I'm down to 0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:35.440 free ball it, but I'm also doing to talk about stuff. 0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:38.960 I've called you thousands and thousands of times, and this 0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:41.479 is the first time I've gotten thirty. And that's crazy. 0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:45.280 That's that's sweet, man. I got in those thousands and 0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:47.800 thousands of times you've called me, like I have to 0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:51.760 imagine I have to imagine you called a thousand times 0:00:51.840 --> 0:00:54.960 for you had something in mind that was just such 0:00:54.960 --> 0:00:58.040 a ruminating thought on your mind you had to I. 0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:02.600 Mean, it changes like every day when I call you. 0:01:02.640 --> 0:01:04.840 Like when I first started calling you early twenty twenty, 0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:08.440 I was playing No Man Sky and I always wanted 0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:10.280 to tell you that I played as a gek, which 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:12.440 was like the race that I played as. And I 0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:14.280 didn't know if you knew that was a race on there. 0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:18.440 No I didn't, but that's I heard. The game sucks. 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:24.520 It does, it's it's a big time suck. But currently 0:01:24.560 --> 0:01:28.200 I'm living in a house of wayward children while their 0:01:28.240 --> 0:01:31.240 parents are in jail, and I thought that would be 0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:32.240 interesting to tell you. 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.720 Dude, what the hell is a wayward child? 0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:37.959 I looked it up that way. I had an answer 0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:41.240 for you when I knew you would ask that it's 0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:45.040 a kid that is hard to manage, like unruly, they 0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:50.440 don't like to listen to direction, stuff like that. But yeah, 0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:53.840 my cousin's mom is in jail currently, and since then 0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:56.040 she's been inviting all of her friends to live here, 0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:02.680 which has grown to six to ten depending on the night. 0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:06.280 They're all out of high school and just you know, 0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:10.240 drinking and partying all night. So that's fun. 0:02:12.400 --> 0:02:17.160 Now, why are what's your relation to these kids? Why 0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:18.160 are you in this house? 0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:25.160 So I moved here after a breakup, and my aunt 0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:27.040 wasn't in jail when she's when I first got here, 0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:28.520 but as soon as I got here, she got into 0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:31.800 some legal trouble and went to jail. So it's my cousins. 0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:36.280 I live with my two cousins and I'm basically quote 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:38.880 unquote the man of the house while she's in jail. 0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:43.760 But yeah, are my cousins. 0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:48.320 You should pitch this to HBO. This actually sounds pretty good. 0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:51.080 There would be a boring show because all they do 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:53.400 is hit their vapes and stare at their phones in 0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:55.520 the same room. I've walked into a room and they'll 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.240 all be eight to ten kids will be staring at 0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:00.880 their phone, not speaking to you each other while like 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:02.600 wild music blasts. 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:06.360 It's funny, right, Euphoria makes it look like everyone's like 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:08.560 talking to each other and stuff. But what you described 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:10.560 is a little bit more accurate. But you could call 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:13.919 it the wayward cousins, which would be an interesting name 0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:18.239 for something anyway. All right, so it's you. So it's 0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:22.720 you in a room with and your aunts in jail. 0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:25.680 So it's so you literally are the like only adult 0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:26.320 in the house. 0:03:27.400 --> 0:03:29.840 Yeah, I work a full time job, so I'm really home. 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:34.200 But when I am home, it's there's just a bunch 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:36.119 of kids in and out of a kitchen making hamburgers 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:39.720 or ramen noodles. I'm drinking twisted teas and asking to 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:40.920 hit each other's nicotine. 0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:43.600 And what's the deal with this? Are you like do 0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:45.560 you have custody of these kids? Are you like their 0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:48.000 primary Like, do they put you down as their emergency 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:50.360 contact when they do the field trips and shit? 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:54.640 My oldest cousins she's seventeen, so I mean technically I 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:56.880 don't I don't know how it works legally, but she 0:03:56.880 --> 0:04:00.800 she is able to be on her own. Grandparents who 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:03.120 live in the same neighborhood have legal custody because this 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:05.320 isn't the first time that my aunt's been in legal trouble, 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:11.000 so they have like emergency custody over them in the 0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:15.440 event that something happened to my aunt. So they they're 0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:18.479 they're around, you know, they buy the groceries and stuff 0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:18.760 like that. 0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:22.159 So if you get too high, they have legal The 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:25.800 grandparents have legal custody over you. Over over there, I 0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:26.240 wish that. 0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:28.360 Was an option. I get drug tested at my job 0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:31.880 so I can't smoke currently, which is a huge bummer. 0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:36.680 But all right, So the older cousin is all right, 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.080 So this two of them, one is seventeen and holds 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:43.800 the other one she's fifteen. Okay, all right, are they 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:47.400 like now? Now when you say way, that's what's gonna ask. 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.080 Now when you say way, word like, all right, they're 0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:55.400 they're aren't they're well, where where are the parents? Uh? 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:59.240 The dad he lives in the same city, but he's 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:03.080 he's got a different wife and kids of his own, 0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:05.880 and my cousins don't really want to keep too much 0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:09.160 contact with him unless they need to. And then he's 0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:10.479 the mom's in jail. 0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:14.960 So yeah, okay, so the dad abandoned the family the mom. 0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:16.240 The mom is in jail. 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:18.880 I see it the other way around. The kids kind 0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:20.920 of abandoned the dad because when when their mom went 0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:24.560 to jail, the dad wanted them to come live with him, 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:28.440 but the kids don't like his wife, so they they'd 0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:31.440 rather be in a house with me, who they see 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.200 as like the cool guardian. Because I really don't care 0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:35.480 as long as they don't wake me up in the 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:38.240 middle of the night. I don't really tell them what 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:40.159 to do, as long as the house is clean for 0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:42.560 the most part, the dishes are done, I kind of 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:46.840 stay in my room. Why they they're able to do 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:47.560 whatever they want. 0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:51.679 So they so they're estranged from their dad just because 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.320 they don't like his wife. Did the wife like do 0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:58.800 anything or she just looks weird? 0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:02.919 No, she did what honestly, any parent or me should 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:03.880 have done or should do. 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:04.400 Uh. 0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:07.000 They suggested that they that they wanted. The oldest one 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:08.800 drop out of high school and doesn't work or anything. 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.360 So they suggested that she, you know, get her ged 0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:15.400 and go get a job. And she's almost a goroaphobic, 0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:17.640 meaning like she is afraid to leave the house. She 0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:21.359 doesn't like being a car, so she's, uh, it's a 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:24.120 it's a laundry list of things that go with. 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:27.520 Okay, So I'm like, is this dad like a just 0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:29.800 a guy who abandoned his family or you or you 0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:30.760 think he's a good guy. 0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.080 He's a good guy. Now he's a good guy. My 0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:36.240 dad's friends with him, they're you know, he's kind of 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:40.320 like my uncle once removed. I guess because he he's 0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:41.760 not really around to hang out or anything like that. 0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:43.800 But he's a good guy. He's just like I said, 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:45.960 he's got his own kids, and those kids actually want 0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:48.359 to see him versus his daughters who don't want to 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:48.800 see him. 0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:52.679 All right, And what's the mom and the mom? Okay, 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:56.200 so the mom, oh, oh, oh your aunt is I 0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:57.920 got I got mom? I thought there was I thought 0:06:57.920 --> 0:06:59.719 the aunt. I thought there was an aunt and a mom, 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:03.920 and I confused, Yeah, aunt is okay, mom is the aunt? 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:06.160 Is their mom? And what what I mean? You don't 0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:08.320 have to tell me any you know, you don't actually 0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:10.600 you actually don't have to engage in this conversation. All 0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:12.360 you can just hang up, but if you want to 0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:14.720 what did what did she do? Why is she in jail? 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:19.760 Her ex wife? I don't know if they're even ex 0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:22.520 wife at this point. They think they're still legally married. 0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:28.679 She violated a restraining order that she had on her 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:32.240 by trying to contact her about their daughter that they 0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:40.760 had together, and that led to her ex wife going 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:44.080 to law enforcement and trying to get her in as 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:48.800 much trouble as possible, which worked, I guess, well for 0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:49.800 almost four months now. 0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:54.080 All right, so your your aunt is lesbian? Yes, and 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:55.400 she had it. 0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:58.120 Oh man, that's a story right there. It's not even 0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:00.000 a story. It's just a really weird scenario. 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:03.400 That's well, that's really weird because like, I don't think 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:07.480 lesbians can have accidental children, Dude, there would have to 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:13.120 be a lot of uh in an accident dialed emails 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:14.120 for that to happen. 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:18.960 My aunt got my cousin to donate his sperm to 0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:23.000 his or to her ex wife, so that because she 0:08:23.080 --> 0:08:26.480 wanted she wanted the child to have our DNA, our blood. 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:35.280 So technically the child is my cousin's daughter. It's it's 0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:38.200 really that's what I'm saying. It's it's almost incest like. 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:42.079 But you know that he donated the sperm to her wife, 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:45.480 who isn't related to us at all. But I told 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:47.280 him from the beginning not to do it because I 0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:48.920 knew something like this was gonna happen. They were going 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:50.520 to get divorced, or they were gonna split up, or 0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.040 something was gonna happen. And now he's just got this 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:56.040 uh DNA child that we we we can't even see 0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:58.360 in our family. The ex wife won't let us see her. 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:03.000 But yeah, you know the all right, that's just running 0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:03.560 around the world. 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:06.000 All right, go no further. What's your name again? 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:07.640 Daniel? 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:11.760 All right, Daniel're gonna do this very slowly, Okay, all right, 0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:13.880 I'm gonna I'm gonna here's I'm gonna try to explain it, 0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:17.600 and then you stop me when I'm wrong. Yeah, your cousin, 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:28.439 who is your aunt's ex husband? Bins? 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:34.720 Uh, my aunt, My aunt is one of four sisters. 0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:36.560 It's one of four sisters, got it. 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:40.200 Yeah, so one of her sister's children is my cousin. 0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:44.959 Okay, so your cousin from another aunt, ye is it? 0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:45.320 Guy? 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:51.760 And he jizzed in a cup and used it to 0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:56.680 impregnate your aunt's ex wife. 0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:00.360 Yeah, I mean not directly impregnator, but yeah, ages in 0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:02.000 a cup and then probably gave it to someone who 0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:03.800 uh inmated her. 0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:06.080 Okay. So so so it's a little it's so it 0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:08.680 feels a little bit ancestral, but it's kind of not 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:14.800 because it's like, yeah, it's your aunt family DNA going 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:19.520 into her ex wife's vagina. 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:23.480 Right on paper, it's it's definitely not incest, but from 0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:25.640 like you know, word of mouth, it definitely sounds a 0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:27.640 little ancestry, is Yeah. 0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:29.400 I mean when you just when you just kind of 0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:31.560 put it all together, when you when you slow it down, 0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:35.880 it makes sense. But when you say it impregnated my aunt, 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:40.040 it's yeah, it sounds a little incesty. Okay, Now why 0:10:40.080 --> 0:10:43.840 did why? Why did? Why was there a restraining order? 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:51.600 There was a a physical interaction that got because they 0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:54.520 were split up when I moved in and then the 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:56.400 ex wife came back to the house to get some 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:59.000 of her stuff and that cause, like I guess she 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:01.280 was grabbing stuff that wasn't so that caused my aunt 0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:03.920 to get physical with her. And then cut to like 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:09.320 a week later, my aunt pulled out the ex wife's 0:11:09.400 --> 0:11:11.920 roommate out of a car on the on like the 0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:17.360 road and like assaulted her, like beat her ass. And 0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:19.280 so that that's why she's in jail. But the restraining 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.959 order is because I mean, anyone can go get a 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:25.320 restraining order on anybody. You know, I could, I don't 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:26.800 know you, but I can, you know, go get a 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:29.400 restraining order on you. And you know, we would say 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:34.480 it would be hard to explain that I want to 0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:36.160 get a restraining order on a random get go that 0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:37.000 I don't actually know. 0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:42.760 But this all you know what this is all sounding 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:44.839 a fairy away word for sure? 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:45.880 Yeah? 0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:46.480 Sure? 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:52.600 So now all right, So the the the cousins, the 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:56.920 fifteen and sixteen year olds, they don't they don't like 0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:01.160 the dad because the wife is telling it, because the 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.600 dad's wife is telling them that to like get a 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:04.760 job and stuff. 0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:05.400 Get a job, yep. 0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:08.960 And do they like the mom? Are they like? Yeah, 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:11.880 Mom's badass because she fights ladies. 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:15.559 Like their mom. Uh, she's considered the cool mom. She's 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.840 considered the cool aunt of the family. She's you know, 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:21.520 smoking weed, she does mushrooms in the woods. Uh. She 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:24.320 works from home. So she's just constantly high. Like she's 0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:26.800 she's considered the cool aunt. But she's at the same time, 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:31.120 she's considered the uh uh what's the word she's she's 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.560 not present with their children. She doesn't make her kids 0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:36.160 do anything. You know, I'm not judging her parenting style, 0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:40.040 but like your kids should definitely like have some kind 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.800 of direction or and. 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:45.440 So okay, so and she went to jail and she 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:48.920 just called you in to clean up. 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:54.240 I moved here. I moved here from a different town, 0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:58.320 a different city after a breakup, and I was living 0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:00.000 with my grandparents, like I said, in the same neighbor 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:02.840 as my aunt and cousins. And then after this happened, 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:05.959 I moved in with my cousins to Linda helping hand 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:08.680 to be the adult in the air in the house. 0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:11.520 This really would be a cool show, Like there would 0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:14.120 be there'd be a cool scene where like you go 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:19.000 to meet at a diner with the with the with 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:21.760 the dad and you're like and the dad's wife is like, 0:13:21.800 --> 0:13:24.040 why won't they just like I can imagine different actors 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:27.640 playing all these people. You're like this the dad kind 0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:29.360 of I mean, I know he's dead, but your dad, 0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:33.080 the dad could be like James Gandolphine. 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:35.120 Did you say the dad is dead? 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:38.560 No? No, no, no, the dad's not No. I said he's 0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:41.240 the I said James Gandolphini is dead. But I don't know. 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.280 The dad might be dead. I don't know you and 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.400 this could all be a lie. But how old are you? 0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:52.680 I'm twenty eight, You're twenty eight? Okay? So are you? 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:55.280 Just like taking are you? 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:55.559 Are you? 0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:57.600 Is any part of you? Like fuck this? I don't 0:13:57.600 --> 0:13:59.920 want to deal with this, or you're you're really. 0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:03.520 Oh yeah, okay. They wake me up almost They wake 0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:05.360 me up almost every night between eleven o'clock and two 0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:08.200 o'clock in the morning, being loud, and I try to 0:14:08.520 --> 0:14:10.240 I don't try. I do, I don't. I don't leave 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:12.400 my room to yell at them because I don't want 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:14.000 to be seen as like a bad guy. So I'll 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:15.559 text my cousin and be like, hey, it's too late, 0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:17.800 and you turn it down, and nine times out of 0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:19.680 ten she'll do it. Instantly and like, oh, I'm so sorry. 0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:21.680 I didn't realize we'll being that loud. So it's not 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:23.560 that big of a problem. But I'm counting down in 0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:25.920 the day until i leave this this city. I got 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:26.320 a hundred. 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:28.320 Okay, this is where I was going to ask, and 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:33.320 this is not. And look, the answer could be love 0:14:34.320 --> 0:14:38.120 for these two, you're for your cousins or whatever the fuck. 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:38.920 But. 0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:42.880 What is stopping you from getting out of the air? 0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:45.560 What is what is stopping you from getting out of there? 0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:51.280 Money mostly, and then somewhere to go. So I'm saving 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:53.920 up money as much as possible. I'm in the next 0:14:53.960 --> 0:14:56.040 six months, I plan to have at least twelve grand 0:14:56.120 --> 0:15:00.280 saved up. My savings is laughable. And then in the 0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:02.720 next six months, my best friend's moving to Kansas City 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:06.120 and he offered for me to come with him, and 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:08.760 it's illegal to smoke there, and I can get a 0:15:08.840 --> 0:15:12.000 job and smoke with no problem. So that's that's the plan, 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:16.480 the plan, so I got. 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:19.440 The see. See. Another reason this would be a great 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:23.720 TV show is because our main character has this great 0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:26.840 goal that you can really root for, which is that 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:34.440 he wants to move to Kansas City and get high. 0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:34.880 I don't ask for much. I want a very simple life. 0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:39.760 I would absolutely root for you in trying to fix 0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:42.680 this family so you can move to Kansas City and 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:45.680 get high and what the only thing stopping you is 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:48.560 so let me all right, So I guess let's let's 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:52.240 say you did have twelve thousand dollars and like, I mean, 0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:54.320 what are these kids they're like it's they're not like 0:15:54.400 --> 0:15:57.240 little kids, you know, they're fucking yeah. 0:15:57.600 --> 0:15:58.600 I mean, it's twenty one. 0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:05.200 It's totally totally not your problem at all. It's the 0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:09.720 I mean, it's it's it's it's these the fucking parents. 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.960 But does any part is it, like, is any part 0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:15.680 of you? Like like, when you leave, is any party 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:18.000 You're gonna be like a ship? You know. I hope. 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:19.920 I wish I could help to those kids. 0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:23.560 Yeah, I mean, they're my family and I love them, 0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:27.280 but I I've already come to the realization that there's 0:16:27.320 --> 0:16:29.520 not a lot that I can do or that like 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:31.560 whatever I say, I don't think they would like take 0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:34.760 in and use that and you know, change their life around. 0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:40.640 So I'm I've already I'm comfortable with our relationship and 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:42.360 when I leave, like, yeah, I'll miss them and stuff 0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:45.480 like that. But they're gonna be fine, or they're gonna 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:48.800 hopefully my aunt at a jail by then. If not, 0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:51.440 then you know, my grandparents will step in and start 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:54.480 taking care of them more. I don't know, but it's 0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:57.160 like you said, it's not it's not really my problem. 0:16:57.760 --> 0:16:59.040 I'm doing what I can right now. 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:01.000 What's your mom's do. 0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:06.399 My mom lives in Virginia and she's retired military with 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:11.000 her husband who's current military. There. Uh, picture perfect family, 0:17:12.119 --> 0:17:13.000 my stepdad and her. 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:14.040 Why don't you. 0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:16.680 What are you doing? 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:21.960 Like fucking I got it right. 0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:25.000 I got a job here working at an animal shelter 0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:28.359 that pays really really well, and I love it for 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:30.919 the most part. And so the job that I have, 0:17:31.000 --> 0:17:34.080 which I probably could transfer to another animal shelter that's 0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:37.439 probably not that hard to do. But I don't have 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:40.560 to pay rent here. I don't have to. I got 0:17:40.680 --> 0:17:42.640 very small amount of bills, so I'm in a position 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.639 to where I can save up and plan, you know, 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:49.200 six months down the road. And like I said, I 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:52.159 just got out of a relation, a four year relationship, 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:56.320 and so moving here was kind of like an escape. 0:17:56.320 --> 0:17:57.840 I was living with her, so I was like I 0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:01.240 gotta I gotta leave the city. So like here, I'm 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:04.160 not being pressed by my parents. I'm more or less 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:07.800 on my own other than, like you said, the Euphoria kids. 0:18:08.119 --> 0:18:10.760 Yeah, well you also get the benefit of every once 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:12.439 in a while one of the kids will let you 0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:14.600 take a little hit of their vape, which is nice. 0:18:14.720 --> 0:18:16.920 Oh yeah, oh yeah, I mean I don't. I'll never 0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:19.720 buy cigarettes or vapes again. But that's because I don't 0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:21.600 have to. If I just want to hit someone's vape, 0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:22.199 I go out. 0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:24.159 You don't ask everyone.
