He didn't have a hand, he had 10 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 2: a hook, and he was a cool guy. I don't 11 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 2: think I was a little intimidated by him when I 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 2: was a child, because that's just the nature of that. Yeah, 13 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:39,959 Speaker 2: I was a little intimidated by him, But now I'm like, oh, 14 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 2: what a guy to you know, really serve in his community, 15 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? 16 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 3: I don't know. 17 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a good guy. He might know he's alive. 18 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: But what's your name, Matt? 19 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: My name is Matt. Yeah, No, it's good.

But Matt, enough, yeah, and enough about all 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 2: this fucking bullshit. What's up, man? How's how's life? Would 25 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 2: would you want to talk about today? 26 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: I've been I've been trying to talk to you for ages. 27 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,119 Speaker 1: I've been listening for a long time. I actually I've 28 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: been listening to all the Spotify podcast and I actually 29 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: joined the super Cast like maybe a month ago. Yeah, 30 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: of course, of course, No, I love your content. No, 31 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: I've been trying to call for a long time because like, 32 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: the past two months of my life have been a 33 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: little chaotic, a little uh, a little eventful, more or less. 34 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: I was in a relationship for a really long time 35 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 1: or not not a really long time, like basically up 36 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: to a little a little less than two years, and 37 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: it ended a little catastrophically where I have a BPD, 38 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: so that's like borderline personality disorder. So it's really hard 39 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: for me to uh, it's really hard for me to 40 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: accept that other people like me and other people want 41 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: to be around me and all that kind of stuff. 42 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: So it made being friends with my exist friends really tough, 43 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: or at least it made it really tough for me 44 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: to see that they liked me in the time that 45 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: we were in a relationship, and it ended a little 46 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: catastrophically where I held a lie from them for a 47 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: really long time and once once I told them about 48 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: that lie during like a mental health episode. They broke 49 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 1: up with me for good reason, frankly, and then they 50 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: reached out to me and asked to try again, and 51 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I'm okay, we can do that. 52 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: And when that happened, we both agreed that we would 53 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: not see or date other people in the meantime. And 54 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: then their best friend told me that, or the best 55 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 1: friend at the time told me that they actually did 56 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: go on a date with one of our friends and 57 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: did quote unquote something. So that was a little that 58 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: was a little a bit of a backstab, and it 59 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: made the whole BPD part of the life way more 60 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: difficult to push through because it made me feel like 61 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: I validated all the facts that the people around me 62 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: at that time did not did not enjoy my presence 63 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: all that much. Also, work is a little strange. I 64 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: work at this it's it's a small company, but it's 65 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,119 Speaker 1: going to be maybe larger down the road. But I work. 66 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 1: I work at like an escape room place, and I 67 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: fixed the escape rooms. They're kind of like automated escape 68 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: rooms where just a bunch of drunk drunk children, No 69 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: not children, drunk drunk adults and kids just like break 70 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: shit in random fucking ways, and it's it's pretty miserable, 71 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: but you get to see some pretty fun stuff at 72 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: times too. 73 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 2: America's Escape room engineers are some of its most unsung heroes. 74 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, of course, of course. Yeah, we really are on 75 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: the front line. We're we're like, we're like uh ups 76 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: delivery guys during COVID. Obviously we're we're on the same tire. 77 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 2: Definitely, definitely add or above that level. 78 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, now, one hundred percent. I think the thing that 79 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: I've wanted to talk about the most, because you got 80 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: a lot of experience in this, is traveling alone. Sure, sure, 81 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: because uh, I've I've my my friend group at home 82 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: is a little strange. The ones who are extroverted don't 83 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: really like the nerd things all that much, like going 84 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: to like conventions or just conventions, I think is probably 85 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: the best example. And then all of my introverted friends 86 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: don't really want to go out to conventions because of 87 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: the whole like overwhelming social aspect and all that kind 88 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: of stuff. So it makes me really scared to uh 89 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: start the initiative to go out into the into the 90 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: world and like visit places alone and try to meet people, 91 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: because it feels like, uh, it feels like you receive 92 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: a lot of judgment for doing things alone. 93 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 2: Well, Matt, you I I appreciate all the lore that 94 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: you just dropped on yourself. I feel like I got 95 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: I feel like I very concisely just learned a lot 96 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 2: about you in a short period of time. Yeah, no, 97 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 2: don't you No, No, no either, But I hope that 98 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: didn't come off passive aggressive ily No, do you have 99 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: nothing to be sorry for? Wow? Okay, hmmm, how old 100 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 2: are you, Matt? 101 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: I'm twenty two. I'm gonna be twenty three next month. 102 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: All right, cool man. Well, would you just graduate school 103 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 2: or you've been just working? 104 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: Yeah? I graduated a little while ago, graduated last year. 105 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: I'm actually hanging out with my with one of my 106 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: old roommates from college, uh, sort of sort of Athena, 107 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: and I've been showing I've been showing them a couple 108 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: of your clips because I just liked the content. 109 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 2: So I actually, well, yeah, you dropped a lot of lore. 110 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 2: I I I'm super down to talk about. I have 111 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 2: a lot of thoughts about your particular situation about uh 112 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 2: wanting to do stuff alone. But do you I do 113 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 2: you see a real therapist to talk about BPD stuff. 114 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I do. 115 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 2: What do they how what do they have to say 116 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 2: to you? 117 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 3: Like? 118 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: How do they help you with that? 119 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 1: It's really it's kind of tough. I think the way 120 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: that they really helped me with it is it is 121 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: clearly seems like they're they're excited to talk to me 122 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 1: as a patient. Like it seems like whenever I show 123 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: up in order to talk to him on the days 124 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: that they're like excited to hear more about my life, 125 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: which that alone is enough to help me at times, 126 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: But when it comes to what they tell me, it's 127 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: a lot of you need to learn how to appreciate 128 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: yourself before you go out to appreciate other people, which 129 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: is really tough because I've tried to do that time 130 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: and time again, and every single time I end up 131 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: more relying on other people for that affection rather than 132 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 1: trying to get it out on my own, which is 133 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: why I kind of want to solo travel. But the 134 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: same exact thing, Yeah. 135 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: I like, I love I see we're get see. I 136 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: like this because you brought up a bunch of stuff 137 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 2: and then you're like, I really want to talk about that. 138 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: I want to talk about the solo travel thing, but 139 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: then we talk about the other stuff and we find 140 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: it all. 141 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: All kind of clicks together. 142 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 2: Clicks together, right, that's cool. Okay, So you're you're kind 143 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 2: of on a mission to you said that the BPD, 144 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 2: and I'm as I think I've made clear, I'm not 145 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: a real therapist and have no I don't know anything 146 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: about psychology, but like, so BPD is something and that 147 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: that is preventing you from like accepting that you have 148 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 2: like value that other people can find with that that 149 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 2: other people can find value within you. 150 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: Is that? Yeah, you know how people like dismiss compliments 151 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: sometimes when you give them compliments and stuff. It's like 152 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: that that is like a very core mechanic to my lifestyle. 153 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: Is if someone I have like an half ro for instance, 154 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: and a lot of people will be like, oh yeah, 155 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: I love your hair, and I'm like thanks. It kind 156 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: of just does its own thing. I don't really do 157 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: much to maintain it or anything. But at the same time, 158 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: I still do need to accept that people do appreciate 159 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: that part about me. 160 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Is that a problem you've had forever or 161 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 2: is it something you like developed. 162 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: I definitely had it for a very long time in 163 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: my life, like when my parents used to try to 164 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: give me affection, like just say that they love me 165 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff. I would say in 166 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: my mind or either eventually to them as I got older, 167 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: that my parents only say and try to love me 168 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: because they are my parents. 169 00:08:55,559 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 2: That's by the you know what's funny is a I A. 170 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: That's I mean you by by the fact that you're 171 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 2: self aware of what's going on with you. I think 172 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 2: you logically know that to be true. But be even 173 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 2: if it was true, that's not a bad reason. 174 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: Actually, yeah, I know it's not a it's not a 175 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: bad reason, but like you know, it's a I also artificial. 176 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: Well it's it's also I'll actually say this and I'm 177 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 2: hold on, I'm I'm I were veering off track of 178 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 2: I mean, that's all directionally whole. I take back what 179 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 2: I just said. There's no track at all. It's all 180 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 2: one thing. But I mean, your parents don't totally don't 181 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 2: have to love you at all. So that's yeah, that's. 182 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: What I've learned from the show for sure, is that 183 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: I YEA, that's what I b that's that's what I 184 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 1: make me. I get have parents that make me a 185 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 1: drug dealer at seventeen years old. 186 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 2: Right right, Bro, That's what I was on the phone 187 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 2: with my mom today and I was just going off 188 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 2: on her about like, uh, I was just so grateful 189 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: that she, uh, you know, loved me and gave me 190 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 2: the foundation for my life. It's five all. I've also really, 191 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 2: I feel like, learned that from doing this show. So 192 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 2: you know, it's not a given necessarily that your parents 193 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 2: love you. So I don't. I I mean, we could 194 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:17,479 Speaker 2: get into the whole thing of that not being artificial, 195 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 2: but one, yeah, I don't. I don't think that's started 196 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 2: off for show at all because it's just it's not 197 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 2: a given as as you know. But what else does 198 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 2: your therapist tell you about, like the actual logistical process 199 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 2: of building up your self esteem? 200 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: Oh?

It's it's 310 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: tough to kind of break the mold of how I 311 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: view my own self image.

Is a 322 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 2: thing that take can even take years of like intentional 323 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 2: effort and sometimes just through living life, you know, yeah, 324 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 2: by and what I mean by like and the thing, 325 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 2: the thing being raising your self esteem and changing the 326 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 2: quality of your thoughts and perspectives about yourself and the 327 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: world is not an overnight thing.

It's not gonna be an 330 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 2: overnight thing, but I do think a lot of it 331 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 2: does require Okay, so to go into like the solo 332 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 2: travel ship and the business shit, A lot of it 333 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: does require like some form of external evidence of your 334 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: own competence. I think is helpful. But even but you could, 335 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 2: even part of me thinks it's like a Yin and 336 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 2: Yang thing and they like for the the the external 337 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 2: validation of your own competence and feeds into your internal 338 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 2: view of yourself. But I don't know. I don't know 339 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 2: if we have to get all fucking I was gonna say, 340 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 2: I don't know if we have to get all capitalist 341 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 2: about it, but maybe we Maybe we do. I don't know. 342 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 2: I'm somewhere in between. But let me ask let me 343 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: ask you this. Do you like have you made any 344 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: like intentional efforts to like change your thought patterns? 345 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 4: Yeah? 346 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: Actually your podcast has helped a lot with that. Great 347 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: Originally I used to be really recently, I think your 348 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: last few podcasts episodes have been going into absurdism and nihilism. Yeah, 349 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: And I'm trying to I'm trying to reshape my thought 350 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: into the the nothing matters in a really depressing way 351 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: and being like nothing matters, so what's the point to anything, 352 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: and reshaping it into nothing matters, so you should just 353 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 1: try everything. Yeah, that's That's definitely been the biggest mindset 354 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: that I'm trying to turn myself around to. I think 355 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: the issue is consistency because like the whole thing with 356 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: like BPD is that you kind of go through these 357 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 1: these large mood swings where and in some point of time, uh, 358 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: you're going through like hypo manic phases where you feel 359 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: like you feel like God almost you, you feel like 360 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: you can do anything, and you're some unstoppable force, and 361 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: then it all goes crashing and burning down and you're 362 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 1: next thing, you know, you're just sitting alone in your 363 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: room thinking about how you, uh, how you should end it, 364 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: and uh, it's it's really it's a really hard and 365 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: abrupt change where it's it's hard to keep that that 366 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: momentum of consistency where you're constantly trying to tell yourself 367 00:19:54,240 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: that the that the effort in uh you're doing does 368 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: matter even if it doesn't work out. 369 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 2: Do you take medication? 370 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: Yeah? I do? 371 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 2: Is it hows that work for you? Is it good? 372 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: It's uh, it's pretty good. It definitely. 373 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 4: Uh. 374 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: I can I say the medication or am I not going. 375 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 2: To do whatever you want? 376 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: I take Quittapoline and Sarah Quill QUI quait tapoline. Yeah, 377 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: it's a little weird one. 378 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 2: That sounds like a Pokemon. 379 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: It kind of does. That's a good point. Yeah, no, 380 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: that one. Uh, quit tapoline is pretty good. That's the 381 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 1: one for BPD. And then and then uh, Sarah Quill 382 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: is like kind of yeah, Sarah Quill is kind of 383 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: like an energy booster almost. 384 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 2: Sarah Quill actually does sound like a Pokemon, you know, 385 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 2: sind Quill. 386 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, they do, both of them. Do I think quaitapoline 387 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: would be more like a water Pokemon. 388 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 2: Quintapoline sounds like the evolution of Sarah Quill. Like ever, 389 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 2: Quill is like the base one Yeah, a base one 390 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 2: Pokemon and then the the like the level three evolution 391 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 2: is Quintapola. 392 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: Is that we said quintaboline, Yeah, something like that. I 393 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: always butchered the name of it too. Don't worry about it. 394 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 2: How long have you been on those? 395 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: I've been on it for maybe six eight months. I 396 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 1: started to take it. I had a really bad mental 397 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: health episode a little while ago, and I went to 398 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: a mental health hospital for I think like a week, 399 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 1: and during that time they got me situated with those 400 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: those medications. I think the only downside with quitapoline is 401 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,919 Speaker 1: that it makes you really tired. So I have to 402 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: take it at I have to take it at night 403 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: or no, I'm sorry, I have to take it in 404 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,199 Speaker 1: the morning because if I take it at night, I 405 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: sleep through alarms and everything. 406 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 2: But but I guess do you feel a nice difference 407 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 2: pre taking it to post taking it? 408 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: You know, it's really hard to notice. To be completely honest, 409 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: I would like to say yes. But at the same time, 410 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: my life has still been kind of a train wreck 411 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 1: and I have a lot of uh. I still have 412 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: a lot of internal struggles. 413 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 2: So why is your life a train wreck? 414 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: It feels like it's not actually a train wreck. You know, 415 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: I'm building up to be worse than it actually is. Really, 416 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: I just kind of catch myself in this dumer mentality 417 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: where I'm like, I can't do anything in my situation. 418 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: There's nothing I can do to fix this. Like I 419 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: feel like I it feels like I missed the train 420 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 1: almost where like the chance to turn my life around 421 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: is uh, it's it's I don't I feel like I 422 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: missed the opportunity to make things great. 423 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 2: Like I uh yeah, give me some, give me some. 424 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,679 Speaker 1: Like some examples, one would be like I wanted to 425 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,120 Speaker 1: start like a YouTube channel, but it feels like YouTube 426 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 1: is kind of like gone down in quality or like 427 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: getting getting the getting the momentum to build like a 428 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 1: even small audience in a place like that is something 429 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,199 Speaker 1: that has been significantly harder to do post COVID. So 430 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: feels like that that chance to build something along that 431 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: line would be uh impossible because of uh how loud 432 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: and oversaturated the like community making scene as I suppose, 433 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: like you you you got you got therapy got co 434 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: to be popular because of the whole Reddit thing that 435 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: was going on through uh through COVID. 436 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 2: True, yeah, I got, I got. I got lucky with 437 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 2: kind of uh finding that that medium on Reddit. By anyway, 438 00:23:54,520 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 2: enough about stupid me, but uh that your life is 439 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 2: a train wreck. 440 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: The other thing is like I want to do the 441 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 1: three D printing thing where I three D printed it's 442 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: a little uh the hexagons and then make them like 443 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: LED signs but on light sits like Etsy actually banned 444 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: three D products three D printed products from their platform recently, 445 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 1: mostly because there it mostly because all the three D 446 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: printed products that were being sold on there are like garbage. 447 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 3: You know. 448 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: Have you ever seen like those little like three D 449 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: printed dragons? 450 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, you know. You know, here's the thing. What 451 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 2: whether whether or not your market analysis of the things 452 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 2: that you want to do is rooted in truth or 453 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 2: not is not to me, the I guess spiritually interesting 454 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 2: part of the equation. To me, it would be more like, look, 455 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 2: would you be happier knowing you gave it today? Shot not. 456 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: I've always thought about that, And that's the thing that 457 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: stops me from actually making like the big step into uh, 458 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 1: into doing stuff like that. It uh. It's a lot 459 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 1: of people say like, you succeed as long as you try, 460 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 1: but I feel like that's not necessarily true because you 461 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 1: have to use resources in order to get there in 462 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: the first place. You know, Like I use my time, 463 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: I use my effort, I use money all those sorts 464 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: of things, and those are things that I can't get 465 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: back whether I succeed or fail. And if I fail 466 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: and I get nothing back from it, then what was 467 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 1: the point of it? All, it's not like it doesn't 468 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: feel like I learned some sort of lesson. It feels 469 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: like I just kind of fiddled my thumbs and walked 470 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: in circles. 471 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's that.

And then there's also like Comic Con and 491 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff or Pax East to Pax West. 492 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: I've never actually been on the western side of the US. 493 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: I've only been in I've only been in New England 494 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: more or less my entire life. So I I would 495 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: like to go out and explore more of what this 496 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: world has. But I feel like I've always locked myself 497 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: down to not having the opportunity to either because of 498 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: school or money or taking time off work stuff like that. 499 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: It feels like, UH, there's a there's a lot of 500 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: convention the phrase that the conventions that I would like 501 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: to go to. I think the main ones right now 502 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: would be like Comic Connor Packs East or Pax West, 503 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: and I would like to do stuff like cost playing 504 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: all that kind of thing. But UH as UH, there's 505 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 1: two stuff. There's two things to it. Putting the effort 506 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: in into UH making a costplay is UH is a 507 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: lot of effort, And I feel like I would almost 508 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: embarrass myself by going to UH by going to a 509 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: convention cost playing alone or the other one is just 510 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: like it feels it's impossible to meet people because being 511 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 1: being alone in a situation makes it feel like you 512 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 1: don't have the social acceptance of others. So people would 513 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: instantly dismiss you for being like weird or potentially evil, 514 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: well potentially evil. 515 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 2: Well, well, a few counterpoints to that is one, I 516 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 2: think I don't know what the vibe is at at 517 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 2: Pas Easter PEX. Well, I don't really know what the 518 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 2: vibe is that Like, uh, I mean, comic Con is 519 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 2: like a huge, huge, crazy commercial thing. I don't know. 520 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 2: I don't know anything about packs. But like these littler 521 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: places like the Lovecraft Con and like Herst Con and 522 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 2: the other shit is like these are specifically places that 523 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 2: people go to because they're weird and because they feel 524 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 2: inherently outcasted by who they are. Like that's the fucking 525 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 2: point is they've inherently create any of these spaces because 526 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 2: they feel the way that you feel. And then the 527 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 2: magic of the space is that all those people who 528 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 2: feel the same way they combine and have this like 529 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 2: niche interest over which to bond, right, And so it 530 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,959 Speaker 2: like it's funny. I was laughing a little bit when 531 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 2: you were talking, because it's like the thing you're afraid 532 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 2: of is the point of the thing, you know what I'm. 533 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: Saying, Yeah, yeah, you're not wrong, And that's what I 534 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: try to convince myself of. It's like, do you ever 535 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: get lonely when you're when you're traveling around? Like for yeah, 536 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: like the one thing that the one thing that I 537 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: dread the most is like getting a hotel room, setting 538 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: myself up in the hotel room, and then going out 539 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: there and then coming back alone. 540 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 2: Yeah sure, yeah, well let's see. Okay, So where are 541 00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 2: you trying to go to? Packs? 542 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: Frankly anywhere. I haven't had the time to really look 543 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: around for what I've wanted to do because this, uh, 544 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: this change has been a little abrupt. I've been in 545 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: I've been in Rhode Island my whole life, so I 546 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 1: haven't Uh, I haven't really been able to experience experience 547 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: all that much when it comes to, uh what the 548 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: other states have to offer and what other things there 549 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: are to see beyond what I already know about, Like 550 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: I would like to know more about some more obscure conventions, 551 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: but I don't even know how to hunt them down. 552 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 2: Who do you what do you like? What do you into? 553 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:32,479 Speaker 2: Love Craft? 554 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 3: Uh? 555 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, now, HV Lovecraft is definitely one of them. Gundam's 556 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: another one. Uh. Just a big fan of communities, uh, 557 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: like communities around like computer science, Like, uh, how I 558 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: explain it? I wish I wish there was a lot. 559 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 2: Second, what what part? What part of the country you 560 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 2: when you're in Rhode Islands. 561 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm in Rhode Island.

I have like evidence 827 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:26,920 Speaker 2: now for myself of what can be if I get 828 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 2: over the the hurdle. 829 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 1: Uh it's true. 830 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 2: So yeah, dude, I I hope you do it. I 831 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 2: really do. I think. Uh, there's I it's I don't. 832 00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 2: I don't like solo traveling as much anymore because it 833 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 2: it's it's intense. But I I think like, if you've 834 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:51,839 Speaker 2: never done it before, the feeling of putting yourself out there, 835 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 2: meeting someone new and having an experience that you didn't 836 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 2: think you could have is great. And it just happens 837 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 2: as a byproduct of having the like courage to put 838 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 2: yourself out there. So I hope. I hope you do it. 839 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 2: You know. And also you're not I only I've only 840 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 2: been talking to you for forty five minutes, but you 841 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:14,720 Speaker 2: present to me as a well put together a person, 842 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like if we were having 843 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,799 Speaker 2: this conversation and I and I felt off put by you, 844 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:23,439 Speaker 2: Even if I felt off put by you, I still 845 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 2: would say all these things, because even because I gotta 846 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:29,800 Speaker 2: tell you something, Matt, you could be like three hundred 847 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 2: percent crazier you could, Matt, I think you could be 848 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:38,280 Speaker 2: five times as crazy as you actually are and still 849 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 2: make a lot of friends at this anime convention. I 850 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 2: believe that sincerely, you're. 851 00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 1: Like, I think it easier. 852 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 2: You're no, You're no, You're nowhere near past to the 853 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,359 Speaker 2: amount of crazy that you have to be to be 854 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:54,840 Speaker 2: unable to make friends at an anime convention. 855 00:47:55,840 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 1: That's true. What, Yeah, I just think that, like, if 856 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,480 Speaker 1: I was crazier, it would actually be easier to meet 857 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:07,839 Speaker 1: people because it sounds like you're more of an interesting personality. 858 00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 2: Well, no, it would be easier. You know, there's like 859 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 2: an optimal level of conscientiousness that a human being can 860 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 2: have because we all know, we all know guys who 861 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 2: are like, have zero conscientiousness and say what they just 862 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 2: say whatever comes to them, and they're like really annoying 863 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 2: and they do they just do shit right, And because 864 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 2: of that they have a lot of people who are 865 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,640 Speaker 2: like that guy fucking sucks and is annoying. But also 866 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:41,359 Speaker 2: because of that, they just they end up taking more 867 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 2: chances and they leave they live more interesting lives, and 868 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,799 Speaker 2: they are less concerned with how annoying people think they 869 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 2: are because they're just they have low They're not even 870 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 2: thinking about it. They just have no conscientiousness. They're just 871 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:59,320 Speaker 2: hurling themselves into the universe. And that leads people into 872 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 2: into but it also leads them into opportunity. And then 873 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 2: on the opposite side is the guy who just never 874 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,759 Speaker 2: says anything to anyone who takes any chances ever, because oh, 875 00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 2: because there might be danger. Right, You don't want to 876 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 2: be that guy either, So you want to You want 877 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 2: the you want and I think you're actually the I 878 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 2: just from talking to you. You're you want to aim. 879 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 2: You want to aim somewhere in the middle where you're 880 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:26,320 Speaker 2: conscientious enough that you're not like being a complete uh 881 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,319 Speaker 2: insane person, but you're not too conscientious that you're never 882 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 2: putting yourself out there at all. You want to be 883 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 2: somewhere acutely in the middle. You want to be somewhere 884 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 2: acutely in the middle, edging towards a lack of conscientiousness. 885 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,839 Speaker 1: Possibly, Yeah, I agree, I agree. I think it's better 886 00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 1: to be on the lack of conscientiousness, better to. 887 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 2: Be on the lack of conscience too. Much at least 888 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 2: for you, maybe not. 889 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 1: For better to ask for forgiveness than permission. 890 00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,760 Speaker 2: Well better for you, maybe not better for society though. 891 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,880 Speaker 1: Know yeah, well yeah, yeah, people people. 892 00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 2: On the people who lack conscientiousness of any kind. They 893 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 2: they live, they they personally do well and then fuck 894 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 2: fuck up a bunch of shit.

About a month ago, 965 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 2: about two months ago, I decided that there was no 966 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:34,760 Speaker 2: point in ever exercising again because I was just gonna 967 00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 2: die anyway, like severely lost and not. I only I 968 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:45,279 Speaker 2: only I don't want to be like toxic positivity or 969 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:47,920 Speaker 2: really do I. I just I just only have my 970 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 2: own personal experience with existential nihilism to draw off of. 971 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 2: And I truly I felt as though there was no 972 00:53:56,520 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 2: point in like exercising because I was just gonna die anyway. 973 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,520 Speaker 2: Way It's and now I'm like, that's insane. I don't 974 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:07,360 Speaker 2: I have all I have all the same information that 975 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:11,240 Speaker 2: I had then, but I just don't.

And not that 979 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,919 Speaker 2: my personal experience is gonna reflect yours. But I guess 980 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 2: I just think that from from my own perspective.
