I 174 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: was just putting on Taylor Swift in the background until 175 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: you got your lift. 176 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 2: But anyway, is this how like I trapped you by 177 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 2: putting on the other the star wars again? 178 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, but we now have to finish this. 179 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,959 Speaker 1: I feel like mine is worse because we start at 180 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: three am and the Taylor Swift airs to our movies 181 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: three hours and thirty minutes. 182 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 2: So. 183 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: I'm really tired. But yes, it is similar. It's accidental 184 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 1: on my part. It is very accidental. And when I've 185 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: had a couple we went to some Christmas bars and 186 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: I'd had a couple of drinks and drunk, Annie is 187 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: so happy to continue the night. 188 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 2: Yeah you really are, but a lot of awesome conversation people. 189 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, anyway, drink responsible kids. I do feel 190 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: that way, and in part because Thanksgiving came so late 191 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: this year and then we went to New York and 192 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 1: now Christmas feels like it's just coming so quickly. I 193 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: also am experiencing I we'll be honest with you, I'm 194 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: really avoiding a lot of news stuff. I get it 195 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 1: through text because I feel like I can handle text 196 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: a lot better than video or audio. But it feels 197 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: like that is like barreling down on us as well. 198 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: So every day feels like, oh, yeah, this is one 199 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: less day I have before this. So yeah, it does 200 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: feel and like you're right, like so much of what 201 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: we deal with now, it makes every day feel surreal 202 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: and like I'm not sure what's quite real or what 203 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:41,839 Speaker 1: isn't And it's just it feels I know it sounds 204 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: kind of silly, but to me, it feels like some 205 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: kind of crazy dream I've been having since twenty twenty. Right, 206 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: it's just kept going and going and going. 207 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 3: No, yeah, that's feels right. 208 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 2: I think as we're watching like Germany's government collapse, what 209 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 2: does that mean? 210 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 3: South Korea impeach their president? What does that mean? 211 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 2: And I like I've already mentioned once in our episode 212 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 2: with Joey recently that I want to come back and 213 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 2: look at feminism today around the world because things are changing, 214 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 2: whether good or bad, and things have whether it's changing 215 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 2: because it's backtracking, which I feel like, is what's in 216 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: the US, or is progressing in a different way, Like 217 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 2: Mexico is doing some amazing things. 218 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 3: Go ahead, Mexico, look at you. 219 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: But Canada is backtracking. I just found out through Etsy 220 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 2: that they're having a huge postal strike. I did not 221 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 2: know this. I was like, what, And I'm being told 222 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 2: by several centers, ay, just FYI are you good, because 223 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 2: we don't know. We could be two weeks from now, 224 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 2: or it could be three months from now, or in 225 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 2: like just talking, I was like, really, so the Canadians 226 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 2: who are boasting about oh yeah, America is in a home like, uh, 227 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 2: y'all are not much better, so and I hate it 228 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: for you. I don't want which you know, I don't 229 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 2: wish like that on anyone, but everybody's going through something 230 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 2: and I'm not really sure what to make of this. 231 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 2: It does fill apocalyptic, which I want to come back 232 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 2: and talk about women in the apocalypse a little bit. 233 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 3: But like, there are so. 234 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: Many conversations and so many question marks and it feels overwhelming. 235 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 2: But again, I'm like, I know many a times where 236 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: I've heard my parents say, oh, it's the end of 237 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 2: the world. These things have happened, and this is a sign. 238 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 2: This is a sign, And of course that's very religious based, 239 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 2: like Christian Western Christian based revelation base and if y'all know, 240 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 2: y'all know. So there's a lot of question marks that 241 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 2: I feel like is happening. This is my end of 242 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 2: Like I will title this in the via chaos rambling 243 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 2: because it just feels that way, you know what I mean? 244 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: It does it does. And I had this conversation with 245 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 1: same friend who I accidentally trapped into some kind of 246 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift We're early Morning watch because she was saying 247 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: that too of you know every I bet every generation 248 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 1: always has felt that, And I think the difference is 249 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: going back to TikTok. We're exposed to it all the time. 250 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: That's not to say like during the time of like 251 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: the plague, when you had no idea why that was happening, 252 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: you had no information that that wasn't scary. It's just different. 253 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: It feels like we're exposed to so many things and 254 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: we can't tell if they're real, and it's all happening 255 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: so quickly that so it gets buried before you can 256 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: even figure out if it was real, and then there's 257 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: something else to take its place. It does feel very 258 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: chaotic and unstable right now. 259 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, And of course again I'm also comparing, as you 260 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 2: were talking about our future and pending doom, compared twenty 261 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 2: sixteen to now, Like I'm trying to see, did this 262 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: look feel like this? Did it look like that's and 263 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 2: it didn't. It feels worse like we I think it 264 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: was unexpected and we really clung to the belief that 265 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 2: it's not as bad as we think and knowing and 266 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 2: now we've experienced the bad and we're like, oh no, it's. 267 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 3: Going to get worse. 268 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: But I can like trying to cling to the hope 269 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 2: and the idea that when we are in these moments, 270 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 2: that's when we see the biggest revolutions ever. Unfortunately that 271 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 2: means it costs a lot, whether that's lives, whether this livelihood, 272 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 2: whether it's our health, so many things. So there's definitely 273 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 2: conversations and things that are popping in my head. It 274 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 2: feels an ending. Also, like again with this end of 275 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 2: the year holiday ramblings, I know that I'm about to 276 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 2: face my family again now Thanksgiving. I didn't have to yet, 277 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: so I haven't seen them yet and I haven't talked 278 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: to them yet. I know there's gonna be a religious 279 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 2: point of view and a conversation. I really hope that 280 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 2: we don't have to deal with any slight or like 281 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, like aggressiveness of passive aggressiveness 282 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 2: either way. But I'm also anticipating that and like trying 283 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 2: to figure out how to handle that. Of course, my 284 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 2: anti anxiety medication and I'm very grateful for that and 285 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 2: I will be using them, don't you worry about me. 286 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 2: But it's it feels wild and it feels unfamiliar at 287 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 2: the same time familiar. 288 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, it does. If it feels. I don't know about you, 289 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: but I assume most people can relate to the fact 290 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: that I feel like in twenty sixteen, I was a 291 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: very different person. Dad was younger, and we hadn't had 292 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: the pandemic yet, and I did go through like it 293 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: was bad, don't get me wrong, but it's weird to 294 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: be back and like that was eight years ago, right, 295 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: and it feels like, well, here it is, but now 296 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: I already know how terribly that went, and here we are. 297 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 2: We are. 298 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, it just feels very repetitive, right, yeah, right. 299 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 2: And with that, we're going to power through whatever that 300 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 2: might mean, whether it means we are going to have 301 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 2: a crisis every month and we're going to have to 302 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 2: learn to deal with that, whether it's personal or whether 303 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 2: it's in a large scale. Hope that we can keep 304 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 2: being voices in this conversation. I'm hoping that we can 305 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 2: have a conversation. That's the biggest point, and that's what 306 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 2: we need from you listeners. This is our request, I 307 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 2: guess this is my request, is that you do make 308 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 2: this a conversation. Let us know what's happening with you, 309 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 2: let us know are you dealing with these things and 310 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 2: how are you dealing with these things? And let us 311 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 2: know what you hope for, and we've already sent us 312 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 2: out before, but what you hope for for our podcast, 313 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 2: because we will keep trucking as long as they we 314 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 2: an't allowed to. I guess whether it's by our own 315 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 2: company or by this country, or by me not being 316 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 2: deported or you know, any not being arrested for being queer, 317 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 2: any of those things, which is an unfortunate nightmare that 318 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 2: could become reality. And that might sound dramatic, but these 319 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 2: are things that go through my head which keep me 320 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 2: up at nights sometimes. But with that that we can 321 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 2: continue to speak out about it and have a conversation 322 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 2: about it.
