WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.580 Last week you went to the HRC dinner and I know 00:00:02.580 --> 00:00:04.639 this because my spouse went with you and your 00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:07.940 spouse and I believe your sister in law person. 00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:11.039 Right. And we talked about on last week's show 00:00:11.039 --> 00:00:15.220 that you were going to go. But now. You have 00:00:15.220 --> 00:00:18.239 gone and the HRC dinner was on National Coming 00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:20.679 Out Day. How was the dinner like how was the 00:00:20.679 --> 00:00:25.960 event itself? Let's start there. I will say this 00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:29.000 year going to try to. you know, not to be too 00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:34.020 critical here, but I there were some issues this 00:00:34.020 --> 00:00:37.100 year that hasn't happened in previous years. 00:00:37.100 --> 00:00:40.320 So and I believe that you caught on to this Alex, 00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:44.240 they downsized, they went into a smaller venue. 00:00:44.740 --> 00:00:50.200 And I believe that is due to some corporate sponsors 00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:52.759 pulling support like local Seattle corporate 00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:55.719 sponsor sponsors pulling support. So they went 00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:59.829 into a smaller area. which made it a little hectic 00:00:59.829 --> 00:01:03.429 because when you walk in you have like a silent 00:01:03.429 --> 00:01:05.469 auction going on so you're supposed to walk around 00:01:05.469 --> 00:01:08.709 the items well there wasn't really anywhere to 00:01:08.709 --> 00:01:11.129 stand so everyone was standing in front of silent 00:01:11.129 --> 00:01:15.370 auction items and yeah chatting so it was a little 00:01:15.370 --> 00:01:21.230 chaotic but once you got actually into like the 00:01:21.230 --> 00:01:26.959 dinner part I'm not gonna lie There were like 00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:29.959 two times where I was trying not to cry because 00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:35.719 it was very sad so one guest speaker was a survivor 00:01:35.719 --> 00:01:41.599 of the 2016 Orlando shooting that happened and 00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:45.859 I believe like 49 people including his partner 00:01:45.859 --> 00:01:52.659 died So he was talking about that and very inspirational 00:01:52.659 --> 00:01:56.769 very it was a great it was a great speech I am 00:01:56.769 --> 00:01:59.670 very moving, but definitely tried not to cry. 00:02:00.530 --> 00:02:04.290 I there was a lot of things about it. Let me 00:02:04.290 --> 00:02:07.030 pause here. So I it was on national coming out 00:02:07.030 --> 00:02:12.229 day. I wore makeup and address to this event. 00:02:12.449 --> 00:02:17.189 And then I posted on social media. I am coming 00:02:17.189 --> 00:02:21.289 out officially as trans. I am to pretty much 00:02:21.289 --> 00:02:25.189 like everyone. that I did not deem super important 00:02:25.189 --> 00:02:27.110 that I should tell before they just find out 00:02:27.110 --> 00:02:30.530 on social media and I was expecting so I like 00:02:30.530 --> 00:02:34.490 did it kind of shut off my phone and I was expecting 00:02:34.490 --> 00:02:37.509 to wake up the next day having to delete and 00:02:37.509 --> 00:02:43.870 block a lot of people from Florida. So back to 00:02:43.870 --> 00:02:46.949 the speeches. A lot of it was about trans rights 00:02:46.949 --> 00:02:52.039 and That kind of stuff so definitely very moving 00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:58.340 very emotional um Yeah, the food this year was 00:02:58.340 --> 00:03:06.219 okay Yes, I heard about the food I'm so So you 00:03:06.219 --> 00:03:08.620 have you have like three options you have I'm 00:03:08.620 --> 00:03:11.759 also gonna partially put that on the venue yeah, 00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:16.509 I I would agree with that and so you have a I 00:03:16.509 --> 00:03:18.729 don't care what you give me option. Then you 00:03:18.729 --> 00:03:21.310 have a vegetarian option and then you have a 00:03:21.310 --> 00:03:24.310 gluten free option. I got the I don't care what 00:03:24.310 --> 00:03:30.449 you give me option, which was some fish on a 00:03:30.449 --> 00:03:36.550 bed of corn. It was okay. But the person next 00:03:36.550 --> 00:03:39.430 to me got the vegetarian option and somehow had 00:03:39.430 --> 00:03:43.469 like fettuccine Alfredo and I was like so wanted 00:03:43.469 --> 00:03:46.379 that. I was like, oh, man, I should get the. 00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:48.120 And they didn't tell you ahead of time, like 00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:50.460 which one was they were like, I don't care, vegetarian 00:03:50.460 --> 00:03:52.419 or gluten free. That's all you got to know ahead 00:03:52.419 --> 00:03:56.900 of time. Well, it was like a meat option, like, 00:03:57.180 --> 00:03:59.159 you know, like, do you want do you want meat 00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:01.400 or do you want gluten free or do you want vegetarian? 00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:03.819 And I chose the meat one. But they didn't tell 00:04:03.819 --> 00:04:06.900 you what each option actually meant. That's no. 00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:11.099 That's weird, right? That's weird. That's definitely 00:04:11.099 --> 00:04:14.770 weird. No, it's not weird. That's just. Man, 00:04:14.930 --> 00:04:18.610 come on. Because what if I did better? You know? 00:04:19.230 --> 00:04:22.689 Yeah, I'm just eating corn. I don't know. Yeah. 00:04:23.250 --> 00:04:24.970 Anyways, it was a great time. It was a great 00:04:24.970 --> 00:04:30.610 night. Loved it. I am actually one. As I thought 00:04:30.610 --> 00:04:33.129 it was funny, no one else thought it was funny. 00:04:34.370 --> 00:04:40.410 There is a local furry bar in Seattle. It is 00:04:40.410 --> 00:04:44.899 called. I think barely furry or hardly furry. 00:04:45.139 --> 00:04:47.399 I have heard about it. I have not seen it. I 00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:50.240 have not gone. Sounds like a great time. They 00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.660 do make their own beer. I do kind of want to 00:04:52.660 --> 00:04:55.420 check it out. They had like a little gift basket 00:04:55.420 --> 00:04:59.939 for auction. No one was bidding on it and I want 00:04:59.939 --> 00:05:04.899 it. And I kind of like, I don't know. I thought 00:05:04.899 --> 00:05:07.459 it was funny. So I want a beanie and like a scarf 00:05:07.459 --> 00:05:13.279 from thing barely. Furry. My wife unsurprisingly 00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:19.079 won wine. A lot of wine. Yes, I'm aware. She 00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:22.139 is. So she literally is sitting there and she 00:05:22.139 --> 00:05:27.819 goes, Hey, I want some wine. I was like, Oh, 00:05:27.819 --> 00:05:33.000 good. Good for you. She goes, No. Can you help 00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:35.879 me carry it back to your car? And then I said, 00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:39.079 Well, how much did you win? And her response 00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:45.459 was literally. I don't know. I was like, oh, 00:05:45.540 --> 00:05:48.699 no, I was like, oh, here we go. She texted me 00:05:48.699 --> 00:05:50.379 during the thing to be like, can I bid on that? 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:51.920 I was like, yeah, I mean, you're supporting it. 00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:54.600 It cuts. You go to look for those that have not 00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:58.379 been to like a nonprofit like benefit Gala dinner. 00:05:58.899 --> 00:06:01.540 Right. They do these auctions, these things all 00:06:01.540 --> 00:06:05.319 the time. Because what you're doing is the local 00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:08.040 businesses who are supplying the prizes, they 00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:11.319 don't. Make the the company pay for the prizes, 00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:14.860 right? So like the wine companies are like here 00:06:14.860 --> 00:06:17.639 have 20 bottles of free wine and go auction it 00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:20.779 whatever right they get a tax write -off when 00:06:20.779 --> 00:06:23.920 you buy it all the cash that you spend to auction 00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:28.420 buy it is Is given to the the nonprofit organization 00:06:28.420 --> 00:06:31.079 in this case the HRC the human rights campaign 00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:35.079 If you drink wine on game nights, dude, I wish 00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:36.879 you would drink more of that wine I've got so 00:06:36.879 --> 00:06:40.939 much No, you people do not go to the HRC in furry 00:06:40.939 --> 00:06:45.480 costume, or are you asking about the bar? The 00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:48.759 HRC is a formal event. Slightly furry. That's 00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:50.959 what it's called. Slightly furry. That is the 00:06:50.959 --> 00:06:56.579 name. Did you catch the question about pronouns 00:06:56.579 --> 00:07:00.240 in the chat? I did not. Where is that one? Are 00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:02.500 you sticking with them or are you going to see 00:07:02.500 --> 00:07:07.250 her now? Well, have we decided yet? So so much 00:07:07.250 --> 00:07:09.930 has happened in the past week. So literally that 00:07:09.930 --> 00:07:14.110 same week I did go talk about HRT in Seattle 00:07:14.110 --> 00:07:17.410 at a place called Planned Parenthood not a place 00:07:17.410 --> 00:07:19.529 I would have expected to be a good place to go 00:07:19.529 --> 00:07:22.610 talk to HRT. However, it is a great place. So 00:07:22.610 --> 00:07:24.430 if you're listening to this and you are thinking 00:07:24.430 --> 00:07:27.529 about transitioning I highly recommend Planned 00:07:27.529 --> 00:07:31.069 Parenthood why because as I was sitting there 00:07:31.069 --> 00:07:34.800 everyone coming and going was trans second They 00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:37.420 are super friendly, the nicest medical staff 00:07:37.420 --> 00:07:39.240 I have ever talked to because they're trying 00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:42.540 to put you at ease. Third, they will assign you 00:07:42.540 --> 00:07:46.139 a transition specialist that will help you with 00:07:46.139 --> 00:07:48.899 the entire process of working with surgeons and 00:07:48.899 --> 00:07:51.000 doctors and everything that you want, even if 00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:53.139 it's not something that they offer. And they 00:07:53.139 --> 00:07:55.040 work with the doctor and they work with your 00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:57.420 insurance company. So it's like a one stop shop. 00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:02.220 So that is really great. Again, did not expect 00:08:02.220 --> 00:08:05.459 Planned Parenthood to be Like the place to go, 00:08:05.540 --> 00:08:09.180 but evidently it is news to me. So there, you 00:08:09.180 --> 00:08:13.639 know, there, you know, so I did get clear to 00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:17.180 start HRT whenever I want. And then I did meet 00:08:17.180 --> 00:08:22.120 with the psychiatrist who stated that, yes, this. 00:08:23.459 --> 00:08:26.579 Everything kind of checks out and they I have 00:08:26.579 --> 00:08:28.779 to have like a second appointment with them and 00:08:28.779 --> 00:08:31.459 then they will be writing a letter to my insurance 00:08:31.459 --> 00:08:36.039 company. I'm stating that I have gender dysphoria. 00:08:36.279 --> 00:08:38.879 Why does that matter? Because I want insurance 00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:41.919 to cover everything and I don't want to pay out 00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:45.059 of pocket. So back to pronouns, why does this 00:08:45.059 --> 00:08:47.100 all tie to pronouns? I feel like the crazy guy 00:08:47.100 --> 00:08:49.580 from always sunny with the different strings 00:08:49.580 --> 00:08:53.799 and I'm just like, why does this matter? Me personally, 00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:57.500 I'm sticking with they them. This is a little 00:08:57.500 --> 00:09:04.850 weird. thing for me I Kind of feel like I have 00:09:04.850 --> 00:09:08.289 not this is me just me not speaking for the trans 00:09:08.289 --> 00:09:11.669 community at all I've been told I have a weird 00:09:11.669 --> 00:09:15.889 way of thinking about this whatever I am I feel 00:09:15.889 --> 00:09:21.090 like I have not earned she her pronouns yet, 00:09:21.090 --> 00:09:27.250 that is just me I am to each your own so I will 00:09:27.250 --> 00:09:30.679 switch to she her pronouns at some point, I think 00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:37.720 probably after I go through puberty of HRT. And 00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:41.899 we are testing out like a name change. So I don't 00:09:41.899 --> 00:09:45.059 know, I'll probably stay J on the channel. But 00:09:45.059 --> 00:09:48.899 who knows? That's that's everything. What else 00:09:48.899 --> 00:09:52.659 do you want to know? HRT also I have a eight 00:09:52.659 --> 00:09:57.740 pound Triangle block of Beecher's cheese in my 00:09:57.740 --> 00:10:03.500 fridge right now from the HRC event. There you 00:10:03.500 --> 00:10:08.940 go. It's a giant triangle of cheese. Beecher's 00:10:08.940 --> 00:10:13.759 cheese is fucking awesome. Yeah. Amazing. But 00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:17.240 that's a lot of cheese. Eight pounds of cheese. 00:10:21.340 --> 00:10:27.830 As the. The First I I'm gonna echo the chat and 00:10:27.830 --> 00:10:31.210 say good for you Jay.

So fuck 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:15.759 you. Jay knows how I feel anyway, but I do want 00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:21.960 to say yes. Okay. In case you guys didn't figure 00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:25.279 this out, this channel is a place where we talk 00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:28.340 about this kind of stuff as much as Jay is comfortable, 00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:31.960 right? Where we will talk about these things 00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:35.659 and we will have these subjects, okay? And if 00:11:35.659 --> 00:11:40.320 you're not comfortable with that, here's what 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:45.080 I'm gonna do, actually. If you're not comfortable 00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:49.940 with it, I wanna challenge you. I want to challenge 00:11:49.940 --> 00:11:53.740 you to stick the fuck around. Right? Don't be 00:11:53.740 --> 00:11:55.600 an asshole in chat because even if you don't 00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:57.440 agree with it and even if it makes you uncomfortable, 00:11:57.659 --> 00:11:59.480 that doesn't mean you need to open your mouth. 00:11:59.539 --> 00:12:01.440 We talked about this earlier in the show. You 00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.039 can keep some thoughts to yourself. Hold it in. 00:12:04.340 --> 00:12:06.639 But I do want to challenge you to stick the fuck 00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:12.879 around. I want you to stick around so that maybe 00:12:12.879 --> 00:12:16.029 you learn some stuff. And maybe just maybe I'm 00:12:16.029 --> 00:12:20.570 not saying we're trying to force an agenda. What 00:12:20.570 --> 00:12:24.750 I'm saying is, is. Allow for the fact that maybe 00:12:24.750 --> 00:12:27.169 the reason you're fucking uncomfortable is because 00:12:27.169 --> 00:12:28.690 you've been around it a whole lot and you just 00:12:28.690 --> 00:12:31.629 don't know a lot about it. And here's the thing, 00:12:31.629 --> 00:12:36.250 at the end of the day. Jay is still the person 00:12:36.250 --> 00:12:43.149 who. Who I go do movie reviews with, right?

You all need 00:16:28.659 --> 00:16:34.059 to watch shrinking. Oh, my God. It's one by the 00:16:34.059 --> 00:16:41.580 way. Real quick, talking about therapy. Everyone 00:16:41.580 --> 00:16:44.279 says, like, become a lawyer, become a doctor, 00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:49.799 become an engineer. Yeah. I talked to my therapist 00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:52.279 about, like, one, how do you become a licensed 00:16:52.279 --> 00:16:58.549 therapist? I can't. Hey, how much do they make 00:16:58.549 --> 00:17:02.669 like industry standard? How much do you typically 00:17:02.669 --> 00:17:05.710 pay fresh out of college? You have a license. 00:17:06.230 --> 00:17:11.410 How much do you get paid? Not much. Oh, it is 00:17:11.410 --> 00:17:16.509 a lot. Is it? It's a lot for that kind of therapist 00:17:16.509 --> 00:17:20.089 or for a straight counselor, for any sort of 00:17:20.089 --> 00:17:27.460 licensed therapist. OK. And they are making a 00:17:27.460 --> 00:17:31.779 hundred and thirty dollars per hour. And typically, 00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:36.940 she said her colleagues, all of her friends do 00:17:36.940 --> 00:17:41.359 somewhere around thirty two therapy hours per 00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:45.980 week. Do the math on that. Spoiler alert. It's 00:17:45.980 --> 00:17:48.279 like two hundred and twenty five thousand dollars 00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:51.279 a year. Yeah, but that's before they account 00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:53.099 for their overhead costs and stuff like that. 00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:57.190 Office do to do to do. So, no, that's if you 00:17:57.190 --> 00:18:00.309 work for an office like the office is paying 00:18:00.309 --> 00:18:04.529 you to be. Oh, yeah, that's what they pay. They're 00:18:04.529 --> 00:18:07.230 charging more. The office is charging more than 00:18:07.230 --> 00:18:10.349 that to cover their overhead costs like rent 00:18:10.349 --> 00:18:13.650 a check. Dog Dad said a career change on top 00:18:13.650 --> 00:18:19.679 of everything, Jay. Well, I that I mean. That 00:18:19.679 --> 00:18:22.700 is way. Can I can I hit that?

I take it 00:18:26.619 --> 00:18:30.380 that did not come to pass. Dang. You actually 00:18:30.380 --> 00:18:34.420 like I talk to people, don't you? My wife says 00:18:34.420 --> 00:18:41.039 words.
