What's going on? 42 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 4: Oh? 43 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: You know, just try to get out. Basically, I'm a 44 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: janitor right now. Actually I'm at work, but I'm by myself. 45 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 3: It's kind of cushy job. And then I go to 46 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 3: school and I'm just trying to work my way through 47 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 3: the system. 48 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: You know, what do you go to school for. 49 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 3: I'm in criminal justice right now, but I'm not much 50 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 3: of an enforcer type. I'm not good with authority and whatnot. 51 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 3: So I think I'd like to go into human services 52 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 3: or something, help help someone. 53 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: What kind of human services? 54 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 3: So, since I'm at that age where a lot of 55 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 3: women are either getting pregnant or asking me why I'm not, 56 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 3: I kind of realized I really don't want kids. I mean, 57 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 3: maybe that had something to do with my mom not 58 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 3: knowing that she had me and doing messing the room 59 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 3: or something. But I think I'd like to go into 60 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 3: CPS or something. But also I'm not much for breaking 61 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 3: up families either or breaking up homes, but I do 62 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 3: want to help children in some way. I just don't 63 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 3: want any of my own. So I figured it might 64 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 3: as well still that hole somewhere, you know. 65 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 6: M what's uh, what's the path to that look like? 66 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 6: Do you have to go to a school for a 67 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 6: long time? 68 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 7: No? 69 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 3: I think it's really just so Iowa. It's a lot 70 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 3: of worker We're known to be like worker bees. Basically, 71 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 3: let's just kind of work your way up the ladder 72 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 3: of the government centence to government job technically and all 73 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 3: that good stuff. 74 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: You got friends over in. 75 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 3: Iowa, Oh sorta. I mean, yeah, I got a couple 76 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 3: of friends. I got a couple of beef and friends. 77 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 3: But it's a it's a small pool out here, you know. 78 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 3: De Morn is the our capital, right of the state, 79 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 3: and it's one of the smallest capitals in this country, 80 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 3: like population wise, and when you if you ever came 81 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: here or if you have, I don't know if you have, 82 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 3: but it's pretty small, like square miles or whatever. However 83 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 3: you measure a city. 84 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,799 Speaker 6: Are you still like like when you were when you 85 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 6: you grew up there? I assume yeah, yeah, Well, and 86 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 6: are you still friends with the people that you knew 87 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 6: growing up like middle school, high school? 88 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 3: No? No, no, no no. So I grew up in 89 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 3: a small town, which it's nuts, okay. I grew up 90 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 3: in a town that's like fifteen thousand population, which isn't 91 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 3: super small, but small enough. And uh, it's a lot 92 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 3: of people that live there are townies, like they just 93 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 3: stay there forever and never leave. They can't get out 94 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 3: of it. Their last name means so much to them, 95 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 3: and you know, blah blah blah. They just pump money 96 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 3: back into the city and whatnot. And I've determined for 97 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 3: myself the second I started schooler, I would not become 98 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 3: a towny. I am not going to be one of 99 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 3: those people. And so far, I just moved like forty 100 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 3: five minutes away. I'm still technically a towny, just in 101 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 3: a different town. 102 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 2: Now. 103 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 3: It's new to me, so experience is a little different, 104 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 3: I guess. 105 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 2: And do you do you want to leave Iowa? At 106 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 2: some point? Where would you go? 107 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:38,679 Speaker 3: Honestly, I this is this is so stupid. But I'm since, 108 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 3: you know, Iowa has all the seasons, and we have 109 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,239 Speaker 3: a little bit of everything. We got a little bit minus, 110 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 3: like hurricanes and all that. But I'd like to go 111 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 3: to Minnesota or something. I think I could handle the 112 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 3: extreme colds and whatnot. And the crowd seems to be 113 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 3: a lot cooler. They're more people, a lot more to do, 114 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 3: a lot more opportunity, and not too far from my 115 00:05:58,480 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 3: family here. 116 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 2: You know, that's nice. 117 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 6: I doubt you will experience significant culture shock moving from 118 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 6: Iowa to Minnesota. 119 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 3: No. No, I went to California. I went to see 120 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 3: Diego and I lived in my car with my shitty 121 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,239 Speaker 3: ex for a while, and that was a culture shock 122 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 3: for sure. Well, I was like, I was like, basically 123 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 3: I was home. Was there right, and he is all 124 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 3: tatted up and scary white guy and stuff, And everybody 125 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 3: just knew we were from out of town, you know 126 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 3: what I mean, the state, let's put it that, or 127 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 3: the region. Even they just could tell I swear. But 128 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: some people were super nice, but most people were just 129 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 3: they were not about it to you. 130 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 2: What do you mean? What do you mean by that? 131 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 6: They were like, who did you what kinds of interactions 132 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 6: did you have while you were down there? 133 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 3: Well, we went into like a local skateboard shop and 134 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 3: bought some words there, and the owners there they were 135 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: super cool. Apparently they were like multi award winning skaters. 136 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 3: I don't know the competition for that or stacked, but 137 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 3: they were super nice, but random strangers. They they did 138 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 3: not appreciate us. But also my ex he's kind of, 139 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 3: for lack of a better term, he's pretty extra, like 140 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 3: he's just always doing way way too much. But like 141 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 3: local shops and stuff, they'd constantly see us and kick 142 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 3: us out. You can't, you can't like, So that's different 143 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 3: about Iowa and California is everything in California's packs Like 144 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 3: you can't park anywhere just to park because we lived 145 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 3: in our car. But in Iowa you could park anywhere. 146 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 3: You could park in a random person's field and that 147 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 3: like the farmer won't notice you for. 148 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 2: A while, you know, Oh yeah, No, California, you can't 149 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 2: park anywhere or else. It's weird. 150 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 6: California is weird because like in Los Angeles, if you 151 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 6: have a if you have a car and you park 152 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 6: it anywhere for five minutes, you owe the city three 153 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 6: one hundred thousand dollars. But if you have a giant 154 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 6: I don't know what this is. If you have a 155 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 6: giant RV, you can park it in the middle of 156 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 6: the street like grand theft dollars. Just get out of it, 157 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 6: just leave it there and it's for some reason. Fine, 158 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 6: it just stays there. 159 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 3: Right. No that San Diego. 160 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: Why did you go to San Diego to be homeless 161 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 2: with this guy? 162 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: Well? 163 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 3: So he was super manipulative. And it was my first 164 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,599 Speaker 3: relationship ever and I was a vergent before that, and 165 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 3: yah YadA, yaday. And he manipulated me basically because he 166 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 3: didn't like that talk to other guys, which I wasn't 167 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 3: talk to other guys like that. It was very mundane 168 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 3: human interactions. He couldn't deal with that, even you know, 169 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 3: if I worked with another male, or if I if 170 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 3: I you know, I worked at gas stations, if of 171 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 3: men came in. He didn't like that. And one day 172 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 3: he was just like, oh, well, I'm leaving, are you 173 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 3: coming with me or not?

I've been 387 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 6: like living out of airbnbs for for months and months. 388 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 6: I've been living on Airbnb's for like seven months or something, 389 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 6: and I'm you know, tired, and I'm like. 390 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 2: The opposite of cabin fever, I guess. 391 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 6: But I've just been thinking, I'm like, Okay, once I 392 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 6: finally settle down, I can get my perspective right. 393 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 2: And it's like, what the fuck does that mean. 394 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 6: It's as if it's like something that's like, Okay, once 395 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 6: this is an it's like you're delaying it. It's like, well, 396 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 6: once this is an order, and this is an order, 397 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 6: and once my life looks pretty much perfectly exactly like this, 398 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 6: which it never ever ever will, then I'll be able 399 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 6: to have good perspective. Like that's like it's just it's 400 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 6: like a hilarious thing. It's like, once once the external well, 401 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 6: it's like, once the external circumstances of my life a 402 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 6: line in some way, I will be able to have 403 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 6: a good perspective about them, And it's like that completely 404 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 6: misses the point. The whole point of perspective is to 405 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 6: be able to have it regardless of any kind of 406 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 6: external circumstances. So for me to be sitting there like, okay, hey, 407 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 6: once my circumstances hit some sort of point, I'll be 408 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 6: able to get my mind ready. 409 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 2: But also I. 410 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 3: Feel like that's a normal human thing, like justification though too. 411 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 2: You know, yeah, it is, it is, it is, but 412 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,160 Speaker 2: it's it's it feels like a race to the bottom. 413 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 2: But I don't know, I've been wrestling with. 414 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 6: You know, external versus internal in in in all of this. 415 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 6: But anyway, that's cool, man, Meth is probably really good. 416 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 6: I'm just gonna put that out there. It probably feels 417 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 6: it's not good for you, but it probably feels really good. 418 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 2: And that's why you should make people why you shouldn't 419 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 2: do it. Then, yeah, it's why you shouldn't do it. 420 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 2: That's why you should. 421 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,719 Speaker 3: Like, if I have it runningto my vans already, I 422 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 3: definitely shouldn't because I'll be you know, walking down the 423 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 3: street with no shoes and no time if I tried, 424 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 3: you know, like a progression.

What you know, whatever you're, what you what 818 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 6: you do for money, who you hang out with, where 819 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 6: you are, and a lot of these things can be 820 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 6: in your control, but a lot of them you you 821 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:18,479 Speaker 6: got to figure out. And then there's the other side 822 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 6: of the coin. There's internal, which is like, hey, listen, 823 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:24,800 Speaker 6: you could have the greatest life of the fucking world. 824 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 6: And if your perspective is shit and you're pissed off 825 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 6: all the time, or if you just or if you 826 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 6: just your brain chemicals just work against you. 827 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 2: Just have anxiety, you have. 828 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 6: Depression, it'll it'll just fuck you.
