00:00:00.000 there's just no there there it's just like the pure superficiality and i think there's also that
00:00:06.160 like social proof where don't you feel like this and and sorry i know rfh is on here but like i i
00:00:14.140 said this about uh taylor swift insult the ladies once again this is not good game in many ways or
00:00:24.660 maybe it is great game i'm negging uh who knows but i i felt with taylor swift where it was like
00:00:31.280 it wasn't so much that anyone liked her music it's that they wanted to like her music
00:00:38.320 you have a desire for a desire as kojev would say like it's it's not how do i say this like
00:00:47.940 it's it's not so much that when someone donates to charity or something they give
00:00:55.880 a thousand bucks to the food bank or to toys for tots or after school programs it's not so much
00:01:07.540 that they want to do that because they think it's effective and it's it's more that they want to be
00:01:15.940 the type of person who wants to do who does that type of thing it's a desire for a desire there's
00:01:23.020 there's a lack the desire is bracketed there's a lack of actual desire but there's a desire to be
00:01:29.660 the person who desires that and i feel like that is with taylor swift where no one actually likes
00:01:36.860 her music but it's this notion of a sort of healthy the relatable beautiful but maybe not
00:01:50.580 too beautiful woman as a pop star they want to desire her as an icon of whom they want to be
00:02:01.880 and and that's no one actually thinks that those songs are good they're sort of faking them
00:02:09.700 themselves out i mean i remember when i was playing when i was on the football team in
00:02:15.260 um in high school we would run wind sprints after practice which are very hard and we would run like
00:02:23.160 20 you know like 40 yard wind sprints just go and then you you get like a 10 second breather at most
00:02:31.340 and then go back and it is exhausting and I mean a lot some people do give up and some people like
00:02:40.740 fake a cramp or some people just can't do it and I remember telling myself I was sort of gaslighting
00:02:48.560 myself I would say one more and then you're gonna fake a cramp just one more and then you get to
00:02:54.440 fake a cramp and you say that like after five once you're a little bit winded and then after 10 you're
00:02:59.860 like all right just one more and then fake a cramp and then once you get to like 17 you're like all
00:03:04.200 right i don't need to even gaslight myself because we we've done it what does three more even mean at
00:03:09.260 this point and that's what i'm talking about like we're we do those women like even looks maxed clav
00:03:19.600 is he truly the most handsome man you've ever seen i don't think so to be honest
00:03:28.560 certainly good looking tom cruise has the goods brad pitt has the goods mel gibson
00:03:36.280 at least back in the day these are all my generation movie stars they they had the goods 0.94
00:03:41.840 i mean no homo these men are damn handsome uh and they're charismatic it's hard not to like them 0.98
00:03:49.680 when they're on screen hasan piker certainly not what hasan piker certainly not but yeah oh god 0.95
00:03:58.100 yeah um but it's they have the goods and there's like a direct attraction to them you know um
00:04:09.300 women want them and men want to be them there's a direct attraction with clavicular i'm not saying
00:04:15.980 he's not handsome but it's like the social proof women go there and they are themselves performing
00:04:23.680 their own desire i i don't think they have an actual desire i i think they've they they want to
00:04:31.860 depict themselves as the type of woman who is like that and i just think that that's happening
00:04:39.840 you can't take away the the the streaming camera from that fantasy you know there's like a
00:04:49.540 difference and i don't know if you've ever had this fantasy yourselves but i guess this is another
00:04:55.740 way of describing what i'm getting at is that self-awareness of the fantasy a dream within a
00:05:02.040 dream like it's one it's one thing to to have a fantasy of being like and this is a male fantasy
00:05:08.840 of like a knight in shining armor and you go rescue a princess or something like that it's
00:05:14.060 one thing to have that fantasy which is itself enveloped in uh film and books and
00:05:20.700 pictures things you've seen it's it's already sort of enveloped it's not the real fantasy
00:05:26.960 the real fantasy is pure lust but this one is articulated in a sort of scene but it's another
00:05:34.360 thing to like imagine yourself in a movie you know like you are the actor in a movie about the
00:05:43.660 middle ages you you've already added another layer of self-awareness to the whole scene or 0.96
00:05:50.260 it's one thing to fantasize about fucking a porn star but it's another thing to fantasize about 0.97
00:05:57.040 being in a pornography film so you've already the the camera itself is kind of the super ego it's a 0.99
00:06:05.400 it's a an awareness of the fact that it's not really real
00:06:10.520 i've delved into hegelian lacanian freudian psychology to explain clav
00:06:20.980 but i hope you are understanding what i'm saying here
