen to you too.
And I was like, that's not going to happen to us.
It's not going to happen to us because people aren't having kids.
That means Gen Alpha is going to be smaller.
And that means Gen Double Alpha, whatever comes next, is going to be even and that means gen double alpha whatever comes next
is going to be even smaller beta oh no listen listen listen so what's going to happen is we're
all going to be 50 or 60 or whatever and and we're all going to be working and producing still and
millennials aren't going to have kids and then you're going to get a big promoter who says we
want to do a show, a rock concert,
and we want to make the most money.
And they're going to say,
oh yeah, the generation beta artist,
he can attract about 20 million people,
but the millennial artist
is going to bring in 75.
Why?
There are more millennials.
Just it.
It's just it.
It's a market size thing.
It used to be that the new generation
was always slightly bigger than the last.
So it was always more profitable to target the next generation because it's a bigger market
share when they move in the key demo. But now you're going to have 18 to 35 year olds. There's
going to be 20 million of them and there's going to be 70 million millennials or whatever. And
they're going to be like, what's the point? The market share is microscopic. Don't pander to these
people. And they're going to have to live in the shadow of the millennial and Gen Z's.
I actually think that's positive because then they're going to have to create their own culture.
They're going to have to make their own art. They're going to have to develop their
own music styles. I think
this is where we break from corporatism.
So I'm feeling very optimistic about this. I mean,
we'll see if I'm correct. Like, we'll have to wait
for a few years. But I think you're right because
it is never going to change because now
I think Gen Z is the largest
demographic right now. I was reading something
about that yesterday and then I think after that it's going to super taper off because Gen Z is the largest demographic right now. I was reading something about that yesterday. And then I think after that, it's going to super taper off because Gen Z is the product of Gen X.
Mostly Gen X.
Yeah.
And then I don't think, I think the oldest millennial, they're not, what's the youngest Gen Z?
I would say like 12, 15.
Okay.
So then millennials could have Gen Z kids.
If like the oldest millennial is the youngest.
But it's mostly like a Gen X thing. I think my kids are Gen Z. Yeah, I think so. have Gen Z kids. If like the oldest millennial and the youngest. But it's mostly like a Gen X
thing. I think my kids are Gen Z.
Yeah, I think so. I think my kids are Gen Z.
There you go. So Gen Alpha is going to be tiny.
Yeah. We'll see. Maybe Gen Z
has like a revolt against, you know,
millennials and Gen Xers and they're like, you're lame.
We're going to have 50 kids and go to church.
That seems to be what happens. I mean, if you look
at like even the 80s, like, you
know, they were the product of the hippies
and they all went and became Republicans.
You know, like it was their way to lash out
against their hippie parents.
That's awesome.

You gotta be a citizen. Next step.
Josh Butler
says, Elon pretend not wanting
to buy to catch people red
handed. Interesting.
I think so, yeah. Yeah, but they were
trying to get him to buy, so of course they
were preparing. He only bought him more time.
People are also losing thousands of followers
everywhere on Twitter right now.
It's crazy. Yeah, I'm down like three to five thousand.
Same. Yeah.
Leif Hagen says,
everyone say, hey Siri, remind

Brilliant.
Oh, yeah.
That works for iPhones, right?
What's the Android one?
You'd say, okay, Google, remind me at 8 p.m. Monday through Friday that TimCast IRL is on?
Something like that, yeah.
Probably would be better if I said 7.45 p.m.
Yeah.
I wonder how many people's phones are going off and they're just like, ah.
Notifications went through.
That's funny.
Darren Daly says, I formally nominated Kamala Harris for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Amazing.
Just 10 minutes at the DMZ and Kamala forged a peace treaty with North Korea and formed an alliance to battle Putin.
Here.
Wonderful.
Nailed it.
Based Kamala.
Yeah.
Oh, snap.

They distribute all over All over the country So they're New England Because he said in New England or are they all over the country or are they? They distribute all over.
All over the country.
So they're New England bait because he said about New England.
Why are they on strike?
Don't know.
I don't know.
But have you ever noticed that when you go to diners, the pancakes are always the same?
It's probably because it's just Cisco.
Oh.
Yeah.
I knew somebody who worked for a bakery and they sourced their own ingredients.
And apparently Cisco went to them.
This is what i was told uh that they went to them and said we'll give you five months free supplies whatever you
need for your shop for free but to do a contract with us for x amount of years wow and that would
that would have meant like tens of thousands of dollars for free and they were like no dice
because then you're just selling every the same thing everybody else is selling yeah it's crazy

Xrunner says
Elon trolled the Twitter employees.
It's been about 160 days.
That's more than enough for a Xanax prescription to wear off.
Yikes.
What do we got?
Child of Ash says,
Elon is going to add the doge to Twitter.
When he does, he gets double the money.
Oh, nice.
No, I mean, look, you think it's a joke but elon seriously if he says we're going to implement doge as a tipping mechanism and then
his doge holdings skyrocket he's not stupid he's probably like i'm gonna double my money or to buy
twitter premium which he talked about getting rid of advertisers and making it a subscription model
for certain users for certain features that yeah
probably is going to happen through george it's going to be 2042 and everything's going to be
dogecoin you're going to be like going to the store and you'll be like uh i'll you and mcdonald's
you're like i'll get the number seven that's 73 doge and like okay you scan your phone and it
gives it and then when you scan elon musk's face pops up on your phone and he's like, thanks for buying. Winky face, yeah. Get the brain chip.
Yep.
Everyone's got the brain chip.
You're like, you're going on Facebook and it's like, to continue viewing, please deposit 50 doge.
Okay, deposit.
Shane Kina says, Trump's basically playing hard to get with Twitter.
Say he won't come back, be what everyone wants, but cannot get. But he will eventually.
Long term.
Likely.
I think so, too.
He has to come back.
Yeah.
It's, you know, he instantly gains access to 80 million new followers.
He's only got like three or four million on Truth Social.
He'll probably have a lot more than he had before.
Yeah.
Before the ban.
Now that he's been banned so long.
Plus, people are seeing how bad it was under Joe Biden.
They're going to be like, I'm going to follow this guy and see what's going on yeah an orange sea lion says elon with one heck of an
october surprise oh yeah which reminds me i'm really excited this month's going to be amazing
oh yeah before the midterms lots of surprises what if the surprise is that like
joe biden craps his pants and then they have to like switch him out
and he's making direct eye contact with the people of America.
Like Eric Stalwell.
I would love to see Eric Stalwell.
People might be saying,
but Tim, that's bad for Democrats.
No, no, no, no, no.
Even the Daily Beast is running articles right now saying you can't ignore Joe Biden's broken brain
when he called out that dead congresswoman.
Even leftist publications and liberal publications
were like, this is bad.
So Joe Biden crapping his pants on tv like this or next week gives them an opportunity to swap
out someone stronger like just bring someone and be like here you go and that person gives the last
couple of weeks of campaigning a big boost when he just recently confirmed joe biden that he's
running again in 2024 like it was pretty much biden said
that yeah a couple of days yesterday maybe um i don't remember which outlet reported it but
but he finally said yeah he's gonna do it yeah joda boy says if you think musk is truly pro-free
speech wouldn't censor his dissenters and is doing this for any reason other than to build his own ai
i'd like to talk to you about a bridge i have for sale. Really, Chota? What's the, which bridge is it?
I'm definitely interested.
What do you got?
I like bridges.
Yeah.
No, I agree, actually,
to a certain extent.
The access to Twitter
is an amazing data stream
for building an AI.
Just like the raw
insanity of humanity
just spilling out like crazy,
just like a stream
and he could take it
and then he's going to use it
to build a robot mega human it's going to be like that robot he built optimus it's going
to come out one day be like i am the culmination of all humans and then it's going to just like
start looking at pictures of cats yep that's what humans do and then he's like no stop robot you
have to do something more than this and it's's like, humans just want to look at cats.
It's true.
It's true.
Internet's for.
But that's one thing they don't consider.
If we base our AI off humans,
when the Terminators come and they're marching and they're like,
all you do is grab a cat and hold it
and it goes disarming.
You're like, cannot hurt cat.
Because people hate each other.
We're fighting all day on Twitter,
but not the cats, man.
Somebody messes with cats or dogs on the internet
and then everyone's like, no.
People love cats, man.
They actually like dogs more,
but cats are the meme.
The toxoplasmy is strong.
Cats would never work for the police.
Right, exactly.
They'd never narc you.
Daniel Nemes says,
I had 2,800 people following me on Twitter, and today all of a sudden I
have three.
Whoa.
Following 2,800 people, and now as of today I have 1,700.
So obvious.
It's obvious.
You had only bots on your Twitter account.
Oh my gosh.
I'm sorry.
Eric Redbeard says, when the World Economic Forum says stakeholder, they do not mean you.
Stakeholders to them are noteworthy decision makers not us proles themselves
oh so it's good for me so not the regular people not the hoi polloi the hoi polloi the the memos
yep tack fuji says tim been following you and luke since occupy why haven't you had adam curry on
no agenda has been invaluable since the boston bombing when i started following them and everyone
would benefit from having the podfather on didn't we didn't we reach out to him once or something i think ian was
talking to him yes or yeah i don't know yeah okay you know i don't circle back yeah jj says digital
currency age digital constitution for we the people or we're walking into digital slavery
really think about what i'm saying i I will. I will think about it.
Ray McKenna says,
A, fun, you cannot quote section 230 in super chats.
B, my normal posting account cannot super chat.
Wait, wait, wait.
You can't super chat quotes from section 230?
Interesting.
Wow.
Everybody send us super chats from section 230.
Everybody do it.
Just try it out. Yeah, I gotta try this out everyone's super did and and you know what just to be sure super chat twenty dollars
yes just just to be sure because love the system give us your money okay the kraken says tim you
are looking at it wrong youtube is the employer you are the employee employee in at a in a at will state.
They can fire you without reason.
Incorrect.
That is not true.
It's a weird analogy to make.
And I got to say the idea that because there's been a lot of people who've tried making an
argument that YouTube is an employer, that Uber is an employer.
And it's like, no, it isn't.
There's a thing called contracting.
If I'll put this way, this argument was really pushed by the left because they wanted
to strengthen union laws. The argument was in California, I think it was AB5, that if you
freelanced too much, you become an employee. So what happened? I think it was SB Nation,
a Vox company, terminated all of their freelancers. A freelancer writes an article and then sells it
to Vox Media for 50, 200 bucks, whatever
the rate is.
They then publish it.
Imagine this.
Under that law, theoretically, you could be a guy with your own house and your own stockpile
of wood and you start making birdhouses.
And you're like, I run a birdhouse business.
And then you start selling those birdhouses to a distributor. Oh, you've sold 50. Now you're an employee of that shop.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I run my own birdhouse manufacturing business. Nope. Sorry.
Under that new law, you're an employee now because you can't sell that product anymore.
That's insane. The way I worked with YouTube is we have a contractual agreement,
but I do not work for them, and that
is easily exemplified by they are not
our sole source of revenue. In fact, they're not even
the majority source of our revenue. So that's incorrect.
They can try and terminate a contractual
agreement, but that will have a negative impact on
both parties, and so there has to be terms
as for this agreement. I think
the issue is we need
to start treating these platforms like landlords.
You enter into a,
you know,
you own a pizzeria,
you want to franchise
and open up a new store.
So you go to a building
and you say,
I'm going to rent your building from you
and have my business.
But there's certain ways,
like for certain reasons,
you could,
like you only can kick us out
if we break these certain rules.
You can't just arbitrarily be like
terminating your lease,
get out.
The idea that a landlord could tell people
that we have laws for this reason.
I think we need laws for this on digital.
I have the opposite approach.
Let the government get out of this.
Stay out of it. Let the free market reign.
But most importantly,
let's take away all the money and all the
tax incentives that were unfairly given to
all the corporations that, of course, they have a hand in.
Yep. All right. None to give says McDes has come out with an adult happy meal and there are people
who uh who are upset they can't get one if a surprise isn't a beer i think about that people
your teams uh teams age unironically wear harry potter shirts people need to grow up
yeah i have like stock generic shirts.
I have a bunch of just like monocolor
t-shirts that I get in bulk
on the internet.
Grandmaster Key Lime says
so what is Tim and Luke's excuse for
not having kids? Programming
or extending childhood? Nice beanie.
Neither.
How do you know I don't have kids?
Luke's got like seven kids.
And I don't like to share stuff about my private life.
And private life is private.
That's right.
And how would you know if I did or didn't?
Yeah.
Like if I had a child.
Do you know?
Like hypothetically or legitimately,
I wouldn't be posting it on social media
for Bezos and Bill Gates to be able to track and database.
Like I don't want any of that private information out there.
I got to keep the teachers unions away from my personal life.
Well, considering all the swattings,
all that private stuff is going to remain private,
so you probably will just not know.
Absolutely.
Yeah, we have, look, man,
especially with the midterms coming up,
we've got serious security considerations.
So that being said, to answer the question, honestly, I have no
answer. I don't.
That's nobody's business either.
I certainly don't ascribe
to the views of the leftists who are like, don't have kids
because of climate change.
Personally, I strive to have seven kids,
but that's just me.
It's like a basketball team with two backups.
Oh, yeah. Okay.
With two backups.
That's what Andy wants to do.
Gat12 says,
the monetary system is basically a Ponzi scheme.
We need to have more babies or change it.
I say make babies and buy Bitcoin, hee hee.
And abolish the Fed.
That's what we're going to do.
We drove by it today.
We drove by it.
We thought about it.
Oh my gosh.
Mimic says,
on day one,
Musk should announce that all employees
will now be paid in doge
employees would push it hard to make it worth more to them twitter itself could then promote
it heavily for the same reason and then the u.s the the u.s government collapses can't pay its
debts the federal reserve gets wiped out and then we enter a global doge economy yeah yeah
i see no problem. Yeah. Yes. Chad meme.
Let's see.
What do we got?
Darren Middleton says,
the North and South Poles are migrating.
We are in a 12,000 year cyclical cycle.
A cyclical cycle, huh?
They call it climate change.
Look into it.
The world is going to be different in 2040,
but how different?
There's a funny meme about some scientist
who invented some laser or something.
And it was like, the scientist was walking down the beach with his wife when all of a sudden he
got the idea for this particular laser he his wife was talking and he told her to be quiet for a
moment while he thought and then he invented this famous like laser device now used in every home
and then right next to it is the two muscular dojas and it's a futuristic city and it says
uh society if women stopped talking for a few minutes
but we're on track uh historically to go into another ice age right so we might want to have
more and more kids seven each and uh contribute towards global warming so we don't go into a
an ice age tyler adams says tim do you have a jersey giant hen that you are willing to sell
a batch of dogs killed my chicken sunday and it's been very tough experience with the gore and all i saw i can't find a hatchery
that has any on hand either we only have four and they're only like i think 10 or 12 weeks old so
they're fairly small but we're not selling them but we have many roosters if you want an official
cocktown rooster we got so many i want to eat them but chris doesn't want to eat them so we're not
eating them i I guess.
Because, I mean,
it's kind of that simple, right?
When it comes to something like
the death penalty for a rooster,
one veto is kind of like,
okay, well, you can't do it.
You know, it's like,
I would,
I look at it like
the joy I would get from tasting
that delicious pressure-cooked rooster stew
is not as much as the anger and pain
someone would feel
by having the rooster killed
if they liked it. I saw Chris
eating Popeyes a couple days ago.
Yeah, but like, these are the roosters
that, you know, he was incubating.
So it's kind of like he created them.
I have no say to say we can kill them all.
Roberto Jr.'s safe.
He's got, you know,
we're going to build him a throne
and everything. but we got
too many roosters and i'm like let's just eat them they're they're they're literally food that's what
they do they're food and they make more of themselves you know it's great but uh roberto
man roberto's got like 50 kids he's been busy stud yeah he's he's he's he's been busy huh
scott prevett says the optimum temperature for flora and fauna to thrive is 72 degrees Fahrenheit.
The average temperature of the Earth year-round is 59 degrees.
Yeah, but what about the equator?
It's too cold.
And then, well, yeah, what about cold places like Canada?
You'd have more usable land if we had more global warming.
There's a lot of benefits that people ignore.
Cap says Velma was Hawkeye's wife
in the Marvel movies.
Oh, is that for real?
The lady who played
Hawkeye's wife was Velma.
That sounds vaguely familiar.
I literally thought
there was a Scooby-Doo crossover
that I missed.
Oh, the actress.
Yeah, that seems to make sense.
She looks vaguely familiar.
All right, well, there you go.
And okay, there you go.
Raymond G. Stanley Jr. says,
ostrich dude is a normie, puts head in the sand.
Yeah, I love it.
That's actually a really good idea.
A superhero, whenever something bad happens,
he just smashes his face into the ground and ignores it.
That's brilliant.
But he's got super strength.
So it's like,'t like when the when
the bank robbers see him and he slams head in the ground they're like okay don't let him know we're
doing this go and lie to him and tell him everything's okay and then you know as they're
looting the bank one guy's like no one's robbing the bank everything's fine actually trump robbed
the bank you should be mad at trump yeah and then he's down there going really
that's a good idea we should make ostrich dude get kent on it yeah We made it Trump. Yeah. And then he's down there going, Really? I'm really made of Trump now.
That's a good idea.
I like Ostrich Dude.
Yeah, it's good.
Get Kent on it.
Yeah.
All right.
Yeah.
Ostrich Dude.
Vexcoon Kilrog says,
Blizzard did the same in World of Warcraft.
They took Chromie, a bronze dragon,
whose mortal form is a female gnome,
and then as a new book, made her a male dragon,
choosing a female gnome form. Oh. Well new book made her a male dragon choosing a female gnome form
ah oh well okay leroy jenkins you know how dragons are right they're always
trying to change into gnome girls yeah that's what dragons do that's uh it's a it's common
dragon lore you know you guys should uh should read up on it yeah i would know that yeah i
would know that trump abyss mom says i I made a healer, a tank,
and in a few months,
my second DPS will be born.
What does that mean?
Like your first daughter is a priest,
your son is in the army,
and you got two kids that are thieves?
They're in jail.
Oh, yeah.
Do you guys know what DPS means?
Damage per second?
Mm-mm.
It's a video game thing.
Yeah.
RPGs and stuff.
Damage per second.
It's basically, you know, when you're forming a party, you have someone who heals the group.
The tank is the one who's fighting the dragon to take all the damage.
And then the DPS are the ones causing as much damage as possible to get them down.
And then I used to play Rogue in World of Warcraft.
So you deal so much damage, eventually you take aggro from the monster.
Because, like, you're hitting it too much and it turns and the tank has to then pull it back off.
Otherwise, you'll die faster.
Oh, man.
Good old days of wow.
Wow.
Classic.
Those are the good old days, man.
Blake Smith has shout out to the redheaded libertarian.
Oh, wait.
No, he says redhead librarian.
Oh, that's enough.
Well, yeah, absolutely. Como Shepard says, didn't Louis Black say the Republicans are a party of bad ideas and Democrats are a party of no ideas?
Eric Adams comment regarding immigration.
There you go.
Sebi Rose says, Macedon is lefty, but it's not the only part of the Fediverse.
Pleroma and Miski and PeerTube support a much more broad-minded selection of Fediverse instances.
You should really look further into the Fediverse.
I think Ian's working on that stuff.
It's a big project trying to create infrastructure.
And then you can't ban anybody.
So there you go.
David Toronto says,
when she was reading the Pelosi thing,
she sounded like the AI girl on the song
Masterpiece by Motionless in White.
Amazing song, by the way. Never heard of it.
Thank you. Sounds good.
Bad B says, Tim, JP had a
talk with an economist who did a study
about population. Basically, he was
told if we don't increase the population,
we are dead.
Pretty much. There'll be not
enough people to reproduce, and a lot of the older
people won't have anyone to take care of them as well.
So a lot of the medical things that people depend on won't be available to them because there's not enough people to facilitate that.
Everyone says, good name, Ian for president 2024. Ian and Luke Ticket, let's go.
Who would be the secretary of defense and secretary of state?
Tim N. Seamus would definitely run the new media empire after the old one crumbles.
Can I be the Secretary of Education and fire myself?
Yes, absolutely.
Ron DeSantis, if you're listening now, make me Education Secretary.
You won't have a chance.
All agencies will be fired under my watch.
Okay, let's see.
Actionman Professional Hater says, Velma is my goo gaga milky mommy
what does that mean this is a valid contribution i appreciate it velma is a cartoon character well
i guess there's a live action version of her yeah taking back toxic toxic Bugs Bunny did all the drag first. Well, Bugs is trans.
You know?
Yeah.
There you go.
That's right.
Ardwick says, regarding Scooby-Doo, mystery has indeed been solved for 50 years.
For 50 years, we didn't know Velma's sexual preference.
Now we do.
I think we all kind of did.
Wow.
Velma's... That would make Velma...
How old are those characters supposed to be?
I don't know.
I would think 20.
20 years.
Yeah.
So Velma's like 70-something years years old they're just like immortal yeah you know what i realized like their car
breaks down a lot and they conveniently end up in places where people are trying to lower property
value by dressing up like monsters it's like a kind of crazy thing to keep happening you know
and in fact if we were going to make this make sense I would actually argue they were in it the whole time
because it only
it doesn't make sense
that they keep
the car keeps breaking
down in the same place
it would actually make sense
that they're in on the schemes
and they're selling the schemes
and then turning
oh this is it
yeah
they convince the guy
here's what we'll do
you dress up like Frankenstein
you scare a bunch of people
property value drops
you can buy up the building
but then
little do these people know,
they show up and
then get them arrested so they get their
names in the paper.
Do they get paid to do this?
I don't know. Is that a component of Scooby-Doo?
Does anybody give them money? How do they pay to buy gas?
I have no idea. Maybe that's why they
keep breaking down all the time.
I have no gas.
Maybe Freddy is just like a trust fund kid he pays for everything that's what i i would that's the vibes i get yeah no i bet it's shaggy
yeah shaggy because he looks like a layabout well i what i was saying earlier before we went on air
about the five colleges um there's five colleges in massachusetts called the five college area
um and there's a theory that they're that the scooby-doo family is's called the five college area. And there's a theory that the Scooby-Doo family
is modeled after the five colleges. You have Amherst College, which is the preppy guy college.
You have Holyoke College. You have Mount Holyoke, which is the preppy girl college. And you
have Smith College, which is the gay college. Then you have Hampshire College, which is
the stoner college. And then you have UMass, which is the party college. So yeah, that would make sense. Scooby is the party college. Scooby is the partyoner college and then you have umass which is the party college so yeah that
would make sense scooby's the party college scooby's the party college yep ghost crusader
says the actress that played velma has been in a bunch of stuff since more recently she was hawkeye's
wife in the avengers films now that you say it yeah i didn't know who she was well there you go
hey how about that all right let's grab some more super chats what is this
waffle sensei says we have to make the new awesome content ourselves and they are leaving the doors
wide open for us charge agreed yep agreed yeah cianni reese says i am a writer and love people
watching because it helps in creating someone who seems real i have noticed in the writing groups
those like me get overlooked for the sexuality characters is that a reference to velma no no joseph cox
says ladybug man check out david lopez you want a new character with superpowers lol
we all right so let's come up with a new superpower right now what we got um how about
uh for ladybug man no way we need a superhero that's a guy who has the ability to uh throw
hair oh from his palms that's horrifying i don't like that hey look at think about spider-man
so this this guy he can you know he can fire hair and then wrap you up and throw you because
he's also very strong
for some reason.
Gross.
Porcupine man.
String cheese man.
Porcupine man.
String cheese man.
How about the hair
comes out of his armpits?
Ah, it's not good either.
He's really strong.
That's like a red and stiffy
type of character.
See, the thing is
Spider-Man should be firing
the spider webs from his butt.
Oh, yeah.
If it was accurate, yeah.
But they knew that was too much
so it's like from his wrists for whatever reason.
So we can try and make, you know,
a superhero cool.
How about a superhero who has the ability
to... Blow fire.
Well, that's normal.
It's like, you can think of something original, so
he can take his eyeball out
and throw it and then see with it.
That's probably been done too. That's a Roman myth.
A guy who has
the ability to
move holes
to different
areas. Yeah, so like he can take
the space of a door
by bending space time and put the
port of the door on the other wall
but it still leads to the same place. That's a cool one, right?
That's pretty cool. That would be like a
villain power. I like the villains. I bet that's already been done though. That's something like one, right? That's pretty cool. That would be like a villain power.
I like the villains.
I bet that's already been done, though.
That's something like Bugs Bunny would do.
He would pick the hole up and put it on the wall.
Yeah, they never missed with Bugs Bunny.
Bugs Bunny's got a lot of crazy superpowers.
Yeah, he's incredible.
