Struggle with Glasses & Humorous Tone
00:00:08
Speaker
everyone, welcome back to another episode of Gather Them Podcast. I'm your host Jerome, and we're back. I feel like I'm going to wear my glasses like this in order to see and to record because I don't have contacts right now.
00:00:20
Speaker
It's been a bit of a struggle um as of late. I love how did that as if I had hair and I don't have hair. um But no, things have been kind of a lot lately.
Embracing Health Challenges & Personal Growth
00:00:32
Speaker
Like if you've listened to my trauma cake episode, then i think You probably know things are not great. So right now I'm learning how to do dialysis on myself because I am going back on dialysis.
00:00:50
Speaker
And that is not fun. um But i it is something that I am learning. how to deal with and how to just navigate as a person that has done it before and center versus like someone that has done, you know, um I've done like in center, I've never done PD, that's like the catheter one.
00:01:17
Speaker
um But I will say it is something right now that I am learning how to manage myself because i just see how, again, the way the world is going and I realize I can't be afraid of like my own body. Like, you know what i mean? That doesn't, that can't make sense
Superhero Perspective & Valuing Time
00:01:41
Speaker
to me. And so I have this like thought of like, let me just re-envision this as me being, like I can be like,
00:01:52
Speaker
a superhero and I could be cyborg and I could see my life as this or at this as this thing that keeps me alive so that I can keep living each day and you know coming back to again spend time with friends and family so I think that It's just par for the course. I think it's caused me to realize a lot of things about myself. That's something I wanted to maybe talk about in this episode too. And there's things that I'm anticipating for 2026 because
00:02:25
Speaker
Honestly, there's a lot of shit going on right now. And the truth is, I really don't have the time to navigate from spaces of fear. One thing that I don't take for granted, but I think I reflected on is that I'm not actually even supposed to be here. Like when my friends and family talk about how I went through everything I went through when I first ended up on dialysis and got really sick.
00:02:51
Speaker
I'm like, it sounds like I was like going to be dead. So to make it to 33 and be an Aquarius, 34 next month, like, you know, to make it to that, like, I feel grateful. And like, I've done a lot of great things in my life.
00:03:09
Speaker
I haven't done anything. I haven't necessarily wanted to. I've done a lot of things i've I've not wanted to do, but like I haven't really, i wouldn't say i I would go back and change those things.
00:03:22
Speaker
um And again, i don't know where things are going or like not going down. I just feel sometimes it can be like way to the top often feels like, I'm not going down.
00:03:37
Speaker
um i just feel like sometimes it can be like the whales are the top um often feels like I don't know. It's not even a way to the top. Because I'm like, I'm not even looking for the, don't even know what the top is anymore.
00:03:54
Speaker
Like I realized a couple people vote like asked me questions about like, where do I see myself in five years? And like, what am I doing next? And I'm like, honestly, I don't even know any anymore.
From Changing the World to Individual Impact
00:04:05
Speaker
I think I've done a lot of things that people wanted me to maybe do, but I wouldn't say that I want to be this well-known person with all this influence and that is this world changer in the same way that I wanted to be before.
00:04:31
Speaker
If I'm being really honest, like if I'm being really honest, I don't really want to save the world as much as I used to. I think I want to save individual people more. And I think that's always been my mission is the idea that I've wanted to reach people across the top, which is why I've always tried to work in this way of, well, let me get a job that's like a little more a little less direct practice and a little bit more macro because then maybe it'll allow me access to the system.
00:05:07
Speaker
And it's interesting because as I've gone into the system, I've learned that there's just no fixing
Systemic Challenges & Economic Concerns
00:05:13
Speaker
it. There's no repairing it. And that there's a lot of um people, I think, that are Just go say using, you know, using the system to continue to put people at a disadvantage. Because the reality is that like things haven't really shifted much when it comes to affordability and who meets the requirements for being poor and who requires...
00:05:44
Speaker
the requirements for being like middle class because the middle class is almost non-existent anymore especially when these programs a lot of times will stay at the I don't know like the but like low $30,000 entry range um So I've discovered
Role as a Facilitator in Therapy
00:06:09
Speaker
things about myself.
00:06:10
Speaker
Some of it is that behavior complex that I've always felt like I needed to save people. I don't really feel that as much now. Like I feel like even in when I, and I'll like just say in my sessions, how I show up in my sessions um with like my like individuals or my people was that like, I will literally say like that in the beginning that like, I'm just the observer. I'm like someone that's here. I'm someone to help you sort out your feelings, your thoughts, and your this, your that, but you're the one with the experience. You're coming to me because you're the one with the insight. You know you better than I know you.
00:06:54
Speaker
um And so I had to really take that to heart if myself and stop going to my own sessions and being like, okay, like fix it, I'll help, i you know, whatever, because you actually have to show up like and do the work so anyway this episode we don't talk about 20 20 26 excuse me y'all we don't talk about 2026 um off the dome things that i'm not looking forward to i'm going to just start and say i'm not looking forward to 2000 no is it the 200 not 2000 oh my god 250th
00:07:36
Speaker
torture and fiftieth um anniversary
Concerns about Future Events in Philly
00:07:41
Speaker
of the U.S. only because I know it's going to be a big inconvenience for folks especially getting around Philly a lot of events are supposed to be in Philly I don't know where everything's supposed to be but I do know that there's going to be an event near my place of residence and I am going to be shaken to my core. I am like going to not want to be here.
00:08:10
Speaker
oh Thank God I have a passport because I am trying to get the ASAP, like for real. I'm also not looking forward because ICE is also showing up now in Philly. There's been TikToks going around that ICE has been in Delaware County.
00:08:30
Speaker
There was a lady that was yelling outside of her window, calling this man a fake police officer. So I'm like, it's already starting to happen that like,
00:08:42
Speaker
the stage is starting to be set where people are just going to be mysteriously disappearing and, um you know, a lot more things are going to become intense, I think. It's going to be very interesting because I find... found another TikTok of a video where there was a woman or a person that said that since the Eagles lost...
00:09:10
Speaker
um ice coming is like right on time which is also i'm the cons the aquarius is like conspiracy theorist in me my brain like fucking tickling like when i think about this shit but like is that why the eagles lost early because they needed to get ice here like asap like i don't know like sometimes i just wonder about stuff like that Like, because it almost feels like to beat us while we're down.
00:09:43
Speaker
And I know that's like not very like, scientifical or whatever, and that's very woo woo, but it's a conspiracy theory, like, you know, X-Files, like, fuck it. Like, I love the X-Files.
00:09:54
Speaker
I need to actually, they i think they're going to bring that back too. Excited. um Not sure when that's coming up. Buffy's Delayed, I did find that out. But not looking forward to the anniversary. It's gonna be hell, gonna be hell.
00:10:13
Speaker
um I'm also not looking forward to the FIFA World Cup only because again, that's another inconvenience. um I
Infrastructure Impact & Anxiety
00:10:21
Speaker
don't know how that's going to work in Philly.
00:10:24
Speaker
It's very interesting um that all of this is happening right now at a time where my life is being inconvenienced. I wouldn't say inconvenienced.
00:10:39
Speaker
Uprooted maybe? by the fact that my health is back in this situation. Because I think this place that they're building is near where I work because I work a few blocks away from where they're going to take this empty building and and destroy that.
00:11:00
Speaker
But because of what I'm going through right now, there's going to be certain ah things that happen where I won't have to deal with that. Dang
00:11:11
Speaker
think of. Yes. We will see. We will see how that works. What else? That's going inconvenience. Travel, SEPTA has been a mess still.
00:11:21
Speaker
I don't know how that's going to work out. i don't know how SEPTA is going to work. I don't know how. um Because that's still 15 minutes for the L. I don't know.
00:11:32
Speaker
Now, the National Guard, from what I understand, is also going to be another interesting thing. Because from my understanding, from what I've heard, from more than one person. I have not looked into this, so I cannot verify it.
00:11:45
Speaker
Mayor wants... Is it Homeland Security? Hold on, Siri. Hey Siri, ask ChadGBT, who does the ah Philadelphia mayor want to come to Philadelphia? is that Here's a long answer from ChatGPT.
00:12:05
Speaker
Check important info for mistakes. As now, there is no public information indicating Philadelphia Mayor Cheryl Parker has made a specific request for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement ice agents to come to Philadelphia.
00:12:20
Speaker
However, recent events have heightened tensions between local officials and ICE. In January 2026, Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal criticized ICE agents following the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Goode by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, stating, you don't want this smoke, and calling them fake and wannabe law enforcement.
00:12:42
Speaker
Additionally, District Attorney Larry Krasner has warned that ICE agents who break the law in Philadelphia could face a arrest. These statements reflect local officials' concerns about ICE's actions in this.
00:12:54
Speaker
But there is no indication that the mayor has specifically invited ICE to Philadelphia. The National Guard. That's who it is. Siri, ask ChatGBT.
00:13:05
Speaker
Is it the the National Guard that the mayor wants to come to Philadelphia? Now there is no public information indicating Philadelphia Mayor Cheryl Perrigan has requested the deployment of National Guard to the city.
00:13:20
Speaker
While the t Trump administration has extended National Guard deployments in other cities, such as Washington, D.C., through the end of 2026, there is no evidence that Philadelphia is among these cities.
00:13:33
Speaker
That was from ChatGPT. Okay. Well, listen, so there we go. I'm just going to, we're going to run with it. And the folks that are telling me that, stop telling me that.
00:13:46
Speaker
um But it is good to know that we've got support around the ice thing because I've been feeling like people don't really give a fuck about Philadelphians right now. Like, I'm not going to Philadelphians have had it hard over the past, like, couple years.
00:14:00
Speaker
Except, you know, I mean, the Eagles went in, you know, and and then lost. You know, I get it. But, like... I'm just like, the past year has been stressful as fuck in Philadelphia. i don't know how anybody has not like blown a tit.
00:14:16
Speaker
And there probably have been people that because of how stressful it has been. um I, again, i don't know how we're going to do the 250th anniversary. I don't know how we're going to do the FIFA World Cup.
00:14:32
Speaker
It's supposed to happen. I don't know. I don't know how we're going to do it. I don't know.
Personal Connection & Intimacy
00:14:38
Speaker
Things I am looking forward to this year. I will say I'm looking forward to this. I've been hearing a lot of people say that they're looking to cut the subscriptions. They're looking to cut the Netflix. They're looking to cut the, you know, the unnecessary costs. They're looking to get more creative.
00:14:56
Speaker
I'm here for that. I think that it's about time. I've been in my creative bag for a minute. I'm trying to stay in my creative bag. It's been very, you know, I'm not going to say it's been difficult. I'm just going to say it's been a little bit hectic trying to get these this content out because again,
00:15:13
Speaker
Like, I think the thing that threw me off was I didn't record that one week. I recorded the one week and then I ended up accidentally deleting the video because, or not deleting the video. What am I talking about? I accidentally,
00:15:32
Speaker
um What did I do? I accidentally, I didn't record the audio. I didn't record the audio. um And then I had a, then I had one where I did accidentally delete a video and then I was like, well, it kind of sucked. Cause I was like, well, I wasn't really into it anyway. So um that was fine. um But yeah, it's hard to do all this by myself, you know? So I'm glad to hear other people are creative. And so I'm just hoping that there's opportunities to collaborate with other people. I'm looking to get back out there with my friend group um and see what they're doing. um I'm trying to stay consistent. It's not easy again, but I think it's going to be worth it in the end.
00:16:15
Speaker
I've also been doing other things. So I've kind of read like and I've had this period where, i've again, I've talked about a little bit earlier of my like, I don't know what I'm doing in that my five year plan anymore. Like, I don't I don't know.
00:16:29
Speaker
Like, I don't know. All I know is I i just know I want to be. I know I want a man, that's it, that's all I know. I know I want a man, I'm tired of being alone. I've been alone like for a lot of time.
00:16:40
Speaker
um I know it's just, it's time. Like I know that it's time to have a man. I know that there's there's that. um that's ah That for me is a priority to find someone that is like-minded. Like it can't be anybody, like for real, like I'm so serious. I'm not, I'm and like, we're not desperate over here.
00:17:01
Speaker
But I am ready to like have to experience intimacy and see what that's like and experience a softer side instead of being like a robot all of the time. Because I'm not a robot. I am a person and I have needs and desires and wants and like I'm
Excitement for AI & Coding
00:17:19
Speaker
allowed to have that. And so I have gone through this period of realizing that and so I want that now.
00:17:26
Speaker
And I'm trying to put more effort into it. than I had before. So that's another thing that i'm I'm looking, that's something I am looking forward to in 2026 because i um I realize I'm like, I'm actually very eligible right now. Like people, i even though I don't really care about that kind of stuff, like I don't per se care about like I think I care more about being autonomous or being um someone that has the ability to be sovereign and not have to live my life by someone else's rules.
00:18:01
Speaker
I want to like go as I please and do as I want and the idea of like even having a business or a practice or Just something that's mine that I feel like I can, um that people are going to come to see me for regardless because I'm me, makes me feel good and comfortable enough to say like, you know what, I can keep doing this. I can keep you know pushing. I can keep going.
00:18:31
Speaker
people are going to still want to show up. So for me, um I'm feeling great about that. I don't feel like that's going to be a thing in 2026 that's going to hinder me. If anything else, um I just see myself working with people less and like doing less direct practice and eventually just becoming licensed clinician. But like, just I just wouldn't see clients like I think that that would be the thing that I would just do.
00:18:59
Speaker
um and keep getting my hours and teach and, um and you know, again, I'm going on this, ah like I'm going on an IT journey right now. y'all I'm like really excited about it. I'm learning how to um code and um things like that. So I'm not going to be using MischadGBT for long.
00:19:18
Speaker
her um We're trying to get our own AI bot over here. i want to... um These, again, are things I'm really looking forward to. Like, I'm excited about in 2026, the innovation around AI and it's becoming more normalized in the day-to-day. was explaining...
00:19:42
Speaker
And this is wild because I was explaining my job to my roommate. What was it? Last year, some point. No, it might have been, um...
00:19:53
Speaker
Yeah, it was last year. It was early last year. I was thinking about, I was like explaining like, there has to be a way to automate our job a little bit easier because the work that we do is just so repetitive. We do a lot of letters, a lot of administrative work. We send out a lot of paperwork.
00:20:08
Speaker
We file a lot of paperwork in my job. So I feel like there should be some kind of system that's HIPAA compliant, but that's automated and I was trying to get that across and explain it then.
00:20:20
Speaker
And it didn't make sense, I think. Or it was just like, oh, you know, this ethics thing. did it-da-da and bladter dara And then we had the same conversation about what I was doing, which was, again, similar work to what I was doing back then. And he literally was just like, that sounds like that needs to be automated. And I'm like, this is literally what I've been saying for like,
00:20:46
Speaker
ever Like I'm trying to get people to understand that AI isn't this like... thing that people, yes, it is partly bad where it's like, yes, it is
AI Ethics & Smart Use
00:20:56
Speaker
destroying the earth, but I'm also like, it is something that is useful when it is used in a like actually helpful way.
00:21:08
Speaker
Like it's not supposed to be this thing that we just, you know, destroy the earth with. Like it's supposed to be like, it is super intelligence. So, you know, that we are, know,
00:21:20
Speaker
I guess, creating because we all pour into it. I think that's where I think that maybe it gets lost at maybe sometimes is the idea because it's learning from us as we give it things, which is why it's like, quote unquote, super, you know, intelligence um and why they create new models and like keep, you know, expanding and keep, you know, doing these different things because each model does like a different thing. So it's, I think it's way more like intriguing and interesting than people make it seem to be.
00:21:55
Speaker
And I think that yes, it like, it is bad and the destroying the earth and, you know, it has the ability to create the, you know, hallucinations and, um,
00:22:09
Speaker
I'm not, you know, saying that all that stuff is doesn't happen. But I also think that like, if you're not, I'm just going to be real. If you're not a very smart person, i don't think you should be using AI. I've said this before, but I'm just going to say it.
00:22:23
Speaker
And that's probably why my voice was like, girl, why'd you say that? Because I wasn't supposed to say that. um But yeah, I'm going to be controversial and just say
Cryptocurrency Insights & Market Lessons
00:22:32
Speaker
it. I think that smart people are supposed to use AI.
00:22:36
Speaker
Yup. Anyway, I'm also looking forward to this um crypto thing. um It's very interesting because people say what they want about Bitcoin.
00:22:52
Speaker
But what I will say about Bitcoin is that Bitcoin has never been 95,000 like and like it continues to go up.
00:23:03
Speaker
Like it continues to go up. Even when it goes down, it consolidates. it I mean, it's like a stock, basically. It's a digital stock. Like i'm I don't know how to really get across to people that that's that's all it is. It's like if you were into day trading,
00:23:22
Speaker
then this is kind of your jam. Like crypto is your jam. And so for me, I'm someone, I don't like the, again, the 9 of 9 30 to 4 30 or whatever those hours are. You put your order and you got to wait and dah, dah, dah, dah.
00:23:37
Speaker
Like, I'm not really like that person, but I do like crypto because of the way it moves. I like the idea of like these narratives, the inflows of like how equity gets distributed. i like the, um, I like all of the little logistical parts of it, um, where you get really into it. And then when I realized I was like, oh, it's only like multiplication and like graphs. Like it's not anything that I haven't done before.
00:24:06
Speaker
um And it's really, and and again, it's like long-term investing. Like if you're going into it and you are someone that's like, oh I'm just going to just be in and out. Like I've had Bitcoin just sitting, like I remember there was like, get a hard wallet. And I was like, okay, all right, cool. I'm gonna try this out. You know, i I was the person that wasted a lot of money on like trying this out at first.
00:24:35
Speaker
I was a person that was right there in the 2021 like Robin Hood, you know, the, you know, whatever, thinking I was doing popping my shit on, you know, this, that and the third.
00:24:48
Speaker
Meanwhile, the thing shutting down, I couldn't figure out how to put a limit order in. I couldn't how to do like all their stuff. And then I was like, you know what? Crypto is not making sense. I'm going to back away. And then it was my brother actually that told me. He was like, watch out for XRP. And then he told me to watch out for silver, which I should have done a lot sooner. And that's again, you know, RIP big bro, you know, looking out.
00:25:14
Speaker
um But that XRP, I've been on, you know, been on the XRP. We holding out. Um, but the, if I had just listened, I'm like, had I just done this sooner and had I just learned to control my emotions and like not go into it wanting, understanding that like, okay, these numbers are going to drop, but that like the value of the thing is going to keep going up and doing the actual research about like why the thing is going to go up.
Digital Economy & Societal Changes
00:25:42
Speaker
like watching the headlines, watching what's happening in the news. Like sometimes I'll watch the news and I'll i'll watch the like regular news about like what's going on in the in the world or like in the United States specifically.
00:25:56
Speaker
And it will say something like, oh, you know, Trump is doing da da da, and everyone's like, oh, complaining, blah, blah, blah, X, Y, Z. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's like going up.
00:26:06
Speaker
And I'm like, so no one else sees that this is happening right now, right? Like, I'm the only I'm one of the few people that seeing this and why the, you know, the tech bros are doing this. And then the thing with the NFTs, everyone's like, oh, I don't understand NFTs. And I'm like, well, NFTs are basically digital art and it's a finite amount.
00:26:30
Speaker
Like, it's literally mimicking. So say like Beyonce created like 500 collectible NFTs. Like she created 500 BRT, lot of NFTs. so say like beyonce created like five hundred collectible um and enough teas like she created five hundred like be our like NFTs and everybody was like, oh my God, I need to scramble and figure out how to get my little Bitcoin together, da da da, X, Y, z you know, to get her that money or I need to figure out how to get my um Beyonce coin to to her to figure out how to get her that money because she created a ah Beyonce coin on pump fund and she needed, you know, y'all to send her the money and for this thing. And y'all wanted this collectible because y'all are the beehive, right?
00:27:19
Speaker
And so they create, you know, y'all go through this thing, y'all get the collectible, y'all own this thing that y'all can post on your website or online or whatever, your Twitter, whatever, you know, and it stands out as being like this official thing that you got from Beyonce because you pay 500 Bitcoin, like 500 Bitcoin, but $500 in Bitcoin or $500 in like
00:27:44
Speaker
Beyonce coin and you ended up like getting this exclusive thing like that's literally how I thought that we would get to crypto right I just that's kind of where I'm I'm still thinking we're gonna go but i think it's taking a while to get there because people are just so like wanting to hate everything so bad and like not understand that like the information is like right there. Like, I don't know how else to, and this is why i think I personally have been falling back a lot and I'm going to try to make more of an effort to reach back out to people in 2026 and be more, um to show up more. It's been really hard, I think, to be present in my life because of everything that I have going on.
00:28:30
Speaker
But it is, um I just feel like I know a lot of stuff that's happening right now. And I just know that like, there are things in the works that are going to create the people that do really really well and people that you know won't like people literally and that's the thing that's the that is the funniest thing too about nfts is i keep hearing people say like oh remember nfts remember when nfts were a thing and people don't remember when don't remember that trends are a thing that like history does does not rhyme or does not repeat itself that it rhymes
00:29:09
Speaker
It does. So I feel like we're going to get back to this point where we're going to have this like push for like the digital economy and like everything's going to be online and everything's going to be this and everything's going to be that. But it's not going to be social media.
00:29:24
Speaker
Like we're not going to be just on or it's going to be like social integrated into some things. But like. we're going to have to be outside a little bit more and touch grass, but we're going to have our phones or whatever and do is going to do more of the things for us.
00:29:39
Speaker
um And so I'm wondering if that's going to be like something that just, you know, is more of a push. um I'm not sure if that's actually going to be right now. In the near future, um again, because of the divide between like people need money first.
00:29:56
Speaker
You know, the rich and the poor, you know, all of that. um I'm projected at some point, maybe 2040, We get there to where, you know, people be like, okay, we had enough, like, you know, we going, whatever, and, or things are going to at least maybe be better, but like maybe 20, 30 for like when people have had enough.
00:30:24
Speaker
Because this year is also the mid ah the midterms. I'm not looking forward to that.

That's going to be a fucking mess. I'm not looking forward to um the fact that a lot of things are going to be sequels and reboots this year. I'm not looking forward to um the fact that a lot of the gaming um spaces are going to be, again, re repeats. I'm curious to see when new things come out.
00:30:48
Speaker
um I'm building a PC, so there's going to be that. I'm really excited about that. i think I'm more excited about the personal projects I'm doing. I'm more excited about that. Like I'm more excited about my crypto project. I'm more worried ah or more excited about my um like continuing to run a practice and, you know, learn how to um invest. And I'm just more excited to, you know, have more experiences with friends and family.
00:31:19
Speaker
It's hard for me to say that I'm excited for things that are happening in the world now. And I don't know how to, and this can kind of be my final thought and we can wrap up here.
00:31:34
Speaker
I don't know how to make myself or if it matters anymore. I don't know if it matters anymore. Do we have to, does it matter if we care that like,
00:31:47
Speaker
we're connected to the next thing or the next, you know, big thing. Like, I think it matters that we, they're connected to like the news in the sense that, you know, we need to know what's happening to each other. We need to understand like that the world, that people are going through things and that, um,
00:32:09
Speaker
we need to still create real change in the world but i don't know if we like for example like scream 7 comes to mind i just want to end on that like I'm not excited to see that. Like, I'm not going to go see Scream 7 because of how they treated Marisa Barrera and Jenna Ortega.
00:32:35
Speaker
And the fact that there's literally still this... war happening in Palestine. Like, no one is fixing it or doing anything. And these people are still living in tents. And it just seems so, it's so heartbreaking that it, just it's dis demystifying, almost. It's, it's,
00:33:03
Speaker
very Neptunes out of Pisces, like very Neptune entering Aries as we end.
Embracing Chaos & Personal Goals
00:33:11
Speaker
um I don't have this desire for, and maybe that's why these episodes may be coming out like a bit slower um sometimes because I don't really have the same desire to um put out content to talk about like the next thing or like that be the first one or to be i don't know if i've ever had that desire to be the first because i've always it's always been in my nature to want to investigate the facts first i think the thing is that the facts just keep changing so quickly so it's like well what do you talk about like what do you talk about on a podcast we do talk what do you bring to you know to the discussion and
00:34:02
Speaker
I think sometimes it is like, well, what is it that I'm working on? What is it that I'm doing? It's this, it is this crypto stuff. It is this, um, the IT stuff. It is the fact that I'm, you know, running a practice, um, that I'm coming out of a period of struggle, that this is a time of so much loss,
00:34:29
Speaker
But almost looking at the bright side or looking at the reality of it all um and taking off the rose colored glasses a little bit and just being real ah with myself.
00:34:43
Speaker
I'll say that being real with myself about what I want in life. Because again, I don't really know what I want for like when I'm 50 per se. Like I don't even know where I'm going to, like what's going to happen anymore. And I saw this TikTok that was, again, i need to like get off the phone, but I saw this TikTok where this lady was talking about, no, it was an Instagram reel, not a TikTok.
00:35:08
Speaker
Instagram reel where this lady was talking about how or are talking about how millennials have experienced time in a nonlinear sense because we've experienced like people telling us oh you're supposed to do this you're supposed to do this and you're going to do this but how that really doesn't exist and how you should technically just embrace the chaos and just go with it instead of trying to fix everything and i'm like that actually makes a lot of sense And maybe that's how I need to just approach life and stop trying to fix everything and trying to make it all perfect and just live day to day like it's just another day. i feel like by the time I get to that point in my day, though, I've like forgotten it by the next day. Like I'll go to sleep and and forget that the next day.
00:35:51
Speaker
So I need to like write that down. And then that's what it see, you know, it's the brain anyway. Um, that's it for

00:36:23
Speaker
Why? I don't, I'm going to get this together. Like we've got to get this together. I really have to just write this down or something because my brain just won't get it. I think because I'm trying to keep up with the thought and I think quicker than I can speak.
00:36:39
Speaker
Like if I can talk like this and then I can speak, in my head like it just is not matching like i my brain is like dude's what you do but that's the hd um we're gonna we're gonna work on that anyway um i hope everyone has a good rest of their week and i will talk to everyone next week bye
