Full Transcription
Thank you. Thank you. okay actually might be tripping out it's not letting me invite anybody as co-host so it tells
it's saying i already have two co-hosts I need to get rid of somebody in order to get another co-host, which I don't have any co-host.
And I don't know if it's letting me invite people up either.
So I'm going to try it again.
So Dolph, let me send you an invite.
Let me.
Oh, let's see if it came up.
Maybe.
Approve.
There you go.
Nope.
Yes, maybe.
Okay.
Having a speaker step one, so.
What's up?
I said having a speaker step one, so that's a start.
Yeah, that's a start.
Yeah, it says you're allowed up to two co-hosts.
To add this person, remove one co-host.
I'm like, there's only four people in this space, so I can't, you know.
I mean, it might be my ultra-ego, you know.
I mean, that's a possibility, you know.
I mean, I do have a couple pronouns.
No, I'm kidding.
I don't really know what you can do like if you restart it and like it'll close
because you don't have a co-host yeah exactly that's that's the part so i can't like jump
out because if i do it doesn't end it so i don't know we'll kind of we'll go from there
see what happens you You know? Yeah.
How are you doing, bro?
I'm doing alright, dude.
You still work?
Yeah, I'm at work for another like four hours.
Oh, damn. So you're like night crew.
I'm a rotating schedule,
so I work from two to two,
which
means I had to bang out all my work before the space for the most part.
I'm in production right now, so I just had to train 10 people on an entire process.
I just got out of the suite, and the suite, I can't bring my phone, but I got it all done.
I might have to go in a little later
to make sure that
everything's wrapped up.
Got it.
But, obviously,
I want to be here, so...
Usually, I'm not in production. I haven't been
in production in
a couple months, so this is
the first week that I'm coming back and I'm in production in like a couple months. This is the first week that
I'm coming back and I'm in production.
Nice.
It's like a
two-week production process.
The majority
of my stuff is this week
where I have to train
everyone. I have to run
a full fermentation
of a bunch of
modified RNA and stuff like that.
I had to grow it all in a fermentation process.
And then, yeah, then I passed it.
I only purified it a bunch of times.
But, yeah, I'm a little bit drained, but'm uh happy to be here you know it was successful for
for the day nice nice nice nice yeah i'm looking to see what i can do with the co-host stuff but
yeah i don't think anybody can do anything
you can pass me pass me host and then I can make it
co-host.
Well, you can.
I'm more than happy to do that, dude.
I don't trip on those kind of things.
I just don't think
you can do that.
I'm not used to
being a host, so
I don't know. I doubt you can pass the host over
i don't think you can you can with the only important deal that you can do is if you have
a co-host the space like on my end i can drop out for like i think under a minute and come back in
like if who kicks me out or whatever i give me a minute to reconnect before it ends the space we have a co-host yo x be tripping dude what's what's its deal
nah mine honestly it's been tripping like almost a year for me like last year about this time my
daughter was actually had to have brain surgery my youngest one and so i basically stayed
off the x for like a week while she was in the hospital like i wasn't going on and all of a sudden
i kind of i get back on and said your account's been suspended and i was like i haven't even been
on on for a week and it took them like two more weeks and they finally got me back in but ever
since i came back in i've been having problems with my X account.
You know, I get kicked out of spaces at times.
I can't come up to spaces.
All kinds of fun stuff.
You know, so it is what it is.
You know, somebody will come up with a different platform.
Yeah, we can probably get by.
It's just I can't support as much as I want to.
Meaning like bringing people up and stuff.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, everybody kind of.
What's up?
You said it should be okay.
Yeah, we should be.
You know, I mean, kind of the gist of it is we you know we've been talking about
getting more you know the word out for salon of debt so we're gonna just start doing some more
spaces and i'm not a techie guy so i i do like to gab you know yap yap yap so figure to say let's
do some spaces and i got the privilege of actually having dope with me.
So dope actually wanted to do it as well.
And I think they coerced him into doing it because he'd probably rather do it with somebody else.
But he stuck with me.
So that's kind of life.
It is what it is.
You know?
Hey, that's me.
What?
You're stuck with me or I'm stuck with you?
No, I was just saying that's me.
No, I'm happy to be here.
Honestly, I'm just like I never am the host.
I'm always the co-host to all these spaces, and I hate being the center of attention.
So I'll be the co-host all day and i like to be the support role even in like video games and shit like i'll i'll be the support role uh beyond like being anything
else i'll i just like supporting you know um but dude like i'm never the host i'm never the host. I'm never, whenever I'm the center of the attention, I get like all nervous and anxious.
And I like,
my brain will turn off.
And then also,
and I like,
don't know how to talk anymore.
And then the space just rocks,
you know,
I just like,
I start glitching out.
It's almost like,
it just,
it just doesn't work.
So huge appreciation for you being the host because
that's what makes us all
makes us all happen you know
yeah I mean look I mean
like I said I can't
support on the tech side so I figured
hey you know if we can get people
in we can you know talk
chop it up a little bit talk about the project
kind of see where everybody's at
answer any questions, you know,
that may arise, you know, give Cage a little hard time.
You know, I think Cage has got this mint button
that he's kind of been hitting left and right.
How many are you at already, like 40?
He's got to be up there.
He's got to be at least, at least, he at least at least he's more than he's more i know
more than 20 for sure yeah i think he just hit 20 for the so he's he's won the shoes and uh or the
custom shoes that are super dope um and the sweatshirt at 10 uh but we got so many legends
in the space right now we should definitely um if anyone wants to come up, they can.
I'm not going to force anyone up.
But I'm minted pretty quick, too.
I just don't like to do it all on the first day.
I have to move funds around and all that stuff.
But I think I just hit like 11 or something today.
So I'm out of here.
Good Lord. I got to pay attention. I've had four requests to come up i gotta stop painting oh crypto stoner tricky buddha intelligent stoner
and then okay there we go you guys all got approved sorry i wasn't paying attention i was
in in a trans listening to dope lovely voice sorry people yeah see that that's what happens is i'm
super distracting and then like i my brain is more like focused when i'm distracting so
i would be pulling up all these people as i was distracting because i like multitasking
but you know somehow you broke the co-host button before
i even got here yeah it was intentional it's like i was going how do i do it and kind of blame it on
x so it's like totally legit now you know the reason why it's okay is because i like to make
fun of you so if you give me a reason to make fun of you dude oh yeah that's you making fun of me bro
please no you're you're a hard person to make fun of so if you give me some ammo dude hell yeah dude
sick i've been on this planet way too damn long to worry about it you know
yeah you know that's why i'm always cool the, or comfortable with doing it because I know you won't, you know, it's out of, out of love.
You know, I like that kind of shit.
Again, I feel like that's a, that's one of the things where I'm, I'm not necessarily nice, but I, I have a lot of love for people.
But that's where it all comes from is like, if I'm not shitting on you, if if i'm not making fun of you then you're probably not like a close friend of mine so yeah well trust me you're
not gonna hurt my inner child so if that's a concern that there's i don't think yeah i can
pretty much say i don't think there's any be on x that can probably hurt my inner child
my wife can but nobody probably that's about the extent of it you know so i'm all right you know well what's going on everybody i want to just shout out the room
dang we got some people what's up crystal crypto stoner intelligence stoner salon
salon of deads tricky buddha i'm tricky buddha's got like i don't know if you guys
are following Tricky.
He's just a legend. I mean, a lot of legends in here, but Tricky cracks me up with all these
accounts I'll pull up on a space with and just kind of go nuts. It's always fun having him around.
Cage, of course. I mean, Papa. Was Mama in here too? Oh, there there she is one of my favorite women in web 3 is mama bear
down there and i got my boy laser from the unruggables he's in here as well you know
shout out every levels clayton he's uh yeah christian what's going on christian i gotta say
that mom and papa might have even ended the space early to come here because they
usually run for like an hour and a half two hours so they do on that run they probably rated came
and rated it for us uh out of love for them or for their love so uh big appreciation on that front
no for sure for sure no they're always, mama and papa are always around supporting. So it's good to have that.
And honestly, you know what?
It's like, I've been kind of hopping in and out of some of the space that the Green Pillow, you know, GPC have been having.
Those are some legends in there, too.
And I love having all those different projects that are in there.
So it's like, it's not an echo chamber.
It's all these different projects coming together supporting each other on different chains it's not it's pretty
cool actually because i mean you know you get people that get certain matches like be an east
maxi or solana maxi or bmb max whatever but being able to come in and kind of get different projects
and get different angles and kind of hop in and you know collaborate and kind of build rapport with different people and i i dig that that's actually what you know that's
how you can make it work you know what's up crypto stoner how are you brother ah enjoying the day
it's been a busy one but it's been an amazing day and yeah we were a few of us were rolling over and hanging out with mama bear and papa bear
amazing vibes over here but it looks like we shifted the energy right into
another vibe so here we are happy to be here supporting deads and you know thank
you guys for starting this this is gonna be really fun as we grow and expand in
in the the project and the mint phases and as we're
going through everything here uh we're excited for episode one with you guys here today so
very excited thank you yeah for sure for sure no i'm glad for everybody pulled up look i mean
we got our call that's one thing i could do is i could do spaces you know and support that way
and you know and you kind of give
a a space a time for people to hop in not necessarily when that when a host they just
want to kind of come in and chop it up shoot the shit whatever even get some you know info
about the deads kind of get it you know stay in the loop on it and hopefully through it people
that are interested in stepping up and kind of doing
spaces and all that gives them an opportunity to kind of come up you know and share a little bit
and kind of build that confidence and to be able to start doing spaces too as well because that's
how i did it as i actually believe it or not i love to yap and talk but i actually don't like
doing it in groups that's just even even on spaces it's not
something like i actually enjoy like i'm not wired that way but i started doing unruggables started
doing space i started hopping in and i did invite me to come up and speak that i don't know once
that led to another and i started hosting some spaces it kind of went from there and built it
from that you know same with laser down there laser aces as well we kind of came up
together with unruggables and we had kind of had the same deal where we're not much into public
speaking now homeboy is going to be speaking and you know nft and what is it nyc nft or whatever
he's actually one of the speakers there he's going to actually be doing it when a shot um
speakers there he's gonna actually be doing it when a shot and i believe he's doing like uh
one of the shops right ace give me a thumbs up bro if that's what i'm if i know what the hell
i'm talking about oh i think he's requesting to come up oh yeah he is there you go because

you're hearing me out there out there and i'm gonna beat you up in real world but i know it's your birthday
so i can't really beat you up but hey much love i can only laser into your soul but yes i will be
speaking and here's a funny part they actually just moved me i got an email they're like you're
speaking on a solo talk so now for some reason i'm not in a group talk anymore i got pushed to the
total talk so here's my short five feet four speaking on stage so hopefully don't make fun of me tricky
if you're there please i'll hide right behind you but i'll do my best to represent everybody so
yes uh new york by born new york city lover and i'm here to rep but yeah salt how are you doing
today what's up no yeah i'm doing good i'm done with work kind of
had one of those days it was actually a good day but we're actually
man looking at making we're having to make some tough decisions right now at work and the owner
of the company actually he's a he's a buddy of mine he inherited the company but i i ended up
starting there when when he when his father was owned it and his father passed away but now we're having to make
some decisions where we might actually have to downsize our staff which is not fun you know for
anybody because a lot of the a lot of the associates have been there for some it's quite
quite some time they've been there a few years and a few years. And we're having to make some tough decisions right now.
And probably by the end of this month,
probably going to have to trim down our workforce about 25%, maybe 30%.
So that's what I get to go into for the next couple of weeks, actually.
So I have to decide who we're going to do it.
And in Californiaia it's a
little different than most states as far as having to make shifts when you want to you know do a
staff reduction it's a little bit more a little bit more tricky out in california than normal
places unfortunately in other states california is really really really employee friendly
so employers are actually really got got to be careful how you do it.
You know, you have to really get involved in the labor law.
Make sure that when you're letting people go, you know, what's acceptable as far as like, you know, we have to do service packages.
So we have to look at that, too.
Like, what's our industry standard for that?
If you do offer that, do you offer it at the front end?
Yeah.
I know.
So, hey, we're giving you a choice.
You know, is it, do we give you six months of severance if you decide to voluntarily resign?
Or do we give you three months if we have to pick the ones?
So that's, that's a tough one to do.
And then I have my issue with it.
A lot of it, unfortunately, is a few of the associates are
related like either their brothers or you know like biologically related or through marriage
so there's a whole other thing that i got to deal with right now so who's related to who if i let go
if i let this person go is it going to affect this other person how's that how's that going to affect their morale and their work and all that so it's a pretty convoluted little deal that I have to
walk walk into and but you know it's life that's kind of you know it's not it wouldn't be the first
time unfortunately I've had to let people go you know but it's never it's never fun because there
is a human side of it you Obviously, I have a family.
I have kids and all that.
So I weigh all that.
I know what the decisions that I make toward these employees is going to affect them.
It's going to affect their family dramatically.
And it's not something that I actually take lightly.
So it actually kind of weighs on me.
But that was kind of what I got hit with this morning.
It's like, hey, we're going to have to make some changes.
Are you ready?
And I was like, oh, shit.
I knew it was coming.
I was just kind of hoping it wouldn't come on a Monday, I guess, maybe.
Let me ease into the week.
But, you know, hit me out of the gate with it.
I can adjust for the rest of the week, I guess.
But that was my day.
Sorry for, you know, ranting on for that.
But that was my reality today, you knowanting on for that but that's gonna that was my reality today you know
hopefully everybody else
god damn it i just looked at the mints and people are some people just minted right now and uh they
they snagged a top hat one that um i've been searching for a top hat one um and i was gonna mint but i was preparing for this space
so i just missed that one so i'm a little jealous but that's okay that's okay wait wait but didn't
you say you can multitask though how can you can mint and still be in the space just this thing
i was i was actually responding and reposting things on from the timetron and
doing that stuff so i was multitasking but i just like got it you know i can't i can't like
quadruple task things just all on my phone but yeah you know i'm not making any excuses i'll
be minting plenty more um but it is uh i do love the top hat ones so i'll be still
how many top ones are there i've only seen like two maybe three that might have been the second
or third one i know christen has one um but i yeah i'll be looking for one i'll be looking for one
that one looks i actually i forgot what i have i gotta look i was like i have a top hat one you know but yeah i know i'm gonna admit some more
later on this week the one that i meant it is a sick one with like a lightsaber and a gold chain
and like some bit viper like type of things or whatever the glasses are. I want a clean one.
So, yeah.
I'll be looking, dude.
I'll be looking.
Yeah.
It's all good.
Oh, damn.
Okay, let's see here.
I don't know if that was laser. He did it because of the one right before.
No, I know.
I don't have a top hat.
Is that me with a top hat with the Solana hat? You just printed one right before. No, I know. I don't have a top hat. Is that me with a top hat,
with the Solana hat?
You just printed one right now?
No, I think you minted the one right before.
So 339 is the one with the Solana hat.
I'm talking about the one with the black top hat one.
I think the one right after you is.
But no.
We'll see.
Maybe I'll get some trades going on.
You never know.
Yeah.
It's a fight, man.
I got blessed today with the ones I got.
So I'm super happy.
I picked up like four today already.
Okay.
There you go.
I'm sure you can work it out.
If somebody has a top hat, you might be able to do a trade later.
You know?
You never know.
I'm always a behind the scenes dude.
See, I come from being a collector and i used to collect
like like so much like honestly i i used to go to festivals all the time so i was a huge collector
of like enamel pins and stuff and all the different like artist pins and this and that
one of my favorite things was one like giving them out to people at festivals and two, like trading them and like trying to collect the best ones and moving them around.
So like any kind of like selling the ones that weren't as good because like the blind
bags are kind of like you get random picks, you know, like you would get excited to see
what you got.
And that's what kind of like grew my love into NFT.
So I'm just like a collector at heart
so um i'm all about being behind the scenes and doing all the stuff in order to like do the
trades and everything so i'm all about the trade so i'm i'm cool with it dude i'm i'm i'll make it
happen you know that's kind of what i'm doing anyways i got a question for you though dope
what was your
favorite music festival i used to work in the industry and do all that type of shit so i'm
just curious to what your favorite festival was that you've attended so i um i mean there's a
bunch of mainstream ones that i kind of didn't go into like one of my first festival that i
actually went to and i'm like like an edm person type of guy, where I kind of started off with more basic stuff, but then I just got weirder and weir, and there's places that I can really dive or get entranced into the music.
So the first festival I went to was Lostlands.
It's like a dubstep dinosaur festival.
Bruh.
Bruh.
Bruh, I went to Lost lands year one dude i yeah no
2017 lost lands was my first festival so it was the first dude holy shit bro okay
to put things into perspective for people who don't go to festivals
imagine you've never been to a festival before and you walk through a gate and there's hundreds
and thousands of people at this one festival.
That's what this man got to experience for his first festival.
That's awesome, bro.
Dude, it was fucking wild.
And like I did the whole camping thing and then I proceeded to go like the next seven years in a row or whatever.
fucking like every year to lost lands and then i started like doubling up and then doing a thing
Fucking like every year to Lost Lands.
where i went like the six or seven days of lost lands and that's in ohio so legend valley ohio
and then i would go from there and drive down to wakon fest in arkansas
me too i literally did that three years in a row, bro.
Yeah, so that's what I would do.
And then I'm an East Coast person. So I would literally drive all the way back across the country and then end up in either Evolutions or another festival in the area just to end off the month-long festival journey.
But, dude, I would go all over the country doing
festivals and i only took the last year or two off because uh i kind of had a falling out with
my friend group but i dude i would be running around like going from festival to festival and
going to as many as i can so like lost lands has is a huge one in my heart uh i think the vibe is really good
at like electric force and a few other ones and um and then i and then i go to a bunch of small
ones and those are like the best vibes because dude yeah bro i was just about to say so i i did
my fair share for like 10 years of just the big mainstream festivals every single one i could hit
bro and then i'm not gonna
lie to you bro i remember this one year i met up with this group of people and it's like uh it's
all underground shit like underground sound systems music all that i got in touch with these
people when i started going to these like underground events bro and i'm not gonna lie i
had more fun going to those than i did mainstream and here's why when I started working in the underground
scene I found the most talent I found the biggest sound system I found the nicest but I found
I found everything I was looking for within a smaller community than the mainstream and that's
why I just like I've always gave people who are quote-unquote underground or the underdogs a chance
because I've seen the most talent and underground that i have seen
in mainstream all my life so i'm just stoked to hear that we kind of live this almost the same
life and experience a lot of the same things man dude it's funny because i like never get to talk
about that side because whenever i bring up festivals everyone's like oh okeechobee or like
nah bro that the vibes are cool there bro but these underground fest if you can get into an underground
festival or a show i'm telling you you'll feel so comfortable so loved and you'll you'll like
know people better because how small it is i don't know what it is about it bro it's just
that's also that's what got me into making music as well i've been i've been producing for a while
now and getting to know people in the underground scene and having them actually give time to teach
you things and like little tricks and this and that that people in the mainstream wouldn't even care
to tell you about you know what i mean it's a completely different vibe at the smaller ones
indeed i got into like the real weird music so i like would always just fuck with i know like all
the artists i used to not produce uh but i would like do a ton of djing because i actually know a lot of the
um like even vjs and stuff i would i would have so many homies like in the industry and
like one of one of the vjs i know would like come over uh to my lake house and he would like
project and like map out the entire back of the house and then i would have like after vibes dude the after vibes
of those are crazy dude yeah and like i i dated some chick that like dated lucas strangers so i
like they were like cool afterwards so i would like uh-huh bro i had an ex my ex-girlfriend
when you said date excision so i got into lost lands year one for free dude that's that's what i'm saying is like i would also be a big part of like a lot of
photographers so i'd always get behind the the like i didn't do photography but i like knew
knew so many people in this space so i would run once you know those people you're in
yeah so i i have a bunch of homies that are DJs I would like literally get to meet all the ones that I would like fanboy over and
Do the decisions like someone like it's funny because
If you think of dubstep everyone's like, oh, that's like such intense people whatever but like gonna watch
Forms of dubstep for example. So dubstep originated from Bruce reggae music
So once it originated from ruth reggae music it was
dubstep actually used to be very subtle and comprehensible and it wasn't till skrillex dropped
that scary monsters and nice spirits track years ago after that is when dubstep really started
getting crazy yeah dude and like uh dude for some reason i don't know if it's just because it was my first festival but the the vibes and like people at lost lands dude they're like the nicest people you'll meet everyone's
like all calmed down because they've let out all their energy and they're just like being their
primal selves like giving out dinos and like just being like cavemen and just like dude it's the most the funniest thing and i'm a
very like like autistic person that like loves uh pebbling and just like giving giving people a
bunch of knickknacks and like all this random shit i would like that's like my favorite thing
doing like going and i would have my yeah my so much cool shit my art collection since i started
getting into like
raving and all that like dude it's it's crazy bro like i got artwork from people that are hanging
up on my walls that i probably never see again and like just like like you said pins dude so i
remember the last pin i got i was at infrasound also my favorite festival in the whole world's
infrasound bro i got this i got this dope ass fucking tipper pen it's
there's only like five of them ever made bro and i got one and it was gifted to me at three in the
morning at like a fucking uh what do they call them silent disco stages where you put on the
headphones there's thousands yeah yeah dude so if you ever get a chance to look in a tipper detox
unit and like feel dude i promise you'll love that music not it I'm fucking did all that shit did it again. I got super weird with it. Tipper was a huge one was a huge one for me
Um, yeah, I saw a tipper at Red Rocks and shit like that
Like
Dude, you know, he's doing his last show in a couple months
Oh, no way dude. I've been a little out of the loop. So I didn't know he's doing his last show in a couple months in a couple months oh no way dude i've been a little out of the loop so i didn't know he was like doing an ending one but dude even
detox unit dude i'm pretty sure he might have been oh my god bro this might be i'm like i'm on dom
i'm on the dom's page i can't say too much anyway last time i saw detox unit was in michigan right
so is that a random gymnasium i don't know if anyone's everyone's been in a gymnasium where all the floors are wood now imagine you throw a pair of fucking function ones like a pair of function
ones in there bro my my the eye my eyeballs were rattling out of my sockets bro that's how loud
the bass was dude i have never experienced a more like intrusive shows i did for detox there was only 50 people there for detox unit like that's crazy dude i love that because like a lot of those types of like
trippy like like down and dirty artists they like to have the smaller crowds because it's so intimate
and it's so like i don't know it's it's it's it's really cool what they can do with sound and it's really cool what they can do with sound. I've learned a lot about, like, kind of,
I know it sounds, like, crazy,
but, like, the cult kind of energy
and, like, actually understanding the harmonic frequencies
of, like, what music can do for healing
and all that kind of stuff.
So I always preach that stuff,
and I'm so about it,
but I always get looked at a weird way whenever i
dive too deep no i don't do because i i did too and i was kind of the same spot because everyone
in my town like it's kind of not really a big thing but like when i first got into it started
doing shows and everything around here it wasn't very popular and i would remember telling people
about it and i'd get the same exact look or energy but that's kind of weird bro you're getting too
far into i'm like no you just haven't experienced this shit i've experienced especially you know
sometimes these things are floating around you take them you start to realize some things about
music and everything around it as one but no i totally get it dude and it's sometimes it is
kind of hard to talk about in some spaces but when you get a chance to do it bro floor is yours
and dude i i always do little things where like no one really notices it but like i have my
hand in a lot of collections and i like nudge things a different way so if you notice these
like little like uh brain seeds that's from ganja white knight and like shit like that and i just
have like a god yeah i love the little the little wubs and the wobbles you know i liked all that bro so you
so you've known gone here for a minute you remember that that 2017 set that he had bro that
was that was like his old sound design was so good but like it's still crazy to think about
how long ago it was you go back and listen to it you're like bro this could have came out like last
week dude that was like before i even like could really even do videos on my phone.
So I remember having a bunch of 2017 videos of the visual stuff on Snapchat of the 10-second video max thing.
Yeah, dude, yeah.
And then just crappy quality, but dude, I got down.
It's just everything's rattling that's it yeah everything's
it can't handle any of the the the any of the uh base and dude and i was like in the little
the little side cave or the the the cave or whatever the cave of souls or whatever at lost
land so dude yes i remember that yep yeah so i feel bad taking the
whole space up about this dude but i'm definitely gonna follow you on this and silky's account too
we're definitely gonna chop it up later yeah we can move on but again i never get it like
whenever i'm like oh yeah like like edm that's like where i start because no one knows what i'm
talking about if i fucking say anything else because otherwise if you go any
deeper it's like all right this guy's a fucking i have no idea what he's talking about but yeah so
bro whenever whenever i'm like yeah edm and then they're like oh i like edm too and then i'm like
well how but you're like no bro you don't understand what flavor yeah like all right so uh
yeah much love much but yeah i feel the same, I feel the same way. I feel the same way. We can get back to the other stuff.
So, take it away, bro.
Take it away.
Yeah, I turned into, like, a 17-minute Lost Lands rant.
Yeah.
Much love, much love.
I have no idea what the hell you guys are talking about.
So, just kind of, so.
Just music, dude.
Just music.
Yeah, you lost me at, you know you'd like I go to shows or whatever
Once you guys started yapping that I can't honestly I just let you run with it because I you got so excited like like
Dope, you know, I've been around dope a bit now, you know different space. I like so when he starts like really rambling
Then you know, you should let him go because he's got he's excited
He's gotten to his own. It's something that really he gets his blood flowing. So I should let him go because he's got he's excited. He's gotten to his own It's something that really he gets his blood flowing so I should let him go with it man. It's all good
Honestly, dude, that's huge respect because that's one thing about like my tism is like I have special interests
and if I get to talk about my special interests, I'll like keep going but if I feel like
People are annoyed and they they want to or they do cut me off and i feel like
my i can't slow down quick enough so no i appreciate you giving me that runway a little bit
and uh yeah it's just music is one of the one of the loves of my life and that that's where a lot
of the collecting aspect came in so i have like literally hundreds of pins that i'm like slowly
kind of selling to kind of like buy
some nfts but that's like i have such a big collection that it's like barely denting that
so well no every collection different stuff that's the reality like me i actually i i i have a
i'm i used not anymore i actually just quit smoking about six weeks ago well i used to
actually collect cigars so i have actually pretty decent cigar collection i'm actually gonna now i'm hitting up my buddies
going okay now it's time for you guys to buy this off me i'm like i quit i quit on april 21st i quit
smoking okay i was smoking regular stuff plus cigars so i'm like i'm at i made a promise to my oldest daughter that i'd quit smoking by when i
turned by time i turned 54 i turned 54 in april so i quit four days before i turned 54 i quit smoking
congratulations brother you know so all of it so now it's actually i get i get the collection
side of it i i just i don't get that excited about my cigars though there you go and uh shout out
to laser for expanding my collection making my my pfp into something lasered because i'm just seeing
that comment now but that's uh that's some crazy i love that yeah and you guys in the space too if
you want anything like lasered youered, you know, laser AC.
Is he still in here?
No, he might have dipped out.
No, he dropped down just because he's doing some.
Oh, no, here he is.
He's still here.
Well, damn it, because he changes his PFP, like, freaking four or five times in his space.
I had to look for him again.
You know, so.
He's being a homie and supporting the thing.
I'm going to give it out to Tricky, because I keep wanting to give him a high five, but he has his hand.
Okay, what's up, Tricky?
It's Tricky Buddha from DeFi Space Donkeys.
Powered by weed on Solana.
Get yourself a bag of weed.
What's up, guys?
What's going on, fam?
I wanted to say to Lazer.
Well, I didn't sign up for a speaking spot
But I'm going to be at the event
Because I've been giving tickets
So I mean
I don't like to schedule time on stage
Because it stresses me out
Knowing I have to do it
You know what I mean
It's not fun
So I wouldn't sign up
But hey man
I could just bomb the stage for you.
We could do something.
I don't know.
We've got to talk about it on the back end.
I'm sure he'd be more than welcome to do that one.
I could give him an intro or set him up.
It would be more fun that way.
Well, it depends how tall you are because if you're tall,
then he can't be around you because if he's 5'4", then he needs to be the main person on stage.
Maybe if you keep your shoes off, it might work out.
But it's usually the comparison of size that makes it difficult.
Because I'm 6'5", so I'm always conscious about not trying to make people look ridiculous.
I'll just get, like, I'll kind of bend my knees a little bit, and I won't gel my hair up.
I'm a huge sloucher.
I'm a huge sloucher for that reason.
Wow.
Wow. Wow.
There we go.
Sorry, I thought I was on mute for a second.
Somebody just did something stupid by me.
That's what I was wanting.
So I thought I was on mute.
My apologies.
I thought I had the mic off.
No, no, no, no.
You know.
Idiot.
That's it. It is what it is what they do around you dude
blow up their spot what they do it's all it's all good dude
oh yeah i'll tell you what i'm sitting in my car because sometimes at my at my house for some odd reason i'm my my my house is located i must be at the end of the line for verizon
that's who my carrier is so my reception at my house actually sucks sometimes so i actually have
to leave to do a space well i'm around the corner from my place there's a strip mall and some dude
literally just parked his car got out of his car and just took a piss like three cars over from me
and i was like dude what like what there's bathrooms around here it's a strip mall there's businesses that you can go in and hit
them up but probably he had to go yeah how are you gonna be around a strip mall without stripping
dude i think he was doing the right thing yeah right you know i you you would say something like
that you know yeah you're the one taking a peek, dude. I wouldn't have noticed.
A business park. There you go.
You're looking around
trying to find some D
and it's like, dude, that's on you.
He's just doing his thing.
Hey, well, slow your roll, bro.
Roll slow, dude.
Yeah.
Salt does
swing that way, bro. I'm not a switch hitter you know no there's
no switch hitting here no all right dude it looks like you're uh you're a little curious
it's all good yeah that's yeah there you go
what's up intelligence stoner
what's up intelligent stoner
yo that's actually
me with another
I know
holy shit
that's yours
that is
genius pothead
that's Nick
he's actually the founder of
Weedcoin
but we are delegates on the account, me and Tricky and Rick are partners in helping grow the Weed meme coin as well.
So we use that account to help.
Including my delegates, I have 12, no, 13 now.
No, you do not.
Yeah, I do.
But one time I popped up as a We god and and my hand went up and I
was like wait a minute so I jumped out and jumped back in with a different
profile you were in it when you had your head and how you're both at the same
time in the room because I jumped in immediately had the microphone I was
like what the hell happened you just like you jump on an account and I'm
already in it and you're just talking in a space
that you didn't know you were getting into don't happen if we both unmuted and talked at the same
time we're gonna have to test that we could do a double tricky i could come in i could come in for
you and you could come in for me that would be all right we're gonna confuse some people and have fun with that but i have fun with that as it is with like 12 or 13 accounts
because what i don't use very much but 12 accounts that i could come into a room with and go on stage
so i have to do my intro every time before i talk i can't you know what i mean i don't talk until i
do my intro so after about the third or fourth one most people start to be like don't give him a mic
we call it Tricky's 2FA because if you guys
ever have Tricky in one of your
spaces you know just some security
info for y'all
if you ever see Tricky's account come up on a stage
and he does not do that intro
you need to boot him off the stage
because that's not Tricky that's what we always say
that's true he does do that intro every time he gets on a stage.
Yes.
Absolutely does that.
I've heard him numerous times.
Yeah.
No, I never missed it.
I'm on year four.
I'll do it in person sometimes.
That's funny.
I'm pretty sure I got blessed with a triple tricky like
intro or something
where you had three accounts
so you get the echo effect
yeah
I tried four
four doesn't really make it any better
two or three sounds really good though
yeah
also thanks to the legends uh we uh
officially passed 10 on salon of deads we are back on the trending or on the the trending uh
projects again um so definitely uh thank you guys for helping keep us boosted on here it you know
i'm seeing i like seeing us stay in that tranny but i saw us pop
back in there after whoever got the oh wait somebody in here got the blue flames uh on the
hair it was clayton clayton posted it so thank you for mint now on the blue fire uh hair is is
fire that's awesome that reminds me of like 80s or whatever from hercules the fucking blue fire guy dude
i don't know i don't know if that's that's what it's from but it's so dope we'll have to ask pup
we'll make a q a for pup of things that we think of when we see uh what he might have been referencing
because i felt the same thing and that movie is one of my favorites I don't know how many y'all have seen
Hercules but that is like the the um Hades and that is hilarious that the movie is so good
yeah back even on the original one dude that's the one I like grew up with so with the titans
and the all that kind of shit dude that's such a good fucking movie i had this comic series
uh when i was a kid and it was hercules but it was like uh almost realistic art but still comic
if that makes sense it just was like very realistic uh looking but it was like a collection
of each book was one of the gods or the monsters that hercules fought and they were
like super detailed and super good i don't have them anymore but they were like one of the coolest
reads i had ever had dude for some reason i still go back to like having like memories of nostalgia
for certain random comparisons like the the hydra one where they're
he's cutting off the head and then more grow back i always think of that i'm like damn dude that's
like such a cool like metaphorical the thing about like uh what's it called the fucking
mythology of of that kind of stuff is like, everything has, is there for a like lesson or like kind of a purpose and the different,
all that kind of stuff.
So it's cool to kind of like think back and look back at all that type of
things that actually pop back up in my head as like memories to be like,
oh, that's actually pretty relatable now that I think about it.
Yeah. And a lot of that stuff comes from history
or, you know, his story. But, you know, it's all historical stuff. Not historical, you know,
some of it's obviously mythological, but, you know, for a lot of people that may be into like
spirit world or reincarnations, dimensional things like, you know, That's why that feels like a message type slash lesson,
in my opinion, is because that's what those were. And in a timeline where those exist or happened,
it's a lesson to be learned. And so it reminds you in this world of something to keep pushing
through. Like you said, with the heads getting cut off, but they grow back, you know, it always reminds me that, you know, no matter how many times I
trip, stumble, fall, fail, I just keep going. I kind of keep growing back too, but you grow back
stronger, double the heads, things like that. It's, you know, when you look into that stuff
more than just the story, it kind of brings more to it, you know, it's cool. Yeah. I even like took
Latin just to be like like to learn more about
that and my latin teacher like in school was like barely did any of the land stuff she just like was
the biggest sweetheart and we would listen to like venus and blue jeans and then we would talk about
mythology and shit like that and that was a class and i was like dude this is a sick language because
class and i was like dude this is a sick language because it's like i don't know i was like i
understand this more than like uh actual languages and then i would also understand root words and
stuff for sats and all that bullshit but i just i was a huge fan of mythology and i actually
apply that stuff to my life all the time because i like understand that like things are just stories
but there's a reason for kind of stories and i understand like more than kind of i even like
it's almost more relatable than fucking history type of stuff anyway so for me it's like right
in my alley and like i'm all about understanding the world from different lenses and perspectives and
and different energies and stuff like that so i'm uh i'm all about that kind of shit so
bro i didn't know that i i love that
i was just saying we should definitely talk. I figured it all out.
No big deal, but if you want to talk about it sometime, we could.
Yeah, no.
I'm someone that will dive deep into that kind of stuff.
So, dude, I
just was almost about to ramble on
for a bunch and then
get into it. But no, I appreciate that.
We'll talk soon.
Yeah, I'll just say
we are the aliens.
Constructed a stardust.
Yeah, sorry.
My work actually
came up and asked me something, so
sorry for that. I didn I hear what you said, but
yeah, let's
definitely, we can dive deeper into that.
I'll be doing
fucking South Spaces a bunch, so
I know you're
on Thursday,
like, you know, between 4 and 6,
we could just do, like, one of those spaces
on, like,
you know, astrophysics
yeah why not
I've been diving actually
into a whole bunch of
like into
a crazy kind of
world of science with
quantum physics and the
different stuff for actually
understanding like how proteins interaction
and molecules and creating cures for stuff so i can't really talk too much about that because
it's like kind of classified but i like yeah i am not an idiot when it comes like i'm not just
a crazy conspiracy person so i actually have a lot of background, actual connectivity with the real world and not just being like, oh, this is maybe possible.
But I actually have actual fundamental understandings.
You're not just spouting a theory.
It's actually a grounded theory that's maybe even been proven.
It's actually a grounded theory that maybe you've been proven.
Like shit that is being figured out beyond our comprehension that is actually like real physics.
We just haven't had the computational availability to actually run through it.
So I actually have a shit ton to add about all this stuff
But I've also done my fair share of like I started super
Like my mom was a math teacher and earth and space science teacher
So like but really young I was like really knowledgeable about the basic stuff
but when before
Like heist before before yeah before middle school i was helping her write
the tests and like uh you know help grade tests uh for her seventh grade class so i did that's
sick one one year i was just gonna one year i made a test and i took it i mean i made the test i took
it if i felt like it was reasonable i knew all the answers right um and she gave it to the class and
the highest grade was a C.
And she failed most of the class.
She's like, I can't do this.
Like, I don't know.
Your test was just too hard.
Dude, that's so funny.
Because I had, like, a similar type of brain where I was always, like, insanely good at math.
But I also needed something to maintain my focus.
So I combined that with science.
And I always said that I could be passionate about science,
but I'm more like well-versed in math because it's very logical,
which then I figured out that like the way that I focus is the combination of
something interesting, urgency, something novel.
It's like a neurodivergent add
aspect that a lot of us possess and where you can hyper focus on things that you're into
but if you're not like interested in it it's your mind is just like you're on to the next subject
tricky that's funny that's exactly how i am because i just noticed that again recently about
my about myself
So I stopped making music for a while because I had a wife thing to take care of
I listen to this one specific tune on SoundCloud for some random artists in the middle of nowhere, right?
And it just gave me that urge and bro
I sat on my computer for the past three days for probably over 15 hours working on one song and I finished it
And now I got like that drive back so i definitely feel that uh i'm actually huge into psychology and i had to
figure out how my brain worked in the last like bunch of years and uh i like started uh doing
this thing like i started mind mapping it's kind of like journaling but then like it's less
linear so it's just like branched off in a bajillion different directions so i i figured out
how my brain worked and i figured out why i like certain things and it's a very like monotropic
way of thinking where a lot of people like to bounce around and have a bunch of different
focuses where i will go from special interest to special interest, but I'll dive in like super intensely to that special interest
and get super focused on it and then go all the way through to the end.
And then like, once that's complete, I'll go into the next one, but that's just the
maintaining of the novel aspect of focus.
But the, the interest is the special interest.
You can have the urgency, which is
where the procrastination comes in. And then the fourth pillar of focus is challenge.
So you can go through something that's challenging for a while. And then urgency is kind of like
short-lived a little bit, and it's hard to maintain. And then the novel aspect is something having to be new.
That you end up running through really quickly.
So that's why the pillar of interest
or special interest or passion,
that's where it holds the focus the longest.
But the more pillars you have,
the more suited you are to stay focused
on that topic or idea and stuff like that.
So I have like something I've created as a special interest is, well, I was forced to
have people as a special interest in order to be a little more normal because I didn't
understand my neurodivergence till like two or three years ago like and that's like
fucking when i hit 30 years old or some shit so like i um it took me a while to figure that out
and then i pieced all the like i like went into hermit mode and then like literally spent all
day every day trying to figure out psychology and understand it fully and understand
the double empathy problem where the way I communicate is so much different than other
people and why that was causing problems and how I was so misunderstood because of it and
misinterpreted. So now I work a lot on translating uh how i communicate into the different branches
of understanding but what i've also learned is that most people have converted the way that
they communicate into more of an holistic way even though their brain is neurodivergent but
based on like trauma and stuff like that growing up they've they've had to shift so
even when i find someone like-minded they're still pointing out things they're like you're doing this
wrong you're doing this wrong like i don't understand you in this it's like no well like
i've reverted back to my authentic self and i want to show you that you're allowed to do that
because i'm tired of being a leaky battery and having to translate everything I say. So I call that triple empathy, the triple empathy problem, because it's like,
it's a double empathy problem, but another step further based on the world not understanding that
there's neurodiversity and it's not taught, it's not understood.
Communication is just about getting your message
across right so you you tailor it for the individual um and knowing the psychology
behind it really really helps but everyone has a different attention span and interest and all that
stuff right so like that's why one thing i'm really curious i like to learn that keeps me
like wanting to go forward um and once I figured out how my brain worked,
I totally got rid of my depression and my anxiety,
which is amazing.
Well, not my depression, but the anxiety, definitely.
I'm working on it.
It's hard, but you can totally rewire your brain
once you figure out how you learn
and how your brain works.
Then you can like start to break it down
and really do those like crazy things.
It's actually amazing.
But you have to figure out how your brain works first. And nobody really knows how. to break it down and really do those like crazy things it's actually amazing uh but you know you
have to figure out how your brain works first and nobody really knows how i got all of this health
issues and i was so screwed with like the the crohn's and everything i just like i i had to
fucking fix it like i had to do something so i'm gonna push over to the crypto center because i
know he's end up but i just want to say that a lot of that is based off of having to mask uh most of your life and what happens is when you mask you're in a state of
fight or flight and that what that's a constant state of stress because it's not just masking
it's camouflaging and if you do it wrong you get in trouble for it and then people get pissed at
you so it's literally a fight or flight response. And that stress ends up building up
cortisol in your body. And that just completely wrecks your immune system. And it causes a cascade
of problems that will develop into worse and worse problems your whole life. So the first step is
actually understanding yourself, healing some of that trauma that you've probably acquired, the complex PTSD, which is not something
because of something someone did, but it all gets back to the double empathy problem where,
say, you put a six on a piece on the table, and you have one side looking at a six and the other
person looking at a nine. If you see one side of the number and the other person sees the other but they're always correct and you're always wrong then you end up learning that you have to
understand what the other person's looking at and that's where a lot of the pattern recognition
ability comes in to understand that but that causes you to not listen to what your body is telling you and that creates introspection
where you do not understand or you don't hear what your body is telling you anymore.
And that is where a lot of the health issues come from and the lack of processing of various
things because, again, I could talk about this forever but it's
that's where a lot of the um a lot of the adhd autism side of things you the neurodiversity
which i think those words are demonized which is why i try to stay away from them that's why i use
monotropic because not a lot of people know what that means but that's basically what it is uh that
is like you're not like allowed to do it and that's where
a lot of the health issues come up and that's where i try to have people heal from because that's
a lot of people who struggle with that it's not because it's a disability it's because they're
living in a society that's not made for that and um once you learn to kind of un like heal that and then get back to your roots and understand
and be okay with your authentic self that's where a lot of the healing comes in and that's where
a lot of uh kind of you can actually reach your full potential and all that kind of shit i've
lost my train of thought like three different times but hey i may go to cryptos owner because
yeah no i'm honestly i'm gonna keep it on the same topic
i just wanted to hop in because and you said a lot of things i was actually gonna say
you know a lot of this goes back to mental health and that balance and you know i'm someone that
came from a very uh aggressive uh personality uh when i, very angry, things like that. And, you know,
what you're explaining, especially on the psychology side, it does at least to like,
basically, people that had experienced trauma or different neglects, things like that,
which kind of leads into, you know, the healing part being able to, you know, for me, I call it
shadow work, but doing your shadow work, understanding your shadows, sitting with yourself in meditation and kind of asking yourself questions, checking in on yourself.
All of that stuff leads to some of that understanding of yourself, finding that inner peace, that inner balance, that healing, which is so important.
My wife, she heals and she had a very traumatic upbringing. So she
has a lot of releasing and healing. And so we're constantly focusing on that and it changes her,
her moods have changed. And, you know, our, our, as we both have healed and released our own
things, our companionship and relationship has, has grown and expanded. And then, you know,
relationship has grown and expanded. And then, you know, I love that you're into all that dope
as well, the learning about everything. Because same thing with me, as I was healing,
I needed to learn about the mind, why I wasn't motivated anymore, things like that. And that
led me into neuroscience, which is what I look into, I wouldn't say study, but I do a lot of research
on neuroscience and neuroplasticity of the mind and how we deplete that. And a lot of those things
also lead to those same health or all of it intertwines, right? And that's the craziest
part is, as we learn all of these different things about our minds, about how to heal,
all of these different things about our minds, about how to heal, how to grow, just to understand
yourself. It's such a, we live in a society, like you said, that doesn't give us the space
to really have that time to find yourself, to have peace. You know, you got to go, go, go.
And so, but at the same time, like we do have passions that we want to go, go, go.
So there's just so much balance that goes into it. I love that we're talking about this today. I'm so grateful for the connectivity
and the information that's available now where you can actually figure out how your brain works
because we're, we're, we're studying it. We're actually learning about like in the future,
we'll test babies with genetics and they, they won't have to just suffer their whole lives or
go through a 10 year, 15 year downward spiral and spiral in the middle of their life for no reason.
We could prevent that shit.
I had to get testing done in order to find out a lot of my stuff with my gastro stuff, and I ended up going all the way into neuroscience and stuff like that.
Now I know more about a lot of these things than most of the specialty doctors even.
And so it's just been really hard to get good information once you get those higher points but like 100 years ago they were
screwed man totally screwed dude up until 2013 it wasn't allowed to have the the neurodiversity of
being autistic and having adhd together so it was originally called Asperger's,
but then they just figured out that you could have both,
and then they turned that into being on a spectrum.
And now what I figured out that there's basically
a neurodivergent umbrella of all of it,
and it kind of is just all demonized
because it allows you to be someone who questions
and thinks differently and all that stuff like that.
But I forget what I was about to say.
But I – so the – one of the – dude, like everything is – I lost my train of thought.
But I –
You know, I like to do – I keep a piece of paper next to me, especially if I'm in multiple spaces, which I may or may not be in now.
But that way you can write down a keyword and do what's called an extemporaneous speech, where instead of writing down a whole speech, you just write a word that means a sentence.
But that's enough to jog your memory down the whole fucking thing.
So you probably could write down five words and know how to talk for an hour.
hour so dude that's that's something that is very adhd too that's comparative to basically
So, dude, that's something that is very ADHD, too.
evolving as like a hunter and uh like a hunter gatherer and that's what like adhd and like that's
why that's like half of the neurodiversity and that's because uh you pick up things you're always
highly alert and highly sensitive when it comes to sounds and stuff like that. And it has a different memory system.
So it's literally based on a different memory.
And that's why I can't just generate thought and be the start of a conversation.
But I'm someone that will know where I am because my memory is triggered by a prompt.
triggered by a prompt. So if I get a prompt or something to start or like a seed or see something,
that's why ADHD communication is a back and forth of, oh, this reminds me of this. This
reminds me of that. This reminds me of this. So it's literally one of the reasons why you'll like
forget something that you go into a different room and you have to backtrack into the other room and then you remember it's because of that seating thing and that's just a different
neurological so knowing that about yourself right is huge because not only will it help you
not forget things that you're we're going to say but it'll help you keep the conversation on track
when you have like a meeting or you're something that's supposed to be pointed towards something
right um and that's all it be pointed towards something, right?
And that's all it is, is just figure out how to do that with your brain type and then function in the standard of society or whoever you're working with. And I ultimately conversation completely based on the vocabulary and the situation.
And also, I kind of remember what I was going to say, but basically it's uh like my name my name is based on dopamine
that's like where it comes from is dope at memes like that's dopamine um and so the the idea that
is like for me having this type of brain i have a very like low threshold and a very depleted dopamine system. So I either will search for
dopamine to try to achieve the focus and basically power that other people have in terms of getting
certain things done. Because in the society, I'm forced to do things beyond my willpower and willpower is a finite resource.
So that's where I have to dopamine hunt in order to do things that my brain does not want to do because it's actually on that four-tier system of the focus, which is the challenge,
novelty, interest, and urgency. If it doesn't have that, I'm digging into this willpower
well that is easily depleted, which is what ADHD stands for. It's like that not having the dopamine
and it's like a distractibility thing because
if you don't have that focus on the thing that you're being told that you have to do
then you have to literally use up an entire spoon or uh uh like a gasket of energy that is beyond
what you are like made or designed to do so i'm i've always been a dopamine hunter i love that you
bought up spoon theory yeah i'm huge on that and i have to explain that to fucking so many people
and like my work and i very rarely do people survive in this work world with my type of brain and it's i've had to be smart enough to overcome the fucking the whole
system of needing to do and go into meetings to talk about meetings to set up a meeting in order
to have a conversation about the meeting that we have and all that's just nonsense to me i just like
to get the thing done i like to do the stuff and uh i can't focus on talking about shit when we're
like i already know what we have to do but anyways so i and dude the the having to do like oh you do
this amount of work and then you go and have like food with all the people and have to interact and
be social and be human and then go and do this task and then that task
i use spoons up way too quickly so i have to bundle my spoons and make sure all my tasks are
uh created in a way of being monotropic which is like gaining momentum into my focus and then
like transitioning out of that focus.
If I can't do that, that's when I turn into a leaky battery.
That's why I'm so heavy on understanding your brain and the monotropic nature of it.
Jesus Christ.
You have an autoimmune disease too?
Yeah, hypothyroidism and other shit, dude.
I've had my whole body shut down.
And I've actually, my whole body's, dude, even at a young age, dude,
I think I was going like D1 football.
And then also my whole body started fighting itself.
And I went to the hospital.
They didn't know what was like wrong with me.
So I was being tested on for like weeks at a time as like
d1 recruits were coming to watch me play and i was like oh yeah i'm a little sick but uh basically
my whole body shut down and there was like a staph infection that my body got confused and started
just fighting itself instead of like fighting the problem and that that made me unable to move any
part of my body and i was fascinated with that and that's
what got me into biology and then i like i i was told that i would never be able to play again and
i was like fuck you and then i i came back to the end of the year and then got recruited d2
and then the first year i was trying to be normal so i sold some weed and then i got kicked out for
selling weed the first semester um and lost my scholarship so i'm like fuck it i'm just gonna do school stuff
so then i went to school for nanomaterial chemical engineering and i just went through with that
because it was fucking stupid that i was so misunderstood with shit so yeah so i i have a whole gambit of of like autoimmune stuff but i realized that most of
the doctors kind of misdiagnosed me in in terms of the underlying issue which is just being
neurodivergent and are you getting good are you getting good sleep uh i've i spent like I spent so much of my life figuring out what was wrong with my sleep, but I realized a lot of it was my lack of processing my emotions and stuff like that.
A lot of distractivity, other than my hypermobility that makes me have to be specifically comfortable in a certain way for that to
happen i realize that a lot of stuff in common and i have like the super sensitive everything
to back on what you were saying with the like um over overly sensitive to the sounds and stuff like
that my sounds and light and smell is all completely overclocked if you like work out in front of me
