@@julienayanalightner8057For a genuine response, yes. They’re boys, you’re a boy. I’m into more feminine looking men myself, but I’m not attracted to them because I see them as women, I still see them as men, just feminine.
I’ve worked in 3 restaurant kitchens and 1. I’m a man so I am part of these statistics 2. The head chief was a man in all three and 2 of them were run entirely by men
Supposedly, being a chef in a restaurant requires knowledge and skills that those silly wimminfolks can’t understand. They can cook for the family but could NEVER be good enough to be a professional 🙄🙄 Really. That’s their reasoning…
No, it's making women gay. But my question is: If listening to Lil Nas X makes male kids gay, would listening to Nicki Minaj make them straight again or would that turn them bi instead?
Honestly, I would like to know what one of those people would say when you ask them if men liking manly women makes them gay, would women liking manly women make them straight. Really, I could see all 3 options, yes they are gay for that, because it isn't what they consider normal, no they aren't, because they are not attracted to feminine women, or 3 they just start insulting, screaming, crying and rambling, what is the average for those people for asking about their weird statements.

6:53 I remember when my husband and I had just recently started dating. He had a full blown panic attack over some past trauma he had opened up about and started bawling. I immediately squeezed him into a tight hug, petting his hair and telling him to let it out. This broke him even more, with him constantly apologizing. I just repeated "you're safe, you're loved" until he was able to calm down. Moments later, he was cradling me as I cried, after he told me that no one, not even his parents, had ever let him be that vulnerable. Fuck anyone who "gets the ick" from a guy being vulnerable. You're an asshole!
I think it's important to know that he wasn't actually calling him a wonderful man With full context it's so much worse :) He was actually making an analogy for immigrants, saying that people who victimize people who are coming into the country illegally are calling glorifying criminals. He wasn't praising a cannibalistic serial killer, he was treating immigrants the same as a cannibalistic serial killer
3:44 I read a similar story where a man on reddit was asking for advice on what to do after he cried in front of his wife (pretty sure it was over something huge like his dad dying) and she was "disturbed" to see a "strong christian man" cry, and she was distant to him ever since. Fun reminder that patriarchy harms everybody, and that anyone, not just men, can perpetuate patriarchal norms.
How does this wife becoming distant from her husband after a tragedy patriarchy? She as an invidivisual, as a person, and asa woman chose to respond like that. Thay response doesn't benefit men in the slightest. How is a woman's actions mens fault?
Yep misogyny is used against men all the time. (No this does not make it some new thing called "misandry", it is literally based on the idea that being a woman is naturally degrading so sharing any qualities associated with women degrades you.).
Someone needs to point these "Christian" people to the part of their own "bible" that says, "Jesus wept." Or is that too gay for them? What if it is? 😅
18:39 the boat fence thing is even better... alledgedly the HOA complained they needed to hide the boat behind a fence. Thale fence that went up is actually a painting of the boat behind it.

Not sure that you can get through a tire with a wooden spear though. And even then you have to be able to reach them while it's moving. A Mamooth is way different anyway.
@@noefillon1749 depends how you jab it and what type of wood, there are some harder woods that will puncture a car tire if driven over them badly, for example grazing the sidewall
@@noefillon1749 Yes you can get thorough a tire with a wooden spear maybe not with modern pine but if you use hard wood (which Stone Age people would have been using) especially if you flame harden the tip. And that ignoring that flint spear heads where one of the first things early man learned to make long before mammoths went extinct (oldest found is from 55,000 year before just to be clear)
5:20 i hate that "you must not care that much since you don't show obvious emotions" so strong During stressful times my emotionnal expression shuts down, i express almost nothing but the emotions are here. I had so many people telling me i'm not expressful enough and it hurt so freaking much when you do feel but simply cannot express
Same, sometimes I just emotionally shut down and it SUCKS!! My spawn points have pulled the same shit on me. Then again I was accused of "mocking me with your eyebrows" when the upper half of my face was paralyzed from Botox and they knew this. Like I can't be making mocking motions with my eyebrows when I can't move my eyebrows.
It's crazy to me that people see someone go dead in the eyes and think they are uncaring, instead of recognizing that they have been too decimated to function beyond autopilot. I'm sorry you had to deal with that.
Fun Fact: Most prices of anything are hyperinflated. In general most companies charge around 400-800% the cost of what it actually takes to make and sell the product.
Dude I saw that train guy on twitter. He made another reply that said "you'll never take our cars from us." With a gif of a happy family in a car. Sorry, but if you think that's a road trip, you never did one as a kid. Imagine sitting in the back of a hot bumpy car with a little kid crying, cramped because of the luggage. On a train you can sit around a table with your family and talk, and get up and walk around. Fast & cleaner too. Source: I live in the US and drove 11 hours each way to Texas as a kid. I also have visited Europe and rode a train from England to France.
I've taken AMTRAK in the US & love taking the train for long distance travel. I believe all Americans should take at least one trip by AMTRAK in their lives. The problem is the oil lobbyists.
Yes. Because nothing is straight. Even if you draw a straight line it's still not straight due to the curved earth bending everything. Science literally makes everything unable to be straight.
bohoo...I'm a straight guy, who probably hitted on more lesbian girls than u xDD And not intentional, is the point... Put me in a room with 10 girls, just one of'em lesbian. I'll bet my arse, it's the one I find myself attrected to -.-' xD
20:00 that's the point, prison is a private for profit industry in the USA. They make more money if people are in a revolving door where it's impossible to get back into society
Always love the whole "In the USA, you can drive for four hours and reach the next state over, in europe you can drive 4 hours and be in another country!" Meanwhile in australia: "Yeah I drove for 6 hours in a straight line to get to the next petrol station, just 4 more hours until I actually reach a town!"
There’s actually some areas in New Mexico, Colorado, and the Texas Panhandle that I’ve driven for hundreds of miles without a gas station. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s like this in Wyoming too. Still a nothing like Australia where majority of it is like this.

Should add: lions don't normally kill full grown elephants, but one pride of lions figured out how to work together to take down elephants and that pride had to be exterminated by park rangers as it was feared that this 'spreading' as a hunting behavior would wipe out elephants entirely. It's one of the more recent examples of humans having to decide which wild animals doing their own thing are 'allowed' to do that thing, and if we should intervene or not. Lions are quite small (edit: compared to an african elephant*) and easily taken out by elephants, but they can, even without tools or human-like intelligence, figure out how to take down an animal that size. Surely, humans could.
Oh that's interesting. I understand their worries since African elephants are still endangered if I remember right. Do you remember where you read/heard about this? I'd like to read more about it
If it wasn't for human interference massively fucking up that ecosystem, it would have been very intresting to watch the Elephants develop anti Lion tactics as the Lions developed Elephant hunting tactics. But with how nuch the elephant population has been reduced, having Lions hunting them would have just resulted in extinction, no time for evolution to work.

A notable thing about the train maps: the US used to have WAY more train lines all over the place. But over the years many fell into disrepair or got closed down to make way for cars/highways and no one bothered to keep them running. I wish we had more trains here so badly. Driving to Chicago from my house takes about as long as it would be train (~4 hours) but obviously on a train I can read/play on my phone/ do literally anything when I can't in a car. It's also about the same price when you factor in toll roads and gas. Unfortunately, cuz trains are so deprioritized compared to cars, there's only one (1) train to Chicago and one back. The only train to Chicago leaves at nine am. The only train back leaves at 4 pm. It's so frustrating. Last week tonight did an episode on America's tail system relatively recently (tldr: it's real bad y'all) which I highly recommend
the one at 37:00 is honestly the reason why I plan at whatever potential future interviews I get, to respond to their 'what motivates you' question with 'the threat of homelessness'. It's literally the only motivation I have for ANYTHING at this stage, with how in the trash the economy has become.
About the trains thing. America used to have a moderate tram system, Ford bought out the companies and had all the tracks tore up so he could sell his cars, because people didn't want to buy cars when they could take a tram instead.
@@gooeydude574 A tram is a streetcar or trolley if you’re american or smth. If you just don’t know it, it’s a rail vehicle similar to a small train but it goes in public urban streets.
@@gooeydude574 think the trolleycars in San Francisco or if you've ever seen Who Framed Roger Rabbit that's set around the era when LA was wiping out the tram system to build highways. We had a good tram system here in Adelaide, South Australia back in the 50's or so, then they tore up all tracks so all we had left was one line running from the center of the city to the beach at glenelg using 70-80 year old historic tram cars known as "old rattlers" as a tourism thing, then they realised that the transport into the city was borked so they spent billions upgrading that tram line and getting new fancy trams, extended the tram line first down through the center of the city to the main railway station (so you could catch a train into the city then a tram from the station to the other city of the CBD so you didn't have as far to walk), made tram travel within the boundaries of the city free (you only need to pay once you go past the last stop before hitting the suburbs) and then built further extensions to take the tram out to one of the major entertainment venues that's a bit outside the other end of the city, and then another branch going from the railway station up to the two big university campuses in town. All of this took like 20 years in stages and ridiculous amounts of money and it's still only a small tram system compared to what we used to have, and nowhere near as good as the one in Melbourne.
Sure cars give you more freedom to go where you want, when you want, than trains do. The tradeoff is a huge financial burden that sometimes takes away your financial freedom completely... Can we have more public transportation here PLEASE!? *grabs Europe's pantleg beseechingly*
Little extra on the "prehistory is fake because spears can't take down a Uhaul" bit: it wasn't just one spear that took the mammoth down. Most human species - there were multiple - were/are social animals, and so would form groups that would hunt together. Not only that, early humans would do sneaky things such as set traps in ditches or snares, or better yet just drive prey off a cliff like they were a bunch of lemmings. A Uhaul might survive a few spears, but I betcha it'll burst into pieces upon impact with the ground if you drive it off a tall cliff. Edit: Oh, and also fire. Which most animals are scared of and humans very quickly started using as another tool.
I was gonna say, didn’t they essentially just walk the mammoths to death sometimes? Like, humans are incredibly durable creatures, I thought most of the time we wouldn’t chase after prey, we would just walk until the prey collapsed from exhaustion
Some modern tribes still hunt elephants with spears, or at least did until recently. There's even videos of elephant hunts where a large group of people circle an elephant and throw spears at it until it bleeds out. It's not just an ice age thing
and he's not even right, you can absolutely stop a U-Haul truck with a spear, just aim for the driver or engine... it's almost like... aiming for the brain or heart of a mammoth...
@@lonesome_pearPretty much. Bipedal movement sacrifices speed for better energy efficiency, combine that with the ability to sweat for body temp regulation and you get a hunter built for chasing down an injured animal until either the injury or their depleted energy lets them catch up and finish the job.
Also, they dug deep pits then lit fire behind the herd wich made the prey panic, run and fall into the pit. Then the hunters could use the spears to kill it without being swiped by the trunk.
40:00 *Making* a child can technically be free (since all of the costs of feeding both people could possibly stay consistent, and we're assuming a clean pregnancy with no complicaitons or check-up costs), but birthing, at least in the US, is *definitely* not free. That can cost hundreds if not a $1k+ pending how it all goes. Then you add clothing. Diapers. Bedding. Bathing. Toys. Milk (pump or powder, bottles too). There's a lot even early on. Add the tax on your sleep schedule, the loss of work hours taking more money potential away, anything they break, hospital check-ups and vaccinations, schooling, like.. Don't *ever* act like having a kid is free. Even before they're born you likely have ultra sounds, check-ups, a possible birthing class, any cravings you might try to satiate, heartburn meds, extra food (both from growing a baby and needing more food, and from vomiting due to morning sickness so you have to make up for the lost food), possible ER stay bills (yes, they charge you for existing in a room for a bit)... And add that you may not have health insurance, or have an unfortunately high co-pay.. it adds up fast even in the first year or two.
She deserves a platform, what she doesn't deserve is people dumb enough to read what she says and instead of pointing how absolutely wrong she is, they listen to her for some absurd reason
23:13 if you really want to "teach" your kid about something Such as not forgetting their project, why not just quietly bring it with you, let them be shocked for a bit then give it to them? Isn't that just a way better way of learning? Or like just remind them like "hey didn't you forget something."
Nope. I'm sure he has no idea. For him human history probably starts with victorian middle class or something - I feel like that's where the idea of keeping women inside is coming from 🤷🏼♂️
It was probably earlier than that, like medieval times maybe, but it only really ever applied to noblewomen. Lower/working class women have always had to "work outside like a man"
@@feuerling what do u mean by that, exactly? like: "Stone age people lived in caves", or "humans were outside, more often than inside a house"? because both would be wrong... The oldest house construction is somewhat of ~2 million years old. Compared to the 3.4 million years, since the beginning of the stone age, u'll see my point ^^ But sry...that's the archaeology-illness. I even had to categorize the pottery in skyrim. (which rly is possible, many roman-style vase-types)
Typically, early hunters would cause mammoths to panic and then stampede them off cliffs, or they'd ambush them in groups. So, is not like one guy, alone, would throw sharp sticks at them.
5:53 when something hits you so hard that it leaves you numb like this, LITERALLY the worst thing that can happen is being told that it seems like you don't care, there are broderline no effective ways to deliver more damage through someone's mind, i hope he didn't feel too remorse for doing that, it would only make things worse afterall and sometimes we need to be able to allow ourselves to make mistakes, the harder the situation the larger the tolerance.

40:03 It literally costs money to give birth at a hospital in a lot of states. Not only are they talking out of their ass but they are also stupidly un-selfaware.
18:40 Click, this is painted, not a glass fence. The guy hired his neighbor (who is an artist) to paint the boat and its surroundings after he brainstormed with said artist neighbor about how to best get back at the city government. Malicious Compliance at its finest!
To add to 3:06, that started with the classics. Sara Jane? Leela? Romana? Did Metro UK forget all the straight white men who played the Doctor before Jodie Whittaker? Doctor Who has always been incredibly inclusive, they were already breaking social norms when they hired Verity Lambert and Waris Hussein to work on the show at its very beginning as the producer and a director respectively. Not to mention all the incredibly preachy serials from the classic era like Invasion of the Dinosaurs and The Sun Makers. It’s like these people have never watched the show…
Fun thing about the mammoths: we didn't even always hunt them with spears. We chased them with spears...Right over large cliff edges. There are massive mammoth graveyards at the bases of cliffs that were regularly used to drive them over as humans would chase an entire herd off and leave the unused remains to rot.
Why would they leave it to rot instead of using what they hunted? Do archeologists think it was for sport? Genuine question, not sure if you happen to know :)
Another factor is persistance hunting, humans comparitively are small, we sweat, we have great endurance. Chase mammoth, it runs a bit and stops to rest, but the hunters are close enough that it doesn't get to, so it runs again, not as far, wash, rinse, repeat until it is overheated and exhausted and easy to kill. Thanks HFY subreddit for teaching me that.
@@TheLugiaSong I was desperate for someone who would take payments, though I ended up paying for it all at once, but this is the same dentist that nearly KILLED someone.

HOW he is even allowed to practice is beyond me, then again, I had a dentist that only lost his license for 5 years in a narcotics scheme.
24:45 Also, it would be pretty easy for an experienced hunter to stop a U-Haul truck with a spear. Just go for the tires. Also, for the comparison to be accurate, we have to assume that the U-Haul truck doesn't have very much fuel, and can't maintain 24 mph for very long.
24:04 humans didn't just throw sticks at mammoths, too. Humans have ridiculous amounts of stamina and resilience. IIRC the prevailing theory on how humans hunted animals like mammoths is that they would track them, attack from afar, and when the mammoth ran off, they'd continue tracking it because humans are capable of walking/running for a lot longer than basically most animals, and definitely longer than huge mammals. So at some point the mammoth either bled out with how many wounds it had, or just collapsed of exhaustion and was very easy to kill. Many animals also do not have the ability to realize they need to stop or they will die, horses for example will run until their hearts give out if they are forced to, but a human hunter will just know when to chill and take a rest and also has the ability to figure out where their prey may have gone even if they took a break.
Correct. The whole "there's a snail who can't be stopped following you, and if it touches you, you die," scenario is ultimately just humans conceptualizing the horror of being our own ancient prey.
18:45 It gets better. That's not a glass fence. That's a regular one that was painted to look like there wasn't one. Extra effort went into flipping off the HOA who demanded he put up that fence in the first place
I can imagine that the “fee to stay free” in Florida is a way to suppress votes. In Florida you are only allowed to vote after jail when you also paid all money you owe for the process.

@@h0peros382 In some US states people who went to jail lose their right to vote. Florida citizens voted to change that, but there is a party who doesn’t want that… They can’t ignore the vote, but made it extra hard. Republicans. It’s Republicans.

26:37 Not only is she insinuating being trans is like blackfacing, she's also doing some pretty racist essentialism toward black people to justify this stance.
This is the same person who wrote an Irish character who was prone to blowing things up and named the only Asian character Cho Chang. She's never really been one for depth, subtlety, or cultural and racial sensitivity.
I think the Irish kid only blew stuff up in the movies, but I'll let you trade that fact in for the fact that the only notable black character she included in the HP novels was named Kingsley SHACKLEBOLT. It's like the only "black person thing" she could think of was SLAVERY.
The guy being told by his mom that he must not care because he isn't breaking down sobbing really hits home. I'm very much a low emotional display person when it comes to death. I tend to go into protect mode to care for others who are more emotional in their grieving and then grieve on my own later when I can sit and reflect on my own. So, I've been accused of being an ahole or an insensitive prick. When the reality is that I do feel pain and sorrow, im just uncomfortable with displaying it openly. I do also have some tendencies to respond in ways that can be upsetting for others when it is a family member who dies because I have a very jaded relationship with most of my family. I've experienced so much abuse from most of my own that often makes me question how I survived to adulthood and kind of hindered my ability to form strong bonds with my family members. So there are only like 4 who id probably grieve at all. The rest I'm just sort of indifferent about due to the circumstances. As a result, I tend to be very reserved and careful with my words and actions around others, and avoid discussing death openly, to limit the risk that I'll upset them. But it is a catch 22 because I'll avoid upsetting them with what I say, but then they think I'm an ahole, unless they know me better, because they assume I don't care about the situation when I really do care. I care about taking care of them and making sure they are okay.
I can relate to this. You feel emotions your own way, no one should have a right to tell you how to feel your feelings. And there’s nothing wrong with not outwardly expressing yourself. I hope that you can either find someone you can be open about your emotions with, or find someone that is accepting of you and your emotions as they are
A dear friend of mine ended his life early and unexpectedly. I was so overwhelmed with planning a funeral, estate business and looking out for his four kids, 12 and younger. I never got a CHANCE to grieve for him until months later. Don’t let anyone tell you how or when to grieve. Still miss you, Rick; you were a good man.😢
I met someone who had the opposite experience. Her teacher was an atheist and happened to be a bitch. She mocked her for being upset that her grandma died because "as a Christian she should be happy her grandma went to heaven."

17:37 its also funny when you learn the last name is "asplundh", you know the classic 'all american' name that literally means "grove of aspen" in swedish, because the family she married into emigrated from sweden about 100 years ago... "we are the only asplundhs in america" well its a name of swedish origin you doofus. and also the name "katherine asplundh" is the name i, as a swedish person, would pick for a very plain fictional character, like and their teacher was katherine asplundh...
If that is the name in question, then they are NOT the only Asplundhs in America - I know someone with that name, who has siblings and I'm sure none of them is (or is married to) the person in this story. (And they're not rich).
There's a tree trimming company in the greater St Louis metro area if I recall correctly. No idea if it is related to either of the 2 families already mentioned.
@wartgin yup, the family that runs the asplundh tree expert company is the one that katherine married into. the company is apparently really big (idk im not american), and forbes listed them as the 109th largest private company in the united states. they were also fined 95 million usd in 2017 for exploiting undocumented workers....

All those things about salaries being too low for cost of life quite often result in some rich business owner saying that no one got rich by paying large wages and selling for cheap; a quick search shows you that some guy called Henry Ford got rich, all his faults aside, by paying his workers the *equivalent to modern $175 an hour,* saving them the need to pay rent, having them work a reasonable amount of hours (no overtime) and selling his products way cheaper then his competitors (who paid way less, had longer working hours and didn't give free housing). Of course, he did a lot of questionable things, but the point still stands.

The problem is, it really wouldn’t happen unless you specifically struggle with depression (which would counteract the adhd importance process) or would only happen ONCE because you got distracted and then the resounding guilt when you realize what you’re forgetting would traumatize you too much for your brain to forget it. Unless you’re just an ass of course.
I personally like the new "Progress" flag, and understand why emphasizing the presence of trans and POC members of the LGBT community was desirable. But I would never call the original "Pride" flag noninclusive. The problem was never that the flag wasn't including people, it was that white cis people needed an extra reminder that it did, in fact, include everyone in the community. Preferring the OF flavour Pride flag is fine (unless you're doing it for transphobic and/or racist reasons).
as a cis white male - the elusive supportive or at least does not care type -, I cheered for the rainbow, you know, the literal physical spectrum of light, to include EVERYTHING. Nowadays I feel kinda bumped that I am not included but instead the whole alphabet and some math signs are. The moment you start to individually count, you are bound to leave something out. So by arguing to need to add another letter and another color code and to give each strain of spectrum an individual flag, you started to lose the inclusiveness of the rainbow. But hey, I like me a muscle mommy, so I am not cis anymore. Which color do I get?
@christianstorms3950 The straight flag already exists. Also yes individual identities have flags, but also the whole community has a flag as a whole. It's like saying we shouldn't have state flags, because we already have a flag representing the whole of the USA.
@@christianstorms3950 the rainbow is there for the oppressed. It's not there for entertainment or feeling special. White cis het men are not oppressed, so you are not individually represented on the flag. It's a fight for basic human rights, which you with your privilege had from birth. The oppressors are not entitled to be included. I am sorry that your privilege is not enough and that you are not happy as long as you're not a part of everything, but you can't be offended that you are not on the list of Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Trans, Queer, Intersex, Ace/Aro, Pansexuals or POC, because you are not one of us.

Trump didn’t even recognize that Hannibal Lecter is a fictional character who only becomes more “sympathetic” in the later novels. Lecter is a repulsive cannibalistic monster even though he normally chooses to kill and eat people who are almost as bad as he is. Hannibal Lecter could never be described as a wonderful man by a normal person.
@@melissawickersham9912 does he ever become sympathetic? I never read Hannibal Rising but I know that he was horrific in Red Dragon and Silence of the Lambs, and the book version of Hannibal (unlike the movie) was written more out of disdain for the people who liked the Lecter character.

9:39 What gets me about this whole attitude is the fact that the US used to have a world-class nationwide rail network. We didn't settle the west by car, we settled it with the train. Times were that you could get from every state capital to every other state capital (and most other urban centers to boot) by train. This all changed when a lot of track was bulldozed, I repeat, BULLDOZED, for Eisenhower's interstate highway system. After that (and, of course, some good old lobbying by the major players of the automotive industry), car dependency was encouraged, and now commuter rail (especially long-distance commuter rail) is far more limited than air travel or car travel and often more expensive. Make no mistake, this shift towards car dependency was not the consumers changing their preferences, it was targeted advertisement and lobbying changing the consumer's interests for them.
"Life is so easy if you ignore the math" Lol, this reminded me of a post of someone who claimed they were a single parent who homeschooled their kids, ran their own business for 100+ hours a week, took their kids to events, ran all the errands, a few other things I'm forgetting, and still had time to cook every meal from scratch. Of course with the obligatory "If I can do it anyone can". Except let's see, 24x7=168 hours per week. Minus 100 hours of work is 68 hours. Minus 30 hours of homeschool is 38 hours. Just subtracting work and school leaves only 5.4 hours per day for everything else. When you added up all the things they claimed to be doing every day, they would've needed 25 hours per day, and that doesn't include time for sleeping.
@@arielruby13 oh they were definitely lying because they claimed to be doing it 100% on their own, and even if they doubled up the homeschooling while working (which they claimed to not be doing), just taking the things they listed times for left them less than 7 hours a day to cook, run errands, cook, go to events, and sleep. And that's assuming only 100 hours of work, when they listed 100+ and made that plus very obvious to make it clear they often worked more. Honestly my best guess is they didn't have kids (or they were in public school) and worked closer to 80 hours a week. Because in the comments (I didn't actually interact) when challenged on some of the stuff, like how they taught their kids, what they taught their kids, did their kids get time to socialize outside of an academic setting, did they go to museums, etc, their only replies were to mock people for being so stupid that they'd never heard of homeschooling and suggest they google it, say "I teach them, do you not know what teach means?", or in reference to the museum and zoo type questions, to ask if the person knew what the word home meant, like "It's HOMEschool, it's at HOME, that's what HOME means". Like oh, so what and how you teach your kids is "I teach them"? I'm not a parent, I've never been homeschooled (I do know some people who have, with a variety in quality), but I know significantly more about homeschooling than this person did. They could not elaborate at all about anything to do with how or what they taught. And the whole "homeschool means school at home and nothing else" attitude was just so telling.
on the topic of the mammoth hunters, humans are persistence hunters. chased the prey at a consistent pace so the prey had no chance to rest until it collapsed from exhaustion.
That works better for gazelles n shit not mammoths, we more commonly laid traps for mammoths, like scaring them with fire and spears to cause them to fall off of cliffs
I know there is arecheological evidence of running Mammoths off of cliffs, but you still have to get them running in the first place. I believe the assumption is that a team of hunters would simply wound trhre mammoth and get it to run away. As it gets weaker with blood loss, the team keeps harassing it. Without a convenient cliff it just takes longer. Even if it's just bleeding enough to leave a trail you can still just run it down. But yes, persistence hunters. Look it up.I believe humans are one of the few mammals that can just run indefinitely without everheating.

The thing about the guy whose mom got angry at him for not greeting properly kind of reminded me of some conversations I had with my mom back in middle school. Tone issues are a part of my autism, and I was attempting to explain to her that I am often not upset, I just can’t control my tone without serious focus, (and very valiantly not screaming that every time I am not upset and she yells at me about being upset I get much closer to actually being upset, that what sounds like me being upset sounds like a flat tone to me, but she either didn’t believe me or wasn’t listening and it was just so frustrating I gave up and went back to playing video games. About a week later (i don’t remember how it came up) but I was saying something about how I have to constantly be high energy and jokey and over react with my emotions in conversation and also target my jokes to the specific people I’m with (I didn’t get to the part where I do that to make my emotions readable) and she said “That sounds exhausting.” And I just stared at her. She was playing WoW or something so I just started at her, mouth gaping, wondering how she wasn’t connecting this to our previous conversation and I then changed the subject I think. I was planning on segwaying into why I’m kinda tired and non-conversational when I come home from school and that it’s actually kind of effortless at this point due to how long I’ve been doing it but doing it all day wears me down a little and I just… gave up. Years later when I was actually diagnosed with autism, found out previous doctors had suspected I had autism, that she knew about said doctor’s suspicions, and did more research into it I wanted to scream because seriously how did she not put any of these pieces together?
So you were masking, i know how tiring it is, because i had to mask to be less expressivr (im autistic as well, but apparently im over expressive with my emotions and faces so i either learned to mask as a kid and never stopped or i just emote like i can and people i constantly am around understand me. But apparently when i am lost in thought, i mostly feel that i look neutral but others ask me if i am angry. I cant control the tone in my voice, unless i try very very hard, i mostly speak somewhat loud
23:14 *Does not help child* "Learn this while Im still around" As opposed to when youre gone, when you will not not help your child??? Youre not parenting right now, what will change when youre gone ?
42:47 well fun fact that did happen to me as a kid, I was ten with my mom at Walmart, and I had a horrible tendency to wander that I still have as a adult, but I just slowly wandered further and further away from my mom, she didn’t realize that I was moving away from her because I was a pretty quiet kid, she still thought I was following her, she buys everything loads the car and starts driving home, she’s half way home before realizing that I wasn’t in the car, and for context I lived pretty far away from town, enough so that a trip into town was a big deal, so she turned around came back to Walmart and their i was flipping through posters not even aware that I had been nearly abandoned for a full hour. To this day she’ll love to boost to others saying“I’ve never forgotten any of my kids” I’m very eager to remind her that she did
My grandmother died earlier this year. I don't have any more grandparents. I never had a huge emotional and visible moment of grief over it, but it still hits me a few times a day at random moments, when something reminds me about her. Just looking at me you wouldn't really know there was anything wrong, but it's a thousand tiny little needles of pain which you can't see.
I sympathize, I'm doing the same with parents especially since the last of my Dad's siblings has died so there is no one left to ask questions of or check memories with. I've always liked the way Miss Manners argued for a visible indicator of mourning (the black clothes or armbands that people used to wear). She said it served as a public warning that you were likely to have unusual emotional reactions to everyday stuff - crying for no obvious reason or laughing if reminded of a funny memory.
25:37 So, that's actually somewhat incorrect. The megafauna that evolved during the ice age were uniquely adapted to the colder climates caused by the encroaching ice sheets. When the ice sheets started to recede, causing warmer climates, these megafauna were unable to adapt quickly and started dying off from heatstroke, which was exacerbated by humans hunting them.

I live in the U.S. and I would SELL MY FRICKIN SOUL for more passenger trains. No words can describe how much I viscerally HATE driving. I hate other drivers (most of them are way too reckless). I hate paying for the car loan, insurance, oil changes, repairs, replacements, etc. Even though I COULD technically go anywhere, I could never AFFORD to go anywhere! Because of my damn car!! When my last car was totalled by a surprise deer crossing the highway at night (I was okay, the deer was not) I just threw up my hands and said "screw this, I'll ride the bus to work!". It's not always a super reliable way to get around and I walk a lot of places now, but I'm so much less stressed now than when I owned a car.
I took the bus to work for 2 years. It was an extra 2 hours in the morning and an extra 2 hours at night. But at least I had an excuse why I couldn't be assigned any after hours conversions. The company bought a new building and I was able to take the train for a portion so it cut the commute down to 1 hour each way.
I agree. Traffic sucks. I've had my driver's license for 10 years and by now I genuinely do not want to own a car anymore. Luckily I live in Europe where we still have good public transport, although that still costs an arm and a leg.
Both my older sister and younger sibling take public transportation and don't have to worry about being chained down by the responsibility of a car. One lives in LA, the other in DC. Having been to both, cars are horrible in cities like that and public transport (or biking) is honestly alot faster than getting stuck in traffic.
Going on a bit of a rant here. I'd say that i have really good friends, but i still feel unable to open up about how i feel, not to them, not to anyone, sometimes not even to myself, and it's one of those situations where you know subconsciously what you are feeling, but you try to push it away, and ignore it, acting like that will make it not real, and i didn't really go through trauma that caused this i don't think, it's just that my emotional intelligence is really low, not sure why i even said this but there you go uwu
4:35 that pissed me off, as a woman partnered with what I can only describe as a “Giant Teddy Bear” who works two jobs to help us both out financially. He is stressed out a lot of the time and uses gaming to destress, but whenever I have extra money from MY job I’ll usually offer to take him out to dinner. He pays most of the bills and makes me feel secure, it’s literally the least I can do.
Well, my grandpa was my whole world and I love him deeply. I just hope (I'm pretty sure he will, because he was like that) me carrying on his legacy in construction makes him proud. If you care for someone enough it's okay to be sad after they die. Just ask your partner if they expect you to cry when they die, that should solve a lot of problems.

6:53 I remember when my husband and I had just recently started dating. He had a full blown panic attack over some past trauma he had opened up about and started bawling. I immediately squeezed him into a tight hug, petting his hair and telling him to let it out.
This broke him even more, with him constantly apologizing. I just repeated "you're safe, you're loved" until he was able to calm down.
Moments later, he was cradling me as I cried, after he told me that no one, not even his parents, had ever let him be that vulnerable.
Fuck anyone who "gets the ick" from a guy being vulnerable. You're an asshole!

Fun reminder that patriarchy harms everybody, and that anyone, not just men, can perpetuate patriarchal norms.

Should add: lions don't normally kill full grown elephants, but one pride of lions figured out how to work together to take down elephants and that pride had to be exterminated by park rangers as it was feared that this 'spreading' as a hunting behavior would wipe out elephants entirely. It's one of the more recent examples of humans having to decide which wild animals doing their own thing are 'allowed' to do that thing, and if we should intervene or not.
Lions are quite small (edit: compared to an african elephant*) and easily taken out by elephants, but they can, even without tools or human-like intelligence, figure out how to take down an animal that size. Surely, humans could.
Oh that's interesting. I understand their worries since African elephants are still endangered if I remember right. Do you remember where you read/heard about this? I'd like to read more about it
I believe you because one time I watched a documentary about lions and that pride took down a full grown giraffe
Lions, and Elephants. Both no match for the Honey Badger. An army of Honey Badgers would be the strongest military force on the planet.
"Shit the lions figured out how to kill elephants"
If it wasn't for human interference massively fucking up that ecosystem, it would have been very intresting to watch the Elephants develop anti Lion tactics as the Lions developed Elephant hunting tactics.

A notable thing about the train maps: the US used to have WAY more train lines all over the place. But over the years many fell into disrepair or got closed down to make way for cars/highways and no one bothered to keep them running. I wish we had more trains here so badly. Driving to Chicago from my house takes about as long as it would be train (~4 hours) but obviously on a train I can read/play on my phone/ do literally anything when I can't in a car. It's also about the same price when you factor in toll roads and gas. Unfortunately, cuz trains are so deprioritized compared to cars, there's only one (1) train to Chicago and one back. The only train to Chicago leaves at nine am. The only train back leaves at 4 pm. It's so frustrating. Last week tonight did an episode on America's tail system relatively recently (tldr: it's real bad y'all) which I highly recommend

About the trains thing.
America used to have a moderate tram system, Ford bought out the companies and had all the tracks tore up so he could sell his cars, because people didn't want to buy cars when they could take a tram instead.
Sounds evil. Btw what’s a tram?
@@gooeydude574 A tram is a streetcar or trolley if you’re american or smth. If you just don’t know it, it’s a rail vehicle similar to a small train but it goes in public urban streets.
@@gooeydude574 think the trolleycars in San Francisco or if you've ever seen Who Framed Roger Rabbit that's set around the era when LA was wiping out the tram system to build highways.
We had a good tram system here in Adelaide, South Australia back in the 50's or so, then they tore up all tracks so all we had left was one line running from the center of the city to the beach at glenelg using 70-80 year old historic tram cars known as "old rattlers" as a tourism thing, then they realised that the transport into the city was borked so they spent billions upgrading that tram line and getting new fancy trams, extended the tram line first down through the center of the city to the main railway station (so you could catch a train into the city then a tram from the station to the other city of the CBD so you didn't have as far to walk), made tram travel within the boundaries of the city free (you only need to pay once you go past the last stop before hitting the suburbs) and then built further extensions to take the tram out to one of the major entertainment venues that's a bit outside the other end of the city, and then another branch going from the railway station up to the two big university campuses in town. All of this took like 20 years in stages and ridiculous amounts of money and it's still only a small tram system compared to what we used to have, and nowhere near as good as the one in Melbourne.
@@Hudson316 I actually thought tram was a misspelling of train
Sure cars give you more freedom to go where you want, when you want, than trains do. The tradeoff is a huge financial burden that sometimes takes away your financial freedom completely...

8:45 - That's only the rails that get used for passengers. There are also many active cargo rails and abandoned rails from the 1800s.
Little extra on the "prehistory is fake because spears can't take down a Uhaul" bit: it wasn't just one spear that took the mammoth down. Most human species - there were multiple - were/are social animals, and so would form groups that would hunt together. Not only that, early humans would do sneaky things such as set traps in ditches or snares, or better yet just drive prey off a cliff like they were a bunch of lemmings. A Uhaul might survive a few spears, but I betcha it'll burst into pieces upon impact with the ground if you drive it off a tall cliff.
Edit: Oh, and also fire. Which most animals are scared of and humans very quickly started using as another tool.
I was gonna say, didn’t they essentially just walk the mammoths to death sometimes? Like, humans are incredibly durable creatures, I thought most of the time we wouldn’t chase after prey, we would just walk until the prey collapsed from exhaustion
Some modern tribes still hunt elephants with spears, or at least did until recently. There's even videos of elephant hunts where a large group of people circle an elephant and throw spears at it until it bleeds out. It's not just an ice age thing
and he's not even right, you can absolutely stop a U-Haul truck with a spear, just aim for the driver or engine... it's almost like... aiming for the brain or heart of a mammoth...
@@lonesome_pearPretty much. Bipedal movement sacrifices speed for better energy efficiency, combine that with the ability to sweat for body temp regulation and you get a hunter built for chasing down an injured animal until either the injury or their depleted energy lets them catch up and finish the job.
Also, they dug deep pits then lit fire behind the herd wich made the prey panic, run and fall into the pit. Then the hunters could use the spears to kill it without being swiped by the trunk.

*Making* a child can technically be free (since all of the costs of feeding both people could possibly stay consistent, and we're assuming a clean pregnancy with no complicaitons or check-up costs), but birthing, at least in the US, is *definitely* not free. That can cost hundreds if not a $1k+ pending how it all goes.
Then you add clothing. Diapers. Bedding. Bathing. Toys. Milk (pump or powder, bottles too).
There's a lot even early on.
Add the tax on your sleep schedule, the loss of work hours taking more money potential away, anything they break, hospital check-ups and vaccinations, schooling, like..
Don't *ever* act like having a kid is free.
Even before they're born you likely have ultra sounds, check-ups, a possible birthing class, any cravings you might try to satiate, heartburn meds, extra food (both from growing a baby and needing more food, and from vomiting due to morning sickness so you have to make up for the lost food), possible ER stay bills (yes, they charge you for existing in a room for a bit)...
And add that you may not have health insurance, or have an unfortunately high co-pay.. it adds up fast even in the first year or two.

The guy from the beginning realizes that women have been working outside for hundreds or thousands of years, oftentimes doing hard labor, right?
Not only were people working outside for the vast majority of human history, they basically lived outside.
Nope. I'm sure he has no idea. For him human history probably starts with victorian middle class or something - I feel like that's where the idea of keeping women inside is coming from 🤷🏼♂️
It was probably earlier than that, like medieval times maybe, but it only really ever applied to noblewomen. Lower/working class women have always had to "work outside like a man"
@@feuerling what do u mean by that, exactly?
like: "Stone age people lived in caves", or "humans were outside, more often than inside a house"?

But sry...that's the archaeology-illness. I even had to categorize the pottery in skyrim. (which rly is possible, many roman-style vase-types)
Typically, early hunters would cause mammoths to panic and then stampede them off cliffs, or they'd ambush them in groups. So, is not like one guy, alone, would throw sharp sticks at them.

To add to 3:06, that started with the classics. Sara Jane? Leela? Romana? Did Metro UK forget all the straight white men who played the Doctor before Jodie Whittaker? Doctor Who has always been incredibly inclusive, they were already breaking social norms when they hired Verity Lambert and Waris Hussein to work on the show at its very beginning as the producer and a director respectively. Not to mention all the incredibly preachy serials from the classic era like Invasion of the Dinosaurs and The Sun Makers. It’s like these people have never watched the show…
Fun thing about the mammoths: we didn't even always hunt them with spears. We chased them with spears...Right over large cliff edges. There are massive mammoth graveyards at the bases of cliffs that were regularly used to drive them over as humans would chase an entire herd off and leave the unused remains to rot.
Spears and fire. Fire usually means wildfire, so animals evolved to gtfo and panic, sometimes over cliffs
Why would they leave it to rot instead of using what they hunted? Do archeologists think it was for sport? Genuine question, not sure if you happen to know :)
@@psychotophatcat more like they were butchered at the base of the cliff, and whatever bones they didn't need right then were left.
@@psychotophatcat it’s possible that there was so many carcasses that there wasn’t enough time to use it all before some began to rot too much
Another factor is persistance hunting, humans comparitively are small, we sweat, we have great endurance. Chase mammoth, it runs a bit and stops to rest, but the hunters are close enough that it doesn't get to, so it runs again, not as far, wash, rinse, repeat until it is overheated and exhausted and easy to kill. Thanks HFY subreddit for teaching me that.
I LITERALLY had a dentist bragging about how much cheaper his Chinese equipment was. The filling he was doing...fell out.
The fact a PROFESSIONAL doesn't yet know that cheap = bad quality is shocking. And concerning!
@@TheLugiaSong I was desperate for someone who would take payments, though I ended up paying for it all at once, but this is the same dentist that nearly KILLED someone. She didn't wake up from anaesthesia, they couldn't wake her up, so they MOVED HER TO A NEARBY HOME and left her there! The people at the house had to call an ambulance! HOW he is even allowed to practice is beyond me, then again, I had a dentist that only lost his license for 5 years in a narcotics scheme.
That is wild!
@@AhNee that dentist should be in prison.
To be fair I feel like that’s the fault of the filling not the equipment
24:45 Also, it would be pretty easy for an experienced hunter to stop a U-Haul truck with a spear. Just go for the tires. Also, for the comparison to be accurate, we have to assume that the U-Haul truck doesn't have very much fuel, and can't maintain 24 mph for very long.

24:04 humans didn't just throw sticks at mammoths, too. Humans have ridiculous amounts of stamina and resilience. IIRC the prevailing theory on how humans hunted animals like mammoths is that they would track them, attack from afar, and when the mammoth ran off, they'd continue tracking it because humans are capable of walking/running for a lot longer than basically most animals, and definitely longer than huge mammals. So at some point the mammoth either bled out with how many wounds it had, or just collapsed of exhaustion and was very easy to kill. Many animals also do not have the ability to realize they need to stop or they will die, horses for example will run until their hearts give out if they are forced to, but a human hunter will just know when to chill and take a rest and also has the ability to figure out where their prey may have gone even if they took a break.
Correct. The whole "there's a snail who can't be stopped following you, and if it touches you, you die," scenario is ultimately just humans conceptualizing the horror of being our own ancient prey.

The guy being told by his mom that he must not care because he isn't breaking down sobbing really hits home.
I'm very much a low emotional display person when it comes to death. I tend to go into protect mode to care for others who are more emotional in their grieving and then grieve on my own later when I can sit and reflect on my own. So, I've been accused of being an ahole or an insensitive prick. When the reality is that I do feel pain and sorrow, im just uncomfortable with displaying it openly.
I do also have some tendencies to respond in ways that can be upsetting for others when it is a family member who dies because I have a very jaded relationship with most of my family. I've experienced so much abuse from most of my own that often makes me question how I survived to adulthood and kind of hindered my ability to form strong bonds with my family members. So there are only like 4 who id probably grieve at all. The rest I'm just sort of indifferent about due to the circumstances.
As a result, I tend to be very reserved and careful with my words and actions around others, and avoid discussing death openly, to limit the risk that I'll upset them. But it is a catch 22 because I'll avoid upsetting them with what I say, but then they think I'm an ahole, unless they know me better, because they assume I don't care about the situation when I really do care. I care about taking care of them and making sure they are okay.
I can relate to this. You feel emotions your own way, no one should have a right to tell you how to feel your feelings. And there’s nothing wrong with not outwardly expressing yourself. I hope that you can either find someone you can be open about your emotions with, or find someone that is accepting of you and your emotions as they are
A dear friend of mine ended his life early and unexpectedly. I was so overwhelmed with planning a funeral, estate business and looking out for his four kids, 12 and younger. I never got a CHANCE to grieve for him until months later. Don’t let anyone tell you how or when to grieve.

"we are the only asplundhs in america" well its a name of swedish origin you doofus. and also the name "katherine asplundh" is the name i, as a swedish person, would pick for a very plain fictional character, like and their teacher was katherine asplundh...

All those things about salaries being too low for cost of life quite often result in some rich business owner saying that no one got rich by paying large wages and selling for cheap; a quick search shows you that some guy called Henry Ford got rich, all his faults aside, by paying his workers the *equivalent to modern $175 an hour,* saving them the need to pay rent, having them work a reasonable amount of hours (no overtime) and selling his products way cheaper then his competitors (who paid way less, had longer working hours and didn't give free housing).

I personally like the new "Progress" flag, and understand why emphasizing the presence of trans and POC members of the LGBT community was desirable. But I would never call the original "Pride" flag noninclusive. The problem was never that the flag wasn't including people, it was that white cis people needed an extra reminder that it did, in fact, include everyone in the community. Preferring the OF flavour Pride flag is fine (unless you're doing it for transphobic and/or racist reasons).
as a cis white male - the elusive supportive or at least does not care type -, I cheered for the rainbow, you know, the literal physical spectrum of light, to include EVERYTHING.
Nowadays I feel kinda bumped that I am not included but instead the whole alphabet and some math signs are.
The moment you start to individually count, you are bound to leave something out. So by arguing to need to add another letter and another color code and to give each strain of spectrum an individual flag, you started to lose the inclusiveness of the rainbow.
But hey, I like me a muscle mommy, so I am not cis anymore. Which color do I get?
@christianstorms3950 The straight flag already exists. Also yes individual identities have flags, but also the whole community has a flag as a whole. It's like saying we shouldn't have state flags, because we already have a flag representing the whole of the USA.
@@christianstorms3950 the rainbow is there for the oppressed. It's not there for entertainment or feeling special.
White cis het men are not oppressed, so you are not individually represented on the flag.
It's a fight for basic human rights, which you with your privilege had from birth. The oppressors are not entitled to be included.
I am sorry that your privilege is not enough and that you are not happy as long as you're not a part of everything, but you can't be offended that you are not on the list of Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Trans, Queer, Intersex, Ace/Aro, Pansexuals or POC, because you are not one of us.

9:39 What gets me about this whole attitude is the fact that the US used to have a world-class nationwide rail network. We didn't settle the west by car, we settled it with the train. Times were that you could get from every state capital to every other state capital (and most other urban centers to boot) by train. This all changed when a lot of track was bulldozed, I repeat, BULLDOZED, for Eisenhower's interstate highway system. After that (and, of course, some good old lobbying by the major players of the automotive industry), car dependency was encouraged, and now commuter rail (especially long-distance commuter rail) is far more limited than air travel or car travel and often more expensive. Make no mistake, this shift towards car dependency was not the consumers changing their preferences, it was targeted advertisement and lobbying changing the consumer's interests for them.
"Life is so easy if you ignore the math"
Lol, this reminded me of a post of someone who claimed they were a single parent who homeschooled their kids, ran their own business for 100+ hours a week, took their kids to events, ran all the errands, a few other things I'm forgetting, and still had time to cook every meal from scratch. Of course with the obligatory "If I can do it anyone can". Except let's see, 24x7=168 hours per week. Minus 100 hours of work is 68 hours. Minus 30 hours of homeschool is 38 hours. Just subtracting work and school leaves only 5.4 hours per day for everything else.

And that's assuming only 100 hours of work, when they listed 100+ and made that plus very obvious to make it clear they often worked more.
Honestly my best guess is they didn't have kids (or they were in public school) and worked closer to 80 hours a week. Because in the comments (I didn't actually interact) when challenged on some of the stuff, like how they taught their kids, what they taught their kids, did their kids get time to socialize outside of an academic setting, did they go to museums, etc, their only replies were to mock people for being so stupid that they'd never heard of homeschooling and suggest they google it, say "I teach them, do you not know what teach means?", or in reference to the museum and zoo type questions, to ask if the person knew what the word home meant, like "It's HOMEschool, it's at HOME, that's what HOME means". Like oh, so what and how you teach your kids is "I teach them"? I'm not a parent, I've never been homeschooled (I do know some people who have, with a variety in quality), but I know significantly more about homeschooling than this person did. They could not elaborate at all about anything to do with how or what they taught. And the whole "homeschool means school at home and nothing else" attitude was just so telling.
@@waffles3629 yeah, that makes sense. They were either the worst homeschooler or just not a homeschooler at all
@@arielruby13 yep, if they had kids who were homeschooled they were not getting an education.
on the topic of the mammoth hunters, humans are persistence hunters. chased the prey at a consistent pace so the prey had no chance to rest until it collapsed from exhaustion.
Yup! Hunters did not run after their prey. They walked until their prey collapsed from exhaustion
That works better for gazelles n shit not mammoths, we more commonly laid traps for mammoths, like scaring them with fire and spears to cause them to fall off of cliffs
I know there is arecheological evidence of running Mammoths off of cliffs, but you still have to get them running in the first place. I believe the assumption is that a team of hunters would simply wound trhre mammoth and get it to run away. As it gets weaker with blood loss, the team keeps harassing it. Without a convenient cliff it just takes longer. Even if it's just bleeding enough to leave a trail you can still just run it down.
But yes, persistence hunters. Look it up.I believe humans are one of the few mammals that can just run indefinitely without everheating.
There is one hypothesis (there are also few different), that our brain started geting bigger through time, to avoid its overheating during hunting
One dude doesn't hunt a mammoth, it's a team effort
There's no end to how pissed off I am about my country's aversion to trains. I did two study abroad programs in university (10 months in Germany and 2 months in Japan). You can imagine how frustrated I am.
13:40 interest rates over 10% are insane. If you offered anything here above 2% people would riot.
23:15 "Learn this while I am still around, my love." What difference does it make that you're still around, *Mom* (or Dad, or Parent) _if you won't lift a finger to help me anyway???_ 🤦🏾♂️
Right? Way to sabotage your kid, par'nt! And they'll only have themselves to blame when the kid loses trust in them. I hope they enjoy whatever crumby facility they end up in when they're too old to care for themselves
42:30 I love that the woman answers the phone to a male voice saying "honey it's me" and immediately assumes it's a call for her husband, like he gets guys calling him all the time and referring to him with terms of endearment
Yeah, like uhhhhhh
41:26 ermm… i do that sometimes because i have temperature issues and chest dysphoria LMAO is it just me that sleeps like that sometimes?
If a tomboy and a femboy Fall in love, is this a full gay relationship? A girl liking a "girly" guy and a guy liking a "masculin" girl? Those people would be very confused
At this point it would actually help humanity if everyone was just bi. 😂
@@Pirates.27 or ace. Thatd work too
@@Jupue or the ultimate combo: panromantic asexual
There is actually a subreddit about that! Tomboy/femboy, that is. I would have to look it up though. Will edit with the name of it
Edit: it is called RollReversal and is for that as well as general switching of traditional roles in a relationship
@@Jupue true!
24:40 humans are also endurance/ persistence hunters, so you can injure the mammoth or uhaul truck in a way that makes it harder to escape or leaves a trail so you can follow it.
41:30 I don’t wear bras……ON A DAILY BASIS? WHEN DO YOU?
The thing about the guy whose mom got angry at him for not greeting properly kind of reminded me of some conversations I had with my mom back in middle school.
Tone issues are a part of my autism, and I was attempting to explain to her that I am often not upset, I just can’t control my tone without serious focus, (and very valiantly not screaming that every time I am not upset and she yells at me about being upset I get much closer to actually being upset, that what sounds like me being upset sounds like a flat tone to me, but she either didn’t believe me or wasn’t listening and it was just so frustrating I gave up and went back to playing video games.
About a week later (i don’t remember how it came up) but I was saying something about how I have to constantly be high energy and jokey and over react with my emotions in conversation and also target my jokes to the specific people I’m with (I didn’t get to the part where I do that to make my emotions readable) and she said “That sounds exhausting.”
And I just stared at her. She was playing WoW or something so I just started at her, mouth gaping, wondering how she wasn’t connecting this to our previous conversation and I then changed the subject I think. I was planning on segwaying into why I’m kinda tired and non-conversational when I come home from school and that it’s actually kind of effortless at this point due to how long I’ve been doing it but doing it all day wears me down a little and I just… gave up.
Years later when I was actually diagnosed with autism, found out previous doctors had suspected I had autism, that she knew about said doctor’s suspicions, and did more research into it I wanted to scream because seriously how did she not put any of these pieces together?
So you were masking, i know how tiring it is, because i had to mask to be less expressivr (im autistic as well, but apparently im over expressive with my emotions and faces so i either learned to mask as a kid and never stopped or i just emote like i can and people i constantly am around understand me. But apparently when i am lost in thought, i mostly feel that i look neutral but others ask me if i am angry. I cant control the tone in my voice, unless i try very very hard, i mostly speak somewhat loud
23:14
*Does not help child*
"Learn this while Im still around"
As opposed to when youre gone, when you will not not help your child???
Youre not parenting right now, what will change when youre gone ?
42:47 well fun fact that did happen to me as a kid, I was ten with my mom at Walmart, and I had a horrible tendency to wander that I still have as a adult, but I just slowly wandered further and further away from my mom, she didn’t realize that I was moving away from her because I was a pretty quiet kid, she still thought I was following her, she buys everything loads the car and starts driving home, she’s half way home before realizing that I wasn’t in the car, and for context I lived pretty far away from town, enough so that a trip into town was a big deal, so she turned around came back to Walmart and their i was flipping through posters not even aware that I had been nearly abandoned for a full hour. To this day she’ll love to boost to others saying“I’ve never forgotten any of my kids” I’m very eager to remind her that she did
My grandmother died earlier this year. I don't have any more grandparents. I never had a huge emotional and visible moment of grief over it, but it still hits me a few times a day at random moments, when something reminds me about her. Just looking at me you wouldn't really know there was anything wrong, but it's a thousand tiny little needles of pain which you can't see.
Damn, I'm sorry to hear about your loss ♥️
Im sorry for your loss.❤
I sympathize, I'm doing the same with parents especially since the last of my Dad's siblings has died so there is no one left to ask questions of or check memories with. I've always liked the way Miss Manners argued for a visible indicator of mourning (the black clothes or armbands that people used to wear). She said it served as a public warning that you were likely to have unusual emotional reactions to everyday stuff - crying for no obvious reason or laughing if reminded of a funny memory.
25:37 So, that's actually somewhat incorrect. The megafauna that evolved during the ice age were uniquely adapted to the colder climates caused by the encroaching ice sheets. When the ice sheets started to recede, causing warmer climates, these megafauna were unable to adapt quickly and started dying off from heatstroke, which was exacerbated by humans hunting them.
Just got jumpscared by Mark Robinson- he was the “when a woman is pregnant it’s not her body anymore” and he’s running for mayor where I am😭 but bro I have to vote him because the other guy is worse 😭
18:18. It gets even better! Apparently someone made a bunch of accounts with every different spelling they could think of, of this woman's married name so she can't use them!
That is beautiful!🤣😂
I live in the U.S. and I would SELL MY FRICKIN SOUL for more passenger trains. No words can describe how much I viscerally HATE driving. I hate other drivers (most of them are way too reckless). I hate paying for the car loan, insurance, oil changes, repairs, replacements, etc. Even though I COULD technically go anywhere, I could never AFFORD to go anywhere! Because of my damn car!!
When my last car was totalled by a surprise deer crossing the highway at night (I was okay, the deer was not) I just threw up my hands and said "screw this, I'll ride the bus to work!". It's not always a super reliable way to get around and I walk a lot of places now, but I'm so much less stressed now than when I owned a car.
I took the bus to work for 2 years. It was an extra 2 hours in the morning and an extra 2 hours at night. But at least I had an excuse why I couldn't be assigned any after hours conversions. The company bought a new building and I was able to take the train for a portion so it cut the commute down to 1 hour each way.
There are two things that keep Americans poor: tobacco and cars. You done good. Welcome out into the functioning, imperfect world.
If you buy an emotional support demon, you can try selling your soul to it and see how it goes!
I agree. Traffic sucks. I've had my driver's license for 10 years and by now I genuinely do not want to own a car anymore. Luckily I live in Europe where we still have good public transport, although that still costs an arm and a leg.
Both my older sister and younger sibling take public transportation and don't have to worry about being chained down by the responsibility of a car. One lives in LA, the other in DC. Having been to both, cars are horrible in cities like that and public transport (or biking) is honestly alot faster than getting stuck in traffic.
Going on a bit of a rant here.
I'd say that i have really good friends, but i still feel unable to open up about how i feel, not to them, not to anyone, sometimes not even to myself, and it's one of those situations where you know subconsciously what you are feeling, but you try to push it away, and ignore it, acting like that will make it not real, and i didn't really go through trauma that caused this i don't think, it's just that my emotional intelligence is really low, not sure why i even said this but there you go uwu
4:35 that pissed me off, as a woman partnered with what I can only describe as a “Giant Teddy Bear” who works two jobs to help us both out financially. He is stressed out a lot of the time and uses gaming to destress, but whenever I have extra money from MY job I’ll usually offer to take him out to dinner. He pays most of the bills and makes me feel secure, it’s literally the least I can do.
An ex of mine told me "real man dont cry".... when my grandpa died
Wonder why he’s an ex 🙄
I'm so, so sorry.
Bruhhhhhh
Well, my grandpa was my whole world and I love him deeply. I just hope (I'm pretty sure he will, because he was like that) me carrying on his legacy in construction makes him proud. If you care for someone enough it's okay to be sad after they die.
Just ask your partner if they expect you to cry when they die, that should solve a lot of problems.
Your ex is not a real woman
