Transcript
- 0:00What is going on? Beautiful folks, beautiful
- 0:03people. Lee Hammock, your favorite
- 0:05diagnosed narcissist. Here, another live chat.
- 0:10Today we're talking about why you should not date when you are
- 0:13in a vulnerable state, when you are heartbroken, when you are
- 0:17feeling down, when you are freshly healing from a
- 0:22relationship. Doesn't have to be a toxic
- 0:24relationship. When you are freshly healing
- 0:27from a relationship, you should not be out here dating.
- 0:31Look, yeah, there is a reason. There's a good reason why people
- 0:37tell you to not date, to not not try to go.
- 0:40Don't go grocery shopping when you're hungry, right?
- 0:43They tell you straight up like, do not go grocery shopping out
- 0:46here when you are hungry because you'll buy things that you don't
- 0:51really want. You'll buy things that are
- 0:54unhealthy. You'll buy all the snacks and
- 0:57not the things that you actually need, right?
- 0:59Because that's how it typically goes when you go grocery
- 1:02shopping when you're hungry. You out there buying all kinds
- 1:06of BS that you probably going to regret eating later, right?
- 1:11So if you, if you don't go grocery shopping when you're
- 1:13hungry, don't date when you are heartbroken.
- 1:24I and look, I'm not telling y'all to not date at all.
- 1:28That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is do not go out
- 1:32here and date when you're vulnerable.
- 1:34Because as y'all might know, as most of y'all probably know,
- 1:39that narcissistic people tend to be like damn near heat seeking
- 1:44missiles for vulnerable people, for hurting impasse for people
- 1:50looking to heal. People that are out here, This
- 1:52is my first time out in a long time.
- 1:55Haven't been out on a dating. That's what that's what a lot of
- 2:07narcissistic people are dealing with.
- 2:09That's what they're doing. They're waiting for you to get
- 2:13out there and get get, they're picking you off.
- 2:17You're out there hurt and vulnerable and they can smell
- 2:20you. That you're healing, aren't you?
- 2:26You're healing. I can smell it.
- 2:29And then they pick you off. They get you.
- 2:32That's literally how it goes right there.
- 2:34They pick you off, they get you, and then they set you up.
- 2:38That's the way it goes. That's how the that's literally
- 2:42the mindset of a narcissist. That's how it works right there.
- 2:45They pick you off when you are trying to feel better, when
- 2:48you're out there looking to blow off steam, when y'all look you
- 2:52out there blowing off steam and you're sad and you're drinking a
- 2:55little bit and guess what? Here come little ugly.
- 2:58Here come a little ugly narcissist to pick you off,
- 3:01little ugly narcissist to snipe you.
- 3:04And then I get you. And because you're vulnerable,
- 3:08because you're in a vulnerable state, guess what ends up
- 3:11happening? You miss red flags.
- 3:14You just do. That's a yo, it's a natural
- 3:17occurrence to miss red flags when you're dating, when you're
- 3:20not ready. And I know that life can be born
- 3:24when you are here by yourself. You're like, man, damn this,
- 3:26this kind of boring man. I was like, I wish I had
- 3:29somebody. I wish I had you mean, or you'll
- 3:32have a, you'll have a friend out there that tells you, hey, the
- 3:36best way to get over somebody is to get underneath somebody else,
- 3:40which is horrible advice. That's the damn near the worst
- 3:43advice you can get from somebody right there to go out there and
- 3:46tell you the best way to heal is go sleep with somebody else
- 3:49because that's what ends up happening.
- 3:51You gonna go sleep with somebody else.
- 3:52You have the you gonna have your blinders on and then you'll get
- 3:55your heart broken again and then you'll be double healing from a
- 4:00from 2 relationship dynamics or two liars, 2 manipulators, 2
- 4:04horrible peoples and it was just me and it'll mess with your head
- 4:08right there. This what ends up happening.
- 4:09Look ugly. Narcissists look ugly, but
- 4:13that's what it goes on, man. They're like, tell us something.
- 4:15I I try to harp it into, I try to beat it into people's head.
- 4:18Stop dating these horrible ass people.
- 4:20When you like say you're not ready.
- 4:22It's OK. Yeah, in the crazy body.
- 4:23It's OK to not be ready. It absolutely is.
- 4:27It's OK to not be ready. That bothers some people.
- 4:31When I say that, it's just like, well, Lee, how do I know?
- 4:33See, that's not fair. They, they moved on.
- 4:35They're healing. They're doing it.
- 4:37They're doing it like, look, stop comparing.
- 4:39Look, comparison is the thief of joy, and it also hinders your
- 4:44healing. That's what comparison does.
- 4:47Comparison steals your joy and it also hinders your healing.
- 4:54That's what goes on right there, that when you compare the
- 4:56contrasting yourself to somebody else, guess what happens?
- 5:00You ruin yourself because you're worried about whatever everybody
- 5:03else is doing. So you're trying to compare
- 5:06yourself to a narcissist because they're out there doing their
- 5:09thing. They're out there doing whatever
- 5:11and you're comparing yourself to them.
- 5:13And guess what? It it ruins you.
- 5:15It sets you up for failure. It just does.
- 5:18It hinders you. You go out here, they move on
- 5:21quickly. So why don't I you go out here
- 5:23and move on quickly and then guess what ends up happening?
- 5:25You get your feelings hurt, you take you put the blinders on and
- 5:29you go out here and get manipulated by somebody that's
- 5:31not even trying to you get you get manipulated by a rookie
- 5:34manipulator. Somebody's not even good at
- 5:35manipulation. They get you, they catch you off
- 5:38guard because you're not ready for it, right?
- 5:41That's what ends up happening. You're welcome.
- 5:43Always happy to help. Always happy to help.
- 5:46That's what ends up happening in this space right there.
- 5:48We got to tell Bianca not to do. Let's scroll up.
- 5:54I'm literally starting back up a relationship with my ex-husband.
- 5:56I have to get out of a narcissist.
- 5:57I have to get out of a narcissist relationship.
- 6:00I don't know what's happening you you are starting a
- 6:02relationship with your ex-husband to get out of a
- 6:06relationship or to get over. I'm confused, but I'm confused
- 6:09by the premise of that. Is your ex-husband the Detoxi 1?
- 6:17It's like my ex-husband was waiting on this relationship.
- 6:19Oh, you were in another relationship and you No, no, no,
- 6:21hell no slow. You got to slow down.
- 6:23You can't hop on one one relationship into another one.
- 6:26That's not how it worked. Don't do that.
- 6:28I don't know even know the relationship dynamics, but I'm
- 6:30just I wouldn't do that. I wouldn't do that right there.
- 6:34Right. He said I just got out of a
- 6:36narcissistic relationship and in the last two weeks have started
- 6:39back up in an emotional relationship with exit.
- 6:40That's too, you know, that's too quick.
- 6:43That's too fast. You're about to set yourself up.
- 6:45You're you're you're you haven't healed from the narcissistic
- 6:48relationship. So he's your ex for a reason.
- 6:51I'm not saying that he's a horrible person, but that's your
- 6:54ex-husband for a reason, isn't it?
- 6:55Is it not? There's a reason that's your ex.
- 6:58I would just say slow down. I would say slow down.
- 7:01That's me. That's me, right?
- 7:03I would just say, hey, pump the brakes a little bit because
- 7:06you're about to set yourself up for failure right here.
- 7:08There. There's no benefit in moving,
- 7:09trying to move on so quickly, right?
- 7:12And sometimes when sometimes when you're hurting and when
- 7:15you're getting out of a narcissistic relationship, it's
- 7:17easy to go to what you know, right?
- 7:20You go to what you know. Well, I know my ex.
- 7:22I know what to expect. At least maybe I can get
- 7:24something out of this. No, no.
- 7:27That's how you set yourself up right there.
- 7:29That's literally how you set yourself up.
- 7:31That's how that's 100% how you set yourself up right there.
- 7:33You don't you, you don't want to get into that space right there
- 7:35where you're setting yourself up because you're lonely, right?
- 7:37If y'all just join the live from YouTube, make sure y'all hit the
- 7:40thumbs up button, hit the thumbs up, drop a comment.
- 7:42I'm gonna do AQ and a in a little bit y'all, I promise and
- 7:45whatnot. But yeah, don't do not date.
- 7:48We vulnerable, y'all, Because like when I say vulnerable, like
- 7:51it's vulnerability does not just mean healing from a touched
- 7:54relationship, right? Vulnerability could also mean,
- 7:57like I said, getting fired from a job, you're vulnerable, right?
- 8:05Periods of loneliness, like you didn't have to go be going
- 8:07through a breakup. You could just be lonely.
- 8:08That's vulnerable, right? You're balance in those in those
- 8:11hurt states. You, like I said, you can lose a
- 8:13family member, you can lose a pet.
- 8:15Those are those are also vulnerable situation.
- 8:17You're emotionally vulnerable. So when you're emotionally
- 8:19vulnerable, your boundaries are going to be lower.
- 8:22You had a you look, you had a 10 foot fence for boundaries, but
- 8:26now that you're vulnerable, it's 2 feet, it's 2 feet high.
- 8:30Things that could normally wouldn't, things that normally
- 8:32wouldn't be able to get over the boundaries or getting through
- 8:35because the boundaries have been lowered, right?
- 8:38And sometimes, like say any situation right here, because
- 8:40you're trying to heal and get your mind off and stuff, you're
- 8:43not even looking for a partner, right?
- 8:45You're looking you, sometimes you literally, you're just
- 8:47looking for somebody to rescue you.
- 8:51You're looking for a rescue, right?
- 8:54And guess what ends up happening?
- 8:55Hey, narcissist is the best hero.
- 8:57They love playing hero, they love it love playing hero.
- 9:01I'm here to save you and they set you up right there, right?
- 9:05That sets you up. That really does.
- 9:10Versus my narcissist ex keeps sending in guys to love by me
- 9:13and I found out later they connected to him.
- 9:15He won't stop. So mad I told the truth about
- 9:17him. Now he keeps coming back for
- 9:19avenge sending guys to love by me.
- 9:20That's weird. That's weird as hell.
- 9:23That's a weirdo behavior right there.
- 9:24That's crazy. That's super weird.
- 9:27Go love by my head. That's weird as hell right?
- 9:31But this is the thing right here y'all.
- 9:33By the time you start to heal and you're like your BS radar,
- 9:36your BS detector comes back online, you're already in a new
- 9:40toxic relationship. You've already before your
- 9:43before you start to be before your fence goes back from 2 feet
- 9:47to 10 feet. You already let in the monster
- 9:49the monster's already in. You don't build, you don't build
- 9:51the fence up and trapped it inside.
- 9:53Now that can't get out. Right Now he can't get out.
- 9:56You could. He could get out at first, but
- 9:58now he can't get out. Because now that you are
- 10:00healing, you sort of see this person for who they really are.
- 10:02Now you're in love with them. Now you pregnant by them or
- 10:05they're pregnant by you. Y'all living together?
- 10:08Y'all bought a house together, a car or something.
- 10:11Y'all are financially tied together now.
- 10:13Now it's too late. Now you got back-to-back to
- 10:16back-to-back narcissist like you got 3 peat you the, you the
- 10:19Lakers of two from old from 2000 to 2002.
- 10:22You the Lakers right now or is it the Bulls?
- 10:24One of them I think it was the Lakers, Kobe and little Kobe and
- 10:27Shaq. You, Kobe and Shaq right now
- 10:29you're a three peat of toxic relationships 'cause you haven't
- 10:31healed, you keep jumping into relationships, right?
- 10:34You got to take time because narcissistic people are perfect
- 10:37and love bombing you when you are trying to heal, when you're
- 10:41trying to feel better, right? Absolutely.
- 10:44They are excellent and love bombing you and whatnot.
- 10:46When you're trying to do this type of stuff to feel better
- 10:49about yourself and whatnot. That's what ends up happening
- 10:52because that that goes on. It really is.
- 10:55So you have to protect yourself and protect your peace in these
- 10:58situations scenarios because now you got to three, I say now you
- 11:00got to three peat. Now you do you're 3 peating,
- 11:04right? So you have to take some time
- 11:06and take time to heal. There's no shame in taking time
- 11:10to heal. So many people are just trying
- 11:12to rush to feel, trying to rush into something new like take
- 11:16time to heal. There's nothing wrong with that
- 11:19right? So many people just like I don't
- 11:21want to take time to heal. Then you going to end up in
- 11:23another toxic relationship you got.
- 11:24You have nobody blame but yourself.
- 11:26You'll be mad at the toxic person but you didn't take time
- 11:28to heal. Take your time man.
- 11:32I know it can be. I know it can be a frustrating
- 11:35dynamic to be a part of, but you can absolutely take your time to
- 11:39heal. Work on yourself, be able to
- 11:42trust yourself. Because if you can't trust
- 11:44yourself, what the hell are you doing out here dating?
- 11:47If you can't trust you, what are you doing?
- 11:51You What are you doing trying to date if you can't trust
- 11:54yourself? Got to think about it like that.
- 11:57You can't trust you, but you are trying to date.
- 12:01What they. Yeah, What, what, what do they
- 12:03even sound like right there? You can't even trust yourself.
- 12:06But you you already on a date. That's wow.
- 12:10That's wow, you know what I'm saying?
- 12:13And that's what ends up going on.
- 12:14And that's what ends up happening.
- 12:15You gotta take your time because if you don't, you end up said
- 12:19you would go through a setup. I promise you, you'll end up set
- 12:21up. You end up hurting and you'll be
- 12:23mad as hell. And then you go.
- 12:24It take long. Yeah.
- 12:25It takes longer to heal from A2 relationship than it does from
- 12:281:00. That you, you are.
- 12:31It takes a long time. You had it.
- 12:33It already takes a long time to heal from one.
- 12:35Imagine healing from two or three.
- 12:37Imagine healing from two or three, right.
- 12:41Imagine healing from 2:00 to 3:00 or two or three.
- 12:43Touch relationships back-to-back to back again.
- 12:46That's Kobe. That's Shaq.
- 12:48You're doing numbers right here. And that right there, I'm
- 12:51telling you, that's going to take a long ass time to heal
- 12:54from. You're going to be mad as hell
- 12:55at yourself. You're going to be pissed off.
- 12:58And then you're going to be directing that anger possibly
- 13:01towards the wrong person. Like your anger is going to
- 13:04look, the anger you have is going to go somewhere and it's
- 13:07going to be typically is going to be misdirected in some way,
- 13:12shape or form. So that's why it's important to
- 13:15take your time to heal, man. Like, do not date when you are
- 13:20vulnerable. It's not real.
- 13:22I'm just telling you it ain't rocket science.
- 13:25It ain't barely science at all. It's really just you.
- 13:27You know what I mean? It's barely science, science,
- 13:30silence science at all. It ain't talk straight.
- 13:33It's barely science at all, but it's science nonetheless.
- 13:36Otherwise, it's healing takes time out.
- 13:38It really does. Healing from narcissistic abuse
- 13:40for a toxic relationship, Absolutely.
- 13:42It's going to take more time, right?
- 13:44And like I said, if you, if you know there's things you can do
- 13:47to heal, check out my website, mentalillness.net for my
- 13:50courses, my own, like I said, my online courses, my support
- 13:54groups, all of that other good stuff is available at
- 13:56mentalillness.net. Just drop in the comment
- 13:58section, y'all. Yeah, if you have any questions,
- 14:03just drop your questions in the comment section.
- 14:04Drop your questions in the chat, y'all.
- 14:07What do you do when you live with your narcissist mother?
- 14:10It depends on how old this, this is kind of nuanced questions.
- 14:13I would need a little bit more detail, but I don't, I don't
- 14:17know how old you are, don't know the relationship dynamic.
- 14:18And it's like it might take a long time to kind of get
- 14:20through, but it really just depends.
- 14:22You always got to try to protect yourself and take care of
- 14:25yourself in these situations, right?
- 14:26Mother, father, whoever it is, you all, you absolutely have to
- 14:31take care of yourself because that's going to be an important
- 14:33piece of healing and trying to make yourself feel better
- 14:35overall in general. So that's going to be important.
- 14:39But also being able, trying to be able to set boundaries with a
- 14:42toxic parent is extremely tough in and of itself, right?
- 14:47That's going to be a very tough thing because they don't like
- 14:50boundaries to be set on them. They really, they really, really
- 14:53do not. They hate boundaries being set
- 14:55on them. They hate being told what to do
- 14:58because you are there. Like I said, you are they birth,
- 15:02they birth you, right? So they're going to be just
- 15:04like, well, I gave, I gave birth to you, so I don't need to tell,
- 15:08you know, you can't tell me what to do.
- 15:12So they'll say a whole bunch of BS to you.
- 15:14They really, really will. They really will.
- 15:17Can't even talk straight tonight, y'all.
- 15:18So it's important I have no boundaries.
- 15:22Well, you better. You better get some.
- 15:23You gonna have a bad life. You know what I'm saying?
- 15:26You're gonna have a bad life. You have a bad life.
- 15:30You bet. That's why I said any
- 15:31boundaries. Have been working on them piece
- 15:32by piece. Piece by piece.
- 15:35My ex, who I have a child with, be trying to make it look like
- 15:38we're happy family. Went around a crowd of people,
- 15:40but she's claiming she has one. I keep showing.
- 15:43I don't care. Keep showing what I feel like.
- 15:45Yeah. You got to document this type of
- 15:46stuff. She's saying type of stuff and
- 15:48trying to make you out to be the building and you got to document
- 15:49this stuff. Five years still vulnerable.
- 15:52We guys be wearing shoes so long.
- 15:53Take your time. I mean, like I said, 49.
- 15:56Oh yeah. So now you got to you got to re
- 15:58re evaluate things, make a plan. I had a guy sending dudes to
- 16:02love on the same situation. He won't leave me alone.
- 16:04He's blocked everywhere and always finds a way to check on
- 16:06me. That's again, that's weirdo.

- 17:56changed. Yeah, yeah.
- 17:57That that should be so fake, man.

- 18:44Don't be can't accept food in the church, people.
- 18:46I'm just telling y'all. The easiest, the easiest way to
- 18:49manipulate somebody is honestly just be just to fake the funk.
- 18:52Just to fake like you're just to fake like you're a Christian.
- 18:55That that's the yeah, the fake religion.
- 18:57That's the easiest way to manipulate somebody.
- 18:59I'm just keeping it real with you.
- 19:00It's so easy to emit it. It's because you ain't got to
- 19:03try hard. All you got to do is go step
- 19:05into a church and people automatically think you're a
- 19:07good person. It it's just so easy.
- 19:08It really is easy to manipulate church going folks.
- 19:11I'm not calling y'all dumb, but it's just like it's so easy to
- 19:13manipulate people like that because they fall for stuff like
- 19:16that all the time. They just it's it's easy.
- 19:19Aloha. They are sadistic.
- 19:22The real NASA narcissist. Yeah, I'm working.
- 19:24I'm work. I actually actually just had
- 19:25therapy today. I always say the devil knows
- 19:29scripture too. Also, Yeah.
- 19:31So for all my folks in New York, I'm thinking about having a New
- 19:35York. I'll be in New York City June
- 19:38the 1st through the 3rd. Y'all think people will come to
- 19:41a like a a small workshop or like meet up small Q&A?
- 19:45I'm do it. I might do a live in person Q&A
- 19:47in New York City on June the second.
- 19:50Yeah, I think people come to that.
- 19:51It's a Tuesday, it's a Tuesday, New York City.
- 19:54I'm considering doing 1. I got to actually got to hop on
- 19:57tomorrow and try to set it up. But New York City on a Tuesday
- 20:01afternoon, couple hours, few hours Q&A, just like Mike,
- 20:06everybody gets to ask a question or something like that.
- 20:08You know what I mean? Just Q&A.
- 20:09I'm thinking about doing that in New York City.
- 20:14People who believe in God don't go around doing listens.
- 20:16Yeah, they absolutely don't. Yeah, I believe it will work.
- 20:23Yeah. Religious narcs are absolutely
- 20:24the worst. Scripture says the devil can
- 20:27present himself as an Angel. Like, Yeah, it takes
- 20:28discernment. You know, I think a lot of
- 20:30people are especially nowadays, are lacking discernment because
- 20:33you don't people, not a lot of people not using their mind,
- 20:37They're not using their brains, right.
- 20:39You just. They're just.
- 20:40This is easy, man. I promise you.
- 20:43Can BPD also be an impact? I'm not sure.
- 20:45Yeah. I really don't know what an
- 20:46impact is. Yeah, honestly, it's just I
- 20:48heard impact and I just think high highly empathetic person so
- 20:52BBD people can have empathy. Just broke up with him feel
- 20:55happier, but still finding it hard saying hi from the UK.
- 20:58What's up Chicago, Detroit, I maybe maybe one day this year.
- 21:02I'm still working on I'm working on New York City and then I'll
- 21:05do probably do Atlanta, GA. I'm just start doing Q and AS I
- 21:09don't like to do the workshop where I'm just hey guys just how
- 21:11you leaving like I want to do Q and as and whatnot.
- 21:14Just live in person Q and as and then they'll help a lot of
- 21:17people. My ex who will constantly tell
- 21:19me I don't follow directions and everything is my fault.
- 21:22It's not overly religious of course taking the fun it's easy.
- 21:26The guy was a friend of mine who wanted more but continued to
- 21:28cross my boundaries so started to no contact and he's been
- 21:31calling me and sending me reels and videos.
- 21:33I don't open a response. You see people who don't respect
- 21:35your boundaries don't respect you.
- 21:37This is it's easier. I would be way worse than I am.
- 21:40Yay love to help, love to help Sounds great y'all so if y'all
- 21:46just join the live make sure y'all hit the thumbs up button.
- 21:47What now I'm about I'm about to be yeah I'm about to I'm about
- 21:50to be a it's about to be a huge content switch over on YouTube
- 21:54because not many people watching the videos the more people
- 21:56hardly click on them anymore now and stuff like that.
- 21:58I have over half a million followers and I get more views
- 22:01on my channel with 20K. So I'm about to be a it's about
- 22:03be a huge topic switch over here.
- 22:06I'm about to do, be doing more interviews and stuff like that
- 22:09because people don't just click on the regular videos no more,
- 22:11no matter how much time I put into them, no matter how the
- 22:13topic thumbnail, whatever, people just are not clicking.
- 22:15So I'm about to do a huge, huge, huge switch over here.
- 22:19Yeah, I'm just, I went to therapy today and talked about
- 22:21it. So it sounded like the channel's
- 22:23going backwards. I used to get more views when I
- 22:25had like way less so not. And I, I'm not even, you know,
- 22:29my energy is low doing it now because it's not helping.
- 22:31It's not reaching as many people as it's not helping as many
- 22:33people. So my energy's super low about
- 22:35just talking straight about narcissism now.
- 22:37So I'm about to start switching it up here in a little bit.
- 22:39See, I'm about to see a big topic switch over here.
- 22:42Energy and all kinds of stuff. A lot, a lot more energy, a lot
- 22:47more spunk. I would say like that.
- 22:51Maybe I do have to hop off this thing like say, make sure I hit
- 22:55the subscribe button if you haven't already.
- 22:56And I'm literally going to be posting different videos, story
- 22:59times and stuff like that. I might just talk to a more
- 23:01story times if you want to tell your story or Share your story.
- 23:04Like I say, I'm doing just straight up story times.
- 23:07So you can send your story to this, the e-mail address on the
- 23:10screen, info@mentalillness.net. You don't have to use your real
- 23:14name. Even if you send your real name,
- 23:15I'm going to switch your names anyway.
- 23:16I'm not going to use our real names and stuff.
- 23:18Send it to info.info@mentalillness.net.
- 23:22Because I'm, I, I recorded four story times the other day.
- 23:25So that's what I'm working on now.
- 23:26That's why I haven't seen a lot of videos.
- 23:28I'm just working on these story times and whatnot.
- 23:30And I'll start doing my podcast more as well.
- 23:32So y'all just stay tuned, y'all. I appreciate all the support so
- 23:35far. I've been robbing me for a long
- 23:37time. Quote the last one. 5-6 weeks of
- 23:41narcissist. Yeah, yeah, I want to be on the
- 23:43interview. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm going to say
- 23:45I feel like every, every YouTube channel you follow is going to
- 23:48Yeah, I don't know what it is, y'all.
- 23:49Nobody sees about stuff anymore. It's just like I shouldn't have
- 23:53500,000 followers and get 1000 views on the video.
- 23:56That don't even make sense, right?
- 23:58And I do that yeah. I have a channel with 1000 Yeah,
- 24:00I literally have a channel with 1000 Subs on it.
- 24:03I just do comedy stuff stuff and it gets more views than this
- 24:05one. 500,000 It's just something that's going on and I'm going to
- 24:08reset my whole channel. It wasn't I'm going to go
- 24:10through the I'm going to go through all the back office and
- 24:12just delete everything now because it's annoying.
- 24:15It's kind of depressing to y'all because honestly it's just
- 24:17depressing and I was like half a million people that followed me.
- 24:19Nobody's got 46 people on the live.
