Is This How It Ends?

Human Clones and Unhinged Politicians: Welcome to the Weird New World

AI Art Season 1 Episode 9

In this week’s episode of Is This How it Ends, we discuss the newish US Government agency, ARPA (Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health), and their unsettling new mission to extend human life by swapping out your brain bit by bit with lab-grown tissue (because apparently, the key to immortality is slowly turning into a science experiment). Could this be the future? Or just a new way for the rich to hold onto power forever? 

We also break down the chaotic presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, where Trump melted down (again). 

And in the world of scandal, Shannon Sharpe’s accidental IG Live makes for some cringeworthy commentary, while Taylor Swift’s political endorsement has Republicans spiraling. 

We’re breaking down everything from geriatric sex tapes to the future of human evolution. Join us on Is This How it Ends, where Earth is the ghetto, and brain swaps might be your ticket to eternity.

Nele:

Thank you, hello y'all, I'm Nell, I'm so and welcome to our podcast. Is this how it Ends? Where we talk about everything from conspiracy theories to politics, to aliens, shady astrology and everything else. It's girl talk with a twist that you don't want to miss, so let's get into it. So there is so much to talk about and for our segment, normal-ish I didn't know what to choose from. A lot has happened since our last podcast. A lot of like crazy stuff like, um, school shootings, um, to the not so serious, kendrick lamar released another song, dropped it on us. Just a lot of stuff that's happened. I didn't know what to talk about, but you know. So I lean towards ignorance and I care about the stuff that I know you don't care about, but that's what I'm going to share, okay, so Shannon Sharp Tom.

Nele:

On September 11th, the host of a club, shay Shay, became the topic of his own controversy after a video surfaced from instagram live of him appearing to have sex. Now, look at here. Okay, I want to give no shout outs to javi, who sent me this video. Okay, I was on my way home from working for the man and I see this like video. He sends it to me from the twitter, okay, or x, and so I don't know what I'm listening to exactly. It sounded like a bear having intercourse with a woodland creature. It was just very disturbing. I was like what is this?

Soph:

did you see anything? I have to say I have. I've heard about it. I haven't seen whatever's circulating, because I'm just like.

Nele:

You don't see anything per se. It's like he has it on. I don't know if it's facing like the floor or something, but you hear the sound effects. You hear the sound effects. It's just so fake. At one point you hear the sound effects. It's just so fake. At one point you hear the woman say oh, this is so good, this was staged okay. So let me get back to the story.

Nele:

He initially claimed his page was hacked in a post in delete that read beware, at ShannonSharp84. Instagram was hacked this morning. My team and I are working vigorously to figure this out. This makes no sense. Okay, this makes no sense whatsoever, because there's a process when you post things when you go live, I think they even ask you are you sure you want to go go live? And you just happen to go live having sex with a woman. So later that evening he intentionally hopped on live to confess that he wasn't hacked and was embarrassed by the ordeal. He said I threw my phone on the bed, engaged in an activity. I did not know I was IG Live. I never turned IG Live on, I don't know how it works and all of a sudden my other phone started going off. My phone wasn't hacked. It wasn't a prank. It was me being a healthy, active male. Now there's some theories as to why this happened. Um, there have been questions about shannon shark's um sexuality, and so he thought let me just reveal this video of me having sex with a woman.

Soph:

Who said oh, I don't know more like questions about. I mean, I've seen people who make fun of him like coming out of cars and it's like big old it was real.

Nele:

It was real extra medium girl, that outfit coming out, the car was real I mean, but that doesn't make someone, you know not at all. But nowadays, even having sex with a woman on the video doesn't make you straight either, honestly.

Soph:

Well, you threw your phone on the bed and it was just, it, just popped over to IG Live.

Nele:

What did you think was going to happen? I don't know, but it just seems real pathetic to me, and I don't know if it's a testament to just like him being made fun of so bad that he felt the need to do this. Like you're successful, you've been able to revive your career. Has it been that bad? I mean, it could have been a fireable offense, but he didn't get fired from ESPN, so that's good. But he has a podcast with Chad Ochocinco and Chad's ashy ass had the nerve to be like oh you know, just seeing that, I just can't believe you, unk, I can't believe you would do that. Meanwhile, he's a whole degenerate with babies just going in and out giving headbutts to women.

Soph:

Evelyn Lozada Like sir compared to what you're doing ignorance. Who is Chad?

Nele:

Chad Ochocinco. So he was a football player, he dated that basketball wife or he was engaged to Evelyn Lozada, okay okay, this is why he's just, his whole life is just ashy. Just, he's just so ashy, literally and figuratively. But for him to be like oh, I'm just so shocked, I'm just appalled at your behavior, like Shannon Sharp, if this just happens to cross your path, just know, sir, you do not need to do that. You're at an age where do what you want and if you like men, then you like men.

Nele:

But to basically use a woman to prove your point that you it makes you seem more gay, sir. It just it's just not helping your point. And who are you proving this to? Are these people paying your bills?

Soph:

they're still gonna watch you, whether they think you're gay or not, like I just want my point like I don't care what you think of me self. Are you kidding me? I'd be like Lil Nas out here.

Nele:

He trolls people on purpose. Okay, but I had enough money. I would not care what I would pay people, just to ignore them. Come to my house, come right in front of me, let me just ignore your ass. It wouldn't matter to me, I'm still rich. Leave me alone. To my house, come right in front of me, let me just ignore your ass. All right, like just I would. It wouldn't matter to me, I'm still rich. Leave me alone. But we're human and the male ego is fragile. So, shannon, you ain't got to do all of this. Sir, wear your tight. Wear your tight stuff. Wear your colorful stuff. That's it for normal. Ish for me. So do you have a new story, girl?

Soph:

my stuff is adult stuff, okay, oh right, we talk about. You know, as you get older, you don't care about what people think. You know, you got all this money. So I want to talk about, um, I want to talk about aging, aging and aging. You know, getting, oh, aging, oh, aging, okay, older. So I I love coming across these articles that, like either one, scared the shit out of me and at the same time, you know, it makes me really excited for our future as human robot hybrids. You know, that's where we're heading.

Soph:

So, nels, if you had the ability to live like, beyond what you know humans live, right, I think you know 100, sometimes over 100, but without your body falling apart, you know, would you take it? Yeah, yeah, right, yeah. So I think most people would say, yes, aging is, you know, aging is a fact of life. I'm 40 plus and I notice certain things. My eyes are like officially up, right, I need it for the computer, I need it to see things, but despite these prescriptions, like, if I need to, like, read something on a bottle, I got to take them off.

Soph:

You know, I need subtitles for the television, me too, and it's just, and I'm only 40. I can imagine, you know, as you get older, you know medical issues become more severe or you lose mobility. That's one of my fears, right, as you get older, there's just you need more help and you might become a burden on somebody, and it's just, you see it, and it's like, oh my God, like I don't want this. And you know, and it's when it comes to, like outwardly right, the beauty industry.

Nele:

it's a booming business, billion dollar business, to come up with anti-aging solutions like serums injections to come up with anti-aging solutions like serums injections, anti-wrinkle remedies body augmentation is big business, hey look if I had the nerve, I'd give me a BBL, right.

Soph:

And you have celebrities like Angela Bassett, like the way that woman looks younger than my age yeah, you know, I mean black, don't cry. But you know that money, that money helps a lot, you know it helps. You know, fill in the seams and stuff, so. But ultimately though, no matter what you do, it's going to catch up with you. No amount of surgery, no amount of coffee serum is going to help, right. And you know, no matter how young you look, the brain deteriorates. So who cares if you look like you're 30 at 100 when you don't have the cognitive functions to realize it or you can't even move? So it doesn't really matter, right.

Nele:

Yeah.

Soph:

But news, depending on your views, the government is looking into this. I recently came across an article. So the US government has a new agency. It was created under Biden early on in his administration and it's called ARPA-H it's Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health. Now, this agency was created to tackle some of the most ambitious and high-risk health challenges. Was created to tackle some of the most ambitious and high-risk health challenges. It was Biden's vision for driving bold, urgent innovation in health. So it sounds pretty awesome, right, you know, think about finding solutions to those really tough health problems Curing cancer that's a big one Treating Alzheimer's and even developing new ways to extend human life and even developing new ways to extend human life. So that's the one I'm going to focus on.

Soph:

But tangent, tangent but related DARPA is modeled after DARPA. Darpa is Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. It's an agency of the US Department of Defense responsible for the development of emerging technologies for military use. Darpa is scary. If you ever go on a deep dive and just read articles, watch documentaries, they're into some stuff that will give you nightmares in terms of what the military is doing and what they're capable of doing. And they invest just some examples right, they invest heavily in bioengineering and gene editing research, including projects focused on creating genetically modified organisms or enhanced biological agents for use in warfare. So projects like the Insect Allies, which aim to genetically modify insects to deliver viruses to plants, this is where my government dollars are going. Modify insects to deliver to plants what?

Soph:

This is where my government dollars are going this is where it's going and this is why you have crazy people out there thinking birds ain't real. I mean See.

Nele:

Nuh-uh, nuh-uh. I was just talking to someone about how much taxes are taken out of my check. Okay, and it's going to stuff like this yeah, and then I mean DARPA is out.

Soph:

And then another thing so they're a leader in brain machine interface technology. So this is technology that allows machines to be controlled by the brain. They're saying it's aimed at soldiers and veterans with disabilities or PTSD, but people are concerned that you know the potential for misuse in areas like mind control, cognitive surveillance or super soldiers. And if you research DARPA, they're into all this shit, so that that that concern is warranted and anything you think they could probably be doing with this. They are and they have access to tech that we can't even fathom, like GPS and the internet. They had those decades before we were even aware, okay.

Nele:

So even where I work with students, I've seen their projects, their end of year projects, where they have like these I don't call them machines these installations where they're being controlled by like brainwaves and I'm just like this is, this is scary, and these are just. These are just the babies. So imagine what's happening on like the government level I mean, these are just the babies.

Soph:

But like schools, this is where that stuff starts. They start experimenting and looking at things and then the government comes and be like what you working on you know, so I just think it's interesting that you have ARPA, which is I think it's the civilian version of DARPA. Darpa is focused on world domination, but ARPA is focused on the health of Americans Very wholesome, I guess. And ARPA has a budget of 1.5 billion. Like can we just get free health care?

Nele:

but then seniors are still struggling. It's only recently, you know, under biden they can get affordable medication. But you're putting this in. It's kind of interesting that opera kind of sounds like aarp, like arp, you know yeah yeah, but seniors need stuff now. We need it now.

Soph:

Or just, or just split the cost and give us, just give us half of that money and reduce health care. Like I have health insurance and I go to the doctor and they send me bills. What am I paying all this money for? Yeah, yeah, but I digress. So this new department is focused on all of this. But you know, I just want to. I want to focus on the aging thing.

Soph:

So they hired a researcher called Jean Hebet it's not Herbert, it's like H-E-B-E-T, I can't say it. He's a biologist at the Albert Einstein School of Medicine and he is interested in defeating death by replacing your body, including your brain, little by little, and what that would entail. So like slowly swap out bits of your brain with lab-grown youthful tissue, ensuring your memories and your units stay intact. So I mean, the idea makes sense, right If you think about it like we have liver transplants, we have hip replacements. Makes sense right If you think about it like we have liver transplants, we have hip replacements, artificial corneas and, you know, substitute for heart valves. We're raising pigs've spent decades genetically altering pigs to make their organs more suitable for human use. So story for another day.

Nele:

So, okay, this is how my brain is working a little bit. I just find this is interesting that there's a study about swapping out youthful for older, when a main issue was about the aging of the presidents right, and their cognitive function right, and as these people that are in government right now, they're getting old, they're aging out right. They're wanting to hold on to power right, but as much as you want to hold on, you're getting older. Your cognitive function declines, like nothing you can do about it, right, look what happened to Biden. And so I definitely think that this development is going to assist with keeping these old-ass people in government to hold on to the old ways absolutely, and this is biden's plan, right and biden, we know he's had, he knows he's old.

Nele:

This is for the old, melanin deficient men that still want to be in power, because they're seeing what's happening in the world, you can only hold on. But for so long, exactly? Say we're just waiting for all the races to die off. That's what she said, like what who's? Waiting for the races to die off. Like oprah says something to that extent just in terms of like eventually, like all this, like racist rhetoric, like just going with these old people, which is not true but we pass it on to their kids.

Soph:

Yeah, it's basically embedded in their dna.

Nele:

You run across young people I mean yeah, it just takes on different forms, the racism it evolves.

Soph:

Yeah, exactly so. But yeah, so that's what they're looking into right now. But when you think about, like, replacement kidneys, replacement heart valves, hips and all that, these are different from the brain, so and we can't swap out the brain. So that's why they're looking at what the way they're looking at it, right Ways to progressively replace the brain by adding bits of those, those useful tissues. The process would have to be done slowly enough, in steps, that your brain could adapt, cause if you do it too quickly, who knows what. So it has to be like sort of like, like when you introduce something and you just kind of wait for it to, um, you know mesh and everything, and then you repeat the process and what they're doing is um, this guy, he's been carrying out experiments with mice, removing small sections of their brain and injecting slurries of embryonic cells, step towards providing whether such youthful tissue can survive and take over important functions and eventually he's going to move on to monkeys and other larger animals. This portion this cost about for now it's 110 million, that's what he received for this project.

Soph:

But when we think about it, the brain is not the only thing that deteriorates. Right, we could have a solid brain, but everything else. Our infrastructure deteriorates, cells, organs, even transplants can't yeah, so he has ties to this. It's a group called the Longevity Biotech Fellowship, lbf. They're a self-described group of hardcore life extension enthusiasts which this year published a technical roadmap for defeating aging altogether. And if they use data from herbert's arpa age proposal to argue in favor of extending life with gradual brain replacement for elderly subjects, as well as transplant of their heads unto the bodies of non-sentient human no, no, no, absolutely not, no, no.

Nele:

They raise these you know their lack of functioning brain.

Soph:

So they're calling it body transplant. You know the technology does not yet exist, including a means to attach, you know, the head to this, because the spinal cord is key. So, but even so, this group thinks that this group thinks that it's likely to happen. It would take about 10 years and maybe $3.6 billion to demonstrate so many questions. First of all, how does one go about growing these non-sentient human clones? Cloning is a thing. Cloning is a thing, let's be clear. It's happening, you know, mostly with animals, we're assuming, but it is a thing. And the ethical issues, like can you imagine a world where there are department stores with these? You know like? Or you can search Amazon for non-sentient clone with ripped abs and a fat ass, like. That's where we're heading, you know? I don't know. Did you see writing? You know I don't know. Did you see um? Have you seen?

Soph:

There's a show on netflix called altered carbon, so it's based on a book of this by the same name by richard k morgan. What can transfer their consciousness into new bodies? Right? Essentially a form of immortality making? Um, yeah, so in in the, the people who are thriving, right, they're like the super rich, while everyone else is just like fighting for scraps, which is we know that's how this is going to go. Yeah, I mean, if you read the article, it's, it's in. It's an article in MIT tech review. All of this information, that's where I got it. Um, the idea sounds well. The man sounds like a mad scientist, like a frankenstein. Um, he's popular among immortalists, which is a french community devoted to never dying. Um, and that's because he's established himself as a scientist who is willing to propose extreme steps to avoid death. To me, that's a reason not to give this particular guy this is insane to me.

Nele:

First of all, who that exists on this earth right now, where I'd want to go through all that trouble to preserve them. Think about it like who? And then the people that could afford to do this are the ones that need to die. Sorry, imagine if it's gone to the hands of someone like donald trump. Okay, he needs to die. Like, go away.

Nele:

Like, go away yeah if he gets his hands on on technology like this, like no, absolutely not. This is a waste of time, a waste of money. This goes against nature. No, it goes against all of that.

Soph:

But people are obsessed with living forever. We're afraid of dying. We're obsessed with how can we extend our lifetime? Right, and if this becomes available, I think two things will happen, right. The first if this research, if they're like, okay, this is actually legit, this research would become classified so quick. The scientists would just disappear and the government would say, oh, this is inconclusive. Meanwhile, the defense industry would be thinking of all the ways it can exploit it, and none of them are good for regular people.

Soph:

Or, to your point, right, it's probably going to become available for people who are rich, like the Donald Trumps of the world, who do not need to live another 30, 40, 50 years. Right, but they're going to be the ones with access to it, even though our tax paying money funded this. But here's the thing, though like life is so hard. Could you imagine like the retirement age right now is 65, like thinking about them, like, oh my god, like I need an escape plan yeah you know, imagine, if you live to be, if this, something like this, exists, that retirement age goes away.

Nele:

So that means I was thinking about that too like is this also a way to like extend retirement age?

Soph:

yeah, it is that basically.

Nele:

Would that even do away with social security, though like what would be?

Soph:

that means some of us would never benefit from social security like that yeah, that's the case, there is a real concern that you know, especially like countries like the us, china and all of that, that we're not having babies. People are retiring like we need to refill the workforce. China, for the first time in decades, just increased their retirement age because they have an aging workforce and they're not having babies. That aside, the planet we can't afford to have people live super long unless the birth rate drops drastically, like this planet can't. It can't sustain us in our habits, like we're, consumerism is our religion. We'll strip this place clean.

Soph:

And then you have like a Mad Max scenario where, like we're always fighting for that, the little resources that we're doing that now, like, just imagine that. Like people, just I'm all for aging so that I'm not dependent on somebody. Right, like that I don't, because. Imagine like just losing your, your mind, mind, which is like scary, and mobility, like I, I'd rather you know, live whatever the you know 100 or so, even less than that, but have, like you know, have like a healthy body, like have be able to recognize my kids and my grandkids. Like that I'm all for. But extending people's lifetime, because the people who always benefit are not the people who should benefit and we know so yeah definitely.

Nele:

Wow, that was scary. I also thought about like creating super armies with stuff like that, where they have cloning right and if you're trying to create a super army.

Nele:

That's like a goal, like you know, yeah, with these sentient beings, and then you get like great um, great um minds that were in the army. You know, generals, whatever, use their brains, swap it, then put it on a sentient being, then clone it and then you have like a freaking super army. The stuff is scary, but the thing is with this is a whole other conversation. But reacting in these ways when it comes to, like, the birth rate dropping, when reality is, there's things that we could do now that are that are simple enough that would encourage people to have family and do things, but they don't want to do it.

Soph:

They don't do all this other stuff, but they don't want to do it, but just you know we don't. We don't have to work as much as we do. Right, productivity, like just technology has made it so that we don't need to work the way we do, but somehow, as things get easier, like we're still working the same amount of hours, like they don't, like it's like they need to squeeze out as much as they possibly can for you. I think we can live somewhere where we don't need to work all these hours, like things could be affordable. It's so insane to me. Like businesses they keep increasing their prices, like mcdonald's right now is suffering because the people who could afford their food could no longer afford their food right, so they have to figure out like how can these poor people come back to us, even though they're they're increasing their? Like keep increasing your practice like there's no one. If no one can consume it, then what?

Nele:

oh, that's why I saw this like three for five meal on mcdonald's. I was like you, trying to really shell things out now because people are can't, you can't afford to eat out like you used to, and I don't know and they're saying they can't afford to, like, raise their incomes.

Soph:

If you go to other countries with better labor laws, mcdonald's they're paying their employees a living wage. It's here, where we don't have better labor laws, mcdonald's, they're paying their employees a living wage. It's here, where we don't have strong labor laws, right that they can do stuff like this. So I don't know. This is really scary. Again, it would be great if, as we're aging, our eyesight doesn't go to shit. Don't groan every time we have to get up.

Nele:

You know, like oh man, because my neck right now. I know I slept wrong, okay.

Soph:

Yeah, Like your knees when it rains, it's like it does that.

Nele:

I tried to drop it like it's hot for the day. Drop it like it's not.

Soph:

Okay, dolores was telling me like she went out dancing and the next day she was just broke. I was like, oh my God, she was like. I felt it in my back, I felt it on my thigh.

Nele:

Oh man man, these 40-year-old knees man.

Soph:

But, like you know, if we could find a cure for Alzheimer's, if we can just find a way to make aging less painful, right, make a way to make aging less painful right um make you know you're more independent, you could be your own thing, aging with dignity, you know, and just dignity. Yeah, we can extending our life, not with the kind of people we have in this world no, honestly, and just to see how we've devolved as like, oh my God, humanity has devolved.

Nele:

I don't know how much longer I would want to live to see you know I wouldn't.

Soph:

I'm like I don't want to be here. I don't want to be here, I don't want to see the likes of, like Looney Lorna.

Nele:

Laura Loomer. Laura Loomer Right, that's a good segue. Looney Lorna. Laura Loomer All right, good segue. Yeah, hi, yeah, yeah. Like, just stick me in the ground. Like actually I want to be cremated, like I don't. You know, I just want to enjoy what. We're middle-aged, right, we're middle-aged now, so just want to enjoy my time. You know, still want to be able to shake a little something every now and again, I know you know, and that's it.

Nele:

You know it's fine. All this other stuff is unnecessary, I know. Make way for the new folks. Yes, let the babies come in, take over do whatever.

Soph:

We don't have the kind of moral compass to live long. Right, we don't, in fantasy, like elves, live very long. But because they live very long, they're very conscious. They're like, hey, if I screw this up today, I'm going to be here 300 years from now. I'm going to reap what I sow. So like they're very conscious of the earth, they're very conscious of the way they live and the way they treat each other. Because of that Like not not saying elves are real, but just taking that example from them they should be, they should be.

Soph:

I think they're real, um, but yeah, so I think we don't, we we, we would strip this of everything. Yeah, that it, it's already, it's already gone to shit already it's already gone to shit we want to pretend that you know global warming is not an issue, that, yeah, you know. The oceans, the our animals are dying like yeah and they're fighting back like whales and the otters. They better they better you have whales sinking boats. Is it whales or dolphins? I think it's whales, I don't know it's one of them.

Nele:

There's probably whales as they should, they're sinking boats.

Soph:

There was a river otters um, who, just they like, attacked this runner. Not funny, but um, or even elephants, if you heard of like it was that elephant who think he trampled this woman then went to her funeral oh yeah, I saw that.

Nele:

I saw that and the crazy thing is like elephants actually like us. You know how we see like little and like animals, like a kitten or something. Oh, it's cute, that's how they think of humans, girl, I've been uh, I will face to face. Well, I had a face with a, with an elephant. It was the best experience ever. Okay I was her bitch, and I was here for it yeah, memory yeah and so, but they actually like humans.

Nele:

And I watch these videos where, like it's not um, what do you call it? It's like a sanctuary for them. Right, especially in africa they have sanctuaries for them and they're just really like friendly with the people or whatever. Yeah, but um, that, that elephant. If he did that to that woman, she deserved it.

Soph:

They're saying she was like a poacher or something. So there was a reason.

Nele:

Like elephants have a really good memory, like they just Do you see that video of that horse, and it was in England, I think. There was like a guard was standing on it but the horse only like black people. What? Yes, so it's like you know, guard on top of the horse, and when the black people come to pet the horse it's like, hey girl, how you doing, or whatever you know. When the palm colored people went to you know, pet the horse, it was like it was just like moving it. It was like no kind of like nipped at it.

Nele:

I was like, oh, you remember yeah, you had a you had an ancestor on the plantation or something you know these animals know. Okay, yeah, girl, yeah, that definitely was not normal at all. Thanks that, that was really mad. I appreciate that.

Soph:

You had the stuff and I'm like this is where our future is heading.

Nele:

Geriatric sex tapes and extending the geriatric life. It all comes together. So, y'all, our next segment is called the Mars housing draft. Now, for the past couple of episodes, there's been so much going on politically that we haven't had time, but we kind of revamped it a little bit. So, again, earth is the ghetto, and so we are creating a contingency plan to get the hell up out of here, but not everyone come with us, and so we decided creating contingency plan to get the hell up out of here, but not everyone come with us, and so we decided to conduct it like you know, the New York housing lottery. We decided to do that, but we switched it up this time, right. You know, soph and I were trying to be all like intelligent and thoughtful about the people that we chose. We chose some good people, girl.

Nele:

We chose some really good people like scientists, people making like bricks out of like in air and I don't know we were just we were getting some really like good people, right, um, but you know, I'm here for the ratch and herself in her own way. So we decided we gonna make this a little bit different. It's more like a head-to-head. So we're gonna choose a category of a type of people, right? So we'll have a person and I'll have a person and we are going to fight for our people to go into this housing lottery, to go to Mars, right? And since I'm a firm believer in diversity of thought, I said that we should. The category should be political Karens. And so, going head to head, we have Marjorie Taylor Greene versus Laura Loomer Look at Soph's face, because Soph has Laura Loomer. Okay, so do you want to go first, soph? Mine is going to be short girl so this woman is this woman is pretty awful.

Soph:

I don't know if I want to fight for her.

Nele:

She's awful, okay, the stuff she's been saying about kamala. Can't speak.

Soph:

Kamala is insane the stuff she's been saying about her the stuff like she's saying about, um, just black politicians, period, calling them like anywho. So, janelle, fyi, I hated this assignment. Laura is hateful, right, and it makes me think back to our conversation about aging. Can you imagine someone like her living longer in the chaos they can continue to cause? I think the only thing that I would say about her is that being associated with Trump may mean that he loses supporters. That is the only good thing about her, and maybe I'm pretty sure she's a side chick, you know and maybe it might cause. Yeah, that's really disgusting. I don't know what is keeping her. That woman, that woman hates Trump, trump's wife hates him, but something is. I don't know if it's the prenup, I don't know what it is, but something is keeping her there.

Nele:

Look, I'm sure she's getting paid. Okay, melania just wanted to get a cute little coin and live her life, and now she's stuck having to be in the political arena. She didn't want this.

Soph:

She don't want him I mean, but she could leave, but something is stopping her and if it's money, then it's like, well, that then it's money. Um, but uh, that's all I can say about um, looney lorna. Right, she may turn people, hopefully, against Trump because she is a 9-11 conspiracy theorist. And then she joined the Republican presidential candidate. She joined Trump at events in New York and Pennsylvania to commemorate the anniversary of the attacks. Can you like this man? Whatever? I'm just I'm over it Girl. I'm intending on MTG, who is, by the way, that's all she is Like. They're the same people.

Nele:

Yeah, she's a hater, all right. So I actually had to like look her up a little bit, shout out to ChatGPT little bit Shout out to chat GPT.

Soph:

You know, you didn't even need chat GPT.

Nele:

She is Marjorie Taylor green, also known as MTG, is an American politician and businesswoman who has served as the U? S representative for Georgia's 14th congressional district since January 2021. And she's a member of the Republican Party, so she's been known to say some controversial things. She said some violent and racist remarks on social media, definitely in the vein of anti-Islamophobic rhetoric, conspiracy theories, anti-islamophobic rhetoric, conspiracy theories. She's talked about opposition to COVID-19 measures. So she's been very outspoken about like mask mandates and vaccine mandates and, yeah, and also she was very vocal about the impeachment efforts. She introduced articles of impeachment against Joe Biden shortly after his inauguration, though the effort was largely symbolic and did not gain traction in Congress Just wasting the government's time. Okay, I only knew of this because of Senator Jasmine Crockett, who got in that ass, beach, blonde, bad built body. You better leave Black women alone. Okay, leave Black women alone.

Soph:

She's going to be the wrong one.

Nele:

Yeah, but you know it's bad when NTG is even like Laura Loomer. I'm not associating with her. She has renounced Laura Loomer. They're the same people and I'm like you are both awful.

Soph:

They're the same exact people.

Nele:

You're both awful, loony.

Soph:

Lorna is just younger and slightly more attractive, but not attractive.

Nele:

But better than MTG. They both look very hard.

Soph:

They're the same people and mtg actually, when she was running in florida for whatever position, um margie taylor green supported her, you know.

Nele:

So I I don't know what's going on these women are awful and I feel like with maybe she, maybe laura loomer is like some kind of spy for the Democrats and she's been put in there to like put a chink because the Republicans are telling Trump, like you need to like cut ties, like cut, cut, cut, and he's like, oh you know she says some controversial things, but she is definitely giving him special attention, okay yeah, and she made some comment like trump needs to win.

Soph:

If he doesn't win, I don't have anything. Girl, but this woman is, I think there's. I don't know if she just likes being or she's trying to find ways to be in the limelight, because some of the stuff she does her and margie taylor I'm like how are you not in? Like, how do you guys, how have you not gotten arrested? Right, who takes y'all seriously? I just don't.

Soph:

I like, or when was it, um, for Margie Taylor Greene, when? When was it in 2020? When she shared the Facebook, I guess, picture depicting her as she was holding a rifle next to pictures of Ocasio-Cortez, omar and Tlaib, you know, and she wrote that it was time for strong conservative Christians to go down the offense against these socialists who want to rip our country for. So this christian holding a gun next to pictures of, you know, these uh women and it's not considered a threat, like I mean, if a regular person did that, like I think the fbi would be knocking on their door, but the privilege that they have is just and she's an idiot. Oh my god, she's so stupid she's so stupid.

Nele:

I'm over these political karens, oh my god. Um so we have a hard decision to make, because they're both awful people but mtg has power, right, because she's in congress.

Soph:

Um, she's an idiot, right. So when discussing the police guarding the Capitol, she called the police, the Capitol police, gazpacho police, which is soup. It's a cold-spotted soup, didn't she say gazpapo? She said gazpacho. She didn't say gazpapo, but she said gazpacho. Girl bye, girl goodbye. And then, similarly, she called a petri dish, a peach tree dish absolutely not okay, she has, she's violent. I think she's violent like I don't. I you know she believes she's a q anon, she believes in pizza gate you know so, since she's more dangerous than laura loomer.

Nele:

But laura loomer, the stuff she's basically calling kamala like a whore, like just the stuff that she's been saying, is just like awful. She's calling black women di shaniquas, yeah, di shaniquas. This woman D-E-I Shaniquas, yeah, d-e-i Shaniquas.

Soph:

This woman? I don't know, but can I just say so? Margie Taylor Greene has a biography on Amazon. It has 39 reviews, 1.5 stars. I wanted to quote someone, atomic Jarhead.

Soph:

I picked the book up from the secondhand table at the local resale shop and one of those. All you got into the back were $5 deals. I swear it was accidental. Believe me, I had known. I had grabbed it and even was going to open it to begin reading it Out of curiosity. I would have told you that you were nuts. Instead, my intelligence has been diminished. I mean, you were shrill as I read through the first chapter. I won't let the next person accidentally pick this book up and it's been burned. It was a book worth burning. How did it have just 39 reviews?

Soph:

You would think her supporters would flood Amazon and, like you know, just write all this. Every review on there was like don't read this, or they're just saying like I didn't read it, but I'm giving it one star. So she I mean she's promoted same thing as that woman a loomer, anti-semitic content, including sharing a video on facebook, um, touting the conspiracy theory that the jewish community plans to replace the white population through mass immigration. She's just, she. Also, she had an affair with a gym manager named Justin Tway and another with Craig Ivey, a so-called tantric sex guru.

Soph:

God damn it, girl. You know like she considers herself a good Christian. Right, and a lot of these like nut job Republicans are. Like we're Christians. You know good family values. Like you can't pick and choose your sins, right, the bible says that an adulterer and the adulteress Are put to death. Right, whether you're into like, whether you're gay or you're an adulterer, the sin is a sin. You're both going to hell, according to your bible. So I don't know they don't they pick and choose. Like divorce is not allowed in the bible yeah, girl, you're gonna pick, pick and choose pick and choose.

Soph:

You know, pick and choose what they want to. This is. This is why I can't stand these Christians. I freaking can't. They're just the hypocrisy.

Nele:

Girl.

Soph:

Love thy neighbor, but you're holding a gun next to these women and speaking all of.

Nele:

Girl. That's a whole other podcast, because Jesus Christ is not my Lord and Savior. I feel about how he used to subjugate Black people, but a whole podcast about that. Okay, my lord and savior, and you know how I feel, about how I would choose to subjugate black people, but absolutely not a whole podcast about that. Okay, all right, girl, we got to make a decision, girl I, I don't want any of them honestly, they should be on the ban list I want them on the ban list.

Nele:

I don't even want them on the wait list. Okay, I think you know what. Make an executive decision, I'm ahead of the lottery board, the housing lottery board. I'm putting them on the ban list. They cannot come. They can't, I'm all about diversity of thought, but Not that kind of thought. I don't want these thoughts, these Karen, political, republican thoughts up in our planet. Absolutely not. It's not so.

Soph:

They're banned we don't want you banned for life for eons. I didn't like this one girl, like as I was reading it, as I was reading about them, like I knew they were awful, especially margie taylor green, because I live in in Georgia. Reading about her life story and just who she is and just the things that she does, like she's just hateful.

Nele:

She's a hateful woman and that's why her face looks like that. It is all over her face.

Soph:

Yes, like she's like how is someone dating her Like she was married to like do her kids? I want to find you know what that's? Because she's a freak telling you doing tantric sex and whatnot right, and she's out here walking through walmart because, um, you know, walmart, they sell toys but they're locked up. And she's like walking through walmart, you know, like all up in a tizzy because there was a dildo out.

Nele:

I'm like like why would you buy a dildo?

Soph:

I'm sure she owns a dildo. Why would you buy it from a Walmart? Why would you buy it from a Walmart? Yeah, I mean, it's with the contraceptive. So it's like where you buy like birth, not birth control, where you buy like a pregnancy test, all of that or like the Get things delivered to the privacy of your home like a normal human being.

Nele:

The cashier's just ringing up like but the thing is you have to find someone to open it To unlock it and then you're like I want that big black one up at the top.

Soph:

Right there. Yeah, they have to take it and walk it to the register and then the register has to ring it up.

Nele:

I would be so embarrassed it's like the code on the balls part just ringing it up like nope. I don't understand.

Soph:

Price check on this.

Nele:

Can I get a price check on the BBC Deluxe the?

Soph:

BBC Deluxe. I need to know the person that does this.

Nele:

I need to know the person that does this. She's insane. I didn't even know that You're a psycho, all right. Well, that's it for the housing draft. That was also very odd as well.

Soph:

All right.

Nele:

Well, on to our main topic, which was the presidential debate um between kamala harris, vice president kamala harris, and donald trump. Um, it happened this past week, september 10th, at philadelphia, uh, hosted by abc right, abc, and it was interesting. I'm not going to lie, I definitely was high watching it and I definitely was texting. So, for some reality testing, to make sure that, me being high, I wasn't hearing things, but it wasn't the weed, it was actually real life.

Soph:

So that was actually scary, um.

Nele:

So I'll start from my initial like uh reactions to it. So, um, I liked that kamala um had to basically chase down trump to get him to like shake her hand. He was going to be a petty king and um just go ahead and just go to his podium like who does that? They always shake hands. What's wrong with you, sir?

Soph:

she was aggressive about it too.

Nele:

She was like you're gonna shake this hand um and so now I think when he started off it wasn't that bad. I was like okay, because I knew there was going to be a meltdown in there somewhere. I just didn't expect it to happen.

Nele:

The way it did but when it first started off, like he was okay and I actually saw this um podcast. Um, his name is david unpackman on youtube and he was talking with this um psychologist or psychiatrist and he was saying that he believes that trump has adhd and that, um, he was given some stimulants. Like, if you looked at his eyes, like his pupils, like they were like huge and I think the stimulants kind of helped him a little bit. But stimulants were off and so maybe once they were off, that's when we saw the meltdown, but he kept it together for a little while. What did you think?

Soph:

yeah, I thought same thing too, like his facial expressions were just really off. It just goes like he wasn't prepared. You know, like Kamala was prepared. You know Harris was prepared. She had her talking points. You know this man had concepts of a plant, like I don't know if he said that, I also thought like they didn't really answer questions too right.

Soph:

They did not, neither of them did. I think America's better off today, like, and she went into her plant, you know when they asked her outright, you know, do you? What are your thoughts on abortions at? Like you know the later stages in pregnancy? Like she didn't really talk about that, although Trump saying that people giving abortions, like at nine months, most states cut you off at like 12 months. I mean 12 weeks. Yeah, that was medical, unless it's medically necessary. So I wish, like they, the way the moderator was like no state allows that right.

Soph:

Like he was he was fat check because he's like he's deranged yeah, but no one believes that, no, no, his base will believe that, right. His base will believe that kids go to school and come back with the whole sex change yeah like, how stupid do you have to be to think that?

Soph:

But that is where we are, yeah, you know. And one thing I will. I wanted to say this was just the whole. You know, they're eating the pets, like we're laughing, we're creating music and this shit is not funny, it's not Scary the way they are terrorizing people. And then we were taking this and we're like laughing about it, like there's a, there's a community being like harassed, like they're getting bomb threats, like you know.

Soph:

And let's think about it, right, like Haitian, these Haitian immigrants, they are here legally, yes, right. And let's think about other immigrants, like Ukrainian immigrants. So, as much as Republicans love glorifying Putin and pushing Russian propaganda and vilifying Zelensky, not one word about the Ukrainian migrants. Right, the Ohio immigrants are here legally and they are using the same temporary parole that Ukrainians are benefiting from, role that Ukrainians are benefiting from. So, according to an article on CBS, in April 2022, biden created an unprecedented program known as Uniting for Ukraine, allowing an unlimited number of Ukrainians, sponsored by Americans, to come to the US and work here legally without having to go through the lengthy visa process. And this is the same thing that was open to other countries, like Haiti, in two years, right? Us immigration officials have approved more than 236,000 cases for Ukraine and, as of the end of March 2024, more than 180,000 arrive in the US under this policy. Another 350,000 have arrived in the US outside of this, but mainly through, like temporary visas.

Soph:

And, unlike most US immigration policies, like this, no one's said a word. Right, like no one's saying anything. Republican-led states, for example, have filed lawsuits against every other Biden immigration policy. Right, like Cuba, haiti, nicaragua, venezuela, all of them, but not one for uniting for Ukraine program. Not one right. So, unlike the programs and the crazy thing is, unlike the programs for Cubans, haitians, nicaragans, venezuelans, those programs are capped at 30,000. The Ukraine one has no limit, no limit. So as many could come up like, you can't tell me. This is not based on race, right? I'm sure the ukrainians are taking jobs.

Nele:

I'm sure they are causing strains on health care and social services of course, it's based on race, and even donald trump jr is doubling down talking about Haitians having low IQs, and it's just like how are they so hateful? You're so hateful, and particularly like I'm getting Black people's ass that support Trump Because, at this point, they are using Haitians in place of, like, the N-word. That's the way I feel, like you feel this way about all Black people. I think it's easier to single out Haitians because of their relationship with America, whatnot, but you to support this man that is basically just denigrating your people.

Nele:

I don't, I don't understand it right, you will never be a rich white man, and this is what they think of you.

Soph:

Yeah, and they don't differentiate between oh, you're African, you're African you're African you're Afro Latino.

Soph:

They don't care. They don't, they do not care at all. Yeah, and the one thing I'll I will add um, cause I thought this was like this is still happening in America in 2023. So in 2023, um, five Haitian community members filed a federal lawsuit against the Indiana borough of um motor vehicles. The lawsuit claims that the state's driver's license law discriminates against immigrants based on their country of origin. So the law um house enrolled act50, only grants driver's license and state ID eligibility to immigrants who have been granted humanitarian parole, but only if they are from Ukraine. It excludes parolees from other countries. So Ukrainians get a driver's license and a state ID, but anyone else, right, like what makes them so special? That they I mean people drive in Haiti. Right, people drive in Cuba, nicaragua, they drive in all those places, but somehow Ukrainians are the ones you know, and it's just they're running on a you know, they're. It's clear to me they're running on a platform of hate, of dividing people, and I like that. You know, harris, like she spoke, that I'm a president for all Americans right.

Soph:

Which that's true, like people assume, because she's not white that she's going to favor us. And we saw obama like obama but it's it's not.

Nele:

It's not realistic. It's not realistic to be like hey, I'm only going to, you know I'm. I'm running in the interest of black people because we make up what 12 percent of the population trump is trump?

Soph:

is really saying it without saying that I'm running for the interest of rich white men and all other white people. Next, yes. You know like there's a hierarchy.

Nele:

Yes, but at this point, just what this debate revealed. What is what it's going to reveal? Right, because even after the the debate, when it took the polls, there was definitely like an increase for kamala, but it's still close. It's not like, oh, she's blowing him out of the water. She just shows how, like black women in particular, have to work twice as hard against this, like man who's? There's cognitive decline, that's happening. There's hate, that's being like, there's all these things like what are? What are his policies? What are you voting for?

Nele:

he has a plan, you're not even voting for. A competent human being like trump is making up words after, like the, after the um, after the debate, just the rallies that he's had, like girl.

Soph:

He's making up numbers, he's making up facts.

Nele:

The reality isn't there. He's telling people yeah, I, I won the debate. Um, even right after the debate, just walking around looking all confused, talking about yeah, 85 percent of the you know of the polls said that I that I won the debate.

Soph:

85, 70, 90, like it was just all over. Where are you? Where are you?

Nele:

getting this? Where are you getting this?

Soph:

yeah, but it was it wasn't interesting.

Nele:

It was interesting and I could see someone who was undecided why. Maybe the debate didn't really push them either way, because, like you said, as much as I'm here from a girl, I just don't think that she really answered. She didn't really give to me solid answers on things. If anything, this was just a display, like look who's competent and look who's not right. Right, and it's kind of a shame that we even have to, like, do this, but it's like who are you really voting for?

Soph:

um, but in terms of her policies and stuff like that, I feel like there's still things that people need need to know from her and they need to see her more right, right, like the whole, they try to push her on tracking um or one thing that trump said, which was about student loans. He was like that didn't happen. Or he like he's like you know, go ahead and try to do it now, it's not gonna happen. Um a way to get things done. Republicans get things done, like you know, like we just need to find ways to get things done. But again, she's not Joe Biden, right, she is not Joe.

Nele:

She's not Joe Biden, joe.

Soph:

Biden is the president. He makes his policies, he tries to get them through with the support of his people. But she is not Joe Biden, it was yeah, it was a hot mess.

Nele:

Trump definitely referred to himself in the third person a couple of times, Just to me. Him melting down was actually hard to watch.

Nele:

And it's kind of like. It's scary, like how did we get here? And I think what is also scary is that everyone knows trump is dumb as hell, right, but the people behind him aren't dumb as hell, and so they want to put him in power so they can pull the strings for whatever right. But it's falling apart at the seams now Before he can kind of keep it together. And if you're comparing him to Joe Biden, it's like who's more cognitively declined, right, and now you don't have that, and now you don't have that. And so now they are panicking. Even Fox, even people on Fox, are just kind of like yeah now it's like you know, you created this monster, Right?

Nele:

It's like Frankenstein has just gone off and just like done his own thing. He's pop lock and he you don't know what's going on with Frankenstein and you created this monster. You made him believe that he actually has the capability to run this country when it's y'all behind the scenes. And now it's off the rails.

Soph:

You don't know what to do but I mean that's trump, though, like you can tell him what you want, but he's gonna do what he's gonna want to do so, I think like you're trying to. You're trying to control this. Like you can't control trump.

Nele:

Yeah, because his his mind like like Trump was already a malignant, raving narcissist. So couple that with cognitive decline, couple that with him. Just there's a desperation now because he's just running to stay out of jail. Who knows what this man is going to do, and that's why y'all just need to vote and have her win by a large margin so it does not go to supreme court, because if it does, it's a wrap it is a wrap it is a wrap, and so I'm just scared that we're here.

Nele:

I can't believe this is real. I can't believe that someone, as you know, brilliant and hardworking as Kamala has to go up against the likes of Trump. You know, I even think she felt kind of bad for him a little bit. Oh, you know, it's a pity.

Soph:

She was gloating, I would have gloated too, would have glowed it too. I mean I love. So it's like before the debate, like, uh, people are saying that you know, um, because she's gonna go with him, like right, she's gonna, she's gonna try that crowd size man, like there was definitely some kind of psychological warfare and he fell right into it too.

Nele:

Get him.

Soph:

Get him with the crowd size every time like that's how you know she's smarter than him yeah um, he didn't even prep like they say. He didn't prep, he had like advisors. Well, while harris she prepped like she knew, like she knew questions, like she, like she knew her stuff. Um, can we? But can we talk about the meltdown when taylor?

Nele:

yes, look, look, I take back everything I said about my girl tay tay. Right now she's my girl tay tay they are so mad.

Soph:

One of them was like f you, tay like right and mark logan, who is a hateful son of a bitch. I hate looking at his face. He has a punchable face and he was like taylor swift, just endorsed for president the most anti-Semitic, pro-islamist, pro-criminal, anti-cop, anti-middle class and working people open borders, anti-woman sports, anti-military inflation, causing job destroying, pathological, liar and extremist Marxist politician ever. All of them, all of them, wow, really they, oh my. I don't think they had this much hate for Biden.

Nele:

No, of course, of course not A pathological liar.

Soph:

That one was like come on, come on guys.

Nele:

I think they said in the debate, Trump made 33 plus False claims.

Soph:

This kid said I have a concept of a plan. The woman reported like yo, I don't have time for this shit.

Nele:

She was like no, rachel Meadow looked like she wanted to bust out laughing. It's like this can't be serious. What politics has devolved? I'm sure the world is laughing at us right now. This is just.

Soph:

This is pathetic and then, um, this man, uh, jd vance, who is trending negatively like he is, he's the first vice presidential candidate to trend negatively. Um, he made some comment pretty much saying um, it's pretty much saying it was. It was on cnn, I think something was it was on cnn. He was like if I have to create stories so that american media actually pays attention to the suffering of the american people, that's what I'm going to do, right, referring to their, you know, the cats and stuff like they're eating pets. So this man is saying, if we have to create stories, we will do that Right. So, again, the the end justifies the. They just have no moral compass Dangerous.

Nele:

They don't care. People, people, like. Literally I saw a. They're handing out flyers in the neighborhood about like, oh, like, doing stuff to Haitians. Literally there's flyers.

Soph:

Well, they're complaining about like they're taking the jobs. Ohio, like Springfield, was like a dead town in 2020, 2011,. Right, they had a boost in their economy. They have workers Like it's just what jobs are they taking the girl?

Nele:

Back to Tay-Tay. They dropped the bomb on him Let him know what was up, you know and basically signed her endorsement with a single childless cat lady Tay-Tay, tay-tay. Because, technically she is. Taylor Swift is like 35, no kids, she has cats, but she's like a superstar. Now, even though, like I'm here with Tay-Tay, that don't mean I'm a Swifty. What do you call like a superstar? Yeah, now, even though, like I'm here with taytay, that don't mean I'm a swifty. What do you call like a black swifty, a blifty?

Nele:

no, you're just a swifty these republicans tend to forget that. You know you're targeting certain kinds of people, but these, these people also have power too.

Soph:

You know they have influence as well and they get into celebrities like you know, like larry the cable guy and those jersey shore reality show guys, hulk hogan, hulk hogan. But that's fine because they're for the, you know. But if it's, and then elon, elon musk is just so. Elon Musty. This man is. What's that evil? He's Dr Evil from Austin. Like he's Dr Evil, but with hair. He's so pale.

Nele:

Whatever?

Soph:

so he was like. In response to her, he was like fine Taylor, you win, I will give you a child and guard your cats With my life Disgusting absolutely Vomit to her and he was like fine taylor, you win.

Nele:

I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life disgusting absolutely vomit.

Soph:

They're weird and they're unhinged. They are weird. I love that democrats are making are trending that like they are fucking weird that is absolutely disgusting and trump just said that the way he made comments about the fact that Elon has kisses his ass so hard, like Trump, has no shame and saying, hey, yeah, you're in my camp but let me call you out for, like, kissing my ass.

Nele:

That is disgusting.

Soph:

He is disgusting.

Nele:

Yeah. So to conclude, trump, he's now saying that he does not want to have a second debate with Kamala.

Soph:

There should be three.

Nele:

I think that he should, and I think it would be also good for her as well, because you see more of her. Yeah, but now he's punking out um, yeah, but now he's punking out um. And oh, also recently, actually today, there was a an attempt, another assassination attempt, on on trump.

Nele:

um, yeah, there was a shooting, like on his property or right outside his property or whatever trying to get some sympathy I don't know what to say to this, because all this time trump has been on this earth, I've never known of any assassination attempts to occur All of a sudden. Now there's been two in a short span and one that has happened after he's lost a debate.

Nele:

Yeah, I didn't hear about that one. I oh no it it like happened, was it earlier today? Yeah, and it's interesting because people are reporting on it. Everyone knows it's bs fbi investigating new trump and uh, assassination attempt near his golf course. Trump safe after shots fired outside Palm Beach Golf Club. Yeah, so this happened. This happened today. Okay, yeah, girl. So, um, I don't know what. He's gonna pull out his hat um to combat this. He's gonna do everything but debate um, and, if anything, it was entertaining, but it was sad and I just feel like the decline is more apparent now more than ever.

Soph:

When you were comparing him to Biden, you didn't see it, because Biden was.

Nele:

Girl. Speaking of Biden, did you see? He recovered well, though it was recently, I forgot where he was speaking, but also he ended up saying Black jobs. He was like, yeah, and they're taking the Black jobs, or whatever, but then he recovered and then he was like but the Black jobs include the President of the United States, and he was like uh-huh, united states. And he was like uh-huh, and they were like uh-huh because they were like, and then they were like okay, so he recovered. I was like all right, biden, because you getting confused, wear mega hats. You know, now you talk about black jobs. Did you see the whole mega hat clip, though?

Soph:

did you see the whole mega hat clip though? Did you see the whole MAGA hat clip? You have to watch the whole thing. Okay, it's funny. He didn't do it because of you, know, he's like you just have to watch the whole thing. It was like this it was like just two old men having a laugh, right, because they're like put it on, put it on. He was like I'm not that crazy now that he finally does put it on, put it on. He was like I'm not that crazy now that he finally does put it on. Okay, just like you have to watch the whole thing. Okay, um, to really see it right, it was just like he was just, he was just two people from different sides and they were just joking around and like having a moment okay, you know so yeah people like put it on, put it on, put it on.

Soph:

He was like I don't know. He finally just puts it on and he's like okay, I put it on, but you have to. I encourage anyone, everyone to like watch that whole clip, Because we like to take snippets of stuff and run with it. We don't like the whole story.

Nele:

Yes, you got to create a narrative.

Soph:

And I'm trying to be mindful of that, like if I hear something, something, my immediate reaction now is all right, is there more to this? Yeah, you have to investigate, that's it. But not right our attention, you know, our attention is so short our attention, that is short, like we just see that clip because we just like clipping yep and we're that's. That's how misinformation spread and that woman who spread the Haitian stuff. I hope she gets what's coming. She's like I'm not a racist, I didn't mean to do it.

Nele:

Typical Karen. You didn't mean to be caught being racist.

Soph:

Crocodile tears. I hope you get what's coming to you.

Nele:

I think they should just bottle up Karen tears and sell them. Sell them, yeah, and then we get the proceeds.

Soph:

Karen tears and sell them, sell them yeah, and then we get the proceeds as like reparations or something, hmm, hmm.

Nele:

But yeah, y'all. That was it about the debate. Yeah, episode. This has been like just a lot of weirdness. It's been odd. I'm here for it. It has been odd, all right, y'all.

Nele:

So now for shady astrology, where I get in your Zodiac's ass. It's still Virgo season. Shout outs to the Virgos that got in that ass last episode. Libra's coming up and I definitely have something for the Libras when that time comes, because ain't no man with a missing side tooth gonna try and hurt my feelings? That's real personal, but it was the Libra, all right.

Nele:

So normally I like to talk about, in lieu of Zodiac, the phases of the moon or which Zodiac the moon is in. So I mean, by the time you all see this, it will be in another Zodiac, but you know if it should come up again now you know again, now you know. So today the moon is in Aquarius and it's a unique and interesting placement in the astrology, right. So, aquarius, it brings a sense of emotional detachment, intellectual stimulation and a focus on the collective rather than personal emotions, right, rather than personal emotions, right. So here's what you can expect during this phase being emotionally detached.

Nele:

I would just like to say Aquarians dope people, I have it in my chart, but y'all are some heartless hoes. Heartless hoes, okay, and my cat is also an Aquarius, so great friends. But lovers, lovers, cold-blooded, absolutely not. Okay. So, but being Aquarius is associated with emotional detachment, right. So the moon represents our emotions and while Aquarius is an air sign, they're known for being rational and objective, and the combination can lead to more detached, cerebral approach to feelings. So, basically, logic over emotions during this time. Also, progressive thinking, so you may have more original ideas, forward thinking ideas, more problem solving, breaking away from like outdated, like norms, okay. Also being more community oriented. So Aquarians are affiliated with like, being altruistic, being community-based. They're very like great friends, I will say that, and unconventional Aquarians are weird as hell. So during this time, you may be getting your weird on.

Nele:

I know it's been a very weird Weekend. I just want to say this A lot of naps. I love naps, but, girl, I told y'all I was trying to Do a little training. That ain't weird. A lot of sleep, a lot of naps.

Soph:

I told y'all I was trying to do a little training, that ain't weird.

Nele:

I'm not a nap that I am taking, but naps are phenomenal, can.

Soph:

I recommend, when you're napping, to like play something like really hunky, like just a podcast or anything.

Nele:

And sometimes it, like it, weaves into into you. Oh, I definitely do, girl. First of all, I listen to Tara. When I go to sleep, I definitely listen to certain like Podcasts. When I go to sleep, I listen to Terrence.

Soph:

McKenna, who talks about mushrooms. Yes, he's an ayahuasca. I haven't heard any of them, but I like listening to his voice and he has some really wacky out there ideas and just the way I. Yeah, status quo and also, um, there's a need for freedom.

Nele:

Aquarians are very emotionally independent and you may crave your space in relationships and or you may not want to be involved in entanglements. That may seem like routine. You know, I get it my boys and aquarius. He's been acting up, being all in the closet, not cuddling with his mama, all right. So activities to do during this time engage in intellectual pursuits or social activism, collaborate on group projects or spend time with friends, focus on technology, innovation or new ideas, and embrace your unique, authentic self without fear or judgment. This moon phase is great for tapping into your creativity, exploring new ideas and considering how your emotions connect to the bigger picture. All right, so y'all, that is it. Anything else you want to add? Soph? No, I like that. We're ending it. Yeah, alright, y'all. Till next time. If you like the vibe, please make sure to like comment and subscribe. Till next time, y'all, bye.
