It's it's it's so limiting to call someone, you know, a a label like that just to apply a label to someone who who is multi pronged, multifaceted diamond, the aura on this energetic being is just even hard to describe right now. There there really are no words. Maybe we just put it to music, and then we feel the music, but we're not limited by the music.
[00:04:15] Unknown:

stupid. Like Well
[00:05:10] Unknown:
a shocking level of stupid.
[00:05:14] Unknown:
You know? No. That's ghetto. I I think it has to do with the the ear the earbuds. If you're not having earbuds in your ear, then you can't hear what's being said to you. That that noise has to travel so far across the room to reach your eardrums. It's just difficult to hear people unless they're right in your ears.
[00:05:34] Unknown:
Like, I I would almost say she's retarded. Like, she's got a she is mentally handicapped. I you if you gave her an IQ test or some such thing, I I've got to imagine that functionally, she is actually handicapped.
[00:05:53] Unknown:
We can look into the ACT test later if you'd like. Making changes to that ACT test, and it's not quite the same as the SAT test, college entrance exams.
[00:06:07] Unknown:
Is it c the CAP test for Kappin? So the That's Kappin.
[00:06:12] Unknown:

[00:06:35] Unknown:
Music? Just rewind the tape. Turn What is this? What what is this? I I I don't I make music. I don't even know what you're talking about.
[00:06:55] Unknown:
What you're about to hear is music.

Spider. Spider. Spider. Spider. Spider.
[00:16:40] Unknown:
And now for our feature presentation. 262. 262. Commend 262. What's the title of 262?
[00:16:59] Unknown:
262 m, authentic, hashtag Auramaxing, everlasting, esoteric, esoteric, and Meowgicians. Meowgicians. Meowgicians.
[00:17:24] Unknown:
Everything every single thing is racist. But there's a way there's a way to or max.
[00:17:42] Unknown:
Who? Or maxing? What's or maxing?
[00:17:46] Unknown:
It's not new, so let me feel that way. Oramaxing. Well, what is an aura?
[00:17:59] Unknown:
Everybody says I have an old soul. You
[00:18:07] Unknown:
should get new Intersection between spiritual manifestation, video game slash anime logic, and good old fashioned Riz. In these videos, you'll see people ironically talking about their aura or that of others, often relating the amount of points they have to a strong or weak effect. It's kind of like when you watch an anime and one of the characters says something about hiding their true mana only to reveal it at the last second for the bad guy and catch them off guard. The points aspect is where the video gamification comes in, as if real life people could have their auras weakened or deducted and quantifiably measured by the actions they take. Naturally, this layer harkens back to those boss versus crook mobile video game ads that blew up in meme culture in 2019 but have continued to slowly simmer away as the ads only proliferate, manifesting as the aura memes of 2024.
[00:18:53] Unknown:
Are you still with me here? Gonna talk of anime and social situations and video notifications.
[00:19:04] Unknown:
Yes. I learned that from Benningham.
[00:19:08] Unknown:
It is possible. It is possible.
[00:19:15] Unknown:
So what's the the crook?
[00:19:18] Unknown:
Well, I think this is how you connect with single women is by oramaxing.
[00:19:23] Unknown:
Oh, yeah.
[00:19:25] Unknown:
Makes sense. The guy that was gonna assault him or whatever he was gonna do or touch his pee pee hole or something. That guy was a crook level 1. And then he used his his stinky vagina to to chase the crook off is what I got out of that.
[00:19:45] Unknown:
Sure. I think, or maxing may be old now and might be not as fresh anymore since the guardian wrote an article about it.
[00:19:54] Unknown:
He needs to douche. Mhmm. And then people won't run away from that.
[00:20:00] Unknown:
Just the crooks, the level one crooks. Yeah. So how do they measure their aura?
[00:20:10] Unknown:
Well, let's rewind and go back to the beginning, reading from this article, talking about
[00:20:16] Unknown:
Do you feel uncharismatic and awkward in social situations?
[00:20:22] Unknown:
There's a lot of lot of meditation and and breathing and getting sunshine and staying healthy and getting the sleep. It's like they have to market healthy living in some way to make it appealing to young people.
[00:20:36] Unknown:
I feel like he's gonna sunbathe his gooch.
[00:20:40] Unknown:
Name, aura maxing. Age, the word aura comes from Latin and ancient Greek and originally meant a gentle breeze. Oramaxing, it's new. It's like looks maxing only. Pardon me? Well, wait. What's looks maxing? That's maximizing your physical attractiveness by working out, say or mewing, and it's like meowing. Meowing is pushing your tongue up in your mouth to improve your jaw and facial structure.
[00:21:11] Unknown:
Listen. Fukiana don't want nothing to do with meowing and meow jaykins and shit. So here we learn that this is a TikTok show. I didn't know that was her name till rule put it in there, and I agree she is a terrible representation of a human being in any way, shape, or form. I wouldn't want her representing me.
[00:21:34] Unknown:
So you can turn to TikTok to ask 18 year old content creators to share their aura upgrades with you. Something about not yapping or talking too much to find your purpose, And then scoring, this is the the difficult thing to understand. Somehow other people score other people or rate them, and you can lose points probably for cringe, but you can gain points or something. But it's racist, and it's misogynistic, and it's sexist, and it's a terrible thing. So probably don't credit system. It's a yeah. I it seems that way.
[00:22:22] Unknown:
It's there could be a way to bully or greet somebody. Have super aura, and if you're if you're anything that's not a cock douchebag, then you get, like, bad aura or something. I I don't know. Right. This is
[00:22:38] Unknown:
points. By Betsy Reed so we can, you know, ask what her aura her aura is on full display here.
[00:22:48] Unknown:
Oh, jeez. Poor lady. She basically has no aura. Mhmm.
[00:22:57] Unknown:
Nope. Not not for writing for the Guardian. Journalists, man. Journalists.
[00:23:04] Unknown:
Journalists. That's not a horror. That stink lines.
[00:23:11] Unknown:
Yellow journalism.
[00:23:15] Unknown:
Why are you attacking the books? Hey. The books won't burn themselves. To you?
[00:23:24] Unknown:
So I saw barking was a term, no barking, and then no yapping.
[00:23:30] Unknown:
No barking, no yapping. Don't be annoying.
[00:23:33] Unknown:
There was mewing too. Cool.
[00:23:36] Unknown:
Is that Yeah. Those are dogs. Like cats, but not dogs. Barking milk. Right? Be a bit of a mystery. Yeah. Yep.
[00:23:45] Unknown:
Certainly. So there's some sort of social credit score involved with rating other people just to determine if they have they have it or not, apparently.
[00:24:03] Unknown:
Yeah. There there you gotta wonder what douchebag came up with this to try and prep kids for the social credit score system. I've already been doing this. The douchier I am, the more points I get.
[00:24:18] Unknown:
It's all part of the agenda.
[00:24:19] Unknown:
Do we wanna see his YouTube? Sure. He he says he's got a have to bring it up here. So imagine you're on TikTok. A journalist wants to talk with you, and then you get all this attention. I don't know if he answers the looks maxing questions. This is Frankie. He's this is his first full length video to YouTube. He got real popular on TikTok, and now he's here to show off his cologne collection.
[00:25:03] Unknown:
No audio.
[00:25:05] Unknown:
Right. Because we're just determining his aura at this point because he's doing a lot of yapping.
[00:25:13] Unknown:
He is yapping a lot. Could even be barking. He might be barking. Glad it's muted.
[00:25:19] Unknown:
Here's the other thing that I'm reminded of. Airlines, men have been accused of raw dogging law or long flights, and that's misogynistic. And airlines have been closed down. I I I seen that. Have you raw dogged a long flight lately?
[00:25:40] Unknown:
I do not fly. I was going to, though, I would most likely raw dog it. That's pretty much.
[00:25:49] Unknown:
You didn't bring a Game Boy with you? No. You didn't bring a crossword puzzle?
[00:25:55] Unknown:
And when did when did just sitting there become raw dogging? I thought raw dogging was when you had sex without a condom.
[00:26:06] Unknown:
You got my You're so terrible to be without your phone. I think that's a high mile club thing. Period of time. You're on a plane and you're raw dogging.
[00:26:15] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. The the mile hike club.
[00:26:21] Unknown:
Yes. Which leads us to our next topic.
[00:26:25] Unknown:
And I and I don't know that that's, I I don't know that that's necessarily it has to be a masculine thing, but what I do think it is is and with the amount of visitors I get out to our place, you start noticing these things real quick. Most people, they can't be alone in their own thoughts for fucking more than, like, 2 minutes. Like, you give them you give them 2 hours. They start losing their shit. They need to play music. They need to watch TV. They need some noise going on. The the the quiet inside their head, people can't handle that shit.
[00:27:06] Unknown:
Yeah. It is shocking. If you're not in there and then all of a sudden thrust into your own head Yeah. Could be traumatizing.
[00:27:16] Unknown:
Yeah. And then these p so, you know, these people have no understanding of anything, about themselves because they can't handle 2 minutes with themselves. You're like, wow. You don't like yourself at all. So to me, that's more of a symptom of today's society than it is being all, like, masculine.
[00:27:42] Unknown:
So the best way to escape your sides is to launch yourself into the stratosphere. We've got some high altitude balloons to talk about. It's a lot of money in this environment. Start up companies building A $100,000,000
[00:28:02] Unknown:
for a fucking balloon.
[00:28:05] Unknown:
That thing must be huge.
[00:28:08] Unknown:
So CNBC talked to 3 different companies. 3 startups. 1 based out of France called Zafalto, a Florida based one called Space Perspective, and something out of Arizona called WorldView with the aim of hoisting tourists to the stratosphere using pressurized capsules and massive gas filled balloons to take them as high as they can go. There's a lot of money in it. That would be fun. Tell you what.
[00:28:38] Unknown:
You're pretty amazing.
[00:28:41] Unknown:
It seems so retro,
[00:28:43] Unknown:
you know, like 18 fifties.
[00:28:48] Unknown:
So you were there to Luke
[00:28:50] Unknown:
Picard.
[00:28:52] Unknown:
Captain of enterprise?
[00:28:54] Unknown:
No. The for the first one. The guy that did the highest stratosphere balloon flight, the first.
[00:29:00] Unknown:
I don't know if the red The Red Bull guy? No. It was a in a rocket.
[00:29:08] Unknown:
The Red Bull guy. Think he was in a rocket.
[00:29:15] Unknown:
This is much more fuel efficient.
[00:29:18] Unknown:
See seems seems dumb to me. I can't, I can't imagine it being a good idea to just be fucking attached to a balloon that's going up into the upper atmosphere.
[00:29:32] Unknown:
Like I don't know how they land. Let's let's hear them in their own words.
[00:29:37] Unknown:
Space of Neptune is going up to a 100000 feet, approximately 20 miles above the Earth, where you can see that curvature of the Earth. You'll be able to see roughly 450 miles in every direction.
[00:29:50] Unknown:
In Europe, France based Safalto has raised around $21,700,000 since the company's founding in 2016.
[00:29:58] Unknown:
We'll show the overview effect, the very fact to see the Earth from above, from the darkness of space, to see the curvature of the Earth in this blue halo, and it's something very moving.
[00:30:10] Unknown:
Recent polls show that only 35% of Americans say they would be interested in traveling on a private spacecraft to orbit Earth. For the remaining 65% of people, there could be another option, traveling to the stratosphere. To learn more about this emerging market, CNBC spoke to 3 companies about their vision and progress towards making stratospheric balloon tourism a reality.
[00:30:32] Unknown:
So there's an opportunity to invest money in space balloonary. Rockets aren't fuel efficient. Not everyone can be an astronaut. The big spenders can ride balloons to space.
[00:30:49] Unknown:
Just like August Picard, that's his name. He was, 1962. Oh, he lived from 18/84 to 19 62. The, the Swiss physicist and inventor and explorer known for his record breaking hydrogen balloon flights, which he studied the Earth's upper atmosphere and became the first person to enter the stratosphere. He's also known for his invention of the first bath escape, a freediving self propelled deep sea submersible. It's like a submarine, and he did dives to the bottom of the ocean, but yeah, he wanted the stratosphere first in a pressurized tank.
[00:31:40] Unknown:
Pretty amazing. They'll show us a map, a diagram of elevation at some point.
[00:31:54] Unknown:
Commercial space flight is becoming more and more common with companies including SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Virgin Galactic, all having flown paying customers into space over the last several years. But unlike SpaceX Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic, these stratospheric balloon companies will not take passengers all the way into space. The start of which is generally accepted by the US government to be around 80 kilometers or around 50 miles above the Earth's surface. Instead, most of these balloons will reach heights of about 15 to 19 miles above the Earth's surface, flying in an area known as the stratosphere.
For reference, this is still nearly 3 times higher than the altitude at which most commercial flights travel. We asked the companies about this detail. There There are people that argue that world views marketing as a space experience is sort of misleading. What do you say to those those people?
[00:32:43] Unknown:
Well, our experience is around viewing our earth and experiencing the darkness of space.
[00:32:49] Unknown:
It's, let's rate his aura right now before we get on here. This guy from Worldview. He's a clean-cut looking guy. Got some black rimmed glasses.
[00:33:01] Unknown:
4. 4? 4? Like, 4 a 4 a 4? What's the scale that you measure auras on? On?
[00:33:13] Unknown:
Well, I think you can deduct points at any time.
[00:33:16] Unknown:
From 35,000 feet, the horizon, which is about 230 knot is the horizon is about 230 nautical miles away. So 230 nautical miles is the radius of a small circle of the Earth's surface that you can see. To see the actual curvature, which is vastly greater than this circle, you would have to be able to see the entire Earth. Actual Earth disc circumference is about 2 21,600 nautical miles. The Earth's surface disc visible from 350, nautical let's see. Is about 1446 nautical miles. To claim that you can see the curvature of the earth from low altitude, like a 100000 feet or so, is like putting your eye a couple of 1,000th of an inch from a large beach ball and believing that you can see its curvature.
The math is about the same. What looks curved is that the horizon is about 230 nautical miles away at your 12 o'clock, which is about 230, but is also about 230 nautical miles away at your 11. And your 1 and your 10 and your 2 and your 9 and your 3 and so on. If you can see all the way around as in the basket of a balloon, the effect sort of goes away and you get and you again get to see or you again get the sense that you were just hanging above a big possibly curved surface. The line of the horizon curves all the way around you. So hanging above a circle, it will look curved. Again, to see the true curvature, you'd have to be able to see the entire near side of the earth.
So their little story about they're going up to see the curvature, they're absolutely not.
[00:35:15] Unknown:
Well, there's gonna be some points deducted for for that. That's not cool. We can't tell people that you'll get up to 15 miles. They say maximum of them 19. So if they get you just about 15, that's probably into the stratosphere, And then you might see the bottoms of a you know, just above some airplanes. They got a to the airliner there, but they're just above. It's because they go about 7 miles. So you're gonna go twice as high as commercial airliner in one of these balloons?
[00:35:55] Unknown:
That world views marketing as an a space experience is sort of misleading. What do you say to those those people?
[00:36:01] Unknown:
Well, our experiences around viewing our earth and experiencing the darkness of space. At a 100,000 feet, people are going to be able to see the termination line where night is turning into day or, day is turning into night and see that moving across the surface of the Earth. They're gonna be able to see, weather forming and moving. You know, they're gonna see an organic Earth. They're gonna see a living Earth. You know, and that's what's most important to us.
[00:36:27] Unknown:
There is no universal definition of space. We are regulated as a spaceship. We go over 98,000 feet. We are a spaceship. Outside the capsule, it's essentially a vacuum. We're above 99% of Earth's atmosphere, which is why the sky is so deep black.
[00:36:45] Unknown:
For now, these experiences are hypothetical.
[00:36:49] Unknown:
They're hypothetical experiences. That's nonsense. It's not a vacuum. And even mainstream science says at this point says space in and of itself is not a vacuum, that it's just a much lower atmosphere than Earth, which still absolutely doesn't track for vapor. When a vapor is not in a container, it will equalize. So it doesn't really matter that they're saying that there is some atmospheric pressure at this point and that it's not a vacuum like the old, Hollywood depictions where, you know, you just because you're in a vacuum. But, absolutely not what she's saying in any way, shape, or form. Like, that's just absolute nonsense.
Like, these people are just full of shit. It's it's even according to the mainstream, that's amazing. That's amazing.
[00:37:51] Unknown:
That's one perspective.
[00:37:53] Unknown:
For now, these experiences are hypothetical. All the stratospheric balloon companies we spoke to are still developing and testing their systems. Only Zafalto has performed any crude tests so far, though not at the company's target altitude of about 15 miles above the Earth's surface. The first flight with
[00:38:11] Unknown:
the the first prototype took place in 2018. Now it's the 5th generation and, we'll fly at 25 kilometers before the summer. We have
[00:38:22] Unknown:
25 kilometers?
[00:38:24] Unknown:
Is that what he said? I was sitting here trying to work that out. I'm like, what the fuck was did he just say?
[00:38:33] Unknown:
And, we'll fly at 25 kilometers
[00:38:37] Unknown:
before the summer. We have a 25 kilometers before the summer. He was saying elementals. So in in the spring of 2024, they flew their balloon. Okay.
[00:38:51] Unknown:
Approximately 10 uncrewed test flights to do, before we start flying, with people.
[00:38:59] Unknown:
Space So they haven't put people or living things in these balloons yet, but they've done test flights. Alright?
[00:39:09] Unknown:
This perspective in WorldView would not give CNBC an exact date for when they plan speaking commercial flights, but Zafalto said the company is aiming for 2025. When they do get off the ground, Worldview, Space Perspective, and Zafalto all say their experiences will last several hours. Prices per ticket vary ranging from
[00:39:29] Unknown:
This is where it hits your pocketbook. 50,000, 125,000, or 184,000 for a 6 hour trip.
[00:39:40] Unknown:
From $50,000 per seat with WorldView to around $184,000 per seat with Zafalto. By comparison, the trips offered by Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin are much shorter and much more expensive. Virgin Galactic, for example, sells tickets to its 90 minute long flight for $450,000
[00:39:58] Unknown:
per seat. Are these both the companies that that already did the little stage flights? Isn't blue,
[00:40:05] Unknown:
whatever. What's his nuts? And then The the Bozo brothers of, Amazon, the Bezos, they have the Blue Origin. They flew with Wally Funk up in the space. The youngest man and the oldest woman, who they are in their little pod. This is a galactic. Galactic has
[00:40:24] Unknown:
something else that they're playing around with. What was the second word, though? Isn't that the same word that that blonde dude that fucking paid for that one? Isn't that his? Richard de Branson? Yeah.
[00:40:36] Unknown:
Virgin Galactic?
[00:40:38] Unknown:
Yeah.
[00:40:40] Unknown:
It's a different thing. Blue Origin is a separate thing from Virgin Galactic. These are the companies that have previously offered some sort of
[00:40:53] Unknown:
flight for anyone who can afford it. In comparison, the trips offered by Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin are much shorter and much more expensive. Virgin Galactic, for example, sells tickets to its 90 minute long flight for $450,000 per seat. SpaceX does offer trips that are several days long, but getting a single seat as a tourist on the company's crew Dragon capsule Compared to rocket powered space tourism, the physical sensation that passengers will experience on a stratospheric balloon ride is much more comparable to being on an airplane. Passengers will not experience weightlessness.
[00:41:27] Unknown:
This is not a thrill ride. The capsule is designed as in what we call a shirtsleeve environment where you don't have to wear any specialty equipment. We don't need any physical requirements to board the balloon. If you can board a standard plane, you can board the balloon. For our customers, this is all about the incredible experience of seeing Earth in space, and we'd be able to give them that experience
[00:41:48] Unknown:
without the high g's that come with rocket flight, without having to do any of that training.
[00:41:56] Unknown:
No training required. Just have to have a good credit check
[00:42:01] Unknown:
and pay the bill. A lot of money. Have lots of cash.
[00:42:07] Unknown:
That's good. And, of course, they don't wanna show you the actual view because they don't wanna spoil it for you. So you wanna see the view with your own eyes? I don't think it looks anything like this perspective that they're showing.
[00:42:22] Unknown:
No. No. The balloon does not seem to account in any way for the 1,000 a 100 for the 1,000 miles spin on the axis. It's gonna get real hard for them to land. I don't know how they're gonna do it. You know? Maybe they got, you know, because she just said they're gonna be up there in a vacuum. So the supposed story of the earth's atmosphere pulling itself along. Well, once you get into the vacuum, that shouldn't happen anymore. So
[00:42:52] Unknown:
yeah. You'd just be going up. It's from it's from your eye. Your eye is not flat. Our eyes are round. The lenses of our eyes are round. So Yeah. I mean, anything flat is gonna look round or curved.
[00:43:11] Unknown:
Well, unless you're far enough away from it, and this simply doesn't get far enough away in order to actually get the perspective they're claiming. Right? Because you only are able that according to that, you're only able to see, like, 400 nautical miles. Of course, it naturally is gonna curve because you naturally are gonna get a horizon that is the limit of your vision.
[00:43:40] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. It's like your eyeball right up against the beach ball. Around.
[00:43:45] Unknown:
Yeah. Worldview plans to launch from 7 locations that the company calls wonders of
[00:43:50] Unknown:
the world. 7 wonders of the world, Grand Canyon USA, Amazon rainforest Brazil, the Aurora borealis Norway, pyramids in Egypt, Serengeti in Kenya, Great Wall of China, Mongolia, and the Great Barrier Reef of Australia.
[00:44:06] Unknown:
Wouldn't you think that the, where the aurora borealis, that would be somewhat dangerous? Like, would you really wanna be at 15 miles up in a balloon in an elect what's basically an electrical storm? Plasma. Yeah. Like, in a giant plasma storm? That doesn't seem to make sense.
[00:44:24] Unknown:
It would be weird. It'd be cool.
[00:44:32] Unknown:
It's a bird's eye view. So it looks like, they've got a ocean liner here, and they're gonna take you out to the middle of the sea and launch you up. To launch and recover it I guess they'll make the catch it. Starting with missions off the coast of Florida.
[00:44:45] Unknown:
Zafalto plans to begin operations from a spaceport in France.
[00:44:50] Unknown:
I don't remember that from that balloon boy incident. The balloon is probably safe and effective. Yeah. You're probably right.
[00:44:59] Unknown:
Space perspective, meanwhile, will use a ship to launch and recover its balloons from the ocean, starting with missions off the coast of Florida. Zafalto plans to begin operations from a spaceport in France.
[00:45:12] Unknown:
So you're gonna go up and then you just drop it in the ocean?
[00:45:17] Unknown:
I was wondering why the bottom was pointed like that, but that would make sense. It probably got ballast on it so that it floats straight up and down. Right. It's shaped like an upside down teardrop kind of. Would that make sense?
[00:45:35] Unknown:
Because I mean, I couldn't imagine even without Earth's spin, you're that many miles up there. You're gonna have to come through quite a bit of environment on the way back. It's gonna be awful hard to land where you look like a used condom. Okay. That's brilliant.
[00:45:53] Unknown:
This is this is SpaceX. Indeed. Yes.
[00:45:58] Unknown:
We work with NASA and NOAA, and we have, commercial customers as well. Oil and gas customers who are wanting to understand the methane, leaks in their infrastructure or wildfire monitoring or defense and security customers using our technology to better understand troop movements on the ground. All the companies CNBC's
[00:46:19] Unknown:
Wait a second. They went from being a tourist space exploration thing to saying that they wanna sell it to businesses so they can monitor forest fires, methane gases, and surveillance.
[00:46:34] Unknown:
Oil and gas customers who are wanting to understand the methane, leaks in their infrastructure or wildfire monitoring or defense and security customers using our technology to better understand troop movements on the ground.
[00:46:48] Unknown:
All the companies CNBC spoke to said they're manufacturing their own stratospheric balloons.
[00:46:53] Unknown:
The balloons we use are called zero pressure balloons. So that means that the atmospheric on the inside of the balloon is identical to the atmospheric pressure on the outside of the balloon. If you see a a helium balloon or even any kind of balloon pop, it's because the pressure on the inside is higher than the outside. So, you know, even a 6 foot hole in the balloon, it would be a very, very minimal impact on the flight as a whole.
[00:47:19] Unknown:
For those who can't see the logo, the logo is a w and a v. So you imagine, like, a unicursal hexagram. B w. B w. Along the flight. Will do.
[00:47:37] Unknown:
WorldView has chosen to use helium as the lift gas in its balloons, while Space Perspective and Zafalto are using hydrogen.
[00:47:43] Unknown:
Hydrogen is a combustible gas and Hydrogen. You know, no matter what steps you take, to try and contain hydrogen, it's still a combustible gas.
[00:47:54] Unknown:
Hydrogen is a combustible gas.
[00:47:57] Unknown:
Basically free compared to helium.
[00:47:59] Unknown:
Is this just back to the whole Zeppelin thing? Because that's literally what was going on. Not all Zeppelins used hydrogen, but the the, Hindenburg did use or was it
[00:48:15] Unknown:
Hindenburg.
[00:48:16] Unknown:
Yeah. Hindenburg did use hydrogen as their gas. And like he said, hydrogen is very explosive. So that's it's interesting. We're right back to the, same zeppelin type thing, only now space zeppelins.
[00:48:41] Unknown:
That WorldView logo is very reminiscent of what does it remind you of? Come square and compass perhaps, your crystal hexagram as above so below So we're talking flying. Talking to Forrest. To bring me the horizon band logo.
[00:49:01] Unknown:
Yeah. Very masonic.
[00:49:11] Unknown:
Combustible gas.
[00:49:13] Unknown:
Back in December 2017, a hydrogen balloon exploded into flames during a test at WorldView's headquarters in Arizona. In a statement, a company spokesperson told CNBC that the test was done to try to determine if hydrogen could be used as a potential lift gas, But that WorldView has used helium in all prior and subsequent missions because of its non flammable and non explosive properties as the safest and most stable lift gas available.
[00:49:38] Unknown:
Helium is the safest, most stable lift gas available.
[00:49:44] Unknown:
I think this goes back to them trying to stamp out all hydrogen research and hydrogen as a as a resource, because they're trying to make it look dangerous, like, way more dangerous than it is. I mean, you could use it safely. Everybody invents a car that runs on water. They end up getting themselves killed. You know? Random shootings and stuff. Yeah. I think it definitely is explosive, but it's a great way to to to fly. You can get it pretty much anywhere. You could have a balloon that could stay up for for a long time and, just go down to the water and refill.
[00:50:40] Unknown:
Man, can you imagine that fucking balloon bursts and fucking, that thing comes rocketing down to earth like a giant bug bug? That's gonna leave a hell of a crater.
[00:51:00] Unknown:
It would be a big a nice show that caught on fire. Kapoof.
[00:51:07] Unknown:
Just come screaming in with fire like shit out of the movies. Make like an Arizona meteor creator.
[00:51:17] Unknown:
We need more Arizona meteor craters.
[00:51:23] Unknown:
More explosions.
[00:51:25] Unknown:
That thing's gigantic. And the the well, what's left of the the biggest piece of the meteor that's not that big. I mean, it's it's all iron. So, I mean, it's probably 100 of pounds, probably, like, a £1,000 or more, but not that big.
[00:51:48] Unknown:
And space perspective disagree, pointing to some of hydrogen's advantages over helium and saying it has a proven track record of safety.
[00:51:56] Unknown:
Hydrogen is cheaper and you you can really get it green, whereas Helium, it's a side product of the petrol industry. So, we have decided to use hydrogen. It is an extremely
[00:52:08] Unknown:
safe gas. It has actually been flown since the 1700s in balloons. Hydrogen is used in all kinds of things now, from cars to ships to airplanes. It is a much better lift gas than helium. It also is renewable.
[00:52:29] Unknown:
Generating hydrogen from Orkney's clean energy, it seems like they're setting up a clean energy grid with hydrogen.
[00:52:38] Unknown:
Yeah. Hydrogen's, that is the wave of the future. All these other things are garbage, but the hydrogen because when you combust hydrogen, it's super interesting because you don't it doesn't actually deplete itself, but it just turns it just can when it combusts, it attaches with oxygen and there's a byproduct of water, which is 2 hydrogens and an oxygen. So even though it can busted, it didn't really go anywhere. It's weird as shit.
[00:53:11] Unknown:
Let's see what happens when they bring science into it.
[00:53:14] Unknown:
With hospitals because they use it in MRIs and and things like that, which, we just don't wanna do. We looked at, the global supply of heat. They said they didn't wanna compete
[00:53:25] Unknown:
with hospitals using it for MRIs.
[00:53:28] Unknown:
Well, and they say, NASA in is the biggest purchaser of helium globally.
[00:53:35] Unknown:
Yeah. Which,
[00:53:38] Unknown:
we just don't wanna do. We looked at, the global supply of helium and we looked at how much helium we would be consuming. And the reality is is we'd be consuming less than a third of a percent of the helium supply globally. And we decided that since it's safer, it's it's what makes the most sense for our solution.
[00:53:56] Unknown:
The helium hydrogen debate is one that's been long distance and started with a number of infamous airship accidents during the infancy of the technology. Dirigibles.
[00:54:09] Unknown:
Well, I I helium's not as rare as what they make it out to be. What the biggest problem with helium is is is containing it. Right? Helium will go like helium's one of the few things that if you get it cold enough, it it actually becomes, oh, what the fuck's the name of that state? It's, like a super liquid, and it'll actually go through glass and things like that. So trying to actually hold and contain helium, not easy. Like, you think about that Kevlar, those, helium balloons that last for a couple days, you know, like a week with the cat that have the Kevlar. Another use for that Kevlar is that's such a tight and reflective surface that when they talk about sizzling screen from back in the old indoor grow days where cops would come by and use infrared lights to try and find grows.
Those things would actually keep the heat signature from your grow from coming through. And they yeah. That's what that was was, or not Kevlar, shit. What's the name of this what's the name of it? Mylar. Mylar. Yeah. They use that Mylar to hold in the heat signatures in indoor grows. So for that to hold on only be able to hold on to helium for a very short time, helium is is almost, impossible to gather, hold, isolate. That's where the real big problem comes in. It's a byproduct of, nuclear, decay.
[00:56:13] Unknown:
But Poynter argues airships and stratospheric balloons are not the same. In an email to CNBC, she said, Airships in general are not suited for hydrogen because hydrogen can mix with entrapped air. With its skin painted in flammable material, the Hindenburg was specifically not designed for hydrogen. It has no bearing on the overall safety of balloons. The nature of a balloon keeps air from mixing with hydrogen, so it's very safe.
[00:56:40] Unknown:
So this balloon is going up and then it's going down or is it dirigible? It's going forwards. It's going somewhere. You're traveling
[00:56:52] Unknown:
across the plane. It's got motors on it. Right. Helmet. Rudders to steer. You can't steer a balloon.
[00:57:06] Unknown:
Can you regulate a balloon?
[00:57:07] Unknown:
You can regulate hot air balloons by letting out air. You know, they open them up, and they they lose altitude. But I think this balloon probably I don't know. They probably have a thing where they can, but if it's the same pressure as the regular air, it's not really gonna change even if there is a hole.
[00:57:30] Unknown:
It's super interesting because earlier today, I was watching not happening. The parachute? Not happening.
[00:57:45] Unknown:
The parachute?
[00:57:47] Unknown:
Yeah. He tried to parachute. He was gonna try and parachute jump out of a hot air balloon, and the guy that was running it was like, no. Let's not regulate that. What people do as they please. I mean, I think anything that that gets up above certain height automatically is regulated. Federal government? Yeah. Yeah.
[00:58:17] Unknown:
At least over United United States.
[00:58:20] Unknown:
Like, you like, the you know, not too long ago, you know, what was it last year that the federal government was shooting down fucking weather private weather balloons and shit. You know?
[00:58:34] Unknown:
Yeah. You own your property. If you own property, you own the ground. You own the houses that you build on it, but you don't own the air over your property.
[00:58:42] Unknown:
Yeah. You may not even actually own anything under the surface level of the ground depending on what your mineral rights and your water rights are on your property. There's certain properties that you might not own the trees on the property. You might not own shit. It's kind of amazing. That's actually one of the reasons I didn't move to Oregon is because any water that actually is substantial enough to create a stream that leaves your property, the state automatically owns. And I was like, no.
[00:59:14] Unknown:
Oh, wow. Happening. Fuck you, Oregon.
[00:59:23] Unknown:
Yeah. That's what I said. That's why I stayed in Cali. Like, you you know, the the whole water rights thing, that's a big deal.
[00:59:32] Unknown:
I got out of there in 2009, Oregon.
[00:59:36] Unknown:
I think I just caught this woman, mewing between interviews. I don't know if that's underbite thing, or she's pressing her tongue to the top of her mouth to maximize her jawline to give that I think she just ate
[00:59:51] Unknown:
a warhead.
[00:59:52] Unknown:
Very new industry at the time.
[00:59:55] Unknown:
Melebrano says that under current regulation, commercial companies in the United States do have to abide by a few rules to get a FAA license to fly their vehicles, which includes requirements for flight crew training and qualifications.
[01:00:08] Unknown:
Right now, these include showing that you have life support. You need to show that your vehicle is going to operate the way that you intended to operate, and that's done through a demonstration of an actual operational test flight. The company is required to fully inform a space flight participant of potential risks, and that participant is required to give this informed consent.
[01:00:34] Unknown:
Informed consent. Got it. So sign the consent form, give them your money, and wait.
[01:00:45] Unknown:
In the absence of safety standards for commercial spaceflight participants,
[01:00:48] Unknown:
the companies that CNBC spoke to said they have put their own safety nets in place. We're not waiting for standards. We're using existing standards. I mean, we're looking at the design standards and the certification standards for vertical launch and recovery aircraft, so things like helicopters. You know, all of those provide, you know, the type of standards,
[01:01:09] Unknown:
that ensure the safety of, of our customers. Hartman says WorldView's capsule will also be equipped with a redundant life support system. All three companies say their systems have emergency parachutes that will bring the capsules to the ground in the case of balloon failure. Though this, they say, is an unlikely scenario.
[01:01:25] Unknown:
There's not a single in flight incident in the last 20 years, with these with these particular kind of balloons, technically called a zero pressure balloon. So the technology itself is very well understood and super safe.
[01:01:37] Unknown:
On the other side of the Atlantic, Zapfalto says it's developing its technology in partnership with the French National Center For Space Studies, which has been using stratospheric balloons for decades. Once the company passes all required tests, its system will be certified by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency, the same agency that certifies commercial airliners.
[01:01:58] Unknown:
When you consider it compared to rocket or a plane, the balloon is really more simple. That's a way also to be safer because you will have really less systems that can fail.
[01:02:11] Unknown:
So there are so many systems in commercial airliners that could fail. And instead of going to destinations using them for travel, we can ride in safe balloons, go up and go down. That's safer.
[01:02:32] Unknown:
I bet you they don't TSA scan you when you're getting on.
[01:02:38] Unknown:
You could bring your weed in your pocket. Yeah. It's gonna be real hard. Supposedly, the TSA, though, the whole thing started from 911, and it's gonna be real hard to crash that thing into a building accurately. Hey. Be it'd be impressive if you could.
[01:02:55] Unknown:
You'd have to drop it. Well, you need a passport to travel?
[01:03:01] Unknown:
You're not going anywhere. So no. Yeah. They're going beyond beyond the ice wall.
[01:03:06] Unknown:
That'd be cool.
[01:03:09] Unknown:
We'll get into talks of what's been happening at the airport, I think, for the Friday morning.
[01:03:17] Unknown:
Oh, yeah.
[01:03:21] Unknown:
Maybe we could jump to that video right now. It's all unraveling. Pause this one here for a moment and see what happened on Friday morning.
[01:03:31] Unknown:
The earth stood still. A glitch brought Microsoft Computers crashing across planet Earth, triggering blue screens of death even in Times Square. The software company says this was not a cyber attack, but due to employee negligence, we caught up with the man thought to be responsible for the outage.
[01:03:48] Unknown:
So the problem we're facing now is the lack of wire.
[01:03:52] Unknown:
Can you hear him clearly?
[01:03:54] Unknown:
Yes. Yeah.
[01:03:57] Unknown:
So the problem we're facing now is a lack of wire.
[01:04:02] Unknown:
Because when I I was trying to fix it. I could almost fix it in fact. I fixed it even, but the problem is the wire. So so you see this wire now? It's not long enough. So this was the only wire that I had in my car. So I was trying to fix it. If not, how long after that fixed it, then everything would have come back online.
[01:04:25] Unknown:
So the wire is not long enough. He could fix the computer problems if he had a wire long enough to connect the systems.
[01:04:34] Unknown:
Okay. Just to never have wire. Seem like that's long enough.
[01:04:38] Unknown:
Just when you have the enough, and it's raining now. You see all this rain. Enough instruments to to do the work. But I'm not even an an elect an an engineer for them. I usually do cleaning. But when I was cleaning by mistake, I think one of my prune touched something. So I know because I've been doing this for a very long time. I said I will just fix it. So that's what I did. So I want to get the wire. But before I left, I put this inside to hold it. But I think that it might it might have caused more damage.
[01:05:12] Unknown:
So his broom handle was stuck in a door, maybe to a server room or some equipment room, and the wire wasn't long enough. And he's just, he's just a janitor, but because he caused the problem, he's determined to fix it.
[01:05:29] Unknown:
Well, you gotta fix it. Of them.
[01:05:32] Unknown:
Yes.
[01:05:33] Unknown:
So that's what we're facing now. It's just a lack of, resources to do the work.
[01:05:39] Unknown:
FlightAware map shows how crowded Friday skies emptied as 100 of flights were grounded. Despite all the disruption, the employee sees a silver lining in the outage.
[01:05:49] Unknown:
The the airlines are not flying. Which one? Spirit. Well, I think I think God wants in mysterious ways. You know? Because this spirit anything that can make spirit is not a fly. It's a food thing. Here at LAX, the lines have been out of control for hours. With computers and kiosks down, gate agents have been unable to tell travelers when they'll finally be able to leave. But I don't I have to go because they're pushing for coming back to the office because apparently, I'm not supposed to be fixing, 3 mechanical work for. But I have to go.
But but I think they will fix it. But I because if they just follow the thing I was doing, they can fix it by themselves. It's just a wire. If I had a if I had a long wire, I would have finished servicing. It's just that I didn't have the wire. So I didn't want to ask anybody either. But that's all that's it. But I don't know if I'm going to be working there again because they told me to come back to the office.
[01:06:49] Unknown:
And wants to see him?
[01:06:51] Unknown:
No. I don't. I didn't talk to anybody. What happened? Hospital and airline and banks. Which bank?
[01:06:59] Unknown:
I'll definitely be back. I'll find it. He doesn't have a bank. So in a wireless world, we need to have longer wires to connect everybody.
[01:07:14] Unknown:
That's fucking hilarious. Yeah. They're saying it was, some faulty program. I was supposed to be doing a whole thing for an interview with Crow, and they had to bail on that because of that, because Crow was worried about it. They're like, where are you? Blah blah blah about a blue screen blah blah blah blue screen of death. I'm like, and and I'm yeah. I get, like, 12 messages from Rose, and I'm like, I I don't know what the fuck you're even talking about. Like, what this means?
[01:07:55] Unknown:
Whatever. Corporate computers that were controlled by something like an antivirus software installed on these terminals for business users. So in the IT infrastructure of the computer systems, they have the software installed that acts something like an antivirus. Make sure that only allowed commands are entered and ran and things like that. They pushed an update Friday morning, which was maybe not tested or something, but it caused all of these corporate computers running Windows to not boot properly.
[01:08:41] Unknown:
So we're just 95?
[01:08:44] Unknown:
Well, no. Windows 95 was still running. It was just the most current recommended version of Windows. I think that was affected. So maybe 1011. Windows 3.1 was not affected. 95, 98. Millennium, s e, XP.
[01:09:02] Unknown:
Windows 95 crashed a lot. Probably fine.
[01:09:06] Unknown:
Well, they weren't crashing due to this, updates to the it's a CrowdStrike software.
[01:09:14] Unknown:
I don't know. I heard that CrowdStrike word used a lot.
[01:09:20] Unknown:
Sure. It's a terrible name for a security company, CrowdStrike.
[01:09:29] Unknown:
Sounds like an attack. It was not a Cyber Polygon attack. Type of thing with the retarded black lady?
[01:09:37] Unknown:
The magician.
[01:09:40] Unknown:
Yeah. She's not a she's not a magician, whatever that is. She's not into it. That's amazing. That lady no more. Like, she is some kind of retarded, like, I I would not be at all surprised to find out that she is functionally illiterate.
[01:10:05] Unknown:
We do have brain scans for that.
[01:10:08] Unknown:
It's such a beautiful smooth brain.
[01:10:11] Unknown:
When we learned about MRIs.
[01:10:16] Unknown:
It's only 8:10 on the West Coast.
[01:10:22] Unknown:
10:10 PM CST. This is 262.
[01:10:27] Unknown:
262. Somebody was asking Corinne was asking how's daylight here because both Jim and I both got daylight still, and it's because it's only 8:10 here.
[01:10:38] Unknown:
8:10. What elevation are you broadcasting from? Are you guys in the stratosphere?
[01:10:44] Unknown:
I'm about 1400 feet.
[01:10:48] Unknown:
Yeah. I've been in the stratosphere most afternoon.
[01:10:53] Unknown:
So how high would you say you are?
[01:10:57] Unknown:
Not high enough. Although I was feeling pretty nice and high earlier when I got that Brian's transmission in. Like, in the last so many days, I've got my transmission in and tested, runs good, got the diesel generator back up and running, got that repaired, got Brian's transmission in. I I'm feeling good.
[01:11:23] Unknown:
Nice.
[01:11:25] Unknown:
Yeah. I would like to award you some order maxing points. Yeah. It's definitely increasing, certainly.
[01:11:36] Unknown:
Yeah. If you get 3 orbs, you get one more aura. Then I'll have then I'll have an extra chakra. It'll be in my butthole.
[01:11:49] Unknown:
And the Johns Hopkins guys will take pictures of your brain. Literally, your brain on drugs. That's
[01:12:00] Unknown:
drugs. This is your brain. This is your brain on boomers.
[01:12:05] Unknown:
There's no broken eggs, no frying pans, the brain scans of participants on magic mushrooms to a functional MRI scanner. The kaleidoscope world of colors that recorded is essentially a heat map of brain changes with the red, orange, and yellow hues reflecting a significant departure from normal activity patterns. The blues and greens reflect normal brain activity that occurs in the so called functional networks, the neural communication pathways that connect different regions of the brain. These scans published Wednesday, July 2024, and then journal Nature, for a rare glimpse into the wild neural storm associated with mind altering drugs.
Researchers say they could provide a potential road map for understanding how psychedelic compounds like psilocybin, LSD, and MDMA can lead to lasting relief from depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders. Psilocybin in contrast to any other drug we've tested has this massive effect on the whole brain that was pretty unexpected. It was shocking when we saw Now that's interesting.
[01:13:18] Unknown:
Affect size. Did they have dimethyltriptyline in there?
[01:13:25] Unknown:
Well, here's what the study did. It tested a single dose of psilocybin or a placebo in the form of methylphenidate, which is a generic version of amphetamine ritalin.
[01:13:38] Unknown:
I've been saying this stuff. From the 7 healthy adults,
[01:13:42] Unknown:
each underwent a total of 18 brain scans taken before, during, and after their initial dosing. They had 4 participants returning 6 months lighters for additional psilocybin sessions. They get some more MRI scans.
[01:13:59] Unknown:
Man, that's a stingy dealer. 6 months? Jeez. Yep. And getting hooked on the mushrooms, and then you're not gonna give me anymore for 6 months? You're kinda cunts.
[01:14:13] Unknown:
So they discovered that much of the disruption occurred in the parts of the brain involved in introspective thinking, daydreaming, and remembering. Those areas help individuals to find their sense of self.
[01:14:27] Unknown:
Well, that's very interesting given the way we started talking about earlier people having a real tough time being inside their own head.
[01:14:43] Unknown:
I wonder what the dosages were that they were using.
[01:14:48] Unknown:
Were they aero dosing?
[01:14:51] Unknown:
I would imagine they were low, minimal doses. It works it works amazing at the small amounts for all kinds of self improvement
[01:15:04] Unknown:
stuff. I like microdosing quite a bit. Yeah. It makes me less grumpy.
[01:15:11] Unknown:
It's definitely helped me with, transitions in life, like, who I quit drinking after when I was drinking for a long time, like every day, microdosing mushrooms for a couple of weeks totally reset my brain. It's awesome. It was like small amounts, so, like, I didn't hallucinate when I would take it, just a little tiny bit of a body change, and, I was also taking lion's mane mushrooms, and were pretty, pretty amazing. Then I had sort of an introspective trip at the end. I took took 2 doses and it just hit me super hard. I had a terrifying look inside myself for about 3 hours, and then I didn't have to take it again.
[01:16:03] Unknown:
You said, god, I don't like me.
[01:16:06] Unknown:
Well, it's all that stuff about yourself that you're, you know, that you don't see Yeah. Because of, it's painful sometimes seeing things about yourself that you don't that are there and you don't like. A 100%. It's, like, some people go through their whole lives not seeing those things about themselves, and it's a it's a way to act a fool.
[01:16:31] Unknown:
I think most people at this point have no introspection, and I think that just again goes hand in hand with that, you know, our talk earlier where they can't even handle not having some sort of sensory input. You know, just the idea that people are the sensory deprivation tanks. People are having to resort to those kind of things when, you know, it used to be you could just go out in the fucking woods or the forest or something and just have some time by yourself and shut the fuck up.
[01:17:06] Unknown:
25 milligrams. Is that a good size dose of psilocybin?
[01:17:10] Unknown:
25 milligrams? No. No. When we said when I said microdose, I didn't mean that. Holy shit. Who fucking takes 25 milligrams? Like, that's crazy.
[01:17:26] Unknown:
It's very low.
[01:17:28] Unknown:
That's very low. I think we got a disclaimer here too somewhere.
[01:17:34] Unknown:
Okay. Like, I'm not talking about, you know, your 7 gram epic, you know, trip. But freaking 25 milligrams, a quarter of a gram, Are you kidding me right now?
[01:17:51] Unknown:
So they measured the that psilocybin dose disrupted the functional connectivity in the cortex and subcortex acutely causing more than 3 fold greater change than the ritalin?
[01:18:03] Unknown:
It's sort of a big dose on on the Ritalin. Forty milligrams, it's probably twice as much as they would give somebody in one dose normally. And that's like the the maximum legal daily dose.
[01:18:23] Unknown:
It's a dose of reality.
[01:18:28] Unknown:
Dose of reality. Yeah. I don't think there'd be any there'd be much,
[01:18:34] Unknown:
Are you trying to summon, Brian Stavely?
[01:18:40] Unknown:
With the dose of reality? Just a dose of reality? Dose of reality?
[01:18:46] Unknown:
A dose of reality?
[01:18:48] Unknown:
I would consider a microdose about 1 gram would be what I would consider a microdose.
[01:19:01] Unknown:
Well, now we have pictures It's pretty high for a lot of people for microdose.
[01:19:05] Unknown:
Psilocybin.
[01:19:06] Unknown:
It's definitely a good amount. You'd be feeling pretty good, pretty mellow, not tripping out.
[01:19:14] Unknown:
Yeah. But not grumpy.
[01:19:19] Unknown:
Not grumpy. Very happy.
[01:19:22] Unknown:
You're like, it's not you know, you're not at the get off my lawn. You're more like, hey, man. Be nice to the lawn. Isn't it beautiful?
[01:19:35] Unknown:
Yeah. And you find a perfect rock that was just made for you to sit on, like, just waiting for you. You never know why you didn't see it before, but it's the best rock in the whole world. I love that rock.
[01:19:50] Unknown:
Does that rock play Freebird when you ask for it?
[01:19:55] Unknown:
Yeah. I cook stuff in the kitchen that I can smell.
[01:20:01] Unknown:
That's the psychedelic experience of Hulk Hogan on television.
[01:20:07] Unknown:
But not burnt toast.
[01:20:10] Unknown:
Man, back when Hulk Hogan was making movies, I've never seen any television with him. But back when he was making movies, even as a little kid who enjoyed cheesy ass wrestling, I was like, wow. This guy is the worst actor ever. Like, his movies were horrible. At least Rowdy Roddy Piper could act. Now it wasn't great. You know? It was cheesy, but Oh, he's the best. That's classic.
[01:20:40] Unknown:
Rest in peace, Rowdy.
[01:20:45] Unknown:
So Dwayne Johnson was in those witch mountain movies for Disney, but they never told me which mountain.
[01:20:54] Unknown:
I don't know.
[01:20:57] Unknown:
That's unfortunate. Which one? Which mountain?
[01:21:04] Unknown:
That's what I'm asking. They're they're escaping to which mountain, but they don't tell you. So you gotta watch the entire movie.
[01:21:12] Unknown:
Everybody's asking all the time. Even the people that are telling you, they still don't know.
[01:21:19] Unknown:
Yeah. I just skipped the movie then. It's not a problem for me.
[01:21:26] Unknown:
Can't get over how smooth those brains are in their little animation. Smooth brain sound bitches. There was, like, no wrinkles.
[01:21:40] Unknown:
That's why they needed mushrooms.
[01:21:44] Unknown:
Spatial desynchronization of cortical activity during the psilocybin. Psilocybin, LSD.
[01:21:54] Unknown:
I've always felt like, especially on a microdose, it alters reality just ever so slightly. I mean, you're still here physically, but, like, things that were very important, things that have, like, a sharp edge to them, that sharp edge is gone. It's like it's not connected to you anymore so much. And, you're able to look at it without being directly in it. And so you're able to function in a different way. Like like, one of the reasons that being a grandparent is so nice is because you are not directly responsible for the behaviors and things like that of that child.
So as a grandparent, you can you're free to just want them to be happy. You know, just just have a good time. And the parent has to be the one that has to have that sharp edge and care about their behaviors and things like that. And it's like it's like it does the same thing. It takes away that sharp edge where you're still part of it. You're still there, but it's like it's it's not weighing on
[01:23:14] Unknown:
you. That's awesome. Totally makes sense.
[01:23:19] Unknown:
Yeah. It's what microdosing makes me feel like anyways. Like, something that was super important and I couldn't hardly think around because I'm so focused on it. Now it's like okay.
[01:23:38] Unknown:
I wonder if they did the same the same experiment with a group of people that were in deprivation chambers, then scan the brain to see how that what the activity was doing. I bet it was also off the chart.
[01:23:54] Unknown:
Yeah.
[01:23:56] Unknown:
This publicly published paper doesn't get into any exotic or fun scientific exploration. It's pretty standard, real vanilla type stuff, giving them the drug, asking if if they can match something, you know, auditory and visual matching to see if they're coherent, and then recording their their brain through the MRA. Pretty boring stuff. Not a huge dose of it. Very small sample size with just a few adults and only 4 returning. I think they just wanted to get out so they could publish some photos.
[01:24:31] Unknown:
They just wanted to to have the the university purchase them some mushrooms. It's a good excuse. Or we're doing it too. We're doing experiments. We need mushrooms. They get a big mushroom budget, take most of them themselves and make up the results. It looks like they're giving them to other people, but in fact, it's just them. Yeah. Those scientists.
[01:25:03] Unknown:
Like, what do you mean what do you mean 7 people at a quarter of a gram? Each person only equals 1.75 grams, and you gave us half a pound. I need more.
[01:25:16] Unknown:
I need more. So it was was damaged in the testing. Yeah. And throw it away.
[01:25:25] Unknown:
The hell you even talking about? Your math is bad.
[01:25:32] Unknown:
I did test it against chance to see if it was more or less than what they expected, and they did some modeling, some math. Pretty boring stuff.
[01:25:49] Unknown:
There's some equations at least.
[01:25:51] Unknown:
Right. They gather some data. Persistent data sets. I don't know if it proved anything we didn't already know, and they cited a lot of references.
[01:26:06] Unknown:
Well, now they know it, and it's been verified. It's really the only reason they do it so they can cite it.
[01:26:16] Unknown:
And they gave us this real nice GIF here. Yeah. It's a meme and bold GIF of your brain on psilocybin, which is not an actual brain. It's a computer generated image of the shape of a brain with the heat map of what regions were affected, and it turns out that psilocybin affects basically your entire brain. All of your neural pathways are affected in some way.
[01:26:44] Unknown:
Is that an actual spider brain?
[01:26:48] Unknown:
There's no doubt that mushrooms have both a heady and a body trip to it. Usually, the body trips what I feel first. You gotta take quite a bit though before you really start tripping. I've gotta get I've gotta get above an 8 to try and get any kind of visual display or anything like that.
[01:27:11] Unknown:
When do you start seeing auras?
[01:27:16] Unknown:
I have never seen an aura. I'm not saying that it's not a thing. I've I've done the acrylic and photography where they can see it with the machines. So I'm not saying that's not a thing. I don't know that, you know, if if you were able to change it like that in front of that curling photography, you should be able to actively change your aura, and I don't think that's happening.
[01:27:39] Unknown:
You know, some women can see an extra color. It's like a genetic thing, like, back, you know, a few 100 years ago, supposedly humans couldn't see the color blue. And so the ocean looked, was described as red in, literature, and the sky was a, you know, a different color, but not, never blue. And then the when they chase when they chase back the, genetics, the allele genetics, if they found that there was like a a woman somewhere up the family tree that could see this color blue and only her offspring, like there's a lot of men that can't see it. You know, color blind men can't see a lot of colors. But, I think there could be people that could see auras.
Maybe it's a frequency of color that some people could see, and maybe some very rarely people do have the ability to see an aura. I've got some of those aura goggles, me and Rachel. They're like these blue dia diazine, dia cyan. They're these blue goggles, and you you wear them for a while, and then you practice looking at your hand and you can kind of see like a film or like a texture around the outside of your hand and then Like webbing? It's sort of I don't know. It it's
[01:29:13] Unknown:
Is that when you do the stranger?
[01:29:16] Unknown:
We gotta sit on it first. Oh, yeah. It does look pretty strange. So it could be one of those hands, you know, when you're, it's a shocking situation.
[01:29:28] Unknown:
Could I visit from the Tingler?
[01:29:29] Unknown:
The Tingler. Yeah.
[01:29:36] Unknown:
But, yeah, you can you can gory. You're starving. It's not fasting, just go get some food somewhere. That's not not having food isn't fasting.
[01:29:50] Unknown:
Starving. Why don't we call it slowing?
[01:29:56] Unknown:
That's a good that's a good point. That's a good question. Why don't we call it If you're abstaining from
[01:30:03] Unknown:
caloric intake, that slows you down. Upgrade that language to call it slowing, intentionally slowing.
[01:30:15] Unknown:
You'd be slowing your metabolism because when you eat, it speeds up your metabolism.

And also their cocks.
[01:30:42] Unknown:
Yes. That's what they say. It's in the video.
[01:30:47] Unknown:
Oh, the the the video they even talk about Dragon Ball z.
[01:30:51] Unknown:
Yes. Indeed.
[01:30:52] Unknown:
Yeah. My son liked that show. He's, like, fucking pushing 30. That's an old ass cartoon.
[01:30:58] Unknown:
The idea that some people have an invisible field that affects those around them taps into many other ideas present in digital culture. For example, the idea of having extra confidence that people can see or thinking you're the main character or trying to communicate being an alpha or sigma male. This fixation on how one is perceived is ultimately the subject of the aura clips as many show either themselves having a strong aura in crafted sketches or being weak. All in all, it's just become slang to describe whether or not someone is cool or in another word, has presence. As it turns out, it's pretty easy to track where it all began. You probably remember those weak versus strong aura memes from 2020 onwards, which certainly helped set the foundations of the popularity of this newer iteration.
[01:31:40] Unknown:
Do we remember this meme from 2020?
[01:31:44] Unknown:
No. What does that mean? People who put the serial first, people who put I don't understand.
[01:31:51] Unknown:
Do you put the bowl first, or do you put the cereal first? What the fuck are you talking about? You gotta put the bowl, right? I think it's about moral fiber, really. Strong aura, strong moral fiber. Like,
[01:32:04] Unknown:
how would you have cereal without a bowl? Like, you can the fuck are you gonna I don't even understand this question. Out of the box?
[01:32:14] Unknown:
Is is there a box involved? Strong auras. Think out of the box.
[01:32:19] Unknown:
Then throughout 2023, the idea of an aura being applied to certain athletes bounced around the Internet, turning it into a meme in mostly sports related spaces. And then in 2024, it evolved again to the point we see it today, whereby auras have become measured and quantified by social interactions. On that note, it's reminiscent of the Riz phenomenon as videos relating to a person's aura could replace their captions with bro got negative riz instead of negative aura. As such, it's easy to understand why the aura memes have continued to blow up into the 20 twenties as they have a So did you catch that about the Riz?
[01:32:54] Unknown:
Riz is aura? This is groundbreaking.
[01:33:00] Unknown:
Or it evolved again to the point we see it today, whereby auras have become measured and quantified by social interactions. On that note, it's reminiscent of the Riz phenomenon as videos relating to a person's aura could replace their captions with bro got negative Riz instead of negative aura. As such, it's easy to understand why the aura memes have continued to blow up into the 20 twenties as they have a strong history over the past few years. After all, the idea of having an aura is inherently a goofy one, which is often referenced in the memes that poke fun at it, as despite some people being genuinely obsessed with how their presence is perceived by others, it is ultimately a social construct that meme creators can That's Dragon Ball z.
[01:33:40] Unknown:
That guy's
[01:33:42] Unknown:
a. He's very ballsy. That knife trick.
[01:33:48] Unknown:
Yeah. His name slipped quite fun at it. As despite some people being genuinely obsessed with how their presence is perceived by others, it is ultimately a social construct that meme creators can have fun with. What meme would you guys like me to give a lesson in next?
[01:34:02] Unknown:
What's kind of the creative stuff? How those nineties cartoons really hung on. That and the Pokemon, you know, the Pokemon's still huge. My, grandson plays Pokemon at school and collects them still and all that. And then, Yu Gi Oh, and there's still Yu Gi Oh turns. It's real weird that those, nineties cartoons really hung on so much.
[01:34:28] Unknown:
Very influential. All the anime talk, the constant persistent online culture of message boards and meme videos and people growing up with this stuff, and then they're taking it not too seriously, but really using the language to describe things with their own vernacular.

Gordy has the Beatles playing in his brain. That explains a lot.
[01:35:05] Unknown:
Oh, the white album. Great album.
[01:35:09] Unknown:
Jim knows the name of a Beatles album. That also explains a lot too. The best Beatles album. The white album. Not like when you find, like, a kernel of corn and a piece of poop, like, that's the best piece of it?
[01:35:24] Unknown:
Well, it depends on if it's yellow corn or red corn. Both good corns. Both good poops.
[01:35:38] Unknown:
Not a fan of corn.
[01:35:41] Unknown:
But you like The Beatles. Right?
[01:35:43] Unknown:
No. Not even a little bit. I have no idea why people like them.
[01:35:51] Unknown:
I'm not super big in them into them anymore, but I like the Beatles. No grand nostalgia.
[01:36:01] Unknown:
Korn with a k?

A little corn.

A little corn. A little seafood.

My brother was real into them when we were younger, and the first time I heard it, I was like, that is just really dark. Like, it didn't seem like it wasn't you know? And I and I liked, you know, metal and whatnot, but that just had, like, a dark edge to it. Like, almost almost like a heavy metal crossed with, who are this? Typo negative. Like, typo negative and a heavy metal band fucked, and that's what happened to make Korn.
[01:36:39] Unknown:
I bet that was a noisy experience.
[01:36:43] Unknown:
Like the baby metal?

The metal, intercourse and birth.

And what we're going nuclear salt and typo negative?
[01:36:55] Unknown:
The online discourse z short for Charisma. So the riz of Charisma is not the same riz. I would have assumed that's what it was. Well, they're denying it, but I think I think there's reason to believe that it did come from charisma, the riz of charisma. Riz being defined as a person's ability to seduce a potential love interest. It's like charming and winning the
[01:37:32] Unknown:
game. So how's that not charisma? Like, how is it it's, like, charm and charisma are fairly synonymous.
[01:37:46] Unknown:
What what did they say it was? Riz originally?
[01:37:50] Unknown:
Riz. Z z. Well, they're they're trying to deny that it wasn't from Charisma. It's just I don't know. I think the guy pulled it out of his aura. He made he made it up for nothing. So to to claim that it was only taken from the word charisma, which already existed, that's not magical. So there's there's no, there's no reason to believe that Riz came from Charisma. That's just too convenient.
[01:38:24] Unknown:
Yeah. Except for when the descriptors on it or or half the descriptors are Charisma. Right. It fucking sense. Right. I think what it is is that same thing as that chick boy. I'm not a I'm not a a mukjeshin.
[01:38:42] Unknown:
Whatever. I'm not into that. Like, the guy probably didn't even fucking know it's Christmas. Like, no. That's not what it is. It it may be true that she doesn't write her own music. She just performs it. So then she's a performer. So she's not a magician. A musician.

Meowser. Meowser. Meowser.
[01:39:10] Unknown:
Did she have Riz, or did she lose aura points for not playing it cool in that interview?
[01:39:16] Unknown:
Well, I have a little more of them. She eats.
[01:39:19] Unknown:
If Riz is something she eats, that lady needs to stop eating. She's heading out freaking heifer.
[01:39:29] Unknown:
Riz is quantifiable, but I don't think it's consumable.
[01:39:33] Unknown:
It it obvious it absolutely is not quantifiable. Like, you cannot quantify something that like that. Like, this is fucking dumb to say the word quantifiable in that little video. I was just like, when it happened, I was just like, are you fucking serious? You can't quantify something like this. You can you can put little numbers on it and and pretend, you know, make little determination. All you're doing is saying whether you like something or not. That's not it's like rating a girl on a 1 to 10 basis or something. Like, there's not any reality to it. Like, we will all pick entirely different numbers if we're asked the same question on that. It's not like there's a quantity of 5 beans and we're like, well, yeah, there's 5. And anybody that doesn't say there's 5 is retarded.
Like, you know, like, your coolness is not cannot be quantified. Just dumb.
[01:40:36] Unknown:
Sure. And that's why these guys are ranking in some way. They're ordering from most to least or least to most athletes in terms of their aura to say that this athlete is the maximized aura. It has the most aura of any athlete. Something to the effect of, like, the goat the greatest of all time. So they'll argue that one athlete is the greatest of all time, has the most maxed aura.
[01:41:10] Unknown:
They place it on top. Even in that, you can at least somewhat quantify it. Like, if you're a professional athlete, you got some kind of statistics of achievement that can be quantified. And you can then say, I think so and so quarterback Peyton Manning is the best quarterback because, look, he threw the most yards. He threw the least interceptions. He threw the most touchdown. Whatever the fuck you're trying to say, there is a quantity you're using to do that. There is no quantity of cool. There's definitely not a 10 we can all agree on. No. No. The attractiveness of women is vastly different. I mean, you know, there's obviously the, symmetry of the face and people that are more symmetrical are typically considered more attractive.
But then at some point in time, that even falls off because then, like, you remember back in the day with the Cindy Crawford with the beauty mark where that actually destroyed was counter to the symmetry. And that's what created the attractiveness was the break in the symmetry. You know? So I mean, that's it's definitely Jess Galbo was hot. But Well, there's more than just taking a good photograph.

You end up with, like, a 4 at best. Yeah. Because obviously, the personality just kills every

That's what these young men recognize. They recognize that there's more to a person's overall rating. I guess, some idea to get into sexual marketplace value in some way. So that recognizing it's more than
[01:43:26] Unknown:
it's more than just genetics. It's more than just wearing clothes. Behaving right, though. It said not being toxically masculine, not being all these other things. Well, all those things were, boundaries for men behavior. I didn't see any boundaries for women behavior behavior in there.

Of auctioning you?

It wouldn't be for sex. Wouldn't be a sex auction. Yeah. I don't think that would be illegal if it wasn't a sex auction. I mean, unless both parties wanted wanted such events, it would be outside of the scope of the auction, I'm sure.

The safety inspector came and said, you're grounded. You can't go anywhere. There are no helmets. You don't have helmets. You can't go. And they were trying to stop the whole experiment. And so him and his partner there, they just, dumped their lunches out of their lunch baskets and stuck them on their head, and they said, we've got helmets. And then the, Sapiens beggars said, okay, go ahead.
[01:49:39] Unknown:
That is definitely some Wiccan magic.
[01:49:46] Unknown:
There he is. I don't think he's wearing his helmet. Light on top of it. Look at the little satellite. It's got a satellite. The satellite.

You just keep drinking your own piss, and it's you know, works out, I guess. It's like you're a camel. Only your bladder is the camel hump. You get tasty yellow water.

Can you see their auras? Can we measure their is?
[01:51:20] Unknown:
Even in this black and white photograph, the multifaceted holographic toroidal aura surrounds them strongly. It's surprising they could stand so close together.
[01:51:34] Unknown:
Yeah. They couldn't quite touch because then there might be an explosion. Mhmm. Blowing up the hydrogen in the balloon.
[01:51:43] Unknown:
They're as close as they can be without causing the ladies to question.
[01:51:51] Unknown:
They don't need lunches. Not with Riz like that.
[01:52:04] Unknown:
Everlasting. The recall? Is everlasting.

[01:52:49] Unknown:
Mhmm.

And my oldest daughter liked Barney, and I hated Barney. Oh, man. Barney's the worst. Yeah. I totally was way better with Powerpuff Girls than Barney.

Well, you're gonna have to be dealing with that soon, Jim. You'll know the Oh, shit. Latest cartoons.
[01:55:30] Unknown:
Real life is pretty much a cartoon at this point. Did you hear the story about a drug smuggling tunnel in Tijuana that is so long, authorities don't have enough oxygen to reach the other end?
[01:55:44] Unknown:
What?
[01:55:46] Unknown:
It didn't clarify in the headline whether or not they just they're walking the path. See what's on it? Making it. They have oxygen tanks. They take breaks. They face themselves.
[01:55:59] Unknown:
Maybe they had tanks dropped off every few feet. That doesn't make sense, does it?
[01:56:05] Unknown:
They couldn't find the exit point. It was such a long tunnel.
[01:56:10] Unknown:
You just gave up. They didn't wanna find it.
[01:56:15] Unknown:
They shotted the flashlight down, and they're like, no. There's there's graboids down there.

Her 3rd studio album, Artpop 23rd she been around that fucking long. She co wrote and co produced the track with Zed and the psychedelic trans duo infected mushroom. That's a bad mushroom. You don't want the infected ones. That dude lady thing, whatever that person is is not right. Lady Gaga. Giga.
[01:57:20] Unknown:
Lady Giga.
[01:57:23] Unknown:
Dude, when I was in prison, all these dudes will walk around singing that poker face song. Jeez. I'm like, they're weird. But Jake like, it's it's super weird that when you take girls out of the equation and you break it down to a micro of a micro verse of just men, a bunch of the men will start acting acting like women and sitting and watching, like, Kardashians and shit like that. You're like, what the fuck are you dudes doing? Get the fuck out of here.
[01:57:59] Unknown:
I guess there's no women in prison, so somebody has to fill that role watching the Kardashians.
[01:58:09] Unknown:
Yeah. And they're the ones that sit around and gossip and do all that weird shit like that. And they don't go work at the they don't go work out in the the housing or welding or anything like that. Super interesting. I don't know. They sit around and give each other hand jobs and gossip about shit or something. I don't fucking know. It's like mouse utopia. Yeah. So interesting how, how much that parallels the society we're watching.
[01:58:49] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. Just falling apart. It's a big experiment. It's all it's also out in the open and everybody's watching it, in disbelief. They're like the the this is totally bullshit, but nobody does anything. Nobody stops it. Everybody's like, oh, it totally was fake. I was talking to some normie people that I work with, and they were like, oh, that whole shooting thing, like, that was totally fake. These are like people that don't believe in conspiracies. And I'm just like, wow. Like, the whole world knows that it's all bullshit. And Right. Just letting it slide.
Just letting it slide. Doesn't matter.
[01:59:44] Unknown:
No. We gotta be less comfortable before it matters. That's when, that's when it'll matter. And we're getting we're getting less comfortable, but nowhere near, like, we're we're still epically comfortable for historic historically for humans. We are epically comfortable. We are more comfortable than basically any king before the 1900 was.
[02:00:14] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. With our black mirrors taking us everywhere in the world we wanna go.
[02:00:23] Unknown:
Oh, and our tent tire. And our cushion seats everywhere, and we can eat any kind of food we want. We can have any kind of entertainment we want. Like, we don't have to grow our own food. Like, it's it's amazing.
[02:00:43] Unknown:
Games are amazing. I mean, you have to make your own entertainment back in the day. Whittle yourself a chessboard.
[02:00:52] Unknown:
Yeah. Had to find yourself a stick, and then you had to, like, imagine that that stick was something besides just a stick. Yeah.
[02:01:05] Unknown:
It's my done. My sword. Magic wand. Yeah. Magic wand. Yeah.
[02:01:12] Unknown:
Like, now these kids, they don't have to do any of that. They've got they've got a game that's preloaded up to do all the thinking for them. They're just gonna push some buttons.
[02:01:25] Unknown:
Yeah. I bet kids can't pretend anymore. They probably don't have make believe lives.
[02:01:33] Unknown:
My, iPads. Yeah. Yeah. My my my my sons before they left home, they had another little kid when we moved here. Another little kid came over. And all that little kid wanted to do was say lines out of TV shows, and then he would want the other kid to also say some other line out of the TV show. So they were just recreating scenes from a TV show. And that's what he thought was fun was to, like and, like, that was, like, what they do and Imitation. Yeah. Yeah. I'm like,
[02:02:15] Unknown:
we're it's not just kids that do that. Adults do that too, and that's what the whole Ready Player 1 story was about, people living in kind of the near future, reflecting on past media, and then memorizing movie lines and becoming the character in the movie they liked by reciting the lines and receiving sort of a point system as to how accurate they were able to recite the line with the same intonation as their favorite actor, probably Matthew Broderick or someone from a 19 eighties teen sex comedy. So that sense of nostalgia was so overwhelming that there wasn't a whole lot of creation of new stuff, but they held in high reverence in regard, you know, Spielberg movies.
[02:03:06] Unknown:
Matthew Broderick was such a weird example of a teen sex idol.
[02:03:12] Unknown:
Ferris Bueller.
[02:03:13] Unknown:
I don't even know what to say about that one. When he was in War Games.
[02:03:17] Unknown:
He's a pretty clever guy.
[02:03:20] Unknown:
Project x. X idol, though. Fuck. He's
[02:03:25] Unknown:
Are you trying to say you found Matthew Broderick sexy? Is that what this whole episode's about?
[02:03:37] Unknown:
No? I don't know. I mean, I guess There are a lot of sex icons in the eighties. You have to compare Matthew Broderick to other white male actors from that period.
[02:03:51] Unknown:
Patrick Stewart?
[02:03:52] Unknown:
Patrick Stewart. Patrick Stewart. Patrick Stewart.
[02:03:57] Unknown:
I don't know what his version of sexy is. He he pulled out Matthew Broderick. I don't even know where it was going.
[02:04:07] Unknown:
In Ready Player 1, Matthew Broder was highly regarded as a very important figure in film, especially in war games. So much so that they wanted to recreate it, and they would go into virtual reality simulations in which the whole set and setting of the simulation was the movie. And they'd walk through the virtual world as if they were in the movie. So they would play the game as if it was just like a karaoke track, and they would just recite the lines. And they play the role of Matthew Broderick, and the virtual reality simulated characters in the movie would react to them by saying their lines. And because the guy already knew what the line was gonna be, it wasn't it wasn't out of their control. There was no unpredictability.
There's no spontaneity. It was comforting. It was predictable. It was memorable. It was a routine, and they could fall into that.
[02:05:10] Unknown:
Man, I was watching some homesteading show. It's called, like, 1923, and it's got Pierce Brosnan in it. He is a weird old pervy guy in that, like, really weird looking. He did not age well. Who is the guy who played in all those eighties movies? Like, the one where he went around and was a pizza guy, but he was actually a male prostitute.
[02:05:37] Unknown:
No one then?
[02:05:43] Unknown:

[02:06:42] Unknown:
What? Get what the fuck? Whoever thought Gary Busey was sexy?
[02:06:53] Unknown:

[02:06:59] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. Bruce Willis maxed his aura for sure. Die hard.
[02:07:04] Unknown:

[02:08:10] Unknown:
Yeah. No. He looks super creepy in it. Super creepy. You're like, wow. He did he does a really good job playing a creepy dude too. The other one that I saw that was in our that was a big romantic comedy guy that all the girls liked, who that early was that the 2 the nineties and the 2000? What the hell is that Hugh Grant? He is in that, movie called the gentleman, and he plays this creepy old gay guy. And he does such a good job with it. You'd never know it was him hooker fight club. That is great. That is great. That that's that's that's like bump fights type part 2. Like, the next guy that decides to go do the bump back when the Internet was the wild wild west. Christian Bale was kinda creepy when he was younger, though.
[02:09:07] Unknown:
It's still creepy.
[02:09:09] Unknown:
Yeah. I I I just want the air aura of Gary Busey's 2 front teeth. Like, the like, even his son has that exact same thing. Like, just those things, like,

And so I had to have one for chores for the week, and then I'd wash that one on, like, Friday. And then, that one would be clean for the next week. And then the other ones that I was wear the other pair I was wearing all week in school get rotated into the chore pants. And, but then there was a cakewalk, and I was going to the cakewalk with Molly Tullis. So I obviously didn't wanna wear jeans I'd been wearing for a whole week to school, nor did I wanna wear my shitty chore jeans. So I I washed them, and then I thought and then I put them on the fireplace.
And then I thought I could take a shower and come back out, and they would be nice and dry. And I came back out, and they were black, and there was only half of a jean there. And then I was down to 1 pair of jeans for the rest of the year. It was not good.
[02:14:18] Unknown:
No. That sucks.
[02:14:20] Unknown:
I do I do appreciate dry humor.

School. No. It wasn't too bad. Yeah. If I had just been had the chore ones, that would have been dire. I wouldn't I would have just skipped it then because, I mean, my chore jeans, like, roofed roofed a a week a whole week and nothing but chores and covered and shit. You ain't trying to wear those anywhere.
[02:15:08] Unknown:
So we'll be expecting clean laundry for a flat overcast?
[02:15:12] Unknown:
I'm not I'm not yeah. Yeah. I'm I you know what? My very the first Flattoberfest, I even bought them brand new spider shoes. Mhmm. And I wore shoot even my shoes had never had shit on them that I know of. Yeah. I'm not gonna, Google beef bandits. No. No. That I you know what? We were, on a on one of our show meetings, and I I can't remember what it was, but it seemed fairly benign, and I Googled it. And Yeah. Holy smoking Joe. Yeah. I remember that. Things out to try and not get porn sometimes. Oh, man. Like, the other day when I was talking about them little tiny kittens being a pocket kitty. And I'm I was thinking of, like, a pocket t shirt and a little kitty sitting in there doing this, and then I was like, you mean a pocket pussy? I'm like, oh my god.
Gotta think out these things sometimes.
[02:16:07] Unknown:
We're doing a lot of thinking on Tuesdays during the deliberating dog face dudes streams, shows. I'm not sure what it is yet.
[02:16:16] Unknown:
I don't know if any of the Marcus and I Marcus and I have, started a new adventure since Jim decided to start a new adventure without us. Making
[02:16:29] Unknown:
bids and stuff.
[02:16:31] Unknown:
He didn't invite us. My bed's only so big, you guys. That is that is a valid point. That is a valid point. And I and I you know, like, and my pit bulls come everywhere. They take up a lot of bedroom. Yeah. And you and you lost your, fancy jeans.
[02:16:47] Unknown:
Yeah. So no chore jeans.
[02:16:50] Unknown:
Yeah. I can't have those.
[02:16:52] Unknown:
They stink. They stink.
[02:16:54] Unknown:
But, yeah, Marcus and I and, John Roland from, the Natural Freedom League I've started a podcast type debate situation, which, hopefully, Jim will have some free time. He can join us at some points, but,
[02:17:13] Unknown:
Absolutely.
[02:17:15] Unknown:
We, just didn't wanna pressure him or get beat up by Rachel because she would come beat Marcus and I up if we took up more of Jim's time. She already sends regular regular threatening.
[02:17:29] Unknown:
She's not the boss of me, you guys.
[02:17:36] Unknown:
But, yeah. So we had our first episode. It was on, we put it on my my, channel and on John's channel, because of, restrictions on live streaming until we get enough subs. So everybody, please go sub to deliberating dog face dudes.
[02:17:55] Unknown:
Doing it now.
[02:17:57] Unknown:
Yeah. Thank you, guys. Delivering
[02:17:59] Unknown:
dog faced dudes. I think we need at least 50. Looks like we're at 38 now. 40 now. Alright. Nice. Thank you, Jim. Alright.
[02:18:09] Unknown:
Yeah. And I I really enjoyed Tuesday. I thought it went well. I I I'm I'm looking forward to the debates and have getting that because, honestly, you know, it's easy enough to have have a thought, you know, and have this worldview. And and if you have never stepped out of it to poke holes in it and or even just poke little ones, it's easy enough to think something sounds really good, and it does. You know, a lot of times, it sounds good, and then you start poke and then somebody who else who's looking at it from the outside starts poking holes, and then it's like, well, you gotta start rethinking, which doesn't necessarily mean that you give up your worldview, but just that you have to sometimes make alterations, which is no different than when I moved out to the farm here.
All the experiences and all the different things that we've done, I I'm I'm a big believer in actually living out and trying the things that I that I talk about and that, you know, practice what you preach. And and I'm a big believer in that. And, there's a number of things that you would really want them to be true, and they sound great, but in in theory, but in practice, they don't work at all. And you you gotta figure those things out. Like, one of the big ones that, we talked about on there that really, really caught a lot of, attention and got a lot of people have feelers about this is there's a lot of people that say taxation is theft, and that gets bandied about a lot.
And I understand the sentiment of, not wanting to pay into this government because this is such a horrible government and so horribly corrupt. But does that mean taxation in and of itself is theft? And so then it gets into a debate of that, and that's a very, interesting debate. And as somebody who's a landowner, who's had people come and stay, well, in a communal situation, anybody when you have a community that's com commune, community, communal, and you have some people, there's always gonna be, as you're working your way through people, some people who don't wanna put in.
And whether that's in in physical labor, whether that's in goods, whether that's in some kind of way. There's always gonna be people that don't wanna put in. And even if you're like, well, as long as I agree, you know, like, to the money's getting spent on this, well, now now you what? You don't pay on things that you don't agree on? Well, that's a real slippery slope that leads to nobody paying for anything. And in any kind of a community, you're gonna have different things that you have to maintain and do, and that's gonna require work. It's gonna require funds, things like that. Well, then if here's the thing. If you let one person in the community slide because, well, they don't wanna pay the taxes, well, then I promise you if there was 10 people in the community that were doing it right, those 10 commute those 10 people out of the 10, 7 of them now have a problem.
And why should they pay in to keep this system that these people are using and benefiting from and they aren't giving? And that starts becoming real, problematic. So I understand in this living in this particular system to say taxation is theft, you that you're being forced, and there's the other thing. Well, then, oh, well, if you make it a law, then it's forced. It's not it's an, you know, you're it's not a free will thing. Well, again, then that falls back to as soon as you let one person not pay or not put in their share, whether it's in goods, services, whatever, when one person doesn't, all of a sudden, 7 people don't. And where 10 people may have been and only 1 person wasn't, it will immediately switch to where it's not a tenable system. Like, when you for whatever reason, when people find out you can keep getting the milk from the cow without even taking care of it, without even being the person milking it, they that's that's where they go with it.
Yep. That's why the communes fail because there's always a leech. And, actually, most communes, there most of the people in the communes are leeches. At best, they'll they'll do something for themselves. They sure as hell aren't doing something above and beyond that they can't immediately see that their specific, need for. So taxes aren't illegal. Personal income taxes were illegal. And the reason personal income taxes, and this is in the constitution, illegal is an unapportioned tax. So what an unapportioned tax means is is they've not earmarked that tax for a specific purpose. So typically, the way a legal tax goes is, alright, guys. We need to put $10,000,000 into the roads.
Of that 10,000,000, we need to go in and take it from this, you know, we've got this large of a group of people. These people are gonna need to pay this percent, and this many people are in it, so that equals out to this much. These people, blah, da, da, da, da. And you you know, depending on how the taxes go. Or or, as long as the tax is earmarked for something and they only take the specific amount earmarked, that's a legal tax. So there are legal taxes. It's unapportion tax where they just take money and then they're just gonna willy nilly spell it, spend it however they want. That's an unapportion tax.
That shit's illegal, constitutionally.
[02:24:28] Unknown:
I'm trying to pull up that beef fandom story. The way to not pay taxes is just to take stuff.
[02:24:35] Unknown:
Usury is I've borrowed Marcus has borrowed a $100 from me, and I want a $110 back. That $10 is usury. And, yeah, that's a problem.
[02:24:58] Unknown:
You still have stories about the ACT test changing? Apparently, there's a science section. There's another fun story. T test. I don't know. We're on summer vacation. Really think about it. No. There's AZT. AZT. The HIVAITS test. There's a a girl who discovered that if she buried herself, it'd be hard to dig herself out. She was at a beach, dug a hole, she had to bury her body. The 16 year old had to be dug out. I think the tide was changing. They had to do a rescue effort.
[02:25:54] Unknown:
Did she survive?
[02:25:56] Unknown:
Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's like a real life coach.
[02:26:00] Unknown:
To say about this outside of I'm glad that there wasn't social media and cameras on everything when I was 16.
[02:26:10] Unknown:
Yeah. No cell phones. Yeah. When when you used to remember everybody's phone number that you ever called? Yeah. Yeah. I memorized them. Can't do that now. I mean, a lot of people don't even know their own number off the top of their head, unless they've had it for a couple of years. It's a weird world. And people are I mean, some things that are convenient, it's it's worth it. You know? Like, you can't just I I wouldn't go out and just be a homesteader and wash my own clothes in the river because just unless you have a big family, it's like a lot of time when you could actually maybe actually use a washing machine.
Like, I don't I wouldn't mind Some technology
[02:27:08] Unknown:
I've seen a I've been watching videos because we've got a stream over here that's got substantial power. And over in, like, Finland and shit, rather than having wash machines, they just set up a vortex in these little rivers, oh, near a fall where it's spinning, and they just chucked their fucking laundry in that, you know, and some soap right into this thing. Just and then they just rake it out and go home.
[02:27:39] Unknown:
That's a cool idea, actually. It's the best of both worlds. Yeah. You're doing it in the stream, but you're not, you have to have a big machine. Currency
[02:27:50] Unknown:
on the river bank laundering that money.
[02:27:54] Unknown:
Yeah. It was pretty damn cool. I was like, wow. Now that is that is awesome. And then all he had to do is ring it out and hang it up, and it's it's solid. And like I said, all they did was they just write in the rivers. They would just, you know, put little banks, you know, build little boards to create a vortex. That way, it would create a spin, and they just chuck their laundry right in there. Seeing them chucking sheep in there too. Is Is that covered in the science section of the ACT exam? Yeah. Watching the wolf Yeah. Cleaning the sheep and whatnot. They even were throwing in some, like, insecticides in there sometimes and whatnot if they lots.
[02:28:34] Unknown:
Oh, science is optional.
[02:28:36] Unknown:
The science portion, the ACT exam will now be optional. Now ACT, is that something for people in the Midwest, whereas others take an SAT test?
[02:28:49] Unknown:
SAT test test test test. It's because science is actually just a liberal cons conspiracy,
[02:28:57] Unknown:
So it's not necessary to learn in school. Well and so much of what they had on the ACT test is now fallen under the replication crisis that you can't call it science.
[02:29:12] Unknown:
They removed the writing section from 2,005 onwards. Now they're making the science optional. So when you sign up to take the test, there'll be different levels of what you're testing for. So the minimum testing that they announced doesn't include the science section or the writing section that was removed in 2,005. A lot of people take the test and then retake the test to get the highest score they can get. And the scores from 1 to 36. Students will be able to choose between taking the test online or with paper and pencil. The duration of the core exam will be reduced from 3 hours to 2 hours by making reading passages shorter and cutting out 4:84 questions. So they're streamlining the test.
I think they just wanna charge people to take it more often.
[02:30:10] Unknown:
Is this, to get into college?
[02:30:13] Unknown:
This is a college entrance exam. Colleges can request students to take the science portion if they choose to do so depending on what college you're applying for. So check with the college before you skip out, and then and then take a test that result won't be eligible for your entrance exam or your entrance application because you failed to take a science section that was required by a college.
[02:30:47] Unknown:
They're just dumbing people down so they have no choice but to be a beef bandit.
[02:30:52] Unknown:
Beef banditry is the way to live. It's the way to eat. It's the way to avoid paying sales tax. Just take the beef off the trailer.
[02:31:01] Unknown:
I would think that the biggest beef related crime is, public gaseous beef distribution. You know, beefing it, that really should be illegal. I don't know about stealing beef, but donating it, that's that's no good. It's out of Pennsylvania.
[02:31:23] Unknown:
I'm still looking for it. If I could report every crime of cargo theft, I have a 247 livestream going.
[02:31:34] Unknown:
That would be an interesting livestream, actually. I'd probably check that out. Let's start it tonight after the show. After the show, we'll start it.
[02:31:47] Unknown:
Yeah. I'd I'd probably covered weather events. There was another dam in Nashville, Illinois that didn't fail but had a spillover causing evacuations over July 16th. Nashville, Illinois from the heavy rains And strange weather news, Philadelphia had rain, which turned to snow, which was actually hail, but they reported the hail as being snowfall. And they were saying that it broke the record set in 18/70. While it is rare, it's not unusual, the National Weather Service said setting over a dozen other time. The trace of snow was recorded at PHL during the summer due to thunderstorm hail.
So they were counting
[02:32:54] Unknown:
Sounds like somebody's hail.
[02:32:57] Unknown:
With snow.
[02:32:59] Unknown:
Somebody's airing some beef around here. It's all about the wrapped beef. John John's got John's got a whole theory that he's putting together about wrappers and, wrapped beef. That's hilarious. Tied right into the weave right there. I can't remember any of the rappers' names. I got Doja Cat because Marcus has drilled that into It was Arby's,
[02:33:35] Unknown:

[02:34:30] Unknown:
Yeah. I got I got Doja Cat. John couldn't remember that one's name, and Marcus has drilled that into me. I I actually one day had to look that up and listen to one of them horrible songs. It was real bad. We didn't get very No. We didn't get very far into it. And I I thought it was fake the whole time. Some of this shit that I hear Marcus say, like, when he's talking about PewDiePie, Doji, cats, and all this. I'm

[02:35:12] Unknown:
No cap, little foil.
[02:35:14] Unknown:
Yeah. I'm old enough. You know, I got enough beard. I can just fucking look at the kids dirty and tell them to shut up and start cussing at them. You know? And I'm just like, oh, he's an old man. You just threaten me. Are you even speaking English? What's up, bitch?
[02:35:44] Unknown:
Got some Perseids meteor showers to look forward to. So full moon approaching. So after that full moon, does the wax for wane decreases and goes to new moon? It's raining. Meteor showers overnight.
[02:36:08] Unknown:
Moon is intense here. We're like it's everything so smoky. The Walla Walla Valley is just full of this smoke smell, burnt stuff smell. The moon is bright orange, like an apple or an orange. Yeah. An orange slice, like, 3 days ago. And then to last night, it's very near full. Just beautiful. Totally enwrapped by it.
[02:36:37] Unknown:
Definitely look up I moved over here. It was like that where it was everything here was smoke. We've had a good couple years, though, here.
[02:36:51] Unknown:
That's good. Yeah. The fires get old. Yeah. Yeah. It's nice of their stuff, but I would be terrified if there was fires around where I lived. You know, once it starts going, there's not a lot that can stop it.
[02:37:13] Unknown:
Well, funny story about that. I may or may not have called in a only one guy that can stop it. I I I know you called in a fog fire. I'm aware. Yeah. Right, Gary. You you as you're using the phone and doing those things, it pops up on the computer here because it goes through the computer and interrupts everything I'm doing. You're welcome. No. Yeah. We're not burning down. I know. Fog does not usually burn people down. No. I know. My wife has turned into the, she has hit the old worrywart stage of life. I'm I'm I'm looking forward to it. See what you think is a fire across the ridge? Yeah. She she watches she sits and watches fire alerts, and she knows exactly how many acres every fire in California, and there's, like, 400 of them. And then she has to I get a report on it also.
Like, did you know that this fire grew 12 acres? Are they burning books?
[02:38:06] Unknown:
Instead of burning books, you have the option to send them to weaving sweater to welcome suite 279 through a 7 South 9th Avenue, Walla Walla, Washington.
[02:38:15] Unknown:
What's the ZIP code? 99362.
