00:01:22.982 --> 00:01:27.882 That was the live studio audience we were filming in front of, of course, on this, the Late Show with Salt Cravings. 00:01:29.722 --> 00:01:37.742 So tell me, Clair, you know, you've got a lot of projects going on, of course, as we know. 00:01:37.762 --> 00:01:39.982 Why would you call me out like this? 00:01:43.662 --> 00:01:44.942 Oh, yeah. 00:01:45.262 --> 00:01:48.542 Do you want to tell us about what you're working on right now? 00:01:49.102 --> 00:01:52.362 Yeah, I'm working on, it's actually a biopic. 00:01:52.622 --> 00:02:02.402 It's about this girl who takes on too many projects and then never finishes any of them and instead just starts like 50 different projects. 00:02:02.482 --> 00:02:05.142 And eventually they all come to a head. 00:02:05.262 --> 00:02:06.442 And there's a whole thing. 00:02:07.242 --> 00:02:14.782 There's like a subplot about magical girl stuff and there's another universe where she has to save it as well. 00:02:15.542 --> 00:02:23.142 And then ultimately her friendships all end because she has made too many commitments that she can't uphold. 00:02:23.282 --> 00:02:29.702 And her life comes to an end at the very beginning, actually. 00:02:29.722 --> 00:02:31.722 It's about her ghost. 00:02:31.742 --> 00:02:33.102 That's quite a setup for a movie. 00:02:35.382 --> 00:02:36.742 And so tell me, when is that one coming out? 00:02:37.362 --> 00:02:38.842 Yesterday, actually. 00:02:38.902 --> 00:02:41.162 It went right to on demand. 00:02:41.402 --> 00:02:42.902 I don't know if theaters didn't want this one. 00:02:42.922 --> 00:02:45.642 I should have known that. 00:02:48.322 --> 00:02:51.442 So do you just push a button or like, how do you... 00:02:52.022 --> 00:02:53.522 Look out at the audience, Clair. 00:02:53.542 --> 00:02:57.922 Don't you see the live studio audience today for our show today? 00:02:59.922 --> 00:03:01.322 You have to be cool. 00:03:01.342 --> 00:03:04.242 You have to make them believe that there's a live studio audience. 00:03:04.762 --> 00:03:13.502 I mean, look, if you can't make me believe that there's a live studio audience, how am I supposed to believe that they believe that there's a live studio audience, right? 00:03:13.502 --> 00:03:17.122 It's all like, I'm an actor, but you got to give me something to work with. 00:03:17.902 --> 00:03:18.882 Of course, of course. 00:03:19.622 --> 00:03:21.102 No, very, very, very funny. 00:03:21.322 --> 00:03:22.842 We're just going to go to commercial. 00:03:23.782 --> 00:03:27.682 And when we come back, let's start with your first craving. 00:03:28.802 --> 00:03:30.162 OK, that was the cut to commercial. 00:03:30.202 --> 00:03:31.662 So now no one can hear us. 00:03:34.862 --> 00:03:36.122 So what's your first craving going to be? 00:03:36.862 --> 00:03:40.682 Oh, wait, are we just going to are we not going to talk about it on the show? 00:03:40.782 --> 00:03:42.802 Are we going to just cut back? 00:03:42.822 --> 00:03:45.442 Tell me it and then I'll and then I'll I'll bring us back in. 00:03:45.462 --> 00:03:47.682 I just want to know how to, you know, how to how to get us back in. 00:03:48.902 --> 00:03:49.302 Great. 00:03:50.102 --> 00:03:54.582 I mean, I've just been really craving having a goddamn memory. 00:03:55.982 --> 00:03:57.162 That's that's a really good craving. 00:03:57.182 --> 00:03:57.482 All right. 00:03:57.502 --> 00:04:00.002 Let me let me let me just bring us bring us in. 00:04:00.022 --> 00:04:00.342 All right. 00:04:00.842 --> 00:04:06.402 Hey, everyone, we are back and we are just ready to start out with with Claire's first first craving here today. 00:04:06.422 --> 00:04:09.822 Now, Clair, tell me, what do you remember about what your craving is? 00:04:12.902 --> 00:04:16.022 Uh, God, we just talked about this, didn't we? 00:04:17.222 --> 00:04:19.642 Like, I just told you, did we? 00:04:19.642 --> 00:04:21.522 I thought I told you what my craving was. 00:04:22.642 --> 00:04:24.262 Oh, no, no, no, no. 00:04:24.842 --> 00:04:28.822 And no, you you have it on the show yet on the show that we're on. 00:04:29.282 --> 00:04:30.662 Said what the craving is. 00:04:32.682 --> 00:04:33.702 Oh, okay. 00:04:34.062 --> 00:04:40.742 Um, yeah, I've just been really craving having I can't put my finger on it. 00:04:43.882 --> 00:04:46.062 Um, can you help? 00:04:47.602 --> 00:04:48.102 Yeah. 00:04:48.262 --> 00:04:56.702 Well, what you were saying to me before the show started backstage, of course, was you were saying that it was about memory and wanting to have a memory. 00:04:56.902 --> 00:04:58.182 Why would I say memory? 00:04:58.202 --> 00:04:59.622 I have perfect memory. 00:05:03.602 --> 00:05:06.262 So tell me, Clair, uh, how? 00:05:06.542 --> 00:05:09.702 OK, so so your craving is having a goddamn memory. 00:05:09.922 --> 00:05:10.982 Did I say that? 00:05:13.322 --> 00:05:15.182 You can't keep throwing those jokes. 00:05:15.202 --> 00:05:17.282 You're the one who keeps going with the bit. 00:05:19.462 --> 00:05:23.322 Yeah, because my bit was the funniest bit we've ever done on this show of all time. 00:05:24.022 --> 00:05:25.122 The best bit we've ever done. 00:05:25.162 --> 00:05:27.302 It was an all time bit. 00:05:27.322 --> 00:05:35.222 It's going to when someone makes the best of Salt Cravings, it's the one of them is going to be that time that Brianna pretended she was the host of a late night talk show. 00:05:36.442 --> 00:05:40.402 Soon you're just going to be up there with like Kimmy Smedal or whatever. 00:05:40.802 --> 00:05:44.162 What's that guy's name? 00:05:44.302 --> 00:05:50.902 I believe you're thinking of you're thinking of Jimmy John. 00:05:50.922 --> 00:05:51.162 Yeah. 00:05:51.182 --> 00:05:51.622 Fergie. 00:05:52.002 --> 00:05:54.962 Fergie has her own like late night show. 00:05:54.982 --> 00:05:56.582 I don't know. 00:05:56.602 --> 00:05:57.822 Jimmy John Fergie. 00:05:58.262 --> 00:06:01.082 Oh, I didn't realize Fergie was her family name. 00:06:01.922 --> 00:06:02.402 Yeah. 00:06:02.422 --> 00:06:05.722 Well, of course, she's she's that's so like formal. 00:06:05.902 --> 00:06:11.322 Imagine like becoming an amazing celebrity and then going by your last name. 00:06:11.342 --> 00:06:13.242 That'd be a little weird. 00:06:13.502 --> 00:06:19.762 It's very especially brave for the two of us because of our last names being Ross and Price. 00:06:20.322 --> 00:06:23.742 What if we only introduce ourselves as Ross and Price now? 00:06:24.482 --> 00:06:26.862 OK, so we're going to do the whole bit from the beginning. 00:06:27.202 --> 00:06:30.822 This time, I'm only going to call yourself Price and I'm going to call you Ross. 00:06:30.842 --> 00:06:32.682 And that's going to go from the top. 00:06:32.782 --> 00:06:33.942 Three, two, one, break. 00:06:38.842 --> 00:06:41.322 How do we get a goddamn memory? 00:06:42.202 --> 00:06:44.522 What if we were to simply... 00:06:45.342 --> 00:06:46.282 Write things down. 00:06:47.182 --> 00:06:47.882 No, that's... 00:06:49.002 --> 00:06:50.242 No, that doesn't work. 00:06:50.262 --> 00:06:51.102 Trust me, I've been there. 00:06:53.302 --> 00:06:54.722 So we all hate Harry Potter. 00:06:55.302 --> 00:07:02.102 But there is that moment when one of them puts their memories in a memory pool. 00:07:02.262 --> 00:07:05.062 Yeah, we did talk about that last time. 00:07:05.422 --> 00:07:06.742 We did talk about that last time. 00:07:06.762 --> 00:07:07.862 Yeah, I was wondering when that had come up. 00:07:08.122 --> 00:07:10.742 We've never done a memory-related craving before, right? 00:07:10.762 --> 00:07:11.182 Have we? 00:07:11.562 --> 00:07:14.062 I'm almost certainly not sure. 00:07:14.102 --> 00:07:16.102 Honestly, I'm almost certainly not sure. 00:07:16.162 --> 00:07:17.602 That is the answer. 00:07:17.622 --> 00:07:20.582 If I had a memory, I could tell you, but I do not, so... 00:07:21.022 --> 00:07:22.142 Yep, and you know what? 00:07:22.482 --> 00:07:25.622 If we have, it's kind of funny, isn't it, that we can't remember? 00:07:25.962 --> 00:07:27.002 It's a little funny. 00:07:27.562 --> 00:07:33.062 Clearly our last go at this craving didn't work super well since we can't remember whether we've done it before or not. 00:07:33.382 --> 00:07:34.882 So maybe we need a new solution. 00:07:34.902 --> 00:07:36.682 Okay, so what if we were to... 00:07:37.162 --> 00:07:39.502 You know how they talk about downloading more RAM? 00:07:40.262 --> 00:07:43.122 I do know the joke of downloading more RAM, yes? 00:07:43.382 --> 00:07:47.442 Yes, the way that you download more RAM, a thing that you can totally do. 00:07:47.842 --> 00:07:48.202 Right. 00:07:48.382 --> 00:07:50.742 So what if you could download more RAM into your brain? 00:07:52.302 --> 00:07:53.742 So you're... 00:07:53.982 --> 00:07:56.542 Okay, so I do have a question about this. 00:07:57.162 --> 00:08:04.742 I think the better equivalency, not to be the pedantic computer nerd, but is to have an extra hard drive. 00:08:06.022 --> 00:08:08.102 But Clair, think about it. 00:08:08.462 --> 00:08:11.562 Wouldn't you like to be able to randomly access your memory? 00:08:14.622 --> 00:08:19.962 I'm sure you would love to be able to access your memory randomly at any time you need. 00:08:20.182 --> 00:08:25.702 The biggest question is, is this an internal or an external memory? 00:08:25.942 --> 00:08:30.982 Can I unhook this memory or is this something that's built into my brain? 00:08:32.582 --> 00:08:34.942 I think it's whatever you want. 00:08:34.962 --> 00:08:39.022 Would you rather have it built in or would you rather have a place where you can store memories? 00:08:39.722 --> 00:08:47.082 It is a little hard because if you did build it in, it would probably just be screwed on to your head. 00:08:47.102 --> 00:08:57.422 And also, I'm getting intense flashbacks now to a memory hat that we might have created, which does just sound very us first and foremost. 00:08:58.262 --> 00:09:00.382 But also is a great solution to this. 00:09:01.022 --> 00:09:02.742 Perhaps we've already done this one. 00:09:03.022 --> 00:09:07.962 I think we might have arrived at this conclusion in a different way. 00:09:08.002 --> 00:09:24.682 But instead of an external solution, like a memory hat, which who knows, maybe you can just get a lovely sun hat, and it's actually just made out of brain, but it looks like a sun hat, and it just extends your brain capacity. 00:09:25.082 --> 00:09:26.322 What would that feel like? 00:09:26.842 --> 00:09:28.482 Do you think it would dry out in the sun? 00:09:28.882 --> 00:09:30.522 Probably wouldn't last in the sun. 00:09:31.002 --> 00:09:32.922 Maybe that's why it has to be inside you. 00:09:32.942 --> 00:09:37.082 What if we were to just start replacing unnecessary organs in your body with more brain? 00:09:37.162 --> 00:09:40.402 All right, can you list some unnecessary organs for me, Brianna? 00:09:40.522 --> 00:09:41.942 Appendix. 00:09:41.962 --> 00:09:43.762 Not unnecessary, we learned. 00:09:44.002 --> 00:09:44.642 Appendix. 00:09:45.822 --> 00:09:47.162 Appendix unnecessary. 00:09:47.522 --> 00:09:48.922 Liver, who needs it? 00:09:49.042 --> 00:09:51.362 You got two of them, I think. 00:09:51.842 --> 00:09:52.442 Fuck it. 00:09:52.882 --> 00:09:54.122 Brain intestines. 00:09:55.322 --> 00:09:56.142 Sorry, what? 00:09:56.502 --> 00:09:57.762 Brain intestines. 00:09:58.462 --> 00:09:59.162 What are those? 00:09:59.302 --> 00:10:01.522 What is a brain intestine? 00:10:01.902 --> 00:10:04.742 You take intestines and you convert it into a brain. 00:10:05.262 --> 00:10:10.542 Oh, I thought you were saying this is something we already had, and I was very concerned. 00:10:10.702 --> 00:10:12.062 I think you were shitting out of... 00:10:13.922 --> 00:10:16.202 I mean, they do kind of just look like brains already. 00:10:16.602 --> 00:10:18.442 True, they do, so you're pretty close. 00:10:18.462 --> 00:10:21.262 I mean, if you think about it, you don't need most of the organs in your body. 00:10:21.822 --> 00:10:23.482 They can all kind of be replaced with brains. 00:10:23.702 --> 00:10:38.562 We could just sort of reroute the digestive system, you know, like instead of a complex series of tubes that internally take in the nutrition, what we can do is we can kind of just have it stop at the stomach. 00:10:38.582 --> 00:10:49.982 Now, if we give every person sort of like a cremation stomach, have you ever seen a cremator, how it just gets really, really, really hot, and basically the only things left are like bones? 00:10:50.382 --> 00:11:04.062 We don't usually eat bones, so I think we'll be good if we just change our stomach into, you know, like a cremation oven, and then we just sort of use the rest of the space for bottom brain. 00:11:05.482 --> 00:11:05.882 Right. 00:11:06.322 --> 00:11:08.162 Yeah, I think that that makes sense to me. 00:11:08.382 --> 00:11:10.762 So that feels like the easy part, right? 00:11:10.782 --> 00:11:12.482 Like converting the intestines in the brain. 00:11:12.502 --> 00:11:17.522 They already kind of just look like brains, like I mean, I'm sure science has already figured it out. 00:11:17.542 --> 00:11:20.082 I'm, you know, I'm going to just assume that's a yes. 00:11:20.482 --> 00:11:23.502 I think what about like cremation stomach? 00:11:23.522 --> 00:11:25.402 How are we going to make that a reality? 00:11:25.502 --> 00:11:25.802 Right. 00:11:25.822 --> 00:11:27.082 Because that can get pretty hot. 00:11:27.262 --> 00:11:30.462 Because once we solve that, everything else just falls into place. 00:11:30.822 --> 00:11:37.002 So the first thing that you need is a way to heat proof it so that it doesn't burn up the rest of you. 00:11:38.362 --> 00:11:41.622 So we need some heat proof shielding to go around it. 00:11:41.942 --> 00:11:46.782 And that heat proof shielding also has to be totally cool with like being in your body. 00:11:47.182 --> 00:11:54.202 There's like those bacteria that live near hot vents at the bottom of the ocean. 00:11:54.642 --> 00:11:56.782 What if we made a bacteria wall? 00:11:57.562 --> 00:12:00.782 What if we put more bacteria in your stomach? 00:12:01.182 --> 00:12:05.662 I figured out the perfect biologically sound and totally normal solution. 00:12:06.302 --> 00:12:07.622 Extra bacteria. 00:12:07.982 --> 00:12:09.182 Extra bacteria. 00:12:09.202 --> 00:12:17.362 We're just gonna make a snack that you can eat that's gonna turn your stomach into an irrefutable fire machine. 00:12:17.382 --> 00:12:25.382 And not only is this great for, you know, digestion, it basically means you can eat whatever you want except bones. 00:12:25.382 --> 00:12:27.002 I just need to make that very clear. 00:12:27.022 --> 00:12:28.162 Do not eat bones. 00:12:28.862 --> 00:12:30.522 Or bone-like substances. 00:12:31.082 --> 00:12:31.342 Oh, wait. 00:12:31.422 --> 00:12:32.562 It's gotta be multiple. 00:12:33.062 --> 00:12:34.042 No, you can eat bones. 00:12:34.082 --> 00:12:35.102 I've changed my mind. 00:12:35.282 --> 00:12:37.042 You can absolutely eat bones. 00:12:37.502 --> 00:12:39.802 We're just gonna have to learn how to eat like an owl. 00:12:41.462 --> 00:12:44.142 Okay, tell me a little bit more about eating like an owl. 00:12:44.462 --> 00:12:48.902 Have you ever dissected the pellets that owls cough up? 00:12:49.842 --> 00:12:50.322 No. 00:12:50.642 --> 00:12:51.042 Really? 00:12:51.742 --> 00:13:03.882 So owls will eat the animal whole, usually a mouse, and then they will digest all of the edible parts, and then they will cough back up the bones and fur. 00:13:04.082 --> 00:13:06.062 So yeah, you could totally do that. 00:13:06.082 --> 00:13:08.122 We are just gonna have to learn to be more owl-like. 00:13:08.542 --> 00:13:10.022 And also, if you think about it... 00:13:10.622 --> 00:13:12.082 It's more cat-like, too. 00:13:12.682 --> 00:13:15.902 We're just one step closer to cat boys and cat girls. 00:13:15.922 --> 00:13:17.162 That's what I'm proposing. 00:13:17.722 --> 00:13:22.362 Or owl boys and owl girls and owl non-binary people, of course. 00:13:22.462 --> 00:13:28.322 Because the thing that I'm thinking about it is what's wiser than an owl, right? 00:13:28.782 --> 00:13:34.562 You're already wanting to be wiser and know more things and to remember more things. 00:13:34.762 --> 00:13:37.182 So you're basically already trying to be more like an owl. 00:13:37.502 --> 00:13:39.722 What if we just fuse with owls? 00:13:39.782 --> 00:13:42.902 What if we just become owl people? 00:13:43.402 --> 00:13:44.502 I like this idea. 00:13:44.522 --> 00:13:49.262 So tell me, can you just tell me a little bit about how we're going to fuse with owls? 00:13:49.842 --> 00:13:50.942 Inject the DNA. 00:13:52.442 --> 00:13:56.362 So, and then from there, will it just transform us? 00:13:56.802 --> 00:13:57.922 Well, no. 00:13:58.502 --> 00:14:04.682 I mean, we've already gone through multiple instances of puberty. 00:14:04.782 --> 00:14:08.742 Really, we just need a third puberty, owl puberty. 00:14:09.242 --> 00:14:17.922 Losing it over the assumed we of this is only, I'm only talking to trans people who've gone through a second puberty. 00:14:17.942 --> 00:14:24.062 Well, I was actually just talking to you and me. 00:14:24.362 --> 00:14:28.742 But yes, if you haven't gone through a second puberty, why are you even here? 00:14:29.182 --> 00:14:31.862 Only people who have gone through two puberties are valid. 00:14:33.562 --> 00:14:37.382 Some people are trans and have only gone through one puberty, and they're also valid. 00:14:38.342 --> 00:14:44.702 Hey, it doesn't matter if you're trans and haven't gone through two puberties, and if you're cis and have gone through two puberties. 00:14:45.062 --> 00:14:46.402 You know, I said what I said. 00:14:46.622 --> 00:14:48.582 You know, two puberties are GTFO. 00:14:49.342 --> 00:14:53.162 I would like to distance myself from problematic Clair Ross. 00:14:54.822 --> 00:14:59.882 I am just saying, you know, I didn't know that she held these opinions. 00:14:59.882 --> 00:15:02.302 I didn't know that that Clair was a true scum. 00:15:03.482 --> 00:15:13.182 But no, no, no, I'm not saying anything about like, God, what are other true scum binary people aren't real. 00:15:13.702 --> 00:15:14.822 Right, right, right. 00:15:15.102 --> 00:15:18.122 Also, I guess it would more be transmed than true scum anyway. 00:15:18.902 --> 00:15:23.022 Yeah, it'd be like it'd be like a sub portion of transmed. 00:15:23.042 --> 00:15:33.242 I've created a new sub transmedicalism where, yeah, trans people are valid, including non-binary people, but only if they've gone through two puberties. 00:15:33.662 --> 00:15:36.222 I don't even care how they've gone through two puberties. 00:15:36.242 --> 00:15:38.102 I don't even care if it's the same puberty. 00:15:38.322 --> 00:15:40.302 If you've done it twice, that's fine. 00:15:41.162 --> 00:15:48.602 The only people who are valid are the ones who've gone through two puberties, and we're not here to define what second puberty looks like. 00:15:49.922 --> 00:15:54.062 But a third puberty, an owl puberty here, that's a good idea. 00:15:54.502 --> 00:16:00.962 I think one day you just wake up and there's some feathers, and that's just part of your new state. 00:16:01.202 --> 00:16:03.602 I mean, have you seen baby owls? 00:16:04.282 --> 00:16:05.882 Their feathers are really, really... 00:16:06.442 --> 00:16:08.002 They start out very... 00:16:08.022 --> 00:16:11.842 I don't want to say slimy, because that's not correct. 00:16:12.122 --> 00:16:14.362 But also, what if they started out slimy? 00:16:14.962 --> 00:16:22.242 So it's not actually that you're noticing feathers, it's just that you start noticing slime on your skin, which is very similar to a lot of puberties. 00:16:22.922 --> 00:16:23.362 Yeah. 00:16:25.282 --> 00:16:26.122 Yeah, and then... 00:16:26.142 --> 00:16:32.002 I think they're sliming and sprouting and hardening, all the things that come with most puberties. 00:16:32.542 --> 00:16:35.962 And slowly but surely, you start to become an owl person. 00:16:36.862 --> 00:16:37.302 Yeah. 00:16:37.862 --> 00:16:45.742 And also, your brain just gets huge and brilliant because of your wisdom that you've acquired by being an owl person. 00:16:46.442 --> 00:16:46.922 Yeah. 00:16:46.942 --> 00:16:48.422 You start to remember everything. 00:16:48.522 --> 00:16:49.342 You remember everything. 00:16:49.362 --> 00:16:52.442 Actually, we should have gone with elephants for this because elephants never forget. 00:16:52.462 --> 00:16:53.082 It's too late. 00:16:53.102 --> 00:16:53.962 We can't go back. 00:16:54.182 --> 00:16:56.282 I've already started injecting myself. 00:16:58.602 --> 00:17:00.282 Taking owl injections. 00:17:00.642 --> 00:17:02.342 Oh, excellent. 00:17:02.502 --> 00:17:04.762 I take them owl-y. 00:17:04.782 --> 00:17:10.042 Oh, I'm in such immense pain. 00:17:10.722 --> 00:17:12.022 It's the owl juice. 00:17:13.662 --> 00:17:15.442 I'm owl about this craving. 00:17:15.542 --> 00:17:19.182 Do you want to move on? 00:17:19.362 --> 00:17:20.662 Yeah, I think we can. 00:17:20.782 --> 00:17:21.302 You know what? 00:17:21.402 --> 00:17:31.422 I'm just going to go ahead and take us out of the body horror zone, which I've probably put a content warning in here for body horror, just to warn people. 00:17:31.762 --> 00:17:34.022 And hey, welcome back from that. 00:17:34.262 --> 00:17:36.262 And now for my craving. 00:17:36.962 --> 00:17:37.722 I need to know. 00:17:37.742 --> 00:17:39.742 Now here's what I need to know. 00:17:42.462 --> 00:17:45.002 Which games in the big bundle are good? 00:17:48.762 --> 00:17:56.602 So for those who aren't gamers or don't know games at all, you may not be aware. 00:17:57.022 --> 00:17:58.402 What is a game, Brianna? 00:17:58.422 --> 00:18:01.702 A miserable little pile of secrets. 00:18:02.442 --> 00:18:03.442 But enough talk. 00:18:04.462 --> 00:18:05.222 I lost you. 00:18:05.882 --> 00:18:11.922 itch.io, which is a game platform, both for video games and tabletop games. 00:18:12.242 --> 00:18:12.682 Mainly. 00:18:13.222 --> 00:18:15.562 It did recently this huge bundle. 00:18:15.662 --> 00:18:18.642 It ended up having like 1700 games in it. 00:18:19.982 --> 00:18:22.142 Jesus, that went up so much more. 00:18:22.162 --> 00:18:24.862 It sure did. 00:18:25.102 --> 00:18:31.842 And it has a whole bunch of games in it that are of different genres or different creators. 00:18:31.862 --> 00:18:41.442 And it was a bundle that was selling these games and then donating to various charities to support racial justice and equity. 00:18:42.102 --> 00:18:46.042 And so basically they sold this bundle. 00:18:46.142 --> 00:18:49.322 And I obviously got this bundle because it's incredible. 00:18:49.342 --> 00:18:50.322 It's a lot of games. 00:18:50.602 --> 00:18:56.222 And there's a couple of games that are like, oh yeah, fairly well known, like Night in the Woods, Celeste is in there. 00:18:56.302 --> 00:18:57.762 There's a whole bunch of good games in there. 00:18:58.862 --> 00:19:08.602 I, you know, the bundle is unfortunately over at this point, but you know, if you picked it up, I would definitely recommend Celeste, at the very least. 00:19:10.042 --> 00:19:14.322 But there's a couple of games in there that are like known and famous and stuff. 00:19:14.342 --> 00:19:20.762 And then there's a lot of games in there that I had never heard of before that I don't know what they are, that I don't know how to go through them. 00:19:20.782 --> 00:19:22.842 And there's so, so many games. 00:19:23.322 --> 00:19:26.042 I just, I don't know, I don't know how to go through them. 00:19:26.302 --> 00:19:30.702 I don't know how to explore all of the games and figure out which ones I would enjoy. 00:19:31.142 --> 00:19:42.682 And so, Clair, can you just help me figure out how we're going to sort through this huge bundle of games to find the best games that we will like the most? 00:19:43.542 --> 00:19:45.222 I have some good news and bad news. 00:19:45.902 --> 00:19:53.622 The good news is that I already went through every game and sort of filtered out the ones that I wanted to play. 00:19:54.342 --> 00:19:57.622 The bad news is I did it when it was at about 700 games. 00:19:57.902 --> 00:20:02.262 Yeah, I was like, you went through all 1700? 00:20:02.382 --> 00:20:10.202 I did not realize they were adding to it, and I bought it and then spent, I think, eight hours sorting it. 00:20:10.542 --> 00:20:11.922 So that sucks. 00:20:12.282 --> 00:20:15.302 I've started sorting through the tabletop games specifically. 00:20:15.802 --> 00:20:26.222 I did find a site, I think it's called randomgamebundle.com, that it will give you a random game from the bundle, and you can set parameters. 00:20:26.242 --> 00:20:31.622 I've set for tabletop and physical games only, and there's 400 of those. 00:20:32.722 --> 00:20:37.822 There's literally an entire website dedicated to organizing that one bundle. 00:20:38.542 --> 00:20:39.942 It's not organizing. 00:20:40.122 --> 00:20:42.702 Let me send you the link, and you can see what I mean. 00:20:43.382 --> 00:20:50.942 It's basically giving you a random game from the bundle, and you can apply some filters to be like, I specifically want to look at a physical game. 00:20:51.502 --> 00:20:52.242 It's a lot to look through. 00:20:52.262 --> 00:21:13.442 This is great, because my biggest thing with itch.io is that they don't have a filter option on games you've bought, which was just going to be another one of my solutions of like, we just need to tell itch.io to build a dang filter into their bundle, even just like a search bar to search the games you've bought. 00:21:14.202 --> 00:21:16.342 I should say itch.io is a wonderful website. 00:21:16.362 --> 00:21:31.522 The other really shitty thing about itch.io is if you've bought a game and you go to the game's page, you cannot download the game from the page or access the download page from that page. 00:21:32.122 --> 00:21:34.982 It's a great website in terms of its point. 00:21:35.002 --> 00:21:36.642 They are clearly working on it. 00:21:37.862 --> 00:21:43.962 Yeah, like I've heard talk that they're working on it, they're trying to make it better because they were like super not prepared for this thing. 00:21:44.542 --> 00:21:46.102 That they decided to do. 00:21:46.122 --> 00:21:54.202 Understandably, like who is like, oh yeah, our website, we're going to have a bundle with 1700 games in it, right? 00:21:54.222 --> 00:22:03.542 Like as a developer, I can already see that assumption where it's like, oh, you know, a bundle will have 50 games in it. 00:22:03.582 --> 00:22:06.602 I think that's a pretty reasonable assumption as an upper bound. 00:22:06.782 --> 00:22:07.862 And then this happens. 00:22:08.362 --> 00:22:13.742 So maybe Brianna, we need to just spend three hours on this website. 00:22:15.622 --> 00:22:19.182 You've sent me or I can send you my collection that I put together. 00:22:19.362 --> 00:22:25.702 And that gives us I think I had about 30 games that that would be good to just play. 00:22:26.042 --> 00:22:29.062 And alternatively, you could just play Celeste forever. 00:22:29.082 --> 00:22:30.322 I mean, I could. 00:22:30.402 --> 00:22:35.182 And listen, I would play that game forever, but I've played on Switch where it has controller. 00:22:35.662 --> 00:22:37.602 I mean, I guess I could hook up a controller. 00:22:37.942 --> 00:22:38.642 Here's the thing. 00:22:39.202 --> 00:22:49.822 What if the perfect game for me exists in this bundle and I own it and I miss it because I'm trying to go through all these games and there's so many of them, right? 00:22:49.822 --> 00:22:52.382 What if I missed finding the perfect game for me? 00:22:52.702 --> 00:23:02.162 If I didn't already know the She-Ra tabletop game for the honor is in there, I could have missed that and that would have been a goddamn shame, you know? 00:23:02.482 --> 00:23:07.202 I don't think you would be the person you are today if you missed the For Your Honor game. 00:23:07.862 --> 00:23:09.002 Yeah, absolutely. 00:23:09.022 --> 00:23:09.442 You're right. 00:23:09.462 --> 00:23:31.902 But what I will say is if you want to be 100% certain, there is an assumption in computer science when you're iterating over a list that no matter where you are in that list, you cannot make an assumption that a condition has been met so far unless you know something about every item in that list, which means you have to play every game. 00:23:33.342 --> 00:23:40.882 OK, so how do I get enough time in terms of just my life to play all of these games? 00:23:41.262 --> 00:23:41.842 Let's see. 00:23:41.882 --> 00:23:47.642 Let's assume an upper bound of every single game is a game that you need to play. 00:23:47.662 --> 00:23:54.742 So 1700, we've already got an upper bound, and you spend one hour per game seeing if you like it or not, right? 00:23:54.762 --> 00:23:58.622 Because if it's the perfect game for you, you're going to like it within an hour. 00:23:58.642 --> 00:24:00.302 That has to be the thing. 00:24:00.602 --> 00:24:03.082 In fact, we could even lower that to 30 minutes. 00:24:03.422 --> 00:24:06.022 Generously, hey, we're going to upper bound, let's do an hour. 00:24:06.242 --> 00:24:08.442 So we're at 1700 hours so far. 00:24:08.782 --> 00:24:12.542 If you just dedicate like half a month, I think you're good. 00:24:12.562 --> 00:24:16.222 First of all, just going to quickly calculate how many... 00:24:17.942 --> 00:24:18.922 It's 70 days. 00:24:19.242 --> 00:24:20.782 It's 70 and a bit days. 00:24:21.322 --> 00:24:22.202 So my... 00:24:22.222 --> 00:24:23.302 So two and a half months. 00:24:23.462 --> 00:24:25.522 Yeah, you know, hey, it's not your whole life. 00:24:25.522 --> 00:24:26.882 It's just two and a half months. 00:24:27.182 --> 00:24:30.282 Like, what else are you going to do for two and a half months? 00:24:30.642 --> 00:24:33.582 I guess my other question here, and we'll get to what else I would be doing. 00:24:33.602 --> 00:24:34.582 And this is an upper bound. 00:24:34.902 --> 00:24:36.342 I just want to remind you. 00:24:37.022 --> 00:24:42.402 But I guess my question here, did you calculate that by assuming that I will be playing games all 24 hours a day? 00:24:42.842 --> 00:24:43.722 Yeah, of course. 00:24:43.742 --> 00:24:48.342 Okay, let's do something more realistic and assume that I need to sleep. 00:24:48.722 --> 00:24:54.762 So it's 1700 by 16 because we got to get you that good eight hours of sleep. 00:24:55.002 --> 00:24:57.042 106 days and then some. 00:24:57.142 --> 00:24:58.282 I'm just using integers. 00:24:58.302 --> 00:25:00.122 I don't give a shit about your ground down. 00:25:00.142 --> 00:25:05.102 So 106 days and that's like every hour of the day I'm playing games. 00:25:05.142 --> 00:25:06.082 I'm not eating. 00:25:06.102 --> 00:25:07.702 I'm only sleeping. 00:25:07.722 --> 00:25:08.142 That's it. 00:25:08.142 --> 00:25:08.962 That's all I do. 00:25:10.282 --> 00:25:13.302 So now here's my concern. 00:25:14.662 --> 00:25:16.202 I don't know if you've noticed. 00:25:16.342 --> 00:25:19.862 Now I've noticed a little something. 00:25:20.202 --> 00:25:38.542 That little something is there's a lot happening in the world right now, and I would die if I were to not be able to work on stuff to help with that and do my part to contribute to generally the things that are going on. 00:25:38.762 --> 00:25:44.902 So just kind of going AWOL for three and a half months feels irresponsible. 00:25:46.982 --> 00:25:51.222 And it would drive me mad to not kind of know and contribute to what's going on. 00:25:51.962 --> 00:26:00.182 So what I'm hearing is you care more about everyday life than finding the perfect game, Brianna. 00:26:00.242 --> 00:26:02.762 I don't know if you're really committed to this task. 00:26:03.642 --> 00:26:04.702 Something tells me. 00:26:04.722 --> 00:26:20.282 I mean, the way that I started out this craving was by saying I wanted a way to find a perfect game, not that I wanted to spend all this time, because I didn't need to come to you to be like, oh, yeah, I could just play every game for an hour. 00:26:20.742 --> 00:26:26.162 What I need is the super simple way for something else to go through all the games for me. 00:26:27.682 --> 00:26:30.622 You need to hire a game assistant. 00:26:30.942 --> 00:26:33.422 You need to get a professional gamer to work for you. 00:26:33.442 --> 00:26:35.942 Oh, my God. 00:26:35.962 --> 00:26:36.782 Yes, absolutely. 00:26:37.062 --> 00:26:46.002 So they have to be someone who has experience with both video games and tabletop games and knows in depth my taste and what I will enjoy. 00:26:48.242 --> 00:26:52.702 So with that in mind, you're going to clone yourself. 00:26:53.682 --> 00:26:55.062 I'm going to clone myself. 00:26:55.142 --> 00:26:55.502 Yes. 00:26:55.642 --> 00:26:55.962 Or? 00:26:57.122 --> 00:26:57.402 Or? 00:26:57.422 --> 00:26:59.602 Nope, that's the only solution. 00:27:00.722 --> 00:27:07.222 No, I was going to suggest that you want to be my gamer assistant, Clair. 00:27:07.602 --> 00:27:10.242 See, this is what I meant when there's no other solution. 00:27:10.682 --> 00:27:13.342 I thought about that and I was like, nope. 00:27:16.282 --> 00:27:18.022 The thing is, I already did it. 00:27:18.282 --> 00:27:21.902 I already went through the games and thought about the ones that I wanted to play. 00:27:22.422 --> 00:27:27.262 All right, I need to clone myself to make me become a gamer assistant. 00:27:27.822 --> 00:27:30.742 And see, the best part of this is you can do it repeatedly. 00:27:30.782 --> 00:27:35.622 You can make a board game specific Brianna and a video game specific Brianna. 00:27:35.982 --> 00:27:40.382 And a Brianna that councils you on how you are Brianna, Brianna. 00:27:41.002 --> 00:27:41.542 Damn. 00:27:41.962 --> 00:27:45.702 What if you used your clones as therapists? 00:27:45.722 --> 00:27:52.682 I mean, I was like, I would be a terrible therapist for myself, but I might not be a bad therapist for myself. 00:27:53.362 --> 00:27:53.742 Right. 00:27:54.342 --> 00:27:56.742 I would probably be an all right therapist for myself. 00:27:56.762 --> 00:27:59.082 So maybe a therapy clone is a good idea. 00:27:59.102 --> 00:28:00.982 But really, this is about games. 00:28:01.002 --> 00:28:02.382 Let's not make this about mental health. 00:28:02.782 --> 00:28:03.662 Fuck mental health. 00:28:04.162 --> 00:28:05.722 I don't know what mental health even is. 00:28:06.302 --> 00:28:07.982 What this is about is games. 00:28:08.162 --> 00:28:11.802 I haven't heard of a mental health in my entire life and neither of the gaming industry. 00:28:11.822 --> 00:28:12.662 So let's move on. 00:28:12.682 --> 00:28:18.022 Oh, come for the last of us to like that. 00:28:20.242 --> 00:28:21.782 Uh, yeah. 00:28:23.662 --> 00:28:24.962 How do you clone yourself? 00:28:25.422 --> 00:28:26.382 How does one do that? 00:28:27.322 --> 00:28:38.462 I think you just send your DNA to ancestry.com and then in like 50 years, they're gonna make a clone army that comes after us and probably replaces us all. 00:28:40.542 --> 00:28:44.002 So I've been watching a little bit of Star Wars, the Clone Wars, and I can tell you... 00:28:44.022 --> 00:28:45.362 Oh, so you're the expert. 00:28:45.382 --> 00:28:46.962 Why are you asking me, Brianna?

00:33:20.779 --> 00:33:21.579 Of course. 00:33:21.759 --> 00:33:23.299 It happens about every week. 00:33:23.399 --> 00:33:25.399 It happens at least once every week. 00:33:25.639 --> 00:33:30.399 Every week you log on and you're like, oh, they're good. 00:33:30.459 --> 00:33:30.919 All right. 00:33:30.939 --> 00:33:32.299 Same shit as usual. 00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:35.939 Yeah, about every every week. 00:33:36.499 --> 00:33:45.979 There's usually a guy in the trans community who is basically sad that we don't talk about trans men more in general. 00:33:47.199 --> 00:33:48.979 All the while, we do. 00:33:48.999 --> 00:33:50.799 Throwing trans women under the bus? 00:33:51.859 --> 00:33:56.759 Yeah, you throw trans women under the bus in order to centralize men's feelings. 00:33:56.779 --> 00:34:00.399 That's, you know, it happens in cis communities. 00:34:00.419 --> 00:34:01.859 It happens in trans communities. 00:34:02.499 --> 00:34:04.159 Okay, serious for a second. 00:34:04.339 --> 00:34:33.779 The specific dynamic tends to be that trans men are frustrated with the lack of talk and representation of trans men and trans masculine people, and tend to see that as a sign that trans men are more oppressed than trans women, which ignores the impact of trans misogyny and the fact that trans women's representation is often fetishization or straight-up trans misogyny and all these sorts of different things. 00:34:34.199 --> 00:34:35.639 Hashtag read whipping girl. 00:34:37.979 --> 00:35:03.419 There's also, like, another aspect to this, where a lot of trans men think that, like you joked about, but what is very commonly echoed is that trans men and non-binary, non-trans women are also affected by trans misogyny, which is often, in reality, just a misunderstanding of what trans misogyny is and what transphobia is. 00:35:03.619 --> 00:35:10.079 Because, yes, trans people are all affected by, say it with me, transphobia. 00:35:12.939 --> 00:35:16.579 But not all trans people are affected by trans misogyny. 00:35:16.599 --> 00:35:22.119 Yeah, because trans misogyny does not just mean transphobia and misogyny. 00:35:22.139 --> 00:35:25.119 It is a specific term for the specific... 00:35:25.539 --> 00:35:27.039 Experience of a trans woman. 00:35:27.059 --> 00:35:34.359 Experience and oppression of trans women and trans femme people and just people who are impacted by trans misogyny. 00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:38.559 Yeah, so it's often a misunderstanding and mischaracterization of this. 00:35:38.979 --> 00:35:46.619 And it's the same sort of dynamics you see play out in cis spaces with a lot of men wanting to center their own feelings. 00:35:47.199 --> 00:35:48.979 Yeah, men feeling upset. 00:35:49.399 --> 00:35:54.019 And of course, then it's like, well, I'm upset, so I deserve a space to talk about this. 00:35:54.119 --> 00:35:54.739 And you know what? 00:35:54.939 --> 00:35:56.379 Honestly, yeah, they do. 00:35:56.419 --> 00:35:59.499 But usually it's not the space that they center themselves in. 00:35:59.979 --> 00:36:14.799 Yeah, and it's often very much this thing of like, okay, well, we were talking about the things that we are experiencing, and yes, misogyny and patriarchy and all these things, it negatively impacts us all, but it negatively impacts us in particular ways and in different ways. 00:36:15.139 --> 00:36:24.499 And like, just because more people know that we exist does not actually mean we are privileged in that way. 00:36:24.819 --> 00:36:28.699 There's lots of, yeah, this is a discourse that pops up so often. 00:36:28.719 --> 00:36:30.199 It's so frustrating. 00:36:30.559 --> 00:36:32.039 So let's just make jokes about it. 00:36:34.139 --> 00:36:34.459 Yeah. 00:36:34.519 --> 00:36:34.859 Yeah. 00:36:34.899 --> 00:36:36.099 So how are we fixing this? 00:36:36.639 --> 00:36:39.359 So we like feelings basin. 00:36:39.619 --> 00:36:44.419 It's like, what if a sink, but out of the tap comes feelings? 00:36:45.219 --> 00:36:53.059 And so whenever you're feeling feelings, if you just need to let your feelings out, we'll just have a feelings basin for you. 00:36:53.259 --> 00:36:57.179 Pour your feelings down and get rid of all those feelings. 00:36:57.719 --> 00:36:58.099 True. 00:36:58.719 --> 00:37:00.519 It's like a little kaleidoscope soup. 00:37:02.399 --> 00:37:04.419 Sometimes it's good to process those feelings though. 00:37:04.439 --> 00:37:07.139 Nope, no processing feelings here, only jokes. 00:37:07.159 --> 00:37:11.259 No, I've decided, I know how we're going to make the feelings process. 00:37:11.559 --> 00:37:14.819 We're going to get your Brianna clones to give everybody therapy. 00:37:14.839 --> 00:37:17.899 I would not put them through that. 00:37:17.999 --> 00:37:20.379 I would never do such a thing to them. 00:37:20.459 --> 00:37:31.079 But what I would do is I would create man feelings flower, because really processing feelings is the same as processing wheat into bread. 00:37:31.819 --> 00:37:41.439 So we're going to create man feelings bread, and men can learn how to bake bread from their feelings flower. 00:37:41.919 --> 00:37:44.599 You know, I think it's an acquired taste. 00:37:44.999 --> 00:37:53.219 We are on a podcast called Salt Cravings, and I think I've talked myself into this hole where now we need to make man feelings bread. 00:37:53.319 --> 00:38:02.339 Well, I think specifically men should make man feelings bread, and then they can eat the bread and then they'll be like, wow, this feels like I've processed this and come through this. 00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:03.759 I'm for equality. 00:38:03.779 --> 00:38:06.139 I think everybody should make man feelings bread. 00:38:06.799 --> 00:38:08.519 That's what equality is. 00:38:08.539 --> 00:38:10.619 I think everyone should make feelings bread. 00:38:12.199 --> 00:38:13.279 Welcome to 2022. 00:38:13.299 --> 00:38:15.399 Gender feelings bread. 00:38:15.499 --> 00:38:24.279 The new hot take is that man feelings bread is so 2020 and that the new bread is is gender neutral feelings bread. 00:38:24.499 --> 00:38:27.239 Gender neutral feelings bread or just gender feelings bread. 00:38:27.259 --> 00:38:31.299 You know, we all get gender feelings and I think we could make that into bread. 00:38:31.559 --> 00:38:33.859 I don't think everyone gets gender feelings, Brianna. 00:38:34.679 --> 00:38:36.119 I forgot about cis people. 00:38:43.786 --> 00:38:44.746 Uh, uh-huh. 00:38:44.766 --> 00:38:45.966 What a wonderful world. 00:38:46.146 --> 00:38:56.906 Oh, Clair, I just lived in the most wonderful world where everyone is, like, trans, and the only things we have to deal with are, like, intra-community shit, and, like, there are no cis people. 00:38:57.726 --> 00:39:00.826 Oh, Clair, you can't, I need, I want it back. 00:39:00.846 --> 00:39:02.206 I want this world back. 00:39:03.146 --> 00:39:07.646 I'm sorry, Brianna, I burst you out of that bubble, and all you've got left is bread. 00:39:08.466 --> 00:39:10.266 All things turn to bread in the end. 00:39:10.406 --> 00:39:13.886 You either die a person or live long enough to see yourself become bread. 00:39:14.366 --> 00:39:17.706 God, this is that one meme that's like, I know, I don't want to become bread. 00:39:17.726 --> 00:39:18.846 I don't want to become bread. 00:39:18.866 --> 00:39:20.226 I'm actually fine with being bread. 00:39:21.006 --> 00:39:22.786 I don't know that meme, but I love it. 00:39:23.386 --> 00:39:25.446 All right, I'm just going to post this, and you can watch this. 00:39:25.466 --> 00:39:25.646 Oh, no. 00:39:25.666 --> 00:39:32.686 Yeah, that's an accurate representation. 00:39:33.406 --> 00:39:42.026 That is the experience of feelings bread is, okay, you know, first, oftentimes you don't want to process your feelings, right? 00:39:42.046 --> 00:39:44.906 You just want to feel the things and be mad at other people, right? 00:39:44.926 --> 00:39:49.226 But you don't want to actually go through the process of processing them. 00:39:49.466 --> 00:39:53.786 And so obviously, you're going to struggle against the desire for your feelings to become bread. 00:39:55.966 --> 00:40:03.426 But eventually, you will come to understand that being bread is the only way to destroy patriarchy. 00:40:03.626 --> 00:40:05.846 Bread isn't even my final form. 00:40:06.586 --> 00:40:07.746 What's your next craving? 00:40:08.246 --> 00:40:08.506 Bam. 00:40:09.966 --> 00:40:13.466 It's been, it's bam, about... 00:40:13.486 --> 00:40:14.686 Thank you. 00:40:16.046 --> 00:40:23.466 It's been about a year since I finally officially graduated from university. 00:40:24.326 --> 00:40:26.826 That means it's been about a year for me too. 00:40:27.626 --> 00:40:28.186 Yeah. 00:40:28.446 --> 00:40:38.106 And I feel like I'm finally able to read books again, and write things again, and engage with words again. 00:40:38.126 --> 00:40:46.226 Because for pretty much a full year, I just couldn't, I just really truly could not do anything that resembled school stuff. 00:40:46.306 --> 00:40:55.266 The other day, I read Our Prison's Obsolete by Angela Davis, which I think is the first piece of theory that I finished since I graduated. 00:40:55.286 --> 00:40:57.706 Today, I actually wrote things. 00:40:58.066 --> 00:40:59.526 I'm finally getting back to it. 00:41:00.206 --> 00:41:24.166 And what I guess I'm craving is a better school system that doesn't make you burn out so heavily, that like you can't bear to think about or look at the thing that you were doing for four or five years or however many years because you burned out so hard because the school system and the post-secondary system is such a disaster. 00:41:24.186 --> 00:41:25.726 Can you help me fix school? 00:41:26.946 --> 00:41:29.426 So first, we're going to turn all the schools into prisons. 00:41:29.506 --> 00:41:33.546 All right, we're already done step one, and then we're going to abolish all prisons. 00:41:35.586 --> 00:41:41.246 All right, I'm glad I let you continue because that is the best place that I say we could have gone. 00:41:41.286 --> 00:41:44.766 And really, if you think about Foucault, aren't schools already prisons? 00:41:44.946 --> 00:41:50.406 Yeah, step one is basically done because schools are already prisons and the school to prison pipeline exists. 00:41:50.626 --> 00:42:07.526 This is something, a great thing to know about my school that I went to UBC is that the head chancellor was an ex-CEO of the HSBC Bank, which really, I think, tells you a lot about what you need to know about what universities actually are. 00:42:07.546 --> 00:42:11.486 And colleges, I guess, because this is an inclusive show. 00:42:13.266 --> 00:42:14.186 Ecology. 00:42:15.926 --> 00:42:16.826 That's a different thing. 00:42:17.166 --> 00:42:18.446 Nope, it's the same now. 00:42:18.626 --> 00:42:21.646 So, okay, so what you're saying is we're abolishing all schools. 00:42:21.646 --> 00:42:35.606 So when we talk about prison abolition, right, what we're actually, what we're talking about is eating a society and putting things into different services so that we don't need police and we don't need prisons anymore, right? 00:42:35.666 --> 00:42:38.446 That we can move past the need for those things. 00:42:38.466 --> 00:42:43.686 And in fact, that the need has never actually been there and that we can create a better world. 00:42:43.906 --> 00:42:48.686 So I guess my question is, is there some sort of replacement for schools? 00:42:48.706 --> 00:42:57.426 What do we put our energy and our time and our money into in order to help people learn, you know? 00:42:57.666 --> 00:42:59.226 Because learning is valuable. 00:42:59.706 --> 00:43:01.746 I'd like to propose a wild thought. 00:43:01.926 --> 00:43:04.546 Have you ever heard of a library? 00:43:05.026 --> 00:43:06.926 So I've heard about libraries. 00:43:06.946 --> 00:43:08.386 In fact, I've even been to some. 00:43:09.166 --> 00:43:11.506 Now what if, now stay with me for a second. 00:43:12.686 --> 00:43:15.886 What if we put the library in the internet? 00:43:16.746 --> 00:43:20.046 And what if we called that library an archive? 00:43:20.706 --> 00:43:23.366 We could call it the Internet Archives. 00:43:24.026 --> 00:43:32.326 And then the system in which we live in could get angry at it until eventually people realize that it's actually a good idea. 00:43:33.286 --> 00:43:34.346 Oh no. 00:43:34.986 --> 00:43:36.506 You've heard about this, right? 00:43:36.526 --> 00:43:37.726 You know of the Internet Archives. 00:43:37.746 --> 00:43:38.606 Yeah, I know about this. 00:43:38.926 --> 00:43:39.526 I do. 00:43:39.706 --> 00:43:40.966 It makes me sad. 00:43:41.546 --> 00:43:47.646 Look, libraries are a socialist scam that just want to get your data, and I don't know what else they're trying to say. 00:43:47.826 --> 00:43:50.086 They all hate libraries too, I'm pretty sure. 00:43:50.106 --> 00:43:51.146 Clair, how does this help? 00:43:51.286 --> 00:43:52.706 How does this help us learn? 00:43:53.026 --> 00:43:56.506 We're going to make, we're going to fund the Internet Archive, Brianna. 00:43:56.506 --> 00:43:58.946 That's how we're spreading the university money. 00:43:58.966 --> 00:44:10.326 We're going to defund the universities, and we're going to make the Internet Archive freely available and very useful actually for accessing and using information. 00:44:11.006 --> 00:44:14.226 My question then becomes, how do you sort through the information? 00:44:14.226 --> 00:44:16.906 How do you recommend different pieces of work? 00:44:17.586 --> 00:44:20.266 Those are good questions, and that's what needs to be answered. 00:44:20.526 --> 00:44:23.926 Okay, so you're saying we need to do some studies. 00:44:24.206 --> 00:44:26.806 Sounds pretty university to me. 00:44:27.286 --> 00:44:31.226 Yeah, see, the only way to defeat the system is from the inside. 00:44:31.646 --> 00:44:35.366 With incremental reformist change from the inside. 00:44:36.146 --> 00:44:39.846 Working slowly, not too rashly, you know. 00:44:39.866 --> 00:44:42.906 Yeah, that's the only way to create change. 00:44:44.346 --> 00:44:48.426 I mean, show me one instance in history where change has happened overnight. 00:44:48.826 --> 00:44:49.846 Do it, I dare you. 00:44:51.846 --> 00:44:53.526 Also, don't show me anything. 00:44:56.326 --> 00:45:04.226 Yeah, show me one instance in history in which trying to destroy the system and bring about a new system has ever actually happened. 00:45:04.506 --> 00:45:05.506 That's what I thought. 00:45:06.066 --> 00:45:13.706 See, Brianna, if you just do that, then you're just going to get the same system because you're just overthrowing the system with the same system. 00:45:14.066 --> 00:45:18.866 So A plus A equals A, Q, E, D, I'm much smarter than you. 00:45:18.886 --> 00:45:23.006 Oh, I learned that in logic class. 00:45:23.306 --> 00:45:26.326 Yes, of course. 00:45:26.406 --> 00:45:34.626 I do think that there are certain values to listening to experts and to being able to know who is an expert. 00:45:34.646 --> 00:45:41.186 I think we need to define expertise differently, and I think we need to have more understandings of expertise. 00:45:41.406 --> 00:45:53.846 But I do think there is value in learning from experts and learning from expert pieces of work and from expert individuals. 00:45:54.466 --> 00:45:57.786 I would love for there to be a version of that that exists outside of the university. 00:45:57.806 --> 00:45:59.506 I do have a very important question. 00:46:00.106 --> 00:46:03.346 Where are we going to find these people who used to be perts? 00:46:03.566 --> 00:46:05.606 Where are we going to find these experts? 00:46:08.146 --> 00:46:14.366 I find they usually hang around the pert place. 00:46:14.626 --> 00:46:18.686 They hang around the pert place, still they're not allowed in because they're experts. 00:46:19.226 --> 00:46:21.806 But they're usually still hanging out outside. 00:46:22.386 --> 00:46:23.566 Right, they're pertinent about it. 00:46:23.586 --> 00:46:24.506 That's what that word means. 00:46:28.866 --> 00:46:31.746 They're pert-sistant. 00:46:32.006 --> 00:46:35.006 They usually hang out outside, and they're like, they won't let me in. 00:46:35.026 --> 00:46:37.226 They say I'm an expert, but no, I'm still pert. 00:46:37.866 --> 00:46:44.806 And then we can go to them and we can say, no, it's okay, you're an expert and we value, and we're going to create a space for experts. 00:46:45.866 --> 00:46:49.026 What do you have to do to lose your pert status? 00:46:50.086 --> 00:46:51.546 Like, that's what it's about, right? 00:46:51.566 --> 00:46:53.646 It's all everyone wants to lose their pert card. 00:46:54.006 --> 00:46:54.786 Holy shit. 00:46:55.326 --> 00:46:58.406 Wait, is your pert card the same as yours in your virginity?

00:47:37.286 --> 00:47:38.666 My craving is specifically... 00:47:38.686 --> 00:47:39.226 Oh, right. 00:47:39.246 --> 00:47:41.626 I forgot we were on your craving. 00:47:41.906 --> 00:47:44.046 Hey, Brianna, what if I had a memory? 00:47:44.066 --> 00:47:49.686 Damn, we should do that as a craving sometime. 00:47:49.786 --> 00:47:57.646 Specifically, I am looking to make the school system one that doesn't cause us to like burn out and hate the subjects we studied in school. 00:47:59.586 --> 00:48:01.826 See, I didn't get a chance because... 00:48:01.846 --> 00:48:19.706 Well, I guess I did because what I studied was like a bunch of theory, and then I immediately went into industry, which I could pick out maybe three or four courses in my entire degree that I could do those courses and be pretty much just as good at my job. 00:48:20.146 --> 00:48:25.106 And everything else is really good for if I wanted to go into theory or research. 00:48:25.646 --> 00:48:26.186 Who knows? 00:48:26.326 --> 00:48:29.506 I kind of do, but also I hate academia. 00:48:30.066 --> 00:48:34.666 Maybe we need shorter and more hyper specific degrees. 00:48:35.186 --> 00:48:37.686 You have to decide when you choose your degree. 00:48:38.026 --> 00:48:40.226 No, but they're really specific. 00:48:41.206 --> 00:48:48.406 You have to choose the exact job, the exact position, the exact thing you're going to be doing. 00:48:48.886 --> 00:48:51.386 Yeah, and you have to do a different one, right? 00:48:51.406 --> 00:48:58.426 You're going to have to go through all the courses again, because all the courses are specifically for the specific thing that you're going to do. 00:48:59.006 --> 00:49:05.206 So for your industry, you have to do the specific three or four courses. 00:49:05.606 --> 00:49:09.246 It's one semester, and you're done and you're out there. 00:49:09.826 --> 00:49:13.026 And that's the only job you know how to do, and you don't know anything else. 00:49:13.666 --> 00:49:14.046 Great. 00:49:14.066 --> 00:49:15.306 Let's release high school with that. 00:49:15.726 --> 00:49:21.526 Like, why do you need a general knowledge when you can have this hyper-specific, work-based knowledge? 00:49:23.106 --> 00:49:23.846 Yes, it is all about... 00:49:23.866 --> 00:49:28.686 Where you can prepare for the job that you'll have which defines you as a person and should define you as a person. 00:49:29.306 --> 00:49:39.006 Right, it's all about making sure that we can get people into the workforce as fast as possible, and to not really make them individual thinkers. 00:49:39.326 --> 00:49:42.166 That would be awful to supply them with a... 00:49:42.706 --> 00:49:45.366 So, I mean, why not even start earlier, right? 00:49:45.386 --> 00:49:55.206 Like, we can start modifying children, we can modify their DNA to make them really good at specific jobs, and then we could just tell them what to do. 00:49:55.226 --> 00:49:56.086 Think about that. 00:49:56.526 --> 00:49:58.466 Yeah, like, no thought on their part. 00:49:58.486 --> 00:49:59.506 This is a really good idea. 00:49:59.526 --> 00:50:00.646 It's a really great idea. 00:50:01.006 --> 00:50:02.526 We've given them a service. 00:50:02.906 --> 00:50:09.366 And you have exactly the amount of workers you need for whatever job you've decided that the government should be doing. 00:50:09.406 --> 00:50:16.726 And if you think about it, the thing that I will say here, the caveat, is you can't have a government that changes up all the time because they'll say they've done it already. 00:50:16.746 --> 00:50:17.886 No, we have already kids here. 00:50:18.366 --> 00:50:24.446 You have to have one government, no other alternatives, always the same government, just forever. 00:50:24.686 --> 00:50:29.886 So this seems like a really good political and economic and educational system. 00:50:30.406 --> 00:50:30.846 I agree. 00:50:31.886 --> 00:50:34.726 So, yeah, let's just get to work on that. 00:50:35.186 --> 00:50:37.566 And then in the meantime, we'll abolish prisons. 00:50:38.086 --> 00:50:38.986 There's no prisons. 00:50:39.006 --> 00:50:40.346 It's the perfect system. 00:50:40.586 --> 00:50:42.046 Everything else is great. 00:50:42.066 --> 00:50:45.566 We've given people jobs from birth and prisons are no longer a thing. 00:50:45.706 --> 00:50:47.706 This is what the leftists want. 00:50:49.846 --> 00:50:51.666 This is what all leftists believe. 00:50:51.886 --> 00:50:57.046 All leftists hold the same beliefs, and there's no infighting between what a better future looks like. 00:50:57.346 --> 00:50:59.186 Ask a group of leftists what they believe. 00:50:59.206 --> 00:51:04.386 They will say the exact same words to you in sync, like, just right back to you. 00:51:04.406 --> 00:51:10.586 Yeah, because we've all injected the beliefs into our DNA from birth, and the government told us what to believe. 00:51:10.906 --> 00:51:17.206 Because the government is actually a leftist controlled mind hive, out to chase down all the lovely... 00:51:17.226 --> 00:51:20.966 Well, that is all the time we have today, everyone. 00:51:20.966 --> 00:51:23.946 We have had an incredible show tonight. 00:51:24.366 --> 00:51:27.326 Thank you so much, Clair, for coming on. 00:51:27.546 --> 00:51:28.726 It's been great to have you. 00:51:28.746 --> 00:51:29.486 Thanks. 00:51:29.726 --> 00:51:34.686 It was so much fun to talk about our Cravings on this show today. 00:51:34.926 --> 00:51:36.666 Did we talk about Cravings?
