Speaker 1: Flex and fruits on Kita.
Speaker 2: Hello everybody, so lovely to have you here.
Speaker 3: Today.
Speaker 4: We're going to be talking about milk, personally massive milk
Speaker 4: drink absolutly love sucking that shit back half on it.
Speaker 3: Do you know how to say milk in Dutch? Milk?
Speaker 2: Milk?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 1: True?
Speaker 3: Nice?
Speaker 1: Cool?
Speaker 3: I do not drink it.
Speaker 6: I did strawberry milk when I was in primary school.
Speaker 3: It's a year five drink.
Speaker 6: Yes, And I definitely loved crunching Out. That was my
Speaker 6: favorite cereal. Oh yeah, yeah, you know, why did you
Speaker 6: make that face?
Speaker 2: It's like crunching nut. That's wrong, crunch milk.
Speaker 6: No, it's the cereal. But I had regular milk in
Speaker 6: the crunchy nut. But here's a thing. Had this very
Speaker 6: traumatic experience with the cereal. So I left it open
Speaker 6: one day, which you're not meant to do. But I
Speaker 6: didn't know why. You know how you just build habits
Speaker 6: because your parents tell you to, and then one day
Speaker 6: you left your own devices. You don't do it, as
Speaker 6: they say, consequences. So I had some crunch I left
Speaker 6: it open. It got infested with ants. Then the next
Speaker 6: day I went and made myself crunching Out poured it
Speaker 6: in the bowl, put the milk in, wasn't paying attention,
Speaker 6: started eating it, ants all in the bowl off, crunching
Speaker 6: out off milk and never again. Yeah, but the traumatizing
Speaker 6: stories don't stop there, because there is an eight year
Speaker 6: waitless to get a rental in Sweden. And that sounds
Speaker 6: like clickbait, but it's not. I found the information from TikTok,
Speaker 6: but then I did fact check it and it's in
Speaker 6: fact correct. Turns out that having rent control properties great idea,
Speaker 6: but not when your population is steadily increasing and there's
Speaker 6: no more supply to meat demand.
Speaker 3: Very depressing.
Speaker 4: And then of course, finally we're going to talk about
Speaker 4: one of our favorite apps. To talk about, not our
Speaker 4: personal favorite apps, but something that we like to discuss.
Speaker 3: Yes, only fans.
Speaker 6: The anthropological phenomena around only fans. How do we live
Speaker 6: in a society where people can get banned off Instagram
Speaker 6: for legally doing.
Speaker 3: Sex work, but.
Speaker 6: Now you can have only fans and just promote it,
Speaker 6: And how it's actually a pyramid scheme, heavy stick around stuff,
Speaker 6: heavy well research stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that from you. Done pretty well today,
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 1: This is flex and frooms.
Speaker 4: I have a story that was sent in for us,
Speaker 4: and as always, we need to decide who's the asshole
Speaker 4: in the scenario.
Speaker 3: Oh cheeky am, I the asshole that favorite.
Speaker 4: Okay, let me take a breath. Guys, I have asthma
Speaker 4: or something. I'm just telling all the listeners. So if
Speaker 4: you hear me hea heavy breathing, just know that it's
Speaker 4: it's an issue. I'm not nervous.
Speaker 3: You do sound them. That's always they can't breathe.
Speaker 6: We will have to discuss this one day, because maybe
Speaker 6: four weeks ago, maybe three, I was sitting opposite through
Speaker 6: me as I do, and I heard her panting breathing
Speaker 6: so loudly across the room that I had to ask,
Speaker 6: is everything okay? Why are you breathing this way, to
Speaker 6: which Rumy said, I think I've got long COVID.
Speaker 3: Something's wrong. Something is definitely not right. Something's wrong. Okay.
Speaker 4: So here's a scenario, Dear flexing frooms. I am an
Speaker 4: enormous milk drinker. If I'm given the option of milk
Speaker 4: or a can of coke, I would choose the milk
Speaker 4: a thousand times over. It doesn't matter if it's forty
Speaker 4: degrees outside. I will drink full cream milk preferably strawberry
Speaker 4: or any kind of highly artificial flavor.
Speaker 3: I was strawberry full cream.
Speaker 4: Let me not get into it is full cream plus some.
Speaker 4: I would drink milk over water if I could. I
Speaker 4: am anti lactose intolerant. The other day, I came home
Speaker 4: after work and opened the fridge right away for my
Speaker 4: pre dinner snack in brackets, I drink from the bottle.
Speaker 4: I live in a sharehouse, but my housemate nos it's
Speaker 4: my milk, and he doesn't really drink milk anyway. So
Speaker 4: I come in through the door and notice that my
Speaker 4: housemate is in the fridge, and I hear a commotion
Speaker 4: where he's obviously trying to put the lid back onto
Speaker 4: the bottle. It falls, and so it's obvious that he
Speaker 4: was drinking my milk.
Speaker 3: It gets better. I didn't mention this earlier because.
Speaker 4: I wanted to shock you, But my girlfriend and I
Speaker 4: had a baby recently.
Speaker 3: Going she has.
Speaker 4: Been lactating, and so I put a decoy bottle in
Speaker 4: there with some strawberry milk style dye. I had to
Speaker 4: get revenge. I don't know if he's strengthen it yet,
Speaker 4: but I need to know. Am I the asshole. Yes,
Speaker 4: here's the asshole.
Speaker 3: Here's the thing. Number one.
Speaker 6: If you're starting a fresh new family, it's not time
Speaker 6: for housemates.
Speaker 3: Okay, get out of there.
Speaker 6: We shouldn't be doing housemate and milk bottle decoys when
Speaker 6: you're a whole father with somebody's dad.
Speaker 3: Doing pink food dye into milk for revenge. It's so silly.
Speaker 3: It's demonic of all things.
Speaker 6: If it's in the fridge and it's yours, it's yours,
Speaker 6: it's totally fine.
Speaker 3: But if you have to go out of your.
Speaker 6: Way to do trickeries so people don't have your things,
Speaker 6: then either buy more so it can be shared, or
Speaker 6: get your own fridge.
Speaker 3: I just think your own fringe.
Speaker 6: This is a lot of commotion for what is a
Speaker 6: three dollar per liter Beavy. Somebody needs to move out,
Speaker 6: get a new fridge, or buy enough for the whole
Speaker 6: house to share your If your housemate wants milk so
Speaker 6: badly that they're hunched off the fridge, tip have some
Speaker 6: milk literally hiding behind the door.
Speaker 4: Well, I've got to be on the side of the
Speaker 4: guy who bought the milk. I personally also am a
Speaker 4: large milk drinker, like could drink milk three times a day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, any kind.
Speaker 4: Of like probably started with a skim just for like
Speaker 4: that's like how to get into it. Gateway obviously drank
Speaker 4: it when I was a kid, but as an adult,
Speaker 4: I think you like, oh my, you're.
Speaker 3: Like huntry milk anymore. It's for a kid.
Speaker 4: But now I'm fully into it, and I don't like
Speaker 4: sharing drinks full stop.
Speaker 3: Makes me feel sick. All I'm picturing is their mouth
Speaker 3: on my drink and the backwash. It's inevitable.
Speaker 4: Literally, I can't even say the word backwash without grim micing.
Speaker 4: And I feel like milk is a very particular type
Speaker 4: of drink where you don't want backwash. Yes, And so
Speaker 4: if my housemate, if I caught my housemate doing that,
Speaker 4: I would just think, how long has this been going on?
Speaker 4: How long has my strawberry milk been bastardized with your
Speaker 4: gross backwash the old twim portrayal. I would feel very betrayed.
Speaker 4: And so I personally and also am also a fan
Speaker 4: of pulling pranks. So I'm fully with the guy. I
Speaker 4: think he was did the right thing.
Speaker 6: Ill, Well, this is why I don't live with people,
Speaker 6: because number one, if we are doing pranks over such
Speaker 6: a common, common thing you can find for so.
Speaker 3: For so cheap, it's not worth it.
Speaker 6: It all just seems so petty and unnecessary, and I
Speaker 6: hate it.
Speaker 3: It's a petty brank my years. He's definitely drinks. I
Speaker 3: don't like. I don't like cheap, petty pranks.
Speaker 6: I think that if they were drinking your what is
Speaker 6: a more premium champagne?
Speaker 5: Mom?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 6: If you've gone out of your way to get really
Speaker 6: nice premium sour doughs, like nine dollars a loaf and
Speaker 6: someone just like EA, hacking into it, that's annoying. Right,
Speaker 6: You've gone out of your way to go to farmer's
Speaker 6: market to get some organic fruits and veggies and someone
Speaker 6: just like having their fair share.
Speaker 3: Not on but milk.
Speaker 6: H That feels like the equivalent of getting mad at
Speaker 6: someone for having the video tomato sauce.
Speaker 3: Hell the cameras.
Speaker 1: This is flex and frooms.
Speaker 6: I was doing the Google's as I do, and I
Speaker 6: found out that at Disney World, have you been, I've
Speaker 6: not been.
Speaker 3: No, neither, not a Disney kind of girl.
Speaker 6: Sad do you have to be a Disney person to
Speaker 6: go and enjoy? I'm not a lunar park person, I've
Speaker 6: showed up.
Speaker 3: Chair share. Cool.
Speaker 6: But they pump different fragrances into the air. Did I fragrance? Fragrance?
Speaker 6: I heard fragrance? Okay, good, and I said fragrances. They
Speaker 6: pump different fragrances into the air to simulate different reactions
Speaker 6: from people.
Speaker 3: So if you're in.
Speaker 6: If you're walking towards the food section, they'll pump popcorn
Speaker 6: smells in the air.
Speaker 3: She'd be like, Oh, what's that? What's that? I want?
Speaker 3: I want to snack. I'm so hungry, And I just
Speaker 3: think it's so genius.
Speaker 6: Some people say it's a little bit manipulative, but isn't
Speaker 6: that consumerism?
Speaker 4: I think all of the above. So wait, what would
Speaker 4: they do if you're going towards like the scary train.
Speaker 6: So for example, if you're going into like a wilderness area,
Speaker 6: they'll pump heavy rain water scents just to amplify what's
Speaker 6: already quote unquote naturally there, what should be there.
Speaker 3: If Disney was a real place, that is so want
Speaker 3: to the experience amazing, And this is every disney Land.
Speaker 3: I didn't know there was more than one. What do
Speaker 3: you mean, I said, disney World, Disneyland.
Speaker 4: There's like Disney Lands all over the world, Japan, America,
Speaker 4: just not in Australia. Nah, we're not Disney kind of
Speaker 4: people down here.
Speaker 3: Do you watch Disney? I don't watch any of those
Speaker 3: kids shows. Did you watch them as a kid though?
Speaker 4: No. I was one of those adult children me too,
Speaker 4: and I think it shows it does show alas alas
Speaker 4: there we go. Well, great start to the afternoon. I'm
Speaker 4: in a Disney kind of mood. Now I need Little
Speaker 4: Mickey Mouse.
Speaker 6: E is no free press for mister Walt Disney rip.
Speaker 1: You're listening to flex and Frooms on Kita.
Speaker 6: There's been a rental crisis in Australia and all over
Speaker 6: the world for a little while now, but it's escalated
Speaker 6: due to a few economic issues that we won't get into.
Speaker 6: But as I was doing my daily scrolls, I came
Speaker 6: across this. I don't want to call it a bizarre video,
Speaker 6: but I definitely thought it was clickbaity in nature. This
Speaker 6: person said that there's been an eight year wait list
Speaker 6: for a rental in Sweden, So that I say, I
Speaker 6: don't know what the math is on that, but it
Speaker 6: wasn't mathing for me. I know that rental shortages happened
Speaker 6: for a ton of different reasons. Maybe it's because houses
Speaker 6: are less affordable, which means that in order for someone's
Speaker 6: mortgage to be paid into up the rent because their
Speaker 6: interest rates are gone up. Sure, Or maybe they are
Speaker 6: just less options than before. People are buying houses and
Speaker 6: they're not doing anything with them, just holding on to them,
Speaker 6: like stock Right. So when I do my googles, here's.
Speaker 3: What I come across this video. Oh you're sweetish.
Speaker 5: We're in sweeteno from I'm from Stockholm. I love Stockholm.
Speaker 5: I'm actually applying for jobs right right now. Oh okay,
Speaker 5: do you know anyone you can stay with?
Speaker 4: That?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 5: I just thought i'd rent somewhere, you know. See the
Speaker 5: thing is there's an eight year waitless to get a
Speaker 5: rental flat in Stockholm. What eight years?
Speaker 3: Eight years?
Speaker 5: What do people do when they're waiting for eight years? Well,
Speaker 5: you can buy a flat. I kind of feel to
Speaker 5: buy a flat, not really flatch has but you can
Speaker 5: live with a living landlord sometimes live in landlord. No way,
Speaker 5: do you have to live in Stockholm? Why not the
Speaker 5: Swedish countryside?
Speaker 1: I guess maybe?
Speaker 5: Is it nice?
Speaker 6: No? Up until this point, I swear I've only heard
Speaker 6: good things about Sweden.
Speaker 3: Oh it's so great there.
Speaker 6: I mean, the income tax is pretty high, but it's
Speaker 6: very progressive and like you can go to UNI or something.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 6: This is insane, So I do some more research and
Speaker 6: basically there's an eight year wait list for rent controlled apartments,
Speaker 6: which means that the rent is stabilized, it's not jumping
Speaker 6: up by twenty thirty percent over a couple of years.
Speaker 6: But there are only a finer amount of houses, and
Speaker 6: people aren't building new properties like that, and if they are,
Speaker 6: they're building to live in it. And who has the
Speaker 6: money to build a house from scratch. So people are
Speaker 6: literally having to sublet. And it's fine people sublet, but
Speaker 6: usually you have options, right you can say, oh, if
Speaker 6: I'm not going to the real estate my own lees,
Speaker 6: I can sublet. I can, you know, live with a
Speaker 6: friend or a family. Everybody is out there almost in
Speaker 6: the trenches. And who's telling these stories?
Speaker 4: That video was the same person having a conversation yes okay, which.
Speaker 3: I thought was fantastic. I thought the acting could.
Speaker 6: Really simulate the conversation that would happen if I were
Speaker 6: to tell a Swedish person I was planning to move there.
Speaker 3: I've definitely said that before. Oh I could move to Sweden.
Speaker 4: I love Swedish actors, Okay, I don't know a single
Speaker 4: Swedish actor Skarscard, yes, Skarsgard, oh facts, I know two
Speaker 4: of them.
Speaker 6: Then do you know one time you told me you
Speaker 6: were Swedish and I fully believed it, okay, And that
Speaker 6: was literally a week after you told me that you
Speaker 6: were English, and I was like, same.
Speaker 3: God, is the same thing. I never told you that
Speaker 3: you did? You put that on me? You were blonde
Speaker 3: shaming me?
Speaker 6: No, No, you definitely held your follicles with bleached polloicles
Speaker 6: and you said, what do you think this is?
Speaker 3: I'm Swedish. That makes sense?
Speaker 6: That makes sense, right, Okay, So there's just plain white
Speaker 6: for anyone who's no seasonings.
Speaker 3: It's strong standard.
Speaker 4: That's so interesting about the rent it's everywhere, right, because
Speaker 4: sometimes I'm like, a holy crap, it's because we live
Speaker 4: in Australia.
Speaker 2: But the render crisis is everywhere for different reasons.
Speaker 6: So I think in Sweden in particular, having a rent
Speaker 6: stabilized option should mean in theory that everybody has access
Speaker 6: to appropriately priced rent, But then the demand has gone
Speaker 6: up the supplies stayed the same.
Speaker 3: Because people like you want to move its or your fault.
Speaker 6: Maybe people like me have fantasies they will never live
Speaker 6: out with moving to Sweden.
Speaker 3: There you go, a bit of learning for you.
Speaker 4: Bit of geography, intelects and friends that I'm on that
Speaker 4: we are call me an educator with a home, a
Speaker 4: pep up and RMB, but we do other things too.
Speaker 1: Flex and fits.
Speaker 3: Not a week goes by.
Speaker 6: I'm not telling you all about how to make money,
Speaker 6: how to make money? Why does it tell like it's
Speaker 6: grammatically incorrect?
Speaker 3: How to make money?
Speaker 6: How to make money? English is so bizarre?
Speaker 3: How to make money? Anyway?
Speaker 6: So did you watch Love Island UK Season size? I
Speaker 6: think a prosing it Meghan DoD I may no, Maybe
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Does Meghan? Does that name ring a bell to you?
Speaker 3: What does she look like?
Speaker 6: If it doesn't ring a belt, it's not sea. Do
Speaker 6: your own research and your own time, babe. So Meghan
Speaker 6: Barton Hanson is an ex Love Island contestant and she's
Speaker 6: now a millionaire thanks to OnlyFans. Her latest accounts revealed
Speaker 6: that she made over one million pounds in the last
Speaker 6: financial year. Now she was one of the first UK
Speaker 6: reality stars to sign up to OnlyFans back when it
Speaker 6: I mean it's still controversial now, but back when it
Speaker 6: was far more controversial, and she charged twenty four ninety
Speaker 6: nine pounds per a month to subscribe, she was a
Speaker 6: I don't know what they call it in the UK,
Speaker 6: but just like a bikini model. She might be in
Speaker 6: the classify to a little nip shot every now and
Speaker 6: then page six model.
Speaker 3: She's paid like that, Yeah, something like that exactly.
Speaker 6: Now Here's the thing what I find extremely fascinating about
Speaker 6: Meghan is her relationship to the beauty standard. She is
Speaker 6: a self described or was a self described ugly duckling,
Speaker 6: got a ton of surgery.
Speaker 3: Is that why you didn't tell me what she looks like?
Speaker 6: No, because she's hot now, But before when she came
Speaker 6: out on Love Island, people started googling her backstory. They
Speaker 6: saw that she got in heaps of surgery to look
Speaker 6: the way she does, and I'm just happy she's capitalizing
Speaker 6: on it. But what I think is way more fascinating
Speaker 6: is how we've gone from this period of time where
Speaker 6: any kind of adult worker scene to be is i
Speaker 6: don't know, maybe demonized in some ways and now far away,
Speaker 6: far away, you know, in the private spaces in the
Speaker 6: dark alleyways, and now online creators can jump on show
Speaker 6: a bit of nip, make.
Speaker 3: A chilling and it's completely chill.
Speaker 6: I'm in two minds about the only fans type.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: On one hand, I.
Speaker 6: Think it's fantastic that women especially are able to you know,
Speaker 6: girl boss their way into a check, girl boss their
Speaker 6: way into being seven figure babes, almost like decentralized income
Speaker 6: stream when they're capitalizing and leveraging their own labor to
Speaker 6: this closed ecosystem they're inviting you in, you pay access
Speaker 6: to content. It's fantastic. It's a perfect, clean transaction. What
Speaker 6: I don't love is this illusion that because a few
Speaker 6: random reality stars make a million dollars on only fans,
Speaker 6: all these fresh eighteen, if not sixteen and seventeen year
Speaker 6: olds are kind of like, well, that's what I'm going
Speaker 6: to do now, And so suddenly they've been thrust into
Speaker 6: sex work with no real understanding of the implications of
Speaker 6: doing so.
Speaker 3: While it may seem like.
Speaker 6: A wuho feminist girl boss rhetoric, the reality is we
Speaker 6: still live in a patriarchy, and you're still going to
Speaker 6: be unjustly judged for being a sex worker, whether or
Speaker 6: not you feel like it's in powering, Like I don't
Speaker 6: think people are setting up young women in particular for
Speaker 6: the reality of this post. Only fans hype Train.
Speaker 3: And especially the ship that gets me the shit.
Speaker 6: That's so freaky? Is that bad baby? For example, cash
Speaker 6: me out aside Daniel Brogoli on the day of her
Speaker 6: eighteenth birthday made an only fan made a million dollars
Speaker 6: that day, which means a bunch of creepy people were waiting,
Speaker 6: plotting to see this child recently graduated child in the
Speaker 6: nude fire out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 4: I don't know how I feel about it, because I
Speaker 4: feel like some people would listen to this and think
Speaker 4: that that's not giving women enough, not free will like the.
Speaker 3: Women robots free range.
Speaker 4: Yes, but some would argue that no matter what age
Speaker 4: you are, like from eighteen onwards, you can make your decisions.
Speaker 6: But it's not about women, Like this is so far
Speaker 6: like from women, about the society we live in currently,
Speaker 6: women are always going to be penalized for taking strides
Speaker 6: towards autonomy, right, Like I think that when you see
Speaker 6: these headlines, it makes it seem like, we live in
Speaker 6: a society where it's completely chill and comfy for women
Speaker 6: to sell themselves in this public arena with no consequences,
Speaker 6: and that is just not the reality.
Speaker 3: Do you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 6: Like for the average Joe Blow, no, what's the equivalent
Speaker 6: of Joe Blow.
Speaker 2: But for Shane Doe, Jane Doe, Like.
Speaker 6: That's literally what it is for the average Jane Doe.
Speaker 6: Just this random girl in BONDI who's like, I saw
Speaker 6: Megan Suten OnlyFans. I'm going to start an only fans.
Speaker 6: You do not have the network, you don't have the reach,
Speaker 6: you don't have the ability to socially market yourself in
Speaker 6: a way that is going to make you enough money
Speaker 6: to justify the consequences of how that's going to be
Speaker 6: seen by.
Speaker 3: People around you.
Speaker 6: Like, I just feel like sometimes the Internet in particular
Speaker 6: likes to give people the illusion of far more progression
Speaker 6: than we actually have. Parody right now in twenty twenty two,
Speaker 6: Australia is equal to what it was in the fifties.
Speaker 3: That's how much we have not progressed.
Speaker 6: Wait as in pay parity, as in parody. Generally, taking
Speaker 6: all the different elements of gender roles, pay, social norms,
Speaker 6: all that stuff we've like, did it progressed a little
Speaker 6: bit and then we dropped back down. So I was
Speaker 6: at this Christmas party was talking to this woman and
Speaker 6: she was like.
Speaker 3: Sixty years old or something. It will take maybe fifty,
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 6: And she was talking about how she was taking out
Speaker 6: she was signing on to be a guaranteur because she
Speaker 6: was taking it alone on behalf of her son. Rich people, right,
Speaker 6: she is the breadwinner, multi millionaire, got coined coming out
Speaker 6: her ass. Then you have her husban. He's also rich,
Speaker 6: but not as rich as she is. So anyway, she's
Speaker 6: signing on for this loan. The bank calls her and says, yeah, hey,
Speaker 6: we just need your husband to sign on for this
Speaker 6: loan so you can be the guarantee for your kid.
Speaker 6: She's like, for what reason, Like he's got nothing to
Speaker 6: do with this. This is a gift from me to
Speaker 6: my son. And they're like, it's just in the books.
Speaker 6: We just need all married women need a husband to
Speaker 6: sign on. This is twenty twenty, really twenty twenty, and
Speaker 6: so she's like, my husband's retired, he does not make
Speaker 6: an income, so what would he be signing on for
Speaker 6: They're like, we understand, it's not about his income, it's
Speaker 6: just the rules. And so you think, what kind of
Speaker 6: world are we living in when a multi millionaire woman
Speaker 6: has to get her retireing no income husband to sign
Speaker 6: on as a guaranteel for optics.
Speaker 3: I started to believe that, know what, back it is,
Speaker 3: let's dox them.
Speaker 6: We can't dox them, not we can do them. No,
Speaker 6: But I just thought that was fascinating. And I think
Speaker 6: that when you're in these little echo chambers having these
Speaker 6: progressive discussions being like oh no, like everything's equal and
Speaker 6: like there's room for everyone and do what you want,
Speaker 6: Like great, yeah, in this imaginary land that you've made
Speaker 6: for yourself, But it's not setting people up for the
Speaker 6: reality of what it's going to be like when you
Speaker 6: orbit through spaces where the priority is not virtue signaling,
Speaker 6: it's not optics, it's not FAU progression over the reality.
Speaker 1: You've been listening to the Flex and Rooms catch up podcasts.
