Based Camp - White Man Lives With Black Bear： Who Will Women Choose？

00:00:00.000 Hello, Simone. 0.69

00:00:02.220 Remember when that thing went around that was like, would you rather run

00:00:06.720 into a random man in the woods or a bear?

00:00:10.180 Yeah.

00:00:11.120 Okay.

00:00:11.760 So what have I told you?

00:00:13.900 And this is, I kid you not a real news story that right now in California, there

00:00:24.380 is a white man being forced to live with a black bear by the California government.

00:00:36.220 I saw, no, I saw a headline, but I didn't click through to it.

00:00:39.480 I think on Drudge, there was something like man, man still living with bear or something

00:00:45.220 like, like man can't get rid of bear.

00:00:47.240 It's been over a month since that 550 pound black bear moved into his home.

00:00:53.220 He can hear it from inside of his home.

00:00:55.600 Why, why does it matter that he's a white man?

00:00:59.740 I don't know, but it seemed to matter that it was a black bear.

00:01:02.960 So I'm just recording the story as I read.

00:01:06.000 No, because if it were a grizzly bear, it would be a dead person, a dead body.

00:01:10.020 And it'll be a dead body soon with a black bear.

00:01:13.420 It's a large black bear.

00:01:15.300 Black bears will be attacked when they feel, when they're approached aggressively or they

00:01:19.980 perceive to be aggressively or.

00:01:22.040 Simone, it's living in his house.

00:01:25.620 It's living in his house.

00:01:27.420 I mean, a lot of irresponsible people adopt tiger cubs and lion cubs.

00:01:33.240 This is a wild adult bear.

00:01:36.260 Yeah.

00:01:37.380 Well, define wild.

00:01:39.340 You know, when, when, when you discover that it's been living around cities and people for

00:01:44.940 so long that it has developed habits that have adapted to them.

00:01:48.020 In fact, people have found that urban raccoons have developed different morphological traits

00:01:53.580 from, yeah, they've, they, they actually have more dog-like traits.

00:01:58.800 Now they look more approachable and friendly.

00:02:01.800 They have floppier ears and I think shorter snouts.

00:02:04.400 They just look cuter.

00:02:05.600 So yeah.

00:02:06.740 Oh, I'd, I'd be very interested to see, you know, when we go to space, if we bring raccoons

00:02:10.560 with us or something, I mean, I think, I think that that's already been foretold by the Marvel

00:02:15.760 Cinematic Universe. 1.00

00:02:17.140 You stupid raccoon. 1.00

00:02:18.200 Don't call me a raccoon. 1.00

00:02:20.020 I'm sorry.

00:02:21.180 I took it too far. 0.92

00:02:22.080 I meant trash panda. 0.93

00:02:26.820 Is that better? 0.98

00:02:28.660 It's worse.

00:02:29.880 It's so much worse.

00:02:31.040 This is the thing.

00:02:32.020 It's true.

00:02:32.900 But like, if you, if you are, as soon as we can start genetically editing animals, it's

00:02:36.900 going to dramatically open up the types of animals that make good pets.

00:02:42.140 Yeah.

00:02:42.320 And a few that like are lower tier right now are going to move to high tier with genetic

00:02:48.520 editing.

00:02:49.120 So people are talking about designer babies.

00:02:50.960 The thing is people are already cloning their pet dogs.

00:02:53.780 It's first going to be designer pets and gene edited pets.

00:02:56.940 If people are already cloning dogs, they're going to genetically modify pets super soon.

00:03:02.220 And I already, like, I can tell our next generation is super open to that.

00:03:06.540 Octavian was working next to me this, this afternoon and he's sitting there and trying

00:03:10.820 to think about what he can invent.

00:03:12.600 And he's like, well, they already invented helicopters and they already invented humans.

00:03:17.160 And I'm like, well, you can invent a better human.

00:03:19.320 And then he starts asking about alligators and crocodiles and warm versus cold-blooded.

00:03:23.900 Like, I see the gears turning.

00:03:26.740 All right.

00:03:27.080 This is happening.

00:03:27.980 We're going to have our talking dog soon.

00:03:30.220 Professor Two or the Commodore or whatever we're going to name our next dog is going to

00:03:33.740 be a talking dog.

00:03:34.700 The Soviets put me on a rocket knowing full well I'm never to return and I'll die. 0.77

00:03:40.700 But one thing even mutak Soviets never do is call me bad dog.

00:03:45.780 God, you just let it go.

00:03:48.160 A bad dog.

00:03:49.880 It never stops hurting.

00:03:52.180 But if you put Pox P2 in dogs, it looks like you might be able to get a dog with fairly

00:04:02.700 minor genetic edits that could understand human speech significantly better.

00:04:07.660 But what I'm saying here is I don't even know if dogs are going to be the ultimate species

00:04:11.920 to edit.

00:04:12.700 I mean, I do think we'll do a lot of edits to dogs, but I think that there's other species.

00:04:16.780 Examples here would be ferrets.

00:04:19.040 Ferrets would be a much more amazing pet if they didn't smell so bad.

00:04:22.760 Oh, I was just going to say, it was like, but the smell, Malcolm.

00:04:26.000 With genetic edits, you can remove the smell problem from ferrets.

00:04:29.480 What about the greasiness?

00:04:30.500 I don't know.

00:04:30.960 I feel like the greasiness and smelliness is a big part of their...

00:04:35.280 Physiology?

00:04:36.480 Yeah.

00:04:37.300 Well, I don't know.

00:04:38.320 Again, with raccoons, if you can make raccoons more domesticated, like a half dog, half raccoon,

00:04:44.440 I think would be...

00:04:45.000 We already have those, like I said.

00:04:47.240 We're getting closer.

00:04:48.420 They're doing it on their own.

00:04:49.360 But I'm thinking, you know, what do you have on...

00:04:51.100 Yeah, in other words, we can do this in one year rather than through tons of generations

00:04:57.740 of raccoons living and dying.

00:04:59.260 I mean, that's your whole point.

00:05:00.720 Yeah.

00:05:00.940 Yeah.

00:05:01.420 Yeah.

00:05:01.780 And they've tried to do this with other animals.

00:05:03.760 It is hard to domesticate some species.

00:05:05.620 There was an experiment to domesticate foxes in Russia.

00:05:10.080 And they went back to a wild form fairly quickly.

00:05:12.660 And you can still buy them, by the way, if you want to buy these semi-domesticated foxes

00:05:15.820 from Russia during the communist period.

00:05:18.100 And they developed a lot of traits of dogs, like floppy ears and stuff like that, similar

00:05:21.940 to the raccoons.

00:05:23.240 Do they behave mostly like dogs as pets?

00:05:26.980 Should we get a fox next?

00:05:29.040 We just love foxes.

00:05:30.280 They're smellier is the biggest downside.

00:05:32.640 And I actually wonder if that's one of the core things was dogs and cats that we bred

00:05:36.240 out of them was smelliness.

00:05:37.100 That's really interesting.

00:05:39.440 I mean, if you've been around a dog that farts, and we all have, I think we can all beg to

00:05:43.940 differ.

00:05:44.280 The dogs are not stinky.

00:05:46.060 But most non-dog and cat pets that have not been around humans for a long time are quite

00:05:51.060 smelly animals.

00:05:52.360 Yeah.

00:05:52.720 And cats uniquely.

00:05:54.440 I mean, I'm sure that some people have cats with bowel problems or something.

00:05:58.680 But in my entire experience having a childhood cat, I did not recall that cat farting once

00:06:03.440 or making any bad smells, once, aside from, like, vomiting sometimes.

00:06:07.460 So anyway, well, and of course, we've got to get to gene-edited bears, right?

00:06:10.740 Yeah.

00:06:10.960 So anyway, back to the bear.

00:06:16.580 What is a multi-bear?

00:06:24.540 Oh, that's a multi-bear.

00:06:28.140 Bear heads.

00:06:29.220 Oh, yeah.

00:06:29.800 Well, I'm sorry.

00:06:30.680 Wait, wait, there's a man living with a bear, but the state isn't letting him get rid of

00:06:36.360 it.

00:06:36.920 Does California have stand-your-ground laws?

00:06:39.140 Can he shoot the bear in his own house?

00:06:41.060 So I do not think the stand-your-ground laws apply to bears, only humans.

00:06:48.080 And I do not think California has them in the first place.

00:06:50.320 Let's see.

00:06:50.720 California stand-your-ground laws.

00:06:52.300 Does California have stand-your-ground laws?

00:06:55.780 I'm asking Grock.

00:06:59.540 No, it doesn't.

00:07:01.380 I am in California, and there is a bear in my house.

00:07:04.540 Can I shoot it?

00:07:05.480 Will I be in legal trouble for shooting this bear? 0.96

00:07:11.780 The answer is, from at least this case, yes.

00:07:16.040 You are not allowed to remove a bear from your house.

00:07:18.480 So I want to talk about why you're not allowed to remove a bear from your house.

00:07:22.540 Okay.

00:07:22.980 It's actually going to be relevant to a lot of humanity growing forwards as bureaucratic

00:07:28.660 institutions begin to break apart.

00:07:30.120 As the bears take over.

00:07:32.840 As the bears take over.

00:07:34.440 Didn't you guys know the bear uprising?

00:07:36.740 This is step one.

00:07:38.860 But this is...

00:07:41.000 I mean, the reason I want to cover this survey is because it's so emblematic of many things.

00:07:45.840 He needs a hunting permit.

00:07:48.020 Is it not hunting season?

00:07:49.040 It's not hunting season.

00:07:50.780 It's winter.

00:07:51.540 See, that's the...

00:07:52.660 This is bureaucracy at its best.

00:07:54.820 Well, sir... 0.99

00:07:55.660 Sir, you can shoot it in a summer.

00:07:58.320 You know, and it's not hunting season right now.

00:08:01.860 I would arrange an unfortunate accident for the bear.

00:08:05.400 Inside your home.

00:08:06.000 The castle doctrine.

00:08:08.400 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:08:09.100 Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:08:10.420 Yeah, yeah.

00:08:10.940 If you reasonably believe it's necessary to protect yourself or others from imminent death

00:08:14.600 or great bodily injury, this falls under California's self-defense laws.

00:08:18.400 Penal code 197, 198.5, castle doctrine for inside the home.

00:08:23.540 Inside your home.

00:08:24.100 The castle doctrine dictates a presumption that if you have a reasonable fear of imminent

00:08:28.760 harm, if the bear is acting aggressively like charging or attacking, you can just say.

00:08:33.440 It has to...

00:08:34.560 Well, I don't know.

00:08:36.200 This has become a wide enough case that I think they do like a forensic analysis.

00:08:40.260 And I don't think...

00:08:40.740 Real cases support this.

00:08:41.680 California Department of Fish and Wildlife and law enforcement have ruled shootings as

00:08:45.120 justified self-defense when a bear entered a home and showed aggression, even though

00:08:49.620 no permit existed.

00:08:52.380 Simone, but it was charging.

00:08:55.300 Or...

00:08:55.460 Well, this is true.

00:08:56.120 Yeah, you cannot...

00:08:56.840 You cannot shoot solely to protect property, e.g. if the bear is just rummaging without

00:09:01.800 threatening people.

00:09:03.440 Deadly forces.

00:09:04.580 Okay, so what's happening is there's a squatter situation.

00:09:08.720 The bear is not charging him.

00:09:10.440 It's just like ransacking his home.

00:09:12.440 A lot of people have been joking on these...

00:09:14.560 It's like a squatter situation.

00:09:17.320 It is not like...

00:09:18.240 That seems to be how this is...

00:09:20.200 If he's not allowed to take...

00:09:21.140 The actual...

00:09:21.820 So see, the actual thing that's going wrong and why he can't get rid of it.

00:09:26.080 And it's been there since Thanksgiving, by the way.

00:09:27.700 And it's a 500...

00:09:28.440 Wait!

00:09:29.340 That's a long time!

00:09:30.880 It's a 500 to 550 pound bear.

00:09:34.100 It has done significant damage to his property already.

00:09:36.600 It tore out the water system, so he had to get that shut off.

00:09:39.800 So he has no running water to his house anymore.

00:09:42.700 A flooded basement with a bear in it.

00:09:45.700 He can't do anything about this, right?

00:09:48.720 And the reason he can't do anything about it...

00:09:50.520 And Simone, it's 500 to 550 pounds.

00:09:52.420 It's a large bear.

00:09:53.400 Yeah, so a big gun and more bullets.

00:09:57.280 I do not trust the gun to take it down while it's charging, Simone.

00:10:02.140 You want to harass this thing to get it to charge? 0.98

00:10:05.200 I don't trust that.

00:10:06.260 This is why I handle the animal problems in our house, and you don't.

00:10:10.920 But...

00:10:11.120 So...

00:10:11.940 But I...

00:10:12.380 Okay, before I go further with the story, the reason why I want to talk about this

00:10:15.660 is just sort of the microcosm of leftist insanity.

00:10:18.500 Like, that a bear living in your house, they do not see as a threat.

00:10:22.800 They do not care about the bureaucratic downside to this, which is if this bear goes out and

00:10:26.520 like mauls someone on the street, this guy is going to be responsible for it because

00:10:30.420 it was on his property, and yet he can't get it off his property.

00:10:34.840 It fits into the bear or man meme, because if a man started living in a woman's house,

00:10:40.180 I am sure he would be evicted, right?

00:10:42.380 Like, it plays into...

00:10:44.440 Oh yeah, that's true.

00:10:44.980 The mere presence of the man would be construed as a home invasion and threat, yeah.

00:10:51.320 But a bear is not a threat.

00:10:53.260 A bear is a threat.

00:10:55.500 A bear is just a bear.

00:10:56.300 Like the kind with bear teeth and bear claws.

00:10:59.920 It's just Winnie the Pooh.

00:11:01.920 You can see it like barely fitting coming in and out.

00:11:05.140 But anyway, so 500 to 550 pounds.

00:11:08.220 He calls the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to remove this bear.

00:11:13.100 They come and they set up a meat trap and like a big like live catch bear trap.

00:11:19.000 And they catch a bear.

00:11:21.640 So there's like a population of bears in this community.

00:11:24.300 They just catch the wrong bear?

00:11:26.980 Yeah, they catch a smaller bear.

00:11:28.680 They take the smaller bear away and relocate it.

00:11:31.360 And I love the guy was even like, and I felt bad about that other bear.

00:11:34.620 You know, like...

00:11:35.320 That bear didn't do anything.

00:11:36.740 Yeah, seriously.

00:11:37.660 Well, how big of a community of bears do you have in this community?

00:11:41.640 Sweet man.

00:11:42.880 So anyway, they catch the wrong bear.

00:11:46.220 But they're just like, okay, we're done.

00:11:50.660 And he's like, no, there's still a bear in my basement.

00:11:54.600 And they're just like, no, we caught the bear.

00:11:58.480 I can't even.

00:11:59.640 That's insane.

00:12:00.880 It's exactly like that scene from 30 Rock when he's like, no, I have the government report.

00:12:05.340 There's no leak in the ceiling.

00:12:06.880 Yes.

00:12:07.660 He's like, but I can see the leak.

00:12:09.520 The ceiling appears to be leaking.

00:12:11.020 No, it's not.

00:12:12.180 We've looked into it and it's not.

00:12:14.380 If you have any questions, I'll write down my extension for you.

00:12:18.760 Would you come to my basement and look at the bear with me?

00:12:22.440 And then they're like, oh, yes, there is a bear.

00:12:24.500 So then they tried to get it out by putting in some sort of like a noise making device.

00:12:30.020 Oh.

00:12:30.460 Which appeared to be working.

00:12:32.080 But then they shut it off arbitrarily.

00:12:34.180 And they haven't explained why.

00:12:36.700 And they haven't come back to try anything else after that.

00:12:39.960 They have made it very clear to him that they are aware that there is a bear in his basement.

00:12:45.960 Right again, using air horns to flush the bear out. 0.98

00:12:53.120 Johnson says it looked like it was finally working until he says they suddenly got a call ordering them to stand down.

00:13:01.180 Very defeated.

00:13:02.680 Oh, yeah.

00:13:03.540 I mean, I just dropped because like, well, now what?

00:13:06.940 It's all up to me.

00:13:08.860 And what?

00:13:10.120 I'm supposed to watch my phone when he comes out in the middle of the night or like sleep in the kitchen and listen for him every night.

00:13:16.800 I even ask like, OK, so as long as you guys are gone, can I still use the bait to get him?

00:13:21.160 No.

00:13:21.780 So he said, can I get it?

00:13:23.960 So he tried to do things.

00:13:25.220 So first, he tried to like play the sounds of like dogs and stuff like that to try to scare the bear out of the basement.

00:13:30.900 And they came to him and they said, you can't play any noises to scare away the bear.

00:13:35.280 Only we can play noises to scare away the bear.

00:13:37.420 Wait, he's not allowed to.

00:13:38.960 People are allowed to play anything they want in their own house as long as there's not like a person's nuisance.

00:13:42.820 Not if it disrupts a bear.

00:13:43.980 Brown bears are not a threat.

00:13:49.160 This is a black bear, Simone.

00:13:51.700 Sorry, a black bear.

00:13:52.900 I'm sorry.

00:13:53.680 Black bears are scientifically more aggressive.

00:13:56.380 Are they?

00:13:57.340 Wait, wait.

00:13:58.140 I don't know.

00:13:58.820 I'm making like fake racist claims. 0.98

00:14:01.720 OK, because we all know that white bears are the most dangerous bears that eat people's faces. 0.98

00:14:05.440 White bears are the most dangerous bears.

00:14:07.060 That's true.

00:14:07.660 I mean, at least he doesn't have a white bear in his basement.

00:14:09.480 Thank God.

00:14:09.780 This isn't even woke nonsense.

00:14:11.160 White bears are genuinely the most dangerous bears.

00:14:14.320 Yeah. 0.94

00:14:14.940 And, you know, the black bears are very, I think, just base all racial stereotypes on bears.

00:14:24.400 Actually, what kind of, yellow bears are the nicest, smartest bears, aren't they?

00:14:28.840 It's a little rotund.

00:14:30.460 I thought, wait, grizzly, I thought black bears were the nicest.

00:14:33.600 I'm referring to Winnie the Pooh.

00:14:35.720 Oh my God.

00:14:37.420 And Xi Jinping is Winnie the Pooh.

00:14:39.360 Coincidence?

00:14:40.240 Coincidence?

00:14:40.680 Coincidence, Chinese propaganda, the bear system. 0.87

00:14:44.060 The bear system.

00:14:44.980 We got yellow bears.

00:14:46.280 We've got black bears. 0.60

00:14:47.520 We've got brown bears.

00:14:49.060 The Winnie the Pooh is just a sweet little guy.

00:14:52.080 He's just a sweet little guy.

00:14:53.580 He's wise.

00:14:54.700 The Tao of Pooh.

00:14:56.920 Right?

00:14:57.700 Holy smokes.

00:14:59.320 Bear conspiracy.

00:15:01.360 Me.

00:15:02.240 Oh, it's happening, guys.

00:15:04.200 It's happening.

00:15:04.800 So, but, but, but, so he's, he's been without hot water or water, I think at all, since Christmas.

00:15:11.840 Wait, is this man still living in his house?

00:15:13.600 Yeah, he's living in his house.

00:15:14.540 So he lives upstairs and he can hear the bear downstairs.

00:15:18.800 Okay, so let's say he needs to pick up a prescription at the pharmacy.

00:15:23.760 How does he leave his home?

00:15:25.020 He just shares the driveway with the bear.

00:15:27.840 He just walks real fast.

00:15:29.060 Bear that made its den under an Altadena home, still refusing to leave after more than a month.

00:15:36.380 Now the homeowner there says that this massive bear has done damage to his pipes, forcing him to shut off the gear.

00:15:42.880 Bear walking up and down his driveway, going back to its home, you know.

00:15:47.280 Wait, so the bear enters and exits?

00:15:49.980 Yeah, the bear enters and exits the home.

00:15:52.020 No, okay, then he needs to reinforce his house whenever, through, through a basement window.

00:15:57.980 Well, then he needs to board up the basement window.

00:16:00.540 Exactly.

00:16:01.040 So that appears to be, like, the same thing he should be doing that he's not doing.

00:16:05.620 I'm sorry, this man, okay, now this is, this is looking a little different.

00:16:10.940 Now.

00:16:11.140 It was a little, it was a little suspicious when he felt bad for the other bear that got relocated at first.

00:16:16.760 I'm like, oh, that's sweet of him.

00:16:18.120 This man cares about bears.

00:16:22.020 Well, I actually would be a little worried about doing it.

00:16:25.280 Sorting up your basement?

00:16:26.520 Why?

00:16:27.100 Because you think he would just throw it?

00:16:28.180 Then I could force the bear to come through a window, right?

00:16:30.720 Like, this, this is where the bear is, is hibernating, right?

00:16:34.560 Like, this is, it's, well, black bears don't fully hibernate in this part of California.

00:16:38.140 They do what's called, I want to say, like, denning or something, or nesting.

00:16:42.340 They hurkle-durkle. 1.00

00:16:43.820 They, yeah, they, they find a spot that is like hibernation, but they still go out a lot.

00:16:48.260 But I'd be very worried about blocking off the entrance to my basement that doesn't go through my living room.

00:16:54.420 If I had a, a very large 550 pound bear coming in there regularly.

00:16:59.240 I guess they do, they'll break car windows.

00:17:01.880 That's, that's why they tell you if you're camping in California, just never leave food in your car.

00:17:06.740 But hold on, Simone, this isn't the only case of this happening in the U.S.

00:17:09.760 So I want to tell you about another case that happens regularly, which is perhaps even crazier, given what we've gone through with the family.

00:17:17.020 Okay.

00:17:21.980 There have been numerous cases across the U.S. where homeowners discovered large bat colonies in their attics or homes and found themselves unable to evict them due to federal or state protections.

00:17:35.700 Dude, you just don't tell anyone and you gas them all.

00:17:38.540 What's wrong with people?

00:17:40.780 So if you've got to deal with, we have found rabid bats on our property.

00:17:45.480 Yeah, like actually sent in, tested, positive for rabies bats.

00:17:51.440 Bats with rabies is very, very common.

00:17:55.340 It is extremely dangerous to have a large bat colony in your attic of living bats.

00:18:03.720 And these aren't even always in the attic.

00:18:05.820 Sometimes they're like in a room in the house or something.

00:18:08.700 And they cannot be evicted in many places during maternity seasons when flightless pups are present. 0.70

00:18:16.560 Evicting adults to orphan and kill the young, which is viewed as illegal or inhumane.

00:18:21.200 Homeowners also cannot harm, poison, or seal bats in.

00:18:25.660 They must wait till the end of the season.

00:18:31.000 So there was a case in...

00:18:32.360 So we treat bats in the United States better than China treated its own citizens during COVID-19. 0.76

00:18:40.920 We literally do.

00:18:42.260 We've got a problem in this country.

00:18:43.540 Oh, well, at least the bats are okay.

00:18:50.340 Right?

00:18:51.500 I mean, we did try to use the bats to burn down part of Asia at one point.

00:18:55.920 You're familiar with the whole bat bomb thing during World War II? 0.94

00:18:58.660 No, was this like some different version of Acoustic Kitty, the fire bat?

00:19:03.420 It was actually a pretty clever system, but they just never implemented it.

00:19:07.160 Did they just light bats on fire and send them away?

00:19:09.760 What happened?

00:19:10.260 They were going to, this was in Japan, release bats with small incendiary bombs on them.

00:19:17.380 And the reason they were going to do it is these were bombs designed to start fires.

00:19:21.380 And where bats go to like roost are like addictions and stuff like that, which typically have wood.

00:19:28.320 So it was detonation.

00:19:31.300 Yeah, so it would have been bringing flammable explosives to a location that would be extremely flammable.

00:19:38.940 And, you know, useful to catch on fire in a wartime, right?

00:19:42.600 That makes sense, because my first instinct was, why would you try to get bats to deliver anything?

00:19:47.420 I mean, we've all seen bats fly, and they are the flimsiest flyers.

00:19:51.280 You know, you watch them fly, and you're like, are you okay?

00:19:53.500 Like, I don't think you've got this.

00:19:55.840 I don't think you're a flight animal.

00:19:58.420 I've seen chickens fly better than you.

00:19:59.880 I've been watching a thing on bats, and a really interesting thing about bats is there are no terrestrial, sorry, walking bats.

00:20:09.260 I know, they can't fly, they can't walk.

00:20:11.280 I mean, the only thing they can do is hang well.

00:20:13.620 No, no, but what I mean is almost every other species that flies has re-evolved walking within some subgroup.

00:20:20.040 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:20:21.100 If anything, an awkward waddle.

00:20:22.680 I mean, it's so well that, like, some just choose to swim and walk instead, or just walk and walk.

00:20:27.760 Yeah, whether you're talking about birds, which have totally walking varieties, or flying insects, which have totally walking varieties, but you do not get this in bats.

00:20:36.680 The mystery, if you're wondering the mystery on why this is the case, the reason why is because bats, unlike every other species that has evolved flight, use their legs heavily in the flying process.

00:20:51.980 Is this why they fly in such an embarrassing fashion?

00:20:57.240 I love you saying embarrassing.

00:20:58.740 You are embarrassed about the way they see.

00:21:00.880 Honestly, I cannot watch them without, like, oh, no.

00:21:07.020 Come on, it hurts.

00:21:07.940 It hurts to watch.

00:21:10.200 Well, they're a very successful clade of species.

00:21:13.440 Like, if you go.

00:21:14.100 Yeah, Stephen Hawking was very successful as a person, but you'd watch him wheel along, and he'd be kind of like, oh, I feel for you, man.

00:21:21.660 Like, you're killing it.

00:21:22.760 I mean, he did so much better than most of us, but, like, it didn't look smooth.

00:21:26.960 Bats have been extremely biologically successful.

00:21:29.680 If life was to evolve going into the future, bats would be one of the main things we have around and evolving.

00:21:36.340 I think so.

00:21:37.080 Yeah, and if you look at Life After Man, or the guy who did that, he did some other stuff.

00:21:40.660 Douglas something, I want to say.

00:21:43.060 I really like his books.

00:21:44.040 I really like Man After Man.

00:21:44.460 Douglas Adams?

00:21:45.600 The guy who wrote Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, right?

00:21:48.100 No, it's Douglas something.

00:21:48.940 Anyway, he wrote Man After Man, which is one of my favorite books, and I've been meaning to get it again.

00:21:53.300 I had a copy, but I came, but they're, like, $200 now.

00:21:55.660 We're so bad with names.

00:21:56.580 I've probably got that wrong.

00:21:57.260 I keep trying to get it on eBay, and I'm like, well, I'll wait until we have that source of income.

00:22:00.960 So we'll get RFAB.

00:22:02.260 Hey, RFAB is, like, stable, stable these days.

00:22:04.820 Did you get a chance to test it today?

00:22:07.800 No.

00:22:08.420 I'm still adjusting to our new schedule.

00:22:12.520 Lifestyle.

00:22:12.840 Well, you set up the extra running machine for Octavian next to you, and he spent all day, like, because we have a kid at home with us, working from home now.

00:22:21.300 Not working from, they don't, they don't work yet.

00:22:24.540 We haven't put them to work.

00:22:25.480 He's got to start working in a couple years.

00:22:26.960 That's our entire, today, he talked to me all about the merch he was going to set up for this show.

00:22:30.980 Yeah, like I was saying, he's talking about inventions.

00:22:32.880 He certainly has this mind on making money.

00:22:34.780 Yeah, and he also named his new toy, what was it?

00:22:38.780 Diamond, gold.

00:22:39.680 Rich, no.

00:22:40.700 No, he named his previous toys Gold and Diamond.

00:22:43.860 Now his next toy is Rich.

00:22:46.180 So, this kid's got earning potential.

00:22:48.580 And he was explaining merch to me today.

00:22:50.300 He's like, Dad, like, you've got to make the merch, and then you go to your fans, and you say, I got the merch, and then you give them the merch, and they give you money.

00:23:01.200 And I was like, I came in, you've got to invent the merch, then.

00:23:06.340 And he's like, I'm going to do it.

00:23:08.020 So, like, that's going to be the school project for this year.

00:23:10.880 He has to invent merch for the fans, right?

00:23:13.780 And so, I'll let him explore what options exist for merch.

00:23:18.480 I mean, next year can be genetically modifying dogs, right?

00:23:21.840 We'll see.

00:23:22.180 Well, I mean, that's the thing that's really going to sell, the genetically modified dogs.

00:23:26.780 Well, you think he could sell that to our fans, I think, right?

00:23:29.180 Yeah, more than just our fans.

00:23:31.040 I bet even our haters are going to love those.

00:23:32.840 But anyway, this guy has this one island in, like, future Earth where a bunch of bats became terrestrial.

00:23:40.100 One of the most famous, like, creatures, he has this giant, really scary-looking predatory bat species he invented that's, like, a land-dwelling in, like, five years ago.

00:23:47.400 There are predatory bats already.

00:23:49.880 Well, actually, what's really interesting is the bat that is the closest to being a walking bat.

00:23:55.100 There's two that are tied for it.

00:23:56.600 One walks further.

00:23:58.120 One walks more.

00:23:59.940 It has stronger legs for doing stuff like jumping and stuff like that.

00:24:02.820 And it walks by jumping.

00:24:04.400 Do you know what bat this is?

00:24:06.840 No.

00:24:08.040 The vampire bat.

00:24:10.040 The vampire bat is-

00:24:11.140 That makes sense.

00:24:12.100 Yeah, because it's going for terrestrial animals, so it needs more on-the-ground dexterity, I guess.

00:24:17.700 Another really crazy thing I learned recently, which I hadn't really thought about before, and I saw, like, a cool-

00:24:22.040 Like, YouTube on YouTube is great for hearing new ideas.

00:24:24.700 I love YouTube.

00:24:25.520 And then I condensed it all down for you guys, the fans, so you don't have to watch these full episodes to get to the points.

00:24:30.420 Doing God's work.

00:24:31.780 But it's that-

00:24:32.960 Did you know that the skull of Sue, you know the giant T-Rex that they have?

00:24:38.080 The giant T-Rex skull?

00:24:39.380 No, but sure.

00:24:40.740 It was one of the most complete skeletons we have of a T-Rex.

00:24:42.560 It has little markers across its lower jawbone that we can match to an avian disease, so we know it was killed by single-cell parasites.

00:24:52.440 And in avians, what that does is it causes so much pain that they can't eat anymore, and they eventually starve.

00:24:57.060 And so T-Rexes were killed by small parasites, and the video I was on was going into how common large parasites were in dinosaurs, like giant ticks, giant fleas, giant internal worms.

00:25:11.420 And one of the reasons is, and this is one of those things that I think a lot of people don't know, and it's actually interesting to talk about if you're talking about comparative biology, is dinosaurs just do not have very good immune systems, and there were not good immune systems back then.

00:25:25.900 So, like, you would just get- we've even found, like, parasites in the nests of dinosaurs, like fleas.

00:25:30.940 So they just grow up and then worms on them, fleas on them, everything like that.

00:25:34.380 They were killed with parasites.

00:25:36.200 And it was because they, one, didn't have, like, dexterous arms for, like, picking off parasites, like, in the way that birds can do it easily through pruning, or humans and apes can do it through, like, grooming each other.

00:25:48.760 They didn't have good immune systems.

00:25:50.360 And that's something that people who don't know a lot about biology, like, I actually, I- what- what biological system do birds have that is significantly better than biological systems that mammals have?

00:26:03.440 Like, what is their super system?

00:26:05.940 Do you- do you know this?

00:26:06.720 And dinosaurs probably had this as well.

00:26:10.920 I mean, I- I think their- their lightness of bones is really interesting and useful, but I don't think that's what you're going for here.

00:26:20.200 No, it's their respiratory system.

00:26:22.620 Their- their respiratory and circulatory system are- are significantly better than mammalian ones.

00:26:27.980 They're just, like, you know, like, you- you branch off and you look at comparative biology, and it's really interesting, because on some branches, you'll just be, like, oh, they're, like, millennium ahead of us in evolution in regards to-

00:26:38.980 So, to understand why this is the case.

00:26:41.580 So, in humans, when you breathe into your lungs-

00:26:46.420 Exhale, inhale.

00:26:47.040 You're- you're- you're filling up both of your lungs with air that is mixing with the deoxygenated air in your lungs.

00:26:53.840 And then you breathe out of your lungs, and then you breathe out.

00:26:57.340 So, you're always breathing in and breathing out to, like, the same system, right?

00:27:01.340 Yeah.

00:27:02.320 With- with birds, and I think it was dinosaurs, when they breathe in, think of it like a- a circulatory loop.

00:27:10.820 That would make so much more sense, yeah, from a design standpoint.

00:27:13.980 Yeah, so you breathe in completely fresh air.

00:27:15.560 Like, there's an intake in an exhaust pipe, yeah.

00:27:17.520 And you exhale completely exhausted air.

00:27:20.620 Yeah, that would make so much more sense, yeah.

00:27:22.780 It makes so much more sense.

00:27:24.160 And, well, there's other ones that, like, for example, amphibians have a totally nerfed heart, like, circulatory.

00:27:28.700 So, wait, but how does- is it- is it more than, like, heart valves, in the sense that, you know, they're sort of, like, one-way chambers and, like, blood vessels with birds?

00:27:37.500 Because, I mean, you see bird noses, and they just have little holes.

00:27:40.480 It's not like, I- oh, this is the bird's exhaust valve, and this is the bird's intake valve.

00:27:45.040 So, how does that work?

00:27:46.800 Simone, it's been decades since I learned this.

00:27:50.040 I have not gone over this recently, so I don't remember.

00:27:52.900 But the point I was going to make is the one system that humans have that is generally, or I'd say mammals more broadly have, that is, like, way ahead of birds, usually, not all birds, but most, is our immune system.

00:28:04.340 We have, like, just super awesome immune systems.

00:28:06.340 Oh, thank God for that.

00:28:07.040 And when you think about it, it's actually kind of wild.

00:28:09.320 There are few diseases that humans get.

00:28:12.280 Now, there were more in an ancestral time, which we've talked about with, like, the funguses, the eight people's faces, and stuff like that, that you don't just, like, get better from.

00:28:19.700 And that was not a thing historically, right?

00:28:22.140 Like, that we have an ability to develop an immunity to almost any disease.

00:28:28.920 Well, I mean, on a macro level, there are plenty of diseases that have taken out significant portions of the human population, even relatively recently with the great flu after World War I.

00:28:40.720 Yeah, you occasionally get these, but you have these in other species.

00:28:46.560 Did you know that right now, does it just, like, the random fact episode at this point?

00:28:51.260 Oh, boy.

00:28:51.760 Did you know right now that Tasmanian devils are nearing extinction?

00:28:55.800 Because in other episodes, I've talked about canine venereal transmissible cancer, which is a transmissible cancer in canines.

00:29:02.960 The only other mammals that have transmissible cancers, one is a hamster, it's a domesticated thing, and we can ignore it because it's so rare.

00:29:10.000 But the other is Tasmanian devils, and they have two forms in them, and they might be going extinct due to these, and they arrived only fairly recently.

00:29:18.200 They're only, like, 20 and 40 years old each.

00:29:21.720 Or devils.

00:29:22.900 And what's really weird is there's been some recent research into the ancestral bones of Tasmanian devils, and we're now seeing that they may have had outbreaks of transmissible cancers in the past.

00:29:36.120 Something about...

00:29:36.820 Well, they survived it once, at least.

00:29:39.200 Because they may have survived this in the past, like, the idea of, like, somebody coming through and wiping out a population.

00:29:44.740 And then, yeah.

00:29:46.540 But I found that really fascinating.

00:29:48.980 Any random facts if we're making this a random fact episode?

00:29:52.280 Because I don't want to bore you with a bunch of stuff about this one story.

00:29:54.780 I mean, I find this story interesting.

00:29:55.980 Well, no, I mean, just so we wrap this up, because we don't have to go further.

00:29:59.480 I just, I just, where are we, is it just to be continued with this guy?

00:30:05.220 Is the next headline, man, found dead in basement, eaten by bear?

00:30:08.900 Like, what, where are we going with this?

00:30:11.540 Well, you've seen this for a long time.

00:30:13.300 There have been a lot of instances of road departments, departments of transportation stuff, suing people for fixing potholes.

00:30:19.340 And we're sort of entering a timeline where government services are no longer doing their jobs, because they're just too saddled, bureaucratic.

00:30:29.040 I forget Pizza Hut had that famous campaign where it fixed potholes, but maybe it got permits for that.

00:30:34.720 It probably got permits for that, yeah.

00:30:36.080 And said, like, oh, we have government contractors, and somebody in the government was probably getting paid off.

00:30:40.420 But, yeah, as an individual, if you fix a pothole, you can be fined for that.

00:30:44.240 Because, you know, you're not doing it officially.

00:30:45.920 There was a case.

00:30:46.680 Ron Swanson did it in Parks and Rec, and that's how he met the woman he married.

00:30:51.640 Worked for the Parks Department, which I didn't realize.

00:30:55.480 So, what's really interesting about all of this, indendible immunity.

00:30:59.360 Qualified immunity was the word I was looking for.

00:31:01.540 I want to say that's what it's called, or whatever.

00:31:03.120 The thing that means that cops are, like, subject to different legal stuff when they're doing their jobs.

00:31:07.900 I wasn't aware of this, but this actually applies to all government professionals.

00:31:11.240 Whether they are, like, civil servants, or department employees.

00:31:14.840 So, it's a civil servant edition of diplomatic immunity.

00:31:17.680 That's really interesting.

00:31:18.160 Yeah, yeah.

00:31:18.640 So, like, they're probably not going to get in trouble for not doing anything about the bear.

00:31:21.620 It's, like, better for them to just do nothing, right?

00:31:23.680 You know, it's a big bear.

00:31:25.060 They don't want to deal with it.

00:31:26.380 Maybe this is what Asmongold has been on about so much, where he's like, the key thing is to just start arresting policemen when they don't actually stop bad things from happening.

00:31:34.540 And, I mean, then, I guess, if we were to remove whatever it is you're referring to, I've never heard of it before, indemnable immunity, then.

00:31:44.920 Well, there was a case recently where there was a, I want to say it was a shooting that was happening.

00:31:49.200 And a woman saw police hiding behind something, not doing anything.

00:31:52.940 And she ran to grab one of their guns, and they stopped her because she wanted to try to stop the shooter.

00:31:59.720 She tried to take a gun off a policeman? 0.99

00:32:02.800 To shoot an active shooter. 1.00

00:32:04.080 I love the balls on that. 1.00

00:32:05.840 You see an active shooter. 0.98

00:32:07.320 You see police people doing nothing.

00:32:09.120 And you're like, I don't have a gun, but they've got guns. 0.99

00:32:12.620 Yeah, that woman does have cojones. 1.00

00:32:14.140 I love that. 0.99

00:32:14.880 Wow.

00:32:15.680 Okay.

00:32:16.700 I mean.

00:32:17.600 That is the world we live in now.

00:32:19.500 Yes.

00:32:21.000 I'll go take down this active shooter.

00:32:23.760 AI can't find this incident, so maybe I'm misremembering something.

00:32:27.720 It thinks the incident that I am misremembering is the Yule Vade school shooting, where during the incident, police officers had women yelling at them to do something.

00:32:39.380 So maybe that's what I'm misremembering.

00:32:41.460 I don't know.

00:32:42.120 Having to live with bears.

00:32:43.020 I can imagine a few things more horrifying.

00:32:45.240 I mean, imagine if there were kids in the house.

00:32:46.480 No, no.

00:32:47.260 This man is letting the bear in.

00:32:48.660 I'm done with this man.

00:32:50.540 He's shot the bear.

00:32:52.760 He's, I don't know.

00:32:54.240 He's like asking for permission to play dogs barking in his own home.

00:32:59.100 No, no, no.

00:33:00.980 This man deserves the bear.

00:33:02.720 No, Malcolm, I will.

00:33:06.760 Parks Department comes to our house.

00:33:08.660 There's a dead bear in our house.

00:33:10.200 Officer, he charged at me.

00:33:12.120 It's so easy.

00:33:14.080 The only problem for us is, which gun are we going to use?

00:33:17.340 Is it going to be the Beretta?

00:33:18.440 It's definitely going to, it's not going to be the AR-15.

00:33:20.720 I'm saving that for a human.

00:33:21.980 It's going to be the Beretta right behind me.

00:33:23.320 I'm saving that for a human?

00:33:24.880 She wants, she wants to be used.

00:33:27.220 She's just waiting for it.

00:33:27.920 That's a very pretty gun.

00:33:29.160 You know, that, that's a bear shooting gun.

00:33:31.200 You're going to use your Beretta over under shotgun. 0.92

00:33:33.500 That, I mean, oh God, like the first kill for that gun.

00:33:36.620 Simone, you at least should have somebody with a backup with an AR because you need to, you need to be able to pump out a lot fairly quickly if the bear is not killed on the first shot.

00:33:46.780 Okay, okay, fine, the AR.

00:33:49.180 Fair point.

00:33:50.620 Fair point.

00:33:51.720 I, but I love how you feel about guns.

00:33:54.540 This is very, I think it very, it shows that.

00:33:57.300 Oh my God, I just realized.

00:33:59.620 So I was thinking like in this room, how many weapons do I have?

00:34:02.140 I have the Beretta and then I have the, I literally have the arrows and the bow, though I'd have to string the bow.

00:34:07.360 But then in that drawer right there, what do I have?

00:34:11.780 What do I have?

00:34:13.520 I have bear spray.

00:34:14.840 Bear spray.

00:34:15.900 In a region with bears.

00:34:17.220 I have bear spray.

00:34:19.240 It's just like, we're so ready for this.

00:34:22.140 And this is why I have zero patience for this man.

00:34:24.860 When like, I don't even live in a region with bears.

00:34:27.380 And I literally have bear spray that I sleep right next to every night.

00:34:33.820 No, but the way you talk about this, I actually wonder if this is, is this true across human populations?

00:34:38.580 This is so appropriate, his little bear costume.

00:34:40.500 And I want, I want commenters to weigh in on this.

00:34:43.200 I don't know if this is true across human populations or if this is a, a some human population thing.

00:34:47.880 Like, or a culturally specific thing.

00:34:50.360 But when I was growing up, like there's two things that I always want, you know, you, you, you, I would build like.

00:34:57.800 Forts and traps and stuff like that.

00:35:00.100 And, and fantasize about somebody coming to try to break into my fort or trap.

00:35:07.360 And all of the things that I would trigger on them, which we haven't done a video on this.

00:35:12.060 We'll do it next Christmas because I wanted to do this over Christmas, but we weren't filming over Christmas.

00:35:15.240 Is how Home Alone and the reason why it became so popular in the United States, I think it's because it appealed to the greater Appalachian cultural value system of the Jack Tales.

00:35:23.800 Where you have the young, you know, not, not overly masculine trickster.

00:35:28.540 Who's just dreams of messing.

00:35:32.080 And he, he messes with like random strangers as well.

00:35:35.180 No, he, he only is truly nice to people whose society rejects.

00:35:39.080 And we'll get into like all of the interesting morality of this.

00:35:41.900 But the point being is I've always fantasized about this.

00:35:45.580 Like whenever I was growing up or even as an adult, like setting things up, like, okay, when we have an intruder, what am I going to do?

00:35:52.800 And Simone's here, like, which guns do I want to use on the bear?

00:35:56.160 And I wonder if others.

00:35:57.140 What's going to kill us at the end is we're going to be like, oh, but I could, but I just, oh, so many choices.

00:36:02.780 So little time.

00:36:03.760 I'm, I'm probably only going to get to do this once.

00:36:06.580 And I've got a choice of exit.

00:36:08.700 I've waited for this moment my whole life.

00:36:10.680 And now it's here.

00:36:11.480 And it's so overwhelming.

00:36:13.700 Oh my God.

00:36:14.820 We should stop at that.

00:36:15.840 But I don't know if this is cross-culturally or I don't know if this is.

00:36:19.520 No, no, this is a Scots-Irish thing.

00:36:22.240 I've, no, I've only encountered people of our, our ilk with this kind of.

00:36:29.280 Well, we'll see.

00:36:29.800 The comments will tell us.

00:36:30.780 The comments will tell us.

00:36:32.060 I love the comments. 0.99

00:36:32.780 You guys are actually crazy. 0.99

00:36:35.380 Like nobody else is like this. 0.99

00:36:37.660 This is completely.

00:36:38.820 We know that Home Alone would not be a Christmas classic if there weren't this big sentiment.

00:36:46.900 If this weren't a very common trait, at least.

00:36:50.660 This is a wholesome and ethical movie to watch, but it's only wholesome and ethical from a very

00:36:55.680 neuro-cultural perspective.

00:36:56.800 And this is what gets me with the recent, you know, Jewish Radio We Did and a bunch of 1.00

00:36:59.840 people, even the whole point of video.

00:37:01.120 It's like claiming people are anti-Semitic for things that are clearly not anti-Semitic

00:37:05.400 is what causes more and more people to become anti-Semitic.

00:37:08.120 But many people in that were just like, you're anti-Semitic.

00:37:10.340 You can see it.

00:37:10.880 You know what you're doing.

00:37:11.900 And I'm like, I said nothing in that video that was not worse than what I say about my

00:37:16.440 own people regularly.

00:37:18.280 So I just, I find this like pearl clutching around like, and when I say it about my own

00:37:23.100 people, I say it because it's factual, right?

00:37:24.640 Like, I mean, I, I, what I realized is, oh, they don't mean it's not factual.

00:37:29.820 They just mean it's bad.

00:37:31.100 And to me, I thought like in my head, something is really only like, like, let's say phobic

00:37:37.360 in a way, if it's anti-factual, right?

00:37:40.280 If it's, if it's not derived at through a pure.

00:37:43.560 Oh, like if it's not legitimate criticism.

00:37:46.600 Yeah.

00:37:47.000 Yeah.

00:37:47.480 And now I've realized, oh, like, even if it's like, from my perspective, like my version

00:37:51.920 of anti, I'd be like, you, you say my people are violent.

00:37:54.700 How dare you?

00:37:56.080 And I've realized why this shocked me is people rarely do this about their own culture.

00:38:00.540 So if I say something like black communities have higher rates of crime, even when you control 1.00

00:38:05.860 for income, black people are going to be like, yeah, that's like legitimate criticism and 1.00

00:38:11.160 something that we're working on intraculturally and like white women will scream at you racist. 1.00

00:38:16.540 But black people will very rarely call you a racist for stating like a well-known fact

00:38:20.960 like that.

00:38:21.540 Whereas I've realized that there is a portion of the Jewish community and a large one, like

00:38:27.020 much larger than the portion of, let's say the black community or the Indian community

00:38:29.880 or any other community that will go to the white Karen screaming anti-Semitic.

00:38:34.880 If you say an equivalent thing about the Jewish community.

00:38:38.900 And that's why I was so shocked because it wasn't white Karen screaming this.

00:38:43.540 It was Jews. 0.88

00:38:44.840 And no, I'm saying white Karens, like again, attacking my own community here. 1.00

00:38:48.840 It is the white Karens who make these ridiculous accusations all the time and cause a lot of 1.00

00:38:52.700 problems in our society. 0.97

00:38:53.880 The other thing that I realized after doing that episode is that the word anti-Semitic is

00:38:57.760 often used in a way that I didn't expect it to be, which caused some confusion in my head.

00:39:02.540 Basically, it doesn't mean for a lot of people against the Jewish community.

00:39:07.360 It means against the interests of the Jewish community. 0.98

00:39:10.240 And these are two very different things.

00:39:12.180 So if I, somebody who actively supported Israel throughout the Gaza war and the military aid

00:39:17.960 we gave them throughout the Gaza war, say something like, we can cut off Israel after 75 years 0.94

00:39:23.560 of foreign aid and helping them in numerous wars.

00:39:27.180 Person might say that certainly not anti-Jewish, but it is anti the interest of the Jewish community. 0.91

00:39:33.580 It's not actively helping them anymore.

00:39:36.080 And because of that, it is definitionally in these people's minds, anti-Semitic.

00:39:40.400 Or I can say something like, there doesn't seem to be any plan to pay America back for

00:39:46.400 nearly a century of support.

00:39:48.640 And as such, it doesn't make a lot of sense to continue that support.

00:39:52.400 And they can say in one statement, well, of course we don't plan to pay you back.

00:39:57.020 And it's anti-Semitic for you to say that.

00:39:59.600 Whereas they're just affirming the very thing I said.

00:40:03.180 And so I was wondering, well, how is that anti-Semitic then?

00:40:06.260 And it's like, oh, it's anti-Semitic because it is against the interests of the Jewish people

00:40:09.400 for this to be conceptualized in this way.

00:40:12.400 And I think even the point that I feel an interest in rehashing this

00:40:15.400 because so many people claimed I was anti-Semitic in the video

00:40:17.540 goes further to solidify the video's points.

00:40:20.360 One of the reasons why people keep bringing this stuff up again and again and again

00:40:23.800 is because they are called anti-Semitic for things that within most definitions of anti-Semitic,

00:40:30.000 and we're using anti-Semitic in the way we use the term racist or something,

00:40:33.140 is just not anti-Semitic.

00:40:35.100 And then that causes more stuff like this to happen and more ideas like this to be aired,

00:40:40.420 which ends up in the long-term hurting the perception of the Jewish community,

00:40:43.700 which is very unfortunate.

00:40:45.560 And it's like, well, anyway, I love you, Simone.

00:40:48.460 I love you so much.

00:40:49.860 We'll see how a shorter episode does.

00:40:51.520 I love you too.

00:40:52.520 It's on today's video.

00:40:54.180 A lot of people do this already.

00:40:56.180 A lot of people already dissociate.

00:40:58.180 Yeah, a lot of people, that's what I saw in the comments.

00:40:59.820 People were just like, yeah.

00:41:00.560 I always do that.

00:41:01.680 Yeah.

00:41:02.660 It might also be that a lot of autistic people have more of an inclination to do it naturally,

00:41:09.280 and I'm not sure why.

00:41:10.380 It could, one theory could just be that, and we joked about this in other episodes,

00:41:15.240 just leaving the house is so traumatic as it is.

00:41:17.980 Just doing anything that slightly interrupts your schedule is so distressing that

00:41:21.800 you develop that kind of coping mechanism as much as someone in, like, a normal person

00:41:28.740 in an abusive relationship would, you know, because you're just freaking out about such 1.00

00:41:32.760 stupid stuff. 1.00

00:41:34.220 But I don't know. 1.00

00:41:35.680 I really don't.

00:41:36.380 It could also be the autistic lack of interest in emotion and modeling of other people,

00:41:44.660 perhaps including self.

00:41:46.500 I'm not sure.

00:41:47.300 People had some interesting things to say about their trauma-driven discovery or adoption

00:41:54.740 of dissociation as a coping mechanism, which they then, in some cases, adapted to their

00:42:01.100 everyday life in functional ways.

00:42:03.860 And some people shared really sad stories about abuse.

00:42:07.840 It made me want to go back and hug their past selves, and I'm glad most of the people who

00:42:12.360 commented about said abuse have left those situations or grown out of them.

00:42:17.300 So that's my summary.

00:42:18.720 Oh my gosh.

00:42:19.520 You are so sweet.

00:42:22.220 All right.

00:42:22.820 I'll get started here.

00:42:28.980 Yes!

00:42:29.500 Finally!

00:42:33.460 It took off.

00:42:34.580 It looks like a dog or a mouse.

00:42:50.380 Yeah, that's because it's a bad drawing.

00:42:52.220 That's why we need to know how to read, too, right?

00:42:53.220 I have a hat.

00:42:54.220 Good.

00:42:55.220 I have a hat.

00:42:56.220 Oh, you did it, buddy!

00:42:57.220 I have a hat.

00:42:58.220 I have a hat.

00:42:59.220 I have a hat.

00:43:00.220 It looks like a dog or a mouse.

00:43:01.220 Yeah, that's because it's a bad drawing.

00:43:03.220 That's why we need to know how to read, too, right?

00:43:05.220 I have a hat.

00:43:07.220 I have a hat.

00:43:08.220 I have a hat.

00:43:09.220 Good.

00:43:10.220 I have a hat.

00:43:11.220 Oh, you did it, buddy!

00:43:12.220 I have a hat.

00:43:13.220 Ah, man!

00:43:14.220 I have a hat.

00:43:15.220 I have a hat.

00:43:16.220 Amen!

00:43:17.220 Amen!

00:43:18.220 Amen!

00:43:19.220 Amen!

00:43:20.220 Amen!

00:43:22.220 Amen!
