Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of civilization.
00:00:12.600
Will Scott wake up? I don't know. We'll find out.
00:00:16.700
But you've come to the place that's the most amazing place and the best place
00:00:20.180
you could ever be. Forget about that Apple announcement that's happening
00:00:23.960
at the same time. You don't care. It's unimportant.
00:00:27.560
But if you'd like your experience to go to levels never-before-seen,
00:00:32.120
all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or chalice or stein,
00:00:39.440
Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
00:00:42.700
And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day,
00:00:46.380
the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip.
00:00:51.600
Ah. Yes, you can see behind me, there will be a whiteboard today,
00:01:00.600
which means it's the best kind of day. There's nothing better than whiteboard day.
00:01:15.000
They're making a wearable birth control for men.
00:01:27.940
You put that on, and you have no chance of mating whatsoever.
00:01:42.260
AR has got to be alone reality, and VR would be virgin reality.
00:01:50.020
But they say it will be used for the valuable processes of gaming,
00:01:55.680
messaging, and tracking your health in unspecific ways.
00:02:08.060
My question for you is, has Tim Cook introduced a new product
00:02:12.380
that was a whole new category before, that succeeded?
00:02:18.940
Because I feel like it's just been iPads and phones and new software.
00:02:32.880
I've got a feeling this is the kind of product category
00:02:50.180
My new opinion is, Steve Jobs would not have created mixed reality headsets.
00:03:03.120
Or would he have said, no, you don't want that on your head.
00:03:08.540
Oh, actually, the Apple earbuds, earbuds or whatever they are,
00:03:16.120
the Apple earbuds came under Tim Cook, and those are amazing.
00:03:22.680
By the way, do your earbuds make your ears itch?
00:03:32.400
I can only use the earbuds for maybe one day in a row.
00:03:36.700
Well, if I use them for two days in a row, my ears will itch, like, insanely.
00:03:44.860
I saw a study that there's some kind of vibrational thing that happens there.
00:03:56.820
You can say it a million times, but it's not about washing them.
00:04:11.260
but he seems to think that RFK Jr. could beat both of them.
00:04:28.660
I think he's saying it's the end of the American empire.
00:04:42.120
I saw Ashley St. Clair was tweeting about this.
00:04:45.620
It shows that 53% of mothers of boys with gender identity disorder
00:04:51.300
have borderline personality disorder or depression.
00:05:07.800
Are you surprised that 53% of boys who had gender identity disorder
00:05:20.240
All right, but that would still leave about half,
00:05:25.520
roughly half of the kids who were not influenced by the mother.
00:05:34.700
They're born that way, and then they're just expressing who they are?
00:05:50.980
that says left-wing activists also have mental illness.
00:05:59.400
A study out of the University of Bern in Switzerland
00:06:02.040
has revealed that those who partake in far-left activism
00:06:05.400
are more likely to exhibit narcissistic personality
00:06:16.840
half of the mothers of boys with gender identity disorder
00:06:23.840
Many of the left-wing activists have mental illness.
00:06:32.460
So there are over 2,000 families who are suing social media
00:07:02.760
where we can say that politics is rarely about politics?
00:07:07.120
It's almost entirely about mental illness, isn't it?
00:07:14.280
Because the stuff we talk about is the stuff that's interesting.
00:07:21.660
when some far-right or far-left group does something.
00:07:25.560
Because everybody in the middle is busy being boring.
00:07:45.600
But there's a core of real people who have real issues.
00:07:51.660
and hope they can get all the support they need.
00:07:53.800
And I hope they don't get discriminated and all that.
00:08:12.040
that there are real people, I think, as far as I know,
00:08:21.140
just because other people are a different situation.
00:08:27.380
But it's clearly the part that's real is really concealed
00:08:32.060
by the part that's mental illness at this point.
00:08:42.120
You already know that the population is a problem in China.
00:08:48.140
But here's some numbers that were kind of shocking I saw today.
00:08:51.860
Chinese births have gone from around 18 million a year in 2016.
00:08:56.500
And that's when their one-child policy was scrapped in China.
00:09:12.280
because they had a danger of destroying the country
00:09:44.860
About 3.7 million babies were born in the U.S. in 2022.
00:09:49.140
Now, that's not much unchanged from 2021, right?
00:10:19.140
Oh, somebody's saying that I'm the only channel
00:10:41.680
He's very clear that it's not an American priority.
00:10:54.640
And he would agree to not support NATO for Ukraine in return.
00:11:06.740
but these are things they would give Russia to stop the war,
00:11:24.300
And by the way, I think Trump would do something similar.
00:11:38.380
probably freezing them after Russia gets control
00:12:10.000
of capturing all of the Russian-speaking territories.
00:12:14.680
Do you think it would be the worst thing in the world
00:12:17.780
if Russia captured all of the Russia-speaking territories
00:12:55.980
so that Russia has something to negotiate with.
00:13:12.300
Because it doesn't look like there's going to be
00:13:39.500
I got the right answer before I asked the question.
00:13:51.260
what percentage of Democrats want Biden to run?
