- 0:00Speaker 1: We built this city! We built this city on rock
- 0:05Speaker 1: and roll! Let's go. I just went to church, guys.
- 0:11Speaker 1: I'm feeling good. I really like my church. I really,
- 0:15Speaker 1: really like my church. I was, like, skeptical. I was
- 0:18Speaker 1: definitely skeptical. This is sort of my disposition these days,
- 0:23Speaker 1: is to be pretty skeptical. I mean, especially of institutions,
- 0:27Speaker 1: I think. But these are good intuitive folk. And the
- 0:39Speaker 1: names were really just rocking my entire world that I
- 0:44Speaker 1: encountered today. I spoke to the preacher. I was feeling
- 0:48Speaker 1: very brave. I was like, what's up? I was like,
- 0:53Speaker 1: I'm going to email you. I'm going to email you.
- 0:57Speaker 1: The first time I was, like... The first time I
- 0:58Speaker 1: went to this church, they were like, We just don't
- 1:01Speaker 1: want to be in debt, guys. Please. And I was
- 1:05Speaker 1: literally actively in debt, and I... I still donated to them. Because,
- 1:10Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not worried about it. I'm just
- 1:13Speaker 1: really not. But I've done the math, and I think that...
- 1:16Speaker 1: I think... I think... Like, technically... I'm pretty sure if
- 1:26Speaker 1: I took, I'm not in debt. I don't, I don't
- 1:29Speaker 1: think I'm in debt, but the thing is I do
- 1:31Speaker 1: the guy, I went to put air in my tires,
- 1:35Speaker 1: you know, at the, at the free place. And the
- 1:37Speaker 1: guy was like, you got to change your tires, girl,
- 1:40Speaker 1: if you're leaving town. And I was like, okay. Um,
- 1:45Speaker 1: and there's only one place that's open on a day
- 1:46Speaker 1: like today, which fortunately I think it's going to be
- 1:49Speaker 1: the cheapest place. Um, and hopefully they're going to have some,
- 1:54Speaker 1: They're going to have some good people on it, I
- 1:57Speaker 1: would say. So I'm just interacting with the church and
- 2:04Speaker 1: the car guys today. This is sort of my passion.
- 2:09Speaker 1: And I got to email the preacher. I got to
- 2:13Speaker 1: email the preacher. I have a good feeling about this.
- 2:19Speaker 1: I think... Even if nothing comes of it, I am
- 2:23Speaker 1: just kind of curious to see what he says. And,
- 2:29Speaker 1: you know... I trust these people. And so I'm thinking
- 2:41Speaker 1: a lot about something I said way in the past
- 2:45Speaker 1: about how blocking... Like, the ability to block someone on
- 2:52Speaker 1: a social media platform. Like, the ability to block somebody's
- 2:55Speaker 1: calls or messages. I sort of, in that instant, was like, yeah,
- 3:01Speaker 1: that's kind of the whole point. And obviously, I don't
- 3:05Speaker 1: think that's the whole point. And also, I think it
- 3:08Speaker 1: is a kind of privilege and protection that we are
- 3:13Speaker 1: able to do this now. And we are pretty, like, dispersed. Like,
- 3:16Speaker 1: I think... I think this is good. Like, I don't know.
- 3:25Speaker 1: I think perhaps I felt shame about my tendency. Because
- 3:30Speaker 1: I get overwhelmed. I'm a very emotional being. I feel
- 3:35Speaker 1: it in my body. I'm very in my body. I'm
- 3:40Speaker 1: extremely in my body in a way that you would just...
- 3:43Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are not like me
- 3:45Speaker 1: in this way. You know, my stress manifests as literal
- 3:51Speaker 1: knots in my body. And I have met three masseuses.
- 3:58Speaker 1: I have met three masseuses in training this week. And
- 4:03Speaker 1: I'm like, thank God. Thank God. We need more of
- 4:06Speaker 1: these guys. We need less of the other stuff. We
- 4:12Speaker 1: need more of these guys. And, you know, And I'm
- 4:18Speaker 1: intrigued to do a sort of service exchange with some
- 4:23Speaker 1: of these folks. But, you know, I don't know. I
- 4:27Speaker 1: don't know if it's ethical or if it's legal. I
- 4:30Speaker 1: think it is. I'm pretty sure that's how they used
- 4:33Speaker 1: to do it. But it's like I got some other
- 4:34Speaker 1: skills that I could do. I also have a massage table.
- 4:39Speaker 1: I also literally have a massage table. So maybe they
- 4:47Speaker 1: would want that. I don't know. But I kind of
- 4:51Speaker 1: want it. What was I even talking about? I'm just
- 5:03Speaker 1: feeling good. I think I know what I need to do. Trust. Trust. Trust.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Somebody who, like, doesn't trust me anymore recently asked me
- 5:17Speaker 1: a question. They were like, would you trust yourself? And
- 5:24Speaker 1: I answered honestly. I said, yeah, I am. I'm doing that.
- 5:29Speaker 1: And it's like, yeah, there's all these people who are, like,
- 5:30Speaker 1: not trusting me, and that's fine. I think people have
- 5:34Speaker 1: a very black and white perception of the truth. Like,
- 5:39Speaker 1: my sister just asked me. She's like, I was like, yeah,
- 5:42Speaker 1: I agreed to do this thing. And she was like, okay,
- 5:45Speaker 1: but are you going to be honest? And I'm just like,
- 5:48Speaker 1: define honesty. What do you mean? What are you talking about?
- 5:52Speaker 1: And she's like, well, are you going to tell them
- 5:53Speaker 1: about this? And I was like, I don't know. Because
- 5:56Speaker 1: it's not happening anymore. Maybe. I was like, maybe I'll
- 6:00Speaker 1: tell them. I don't know. It depends if it comes up.
- 6:02Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not the leader. If I go to
- 6:04Speaker 1: this thing, I'm not the leader. There's no way. If
- 6:08Speaker 1: I seek a professional for help, they're the leader. I'm
- 6:11Speaker 1: not coming in there guns a-blazing, okay? I'm not... I'm
- 6:16Speaker 1: not making any demands. I'm doing it because this is
- 6:19Speaker 1: what they want from me. This is what they want
- 6:21Speaker 1: from me. And I'm going to give them attitude straight up.
- 6:25Speaker 1: I'm going to be a brat and I'm going to
- 6:26Speaker 1: give them attitude. And hopefully it's a woman. And that
- 6:30Speaker 1: might like make me a little softer. So y'all pray
- 6:35Speaker 1: that it's a woman. If you want me to have
- 6:36Speaker 1: less of an attitude, pray it's a man. If you
- 6:38Speaker 1: want me to be a brat, because these are the rules.
- 6:42Speaker 1: These are the rules. I wasn't a brat to the preacher.
- 6:48Speaker 1: You know? I trust the preacher. I really do. I
- 6:53Speaker 1: think he's a funny guy. And I think the men
- 6:57Speaker 1: in the group really respect him. I can see it.
- 7:03Speaker 1: And I respect him. He made me laugh. He made
- 7:07Speaker 1: me laugh a lot the first day. He's just a
- 7:11Speaker 1: simple guy. So, I'm feeling good about all that. And
- 7:24Speaker 1: I have concepts of a plan for what I'm doing tomorrow. First,
- 7:29Speaker 1: I'm going to go see my sister, because this is
- 7:32Speaker 1: what we do. We freaking stick by our freaking siblings.
- 7:37Speaker 1: Some people could stand to learn this freaking lesson. It
- 7:40Speaker 1: seems a lot of people are maybe not doing this,
- 7:43Speaker 1: and I... The only way I know how to address
- 7:48Speaker 1: the situation is to fucking scream and be a little demonic.
- 7:52Speaker 1: If I'm just being honest, like, I'm gonna come in
- 7:55Speaker 1: there like the freaking child in The Exorcist, okay? Like,
- 7:58Speaker 1: the only way I know how to address the rage
- 8:00Speaker 1: I feel and the... Not even necessarily... No, it is rage.
- 8:03Speaker 1: It is rage. The only way I know is to
- 8:07Speaker 1: just absolutely try to destroy this person. Who, you know...
- 8:17Speaker 1: does not have a good relationship with their sibling. That's
- 8:21Speaker 1: the only way I know. And so I don't think
- 8:23Speaker 1: I should be the one. I don't, I think you're
- 8:27Speaker 1: gonna have to send in somebody a little more peaceful.
- 8:31Speaker 1: I think, I don't know who we're sending in. Is
- 8:36Speaker 1: it me? I tried. The thing is, is I tried
- 8:41Speaker 1: to reach out to the other side. I didn't get
- 8:42Speaker 1: a response. And the only way I know how to
- 8:49Speaker 1: proceed is to just be a little demon. And to
- 8:54Speaker 1: frighten them. This is my superpower. Is to just frighten people.
- 9:02Speaker 1: And I kind of like it. But the thing is,
- 9:10Speaker 1: people aren't... This is what I talked about. in private,
- 9:19Speaker 1: this is what I talked about. I was like, first
- 9:28Speaker 1: of all, I'm, I'm being, I'm being perceived like people
- 9:38Speaker 1: are moving on. There's a non moving on thing where
- 9:41Speaker 1: something happened in the past about to go or so.
- 9:44Speaker 1: And I kind of lost my shit and I wasn't sleeping.
- 9:46Speaker 1: And now they're saying, well, we're worried about you because
- 9:50Speaker 1: you're not sleeping. I'm like, I'm sleeping now. But now
- 9:52Speaker 1: I'm sleeping. Does anybody know what it means to be
- 9:57Speaker 1: in the present moment? And does anybody have a concept
- 9:59Speaker 1: of like people can change? Does anybody know anything about this?
- 10:05Speaker 1: It would seem these people do not. So there's that.
- 10:11Speaker 1: And then, because I had said, I was like, nobody
- 10:15Speaker 1: believes me. Nobody believes me. Nobody believes that I'm okay.
- 10:24Speaker 1: And at the time, I probably wasn't. Okay. I still
- 10:28Speaker 1: thought I was, to be honest. I don't know what
- 10:31Speaker 1: that's called. I felt good. I felt like... Yeah, I
- 10:38Speaker 1: probably felt a little too good. My dad used to
- 10:41Speaker 1: say that when he was a teenager, he felt invincible.
- 10:43Speaker 1: I kind of felt like that. I kind of felt
- 10:44Speaker 1: like invincible. um so i don't know what they call
- 10:49Speaker 1: that i don't know what that means i don't want
- 10:54Speaker 1: to know frankly it's not here with me anymore it
- 11:02Speaker 1: comes and goes this is what my teacher said i
- 11:06Speaker 1: remember i came to him and i was kind of
- 11:07Speaker 1: like tweaking out and he just said to me he
- 11:09Speaker 1: said it comes and goes and i have the image
- 11:13Speaker 1: of him i have the image of the hand signal
- 11:15Speaker 1: he did like perfectly in my brain And I think
- 11:19Speaker 1: I spent an amount of time being like, that was
- 11:21Speaker 1: such a bullshit response. But then I was like, no,
- 11:26Speaker 1: he's actually right. It literally does just come and go.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Whatever it is. This kind of tweaking out thing. He
- 11:39Speaker 1: knew me. Like, instantly. He comes and goes. You know,
- 11:51Speaker 1: I think some people need or enjoy and they kind
- 11:59Speaker 1: of talked about this in church too. Like they were
- 12:05Speaker 1: saying some people they quote get saved or they find
- 12:10Speaker 1: their salvation, they join the church, whatever. And then they
- 12:13Speaker 1: get kind of lost in the like saving other people thing.
- 12:17Speaker 1: Like they're like doing it really fast and they're like,
- 12:19Speaker 1: it's like a rush, or it's like a... you know,
- 12:23Speaker 1: they're taking it very seriously. And, you know, I come
- 12:30Speaker 1: from a different philosophical and ethical background where this is
- 12:34Speaker 1: not love. You know? My philosopher says love is not intervention.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Love is... at a distance. And that, you know, consumption
- 12:54Speaker 1: is different than love. And I see how love can
- 13:00Speaker 1: be intervention. I was speaking with a certain Joshua. You know, like,
- 13:10Speaker 1: if we think about political, geopolitical stuff, the United States,
- 13:16Speaker 1: they be intervening. in ways that, you know, I mean,
- 13:21Speaker 1: I hate to say allegedly, I, the thing is, is
- 13:23Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not there. I'm not there. It's
- 13:26Speaker 1: hard for me. I mean, yeah, we can believe them,
- 13:29Speaker 1: but it's like, I'd rather believe in something different if
- 13:31Speaker 1: I'm just honest. Politics cannot be number one. It really
- 13:38Speaker 1: cannot be number one for me. Um, it was, it
- 13:41Speaker 1: was for a long time. And I had like, Listen,
- 13:46Speaker 1: I had a lot of people. I had a lot
- 13:48Speaker 1: of recruits, okay? I had soldiers, but I didn't really have, like, friends,
- 13:53Speaker 1: to be honest. I had recruits. I was like a freaking...
- 13:59Speaker 1: I was a recruiter. I was like a recruiter for
- 14:01Speaker 1: the freaking army. I was like, you guys, we gotta...
- 14:05Speaker 1: You guys, we gotta... We gotta do politics. We gotta
- 14:10Speaker 1: go knock on doors. We gotta make calls. but I
- 14:20Speaker 1: didn't really have friends at that time sort of I
- 14:29Speaker 1: sort of kind of had friends but mostly I think
- 14:31Speaker 1: they liked what I could do for them you know
- 14:33Speaker 1: I could bring them to functions where food and water
- 14:36Speaker 1: and stuff was provided like I could bring them to
- 14:38Speaker 1: parties because I was just kind of connected with the
- 14:42Speaker 1: scene of political people you know They work hard and
- 14:49Speaker 1: they party hard as well. And... They'll do anything. They'll
- 14:58Speaker 1: do anything to keep the recruits. And so, I don't know.
- 15:03Speaker 1: I think there's different ways to intervene. I think about
- 15:05Speaker 1: good intervention, which is like when Canada and Mexico... When
- 15:09Speaker 1: they helped us during Hurricane Katrina and 9-11. And the
- 15:15Speaker 1: forest fires in California. Yeah. This is, like, good intervention.
- 15:19Speaker 1: This is, like, we have resources, we're your neighbors, we're
- 15:22Speaker 1: coming to help. I think there's other kinds of intervention
- 15:25Speaker 1: that maybe are not so good. Like, just starting revolutions
- 15:32Speaker 1: and converting everyone to your ideology because you're, like, scared
- 15:37Speaker 1: of some other ideology. And I don't know. I've read
- 15:45Speaker 1: some communist literature and... it was compelling. I gotta say,
- 15:50Speaker 1: it was really compelling. And I think if my neighbor
- 15:53Speaker 1: wants to be doing communism, you can do communism. Why not?
- 15:59Speaker 1: I think there's different kinds of communism. The communism I
- 16:01Speaker 1: read was anarcho-communism. This was very different. And I have
- 16:06Speaker 1: a friend that also read this book. I think they
- 16:09Speaker 1: recommended it to me. And they were like, well, the
- 16:11Speaker 1: problem is, what do you do with the people that
- 16:13Speaker 1: aren't obeying what do you do with those guys it
- 16:21Speaker 1: doesn't address that well I think it does address it
- 16:24Speaker 1: I think it says essentially send them away give them
- 16:28Speaker 1: to the next country and we've been doing that guys
- 16:33Speaker 1: we've literally been doing that this is like this is
- 16:35Speaker 1: Australia this is literally what Australia is it's just the
- 16:38Speaker 1: rejects and I don't know how Australia is doing they
- 16:43Speaker 1: might be doing better than us to be honest I
- 16:45Speaker 1: don't know what we're doing what are we doing guys
- 16:48Speaker 1: What the heck? I think... I think we got people
- 16:52Speaker 1: on the inside. This is what my church said the
- 16:54Speaker 1: first time. They said, we got people on the inside.
- 16:55Speaker 1: It's a slow process, but... You know. We got good people. Around.
- 17:04Speaker 1: And they're trying. And I appreciated that. It's like a combination...
- 17:18Speaker 1: It's a combination of faith and hope. Because on one
- 17:24Speaker 1: hand it's like... We know we have people. On the inside.
- 17:30Speaker 1: But it's also hope because... Yeah, it's a slow process.
- 17:34Speaker 1: There's only so much a single person can do. I
- 17:38Speaker 1: had my squishy. My friend gave me this squishy. This
- 17:41Speaker 1: Minecraft squishy. And it really helped me during church. It
- 17:46Speaker 1: honestly really reminds me, because I've worked with a lot
- 17:48Speaker 1: of kinds of dough. Like, pizza dough, croissant dough. For years.
- 17:56Speaker 1: And it's very much like that. It really helps me.
- 17:59Speaker 1: You know, when I was, like, balling dough for hours
- 18:02Speaker 1: a day, like, low-key, my hands were really sore. And
- 18:06Speaker 1: so this is, like, a nice training tool, I think.
- 18:10Speaker 1: To make my hands strong again. Um... Where am I going? Okay,
- 18:17Speaker 1: I'm doing my tires. I gotta do my tires. The
- 18:23Speaker 1: wheels on the bus go round and round. I got
- 18:28Speaker 1: my fluid situated. I'm feeling good about this. I'm feeling
- 18:36Speaker 1: good about it. I know what I need to do,
- 18:43Speaker 1: and I got my stuff really organized. I would say.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Got my stuff really organized. I just had an idea. Okay,
- 19:10Speaker 1: so I used to always have the fantasy as a
- 19:12Speaker 1: kid of like, I was like one day when I
- 19:14Speaker 1: have a car and I have money, I want to like.
- 19:19Speaker 1: I want to like find. An unhoused person. And like.
- 19:25Speaker 1: Turn their life around. You know. Like I want to
- 19:27Speaker 1: like buy them an outfit. And like feed them. And
- 19:32Speaker 1: take them where they need to go. You know. And
- 19:38Speaker 1: for some reason. I put this cardboard thing. In. I
- 19:43Speaker 1: have a sort of situation. Here. put this cardboard thing
- 19:47Speaker 1: and i was like i just i wonder what would
- 19:53Speaker 1: happen if i like kind of did the pan handler
- 19:57Speaker 1: thing if i just sort of sat somewhere with like
- 20:02Speaker 1: a cardboard sign Because technically, like, I mean, I kind
- 20:12Speaker 1: of have a home. I don't know, I've just... Okay,
- 20:25Speaker 1: this is gonna sound crazy, but... I feel like... When
- 20:29Speaker 1: I wasn't sleeping very good, I was praying a lot. And...
- 20:38Speaker 1: I kept seeing like, it was just every day. It's like,
- 20:42Speaker 1: I'm not sleeping very well. I'm praying a lot and
- 20:45Speaker 1: every day or like the next day. So I'd pray
- 20:49Speaker 1: for something specific, right? Or like I'd express gratitude for
- 20:53Speaker 1: something specific. And then the next day I would see
- 20:58Speaker 1: what I talked about in prayer, like pretty directly correlated
- 21:03Speaker 1: on a panhandler's like signs. For, like, multiple days in
- 21:10Speaker 1: a row, this happened. And... You know... The lady who
- 21:23Speaker 1: prayed over me today... She prayed for the homeless in
- 21:36Speaker 1: the area. And you know, I'm at an intersection where
- 21:40Speaker 1: usually there's a lot of them. They're kind of doing construction,
- 21:46Speaker 1: and there's not any today. But historically, there's usually a
- 21:49Speaker 1: lot here. So... I don't know what this means. But
- 21:59Speaker 1: it feels like a good sign. I really... Gosh... The
- 22:09Speaker 1: sermon was extremely good today. I got there pretty late,
- 22:15Speaker 1: if I'm honest. I got there pretty late. But I
- 22:22Speaker 1: was grateful because I feel like usually they do music
- 22:25Speaker 1: for a while in the beginning. And I do like
- 22:27Speaker 1: the music, but I was listening to my own music
- 22:31Speaker 1: on the way. And ultimately, I got there just in
- 22:34Speaker 1: time for a really good service. Alright, and now I'm
- 22:40Speaker 1: pulling into the car service place. We gotta service the
- 22:42Speaker 1: freaking car. I really hope somebody's even here. Um, I think,
- 22:48Speaker 1: I'm feeling three. I'm feeling three. Oh, wow. They are
- 22:52Speaker 1: not that expensive. Let's freaking go, guys. Alright. Gotta go. Bye.
