- 2:17SPEAKER_02: But things have shifted around us.
- 2:23SPEAKER_04: There's some healing going on whenever whenever it rains.
- 2:27SPEAKER_04: Sometimes my emotions are sometimes I get like angry and I don't really know how to express my anger properly.
- 2:37SPEAKER_04: So it's like I let her out at the wrong time.
- 2:41SPEAKER_04: That's how I've been raised.
- 2:43SPEAKER_04: Like me and my father, that we don't really like we don't really talk about no emotional stuff.
- 2:49SPEAKER_04: I got like conditions to not like talk about how I feel.
- 2:55SPEAKER_04: And it's a little frustrating, but I gotta learn how to accept my father and the relationship that we have because I only have one father, and he's gonna get older, and I'm gonna get older, and I don't wanna have so much of a resentment toward towards the things that I can't control.
- 3:18SPEAKER_04: When I got older, he started to understand what I like because I started to open up a little bit more.
- 3:24SPEAKER_02: Tell me about fatherhood, what's that like?
- 3:27SPEAKER_00: Fatherhood is amazing.
- 3:28SPEAKER_00: All I can tell you is love it.
- 3:30SPEAKER_00: Remember that you were a kid once.
- 3:34SPEAKER_00: And try not to put your past turmoils on your children.
- 3:39SPEAKER_00: Like um, trying to figure out where your life navigated might not be the same for your children.
- 3:46SPEAKER_00: So try to let them take their own path and uh support them in any way possible.
- 3:51SPEAKER_00: Oh, you like that?
- 3:52SPEAKER_00: Alright, not too much.
- 3:54SPEAKER_00: Sorry.

- 3:57SPEAKER_05: When I first got my period, I texted my mom that I got my period and then she bought me like a bunch of pads.
- 4:05SPEAKER_05: And I think that was the first time my mom was like, I'm a mother to a daughter.
- 4:09SPEAKER_01: You want to look back on the cover.
- 4:13SPEAKER_02: You can you can shift ecologies with great disturbances, but also through small acts of planting and introducing and tending.
- 4:26SPEAKER_02: And both of these options are important and necessary in order to get from one ecology to another.
- 4:34SPEAKER_02: So I think of this as more of the small act of kindness and and change.
- 4:41SPEAKER_02: And thinking about it as a cycle of like we are just in this very immature phase.
- 4:48SPEAKER_02: And we once we're not.
- 4:50SPEAKER_02: And this is just like a temporary part where we're really fucking up and competing too much with one another.
- 4:57SPEAKER_02: But soon enough there will be humans and non-humans and future generations that will be able to benefit from what's left.
- 5:08SPEAKER_02: I think it's gonna be a really dark time for a while.
- 5:12SPEAKER_02: And I think the amount of suffering is going to increase before it decreases, but I wouldn't know that we're thinking about it.
- 5:20SPEAKER_02: Yeah, there'll be there'll be life at the end of all of this.
