Until I, until I love you, I love you, I love you
00:00:27.000
who do you who do you feel you just want to just shout out like it's like if you had to reflect on
00:00:34.360
your time right now even just to just to be present in the moment to give to give like
00:00:40.580
recognition and flowers and being kind and nice to people like if you were just like yo i'm happy
00:00:45.100
to be here right now with there are four ways that i protect myself from insanity from this
00:00:53.240
crazy world that we call the industry. It's no secret that this game is ruthless. When you're
00:01:04.880
on top of the world, everybody's your best friend. When you're at the bottom, they may as well be
00:01:09.780
your enemies. Every friendship in this game is conditional on the fact that you provide something
00:01:14.480
to them, which is not a friendship at all. They will ghost you if you can't earn them a dollar
00:01:18.840
right now. And remember, in this game, there's so much desperation, people will sell out their
00:01:23.220
family for a sponsorship. In this industry, jealousy breeds faster than bunnies. So if you
00:01:28.340
don't remember who's real, you're going to be forgotten too. So how do you maintain sanity
00:01:32.780
in a psycho business? Step one is you need to show gratitude to your creator.
00:01:48.840
I remain unfazed trust worse has been done man fuck evaluation show me personal
00:02:09.220
I got the first edition part up roadside the only sign of struggling is coming from those guys
00:02:21.380
Yeah, I'm doing a video about how I'm able to sneak on boats
00:02:32.520
Yeah, but I could just get over this fence right here.
00:02:45.900
Contrary to what they say, not all attention is good attention.
00:02:48.840
you don't want to crash out. If you don't keep yourself humble, you will. The way I stay grounded
00:02:53.420
is literally putting my head to it at least once a week and at the bare minimum of five times a day.
00:02:58.660
Fame can rewire even the strongest of heads so you have to remember that none of us are ever
00:03:03.400
going to be greater than God. Keeping God in your life is a reminder to remember what's important
00:03:07.720
because this isn't. Things like charity, things like spending time with your family, they try and
00:03:12.320
fall. It doesn't matter how much you help someone in this game, they will still stake you if it's
00:03:16.800
beneficial for them right now. Look what happened to Drake just this year. He gave the entire
00:03:21.580
industry careers and they turned on him because it was trendy. I don't see how it's possible to
00:03:26.460
withstand that betrayal without connecting to God. Another person in my life that has a lot
00:03:30.980
of controversy. I have controversy. Everyone does at some point. But Sneeko, he's a really good guy
00:03:36.660
and he's doing really, really big things right now. And I'm very proud to have him as somebody
00:03:40.940
that I can kind of like talk to because real people like that, real people that just will
00:03:44.920
say it how it is and they're not afraid of any type of like publicity or not afraid is like
00:03:48.720
those to me are like people that are real people i have to be honest i feel like you hide behind
00:03:53.440
shit it's not the fake shit is just bullshit and you see right through it so those two especially
00:03:58.160
yeah those those guys are some real people yeah stand clear of the closing doors please
00:04:04.720
maybe in this song you shouldn't start by saying if drake shooters doing tiktoks nigga really
00:04:11.700
shooting your gang that's peace brother y'all ain't getting shit shot nigga can't listen to
00:04:15.320
the stick talking falsetto saving for a hip hop nigga y'all don't even be a home dog you a souvenir
00:04:19.820
out the gift shop nigga still mad about it wow thanks for your advice now that you told me we
00:04:27.520
don't ever need to speak ever again step two is to remain inspired at all times people in the
00:04:33.480
masculinity red pill world will always tell you to kill the boy as soon as possible so you can
00:04:38.540
grow into a man and shed the shell of the caterpillar and bloom into a butterfly or
00:04:43.200
whatever but the only way to remain yourself is to remember why you started in the first place
00:04:47.380
that was the little boy that had a dream if you don't keep feeding his inspiration it's gonna go
00:04:52.280
away invest your time into speaking to different people even if it doesn't benefit you financially
00:04:57.440
immediately travel the world and see things you've never seen before look at art even if you don't
00:05:02.560
That is the nicest pile of trash I've ever seen.
00:05:14.560
No, you're not lacking here, you're working right now.
00:05:16.560
Nah, I was working, I was doing like inventory and stuff like that.
00:05:19.560
Yeah, yeah, I was doing some council inside this building right here.
00:05:25.560
I had the spreadsheet, I was doing, I had to log out real quick, you know?
00:05:44.400
Even in Paris, you don't hear this many Parisians.
00:05:53.860
I swear to God, this place has to be 50% Parisians.
00:06:58.560
it's a perfect example of the design every time i come here carries i like the look of the museum
00:07:04.240
more than anything in here and i have no idea what the solution to this immigration problem is
00:07:08.300
because they'll go online and be like we're gonna defeat the zionist regime we're gonna defeat the
00:07:14.560
zionist regime it's like dude you don't even have your face in your own profile picture how are you
00:07:19.860
gonna topple a government if you don't fight back you're a zionist shill dude you're afraid of your
00:07:26.620
own face. You don't even like what you look like. The child that got into this game didn't do it to
00:07:32.880
be worshipped like an idol. They did it because they wanted to create. And it's impossible to
00:07:37.020
create if your brain isn't fed. Take new information in, always. Step three is to stay
00:07:43.200
alert because even somebody spreading a message of love and peace like John Lennon got gunned down
00:07:48.280
in front of his house. As soon as you get it, you got something that everybody wants. From the
00:07:53.580
industry to the fans to the absolute psychos you can never trust a soul john lennon was killed by
00:08:00.380
a guy that saw a taxi driver and saw jody foster a 13 year old playing a prostitute and wanted to
00:08:05.800
send her a message to show her look how important i am i killed john lennon even if it was the cia
00:08:11.340
everyone is still watching you the people the feds the business owners the ceos everyone wants
00:08:50.000
Know that John and George are here with us in life.
00:08:54.000
This place kind of became a tribute to John Lennon
00:08:56.000
because he has a song, Strawberry Fields came here.
00:09:00.000
This area of Central Park is called Strawberry Fields.
00:09:02.000
Let me take you down because I'm going to this part of Central Park.
00:09:34.240
If you think about it, he's one of the best examples, John Lennon, of beating cancellation.
00:09:39.140
He got canceled back in the 60s for saying that Beatles were bigger than Jesus, made it back.
00:09:43.860
Apparently, he beat his first wife quite a bit.
00:09:46.000
and abandoned his first son that's why Paul McCarty wrote hey Jude I know your
00:09:51.360
dad doesn't talk to you his music was so good and his message is so strong people
00:09:55.040
listen regardless hey what's going on man anybody can bounce back is this the
00:10:00.120
building John Lennon lived in do you know where he was shot was it over here
00:10:05.560
it was right here it's nice building oh you're not gonna shoot me are you no
00:10:12.540
Aiden Ross is a rare outlier. He paved the way and pioneered streaming for everybody. They all
00:10:19.080
benefited from what he did. He put on his friends and they all switched on him because he said
00:10:24.600
something like, there are two genders. An objective fact that the whole world knows to be true for
00:10:29.680
all of eternity. Turn him into a brand risk canceled man so everyone else could take the
00:10:34.800
road that he paved. This industry is so sick that God forbid if he died, most of these streamers
00:10:40.660
would hang oh finally oh no they don't want what's best for you they want what you have because if
00:10:48.320
you were to die or go to jail your friends are not thinking how could I call you how could I
00:10:53.520
bail you out they're thinking what's the best crafted tweet I could write to get the most
00:10:56.940
impressions to show that I was friends with him John Lennon was right imagine the world with love
00:11:01.500
and peace and kumbaya shaking hands sounds great but people are hungry and really this game doesn't
00:11:07.440
attract people who are hungry to feed their family they're hungry for worship they're hungry to be an
00:11:12.960
idol they want to be remembered they want fame and of all the nonsensical materialistic yabba bs that
00:11:20.000
we put ourselves up with fame has got to be number one it's fleeting it's temporary it doesn't mean
00:11:25.680
anything the more fame you get the more active reps you need to do to make sure you stay a person
00:12:01.920
Being famous means a double life where you try to maintain balance between both the best you can
00:12:09.000
without tipping over. In fact, being famous means it destroys the entire reason you started this in
00:12:14.600
the first place. If you started to be different, to create something new, to start an empire, to
00:12:20.120
make a change, pursuing fame properly turns you into the most copy and paste AI character
00:12:26.060
imaginable. Every word you utter is processed through the HR machine. Every relationship
00:12:31.120
you have is a networking opportunity i think the best way to be famous is to try your best not to
00:12:36.860
be at all yeah i'm filipino i can handle it are you guys korean no chinese you're chinese why is
00:12:43.660
this spot so empty it's not a good location really sam marx we have we have like the best
00:12:48.820
well i'll be the judge of it because i'm gonna post this video tonight uh no i i trust you i
00:12:53.420
trust your judgment just not too spicy i know i'm filipino but not too spicy i like this music man
00:12:58.440
i'm disappointed in myself that i asked if they were korean and not chinese look at the
00:13:01.960
red lamps everywhere of course it's chinese i'm a fake asian
00:13:08.920
well the employees only got five minutes left so i got to make sure that this is good footage
00:13:13.000
five minutes left on this camera should be a good ending here what's this it's a hot pot
00:13:16.840
smells like how long does it take to cook it takes about like three minutes of oil and then
00:13:22.040
the food is going to come like for the beef it takes like 20 seconds are these a good kind of
00:13:26.040
mushrooms no no these are wrong so this you want to cook for a minute this a minute and that one's
00:13:30.200
a minute no not yet though no i'm just asking are these like are these a good kind of mushrooms
00:13:33.800
of course yeah he didn't get what i was trying to put down but you got it right
00:13:44.520
just one table's clean don't worry about it yeah you're gonna boil it anyway
00:13:48.680
that's all going in the review you got it the fourth and final step is to enjoy yourself because
00:13:55.000
aside from all this paranoia and insanity that you may hear from this you need to enjoy the
00:14:00.200
fruits of your labor if you don't spend time to enjoy yourself then what are you working so hard
00:14:04.280
for anyway i just want to boil it for like a minute here we put one in each yeah i feel one
00:14:08.600
in each and the mushroom is pretty good you can actually drink a little right just drink i'm such
00:14:13.320
a fraud i actually eat hot pot all the time i'm just like pretending to be a white tourist so the
00:14:17.240
video is more how do i how do i do that do you like hold it here or like i eat this pretty
00:14:22.680
Let's do a taste test of the spot belt, all right?
00:14:39.920
except I was a bad Asian, I was a film student.
00:14:43.200
I mean, but you're, you know, you made it now, so.
00:14:54.800
I think that was my least favorite part of the red pill world
00:14:57.340
was this idea that multiculturalism and mixed race,
00:15:02.480
Some of the stuff I love the most about New York
00:15:03.860
is how many different countries and cultures you can interact with
00:15:09.320
Obviously, illegal immigration is bad, and there's too much of it,
00:15:11.920
and people are taking advantage of opportunities,
00:15:13.940
but when you get the synergy and the mix of so many different,
00:15:19.780
That's a great city. We're gonna live in a bland suburbs with white picket fences and just to see him. Hey, honey
00:15:25.120
I'm mowing the house of kids. Fuck that. So I'm starting to cry. I'm getting a little snot from the mild
00:15:30.900
I mean, I'm handling it. I finished it, but you're saying there's super spicy and
00:15:44.860
Give me the super spicy bring it out another dish bring it out
