- 0:01Speaker 1: All right. Here we are. It's our last day at
- 0:06Speaker 1: the farm. Last day at the farm, and my final
- 0:10Speaker 1: task is to paint something. So I'm pretty content to
- 0:19Speaker 1: do this. I finally memorized, like, I finally memorized... Because
- 0:36Speaker 1: in yoga, they say, like, the left and right side
- 0:41Speaker 1: of your body. Like, one's feminine, one's masculine. And... And
- 0:55Speaker 1: I keep... I've, like, looked it up so many times
- 0:57Speaker 1: lately because I just, for some reason, I, like, could
- 0:59Speaker 1: not commit it to my memory at all. And I
- 1:05Speaker 1: finally memorized it. I was at a traffic light and
- 1:08Speaker 1: I asked my phone. I got, because it was red,
- 1:14Speaker 1: the light was red. I was like, okay, I have
- 1:15Speaker 1: a second. And somehow it came up in my brain.
- 1:18Speaker 1: I was like, okay, I have a second. Looked it up.
- 1:22Speaker 1: And then it was like, I kind of had like
- 1:24Speaker 1: a visual of the cars in front of me. Like
- 1:28Speaker 1: one to the left and one to the right. And
- 1:33Speaker 1: the visual, I feel like now I have it memorized.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Because it was, like, two trucks in front of me.
- 1:41Speaker 1: And one of them had, like, a whole bunch of, like,
- 1:43Speaker 1: metal shelves on the right side. I was like, okay,
- 1:47Speaker 1: that's definitely masculine because this is just simply too many shelves. Like,
- 1:51Speaker 1: how much stuff do you need in your truck, guy? But,
- 1:56Speaker 1: you know, they're probably, like, doing, like, boy stuff. They're
- 2:00Speaker 1: probably doing boy stuff. And they probably have a lot
- 2:04Speaker 1: of tools or something in there. So now I have
- 2:07Speaker 1: it memorized. Right side is masculine. It involves a lot
- 2:12Speaker 1: of tools. And so it's interesting. I got pretty much
- 2:29Speaker 1: eaten alive this morning. See, I don't know what I
- 2:33Speaker 1: was thinking. You know, the guy here, the husband of
- 2:38Speaker 1: the owner, like, offered some of his, you know, mosquito
- 2:43Speaker 1: repellent that he made himself. And I put it on
- 2:47Speaker 1: my legs, but for some reason, I didn't put it
- 2:49Speaker 1: on my freaking feet. I didn't put it on my
- 2:53Speaker 1: freaking feet. And so now my right foot is just
- 2:58Speaker 1: absolutely covered in welts. Like, it's like, they were like, okay,
- 3:02Speaker 1: we can't have the legs because the leg has the
- 3:04Speaker 1: juice on it. It's scaring us. And so they all
- 3:07Speaker 1: just ate my right foot. And my right foot is, like,
- 3:11Speaker 1: just burning. It's absolutely burning. But, and, you know, I got, like, two.
- 3:19Speaker 1: I got, like, two on my left foot. So I'm
- 3:21Speaker 1: just thinking about it. I'm like, okay, so they're attacking
- 3:24Speaker 1: my masculine side. Symbolic. Everything is symbolic for me. Who
- 3:32Speaker 1: did I say that to? Oh. My friend. But yeah.
- 3:41Speaker 1: I love this place so much. I do. I like
- 3:54Speaker 1: sort of kind of not really got invited back to
- 3:56Speaker 1: New Orleans. This This person I met, I met him
- 4:03Speaker 1: and his brother, and we were just, like, being friendly,
- 4:06Speaker 1: you know, hanging out. And he was, like... He reached out. Which,
- 4:27Speaker 1: I thought, I sent him a bunch of fucking crazy
- 4:31Speaker 1: text messages, like, right after he hung up. Like, I
- 4:34Speaker 1: sent him, like, a wall, like, a wall of text
- 4:38Speaker 1: messages that were, like, probably objectively kind of insane. And
- 4:43Speaker 1: he never responded to it, but then all of a sudden, he, like,
- 4:46Speaker 1: hits me up, he's like, well, I think he just said, like,
- 4:49Speaker 1: how are you going, or how are you doing, or whatever,
- 4:51Speaker 1: and then, um, like I said, now I gotta let
- 4:54Speaker 1: this dry. Ow, I was sitting on a milk crate
- 5:03Speaker 1: and it hurted. I wonder if she has an extra
- 5:08Speaker 1: milk crate she would give me. I've been needing one.
- 5:12Speaker 1: I've been really, really needing one. I feel like this is, like,
- 5:19Speaker 1: the kind of thing you just, like, kind of... If
- 5:22Speaker 1: you see a big pile of them in a store,
- 5:24Speaker 1: you ask. Which, the thing is, is I worked at
- 5:27Speaker 1: a store that had... They had, like, hundreds of milk crates.
- 5:33Speaker 1: And they were freaking Nazis. They were, like... I just remember, like,
- 5:39Speaker 1: the owners, like, really fucking screaming and laying into someone
- 5:43Speaker 1: because they, like, asked. They asked if they could have
- 5:47Speaker 1: a milk crate. They were like, oh, you got a
- 5:49Speaker 1: lot of these. Can I have one? They were like, no! So, like,
- 5:53Speaker 1: now I'm, like, a little scared to even ask. But
- 5:58Speaker 1: I think I should probably just ask if I see
- 6:00Speaker 1: a place that has a lot. But then they also
- 6:02Speaker 1: have like the threatening labels on them. It'll be like,
- 6:07Speaker 1: it's like, this is the property of the milk company.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Violators will be prosecuted. It's like, it's a milk crate.
- 6:21Speaker 1: What are we doing? But yeah, I really want to
- 6:23Speaker 1: attach one to my bike so I can have a
- 6:26Speaker 1: little basket. I don't remember what I was saying. Oh,
- 6:31Speaker 1: this guy hit me up. This, like, guy I was
- 6:34Speaker 1: friendly with in New Orleans. I just, like, met him
- 6:36Speaker 1: at the bar. He, like, bought my dinner. He's like,
- 6:40Speaker 1: when are you coming to New Orleans? You know, I
- 6:42Speaker 1: had thought about going to see my friend. I had
- 6:45Speaker 1: hit up, like, my other friend. So one of my
- 6:48Speaker 1: friends is at a music festival. One of them is
- 6:50Speaker 1: not responding. And then this one hit me up. I
- 6:59Speaker 1: kind of assumed that I scared him away with my
- 7:01Speaker 1: wall of text that he didn't ever respond to. But
- 7:05Speaker 1: he hit me up. But it's just silly, because he's like...
- 7:13Speaker 1: Because I was like, yeah, it's kind of out of
- 7:15Speaker 1: the way. Like, you know, if I had a place
- 7:19Speaker 1: to say and someone to see, then, like... I would
- 7:23Speaker 1: do it, but it's just, like, out of the way. Otherwise...
- 7:27Speaker 1: And he was like, that makes sense. I have my kids,
- 7:30Speaker 1: so I... Let me read it again. I might have misunderstood. Yeah.
- 7:38Speaker 1: It's sort of like, I have my kids, so I can't.
- 7:44Speaker 1: It's funny. I had, like, a dream. Because all of
- 7:48Speaker 1: a sudden, he pops up on my Facebook recommended. You know?
- 7:56Speaker 1: And so... And don't get me wrong, he showed me
- 7:58Speaker 1: pictures of his kids when we were hanging out. But,
- 8:06Speaker 1: you know, I was just, like, kind of looking at
- 8:07Speaker 1: the pictures. I was like, oh. And then I, like,
- 8:09Speaker 1: had a dream that I was, like, with his kids.
- 8:16Speaker 1: They're really, really cute. He has three daughters. It's, like,
- 8:21Speaker 1: kind of the dream situation, I think. I mean, three
- 8:26Speaker 1: is kind of too many, I think. But... Yeah, and
- 8:33Speaker 1: then I had another dream. Which is funny, I, like,
- 8:37Speaker 1: prayed a couple nights ago. I was like, I'm ready.
- 8:44Speaker 1: Because there were... There was a long time in my
- 8:47Speaker 1: life where my dreams were extremely bad. And I was...
- 8:55Speaker 1: I mean, that's all you really need to know. There
- 8:56Speaker 1: was a long time in my life when my dreams
- 8:58Speaker 1: were extremely bad and disturbing. And, you know, the lady
- 9:01Speaker 1: here was telling me, because she has very vivid dreams,
- 9:04Speaker 1: and she was saying that, you know, and I think
- 9:10Speaker 1: she has, a lot of people I hear from, it
- 9:12Speaker 1: sounds like they have very, like, cartoonish kind of, like,
- 9:16Speaker 1: silly dreams. And I feel like this is not what
- 9:23Speaker 1: I have. Mine are very, very lifelike. It's very... And
- 9:29Speaker 1: it's probably because I don't really watch cartoons, honestly. Like,
- 9:32Speaker 1: I don't... I don't really engage with, like, animated content
- 9:38Speaker 1: all that much. I mean, like, sometimes, but... I don't
- 9:41Speaker 1: really like it, and it kind of bothers me. Like,
- 9:46Speaker 1: I definitely prefer, like, live-action stuff. Um... I don't know
- 9:54Speaker 1: why about it makes me like nauseous I think but
- 9:58Speaker 1: anyways I don't know she was describing some stuff in
- 10:00Speaker 1: her dreams and yeah, it just sounded like a kind
- 10:02Speaker 1: of morphing kind of cartoonish kind of situation, but mine
- 10:05Speaker 1: was very lifelike. And it just, I mean, it was,
- 10:12Speaker 1: I was lucid. I was fully lucid. Like, and I
- 10:15Speaker 1: could feel it. It was as if I was there.
- 10:20Speaker 1: And so I had prayed months ago. I was like,
- 10:24Speaker 1: I just never want to dream again. I was like, please, like,
- 10:27Speaker 1: I'll do anything. I'll do anything. Just please, like, you know.
- 10:33Speaker 1: And honestly, this has been a huge contributing factor into
- 10:38Speaker 1: why I don't get sober, I think. Or one of
- 10:45Speaker 1: the reasons why when I do get sober, I go
- 10:48Speaker 1: back to not being sober. is because my dreams are
- 10:52Speaker 1: extremely lifelike and vivid and lucid and kind of overwhelming.
- 11:05Speaker 1: And so, I mean, I had a beer last night
- 11:08Speaker 1: at the bar. And I think I don't really feel
- 11:13Speaker 1: like I have a problem with alcohol right now. I
- 11:16Speaker 1: definitely have at times in my life. Um, but yeah,
- 11:27Speaker 1: I did stop. I did stop all THC, which I
- 11:30Speaker 1: wasn't really doing much THC anyways. Like I smoke a
- 11:34Speaker 1: very little amount. It doesn't take much, you know, when
- 11:38Speaker 1: I was in college, I was like ripping the bong
- 11:39Speaker 1: like a dozen times a day, you know? So it's
- 11:42Speaker 1: like easy for me to be like, okay, well, it's
- 11:44Speaker 1: not that bad. And you know, I had this friend,
- 11:45Speaker 1: I always think about this and I wonder if this
- 11:47Speaker 1: was like maybe bad advice, but I had this friend
- 11:50Speaker 1: who I told him I was an addict and I
- 11:55Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I'm definitely an addict. Because he was, like,
- 11:57Speaker 1: a recovered addict from, like, heroin, right? And, like... He
- 12:03Speaker 1: was like, what do you mean? He's like, what do
- 12:05Speaker 1: you do? I was like, okay, well, I do, like, psychedelics, alcohol,
- 12:08Speaker 1: and weed. And he was like, this... He's like, you're
- 12:10Speaker 1: not an addict. These are not addict things. He was like,
- 12:13Speaker 1: talk to me when you've done heroin. And I was like, okay, okay.
- 12:19Speaker 1: So I just kind of always think about that. And...
- 12:23Speaker 1: you know, I think I was kind of hurt a little,
- 12:25Speaker 1: or I don't know, I was relieved and hurt simultaneously,
- 12:28Speaker 1: I was, like, relieved that, I was like, oh, great,
- 12:31Speaker 1: I can just keep doing this stuff, and it doesn't
- 12:33Speaker 1: freaking matter, because this freaking guy said I'm not an addict,
- 12:37Speaker 1: and I was hurt, because I was like, but I'm
- 12:39Speaker 1: kind of struggling, and I kind of wish I was
- 12:41Speaker 1: doing this, and, like, I think, you know, I thought
- 12:47Speaker 1: I was being pretty brave to be like, I'm an addict,
- 12:49Speaker 1: you know, and he was just kind of like, You're
- 12:53Speaker 1: not an addict. And I can see how I'm probably like.
- 13:05Speaker 1: A love or like sex addict. Perhaps like. I don't know.
- 13:09Speaker 1: I don't want to say that. And I don't want
- 13:11Speaker 1: to believe it. To be honest. But it could be true. Like.
- 13:15Speaker 1: I definitely think I have an abnormal approach. Like I'm
- 13:19Speaker 1: really not the kind of person to be like. Oh
- 13:22Speaker 1: I just went through a breakup. And now I want
- 13:24Speaker 1: to take time. To like rediscover myself. Like I'm usually like.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Oh I just went through a breakup. And like. Who's next?
- 13:32Speaker 1: Who's next? Bring him to me. Bring him to me.
- 13:37Speaker 1: And ultimately. I think it's kind of just. But you know.
- 13:42Speaker 1: I'm coming. I sort of have naturally. Come down. I prayed.
- 13:47Speaker 1: I prayed a lot for it. I prayed a lot.
- 13:50Speaker 1: Of like just. Lead me. Lead me wherever I'm supposed
- 13:53Speaker 1: to go. And so, I definitely feel changed in some
- 13:59Speaker 1: kind of way. Like... Okay, so, this is potentially TMI.
- 14:08Speaker 1: This is potentially TMI, but I'm gonna get it off
- 14:11Speaker 1: my chest. So, this girl... Who... I just don't like her.
- 14:18Speaker 1: I think she just kind of, like, really makes me, like,
- 14:20Speaker 1: physically ill to even, like, remember. Um... You know, and
- 14:29Speaker 1: she had, like, an extreme potty mouth, and she was
- 14:31Speaker 1: always just telling me shit that I didn't... Like, she
- 14:33Speaker 1: gave me a lot of images of, like, basically, like,
- 14:37Speaker 1: every sexual encounter she ever had, and also, like, every...
- 14:40Speaker 1: Not every, but, like, most... She talked to me a
- 14:43Speaker 1: lot about, like, her experiences masturbating... And also like all
- 14:48Speaker 1: the weird freaky shit she did sexually. And... Particularly the
- 14:56Speaker 1: masturbation stories have really stuck with me. In like a
- 15:00Speaker 1: pretty negative way. Because it's like... I used to pleasure
- 15:09Speaker 1: myself in that way. In this kind of particular way.
- 15:14Speaker 1: And then, you know, I got older. I got some money.
- 15:17Speaker 1: I sort of upgraded my toolbox. And, you know, it
- 15:30Speaker 1: was sort of like... So I kind of came to, like,
- 15:47Speaker 1: associate that technique with her. Because, I don't know, she
- 16:00Speaker 1: was telling me about it, and she was kind of
- 16:02Speaker 1: keeping me updated on, you know, different, I don't know.
- 16:08Speaker 1: She was telling me way too much, frankly. And giving
- 16:12Speaker 1: me way too many images. And.
- 16:20Speaker 1: So I associated it with her. And so in the fallout,
- 16:26Speaker 1: I was, like, afraid to, like... I don't know if
- 16:28Speaker 1: I was afraid. I just, like, didn't want.
- 16:34Speaker 1: I don't know. I was having some kind of difficulty. With, like,
- 16:38Speaker 1: the alternative technique because I associated it with her. And...
- 16:45Speaker 1: Which realistically, I think it's sort of like actually the
- 16:48Speaker 1: OG technique, if I'm just honest. And like the other
- 16:52Speaker 1: thing I was doing was probably like alternative. And I
- 17:03Speaker 1: don't know, that was pretty silly. And it's also what happened.
- 17:09Speaker 1: And so... Yeah, I was having some kind of block.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Like a major chakra block. Sort of because of my
- 17:36Speaker 2: not wanting to be anything like this person.
- 17:39Speaker 1: And you know, she's like 100% sober. doesn't want to
- 17:49Speaker 1: be friends with anybody who's not like just the epitome
- 17:55Speaker 1: of like weaponizing like therapy speak straight up in my
- 18:03Speaker 1: opinion it's just too militant it's just simply too militant
- 18:10Speaker 1: for me And so I don't know how that came up,
- 18:32Speaker 1: but you know, I made my, I found my way
- 18:34Speaker 1: back to the OG technique. Cause it was just like,
- 18:39Speaker 1: basically like, like the images she gave me in all
- 18:45Speaker 1: of her, like telling me way too much. Um, it's like,
- 18:50Speaker 1: if I ever tried the OG technique, it's like the
- 18:53Speaker 1: images she gave me was coming to mind. And it's like,
- 18:57Speaker 1: it was really just killing the mood in a pretty
- 19:00Speaker 1: big way. So yeah. I think that's all I have
- 19:17Speaker 1: on that. It's funny because there's so many other things
- 19:24Speaker 1: that I get from her. Like, yesterday I made, part
- 19:30Speaker 1: of my meal was, like, that I made for everybody
- 19:34Speaker 1: at the farm was kind of inspired by a meal,
- 19:38Speaker 1: I don't know if she had made it for me
- 19:39Speaker 1: or she had, like, taught me about it, I think.
- 19:42Speaker 1: I think she had made it near me, like, when
- 19:44Speaker 1: she was staying at my house, she had made it,
- 19:47Speaker 1: and she kind of, like, explained it to me while
- 19:49Speaker 1: she was making it so it's like there's other aspects
- 19:53Speaker 1: in which her influence is still with me you know
- 19:59Speaker 1: that doesn't bother me but I just think that one
- 20:02Speaker 1: particular one was like really kind of just haunting me
- 20:08Speaker 1: like I just I wish I didn't know all that
- 20:11Speaker 1: I really do. But I feel like something has changed. Like,
- 20:31Speaker 1: I'm pretty used to getting my way. And just because
- 20:36Speaker 1: I have doesn't mean that, like, I am always going
- 20:40Speaker 1: to I think that's what I'm realizing is, like, I
- 20:44Speaker 1: feel like I'm, like, kind of becoming, like, a normal
- 20:46Speaker 1: sort of-ish person of, like, because I think most people
- 20:49Speaker 1: don't usually get their way is kind of my understanding. Like,
- 20:56Speaker 1: most people, like, struggle a lot or something to get
- 21:02Speaker 1: what they want. And this is kind of, like, new
- 21:04Speaker 1: to me. This is kind of new to me. You're
- 21:11Speaker 1: like struggling to get what you want. But yeah, that's
- 21:18Speaker 1: what it is. That's what it is now. I'm an adult.
- 21:25Speaker 1: I'm an adult or something and I'm like struggling to
- 21:27Speaker 1: get what I want. My girlish glow has faded, it
- 21:33Speaker 1: would seem. It's hell on earth. To be heavenly. I
- 21:41Speaker 1: don't know. I'm kind of bummed out. I was like...
- 21:50Speaker 1: I mean, I guess it makes sense, like... Well, just
- 21:56Speaker 1: because I, like, had the dream or, like, vision of, like,
- 21:58Speaker 1: meeting the daughters. I was like, oh, that would be so, like, wholesome.
- 22:05Speaker 1: But it's probably also just a sign that, like... Because
- 22:08Speaker 1: I was thinking there's a job... which I plan to
- 22:12Speaker 1: apply to when I get back to town. They were, like,
- 22:14Speaker 1: applying in person. So there's a job I plan to
- 22:18Speaker 1: apply to at, like, some kind of daycare kind of situation. Um,
- 22:26Speaker 1: which then I was looking at, like, the employer reviews,
- 22:28Speaker 1: and it was like, this does not pay good. The director,
- 22:33Speaker 1: you know, saw it, and, like, those are not good enough.
- 22:40Speaker 1: I don't know it's just an option I've just been
- 22:41Speaker 1: like collecting job postings of I've just been collecting job
- 22:53Speaker 1: postings so that I can go and apply in person.
- 23:00Speaker 3: At places because honestly I think basically every time I've
- 23:05Speaker 3: ever done this like when I applied in person I
- 23:08Speaker 3: got the job like no questions asked.
- 23:14Speaker 1: Or maybe like some questions asked but usually they just
- 23:17Speaker 1: like kind of explain they're like this is what we're
- 23:18Speaker 1: looking for they're like are you down and i'm like
- 23:21Speaker 1: yeah and then it's like they're like okay come in
- 23:26Speaker 1: tomorrow and you know this is what my friend said
- 23:29Speaker 1: this was the advice my friend gave me weeks ago
- 23:31Speaker 1: she was like yeah you just gotta like print your
- 23:33Speaker 1: resume and go walk around and like go into places
- 23:36Speaker 1: that you like the vibe of basically So, yeah. I'm
- 23:43Speaker 1: trying to remember in my job search that... Because, yeah, like,
- 23:49Speaker 1: this was my mentality with my last partner. I was like,
- 23:53Speaker 1: it's not about if he likes me, it's about if
- 23:55Speaker 1: I like him. And I think it's the same with jobs. Like,
- 24:00Speaker 1: it's less about... Or, maybe not less, but, yeah, I'm
- 24:05Speaker 1: not really going to concern myself with, like, am I
- 24:08Speaker 1: a good candidate for them? But, like, are they good...
- 24:11Speaker 1: Are they a good home for me? Are these good
- 24:15Speaker 1: people to report to? I did some cold calls yesterday.
- 24:20Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. It was kind of exhilarating. Just a
- 24:24Speaker 1: little bit. There were some postings that were like, call
- 24:30Speaker 1: this number or send your resume here. I was like, yeah,
- 24:32Speaker 1: I'm going to call the number. Just feeling a little
- 24:35Speaker 1: like ready to talk to someone. And Yeah, both of
- 24:41Speaker 1: the jobs were, like, calls, or they were, like, positions
- 24:44Speaker 1: that require talking on the phone. So I was like, oh,
- 24:47Speaker 1: it probably looks good if I, like, prove just right away, like, yeah,
- 24:56Speaker 1: I know how to use the phone. I used to be.
- 25:08Speaker 1: I straight up used to be. because of the whole
- 25:15Speaker 1: situation when I called everybody and nobody freaking picked up,
- 25:19Speaker 1: and I really, really needed someone really bad. And then
- 25:24Speaker 1: after that, I was like, then I developed my whole
- 25:27Speaker 1: philosophical case about I don't actually have needs at all.
- 25:31Speaker 1: I don't even have needs. Needs aren't even real. Because, yeah,
- 25:36Speaker 1: I think I basically kind of really needed someone in
- 25:38Speaker 1: that moment, and nobody answered. You know, and did I
- 25:45Speaker 1: need them or could I use them? Could I use
- 25:48Speaker 1: some help? That's sort of the way I put it now.
- 25:50Speaker 1: It's like, it's not that I need help, but I
- 25:53Speaker 1: could use some help. But you know, this is sort
- 25:59Speaker 1: of like the demise of like the cool girl. See,
- 26:12Speaker 1: I shouldn't have I've done it like this. I kind
- 26:19Speaker 1: of messed this up. Right? Because the cool girl is
- 26:28Speaker 1: all like, I don't need anything. I'm just, I'm really cool.
- 26:37Speaker 1: You can't hurt me. I'm really, really cool. There's a
- 26:49Speaker 1: lot of theory on this. I sort of just ignore it.
- 26:52Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, y'all are just mad because you're not cool.
- 26:54Speaker 1: Just straight up. And that's probably fucked up that I
- 27:01Speaker 1: think that. But yeah, I think It's confusing. Because in
- 27:23Speaker 1: many ways, I do just feel, like, pretty adaptable and
- 27:26Speaker 1: flexible and open-minded. But ultimately, I don't think anybody has
- 27:33Speaker 1: ever matched my, like, game in this way. Like, I
- 27:36Speaker 1: don't think anybody has ever been, like, at least, like,
- 27:39Speaker 1: with dating partners. Like, I don't think anybody has ever
- 27:45Speaker 1: matched that. Like, being flexible and open and, like, kind
- 27:59Speaker 1: of chill. And so then there's, like, an imbalance. You know?
- 28:07Speaker 1: Because I'm being given all sorts of rules. And I'm
- 28:17Speaker 1: not really giving any rules. Because I just don't really
- 28:23Speaker 1: feel the need. And so eventually it's like I get
- 28:31Speaker 1: pretty resentful and bitter. Because I'm like, why am I
- 28:36Speaker 1: being oppressed? I'm not oppressing you, why are you oppressing me?
- 28:39Speaker 1: What the heck is this? And I think maybe I'm
- 29:03Speaker 1: coming around to be like, maybe it's not like oppression.
- 29:09Speaker 1: I don't know. It just sucks. It's like, I feel
- 29:13Speaker 1: like I, I have to change. It's always me that
- 29:17Speaker 1: has to change. It's always me that has to like
- 29:20Speaker 1: bend to someone's will. And so part of me is like,
- 29:26Speaker 1: maybe I can just be single forever. Maybe I can.
- 29:36Speaker 1: Maybe it would be literally better. But then I just,
- 29:53Speaker 1: I don't know. Because I know women like this. And, like,
- 30:05Speaker 1: have any kind of ill will towards them but they
- 30:07Speaker 1: just seem like they're like workaholics like they just seem
- 30:12Speaker 1: like they're just doing so much and you know the
- 30:29Speaker 1: easy interpretation would be like well something's missing yeah they're
- 30:32Speaker 1: supposed to like have a partner or something And I
- 30:35Speaker 1: would never, like, I would never want to, like, shame
- 30:38Speaker 1: someone because they don't have a partner. I think that's
- 30:45Speaker 1: definitely not my intention. But yeah, I guess I just
- 30:52Speaker 1: probably need to, like, be the version of single that
- 31:01Speaker 1: I would want to be. I'm like this is my
- 31:32Speaker 1: final thought I'm like super proud of my yoga practice
- 31:39Speaker 1: like the past couple like yoga classes I've been to
- 31:43Speaker 1: you know I just feel completely free you know if
- 31:56Speaker 1: something's like if I don't want to do something I
- 31:58Speaker 1: just don't This is what pisses me off about people.
- 32:05Speaker 1: When they're like, I can't keep up in the yoga class.
- 32:13Speaker 1: It's like, it's not about keeping up. I think you
- 32:18Speaker 1: don't have to do anything you don't want to do.
- 32:20Speaker 1: It's like kind of the whole point. It's a suggestion.
- 32:24Speaker 1: Everything is a suggestion. It's like kind of the one
- 32:32Speaker 1: environment in life where it's just a suggestion. Maybe every
- 32:41Speaker 1: environment in life is like that. You know, I had
- 32:44Speaker 1: my ex-friend, you know, she's like sending me... She was.
- 32:52Speaker 1: I think she's effectively gone now. God, I just fucking hope. God,
- 32:58Speaker 1: I just fucking hope. But... she was saying she's like
- 33:01Speaker 1: it's like you take my you take everything i say
- 33:05Speaker 1: as like a command and it's like yeah because you
- 33:13Speaker 1: were straight up like dude we learned this in english
- 33:16Speaker 1: class and she didn't because she's fucking homeschooled like this
- 33:21Speaker 1: bitch doesn't know shit about like english bro there's like
- 33:27Speaker 1: three kinds of statements maybe four there's like interrogative, declarative,
- 33:38Speaker 1: and the third one, which is like a command. I
- 33:44Speaker 1: don't remember what it's called, unfortunately. I'm finger painting now. Um, and,
- 34:16Speaker 1: it's like, you're, you're, you are giving me a command.
- 34:20Speaker 1: You're not making statements. A statement would be like, and
- 34:27Speaker 1: this is the thing, this is the fundamental thing, is like,
- 34:31Speaker 1: what she should have, not should have, but, she could
- 34:36Speaker 1: have said, like, I prefer or I will only tolerate
- 34:40Speaker 1: to be around a person who communicates like this that
- 34:44Speaker 1: that is a declaration that is not a command that's
- 34:49Speaker 1: a declaration but instead what she said is like you
- 34:57Speaker 1: gotta like she was telling me to communicate in a
- 35:01Speaker 1: certain way and so I did and then that was
- 35:06Speaker 1: the end of everything Because it's like, yeah, now I'm
- 35:08Speaker 1: no longer being myself. Like, myself is not welcome here. Or, like,
- 35:13Speaker 1: I could have kept doing what I wanted to do,
- 35:15Speaker 1: but it's like she asked me a million times to
- 35:16Speaker 1: be different. And so finally I was like, whatever, I'll
- 35:20Speaker 1: be the shitty thing that you want me to be.
- 35:21Speaker 1: And then I just fucking hated myself. And then she
- 35:27Speaker 1: also didn't like it. It's like, oh, maybe don't ask
- 35:30Speaker 1: people to change if you, you know, like the way
- 35:33Speaker 1: they are. I don't think she liked the way I am.
- 35:36Speaker 1: I think it's just so funny. She, like, won't admit.
- 35:39Speaker 1: She just, like, won't admit that she doesn't like me.
- 35:41Speaker 1: She won't admit that I make her uncomfortable and that
- 35:42Speaker 1: she doesn't like me. I'll admit it. I'll admit it.
- 35:46Speaker 1: I don't like her. I think she's made me extremely uncomfortable.
- 35:51Speaker 1: And the thing is, is I know I made her uncomfortable.
- 35:53Speaker 1: I think it took her eight years to realize that
- 35:55Speaker 1: I made her uncomfortable the entire time. Because eventually she
- 35:59Speaker 1: was like, oh, yeah, it did make me uncomfortable and whatever. Whatever.
- 36:05Speaker 1: And it basically took me telling her that, like, the
- 36:07Speaker 1: way she communicates makes me uncomfortable. But, and I was like,
- 36:13Speaker 1: this has always made me uncomfortable. I'm just, like, a
- 36:16Speaker 1: little more resilient than you at, like, bearing discomfort, it
- 36:19Speaker 1: would seem. And she was like, and then she, like,
- 36:24Speaker 1: thought about it for a day. And she's like, you know,
- 36:26Speaker 1: now that I think about it, now that I, like,
- 36:29Speaker 1: consider that, like, feelings exist and, like, comfort, like, is
- 36:33Speaker 1: a thing that you can kind of, like, qualitatively assess
- 36:37Speaker 1: within yourself like now i understand that i was also
- 36:40Speaker 1: uncomfortable the whole time it's like this like you're stupid
- 36:44Speaker 1: like you're actually stupid i don't know what to tell
- 36:47Speaker 1: you with peace and love not only are you wrong
- 36:53Speaker 1: you're stupid and that's the hill i'm dying on so
- 36:58Speaker 1: i don't know this was all over the place but
- 37:03Speaker 1: I'm glad. I'm glad she's gone. It's funny, she was
- 37:08Speaker 1: like repeating her final kind of email to me was like,
- 37:15Speaker 1: it was something I wrote in a poem, which I
- 37:19Speaker 1: don't know if she read. I have no idea. I
- 37:20Speaker 1: don't care. I wouldn't know. She was like, my willingness
- 37:30Speaker 1: to stay when you're treating me this, like, spitefully, like,
- 37:34Speaker 1: I've realized it's, like, a form of, like, self-harm. Self-flagellation,
- 37:38Speaker 1: that's the word she used. Flagellation is the word I
- 37:41Speaker 1: used in my poem. I don't even know what the
- 37:44Speaker 1: fuck it was about, to be honest. And I was like,
- 37:49Speaker 1: I'm just like, duh, bitch, like, I've been being mean
- 37:53Speaker 1: to you, hoping you'll leave me the fuck alone. This
- 37:56Speaker 1: is my problem. This is my problem. It's like, People
- 37:59Speaker 1: won't leave me alone. Dudes won't let me break up
- 38:03Speaker 1: with them. Girls are, like, just, like, begging to understand.
- 38:08Speaker 1: It's like, leave me alone. Because there's a point when
- 38:14Speaker 1: I'm just done. It's like, do you have any self-respect
- 38:18Speaker 1: at all? Do you have any self-respect at all? Because
- 38:28Speaker 1: I think I'm, like, pretty... I'm usually pretty aware from
- 38:33Speaker 1: the beginning of the difficulties of a relationship. And I
- 38:41Speaker 1: sort of have always understood that, like, any relationship is, like,
- 38:44Speaker 1: a little difficult. And maybe the tide is kind of
- 38:52Speaker 1: shifting on this, actually. For me. I think the tide
- 39:00Speaker 1: might be shifting a little bit. Because now I feel
- 39:10Speaker 1: like I'm finding relationships that like really aren't difficult. And
- 39:14Speaker 1: it's like, what have I been doing this whole time?
- 39:32Speaker 1: What have I been doing this whole time? I thought
- 39:53Speaker 1: relationships were literally supposed to be hard. I mean, my
- 39:58Speaker 1: family is pretty, like, difficult to bear sometimes. They're funny.
- 40:05Speaker 1: They're funny. Goofy ha ha. But if you're like an
- 40:09Speaker 1: emotional being in my family, it's like pretty hard. Because
- 40:13Speaker 1: they just literally want to like medicate you and put
- 40:16Speaker 1: you in a psych ward. Because they're like, oh, you're
- 40:18Speaker 1: ruining our goofy ha ha. You're ruining our goofy ha
- 40:21Speaker 1: ha and we just want to get rid of you.
- 40:25Speaker 1: And you're like killing our biblical swag or whatever. They're like, oh,
- 40:29Speaker 1: you want to kill yourself? That's actually immoral. That's actually
- 40:33Speaker 1: extremely selfish, and you should feel immense shame for even
- 40:36Speaker 1: having the thought. Hi. Hi. How's it going? Pretty good.
- 40:52Speaker 1: I'm not done, but I'm going to let it dry
- 40:53Speaker 1: and then check me. Hi. Hi. I love your purple. Oh,
- 40:57Speaker 1: my gosh. She's working on a sign for us before
- 41:02Speaker 1: she leaves. Good morning. Good morning. Hi, Mark. Hi, Mark.
- 41:15Speaker 1: How are you? Safe. Safe? Okay. Thank you. Yeah. You too. Anyways, bye.
