00:01:04.080
well they're speaking of that's a great transition actually into our topic for today okay great which
00:01:09.060
is confident women versus confident men specifically on tiktok and how it manifests
00:01:14.060
you're someone who's extremely confident talks openly about it how do you feel when you see like
00:01:20.000
the difference between the two i guess well yeah it's um like i like it makes me very happy
00:01:25.860
to see confident women because i know that like oh in order to be a confident woman it's like i
00:01:30.000
understand like oh you had to do like all of this unlearning like whatever you went through you have
00:01:34.060
to like unlearn all this like stupid bullshit of like oh like women taking space and then like
00:01:38.840
feeling validation for male approval and like and like and of course like you know everyone has their
00:01:42.900
own trauma with like their family and and like weird bullshit or whatever so i see when i see a
00:01:47.360
confident woman i'm like oh like you're like me you put in the work to like overcome all that shit
00:01:52.200
and now you don't give a f*** about what anyone thinks about you and you're just like confident
00:01:55.900
and liberated and like yeah like for me it's like you know um people are like how are you so confident
00:02:01.420
or whatever but it's not i'm not like i wake up in the mirror every single day and i'm like you're
00:02:05.820
beautiful you're confident like it's not like an arrogance no no it's just like confidence in
00:02:11.940
yourself it doesn't i always say it doesn't pull from anybody else's shine my confidence exactly i
00:02:16.720
mean yeah and like i mean unless it's men i'm taking all of those i'm sucking it out like oh
00:02:21.500
have you seen snowye and the huntsman no but i've seen you charlie sure charlie's there on in that
00:02:27.560
movie okay literally she brings the most young and beautiful women she brings them to her and then
00:02:32.560
she literally rips open their face sucks the youth out and beauty oh my god i do that to only men i love
00:02:37.460
i have this like fantasy of like my clit like enlarging and turning into the three-headed blue
00:02:41.880
eyes white dragon from yugioh and like sucking out men's souls like every time a man or it's like a
00:02:46.080
like an angler fish yes exactly yeah yeah just dangles like i mean they're so easy right it's like
00:02:52.380
they're so easy no they're like literally so easy they're so ran through they're so ran through they
00:02:57.860
genuinely are so easy every time i see men like their version of being confident and this is i mean by
00:03:02.980
terrible men is like being confident on tiktok it's always taking from somebody else it's always
00:03:08.580
like i'm better than you or women which is weird yeah no you want to be prettier than women that's
00:03:13.880
weird like you want to stunt your beauty whatever you perceive to be hot and there's also so much
00:03:19.100
stuff that guys are just like like um like it's so funny they're like like men are so like oh yeah
00:03:24.600
like stupid girls they're just into like crystals and shit like that okay but now i'm gonna go
00:03:29.760
to a sports bar with the boys we're all gonna wear our matching jerseys and a beer and it's totally
00:03:35.040
not gay it's like not weird at all which is it's kind of weird it's a little weird i mean at the end
00:03:40.820
of the day we're all fangirls no literally and i think actually confident men are like are smart
00:03:45.460
enough to be betas like actually confident men like understand their place and they like yeah they're
00:03:51.500
like no i think that like the i think that betas um actually my co-writer for my show dana donnelly
00:03:56.560
she's like an amazing uh another female comedian great friend of mine she always says like the the
00:04:00.620
most alpha guys are betas like they're smart enough to know that alpha the alpha man is just not where
00:04:06.220
it's at yeah it's not a real thing yeah and then there's like um there's like sigma male you know
00:04:10.400
sigma male grind set where they're just you haven't heard of more oh my god yeah so i'll actually
00:04:15.740
so yeah the police there's more than two yeah there used to be two types of men and now there's three
00:04:20.580
whoa what's the third one okay so basically there's like there's like alpha beta like betas i'm like
00:04:25.680
yes this is good like you are a winner you are smart enough to know that you should be a beta that
00:04:31.060
that's what you should be doing like i love beta men so this the sigma male it's like the like
00:04:35.820
oh like i'm a lone wolf it's like the joker basically so they like look up to the joker they're
00:04:41.200
like oh terrifying i'm not like it's like i have all the same qualities of an alpha male but i'm like a
00:04:46.660
lone wolf they're like and they're always like like an underdog like they're like people don't
00:04:50.980
see me as an alpha but i am kind of thing exactly like they don't see me as enough so they see
00:04:55.320
themselves like the joker right where it's just like i'm just like a misunderstood like brooding
00:04:59.460
genius like i'm an evil like that's arguably worse to me no it's for sure it's for sure worse
00:05:06.420
the joker they know what happened in the joker right yeah he murdered a bunch of when they're like
00:05:12.360
that's me yeah i watch the movie and they're like that's so me yeah it's like oh ted bundy
00:05:17.520
yeah he's my man that's like that's so me yeah i know like literally it's just like okay okay cool
00:05:23.060
no but like i think like you know terrifying like these like what so when i see uh to get your
00:05:29.060
original question when i see a confident woman i'm just like wow this is so great because i know
00:05:33.000
that we like i know all the shit that you had to overcome to like get there and then i feel like
00:05:37.400
a solidarity with you versus when i see like an arrogant i mean like like a truly confident man
00:05:43.040
yeah wouldn't be like putting other people down or whatever that's like insecure arrogance yeah
00:05:47.120
like when i see like when men are like shitting on other people i'm like that's the most insecure
00:05:51.960
thing ever truly like i'm like oh you're like literally so insecure yeah um and so and it usually
00:05:57.680
comes out of places just like ignorance or like stupidity and it's just like and it's just like
00:06:01.660
stupid and loud yeah and i'm just like oh my god like why are you exposing yourself like this now
00:06:05.820
i think that all the time like i forgot there was that like one video i saw recently i think
00:06:10.020
like lucas pukas uh like oh i love him yeah he's no he's amazing um and it was like this guy was just
00:06:16.500
like why are women always so horny after sex i saw that i was like who's gonna tell him yeah who's
00:06:23.420
gonna break it's gonna tell him the delusion part is i talk about that a lot on here yeah mostly
00:06:29.560
because i talk about how they'll they'll create fantasies in which they get rejected to justify
00:06:34.880
getting rejected before they actually get rejected uh-huh and that's like a next level type of
00:06:40.900
delusion like the world you have to live in to be like we'll see i would never approach her but even
00:06:45.700
if i did she would say no to me because she probably only dates men with money you got all of that from
00:06:51.040
seeing me in the subway yeah that's like all of your shit in your head and it works like you saw me
00:06:56.180
in best buy and that's what you picked up oh my god can you read minds yeah no like literally like i
00:07:00.840
saw this quote once where it was just like oh like bullying successful women is a coping mechanism
00:07:04.920
for mediocre men no like literally like oh if you look at like any comments i know so like for me
00:07:10.020
like like a lot of times people be like wait how is that woman like smart and good looking and good
00:07:16.960
at this and and i'm just like hello like if you're good at one thing that means you're probably good
00:07:21.440
enough i mean smart enough to be good at like multiple yeah probably yeah and it's like this well
00:07:26.100
it's crazy because women are multifaceted because they're sentient humans they're not exactly like
00:07:31.700
objects yeah not just like testosterone driven like what do i put my head together now
00:07:36.660
i can't put my head together what do you mean yeah i literally i post i i just talked about this
00:07:42.960
with someone the other day but i was talking about how like sometimes when people meet me in real life
00:07:46.860
they're like oh girl you're so pretty which is kind of feels like a read a little bit so i'm like what
00:07:52.480
made you think i wasn't which is strange maybe it's because i don't give a shit what i look like
00:07:55.840
on tiktok well you look very pretty thank you in every aspect of like in every sense well that's
00:08:02.160
what people tell me they're like no i didn't mean it like that but i think they're just like whatever
00:08:05.500
right i think it's just because i'd be filming from the worst angles because i don't really give a
00:08:08.260
shit but that's why i make fun of men why do you look so good in all your videos okay so you're
00:08:13.360
lying no just kidding i'm gonna be a man right now you're lying literally because you look so pretty in
00:08:17.740
real life and you also look so pretty on camera what is she doing there's no woman can i like
00:08:23.060
talked about it where i put a picture like when i post glam pictures from my hair makeup artist like
00:08:27.300
he takes them of me and i post them men lose their minds they're like she got work done she
00:08:34.180
edited this picture it's mostly men which is strange sometimes women say it too but it's mostly
00:08:38.940
men oh no i get that too like makeup versus no makeup you know why you got so mad because you
00:08:44.540
hate me and then you saw a picture that made your peepee wiggle just a little and then you're like
00:08:49.720
oh man now she's good looking too and i hate you well the thing is i think their peepee were i i actually
00:08:56.900
think that they were attracted to you before like they're just mad that they're like a lot of it is
00:09:01.220
just like they're mad because you would literally never like literally no like literally it's like
00:09:06.600
um so because i get all these angry messages from guys i'm taking off my glasses they're not
00:09:10.280
prescription is just to show my diversity and look um mostly i want to show off my my eyeliner
00:09:14.660
eyeliner love that i did underneath my eyes by myself um you know i'm i feel like both of our
00:09:19.460
dms and comment sections are just like just these crazy men being like i hate you so much and it's
00:09:24.600
always like and like i've just never seen um like an attractive guy do that i'm like oh you're like
00:09:30.460
so sad like you just i just made a video about that the other day i said it's funny because i've never
00:09:35.060
seen a man who was good looking that hates me no i've never and i had looking person hate on people
00:09:40.400
in general yeah literally i know so many good looking dudes stitch my videos who really don't
00:09:44.800
care for me but they don't go out of their way to hate me they just don't follow me but they see
00:09:49.060
they stitch in they're like damn that's kind of true i had so many so many dudes yeah stitch my thing
00:09:54.400
which is so funny because they don't need to like they don't need they don't have this like weird
00:09:58.300
like incel anger inside of them that they need to like take out to overcompensate like like i think
00:10:03.280
like it's interesting like as content creators i think everybody who starts their journey of like
00:10:07.900
content creation always has like their emotional relationship with their comments or whatever
00:10:13.560
like everyone has their own way of like dealing with hate like i'm completely desensitized to it
00:10:16.960
at this point like i think um yeah i think you just get to a point where you're just like i've seen
00:10:20.560
everything like um because when i so i first started tiktok like right before the pandemic basically
00:10:25.040
and i remember like i think it was like i don't know maybe like the first maybe like sixes sixish
00:10:30.960
months of me doing content creation because it's like new i was like reading everything like reading
00:10:34.820
every dm and taking everything so personally and getting so like emotionally invested and angry at
00:10:38.720
like all this shit and then um at a certain point i was just like oh like everybody who leaves and then
00:10:43.580
you kind of realize like oh everyone who leaves a hate comment is just a miserable loser it's like
00:10:48.560
they're losing because it's like if you look at every single hate comment it's like okay you either have no
00:10:51.620
profile picture you have like a profile picture of something that's like not related to you at
00:10:55.020
all it's like an anime profile picture yeah or like a whatever those little monsters yeah or
00:10:59.780
you know it's like it's like i don't even like i'm just like dude if you don't have a profile picture
00:11:04.780
or like any content on your thing i'm like you are literally like so what i can't take your opinion
00:11:10.400
seriously yeah i literally said they look like the shit you scrape off the bottom of a ship like oh my
00:11:15.000
god like that's what your face probably looks like no worse someone drew you from memory no for sure
00:11:19.200
no i think it's like that shit and then it was like you know left in nuclear waste for like a certain
00:11:24.040
amount of time then maybe it was like eaten by a bottom feeder and then shot back out again so it
00:11:27.980
was like it's truly like like yeah molten like yeah yeah just like everything that's why i said
00:11:32.720
i'd hate me too if i were you yeah literally literally um and most of that comes from inside
00:11:37.640
that's what makes you not attractive no exactly your bad personality exactly because like attractiveness
00:11:43.240
is like it's like like it's all subjective yeah it is subjective it is no it is completely
00:11:48.080
subjective because like i truly believe that attractiveness is just like i don't know like energy i hate
00:11:52.740
saying like it's energy no but it's like oh like when you see a person it's like you're not focusing
00:11:57.080
on i actually say this where it's like um with like body image too because i think like everybody in the
00:12:02.400
world struggles or has struggled with body image at some point yeah and i think it's because you focus
00:12:06.880
you like you have this perfect image of like what you think a perfect body looks like and you're just
00:12:10.340
nitpicking like oh well my legs don't look like this and but it's like that's just not how
00:12:14.360
attractiveness works it's like no like when you meet a person you kind of like see their full thing
00:12:18.720
it's like yeah energy they're present it's not like it's not yeah it's not like that very
00:12:22.360
multifaceted yeah and they'll never know because they're gonna die alone so for sure no they're
00:12:26.800
gonna die alone jerking off to our videos okay for those of you who don't know here on the comment
00:12:31.640
section show what we like to do is we like to bring videos that i was tagged in bring them here and
00:12:36.580
then we just share all the giggles teehee laughs all of them make fun of it rip it to shreds that's
00:12:41.760
what we always do oh my god i'm so ready okay so this my hands are ready to rip
00:12:44.940
so this first one is a video uh that was made by a man of course so already we're we're setting the
00:12:53.720
foundation it's not good and so in the video it's basically that audio where they're like oh my god
00:12:59.540
no oh no and he says when she starts to realize she's not ugly and guys actually want her oh god
00:13:06.860
so gaslight of the century is what it is uh-huh and i think i think a lot of men especially mediocre men
00:13:14.520
like to make women believe that they could never do it better than them like their looks aren't good
00:13:19.200
enough to land them anyone better than them and that's nothing but a manipulation tactic it's also
00:13:23.080
this thing where it's like men are always just like like you know like men when men write women
00:13:27.400
they're like she was beautiful and she didn't know it she was beautiful and she was completely
00:13:30.900
yeah exactly she was actually hated herself inside and it's just like so it comes from this like
00:13:36.060
really like fucked up thing of like wait like why don't you want the girl you like to feel good
00:13:41.060
about herself oh because you don't care about her you care about what she's doing for you
00:13:44.740
and so she doesn't feel like happy and beautiful or whatever then like you get to from him have her
00:13:50.260
looks and well and it's like a power dynamic i totally it's a dichotomy where they want to be
00:13:54.920
the only source that makes you feel good about yourself and if they aren't that only source then
00:14:00.340
they feel threatened because they're like oh well she's probably going to get it from other dudes
00:14:03.520
or she already has it that's very possible too you can have confidence and not derive it from
00:14:09.980
somebody else but they don't know how to do that because they hate themselves and they also like i
00:14:14.200
feel like men also just don't understand that like not every woman cares about their validation
00:14:20.460
like men always talk like and like you know i feel like you know like whatever i'm a i'm for a
00:14:26.240
living i'm a degenerate oh i go to these things and it's like um like guys here's here's my favorite
00:14:32.760
thing at a party a guy will be like you know what you're actually really funny i actually really
00:14:38.700
like you like hey you i actually like you i know when they're just like you know what like and they
00:14:43.800
and they say it like it's this compliment like them saying they like you as a compliment you know
00:14:48.120
you're welcome by the way yeah and they're just sort of like no they're and they're like hey look i
00:14:51.940
like you and i'm just sort of like am i do you think i give a f*** like i'm so offended like i
00:14:56.860

00:15:01.160
one they're like i think you're funny yeah okay well so is your dad so yeah and it's and it's also
00:15:06.940

00:15:13.180
girl oh yeah or oh my god when i was growing up you're hot for an asian oh yeah we're like oh you're
00:15:18.920
i used to get that too for i'm someone so yeah yeah like there's no way why i always say why would
00:15:25.380
you say they're always just sort of like you know what like people like guys so many guys come up to me
00:15:29.020
and they think it's like a compliment they're just sort of like you know what like i don't think
00:15:32.880
any girls are funny but you you're pretty funny actually you make you actually pretty funny and
00:15:38.900
the thing is they always they're always like this they're always like actually actually actually
00:15:42.620
actually actually actually like that is my impression like for real for real literally
00:15:46.540
you're like gee thanks and i'm just like oh that's what the highest of compliments coming from
00:15:52.720
you next okay so these comments on here so the first one is from the guy who made the video
00:15:58.820
of course he said you know what i take it back this is not a joke now i mean it which i think is
00:16:03.940
because he was getting a lot of backlash for it from a lot of women which is also like it's just
00:16:07.700
like why are you like digging yourself deeper into this hole like you already made the video like you
00:16:11.580
could have saved yourself by being like actually i was kidding like and then the fact that he like
00:16:16.980
dug himself even deeper to be like well actually actually you know what i take it back that's that's
00:16:22.060
haters that's what that is the next one says thank you for casually exposing men's manipulation
00:16:27.120
tactics that's what i'm saying that's what i said it's a manipulation tactic to make you feel bad
00:16:31.580
about yourself so you only like receive worth from them yeah which could never be me no could
00:16:37.900
never never be me it's called like negging or something right yeah negging yeah oh my god so
00:16:42.040
like when i was like 14 or whatever i remember like there was this book that was like popular at
00:16:46.040
the incels at my high school it was the game by neil strauss and basically um so it's like a pickup
00:16:50.760

00:21:42.320
egot for insulting people oh my god i'd be goaded already the thing is like i think that you know we

00:21:51.340
oscars for roasting i'm just sort of like okay so like obviously you're like the i hope so i would
00:21:56.900
love that that would be amazing okay so for this next video that we have this is actually i'm just
00:22:02.040
going to describe it for you i'm just going to paint a picture for you it's a beautiful woman she's just
00:22:07.080
doing a transition video where basically she has no makeup and her hair's not done and then the next
00:22:11.440
clip obviously it is that's the whole point of tiktok yep if we're not charlie d'amelio dancing that's
00:22:16.880
what we're doing yep transitions right that's the whole point and obviously all the
00:22:21.180
comments from men were poo poo garbage terrible yeah all the comments like actual diarrhea feces
00:22:27.880
yeah and then all the comments from women were all positive so like for these comments from men they
00:22:33.260
said one said uh makeup can change a life this has to be illegal only makeup damn son what is this
00:22:42.780
and to that i always say show me a picture of your face let me see that mug i want to see what
00:22:48.400
you're rocking with before we start trading insults i would like to see what you're working
00:22:52.960
with they're mad that they're attracted to us yeah truly because they like they're just like i'm mad
00:22:56.800
because i'm attracted to this person but she's more successful than me and she would attract me so
00:22:59.600
i can't take it therefore i'm gonna spend the limited time and energy i have in this one life i
00:23:04.540
have on earth even though i could technically die any day i'm gonna use this limited time of my
00:23:08.420
conscious effort to sit there and type of cum and i'm just sort of like that is some gas station
00:23:13.240
energy there's a gas station around in la called terribles they they live there they don't work there
00:23:18.040
they live there yeah they live at the terribles gas station this is not a promo for them terribles is
00:23:22.620
not this is not sponsored yeah um i mean i don't know i've never been in that gas station because
00:23:27.540
i mean i mean maybe i should it's a it's very self-aware so yeah you know maybe it's maybe but they
00:23:32.400
lack that so would they be at terribles they're like what is self like no like like i remember
00:23:38.160
this oh my god like this one time i was at like this guy once tried to mansplain to me the concept
00:23:43.260
of introspection he was just like he was like yeah like i started doing this thing where it was like
00:23:47.200
you know how you just like you know how you just like do things but then sometimes you can ask
00:23:51.240
yourself why you do them and then maybe and i was just like are you talking about so self-awareness
00:23:56.360
self-awareness i was just like oh like like welcome to like yeah in life i was like oh i
00:24:03.860
remember having that thought at like nine can you imagine like being in your mid-20s and just
00:24:09.200
realizing that you can think about how your words may affect others no like it's just it's yeah you're
00:24:14.800
like oh my god did you know that i could impact others with the things i say and no like yeah that's
00:24:19.860
wild i could hurt them and or like help them yeah they just they're just still like there's just a
00:24:26.020
a layer of like intel like you know you you tell pretty quickly people are like with it or not
00:24:31.380
yeah and i just you know um most of them aren't no exactly yeah i see like a sometimes i'll see
00:24:36.980
like a guy and i'm like wow like he's really funny and then i check his bio and he's like you know
00:24:41.000
like bi or like gay or something and i'm just like yeah because like no straight guy could ever be that
00:24:44.340
funny like yeah i could ever be as funny that's a good point that's a really good point they have a
00:24:49.140
very one-sided view of things yeah or it's like i think you can always kind of tell like any
00:24:53.620
misogynist they're never funny any bigot you're never funny no it's like your humor relies on
00:24:59.340
punching down exactly and being offensive that's the only you're incapable of being funny without
00:25:04.200
doing something like that yeah exactly which i find leads to a lack of intelligence always no
00:25:09.820
totally it's just sort of like oh like you literally can't be generative like you have to
00:25:13.880
like take something and i'm just and it's like from others to be funny yeah none at all like literally
00:25:19.660
no and it's like not novel at all it's just like oh you're just regurgit it's like you're
00:25:24.060
it's the same jokes over and over again yeah it's like and i'm just sort of like oh like i'm sorry i
00:25:29.280
didn't realize you were a single cell organism pre-cum c-section formula well and tomo erectus
00:25:35.320
honestly literally back like to the makeup point i i've said this before men can't tell the difference
00:25:41.020
no like i if i looked like this and i truly like like convinced like i sat down with someone i'm like
00:25:47.020
this is what i woke up looking like like a dude they would be like yeah that makes sense
00:25:51.400
and i have i sat in a chair for two hours this morning to look like this to look normal
00:25:56.160
no like they don't know like whatever that is deemed oh well it's like this thing where like
00:26:00.980
i remember like so when i would do transition videos of like you know like no makeup to makeup
00:26:04.320
people like you know i would get like all those comments like i mean i don't care because i was like
00:26:07.240
engagement um but like um they'll never put that puzzle together either it's all this thing where
00:26:11.960
people were just sort of like all these guys on one of my transitions videos were like wait no one
00:26:16.160
told me she was trans she's trans she has to be trans well to see like that's that's supposed to
00:26:21.060
be offensive yeah because they're a bigot yeah and i've gotten that too but that's because i'm brown
00:26:26.580
and i'm mean so they're they know they they like think it's an insult i'm just sort of like well okay so
00:26:32.320
these next comments from women uh this says your face is flawless with or without makeup your futures
00:26:38.260
are so beautiful okay did not just go from pretty to pretty i'm not trying to simply be nice but
00:26:43.380
you're literally stunning and this last one says oh my god your face and skin so i i've talked about
00:26:49.000
this before but like when men are like oh women post for male validation like if they post whether
00:26:54.320
you're feeling yourself or you're like at the movies men are like oh they're posting this so men will pay
00:26:59.720
attention to them i always say that's not true because women take what other women say about them
00:27:06.500
way more seriously than they do about men it's easy to get men's attention no it's easy no male
00:27:12.400
validation is easy and everywhere and is worthless i wish i said that like i forgot i saw i i saw
00:27:20.380
someone else say it was just like male validation is in abundance and of low value but it was like
00:27:26.100
this thing where i mean i think they did a study like i remember i was learning about it in like high
00:27:29.400
school or college and they did a study of like of like oh like who do women dress for when women are
00:27:34.900
getting dressed up it's like no women dress up to impress other women yeah truly like not well
00:27:39.380
kind of like why men put down women is to impress other men yeah it's not for women oh my god yeah
00:27:45.560
and it's like all of them just like being like dumb together like i like okay so me and um my one of my
00:27:52.580
really good friends dana donnelly we always talk about this we always say like if i see just like a
00:27:56.300
group of like you know straight dudes like all hanging out like whatever they're talking about is wrong
00:28:01.240
i just like if there's a group of like three or more dudes just standing around talking i'm just
00:28:06.340
like whatever you're saying is wrong you know what i do nothing that you could be talking about that's
00:28:10.100
right that's so funny yeah you bring that up because every time i see those groups of dudes like
00:28:14.580
it's like boys night out type type vibes yeah like i literally when i'm with my boyfriend especially i
00:28:21.440
always like say captions that i think they would put on their instagram like i literally i literally put
00:28:26.400
like like up to no good and like double emojis or it's like boys night on a night on the town
00:28:32.800
yeah like what's like the lamest thing they would put on instagram i literally think of instagram
00:28:37.140
captions yeah this is probably what they're putting on their snapchat last night was a movie oh my god
00:28:41.840
no or they're probably it's like i i saw or literally they'll just like or it's like these dudes that do
00:28:46.860
like fake gary v content like fake inspirational oh yeah they post a photo of themselves like this and
00:28:52.340
they're just sort of like yeah you just got to keep up the grind yeah they're like or they're like
00:28:55.800
haters haters will be there all the time that you know don't never let them get to they write this
00:29:01.260
like and i'm like no one's hating on you i'm like you have no fans i literally am like no it's like
00:29:07.040
these guys it's like these guys who are like yeah people are always trying to say i'm like no one
00:29:10.940
like your teacher just told you to put a shirt back on like no one is trying to like you work at la
00:29:14.760
fitness it's really never that yeah no it's just like never that serious yeah i'm just like chill bro
00:29:19.340
okay it's all right you work at circle k you know what life is truly never that serious
00:29:24.480
like you can still well people like us who do content for a living have actual like people who
00:29:31.520
hate us i don't like to call them haters because that implies like some sort of jealousy which i'm
00:29:36.240
sure we have too but it's just people that hate me well just people that hate me genuinely i have a
00:29:42.220
lot of those like i don't know if i would say i mean jealousy could be a factor i think a big part
00:29:47.800
of it is bigotry more than anything true um i almost think yeah yeah yeah no because like um
00:29:53.120
because in my mind i'm just like i i know i feel like a lot of haters are are just jealous and then
00:29:57.320
a lot of haters are just like sad and miserable yeah i agree they're just like one in the same
00:30:01.380
honestly venn diagrams the circle no no exactly it truly is exactly that's just that they're all the
00:30:06.440
same okay so now we're gonna play a game i love it and this is something that's very on brand for you
00:30:14.640
okay so this is do you have uh big dick energy or big clit energy whatever you prefer dealer dealer's
00:30:21.600
choice oh my god big clit energy yeah okay so i'm gonna ask you questions you're gonna give me your
00:30:27.300
honest answer and then we'll decide as an audience whether or not you have big clit energy which i'm
00:30:31.840
sure you do yeah no i'm totally not wearing a clitoral hoodie i totally didn't just make a song
00:30:36.500
called big clit energy there you go go okay so the first one says you turn up at a party but
00:30:41.520

00:31:03.320
just like stimulation in general like i'm a very like yeah put me in like the craziest shit and like

00:31:14.540
guys yeah yeah it's at coachella and i was like guys can you guess what this is and it was a great
00:31:18.700
conversation starter there you go look at that icebreaker at the game yeah yeah i i would say
00:31:22.600
for sure that's definitely big clit energy for sure okay so this next one says uh new job first day
00:31:29.660
and your boss asks you a question you think you have you have the answer to do you stay silent go for
00:31:35.900
it impress the team and your boss or answer the question but phrase it as a question or sit tight
00:31:41.220
even if you think it's right like don't say anything oh i would just confidently voice my
00:31:44.860
opinion i would just be like this is my answer yeah i'm wrong like that's okay because then i'm wrong
00:31:50.400
like if i'm wrong then i will learn and then it's fine and if you're wrong maybe you gaslight him
00:31:55.320
the end of the day you and i are girl bosses yeah exactly bosses stay gaslighting and gatekeeping
00:32:00.960
exactly that's all we do every day all day i'm a gemini that's another g what's your big three
00:32:06.480
you're a gemini um yeah so gemini sun um my rising is a libra i don't know if i super identify with it
00:32:14.060
but i know that like but someone once was like oh everyone with a rising libra sign is pretty and i
00:32:18.060
was like okay i'll take it i'll take it i'll take it you're okay then yes i do yeah because like um
00:32:21.420
because their whole i think with libras it's like oh they're indecisive i'm not indecisive i'm very
00:32:25.500
like i want tacos now um and then my cancer is a moon which i do oh sorry my moon is a cancer
00:32:32.280
which i do identify with too yeah yeah because like you know when i'm like by myself i'm like
00:32:36.040
in my feels like thinking about shit like listening to like steve lacy and like being like you're you
00:32:40.920
being a gemini makes a lot of sense yeah wait what is your like what is your son i'm a virgo
00:32:45.920
virgo sun cancer moons sagittarius rising really yeah wow yeah we're two opposites low-key
00:32:52.480
yeah and i was just like how we go through life no no like i'm so surprised like i guess i don't
00:32:57.560
know i really like gemini's they get a bad rep but i really like gemini's oh i like them too
00:33:01.980
obviously because i'm i'm very biased i'm just like yeah we're like the fun ones i'm like yeah
00:33:07.080
we're fun and toxic yeah we stay gaslighting i oh i always say well there you go gemini's are very
00:33:11.800
self-aware so they're they're very aware of the things that they do yeah like my favorite thing is
00:33:16.340
like i think manifesting is gaslighting the universe like i've i've been saying love manifesting is just
00:33:21.600
gaslighting the universe because you're just sort of like law of attraction and like i'm just like
00:33:25.760
i'm gonna get this day and because universe is like no i'm like actually universe you're stupid
00:33:29.900
actually like you're actually i love that honestly actually you're in your flop era i say i stay doing
00:33:35.360
that off okay this last one says you're talking with someone at a party and you like them what's
00:33:41.640
your next move i would probably just tell them i like them well i mean typically like i like the the
00:33:47.620

someone said uh i think only men have red flags yes women it's just quirks yes it's just something
00:34:48.860
fun yeah something fun about their personality i said that's what i'm talking about that's the kind
00:34:52.960
of world i'm living in i am all on board like i just i'm like well i just think that like all men
00:34:58.840
have like a like a brain disability or something because they just don't get it's like a cognitive
00:35:04.520
dissonance yeah it just it just feels like there's something missing missing you know i'm just
00:35:09.040
sort of like that's why i said it's cognitive dissonance more than anything they're just so
00:35:12.440
far removed from other people's perspective i think a lot of times and men are sitting at the
00:35:16.920
top of the world all the time yeah and they also just like don't live in reality you know what i
00:35:20.100
mean it's kind of what you were saying earlier how it's like men think that like they live in this
00:35:24.220
world where women are constantly doing things for men's attention so then when they're like wait but
00:35:28.760
why is she's a girl doing that like i said i didn't like that doesn't she know that men don't like
00:35:33.880
when she does that like it's like people will like the hard concept oh my god no people will

00:36:10.220
like i think the people who give the most advice are usually the people who don't know what they're
00:36:14.200
talking about like people who don't know what they're talking about like they give unsolicited
00:36:17.520

00:38:42.000
i will never forget i got this one dm like that was so audacious and like i will never forget it so
00:38:47.360
literally it was like this guy who was like it was when i was first blowing up and so i was like
00:38:50.880
actually seeing his dms and he was like always sliding in and then i wasn't replying um or
00:38:55.180
accepting his message and he literally sends me a photo of himself like shirtless and in the message
00:38:59.420
he goes like he goes like hey look at this photo for 10 seconds look at this photo for 10 seconds
00:39:05.040
okay like and he was like because he thought in his brain that if i looked at a photo of him shirtless
00:39:10.820
for 10 seconds that i would reply to him he was like come on man like i'm hot you're hot
00:39:15.100
all he said look at this photo for 10 seconds after a bunch of different like slides and stuff
00:39:18.960
like i feel like witchcraft to me yeah he was like look at this photo for 10 seconds and it was just
00:39:23.760
i almost wanted to reply and be like dude you're not as hot as you think they are it's like this
00:39:27.760
thing where like where i think okay so men always think that they're like way better looking than they
00:39:31.640
are and women always think that they're way uglier than they are because like how society like treats
00:39:35.780
us that's patriarchy yeah i know because it's like you know it's sad you see like all these like
00:39:39.340
you know beautiful women being like well i'd and i'm just like no you look amazing yeah like you're
00:39:43.900
he looks like shit but you look great yeah no seriously i'll stay telling men that even if
00:39:49.120
they look great over 10 seconds as if i was like oh yeah i'm so you know what's funny not to play
00:39:53.800
devil's advocate it worked yeah he got in there didn't he got in there and i'm talking about it
00:39:59.980
now so you know what you're right and the thing is like i'm okay i'm okay with being wrong because
00:40:04.760
