It's totally bananas. 00:00:54.090 --> 00:00:57.829 I have frogged the entire Bananasaurus and started 00:00:57.829 --> 00:01:00.649 anew. The whole thing. The whole thing. The whole 00:01:00.649 --> 00:01:02.009 thing. The whole thing. Is this one smaller? 00:01:02.090 --> 00:01:03.890 It looks a little smaller. It is smaller. I am 00:01:03.890 --> 00:01:07.329 using a smaller hook. It looks like more sturdy. 00:01:07.469 --> 00:01:10.310 It looks better. It looks way more sturdy. Like 00:01:10.310 --> 00:01:12.349 the legs look sturdier. It's standing on its 00:01:12.349 --> 00:01:15.689 own and everything. Yes. I am learning crochet 00:01:15.689 --> 00:01:20.069 as I go. One stitch at a time. I love it. I'm 00:01:20.069 --> 00:01:22.329 just, you know, I'm really taking my time with 00:01:22.329 --> 00:01:26.969 it. So this is the Bananasaurus crochet pattern 00:01:26.969 --> 00:01:31.230 by Emerald Rose Crochet. I think I bought it 00:01:31.230 --> 00:01:34.530 on Etsy. I think you did. I vaguely remember 00:01:34.530 --> 00:01:37.629 that. I think I did. I'm using Big Twist Baby 00:01:37.629 --> 00:01:44.900 Bear. And I think the color is sunshine. That 00:01:44.900 --> 00:01:47.700 also sounds familiar. Or lemon drops. I'm not 00:01:47.700 --> 00:01:50.120 sure. I think it's sunshine and lemon drops and 00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:54.519 yellow. Are you done? No. Ew. It is yellow. It 00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:56.239 is bright yellow. It is. Fantastic. It looks 00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:59.140 like a banana. It's lovely. Yes. But since we 00:01:59.140 --> 00:02:02.079 last recorded, I have also made several octopi. 00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:05.760 Octopi. Octopi. The octopi are very cute. They 00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:08.199 are so cute. And do you know what? Frank's mom 00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:10.340 has taken every single one of them. I love that 00:02:10.340 --> 00:02:12.740 for her. I do too. Where is she putting them? 00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:17.319 I don't know. Oh, you don't know. I thought she 00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:19.740 was like, they're in her collection. All right. 00:02:19.740 --> 00:02:22.319 They are in her collection. And every time she 00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.080 sees me working on them, she's like, oh, is that 00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:30.960 for me? Sure is. I do like purple. Sure is. Love 00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:35.580 it. So if I finish one while I'm there, like, 00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:39.199 how can I say no? Oh, yeah, I know. She's just 00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:44.129 so cute. So Norma is getting all of. the octopi 00:02:44.129 --> 00:02:52.189 right now oh uh tina i have zero zilch nada i 00:02:52.189 --> 00:02:59.750 got nothing for you or me i just felt like singing 00:02:59.750 --> 00:03:01.650 it i thought it would make it more substantial 00:03:01.650 --> 00:03:05.909 of a segment okay that's it congratulations all 00:03:05.909 --> 00:03:08.669 right i'm happy for you thanks it's good to take 00:03:08.669 --> 00:03:13.400 a load off your plate Jess, I'm distracted by 00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:16.639 a cat in the box, but I am working still on the 00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:22.159 cat knit pullover by Andrea Rangel, and it's 00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.300 taking me forever, but I'm still trucking along. 00:03:24.419 --> 00:03:28.939 I've got almost a full cat. Almost a full cat. 00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:32.139 That's pretty good. I'm using Critical Hit Dye 00:03:32.139 --> 00:03:38.180 Sorcerer in the colorways, Displacer, and Embers. 00:03:39.340 --> 00:03:41.310 It's getting there. It is getting there. What's 00:03:41.310 --> 00:03:42.969 going to happen when you get past the yoke? Oh, 00:03:42.990 --> 00:03:45.669 God, who knows? I know. The yoke is taking you 00:03:45.669 --> 00:03:47.009 this long. What's going to happen when you have 00:03:47.009 --> 00:03:49.930 the miles of blue stock in it? Well, no, I haven't 00:03:49.930 --> 00:03:52.330 split for sleeves yet, so I feel like that might 00:03:52.330 --> 00:03:58.210 make it go a little faster once I do that. So 00:03:58.210 --> 00:04:01.490 we'll see. We're getting there. It's slow, but 00:04:01.490 --> 00:04:04.469 it's happening. Meg, what are you working on? 00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:07.599 A whole lot of not much. I mean, I've been working, 00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:11.199 quote unquote, on Winterlight by Meg Gadsby. 00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:13.819 I really do like this pattern. It's quite simple. 00:04:15.300 --> 00:04:19.839 But I'm kind of maxing out at maybe half a row 00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:25.579 a day. And that's like the norm. When I have 00:04:25.579 --> 00:04:27.560 to take the kid to gymnastics, I generally get 00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:29.500 a little bit more done because I actually have 00:04:29.500 --> 00:04:31.600 time to just sit and do nothing else but knit. 00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:36.379 I haven't really been going as fast as I would 00:04:36.379 --> 00:04:39.779 like, but it's a decent pattern. It's a good 00:04:39.779 --> 00:04:44.040 pattern. The yarn that I'm using is Fiber Optics 00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:47.180 Cashmere Gradient in Texas Blue Bonnets, and 00:04:47.180 --> 00:04:50.000 it's really the perfect pattern for it because 00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.540 this yarn does not need anything fancy to really 00:04:52.540 --> 00:04:56.220 shine. I love the way that it's moving the gradient 00:04:56.220 --> 00:04:58.100 along. I can't wait to get to the really bright 00:04:58.100 --> 00:04:59.680 blue part because that's my favorite part of 00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:01.540 the yarn, but that's going to come at the end. 00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:06.439 So yeah, it's going. I'm just not spending as 00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:10.740 much time knitting as I previously had. Same 00:05:10.740 --> 00:05:13.879 girl, same. Me too, because I have picked up 00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:18.579 more hobbies. Yeah, same. Have I told you about 00:05:18.579 --> 00:05:21.920 my bread making yet? No. I've got a sourdough 00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:25.220 starter sitting on my counter now. Noise. Man. 00:05:26.300 --> 00:05:30.079 Soon. There will be lots of sourdough. You got 00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.480 to do sourdough pretzels. I'm going to make sourdough 00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:38.060 bagels. I'm very excited. But yes, pretzels too. 00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:41.360 She brought dinner rolls over for Easter. And 00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:44.639 my goddaughter probably ate half of them. She 00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.420 did. She had like a thing of butter next to her 00:05:47.420 --> 00:05:53.449 and she's just like. yes had rolls on rolls all 00:05:53.449 --> 00:06:00.149 right so in that vein of talking about other 00:06:00.149 --> 00:06:01.970 hobbies and things we've been doing we've had 00:06:01.970 --> 00:06:04.230 kind of an unofficial hiatus for the last couple 00:06:04.230 --> 00:06:06.550 weeks um things have been happening probably 00:06:06.550 --> 00:06:09.810 noticed we were not releasing episodes um and 00:06:09.810 --> 00:06:14.279 as we've not discussed publicly, but we've definitely 00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:17.399 discussed privately. There's a lot going on right 00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:20.480 now in the United States and the rest of the 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:23.019 world. So tonight we're going to talk a little 00:06:23.019 --> 00:06:25.759 bit about how we are dealing with that, what 00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:29.300 we are doing, how we are coping, what we are 00:06:29.300 --> 00:06:31.899 thinking, and we're going to take it from there. 00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:33.980 So we've already started talking about Drea, 00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:36.579 Drea with her bread. Bread. What else is going 00:06:36.579 --> 00:06:39.560 on, Drea? Crochet. Crochet and bread. That sounds 00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:44.899 beautiful. Isn't it? And I have also been playing... 00:06:44.899 --> 00:06:50.079 What is that noise? Ice Maker. And I have also 00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:53.319 been playing... They released for the PS5 an 00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:57.300 HD version of the Okami game. Oh, my God. That's 00:06:57.300 --> 00:06:59.480 a blast from the past. I heard that was coming 00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:01.759 out, but I forgot when the date was. Do you know 00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:03.360 what they're also doing? They're making a part 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:07.250 two. Ooh. I know. Like a sequel? Because they 00:07:07.250 --> 00:07:11.689 did like a prequel at some point. Two. That's 00:07:11.689 --> 00:07:15.829 exciting. That was a beautiful game. That was 00:07:15.829 --> 00:07:20.089 so long ago. I have also been enjoying quite 00:07:20.089 --> 00:07:25.790 a lot watching Frank play God of War. Which one? 00:07:25.829 --> 00:07:29.769 God of War is just... The first one. First one's 00:07:29.769 --> 00:07:31.949 pretty decent. Do you know who the voice actor 00:07:31.949 --> 00:07:35.240 is for Kratos? You should know this. I should 00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:37.300 know this. You should know this because I pegged 00:07:37.300 --> 00:07:39.779 it immediately. No, but you're going to tell 00:07:39.779 --> 00:07:41.740 us. I am going to tell you. It is Christopher 00:07:41.740 --> 00:07:43.639 Judge. That's right. And do you know what we're 00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.399 watching now? Yes. Stargate. Stargate. Nice. 00:07:46.980 --> 00:07:49.939 Stargate. Nice. It is so good. It is so good. 00:07:50.180 --> 00:07:53.560 Like, oh, Christopher Judge. Man, what a treat. 00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:58.649 I heard it. And I was like, yes. Nope. Yes. And 00:07:58.649 --> 00:08:01.350 Frank was like, what does that mean? Yeah. Well, 00:08:01.610 --> 00:08:04.189 Frank, now you're going to know. Here's the entire 00:08:04.189 --> 00:08:07.089 lore of Stargate. Nope. Didn't even do that. 00:08:07.170 --> 00:08:08.490 I was like, man, do you know what you got to 00:08:08.490 --> 00:08:10.550 do? You got to turn that game off because bam, 00:08:10.709 --> 00:08:13.670 movie. Yeah. You got to get through the movie. 00:08:13.689 --> 00:08:14.889 You got to get through the movie first because 00:08:14.889 --> 00:08:16.829 it sets everything up and then you can watch 00:08:16.829 --> 00:08:19.009 the series. That's how it goes. And the movie 00:08:19.009 --> 00:08:20.709 isn't that bad, even though the actors are different. 00:08:21.430 --> 00:08:25.149 Yeah. It's enjoyable. But the series is better. 00:08:25.310 --> 00:08:27.910 Richard Dean Anderson was a glow up. Yeah. Yeah. 00:08:28.250 --> 00:08:31.470 My dad and I only watched the series. We didn't 00:08:31.470 --> 00:08:33.330 start with the movie at all. We started with 00:08:33.330 --> 00:08:35.309 the series and we watched it all the way through. 00:08:35.610 --> 00:08:38.289 I cried and laughed with my dad through that 00:08:38.289 --> 00:08:40.490 whole series. I had no idea that your dad loved 00:08:40.490 --> 00:08:42.669 Stargate. My dad was obsessed with Stargate. 00:08:43.190 --> 00:08:45.889 Listen, the nerdiness didn't come out of nowhere. 00:08:46.009 --> 00:08:47.830 Okay. It definitely wasn't my mom. It was my 00:08:47.830 --> 00:08:51.340 dad. I feel like I missed out on so many nerd 00:08:51.340 --> 00:08:54.399 conversations. Oh yeah. My dad, my dad watched 00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:57.539 like every spinoff, every single, like he watched 00:08:57.539 --> 00:08:59.559 more than I did. I watched the original series 00:08:59.559 --> 00:09:01.740 with him, but there were like spinoffs that like 00:09:01.740 --> 00:09:03.600 I would come into the den and he'd be like, well, 00:09:03.620 --> 00:09:05.299 I'm like, is that Stargate? And he's like, Oh, 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:07.860 this is Stargate. Atlantis. Yeah. And I was like, 00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.379 Oh, okay. I actually never got into Atlantis. 00:09:11.620 --> 00:09:15.179 Yeah. But. Oh, my dad did. I've seen all of OT 00:09:15.179 --> 00:09:19.100 Stargate A plus. And you listeners should also 00:09:19.100 --> 00:09:22.639 watch Stargate because it is absolutely A+. Now 00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:25.620 that we've nerded out about Stargate. So sorry. 00:09:27.919 --> 00:09:30.600 But those are like all of my new things that 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:34.279 I'm very much into right now. Fantastic. I am 00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:37.039 making sourdough. I'm making rolls. Rolls on 00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:39.059 rolls on rolls. Actually, what's really good 00:09:39.059 --> 00:09:42.409 is like the focaccia bread. frank needs to stop 00:09:42.409 --> 00:09:44.169 asking me to make the cinnamon roll focaccia 00:09:44.169 --> 00:09:47.029 because i want to make other stuff and i have 00:09:47.029 --> 00:09:50.850 like this strawberry one lined up and man he's 00:09:50.850 --> 00:09:54.230 in for a treat if he stops asking for cinnamon 00:09:54.230 --> 00:09:57.629 rolls he's got to suspend his uh What's the word 00:09:57.629 --> 00:09:59.450 I'm looking for here? I was going to say suspend 00:09:59.450 --> 00:10:01.230 disbelief and that's incorrect. No, he needs 00:10:01.230 --> 00:10:03.809 to broaden his horizon. That's what I was looking 00:10:03.809 --> 00:10:05.909 for. That's what I was looking for. It's tough 00:10:05.909 --> 00:10:08.029 though.

Well, we don't often think of 00:11:27.379 --> 00:11:29.419 like knitting, crochet, crafting, et cetera, 00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:33.179 as like a luxury hobby. But when push comes to 00:11:33.179 --> 00:11:35.440 shove, a lot of times, especially nowadays, it 00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:38.200 is like most of us are not doing knitting or 00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:41.759 crocheting. You know, we're not making things 00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:47.399 for survival. And in times of uncertainty, luxuries 00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:49.340 are the first things to go. That's when people 00:11:49.340 --> 00:11:52.230 start to. kind of pare down their shopping pare 00:11:52.230 --> 00:11:56.529 down their their hobbies um and that's i think 00:11:56.529 --> 00:12:00.230 that's really is causing the the entire crafting 00:12:00.230 --> 00:12:02.629 world to be upheaved and it's really unfortunate 00:12:03.370 --> 00:12:05.850 You know, for me, I've actually noticed I'm sewing 00:12:05.850 --> 00:12:10.529 more because I'm mending more. And when I'm knitting, 00:12:10.629 --> 00:12:14.090 it's to create like patches and stuff. Like I'm 00:12:14.090 --> 00:12:16.070 literally making like little patches right now 00:12:16.070 --> 00:12:18.090 to go on the knees of a pair of jeans that I 00:12:18.090 --> 00:12:19.909 really love. But the holes have gotten so ridiculously 00:12:19.909 --> 00:12:22.570 big and I look like a... 13 -year -old teenager 00:12:22.570 --> 00:12:25.889 in 2006 who's about to talk about how her life 00:12:25.889 --> 00:12:28.490 is terrible and, you know, have my chemical romance 00:12:28.490 --> 00:12:30.409 in the background. So I don't want to do that 00:12:30.409 --> 00:12:33.649 as a 37 -year -old. So I want to patch up the 00:12:33.649 --> 00:12:35.710 holes. But the jeans are really comfortable. 00:12:35.950 --> 00:12:38.289 Anyway. I've actually been doing a lot of patches 00:12:38.289 --> 00:12:42.409 on the ladies' sweaters at work. Oh, yeah, yeah, 00:12:42.470 --> 00:12:45.149 yeah. Like picking up the stitches and creating 00:12:45.149 --> 00:12:51.580 new stitches there, which is fun. But difficult 00:12:51.580 --> 00:12:54.259 sometimes. Well, I feel good about it when I 00:12:54.259 --> 00:12:56.360 like fix something because I can wear it again 00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:59.279 or use it again. But it's definitely like you 00:12:59.279 --> 00:13:01.200 said, it's not this like, oh, I'm going to make 00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:04.460 a luxurious shawl or something like now I need 00:13:04.460 --> 00:13:06.659 to do practical stuff right now. Right. That's 00:13:06.659 --> 00:13:10.789 what we're down to. I love how I'm sitting here 00:13:10.789 --> 00:13:12.850 agreeing with you as I'm making a Bananasaurus. 00:13:12.990 --> 00:13:15.889 No, no, your Bananasaurus is so necessary right 00:13:15.889 --> 00:13:18.090 now, it's not even funny. Well, I don't think 00:13:18.090 --> 00:13:20.350 it's the crafting itself that is a luxury, but 00:13:20.350 --> 00:13:23.309 the buying of crafting materials is the luxury. 00:13:23.769 --> 00:13:27.590 And I think a lot of us recognize that we do 00:13:27.590 --> 00:13:31.590 have substantial stashes. Not anymore. You should 00:13:31.590 --> 00:13:33.970 see my stash now. You've downsized a lot. No, 00:13:33.990 --> 00:13:36.090 I think I'm down to about a quarter of what I 00:13:36.090 --> 00:13:39.360 had before. Yeah, no, like I'm... And if you 00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:43.200 don't know, like my stash was literally, it was 00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:47.279 a substantial amount for a single person. But 00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:52.000 at this point, I can fit it into like a six by 00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.299 three, not six, five by three cubby. Good for 00:13:56.299 --> 00:14:01.269 you. And it's not packed. Good for you. I actually 00:14:01.269 --> 00:14:03.490 have room to put like my project bags and like 00:14:03.490 --> 00:14:05.549 a couple of sets that I picked up. Allow the 00:14:05.549 --> 00:14:08.629 yarn to aerate. Yeah, like not like how I had 00:14:08.629 --> 00:14:10.850 it before where it was like, where is it? I don't 00:14:10.850 --> 00:14:12.750 know. You have to look behind the 20 pounds in 00:14:12.750 --> 00:14:16.610 front of it. But it's, yeah. No, I definitely, 00:14:16.710 --> 00:14:19.029 yeah, it's not. Definitely not as big as it used 00:14:19.029 --> 00:14:21.509 to be. And that's between selling and also just 00:14:21.509 --> 00:14:24.429 using. I've been using a lot too, so. So it is. 00:14:24.529 --> 00:14:27.570 It's, you know, I think it, I mean, we've definitely, 00:14:29.549 --> 00:14:31.909 downgraded we made announcement with critical 00:14:31.909 --> 00:14:35.230 hit about two months ago that we were going to 00:14:35.230 --> 00:14:38.429 stop using i think more than half of our bases 00:14:38.429 --> 00:14:42.250 um simply because we don't know what's going 00:14:42.250 --> 00:14:43.789 to happen with the tariffs we don't even know 00:14:43.789 --> 00:14:45.450 what's what's happening now i mean we're kind 00:14:45.450 --> 00:14:50.909 of hovering and hedging our bets but certain 00:14:50.909 --> 00:14:53.450 bases were not lucrative people were not buying 00:14:53.450 --> 00:14:55.529 them so we and it was also really hard for us 00:14:55.529 --> 00:14:59.580 to keep up with trying to oh you know have everything 00:14:59.580 --> 00:15:04.600 on 13 different bases a lot of yarn so i mean 00:15:04.600 --> 00:15:06.740 we downsized for that reason but there's also 00:15:06.740 --> 00:15:08.759 been a lot of like apprehension about you know 00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:10.879 how how is this going to affect us all of our 00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:15.659 bases are um you know come from overseas so how 00:15:15.659 --> 00:15:17.620 is this going to affect business and i think 00:15:17.620 --> 00:15:19.500 a lot of other businesses are in the same boat 00:15:19.500 --> 00:15:24.000 yeah at least when i'm getting uh the Small companies 00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:27.200 that I have talked to, you know, small batch 00:15:27.200 --> 00:15:30.259 dyers and stuff like that. It's a lot of that. 00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:34.820 It's, you know, my base is overseas. My dyes 00:15:34.820 --> 00:15:36.779 are from overseas. I can't afford to bring them 00:15:36.779 --> 00:15:39.620 in anymore. And I just can't do it anymore. And 00:15:39.620 --> 00:15:43.100 some of it's just in shipping now, too. Right. 00:15:43.259 --> 00:15:45.200 And if you're raising, you have to raise it. 00:15:45.220 --> 00:15:46.539 Well, you also get to a point where it's like 00:15:46.539 --> 00:15:48.259 the market's not going to stand for it. Like 00:15:48.259 --> 00:15:50.919 if to sell something, you have to raise the price. 00:15:51.950 --> 00:15:54.730 To a point where people are just not going to 00:15:54.730 --> 00:15:57.950 buy it. It's not a business model that can hold. 00:15:58.169 --> 00:16:00.389 Well, it's hard to buy things when you can't 00:16:00.389 --> 00:16:03.230 afford them. Exactly. Well, if your customer 00:16:03.230 --> 00:16:07.330 base can't afford it. But also if you can't afford 00:16:07.330 --> 00:16:11.669 to create the product without spending so much 00:16:11.669 --> 00:16:14.149 money that it's cost prohibitive to make it. 00:16:14.730 --> 00:16:17.929 It gets really tough. I had one of those dyers 00:16:17.929 --> 00:16:22.350 show me an inventory sheet. The price of the 00:16:22.350 --> 00:16:25.090 base didn't really change that much. But then 00:16:25.090 --> 00:16:26.970 she showed me the tariff that got applied to 00:16:26.970 --> 00:16:30.809 it. Say it was $2, the tariff was like $3 .50. 00:16:31.029 --> 00:16:33.309 Yeah. So you're paying more in tariffs than you're 00:16:33.309 --> 00:16:34.610 paying for the actual product. Yeah, it was like, 00:16:34.750 --> 00:16:37.509 and then it's like for her, she's like, if I 00:16:37.509 --> 00:16:40.470 raise my price to cover this tariff, people are 00:16:40.470 --> 00:16:42.710 going to say my yarn's ridiculous. Right. And 00:16:42.710 --> 00:16:43.690 I'm like, yeah, I don't know. Well, and that's 00:16:43.690 --> 00:16:46.210 the thing. It's like, it doesn't matter how beautiful 00:16:46.210 --> 00:16:50.139 your yarn is. there's market price. There's what 00:16:50.139 --> 00:16:51.899 people will afford. It's the same way like if 00:16:51.899 --> 00:16:54.620 say you're going to a seafood restaurant and 00:16:54.620 --> 00:16:58.679 you want to have a good lobster. Like there's 00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:01.000 a certain point that you can say market price 00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:02.679 for lobster, but there's a certain point where 00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:05.039 people are going to be like, okay, no, I don't 00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:07.859 want it that badly. And that's the way it is 00:17:07.859 --> 00:17:10.619 with anything. Like if it gets to the point where 00:17:10.619 --> 00:17:13.740 it's cost prohibitive, like it's costing you 00:17:13.740 --> 00:17:17.259 so much money to make it and people are not buying 00:17:17.259 --> 00:17:22.680 it. yeah so market cannot hold this is an economics 00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:25.059 podcast now correct which is terrible because 00:17:25.059 --> 00:17:28.490 let me tell you that was my lowest score on my 00:17:28.490 --> 00:17:35.950 praxis too. I take, I absolutely, no, I don't 00:17:35.950 --> 00:17:39.710 like that. I only passed the praxis because I 00:17:39.710 --> 00:17:41.910 had stellar grades in us world and government, 00:17:42.009 --> 00:17:45.230 but my economic score was dismal. I can hear 00:17:45.230 --> 00:17:47.369 my dad now just looking at me with so much shame. 00:17:47.369 --> 00:17:49.589 We are only mentioning economics to the point 00:17:49.589 --> 00:17:51.710 that we have actually experienced. Yeah, pretty 00:17:51.710 --> 00:17:54.390 much. Pretty much. This is, yeah, no, no, absolutely 00:17:54.390 --> 00:17:57.220 not. Disclaimer. here yeah this is just what 00:17:57.220 --> 00:17:59.940 the number of times my kids have asked me about 00:17:59.940 --> 00:18:01.740 tariffs and i'm like oh dear god please make 00:18:01.740 --> 00:18:04.099 sure i'm not messing this one up because economics 00:18:04.099 --> 00:18:07.099 and it's not my strong suit on a fortunate side 00:18:07.099 --> 00:18:09.200 yarn saver doesn't get affected by tariffs because 00:18:09.200 --> 00:18:12.140 i don't import anything i'm you know everything's 00:18:12.140 --> 00:18:17.220 domestic um but on a negative side when you know 00:18:17.690 --> 00:18:21.450 that it's hard to price items too because um 00:18:21.450 --> 00:18:24.910 the cost now that i might not have to buy you 00:18:24.910 --> 00:18:27.450 know deal with tariffs but everything else went 00:18:27.450 --> 00:18:33.170 up right my electricity went up i joined a uh 00:18:33.170 --> 00:18:35.369 collective it was like a fiber business collective 00:18:35.369 --> 00:18:39.289 and they she had a thread on there and she was 00:18:39.289 --> 00:18:41.470 asking us what are like the invisible costs that 00:18:41.470 --> 00:18:44.940 we're dealing with and i was just like electricity 00:18:44.940 --> 00:18:49.960 the cost of ziplock bags yeah you know like people 00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:52.200 don't think about that because like they're like 00:18:52.200 --> 00:18:53.599 oh yeah you just take a picture of the yard and 00:18:53.599 --> 00:18:55.740 throw it up i'm like no i have to like power 00:18:55.740 --> 00:18:58.920 my freezer your mailer bags like the mailer the 00:18:58.920 --> 00:19:01.720 labels the mailing labels the printer ink like 00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:03.740 people don't realize the amount of money that 00:19:03.740 --> 00:19:06.480 goes into running the water we spend more water 00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:10.380 oh god our water bill yeah the ziplock bags though 00:19:10.380 --> 00:19:12.700 i don't think you quite understand in my business 00:19:12.700 --> 00:19:16.099 i need so many because I have to separate fibers. 00:19:16.619 --> 00:19:20.099 And on top of separating fibers, I have to, before 00:19:20.099 --> 00:19:21.819 it's like officially assessed, I'm separating 00:19:21.819 --> 00:19:23.720 people's collections so that, you know, nobody 00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:27.880 gets mixed up. And it's, there's, and I, do I 00:19:27.880 --> 00:19:30.059 like using that much plastic? No, but it's a 00:19:30.059 --> 00:19:32.240 cleanliness thing. Like if somebody is compromised, 00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:34.700 I don't want it to compromise all the other fibers 00:19:34.700 --> 00:19:37.759 that I've got going on. Right. So I look at it 00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:39.880 as a health kind of like, I'm just trying to 00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:44.410 keep things clean. But. I was like, OK, I need 00:19:44.410 --> 00:19:48.349 to go get more gallon Ziplocs. Right. And I, 00:19:48.470 --> 00:19:52.230 you know, man, I was like, where do I buy these 00:19:52.230 --> 00:19:54.869 things? And then it's like I'm and then I'm sitting 00:19:54.869 --> 00:19:57.490 there going, I'm pricing Ziploc bags like I don't 00:19:57.490 --> 00:19:59.869 I didn't used to. I didn't used to because it 00:19:59.869 --> 00:20:01.849 was like relatively the same. It was relative 00:20:01.849 --> 00:20:04.779 like it was maybe. 50 cents difference. But now 00:20:04.779 --> 00:20:07.119 it's like, okay, like if I go over here, it's 00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:09.599 going to be, you know, like this much and I'll 00:20:09.599 --> 00:20:11.940 save this much off the top when I get this many. 00:20:12.059 --> 00:20:16.579 And it's, yeah. I'm definitely being a lot more 00:20:16.579 --> 00:20:20.259 conscientious. I can't say that word. Conscientious. 00:20:20.500 --> 00:20:25.349 That. the smaller thing like i know i was always 00:20:25.349 --> 00:20:28.109 about the bigger things but now it's like okay 00:20:28.109 --> 00:20:31.289 the electricity went up like 200 bucks so now 00:20:31.289 --> 00:20:33.390 i have to like cut from somewhere where am i 00:20:33.390 --> 00:20:35.529 going to cut so that i don't have to like necessarily 00:20:35.529 --> 00:20:39.029 raise prices or like or which i absolutely never 00:20:39.029 --> 00:20:41.710 want to do is reduce the amount of valuation 00:20:41.710 --> 00:20:44.910 i give when i'm paying out to people um so far 00:20:44.910 --> 00:20:48.549 my you know the method works but like If I can't 00:20:48.549 --> 00:20:51.890 get to a point where me, like, you know, I have 00:20:51.890 --> 00:20:54.289 a formula showing me how much it costs me to 00:20:54.289 --> 00:20:56.930 get this skein up to market. And when that exceeds 00:20:56.930 --> 00:20:59.329 what I'm making off of it, it's, you know what 00:20:59.329 --> 00:21:01.630 I mean? It's not going to end up being worth 00:21:01.630 --> 00:21:03.849 it. And I think a lot of people are making a 00:21:03.849 --> 00:21:05.769 lot of hard choices and we're seeing the results 00:21:05.769 --> 00:21:09.430 of that. We're seeing it on social media as different 00:21:09.430 --> 00:21:12.910 companies are either taking hiatuses or closing 00:21:12.910 --> 00:21:15.630 or changing their business models because the 00:21:15.630 --> 00:21:20.460 market is unstable. I had some collab shut down 00:21:20.460 --> 00:21:23.720 on me that I had from influencer marketing that 00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:26.539 I don't do like I don't do it like that's not 00:21:26.539 --> 00:21:28.779 my main source of income, but it was a nice side 00:21:28.779 --> 00:21:31.859 cash, right? No, I got like probably three of 00:21:31.859 --> 00:21:35.420 the ones that I was dealing with paused our campaigns 00:21:35.420 --> 00:21:38.099 because they don't not that they don't like me. 00:21:38.140 --> 00:21:40.500 They just can't afford to pay out influencers 00:21:40.500 --> 00:21:43.480 right now, you know, like it's affecting and 00:21:43.480 --> 00:21:45.019 then like, you know, you see these little changes 00:21:45.019 --> 00:21:47.819 here and there and. You know, if you don't have, 00:21:48.019 --> 00:21:51.640 like I said, if you were already skirting the 00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:54.720 line of being profitable, like it can really 00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:57.940 get you to a point where you're shutting down. 00:21:57.980 --> 00:22:01.160 And that sucks. That really sucks. Yeah, it is 00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:05.180 hard. It's really hard. Also, you know, in general. 00:22:05.950 --> 00:22:09.970 uh besides besides my wallet you know my uh general 00:22:09.970 --> 00:22:12.029 well -being well -being is great i'm probably 00:22:12.029 --> 00:22:14.690 going to be on 18 lists but other than that you 00:22:14.690 --> 00:22:18.730 know life's grand i fit i check a lot of boxes 00:22:18.730 --> 00:22:21.329 folks and i don't care about talking about it 00:22:21.329 --> 00:22:23.450 because i already know that i'm on 20 lists so 00:22:23.450 --> 00:22:27.130 it's okay i love how the number just like exponentially 00:22:27.130 --> 00:22:30.630 grows every time every minute a number yeah every 00:22:30.630 --> 00:22:33.450 every minute that we talk um there's another 00:22:33.450 --> 00:22:36.339 list being generated and it's most likely something 00:22:36.339 --> 00:22:39.039 about being like some kind of different and i 00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:46.839 fit right in i mean it's like okay i mean i feel 00:22:46.839 --> 00:22:48.720 like this is not how you want to find your people 00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:52.960 no not really um but you know if you want to 00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:57.500 hey Join the club, baby. But I've seen it even 00:22:57.500 --> 00:23:00.619 with like, you know, doing like different outside 00:23:00.619 --> 00:23:03.759 of like fiber stuff. I work with NAMI and we 00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:07.519 do and I do presentations in your own voice to 00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:09.619 like talk about in our own voice to talk about 00:23:09.619 --> 00:23:12.779 like what people with mental health challenges 00:23:12.779 --> 00:23:17.930 deal with. Just, like, without revealing any 00:23:17.930 --> 00:23:20.910 kind of privacy, but we had, like, probably a 00:23:20.910 --> 00:23:24.569 dozen or so people doing it, and it is a quarter 00:23:24.569 --> 00:23:27.809 or maybe even half of what we were doing because 00:23:27.809 --> 00:23:31.109 people dropped. Yeah. Yeah. That's what happens. 00:23:31.450 --> 00:23:33.809 I think you're going to see a lot of that in 00:23:33.809 --> 00:23:38.829 the next few years of people who are afraid or, 00:23:38.869 --> 00:23:45.490 yeah. Oh, definitely. Or tenuous positions. Right. 00:23:45.509 --> 00:23:49.990 Yeah. Yeah, you're going to see people pulling 00:23:49.990 --> 00:23:54.009 back or. Which is unfortunate. It is. All the 00:23:54.009 --> 00:23:56.390 algorithms are changing, too, on that front, 00:23:56.470 --> 00:23:58.589 too. It's kind of getting harder. You're seeing 00:23:58.589 --> 00:24:00.849 more, like, more things mentioned, more things. 00:24:01.440 --> 00:24:04.779 getting kind of like falling off of the algorithms 00:24:04.779 --> 00:24:07.380 like i because i notice a bunch of people i follow 00:24:07.380 --> 00:24:11.420 um a lot of their content doesn't show up on 00:24:11.420 --> 00:24:13.859 any of like my for use or anything like that 00:24:13.859 --> 00:24:16.339 whatever like on my instagram feed on anything 00:24:16.339 --> 00:24:18.279 like that i kind of have to go onto their page 00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:21.799 and find it and it's like they're kind of being 00:24:21.799 --> 00:24:24.420 pushed off to the side that or they're using 00:24:24.420 --> 00:24:27.279 less tags to keep themselves kind of out and 00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:29.160 i think you're gonna see a bit more of that as 00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:32.400 well so if you haven't seen stuff from your content 00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:34.400 creator for a while maybe check their page because 00:24:34.400 --> 00:24:37.200 they might actually be posting yeah i can understand 00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:40.490 posting less so I think my knee jerk reaction 00:24:40.490 --> 00:24:42.849 when everything happened was like, I need to 00:24:42.849 --> 00:24:45.190 delete everything and I need to like protect 00:24:45.190 --> 00:24:47.809 myself and my family. And I don't think there's 00:24:47.809 --> 00:24:49.690 anything wrong with having that as a knee jerk 00:24:49.690 --> 00:24:53.549 reaction. You know, all of us here identify as 00:24:53.549 --> 00:24:56.109 queer. All of us are some kind of neurodiverse. 00:24:56.210 --> 00:24:59.589 So I don't think like we want to necessarily 00:24:59.589 --> 00:25:04.299 like, you know, I think it's hard to like. to 00:25:04.299 --> 00:25:07.220 sit here and just be like oh it'll be fine because 00:25:07.220 --> 00:25:10.720 like we're here guys we're here and we have we 00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:13.160 have lovely things going on that are making that 00:25:13.160 --> 00:25:16.380 um more and more difficult to be in those categories 00:25:16.380 --> 00:25:21.000 but um i just think um in my boat anyway i went 00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:23.599 from knee -jerk reaction of i i don't want to 00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:26.359 you know i want to be as quiet as possible to 00:25:26.359 --> 00:25:29.480 i don't want to be quiet anymore i was very much 00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:33.269 on the quiet boat i was and i But, you know, 00:25:33.309 --> 00:25:40.230 I saw I was seeing some folks that are less privileged 00:25:40.230 --> 00:25:42.569 than I am. And I say that in a sense of like 00:25:42.569 --> 00:25:46.950 I'm a white woman and I present in a heterosexual 00:25:46.950 --> 00:25:49.910 relationship. And there are certain privileges 00:25:49.910 --> 00:25:52.549 that come with that. And I was seeing people 00:25:52.549 --> 00:25:55.710 not in that position who were still speaking 00:25:55.710 --> 00:25:59.170 out. And I thought to myself, well, if I'm not 00:25:59.170 --> 00:26:01.970 speaking out. even though i feel like i could 00:26:01.970 --> 00:26:04.390 be probably in a better position or better protected 00:26:04.390 --> 00:26:08.009 i'm only just opening up people in less of a 00:26:08.009 --> 00:26:11.809 position to be more ostracized and targeted so 00:26:11.809 --> 00:26:17.329 no come on come on down i'm available to this 00:26:17.329 --> 00:26:23.680 but like i just don't i don't yeah i'm it's It's 00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:26.660 crap, guys. It's crap. The amount of stuff that 00:26:26.660 --> 00:26:28.539 I'm doing in the background to make sure that 00:26:28.539 --> 00:26:32.019 I feel safe or that my family feels safe is ridiculous. 00:26:33.539 --> 00:26:35.460 Steps that I never thought I would need to take. 00:26:37.420 --> 00:26:41.220 Things that I never thought about because I had, 00:26:41.220 --> 00:26:44.599 you know, this quote unquote safety of like, 00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:47.460 oh, we live in a country that respects laws and 00:26:47.460 --> 00:26:53.450 stuff. I guess we don't do that anymore. We used 00:26:53.450 --> 00:26:57.819 to. We used to. But yeah, I just don't. And this 00:26:57.819 --> 00:27:00.480 is and it might sound political to you, but like 00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:04.299 it's there's no there's no politics when we're 00:27:04.299 --> 00:27:07.400 talking about like just being a person. I don't 00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:14.279 give a hoot. I don't give a hoot about what quote 00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:16.400 unquote side you're on. But I think if everyone 00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:18.579 realizes there's no more sides anymore, we just 00:27:18.579 --> 00:27:21.039 need to like we need to all come together as 00:27:21.039 --> 00:27:23.599 like a community. And we all need to support 00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:26.839 each other because I'll tell you what. People 00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:31.240 are stressed. Yeah. And I think being quiet stressed 00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:34.920 is the worst kind of stress. Oh, I agree with 00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:39.500 that 100%. It is. So it's the worst. It doesn't 00:27:39.500 --> 00:27:43.160 do anything for you. Your stress is that stress 00:27:43.160 --> 00:27:45.359 hormone goes through your body. The cortisol 00:27:45.359 --> 00:27:46.980 just goes through your body and destroys you 00:27:46.980 --> 00:27:49.380 in more ways than one. Is there an easy way to 00:27:49.380 --> 00:27:51.920 make it go away? No, not unless drastic things 00:27:51.920 --> 00:27:56.579 happen. But I think, you know. I don't know. 00:27:56.640 --> 00:27:58.720 I'm talking a lot. I just don't. I've been so 00:27:58.720 --> 00:28:02.720 frustrated just feeling like I'm, you know, initially 00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:04.779 in the beginning when everything started to happen 00:28:04.779 --> 00:28:07.880 after this election, just like, OK, well, you 00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:10.220 know, I got to delete everything off here because 00:28:10.220 --> 00:28:12.779 it identified me in these groups and I got to 00:28:12.779 --> 00:28:15.279 delete this and I have to hide that and I have 00:28:15.279 --> 00:28:20.339 to take this down. And no, nope. I don't want 00:28:20.339 --> 00:28:22.410 to do that anymore. I'm not going to shrink myself 00:28:22.410 --> 00:28:24.390 so everybody else feels comfortable. Well, I 00:28:24.390 --> 00:28:26.470 think, too, there's something to be said for, 00:28:26.529 --> 00:28:29.250 like, I don't know. I've always been pretty vocal 00:28:29.250 --> 00:28:33.269 about my political leanings. I'm a government 00:28:33.269 --> 00:28:35.829 teacher. Like, I keep it out of the classroom, 00:28:35.950 --> 00:28:37.490 like, how I feel personally, although my kids 00:28:37.490 --> 00:28:40.009 can probably guess. But at the same time, like, 00:28:40.150 --> 00:28:42.690 I don't think any of the things that I say are 00:28:42.690 --> 00:28:47.299 super radical. Like, if you're going to be mad 00:28:47.299 --> 00:28:49.759 at me for saying that all people deserve respect, 00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:52.880 all people deserve rights, you know, regardless 00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:58.259 of who they are, their backgrounds, that's on 00:28:58.259 --> 00:29:02.140 you. Like, you can be mad about that and that's 00:29:02.140 --> 00:29:05.559 fine, but I don't personally believe what I'm 00:29:05.559 --> 00:29:08.960 saying is that radical. I don't believe what 00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:15.880 I'm saying is bad. I mean, I don't know. Well, 00:29:15.900 --> 00:29:18.460 we grew up being told to respect everybody else. 00:29:18.700 --> 00:29:23.720 The golden rule. That's out the door now. It's 00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:30.460 a different type of golden rule. I know it sounds 00:29:30.460 --> 00:29:32.039 cliche. I've seen it like a million times on 00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:34.240 every single social media platform, but I'd rather 00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:37.880 be ostracized for who I include than included 00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:41.059 for who I exclude. Part of my job is making sure 00:29:41.059 --> 00:29:43.960 that everybody that walks through my door feels 00:29:43.960 --> 00:29:47.240 included feels accepted feels wanted regardless 00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:50.920 of who they are what they look like how they 00:29:50.920 --> 00:29:54.619 act and i try to do that in all walks of life 00:29:54.619 --> 00:29:57.559 so if someone's gonna be mad at me for that or 00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:00.220 say that i'm being political or i'm being divisive 00:30:00.220 --> 00:30:05.799 i mean okay that's on you like I can't change 00:30:05.799 --> 00:30:07.900 that. How dare you be nice to people? I can't 00:30:07.900 --> 00:30:09.720 change that. Did you just say you want to care 00:30:09.720 --> 00:30:12.859 about everybody? How dare you? That's against 00:30:12.859 --> 00:30:17.259 law B -6 -7. And in the clause, we should hate 00:30:17.259 --> 00:30:19.980 people that don't fit this paradigm exactly. 00:30:20.680 --> 00:30:23.279 No, but you know what I mean. It is. It's like, 00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:26.960 I don't know. I don't find that divisive. No, 00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:29.599 it's not. And that's your, you know, again, it's 00:30:29.599 --> 00:30:32.500 the whole idea of like, you know, we all love 00:30:32.500 --> 00:30:35.220 the idea that we must be inclusive. be kind but 00:30:35.220 --> 00:30:37.339 but then it's like but not to those people but 00:30:37.339 --> 00:30:39.160 not to that person but not put it in practice 00:30:39.160 --> 00:30:43.539 but not that and I agree with with what Drea 00:30:43.539 --> 00:30:46.740 said before like oh we were not raised that way 00:30:46.740 --> 00:30:50.019 like like we babies of the 80s and probably the 00:30:50.019 --> 00:30:52.480 90s and probably beyond we were all taught that 00:30:52.480 --> 00:30:54.359 you know love everybody be nice to everybody 00:30:54.359 --> 00:30:56.839 regardless of who they are but to be to be told 00:30:56.839 --> 00:30:59.519 that and then you know all of a sudden now we're 00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:01.970 adults and it's like hearing from from other 00:31:01.970 --> 00:31:03.769 people well not like that but not those people 00:31:03.769 --> 00:31:07.730 but those people don't count and no you know 00:31:07.730 --> 00:31:13.750 it's no guys i just want to exist like the worst 00:31:13.750 --> 00:31:16.309 part is is like the worst thing i'm ever gonna 00:31:16.309 --> 00:31:20.190 do in my life honestly is you know if i don't 00:31:20.190 --> 00:31:23.250 take my meds is i will not be able to find anything 00:31:23.250 --> 00:31:26.950 i will forget what i was doing about 10 minutes 00:31:26.950 --> 00:31:29.839 ago I'll also probably make a lot of doom piles. 00:31:30.380 --> 00:31:35.059 Also, I already do all those things. Like, long 00:31:35.059 --> 00:31:37.619 story short, it will all not affect anybody else. 00:31:38.140 --> 00:31:40.420 It will probably help the economy because I will 00:31:40.420 --> 00:31:42.420 randomly buy stuff and then forget that I bought 00:31:42.420 --> 00:31:44.700 it and then buy it again. Yeah, it's not going 00:31:44.700 --> 00:31:46.759 to, I guess my point being, it's not going to 00:31:46.759 --> 00:31:48.460 affect anyone else. It's going to make my life 00:31:48.460 --> 00:31:51.099 horrid, but it's not going to affect anybody 00:31:51.099 --> 00:31:54.839 else. Right. But that's a really good point. 00:31:54.980 --> 00:31:57.400 You know? It's not. It's just going to make my 00:31:57.400 --> 00:32:01.680 life suck. Right. You're not going to be making 00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:05.460 other people. things harder for society or government 00:32:05.460 --> 00:32:08.500 on a whole i mean you might upset your job here 00:32:08.500 --> 00:32:10.140 or there if you forget to do something but again 00:32:10.140 --> 00:32:12.299 those are these are personal these are personal 00:32:12.299 --> 00:32:15.160 issues like it's not affecting anybody else like 00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:17.480 that would be my job performance that would be 00:32:17.480 --> 00:32:20.220 you know right it's not affecting society at 00:32:20.220 --> 00:32:25.180 large exactly it is it is right the point is 00:32:25.180 --> 00:32:28.259 i'm not gonna affect you so like why do you care 00:32:28.259 --> 00:32:31.059 i don't think there's a lot there's a lot there 00:32:31.059 --> 00:32:35.809 about you know yeah why do you you know if i 00:32:35.809 --> 00:32:38.269 if i happen to marry patricia instead of patrick 00:32:38.269 --> 00:32:43.190 why do you care why do you care yeah you know 00:32:43.190 --> 00:32:45.269 i'm just saying better health care would take 00:32:45.269 --> 00:32:53.069 care of a lot of this let's not get crazy Listen, 00:32:53.150 --> 00:32:55.150 we're already off our rockers, okay? We've probably 00:32:55.150 --> 00:32:58.230 ended, I think now I'm on 53 lists if we're being 00:32:58.230 --> 00:32:59.950 honest. Tina, are you just doubling it every 00:32:59.950 --> 00:33:01.630 time we bring it up? Yeah, yeah. I feel like 00:33:01.630 --> 00:33:03.630 you are. Next it's going to be 106. You wait. 00:33:04.390 --> 00:33:07.230 Well, so in the vein of - Collecting them like 00:33:07.230 --> 00:33:11.609 Pokemon. I went through a similar, I kind of 00:33:11.609 --> 00:33:13.210 went through like back and forth at the beginning 00:33:13.210 --> 00:33:16.470 of the year because my job is literally to teach 00:33:16.470 --> 00:33:18.990 government. I mean, that's four out of my five 00:33:18.990 --> 00:33:21.230 classes are government classes. That's a list. 00:33:21.390 --> 00:33:24.950 Well, no. And then because it is, you're like, 00:33:25.009 --> 00:33:26.970 I have to teach authentically. Like, I have to 00:33:26.970 --> 00:33:30.670 teach, you know, what is what is truth. That's 00:33:30.670 --> 00:33:34.430 a sub list. But then, you know, the whole like, 00:33:34.509 --> 00:33:37.769 you know, report teachers that are are teaching 00:33:37.769 --> 00:33:39.799 things that shouldn't be taught. And I'm like, 00:33:39.819 --> 00:33:41.680 well, what's the standard of what should and 00:33:41.680 --> 00:33:44.960 shouldn't be taught? And that was really scary. 00:33:45.160 --> 00:33:47.539 I think there is a lot to be said of like, I 00:33:47.539 --> 00:33:50.240 wasn't sure how to handle it. And basically what 00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:52.180 I do at the beginning of every class now is we 00:33:52.180 --> 00:33:53.779 talk about current events. I have the kids bring 00:33:53.779 --> 00:33:57.079 up current events. But I let them kind of draw 00:33:57.079 --> 00:33:59.339 their own conclusions. Like I've always said 00:33:59.339 --> 00:34:00.940 from the start, I'm not here to tell you what 00:34:00.940 --> 00:34:05.519 to think. I'm here to present the facts, the 00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:08.559 material. Or to show you where to get the facts 00:34:08.559 --> 00:34:13.199 and draw your own conclusions. My goal is always 00:34:13.199 --> 00:34:14.960 when kids leave my class at the end of the year 00:34:14.960 --> 00:34:16.780 that they know why they believe the way they 00:34:16.780 --> 00:34:19.519 do. And I'm not here to tell them what that is. 00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:22.579 I just I always tell them my one answer that 00:34:22.579 --> 00:34:24.420 I don't want to hear from you is I don't know. 00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:27.099 That's just how my parents vote. Like there's 00:34:27.099 --> 00:34:28.739 nothing wrong with voting the same way your parents 00:34:28.739 --> 00:34:30.059 vote. Like there's nothing wrong with that at 00:34:30.059 --> 00:34:34.820 all. But I want them to know why. Exactly. And 00:34:34.820 --> 00:34:36.820 I don't care how, you know, which way that is. 00:34:36.880 --> 00:34:40.380 I don't care what your why is. Exactly. But I 00:34:40.380 --> 00:34:42.260 do want you to know your why. And I want you 00:34:42.260 --> 00:34:45.639 to understand that, like, we can't invent facts 00:34:45.639 --> 00:34:49.820 to to suit our story. Like the goal is if you 00:34:49.820 --> 00:34:53.119 can't find facts to back up your stance, you 00:34:53.119 --> 00:34:54.719 should probably start thinking about another 00:34:54.719 --> 00:34:59.880 stance. That's the goal. So and it took me a 00:34:59.880 --> 00:35:03.050 lot of time. And a lot of talking to my colleagues 00:35:03.050 --> 00:35:06.170 to come to that conclusion that like my presenting 00:35:06.170 --> 00:35:08.670 the facts or presenting them with the materials 00:35:08.670 --> 00:35:11.650 to find the facts, I'm not doing anything wrong. 00:35:11.809 --> 00:35:14.590 And if I don't do that, I'm doing a bigger disservice 00:35:14.590 --> 00:35:17.289 to them in the long run. That I need to teach 00:35:17.289 --> 00:35:21.190 them how to find good evidence and to encourage 00:35:21.190 --> 00:35:22.909 them. Teaching critical thinking skills. Exactly. 00:35:23.070 --> 00:35:25.429 And encourage them that if you can't find the 00:35:25.429 --> 00:35:28.050 evidence, then that means you got to find a new 00:35:28.050 --> 00:35:31.179 hypothesis. Stop it. Stop putting me on lists. 00:35:31.219 --> 00:35:33.019 You just said that you were critical thinking. 00:35:33.199 --> 00:35:35.340 I had to put you on, there's a list for that. 00:35:35.480 --> 00:35:39.340 I didn't say I was doing it. That's the name 00:35:39.340 --> 00:35:41.380 of the episode. There's a list for that. There's 00:35:41.380 --> 00:35:45.019 a list for that. There's a list for that. Or 00:35:45.019 --> 00:35:49.599 a sub list. There's a list for that. But yeah, 00:35:49.699 --> 00:35:52.699 and that's the thing. It's like, okay, I'm not 00:35:52.699 --> 00:35:54.320 going to lie. I've had a lot of sleepless nights. 00:35:54.420 --> 00:35:56.420 I had a complete crash out last week, as the 00:35:56.420 --> 00:35:58.840 kids say. I cannot make things true that are 00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:01.039 not true. But in the vein of Drea with her bread, 00:36:01.199 --> 00:36:03.980 I've been learning Italian. That's been my hobby. 00:36:04.380 --> 00:36:06.980 That's my hobby right now. Well, I found out 00:36:06.980 --> 00:36:18.269 two months ago. Ciao, come sta? Nice. Did that 00:36:18.269 --> 00:36:21.670 get added to your personal list? Absolutely. 00:36:22.230 --> 00:36:25.849 I have been learning Spanish. Oh, are you? I 00:36:25.849 --> 00:36:27.610 thought you were doing German. Senior Greg. I 00:36:27.610 --> 00:36:30.250 was learning German for a little bit, but that 00:36:30.250 --> 00:36:32.909 was very hard. German is tough. I am learning 00:36:32.909 --> 00:36:37.170 Spanish through Senior Greg on Instagram. Oh, 00:36:37.170 --> 00:36:40.050 beautiful. Let me tell you, Senior Greg is a 00:36:40.050 --> 00:36:44.989 blue puppet. He teaches you Spanish phrases every 00:36:44.989 --> 00:36:47.880 single day. Magical. And you know what? A plus. 00:36:48.039 --> 00:36:49.739 I thought you didn't like puppets. Do you know 00:36:49.739 --> 00:36:54.219 what? This one is like, what a banger. It is. 00:36:54.920 --> 00:36:58.500 The puppets are a banger. You know what? We're 00:36:58.500 --> 00:37:00.139 going to leave that right there. We're not. We're 00:37:00.139 --> 00:37:04.559 not. No, no, no. So he says the phrase in Spanish 00:37:04.559 --> 00:37:07.739 and then he says it again. But he has this ruler 00:37:07.739 --> 00:37:11.599 in his hand and he slaps each word as he says 00:37:11.599 --> 00:37:15.820 it. It's very forceful. It's hilarious. And it 00:37:15.820 --> 00:37:19.639 helps. like keep things in my head beautiful 00:37:19.639 --> 00:37:24.739 I like to go up to Frank and very aggressively 00:37:24.739 --> 00:37:32.059 say besame which means kiss me yes I know I do 00:37:32.059 --> 00:37:35.610 remember I did make it to Spanish five So poorly. 00:37:35.630 --> 00:37:38.269 So you're learning Spanish with a German accent. 00:37:38.369 --> 00:37:42.250 Got it. I am learning aggressive Spanish. Well, 00:37:42.349 --> 00:37:44.730 since you've all been learning different languages 00:37:44.730 --> 00:37:47.130 that are not English, you're all in lists with 00:37:47.130 --> 00:37:51.369 me. So congratulations. Amazing. Frank's mom 00:37:51.369 --> 00:37:53.469 thinks it's hilarious. I bet she does. She does. 00:37:53.510 --> 00:37:55.570 It is hilarious. She's like, you know more Spanish 00:37:55.570 --> 00:38:01.269 than Frankie does. To be fair, Patrick probably 00:38:01.269 --> 00:38:03.869 is more comfortable speaking Portuguese than 00:38:03.869 --> 00:38:05.889 I am. oh there you go he will look at me and 00:38:05.889 --> 00:38:07.829 go what did they say and then i'll be like and 00:38:07.829 --> 00:38:15.429 he'll be like oh okay hola he won't have half 00:38:15.429 --> 00:38:17.409 the words but he will look at me as a translator 00:38:17.409 --> 00:38:19.530 just to tell him what they meant so that he could 00:38:19.530 --> 00:38:22.909 try to say something back I've been using Coffee 00:38:22.909 --> 00:38:25.710 Break Italian, which is a it's a podcast. And 00:38:25.710 --> 00:38:27.250 I listen to them and they're very good about 00:38:27.250 --> 00:38:29.070 not only just repeating because I hate Duolingo 00:38:29.070 --> 00:38:31.230 has been pissing me off because they don't explain 00:38:31.230 --> 00:38:32.889 why I'm wrong. They're just like, you're wrong. 00:38:33.789 --> 00:38:36.010 And it took me weeks to figure things out that 00:38:36.010 --> 00:38:37.610 on Coffee Break Italian, they're just like, oh, 00:38:37.710 --> 00:38:40.170 you use a for this and in for this.

And then, because I don't have time to play 00:40:24.960 --> 00:40:27.739 games, but, you know, I live vicariously through 00:40:27.739 --> 00:40:29.679 watching them happen while I do laundry and stuff. 00:40:29.900 --> 00:40:32.500 And so I found out a whole bunch of dude bros 00:40:32.500 --> 00:40:34.679 really hated this new game called South of Midnight. 00:40:34.739 --> 00:40:36.059 So I was like, well, I got to check that out 00:40:36.059 --> 00:40:38.260 because it's probably awesome. And it is awesome. 00:40:38.579 --> 00:40:40.800 It's beautiful. I need to download the music 00:40:40.800 --> 00:40:46.340 because it's fantastic. And so, yeah, so I'm 00:40:46.340 --> 00:40:49.789 on. I don't know the chapter with the giant alligator 00:40:49.789 --> 00:40:52.030 right now. The guy is playing. Oh, that chapter. 00:40:52.510 --> 00:40:55.030 Yeah. There's a giant alligator. No, it's really, 00:40:55.050 --> 00:40:56.010 it's like about Southern. Is that going to get 00:40:56.010 --> 00:40:58.409 her on a list? Probably because people hate it 00:40:58.409 --> 00:41:00.730 because the lead character is a black woman and 00:41:00.730 --> 00:41:04.269 she's amazing. And it's about Southern folk tales. 00:41:04.550 --> 00:41:07.369 And I'm reporting you to the list right now. 00:41:07.449 --> 00:41:10.590 Just to confirm, you enjoy this? I do enjoy this. 00:41:10.590 --> 00:41:13.110 List it up. No, it's amazing. No, the music is 00:41:13.110 --> 00:41:14.789 great. I mean, I was going to say they were going 00:41:14.789 --> 00:41:16.429 to be on a list anyway, because I said alligator 00:41:16.429 --> 00:41:19.250 instead of crocodile. folk tales are amazing 00:41:19.250 --> 00:41:22.289 and dude bros don't like it it actually made 00:41:22.289 --> 00:41:25.190 me look up more of these folk tales because I 00:41:25.190 --> 00:41:27.429 knew about some of them but not all of them and 00:41:27.429 --> 00:41:30.250 they did a spin on them obviously for the game 00:41:30.250 --> 00:41:33.389 but they are really cool and so I'm enjoying 00:41:33.389 --> 00:41:36.050 that and I'm watching that now find your joy 00:41:36.050 --> 00:41:38.630 i i actually am considering because it looks 00:41:38.630 --> 00:41:41.010 like um they have a story mode which is cool 00:41:41.010 --> 00:41:42.969 because i definitely have no time to be doing 00:41:42.969 --> 00:41:46.289 hard modes on things but um i i am considering 00:41:46.289 --> 00:41:49.250 actually because you can get it on pc because 00:41:49.250 --> 00:41:51.550 i think it was mainly for xbox but which i do 00:41:51.550 --> 00:41:54.190 not have but i do have a pc so i'm like maybe 00:41:54.190 --> 00:41:56.710 when i have some time i will buy this game because 00:41:56.710 --> 00:41:59.789 it looks cool and if there's a story mode i might 00:41:59.789 --> 00:42:02.480 actually be able to get through it Frank is playing 00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:06.179 God of War on Story Mode. See, look. What I want 00:42:06.179 --> 00:42:09.519 to say is there's no neurodiversity at this table. 00:42:09.579 --> 00:42:12.139 Not a single person here. We are all neurotypical. 00:42:12.260 --> 00:42:16.400 We did not do anything. Nobody went off trail 00:42:16.400 --> 00:42:19.659 once, including myself. I love hiking, though. 00:42:19.780 --> 00:42:22.820 I went off trail like twice last weekend. I did. 00:42:22.820 --> 00:42:25.599 I went off trail like 90 times. I'm just laughing 00:42:25.599 --> 00:42:28.219 because we do all these side quests and then 00:42:28.219 --> 00:42:31.659 we get back to it. I climbed a rock. As I said. 00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:33.980 Jess did. Jess did go hiking and she climbed 00:42:33.980 --> 00:42:36.940 something and we were all very proud. Yeah. I 00:42:36.940 --> 00:42:39.579 only fell down once. Okay, but the size of the 00:42:39.579 --> 00:42:41.760 rock? Because that depends on the rock list. 00:42:41.880 --> 00:42:46.659 My ankle said no. Comparative to Dwayne the Rock 00:42:46.659 --> 00:42:49.219 Johnson, how big was the rock you climbed? Wait, 00:42:49.219 --> 00:42:54.010 what? It was a bunch of little rocks that made 00:42:54.010 --> 00:42:56.429 up like a bigger rock than Dwayne the Rock Johnson. 00:42:56.690 --> 00:42:59.269 I like that. Yeah. It had a good view. It did 00:42:59.269 --> 00:43:00.710 have a good view. It sounds like it had a good 00:43:00.710 --> 00:43:02.690 vibe too. Yeah. That was pretty good. It was 00:43:02.690 --> 00:43:06.389 nice. Okay. Nope. We're going to, we're going 00:43:06.389 --> 00:43:08.550 to just, we're going to put that down. I just 00:43:08.550 --> 00:43:10.289 wanted to see. Nope. We're just going to let 00:43:10.289 --> 00:43:12.289 that one sit. I wanted to see. We're going to 00:43:12.289 --> 00:43:16.530 let that one cook. Nope. You're going to, you're 00:43:16.530 --> 00:43:18.869 going to let that one cook. A hundred percent. 00:43:19.579 --> 00:43:24.380 Well, now that we're on 347 lists. Man, you like, 00:43:24.500 --> 00:43:29.820 wow. We're going to end at 690 something. Yeah, 00:43:29.860 --> 00:43:35.920 in the last two microseconds. Oh, God. Is this 00:43:35.920 --> 00:43:38.579 our combined list? Wait a second. Maybe that 00:43:38.579 --> 00:43:42.199 is actually the best point of action is to make 00:43:42.199 --> 00:43:44.460 so many lists that they can't keep up with all 00:43:44.460 --> 00:43:48.130 the lists. It'll blow up the computer. We got 00:43:48.130 --> 00:43:51.150 to make more lists, but like really obnoxious 00:43:51.150 --> 00:43:53.150 lists. Like it'll be like the garden venture 00:43:53.150 --> 00:43:58.329 brothers, you know, the one that they short circuit 00:43:58.329 --> 00:44:01.489 by saying weird stuff. Oh yeah. Because he's 00:44:01.489 --> 00:44:03.690 a, he's a robot and he's only like programmed 00:44:03.690 --> 00:44:05.869 to say so many things. So if you start saying 00:44:05.869 --> 00:44:08.750 gibberish, it just falls apart. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty 00:44:08.750 --> 00:44:12.670 much. Keep it weird folks. Keep it weird. Is 00:44:12.670 --> 00:44:15.860 this a yarn podcast? Yeah. Can we go back to 00:44:15.860 --> 00:44:18.760 tariffs? No, I don't want to go back to tariffs. 00:44:19.179 --> 00:44:21.739 That was enough economics for one day. No, but 00:44:21.739 --> 00:44:24.159 keep being your weird, yarny selves. Yeah. Be 00:44:24.159 --> 00:44:25.980 your weird, yarny selves. Do what makes you happy. 00:44:26.059 --> 00:44:27.980 If it's not yarn right now, that's cool. And 00:44:27.980 --> 00:44:31.019 if you don't feel like you're in a safe predicament 00:44:31.019 --> 00:44:33.659 right now, just know that we're here to be a 00:44:33.659 --> 00:44:36.300 little safe haven. We are here for you in these 00:44:36.300 --> 00:44:39.360 trying times. Right here. Right here. Right here 00:44:39.360 --> 00:44:42.860 in our little stash. No, that sounds druggy. 00:44:45.030 --> 00:44:49.070 Oh my God. You are going to have to take a hatchet 00:44:49.070 --> 00:44:53.949 to this episode. I honestly might do a voiceover 00:44:53.949 --> 00:44:57.619 that's like. Due to the prolific nature of this 00:44:57.619 --> 00:45:00.840 episode, we had to modify and edit in order to 00:45:00.840 --> 00:45:03.960 protect the identities and the safety of the 00:45:03.960 --> 00:45:07.119 cast members. But it all seemed like a voice 00:45:07.119 --> 00:45:09.639 modifier. You know, like the Law and Order voice? 00:45:11.280 --> 00:45:13.500 These are our stories. These are our stories. 00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:20.179 All right. And that's all we have for this episode. 00:45:20.800 --> 00:45:23.559 Shout out to our sponsor, as always, Jimmy Beans 00:45:23.559 --> 00:45:26.420 Wool at JimmyBeansWool .com. They got great stuff. 00:45:26.460 --> 00:45:28.920 They do have real good stuff. I actually just 00:45:28.920 --> 00:45:32.079 ordered their, what's it? They had like an Easter 00:45:32.079 --> 00:45:34.159 bundle. Like it was a three pairing. Oh, the 00:45:34.159 --> 00:45:37.059 bunny bag. Yes. And I got the carrot cake. Oh, 00:45:37.079 --> 00:45:39.159 it's so pretty. That looked really good. It is 00:45:39.159 --> 00:45:42.139 so pretty. God, I love carrot cake. It's just, 00:45:42.219 --> 00:45:44.219 it's like a, it's like an orange tonal and a 00:45:44.219 --> 00:45:46.440 green tonal and like a whitish tonal. Love it. 00:45:46.440 --> 00:45:49.059 Love that.
