It just 59 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,119 Speaker 2: brings me back to the dark days of the pandemic 60 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 2: when I was like juggling, and I mean the brain 61 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: capacity that you have when you when you have your 62 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 2: kid at home, and yeah, you have your computer and 63 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 2: you have your apps and stuff, but it's just so exhausting, 64 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 2: the mental toll on top of already like being pregnant 65 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 2: on top of that, Like it was so hard and 66 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 2: really depressing almost because I just felt like I wasn't 67 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 2: able to give my all all week, and so I 68 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 2: came and I sat down at my desk this morning. 69 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 2: I almost got a little emotional. I'm just like, I'm 70 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 2: so happy, like if Rio's back in daycare, I could 71 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 2: just focus with one hundred percent of my brain, you know, 72 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: And I sometimes I guess it's just a little bit 73 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 2: of mourning, like I'm in I'm mourn a little bit 74 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: the time when I not that I took it for 75 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: granted because I used it when I had it, but 76 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: the time when I could just one hundred percent be 77 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 2: focused on whatever I needed to be focused on, you know, 78 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 2: and not have to pull myself in a million different 79 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: directions day after day. 80 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 3: You know, it's crazy because now but like I do, 81 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 3: because you know, I don't really have to look after anywhere. 82 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 3: I mean, Supergirl states with me one weekend of the month. 83 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 3: But honestly, she's sixteen, and a black sixteen is like 84 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 3: everybody else twenty five. You know, she grown, She's a 85 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 3: grown woman.

So I don't have to really 88 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 3: look after anyone, And so I used to think, like, oh, 89 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 3: if I had all the time and energy to look 90 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 3: after just I would just be a beast girl. 91 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 2: The only beast I do is walking. 92 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 3: Like surprisingly, it's not you know, I'm just I'm not 93 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 3: using this like time necessarily to like you know, like 94 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 3: re up on the work, you know, because certainly you 95 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 3: know I can do whatever whenever. I could travel with 96 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I don't have to. I don't 97 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 3: have to navigate around anyone else's schedule. But yeah, it's funny, 98 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 3: how you know you think, like if I had all 99 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 3: the time, this is what I would do. It's like 100 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 3: when I moved out of my parents' house for the 101 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 3: first time when I was twenty two. I was you know, 102 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 3: when I move ound, I'm clubbing every night. I'm going 103 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 3: now I'm gonna be grown girl.

So sometimes 106 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 3: you think, like, oh, if I had all the space 107 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 3: and whatever, you probably would just use it just to 108 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 3: like wusai anyway. So I mean I just say all 109 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 3: that to say, I don't know, like today, I'm talking 110 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 3: to my sister Carol.

Here's the thing that I thought was so crazy. 226 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 3: Amanda Seals mentioned this, Why the way they share this 227 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 3: video as if it was a movie coming out. 228 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 2: Right, it was like a pay per view girling match. 229 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 3: Yes, literally the way they yes black people down South, 230 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 3: it became understepacal. That's where the word pick nick came from, 231 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 3: that you would bring your food to watch a black 232 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 3: person be murdered. And so the fact that the media 233 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 3: all haild hands to say we're going to hold the 234 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 3: video and drop it like it's the hottest new release 235 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 3: is sickening and disgusting. 236 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 2: I don't want a description. 237 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 3: I don't want to know like this poor, poor young 238 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 3: man whose life was just stolen from him in the 239 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 3: most violent way. I don't want to see it. I 240 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 3: don't want to hear you know how it happened. And 241 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 3: I just am so sick of the United States of 242 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 3: how they display murdered black bodies for sport, you know, 243 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 3: And so yeah. 244 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 2: I want the right people to see it, the people 245 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,239 Speaker 2: who can hold people accountable. But I don't necessarily understand 246 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: why it has to be released publicly. I mean, I'm 247 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: wondering with the does the family get to decide? I 248 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: don't know how all that happens. But yeah, I didn't 249 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 2: watch it either. I spent some time on his and 250 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 2: it was hard. I mean I spent some time on 251 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: his his website. He has a photography website, and I 252 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 2: just felt like I knew, you know, like he I 253 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 2: just felt like I knew him or we would have 254 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 2: been friends. You know, he's such a not that that 255 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: even matters. He's a human being at the end of 256 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 2: the day. But you know his about me section on 257 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 2: his website. I was reading that, looking at his photography 258 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 2: and pictures of the sunset, like you know, in his 259 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 2: skateboarding videos. So I mean, it's so it's it's obviously tragic, 260 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 2: but I think if we learn about him and through 261 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 2: his parents' voices, I was just trying to find that 262 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 2: and protect yourselves. Like man, I was trying to watch 263 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: the news this morning, and I was like, I'll turn 264 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 2: on CBS.

Yeah, you know, looking for the remote like 268 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 2: turn it off.
