00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: which we'll be talking about, which is one of the

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 1: trends because the Tennessee Capitol Building is trending. We'll tell

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: you why. I'm mild. I am joined by Becca Ramos.

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: How are you becking? Hello? I'm good? How are you?

6
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: You know? I'm looking out the window as I berth

7
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: into the mic, and the sun is out and I

8
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: like that. But then I look on the app and

9
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: the fucking rain icon is coming back again. I think,

10
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not really hating, but oh, she's gonna

11
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: rain it too. Also, oh wait, no it went away. Man,

12
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 1: see this weather app? You never know. I'm just like

13
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: waiting for a streak. It's freezing here in New York.

14
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: I'm upset about it. I have like an outdoor chair

15
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: I want to sit in, but it has a cushion

16
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: and I just I can't sit. I can't leave that

17
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 1: shit out or else it's gonna get sulk. And I'm like,

18
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: I need like at I'm like a string of days

19
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: where I can leave something outside. I already had. I

20
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: already took an l on these other sea custis. It

21
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: was bad news, but again, that's me acclimating to the

22
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: increased rain that I have not been used to. Anyway,

23
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: Let's talk about some of the top trends first up.

24
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: I just want to circle back on the principle from

25
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: the charter school we talked about in the episode that

26
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,199
Speaker 1: came out today, who cut the one hundred thousand dollars

27
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: check to someone she believed was Elon Musk because the

28
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: guy said, I'm Elon. I will invest millions in your school,

29
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 1: your science and technology charter school, if you just give

30
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: me one hundred thousand dollars up front. That's charble investment

31
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: works scamming one on one of Like, Okay, if a

32
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: scammers asking you for money saying they're going to give

33
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: you more money, then they don't have the money. Why

34
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: would they ask you for money if they're going to

35
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: give you money. Yeah, that's what we call three good

36
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: to be true, you know, not even too good to

37
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: be true, it's three good if this come on now.

38
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: But what's fucking really interesting is that I didn't realize this.

39
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: That teacher is now claiming that she was groom and

40
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: that's what happened, And I am like, what a terrible

41
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: use of the word groom to describe your bumbling as

42
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: a school admitstrator. She was like, yeah, you know, basically

43
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: she's saying like and grooming. She like broke it down

44
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: for like the administration. She was trying to defend herself.

45
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: Dud's like, that's when someone tries to gain your trust

46
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: and then they do it for deceptive purposes or to

47
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: get you to do something you don't. Damn baby, girl,

48
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: you got way to like try and spin it off

49
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 1: into some other thing like, yeah, it's actually not I'm

50
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:26,239
Speaker 1: completely susceptible to this. It's that I was groomed by

51
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: you know what she said. She goes on to be

52
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: like it wasn't even Elon. It was a dude named

53
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 1: like Luis Alberto Fernandez or something. That's where the check

54
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: was written to that that person kept claiming that he

55
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: was Elon's right hand and that's how she got caught up.

56
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 1: And you're like, fool, you got caught up by someone

57
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: who said they fucking knew him. Yeah, like literally, this

58
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 1: is so embarrassing on so many levels, Like first of all,

59
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: second of all, charter school question mark period, like like

60
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: already an issue there. Yeah, gotta get that Elon money though,

61
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: you know, I guess whatever whatever you gotta do to

62
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,639
Speaker 1: not do actual work as a school administrator, I mean,

63
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: I guess that is an easy way. Like, man, it'd

64
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: be cool if Elon like just invested millions. That would

65
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: be real cool. Let's keep the theme of education and

66
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 1: academia going. Specifically Harvard, as we know, one of the

67
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: wealthiest schools in the world. Baby, and you know they

68
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: churn out constant people who end up leading our world

69
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: and shaping policy and from foreign policy to domestic to

70
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 1: financial fiscal it's all there. Well, Harvard University, the grad

71
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,399
Speaker 1: students there, especially the ones that are you know, doing

72
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: ta work and stuff like that, you know, laboring for

73
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: the university. They've been saying for a while they're not

74
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: paid enough. That's a general issue with most grad students.

75
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: I'd say, I think, if not all, that they are

76
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: not paid enough. And especially for the amount of money

77
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: that this school is generating, the amount of you know,

78
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: money in their coffers, there's absolutely no excuse for this. Well,

79
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: they're Harvard is adding insult to injury right now because

80
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: their hold an event. This is advice to help graduate

81
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: students sign up for government food assistance programs. Quote. The

82
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: university's Health Services office sent a flyer to grad students

83
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: on Wednesday encouraging them to come to a quote Snap

84
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:17,119
Speaker 1: Benefits sign up. This is literally like made my skin call.

85
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: Like the flyer goes on to fuel your body and

86
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: stock your pantry. Did you know that grad students may

87
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 1: qualify to receive assistants paying for food and groceries. May

88
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: may not saying you will, but you might because we

89
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: damn sure not gonna give you. No. We don't pay

90
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: you enough that you have to apply for these programs,

91
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: but we hear you you're not getting paid enough. That's

92
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: why we're like, well, if you actually broke, then you'll

93
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: go on Snap okay chat and trying to smirch the

94
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 1: good name of Harvard University is how I believe the

95
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: people speak there. It's so crazy because I was actually

96
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: just listening to the Bectocast episode that came out today

97
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: that is about the movie Buffalo, but it's about like

98
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 1: a tech collector and they go over like, you know,

99
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 1: kind of this hole where the protagonists was going to

100
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: go to Harvard, but then they were like, I's going

101
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: to put me into much debt and then they didn't

102
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: go to Harvard, And it's just it's it's just this

103
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: whole concept that it's like, we go to these higher

104
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: universities so that we can earn enough money so that

105
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: we can, you know, live this lifestyle that we are

106
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 1: told is the American dream. And then, to insult the injury,

107
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: you go to these universities, you rack yourself in a

108
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 1: so much debt. Sometimes your degrees don't pay off in

109
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 1: the jobs that you need them to. And then you're

110
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: literally in grad school at a prestigious university and you

111
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: have to be on benefits. Right, that's crazy. What's also

112
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: wild though, two, right, is you can't get snap benefits

113
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 1: if you're not a US citizen. Yeah, so what of

114
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: the international students that are there? Absolutely out dot org

115
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: slash Harvard fucked me because there there's like absolutely just

116
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: choosing to not address a situation. Yeah, the graduate student

117
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: union is like, oh, y'all gonna do it, Hey us more,

118
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: that's it. Or just change the way you structure these

119
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: salaries so we don't have to like beyond food benefits

120
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: while we edge do some of the educating at this

121
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: prestigious fucking university. Higher education is a scam. It's scam.

122
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: And I'm someone who values education so much as a

123
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 1: child of educator and my brothers an educator. Like, I

124
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: love school, but like it's fucked I like never going back.

125
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's I mean, because it started off

126
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: as something easier to get into most people could get

127
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,919
Speaker 1: in bar most you know, like nonwealthy people of color

128
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: and things like that, or other marginalized groups. But you know,

129
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 1: when you look at it like that, and it made

130
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: sense to go and like that was the entry point

131
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: to the quote middle class. But now we're like, you

132
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: want debt to enter a rapidly vanishing world class because

133
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: you either it is going to be feast or motherfucking famine. Yeah,

134
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: and you can do that with adk a debt over

135
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: your head, up to you, up to you. But yeah,

136
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: it's it's really fucked up. And just like with inflation

137
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: and all the and all this shit and how much

138
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: rent costs to add in sold to injury by being

139
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 1: like yeah, like your food, I don't know, so I

140
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: don't know what the fuck they can do, you know

141
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: what I mean? Good luck to the Harvard Student Union,

142
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, please, you know, I hope them and

143
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: anybody who is you know, giving their fucking labor to

144
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: a just a university, but sitting on a fucking pile

145
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: of money. Yeah yeah, anyway, same song, just different, just

146
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: different key and that was in the key of higher

147
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: ed and then finally for before we go to Break.

148
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: I keep seeing Jojo Siwa trending on Twitter, and every

149
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: time I click it, I'm like, well, what's going on?

150
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: Is there some controversy? The first thing I saw was

151
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: this dude at a bar, like a country line dancing bar,

152
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: just killing the dancing choreography to a jojo track. Another

153
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: one is just Jojo like singing in her lamboat. First

154
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,080

Speaker 1: like in clubs, and they were doing all this stuff

194
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,400

202
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: glad you learned your lesson. We can be chill now.

203
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: And Avery's been on her healing journey. Well now JoJo's

204
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: been like being messy on TikTok just like kind of

205
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: cloud chasing after the fame of the breakup, and it's

206
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: just been like red flagging it all over the place,

207
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: being like, oh my god, dating in La is like

208
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: people chasing you for clout, people wanting to date you

209
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: for xxx, people who don't know stuff. The TikTok form

210
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: of red flagging is when you have the text come

211
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: up on the screen with the red flags up. Just

212
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: for some of the older folks like myself, will only

213
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: recently understood this format on the TikTok Okay, so doing

214
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: the red flag videos got you. So she she was

215
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: basically making jabs at her exes, basically only dating her

216
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: for you know, the cloud type of vibe, right, and

217
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 1: now her exes are like, we've been silent long enough

218
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: and we're tired, yes, And so they are upset because

219
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: they're like, we like the discourse has died down, you know,

220
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 1: we have been out of the spotlight for a minute.

221
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 1: Now that's how we want to be, Like, we're over

222
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 1: this Jojo hate train that we got post our breakups

223
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 1: like her ex previous to Avery and her current x

224
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: avery um. And so now they're coming out being like,

225
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: fuck this shit. Jojo was the one using us for

226
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 1: cloud Like she took us to Disney because she wanted

227
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 1: to post about it, not because we were trying to

228
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: make ourselves TikTok famous, because JoJo's known for taking them

229
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: on these like extravagant gas like JoJo's things for the

230
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: ten Yes, her her girlfriends all go to Disney, like

231
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: you know, JoJo's seeing someone new when paparazzi spot are

232
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 1: at Disney, Like it's like a thing that she does

233
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 1: is that take her girlfriends to Disney. And so they're

234
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: all coming out saying like, well, JoJo's actually the reason

235
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 1: that we, like we're Internet famous, not because like we

236
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: were cloud chasing from her, but because she was the

237
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: one wanting to post content, not us. Wow, So that's

238
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: when she's in the heat. Yeah, it's just like it's

239
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 1: just funny when like because at first I remember being

240
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: like her image was always very sanitized and she had

241
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: her like up pony, you know, with the with the

242
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 1: wild neon colors, and then when she was like, look,

243
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: I'm an adult, like I'm coming now, this is kind

244
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 1: of what I'm going through, like this is me now,

245
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: and then just watch that evolution of like, yeah, you

246
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: know what to I'm like, get a little messy on

247
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: the well. And it's funny because like the lesbians of

248
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: TikTok are like, well this is common. Like you know,

249
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: you like you didn't date when you were younger because

250
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: you were to be messy at twenty is not crazy

251
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: because you are going through like dating experiences you maybe

252
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 1: would have had when you were like thirteen and fourteen.

253
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: Instead you're doing it now. So you know, at first

254
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: it was like oh, but now it's kind of like girl,

255
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: like sit down. You know you are so famous, so right,

256
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 1: you don't need all this. Yeah, it is. It is

257
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: wild when you see people come out of their you know,

258
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: out of their chill like at when you're like that,

259
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: you don't have to do it. Okay, Well, you know what,

260
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: some people something the ego is a very powerful thing.

261
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: That is something we know very well. All right, let's

262
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: take a quick break and we'll be back to talk

263
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 1: about some mother stuff after this and we're back. Instagram

264
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:31,559
Speaker 1: is trending because what is this? Something cool? Okay, so

265
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: I put this in here because it's actually a feature

266
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 1: that I'm excited about. Okay, let me know. You know,

267
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 1: social media is trash and we should spend less time

268
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: on it, talking to myself. Instagram now let's you bookmark

269
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: posts with friends and store them in a dedicated space.

270
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: So what I'm understanding what they're doing is like kind

271
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 1: of finally pulling the plug to bring Pinterest to Instagram basically, right,

272
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: like you know, when you're on Instagram, you can save

273
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: a post and then if you can hold the button down,

274
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: you can make a collection. Oh right, to like start.

275
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: I remember back in the day, it would all just

276
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: be sloppy on one one place. For a while, it

277
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: was just like a useless feature where you're just saving

278
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: shit and it's just like okay, like now this isn't

279
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: a peripheral saved button and you can't make collections. Then

280
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: they added the collections feature where you can save posts

281
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,319
Speaker 1: into a collection, like I frequently do it for like,

282
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: you know, if there's clothes I want to buy, or

283
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: like nail designs that I want to do, those are

284
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: usually my top or like hairstyles that I'm looking to do.

285
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: Those are like my three big collections. Well, now you

286
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: can add your friends to a collection, which is like

287
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: the og Pinterest board, right, like when you're on Pinterest

288
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: you can make a board. You could share the board

289
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: with your friend and be like, oh my god, this

290
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: is what I'm thinking about wearing a prom, you know,

291
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: because that's like when you were using shared Pinterest boards.

292
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: But I think as someone with a you know, overly

293
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: active Instagram Mom, sorry mom, you know, I think this

294
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: will be helpful because she sends me a lot of

295
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: dms about I don't know things to do in New York,

296
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico, whatever, And if I can just add her

297
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: to a collection, do you can just put them all

298
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: there and go look at them and my messages don't

299
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: pile up. I have the weird I just look half

300
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: this shit I've saved. It's like on accident. Yeah, like truly,

301
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, wait, what the fuck did I sum? I'm like, oh, yeah,

302
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: I remember that one, and then another one's like an

303
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: ad No. That's very much a lot of my saved, like,

304
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: only some of them are very intentional where I'm like,

305
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: oh my god. Yeah, Like I definitely needed to go

306
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: back to that, like my nails ones, because I get

307
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: my nails done enough that I can like go and

308
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: refer to it. But some of the things I forget,

309
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: Like I'm not a big shopper, like I like save things,

310
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: being like, oh my god, that would be a dream

311
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 1: to wear, and then I never think about it again

312
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: because I only buy things like clothing when I need

313
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 1: it and I'm like, oh my god, I need a

314
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: dress for that thing, right, and then I just go

315
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: to the store and I don't think about what I've saved.

316
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, look, I like a feature like

317
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: this because it's funny because all the time it's usually

318
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: just me, like in text threads, just sharing Instagram posts exactly,

319
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: and I think it's easier. Yeah, I think also, But

320
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: for my old ass friends, like we get stressed out

321
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: going on there sometimes sometimes like you'll just bring it here,

322
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: like would you see They're like, I'm not going there,

323
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 1: just posted in here, Okay, I like that recipe. Or

324
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: they'll be like, oh shit, look a look at that

325
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: glow up from that old co worker, which is always

326
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: nice to see. All right. Next, warez is trending so

327
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 1: there was a terrible fire at a detention facility micro

328
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: detention facility in Mexico a few days ago where I

329
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: believe thirty nine people died in a fire because these

330
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: people who were being detained as they were seeking asylum

331
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: or whatever or to get into the United States, a

332
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: fire broke out in one of the cells, and thirty

333
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: nine people perished in this fire in a horrific manner.

334
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: We're now hearing that authorities are actually considering homicide charges

335
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: for two federal officers, to state employees, two subcontracted security guards,

336
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: and one migrant for their alleged you know, misconduct that

337
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: led to this fire, which is horrific. I mean, like

338
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: a lot of the people who were saying like just

339
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: other people tried to help, but like it seemed like

340
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 1: some like a gate would be stuck and things like that.

341
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: Just a really really terrible, terrible story. I mean, just

342
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: the layers to it, aside from like the US putting

343
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: pressure on the like on Mexo being like, look, we're

344
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: not going to brood a lot, like y'all this has

345
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 1: got to be your problem, but don't ask us to

346
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 1: figure out our immigration laws quite yet. And let's not

347
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: even address, like what is even the forces that are

348
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 1: even making people migrate like this, um spoiler alert. A

349
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: lot of it has to do with the US, but

350
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: you know, this is kind of the situation, and it's

351
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 1: just it's just like clearly preventable to the point now

352
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: that they're saying, oh, it's a criminal act. So yeah,

353
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: just an ongoing story that just went from like awful

354
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: to even worse somehow, So we will I'm sure we'll

355
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: hear her more about what's going on there. Sadly, I'm

356
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:47,360
Speaker 1: not sure it's really doing much to drive any increased

357
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 1: debate around our immigration policy. And you know, the lack

358
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: of difference between administrations where it's kind of a consistent

359
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,239
Speaker 1: low hum. Yeah, yeah, consistent low hum of you know,

360
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: just in humane treatment. And then finally, the Tennessee Capital,

361
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 1: the reason the trendessy capital, the reason for the title

362
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: is trending because there are thousands of people protesting there

363
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: at the capitol building. The Republicans have a supermajority in

364
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: the state state government, and you know, in the last

365
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 1: few days, a lot of journalists, activists have been pulling

366
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: up on these representatives, these politicians asking what are you

367
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: going to do? About gun control and actually addressing the

368
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 1: issue about safety, especially in schools, but overall all people

369
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: that are affected by gun violence. What is your plan?

370
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 1: These people they acted like they were like, oh, I'm sorry,

371
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 1: I'm on mute right now, I can't hear you miss

372
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: me with that, or like running into elevators really shameful shit.

373
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: So now there's rightfully been an outpouring of anger over

374
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: the lack of any kind of activity from their legislators

375
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: to do something, and it's yeah, the people are showing

376
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: up in mass Marjorie Taylor Green though and some other

377
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: despicable folks are trying to say this is all part

378
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: of a trans day of vengeance and that it's trans

379
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: people that are the ones that are contributing to the

380
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 1: ruckus when anyone who just did a cursory look at

381
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: like the footage and the people that are the capitol.

382
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 1: It is everyone. It's the people of Tennessee, kids, parents,

383
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: all different ethnic groups, you know, gender identities. Way, why

384
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: were they saying that they think trans people were leading

385
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: the violence at the capitol because it's all part of

386
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: this Like conservative they are, they were like rubbing their

387
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 1: myths that the shooter was a trans person and that

388
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: the yeah in Tennessee and they want to they want

389
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: to then you know, basically tie that to the dehumanization

390
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 1: the villainization of trans people and make it seem like

391
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: and they're then these people can be murderers and they

392
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: abod you know, it's like, yeah, I know, but look

393
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: at the fucking stats because the amount of trans people

394
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: are very underrepresented in the kinds of people that are

395
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,959
Speaker 1: engaging in this kind of activity. It's pretty bad too,

396
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 1: because it's like like it's that you know, one drop

397
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: rule almost right. It's like, okay, so one transperson committed

398
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: a heineous crime, but we're not going to talk about

399
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 1: how every school shooting is a white man, like yeah,

400
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: or most yeah, like ninety of whatever, some nine percent

401
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: of them are white men. And also much of the

402
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: crime against most other communities are white men. You're treating

403
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: the Republicans a good faith actors in the system, you know,

404
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: and so like, I know, I get it, but that's

405
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 1: just sort of this is what their agenda is because

406
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 1: they're also like, let's be real, you know, especially like

407
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: evangelical Christians who are a huge part of the conservative movement,

408
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: Like that helps it's an agenda for them, while also,

409
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: you know, the game right now is to try and

410
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,360
Speaker 1: expand their numbers or preserve their shrinking group, and it's

411
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: by any means necessary and right now, it's just they

412
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: want to just be as horrible to human beings as possible,

413
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: and in this case, even people that they know personally,

414
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 1: like we talked about the governor of Tennessee and his

415
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: wife personally knew some of the victims, and yet crickets

416
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: when the issue of gun control is brought up. So

417
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,159
Speaker 1: you know, that's what happens when when money overruns everything,

418
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: you just get a bunch of people who are just

419
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: going to pair it lobbyist talking points. But until then,

420
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 1: it's good to see the people come out because that

421
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: is one way to actually, you know, show the people

422
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 1: that think that everything is very comfortable for them that

423
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,400
Speaker 1: in fact, people are aware of their lack of action.

424
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 1: So yeah, ongoing as we grapple with our terrible, terrible

425
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 1: gun culture in this country. All right, well that's going

426
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: to do it for us today, Becca, Thank you for

427
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,239
Speaker 1: joining me. Make sure you tune in tomorrow because we've

428
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: got a whole new episode. It's going to be a

429
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,919
Speaker 1: pretty good one, talking about you know some fascist bangers

430
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 1: that are climbing the chart right now, so check you know,

431
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: check in for that. Until next time. Behind yourself, be

432
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: kind to each other, you know, make sure you stay safe,

433
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: gets that vaccine if you haven't. Also, you know, don't

434
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: do anything about white supremacy or any kind of homophobia, transphobia,

435
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: nothing like that, because life's hard enough, and the only

436
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,159
Speaker 1: way it gets better is if like everybody's on the

437
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,120
Speaker 1: same page saying, hey, everybody deserves, you know, to live

438
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: a good life. Okay, anyway, we'll see you then, take care,

439
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:20,240
