I 0:00:05.160 --> 0:00:06.240 hope you're in a good mood. 0:00:06.480 --> 0:00:07.040 I hope. 0:00:10.000 --> 0:00:12.879 Literally get the strap on, because we're going to be 0:00:12.880 --> 0:00:17.239 talking about climate change. Don't leave, Do not leave because 0:00:18.239 --> 0:00:19.720 we have opinions. 0:00:20.160 --> 0:00:22.120 I have been told plenty of time that I can 0:00:22.160 --> 0:00:25.279 make historically boring things sound interesting, and I think that 0:00:25.400 --> 0:00:29.880 is true. This was a very interesting layer discussion about 0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:32.680 all the issues. Not with climate change is a concept, 0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:36.040 a concept. We can agree that it's climate change a conspiracy. No, 0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:41.680 just with the conversation around it, hyperindividualized versus community efforts 0:00:41.720 --> 0:00:44.239 about you know, making the world a better place? Are 0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:46.560 we too far gone?

What's the other side, the bottom of 0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:23.679 the ocean? 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:25.160 Maybe? 0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:30.240 Look, we just can't delve into every possible concept and 0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:32.319 theory and idea And most importantly for. 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.280 Me, I don't like answers.

I want to not die in three years. 0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:39.600 That's my reason for living. 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:42.080 Yeah, but if you really wanted to not die in 0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:43.640 three years, you'd be joining my. 0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:47.880 I can't get into this.

I'm a female twenty three. 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:43.760 Okay, too many details. 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:51.960 Gey three year old Amy, let's go two year old Amy. 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:55.240 She has been dating her boyfriend for three point five years. 0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:55.799 Her words. 0:02:57.360 --> 0:02:59.799 At the start of the relationship, we both liked each other, 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.520 weren't head over heels for one another, due to which 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:07.000 we made our relationship somewhat open. The relationship at the 0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:10.399 time wasn't serious, and honestly, we both thought it wouldn't last, 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:13.519 but would give it a shot. One rule we decided 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:16.000 on was that if we slept with somebody else, that 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:18.840 the other partner would get a free pass to sleep 0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:22.160 around that amount of time. We made this rule so 0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:24.040 that we could try our best to see if this 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:27.079 relationship works or not. In a few months, I developed 0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:31.680 major feelings for him, as one does, and the same. 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:32.120 Goes for him. 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:36.000 We never officially killed the rule. Today, at dinner time, 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.640 I jokingly told my boyfriend how dumb we were at 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.560 the start of the relationship to make such a stupid rule. 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:46.800 I saw him going from normal to extremely frazzled. Within seconds. 0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:49.160 He told me that he thought we were still in 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:56.520 an open relationship and that I had sixteen free pass 0:03:57.080 --> 0:03:59.800 According to him, he did nothing wrong since we didn't 0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:01.040 just otherwise. 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:04.600 Have been racking them up to you for us. 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:09.240 Literally, I think he cheated since we were in a 0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:11.680 committed relationship a few months in. I feel sick to 0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:14.080 my stomach right now thinking of what he has done. 0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:16.760 He's saying that he loves me and wants his relationship 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:19.320 to work, and that I can use my passes and 0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:23.280 then we can close the relationship back up. I don't know. 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:25.520 I don't want to sleep with Randow's, but I also 0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:28.400 want this relationship. But I'm also disgusted by my boot friend. 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:33.400 What should I do? Doesn't count as cheating? I love Amy, Yeah, 0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:35.760 I'm gross out. What a feral beast, but also I 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:36.440 love him. 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:39.000 That's my man. I'm a stick beside him. 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:41.720 She wants to know is this cheating? 0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.279 And am I okay to be disgusted because she's in 0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:46.720 a position. 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:47.719 We've all been there. 0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:53.440 She doesn't believe me. No, no, no, no. If you've been there, 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:53.880 say so. 0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:57.280 I haven't actually been there either. I'm just trying to relate. 0:04:57.520 --> 0:04:58.240 Okay, got it. 0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:00.919 Some people have been there where they find out that 0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:04.480 a partner's cheating. They are disgusted in them, absolutely foul, 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:06.680 but they still love them, and it puts you really 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:08.440 between a rock and a hard place. 0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:10.839 So do you think was he cheating? 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.320 No, it's miscommunication. 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:18.080 This is a pretty diabolical miscommunication. 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.680 What were you talking about for three and a half years, 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:23.440 we just didn't bring it back up, like things just 0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:28.080 don't peter out. I mean, you entered the relationship with 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:30.080 a very specific dynamic, right. 0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:32.040 I feel like that would have been a couple of chats. 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:34.000 Being like, let's just be open ish, and then you 0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:37.080 were just you continued being open with an extra layer 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:42.800 of intimacy that maybe made Amy think that they were monogamous, 0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:44.120 which makes a lot of sense. 0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:46.160 Is it cheating? 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:48.000 I don't think so. 0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:51.800 But it all goes back to if she feels it's cheating, 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:54.240 it's cheating. But I'm sure he could justify his way 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:56.159 out of it to be like no, no, no no, because 0:05:56.200 --> 0:05:59.800 you said we were open. So if you if we're changed, 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:03.440 didn't you tell me? I feel like, right now she 0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:05.520 just gotta have a conversation about like, so can we 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:07.880 be close? Like do you want to just be with 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:12.240 just me? But also I think for me personally, I'm 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:13.880 trying to imagine what I would do. I don't know 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:17.280 if I could come back from that. It's not just 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:21.080 the cheating, it's being on completely different pages. She's like 0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:24.479 here being like me and my number one monogamous man 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:29.039 and laying is just us together, And he's like, that's 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:29.880 my amy. 0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:31.280 We date. 0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:38.760 But I'm dating Jesse and Becky and Shela and I 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:39.279 love them. 0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:45.279 That's hectic. I would just have too many questions and answers. 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:46.560 I don't want the answers. 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:51.440 To I just say, dump him because if there was 0:06:51.480 --> 0:06:57.200 nothing like the whole reason why open relationships exist is 0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:00.120 for that reason. They are open, open channels of communication, 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:02.440 open channels of routing. 0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:05.599 But they're twenty What do you mean they were twenty when. 0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:08.800 They had this chat, twenty three, they're twenty three now 0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:11.360 dating for three and a half years. I don't think 0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:14.040 you should be able to use your age as an excuse. 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:16.400 I think she got a dump in. 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:19.160 This is flex and frooms on Kita. 0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:22.120 I do not trust people who get on the internet, 0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:25.000 especially TikTok and have all these pipe dreams about how 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.760 to make money. Like people's one purpose is like, hey, 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.320 did you guys know that if you do this you 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:33.480 can make money? What is your end game? I don't 0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:36.320 trust it anyway? So do you know did you ever 0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:38.120 watch teen Mums when you're in high school? 0:07:38.240 --> 0:07:41.880 Yes? Farah Adams Abrams Abrams but close. 0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:46.040 So she was the ogten mum and that would have 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:49.840 been almost fifteen years ago, if not maybe about ten. 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:52.640 And she's been doing a lot of work to keep 0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:57.560 herself relevant. She is pretty much always in the tabloid's 0:07:57.560 --> 0:08:00.920 the press for doing something inane. But this she might 0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:03.840 have taken a bit too fast. So she uploaded a 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:07.360 story or a TikTok or something video esque to social 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:11.040 media where she's sitting, she's standing in the bathroom and 0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:16.280 she is alluding to essentially jarring up a vial of 0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:20.280 her thesis to sell online. And so people were like, Okay, 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:22.600 this is a bit fun, and she was just like, 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:24.840 you know what, in social media, you have to do 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:28.040 what you need to do to like stay irrelevant, and 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:31.440 you know, starting conversations is really important, and blah blah 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:33.840 blah blah, Like you don't know what market I have 0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:36.040 for this, don't judge me. And it was like a 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:38.960 one minute video clip of her being like, so she's 0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:41.319 kind of like turning her bum towards the camera, wearing 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:44.160 pants obviously, and just kind of gesturing to putting a 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:46.439 vial behind her and like sitting on it and being 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.320 like afterwards, I'm gonna, you know, put the lid on, 0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:50.920 and I'm gonna sell it and. 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:52.800 Whatever turns out. 0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:57.000 Though it was all elaborate ruse because her and her 0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:59.200 daughter have come out. 0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:01.600 With pooh slime. 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:08.440 Oh genius, that's great. I think that's genius. So it's 0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:10.600 I can show you here. It looks like it's kind 0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:14.600 of like in a maple syrup type of bottle that's 0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:18.080 like bubbly like the poop emoji, and it says poop 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:21.640 by Sarah Abram poopy slime. I don't know what it's 0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:24.120 meant to smell like. I don't know what it's meant 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:27.320 to be like. I don't know how well it squirts. 0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:29.800 I just know that it's a brown colored slime. I 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:31.280 don't know if she'll make any money from it. People 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:34.640 love slime. They're a slime millionaires, So I have no 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:36.719 doubt that there's some kind of market for it, and 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:41.040 she's probably peddling it to her daughter's fan base as well. 0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:42.040 Genius has a daughter. 0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:42.840 Howld's her daughter? 0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:47.600 She looks like a ten, she looks like a child. 0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:50.760 But it's getting a bit of a cut. Come on, now, 0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:55.040 well that's slime slime chat. 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:58.320 But again, there seems to be a very distinct theme 0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:02.120 with all the ways I'm finding that you can become 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:04.800 a millionaire in twenty twenty two. And I don't know 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:07.160 if it's like the bar to mine half effect where 0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:10.600 because I've opened the floodgates with making money through selling 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:14.120 your bodily fluids. Now they just find me because we've 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:16.200 done tears, tears. 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:20.920 Far bath water. Pooh, what's next? 0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:21.840 What is next? 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:24.959 I don't want to talk about it on air. Ooh, 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:26.079 it's something else. 0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:31.960 So the market is fair and wide, and I just 0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:34.200 think that if you're trying to sell T. 0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:37.320 Shirts in twenty twenty two, you need to start good. 0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:39.160 Luck to try harder. 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:42.720 You're listening to Flex and Frooms on Cada. 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:47.120 Okay, so me flex part time conspiracy theorists, but not 0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:49.920 in the tinfoil hat way. In the I just like 0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:53.840 talking about concepts I don't really care to believe them 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:57.240 the whole way, Like I'm not joining any conspiracy theorist 0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:59.520 groups or doing rallies or like trying to make things 0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:03.760 make sense. But one that I don't talk about enough 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:09.480 is predictive programming. You across it not okay. So it's 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:12.719 a theory that claims that the government or like the 0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:19.160 elites are using fictional movies or fictional books as a 0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:23.280 mass mind control tool to kind of plant ideas about 0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:26.000 the future, so when it happens, they're really used to it. 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:29.880 So you might have noticed around twenty twelve there was 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.679 that conspiracy theory that the mind calendars of the world 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:35.800 was going to end, and there were all these apocalypse movies. 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:39.920 There was contagion that prepared everyone for this idea of 0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:41.839 a mass pandemic. 0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:42.160 But still we didn't learn. 0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:45.040 Yeah, so we were like, what was that one thing 0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:45.480 they said? 0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:47.600 The masks. 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:52.000 Anyway, you'll also notice that when movies do get released, 0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:55.120 or when popular when books become popular, there are certain 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:58.280 themes just keep cropping up. Like you know, we had 0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:01.240 a couple of years ago bird by a quiet place, 0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:03.080 these monsters that hunted with sound. 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:03.640 What is that about? 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:05.520 You just all have these ideas at the same time. 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:11.000 Come on, now, come on now. Did you watch on 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:13.719 Netflix this movie called Don't Look Up And it was 0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:17.760 all over the homepage had Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer you'r Save 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:23.800 Jennifer Lawrence, Timothy Shallow May. Don't Look Up is about 0:12:23.840 --> 0:12:28.839 these two like average Joe, low level astronomers who realize 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:32.080 that there's this huge comet that's going to approach the 0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:34.960 like it's approaching Earth and it's going to destroy things, 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:40.600 like cataclysmic event, the world is going to end, apocalyptic vibes, 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:43.079 and so they start freaking out, like we got to 0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:45.480 go tell someone. 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:47.840 And so the whole movie is about them first. 0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:50.200 Going to the president to be like, hey, there's a 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.000 media coming, and they're like, okay. 0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:55.520 Shush, that's like very bad vibes. Don't say that kind 0:12:55.520 --> 0:12:57.079 of like not really good. It's not really a good 0:12:57.080 --> 0:12:57.720 time for that. 0:12:57.840 --> 0:13:00.440 And so they go on this like media tour trying 0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:03.120 to get people to listen to them, and what ends 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:06.000 up happening is that every time they're on a talk 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:09.720 show or speaking about what's going on, people think they 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:15.520 are just this lunatic, like hysterical bunch of people who 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:19.440 are trying to fear monger and nobody listens and plot twists, 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:21.160 the media hits and everybody dies. 0:13:21.360 --> 0:13:21.520 Yeah. 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:23.480 So if you actually miss that part of the film, 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:25.320 so people, everybody dies in the end. 0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:28.200 Yeah, so everybody watches that, we're like, well, that's really sad. 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:29.079 Let's turn that off. 0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:29.800 Let's not do that. 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:31.880 But I don't know if you've noticed, but for the 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:35.280 past I don't know, six months or so, so many 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:37.720 climate change activists have been. 0:13:37.520 --> 0:13:40.439 Doing really hectic things to. 0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:44.200 Try and get our attention about like the current state 0:13:44.240 --> 0:13:44.800 of the world. 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:46.520 You had the people. 0:13:46.280 --> 0:13:50.000 Who recently in April parked their truck on the Harbor 0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:52.880 Bridge to block traffic, because once you block traffic, it's 0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:56.800 all over the news to talk about like the climate emergency. 0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:58.360 I missed that, you see. 0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:02.040 Then recently the French Open there was this woman who 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.560 tied herself to the nets, like the poles of the nets, 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:08.439 wearing a shirt that said, we have onenty twenty eight 0:14:08.520 --> 0:14:11.520 days left and we need to do something drastically. 0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:12.680 Now. 0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:16.360 I don't want to fear manger, Okay, I'm also just 0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:20.120 here for laughs and gags. However, I do think it's 0:14:20.160 --> 0:14:23.479 my civic duty amplify this message that they'll. 0:14:23.200 --> 0:14:23.920 Wear out is. 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:29.600 No, but it's actually quite spooky. The exact format of 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:33.400 the movie is what's happening right now and has been 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:36.040 happening since, and people are not paying attention. 0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:37.200 You know what. 0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:43.360 I watched that movie and it wasn't fear mongering at all, 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:44.960 because that's literally what's happening. 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:46.360 But I think that's the point. 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.560 I think it comes across as fear mongering because people 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:52.760 will then say, well, for years like Nostra Dharma said 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:54.520 the world was going to end and it didn't, and 0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:56.400 so and so said the world was going to end 0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:59.600 and it didn't, and well had no climate change is real? 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:02.560 Like this is just what happened. We've never been alive 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:05.880 in this time before. Maybe this is always what it 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.000 was going to be like in twenty twenty two, and 0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:11.160 we're just freaking each other out for some mass agenda 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:13.320 that nobody knows about or is sure about. What the 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:14.680 elites and like the. 0:15:15.400 --> 0:15:16.320 What would they get out of that? 0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:16.640 Though? 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.240 I'm not sure and I don't doubt you know, there 0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:21.200 are tons of cooked things that are happening, and I 0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:23.160 don't think that we operate in the right circles to 0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:25.600 understand the benefit of any of these things that happen. 0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:28.240 I'm not sure these conversations are meant to have like 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:31.240 a very clear cause and effect. 0:15:31.720 --> 0:15:35.680 I literally think that Australians now, especially considering how many 0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:38.920 people voted for the Greens, are taking it seriously and 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:41.960 I think it's really important to understand. There has been 0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:46.360 conversations about climate change since the year two thousand in 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:47.520 terms of in pop culture. 0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.640 Yeah, weren't we in primary school They're like, we're in 0:15:50.680 --> 0:15:54.359 a drought before that water this time of the year. 0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:56.880 We had Finding Nemo, which was all about the pollution 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.040 in the ocean, Like that's the year two thousand, So 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:01.280 you and I've grown up that we've grown up with 0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:04.840 plastic in the ocean, like picking up plastic off the beach. 0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:09.080 The drought, then the rains, the fires sounds like the 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:11.120 Book of Revelation, it does. 0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:16.360 I think that we have always been too far gone 0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:19.920 for the amount of self sacrifice everybody would need to 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:23.120 do for things to change. I have no doubt the 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:25.680 big dogs and the six richest corporations in the world 0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:27.920 were like, Okay, we totally get it, but if we 0:16:28.120 --> 0:16:31.480 make these adjustments that we don't have money, do you 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:34.160 see the issue? And so they're probably like, okay, well 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:36.680 let's say we take the brunt, right, because I'm sure 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:41.200 the six largest corporations are like personalizing it. Well, fine, 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:43.760 we'll take the brunt. But then if we have to 0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:45.920 take the brunt, what about everybody else? Who else is 0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:48.880 pulling the weight? If we only have a finite amount 0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:51.640 of time left, I want to enjoy, you really think? 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:52.520 That's what I think. 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:56.480 So the way that people justify the habits that they 0:16:56.520 --> 0:17:00.440 have that contribute to the climate emergency, they like compare 0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:04.919 and contrast, Well, I don't shop fast fashion, so like 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:07.880 it's fine that I drive my car five minutes down 0:17:07.920 --> 0:17:09.760 the road, and it's fine that I use Uber eight 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:11.959 to every meal, and it's fine that I still use 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:14.520 straws because I don't do this one thing. And that's 0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:17.879 just on an individual level. You have almost eight billion 0:17:18.040 --> 0:17:24.720 individuals making these micro justifications for behavior. I'm sure the 0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:28.880 individuals that run corporations can do the same thing and say, well, hey, 0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:33.560 like wherever, he're doing this one thing, but them over there, they're. 0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:34.520 Fucking up the oceans. 0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:36.560 All right, We're just fucking up the sky. 0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:39.560 You know what I'm saying or like we're just sucking 0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:43.960 up one continent, they're fucking up seven. Yeah, you know, 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:47.199 So you make these adjustments, and then I think the 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:52.520 fundamental issue is as much as everybody accepts responsibility, I 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:55.240 don't think anybody wants to take accountability for it. So 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:58.280 they're all like, it is my fault, but like me 0:17:58.560 --> 0:18:04.760 personally anything about it. And I remember reading this one 0:18:05.760 --> 0:18:11.560 theory or justification that was like this US human race 0:18:11.680 --> 0:18:13.959 has to end at some point, just like we had 0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:15.920 the I say, it's just like we had all those 0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:17.680 other ages where shit existed. 0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:18.000 And now it doesn't. 0:18:18.320 --> 0:18:20.680 Our time is bound to come right. 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:23.280 So people kind of have this thought of like maybe 0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:25.520 we're just rushing ourselves there a little bit. Maybe we're 0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:29.159 just like not taking a chill road. We're like foot 0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:32.879 on the gas cranking it into oblivion. But it's going 0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:34.960 to happen anyway, So what. 0:18:34.880 --> 0:18:35.560 Is there to do? 0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:39.560 Overpopulation is obviously the thing that's driving it. I think 0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:41.520 we can all agree on that. Because the more people do. 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:43.680 More things like. 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:50.119 What's it called goodness of living, standard quality of life 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:53.560 growing more, that means more food, more this moor that. 0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:56.080 So yeah, maybe maybe I hadn't thought about it that way, 0:18:56.119 --> 0:18:59.840 that we're going to be cranking into oblivion regardless. Yes, however, 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:03.320 I would be cautious sharing that because I think that's 0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:07.840 the kind of rhetoric that people who've denied climate change use. 0:19:08.080 --> 0:19:11.639 Flex and frooms people are always saying, like, don't pop 0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:13.080 pimples because they'll scar. 0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:14.040 We get that. 0:19:14.040 --> 0:19:15.040 What's wrong with scars? 0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:19.920 Right? That batt'll loan It shows you've been through something. 0:19:20.040 --> 0:19:24.080 But apparently there is a section on your face that 0:19:24.200 --> 0:19:27.760 if you pop pimples and they get infected, it can 0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:28.800 become lethal. 0:19:29.160 --> 0:19:30.080 As in, you could. 0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:34.920 Listen to this, okay, So she's referring to this part 0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:37.320 of your face called the triangle of death or the 0:19:37.359 --> 0:19:39.720 death triangle, and we give it that name because if 0:19:39.760 --> 0:19:42.320 you have a skin infection here, it can spread pretty 0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:45.639 quickly to your brain and cause some really bad symptoms, 0:19:45.680 --> 0:19:48.000
