It's about it's about 788 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,839 Speaker 2: the group. It's not about the person. And like the 789 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 2: person is a substitute for a reason for them to 790 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 2: hang out like online virtually. So like that's why, like 791 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 2: that's why certain people have to be a thing, because 792 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 2: they have to be a thing because we need a thing. 793 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 2: Like yeah, you know, I think, you know, like and 794 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 2: I you know, I have any shade towards nobody. 795 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 3: I really I didn't even really listen. 796 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:34,320 Speaker 2: I don't know, because like that's like like I finally 797 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 2: hit forty and then I was just like I don't 798 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 2: have to be involved.

Oh, no, 1009 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 1: I don't want I don't want this.

So 1012 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,080 Speaker 1: it's like and but I will say that I love 1013 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 1: reality TV because I'm of the opinion that equality is 1014 00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:26,879 Speaker 1: getting to be as terrible as everybody else has. The 1015 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:30,839 Speaker 1: luxury of individualism is that your flaws are yours and 1016 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 1: they don't they aren't like a shared quality of a 1017 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 1: group or whatever. And so uh, I was I was 1018 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:41,960 Speaker 1: like trying to explain to her that I feel like, oh, okay, 1019 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 1: you know reality TV is, don't We're not turning this 1020 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:50,160 Speaker 1: into a things peace. Don't go talking about practice here 1021 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:53,680 Speaker 1: and there, Okay, woman chat or whatever. I just mean that, like, 1022 00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: in a space that is dominated by men, as is 1023 00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:01,840 Speaker 1: most things, right, like television writing and character development and 1024 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:05,240 Speaker 1: things like that, reality is the one place for girls 1025 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:08,799 Speaker 1: to break out in the way that men don't have 1026 00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:12,560 Speaker 1: control over or don't shape, similar to the way that 1027 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:19,120 Speaker 1: like men condescend about makeup or modeling as of an industry, 1028 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 1: but they don't. They don't let us do the serious, 1029 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,880 Speaker 1: important things they could get masculine for whatever. So we 1030 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:29,759 Speaker 1: go out and do these things. And I think of 1031 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 1: reality TV as like, where on fucking Earth does a 1032 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 1: television show feature fifty year old women being terrible? 1033 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:38,919 Speaker 3: Right? 1034 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:42,880 Speaker 1: We have all these TV shows like Better Call Saul, 1035 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 1: the Sopranos, all these middle aged than older men being 1036 00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 1: terrible and being heroes, and we're doing it. But the 1037 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:56,920 Speaker 1: minute girls want to be terrible on TV, it's trash TV. 1038 00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 1: You don't want it. And then when they go you 1039 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:03,879 Speaker 1: you're not gonna script us as complicated figures. So we're 1040 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 1: gonna be complicated ourselves, like in our real life. As 1041 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:12,680 Speaker 1: they capture people. People want to reject it or whatever whatever, 1042 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 1: but it's it's there's an honesty in that, and people 1043 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:23,359 Speaker 1: love to pretend they don't like it. People don't. They 1044 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:26,439 Speaker 1: don't engage honestly with anything. And I don't know who 1045 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,920 Speaker 1: we are all performing for, because we also all hate 1046 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,880 Speaker 1: the people we gotta play for. I don't get it 1047 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:33,799 Speaker 1: eat what's going on. 1048 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 6: And it's really wild though, because truth be told, a 1049 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 6: lot of the people are really quick to tell you 1050 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:41,840 Speaker 6: what they don't like, but they will never tell you 1051 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 6: what they like. Okay, okay, okay, you don't like it, 1052 00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:46,359 Speaker 6: let me hear what you like, because see, if they 1053 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,840 Speaker 6: tell you what they like, they know that shit is 1054 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:51,640 Speaker 6: coining to somebody else. Because a lot of people's thing 1055 00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:54,800 Speaker 6: is just to go around and tell people that's wrong 1056 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:58,400 Speaker 6: with everything in the world. Because actually the problem ain't me, 1057 00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:01,640 Speaker 6: it's you. It's something can you that you're unhappy? So 1058 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:06,160 Speaker 6: you scroll online to bust up in everybody's party and 1059 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,719 Speaker 6: kick over the cake and pop the balloons and kick 1060 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:10,440 Speaker 6: the record play over because you're unhappy. 1061 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 4: I ain't got nothing to do with that. And also, uh, 1062 00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:14,360 Speaker 4: to piggyback on what you said before. 1063 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 6: I think that when people make these lists, what a 1064 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:19,600 Speaker 6: lot of times what they see is that the it's 1065 00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:22,840 Speaker 6: documentaries and motherfuckers, you don't watch them a lot of 1066 00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 6: times what they I don't want this and I want it. 1067 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 6: I don't if it's fiction, you want real?

And maybe this is controversial, but 1525 01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:43,840 Speaker 1: La black people, in my opinion, don't respect blackness in 1526 01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:50,040 Speaker 1: a way that I understand and get, Like, God, forgive me, 1527 01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:52,479 Speaker 1: this is a terrible sentiment, but it's true.

This is just 1797 01:36:32,880 --> 01:36:36,040 Speaker 1: my opinion on a thing that I don't write for 1798 01:36:36,120 --> 01:36:39,559 Speaker 1: anymore because we're on hiatus. I'm not there. Who knows 1799 01:36:39,600 --> 01:36:43,200 Speaker 1: what my future looks like. But I just thought that 1800 01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:50,560 Speaker 1: it was really wild because the space for white productions 1801 01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:54,759 Speaker 1: and like white supremacy is internalized even in the wokest 1802 01:36:54,800 --> 01:37:00,479 Speaker 1: of peace. It is because Euphoria was aaron on h 1803 01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:03,639 Speaker 1: HBO at about the same time, and I remember somebody 1804 01:37:03,720 --> 01:37:07,479 Speaker 1: wrote on Twitter like a huge thread and hey, god, 1805 01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:10,639 Speaker 1: so many retweets, and I was just appalled by how 1806 01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:14,280 Speaker 1: popular that thread was. Where that person sat down and 1807 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:17,880 Speaker 1: broke down why we were suburban and not black enough, 1808 01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:21,479 Speaker 1: and how all of the black women on HBO are 1809 01:37:21,479 --> 01:37:23,760 Speaker 1: exactly the same. And I'm like, there's no fucking way 1810 01:37:23,840 --> 01:37:26,839 Speaker 1: that you have watched any of the shows that feature 1811 01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:29,080 Speaker 1: black women on HBO and think that they are the same. 1812 01:37:29,160 --> 01:37:33,840 Speaker 1: Because Phoebe is my fucking girl.

And Beya say, there's nothing that a black woman, 2254 02:00:45,440 --> 02:00:48,840 Speaker 1: in my opinion, could do that that one song that 2255 02:00:48,880 --> 02:00:51,560 Speaker 1: could make us forgive us for make us forgive her 2256 02:00:51,600 --> 02:00:52,560 Speaker 1: for all tips of seconds. 2257 02:00:52,560 --> 02:00:56,600 Speaker 6: No, no, because when it comes down to it, men 2258 02:00:56,680 --> 02:00:59,720 Speaker 6: can be forgiven. Women are not to be forgiven, and 2259 02:01:00,240 --> 02:01:04,440 Speaker 6: that nest people don't want to talk about what depends. 2260 02:01:03,840 --> 02:01:07,960 Speaker 1: That's frustrating because then it makes us have to contend 2261 02:01:08,040 --> 02:01:10,720 Speaker 1: with each other.

I have to say 2399 02:08:46,480 --> 02:08:49,440 Speaker 1: it was totally fine. What this, Nigga says, or I 2400 02:08:49,480 --> 02:08:54,920 Speaker 1: have to say he is a rapist, dessore my favorite 2401 02:08:55,040 --> 02:08:59,160 Speaker 1: rapist on them portance, nig I don't.

I hate that fucking phrase, 2790 02:30:12,000 --> 02:30:13,320 Speaker 6: but a lot of people believe that. 2791 02:30:13,480 --> 02:30:16,520 Speaker 1: Do you have any boy children in your life? Though? 2792 02:30:16,560 --> 02:30:19,640 Speaker 1: Because I learned women or children are not supposed to 2793 02:30:19,640 --> 02:30:22,440 Speaker 1: be seen, children are not supposed to are supposed to 2794 02:30:22,520 --> 02:30:25,039 Speaker 1: be seen and not heard.
