Saturday Night Live is mocking Joe Biden, and Giselle and Pete Davidson are getting divorced, and Scott Adams talks about why he thinks it's a good idea to get a divorce. Plus, how to survive a nuclear attack.
00:04:05.780Because I think he has enough conventional weapons to wipe out, you know, the civilian infrastructure in Ukraine.
00:04:12.660If he wants to do bad things, he's, he's got other options that won't definitely kill him.
00:04:17.540Well, speaking of Saturday Night Live, makes me think of Pete Davidson, which makes me think of Tom Brady and Giselle, you know, Tom Brady and Giselle, whose last name is not terribly pronounceable by me right now.
00:04:37.400But as bad as a divorce is, what do you think Tom Brady is the most worried about with this divorce?
00:04:48.500I'm going to put it out there that he would be most worried that his ex, Giselle, would start dating Pete Davidson.
00:04:56.280I feel like that would be the worst case scenario.
00:04:58.980It's like, okay, a divorce is terrible, but there is one thing worse than getting divorced.
00:10:24.860But a 17-hour gap would actually explain a maintenance fix.
00:10:31.020Because they might have been working on them at the same time, and whatever problem they found on one might have been common to all of them.
00:10:38.300So maybe it was just a difference of when they exploded.
00:10:41.840But apparently Russian maintenance is famously not thorough.
00:10:48.080All right, so what do you think of that?
00:12:27.260But don't you want to know this one question?
00:12:32.000If that kind of pipeline is turned off and not meticulously maintained, what are the odds of it blowing up within, let's say, six months?
00:12:42.960If the answer is every expert says the odds are pretty high, then I would say that's what happened.
00:12:53.080Who would agree with me that if we could get an answer to this, and of course our news sources are useless, because isn't this the one and only question?
00:13:02.880What were the odds of it happening naturally?
00:13:06.620I've never seen anybody answer that question on the news, have you?
00:13:10.440Have you ever seen a pipeline maintenance person on the news answer the question, could this have blown up on its own if it were closed down, full of gas, and poorly maintained?
00:13:23.660Am I wrong that that's the central question, and you've never seen anybody even ask it or try to answer it?
00:13:33.440You know, I've told you before that I've speculated that the most value that we could do here is to tell our media what they're not telling us that we need to know.
00:13:45.380Because the stuff they don't tell you totally influences what you think about the story, and that's the biggest question, and nobody's telling us the answer to the biggest question.
00:13:57.540And by the way, how hard would it be to get that answer?
00:14:01.580All you have to do is go to any expert who does this kind of work, there must be plenty of Americans who have this expertise, just put them on the air and say, what do you think?
00:14:15.380I feel like the news is so in the bag for the government that maybe the government wants the thought that it was blown up by a military operation.
00:15:15.300Because in both cases, conservatives insist that the solution is readily available if we would just take it, but it's not even a possible solution in both cases.
00:15:26.300So conservatives would say, well, if the fentanyl is coming from Mexico, which it is, build that wall, get your border security tight, and problem solved.
00:15:38.100So as long as conservatives think there is a solution, they don't need to look for any new solution.
00:15:45.820Except that the wall we're building has gaps in it this big between the slats, and the total amount of fentanyl it would take to kill everybody in your city would be held in your hand.
00:16:00.160So all you'd have to do is hand it to somebody on the other side of the wall.
00:16:04.300And say, Bob, hey, I'll give you $100,000 if you'll take this little wad of fentanyl and give it to my friend across the street.
00:16:13.780There's nothing you can do to stop the shipment of fentanyl that's completely not on the table.
00:16:22.800But conservatives have made the argument about the wall.
00:16:27.000So as long as you're arguing about the wall, as long as you're arguing about the wall, you're not doing anything for fentanyl.
00:16:35.420But if you can say you are, then politically, I guess you're done, right?
00:16:39.680Oh, politically, we said we're building a wall, but those Democrats won't let us, so I guess there's nothing you can do about fentanyl except increase some penalties, which, big deal.
00:16:52.000If they were serious about fentanyl, they would be negotiating with the cartels.
00:16:58.540We would ask them for an ambassador, and we would sit them down with some immunity so that they can actually talk to us.
00:17:06.980And we'd say, you've crossed the line, and we're just going to pave your whole fucking country, or at least the cartel parts, not the civilian parts.
00:17:19.120We're going to take out the cartel completely, militarily, with no limitations on our actions, unless you stop fentanyl right now.
00:17:28.640We should at least give them the offer, because they are a business, right?
00:17:33.100We're going to talk about PayPal in a little while.
00:17:52.880We can play cat and mouse with you with, you know, the old crimes that you're doing.
00:17:57.580But if you send one more box of fentanyl our way, the entire military of the United States is going to hunt you down and kill every one of you.
00:18:10.040I would think any business would take that seriously and say, all right, from a profit and loss perspective, we should focus on these other things that don't get the entire military in our pants.
00:18:24.460If we're not negotiating with the cartels directly, top of government to top of government, meaning the cartel government themselves, we're not serious.
00:18:35.880How can you be serious if you haven't even had a conversation?
00:25:31.340But I can wear the Black Lives Matter shirt completely without any sense of irony or sarcasm or anything because I can completely embrace the idea because now the political part is sort of stripped down.
00:25:56.820So yesterday or last night, I guess, he got restricted or some kind of throttling going on on Instagram because he sent a message to Diddy or somebody, and I'm quoting.
00:26:15.200And I don't know what this means because this is what Yeh said, that he was going to go death con three on Jewish people tomorrow.
00:26:26.820But that he can't be anti-Semitic because he's black and black people are Jewish.
00:26:33.960Now, let me, often I have to interpret things for you because sometimes you'll see things in the news and then you'll wait for me to explain to you, like, why it all makes sense.
00:26:46.900And maybe you're missing the point and that maybe, you know, it's taken out of context and it's misinterpreted.
00:26:52.780So let me explain to you, because nobody else will do it for you.
00:26:58.140Let me explain to you what Yeh means when he says he's going to go death con three on all Jewish people and black people are Jewish so he can't be anti-Semitic.
00:29:20.000I saw when I said that, you know, we've all come together over the BLM stuff.
00:29:26.540I also tweeted, you know, can we fix education now?
00:29:32.820Because if we can agree that, you know, black lives matter, maybe that's like a little stepping stone toward working together on just something small to give some, you know, maybe some confidence that we can work together.
00:29:50.920And then I saw a comment from Twitter user Jeremy Kaufman, who notes rather provocatively that he says that either outcomes, he's talking about school grades and the differences between black and white outcomes.
00:30:07.880And he says either outcomes differ on average by race, uh-oh, or public school teachers are the most racist people in the country.
00:30:15.780So he believes there's only two explanations for why, and then he showed some data.
00:30:20.820I don't know how credible the data is, but it's suggested that poor white kids do about the same as rich white kids in school.
