kind of maybe like a wild goose chase that people theorizing what did we not
know is made of glitter but it’s made of glitter and apparently the the sellers
and the manufacturers of this product cannot do not want the public to know
that it’s made out of glitter what is it what could be made out of gift that
would be good to have if we had people like to pull all the nudists could
chime in yeah
that would be that would be a great to get like a pull of nudists and what they think
is made out of glitter that isn’t glitter uh now so again because thematically of our
conversation i’m thinking the 11 herbs of spices in kfc is just glitter
maybe it is but so the thing that they don’t want us to know is litter
glitter obviously doesn’t look like glitter in its finished form otherwise it we’d know
um so people are thinking is it is it phones is it is it plastic well the cars are sparkly
um i wouldn’t be surprised if glitter goes into the paint that goes on to cars to make them sparkly
uh there’s actually a trend in cars right now where they’ve taken that shininess out and you have these
like almost dull colored cars now that i’ve said you probably haven’t even thought about it but now
that i’ve said it you’re going to go out in the street and see like these cars that go by that are
not shiny okay and they look they don’t look like cars they look like big toys almost it’s weird because
it looks not like we imagine a car to be but i could see that the sheer volume of cars produced
that could be the number one source of usage of glitter i don’t think it is because gay pride
there’s
well whatever the number one buyer is it’s absolutely top secret yeah like to the point where
it would cause not distress maybe just controversy if it was found out that glitter was in this product
um so cars being glittery itself it’s it’s not too obvious yeah it’s too easy almost because yeah
because that because it’s shiny it makes me glittery because the question then is because my logic was
the glitter it makes it shiny or sparkly but then is it something that is sparkly that they don’t want
you to think about or is it something that’s not sparkly and they don’t but then what is glitter is
just tiny flakes of plastic right when i yeah when i looked at it there’s yeah it’s like plastic um
there’s a there’s a more than you’d imagine complicated price and making it but essentially
yeah uh but because of the secrecy and the hush hush of it all and the way that the the representative
was talking about it as if her life would be on my mind um like it’s a government thing like it’s
there’s something is it in food is it in drink is it in something that we shouldn’t that it shouldn’t
be in yeah like my like my microplastics kind of thing well no because that was i thought okay like
microplastics but then my first thought when you said it like something that shouldn’t be in there was
the microplastics the little beads that should have that are in toothpaste that they i think it’s
illegal now and it was it was like to scrub your teeth or make it feel like it was being scrubbed but it
was just little bits of plastic and so that got into kind of it was just for texture um i’m pretty
sure most countries have made it illegal to put it in toothpaste now pooth taste
toothpaste toothpaste toothpaste now uh but which just means but that’s not glitter because it’s little
balls i imagine it’s a similar kind of thing in face scrubs that you yeah yeah yeah so that a lot of that
was microplastics and a lot of them were like don’t you don’t need it it was just to make it feel
like something was happening even if maybe nothing was happening but it was completely unnecessary
and that was when microplastics but that i think most of those things were made illegal because it
wasn’t doing anything in the first place anyways no okay but that wouldn’t be because depending on when
this thing you read was the tick tock it was still going on last part it was at the latter end of
it last year so it’s quite recently quite recently sorry yeah no no yeah yeah that it makes sense
no i have no idea we we would love glass is it the the only question you need is is it still glittery
like is glitter the substance and it’s glittery or is it just like filler and a product of something else
does glitter have a second purpose other than being glittery yeah and our brains are now like i’m stuck
on it has to be sparkly something sparkly sparkly sparkly sparkly there are no stars in the sky
flat earth is correct and they use glitter to simulate stars
cracked it open it’s all flatter theory do you know flat earthers think australia doesn’t exist
that makes you think that there are no flow of this in australia well okay anyone who says they’re
from australia is an actor is the first thing so i okay flat earth is already a hard thing to justify
i don’t understand why they would make it another level more complicated by saying
the continent doesn’t exist like you’re just why are you adding that extra element of difficulty to your
conspiracy theory so if you fly to australia you fly up in the air you fly around in a circle and you land
somewhere like hawaii or texas and then that’s just not real it’s all actors all the animals are fake
and it’s just australia isn’t real but i’m like the level of complication you’ve made in your conspiracy
theory is insane yeah it’s not something easy do they think the same with is that with new zealand
yeah i why i’m assuming australia it was very the thing i read was very specifically about australia
was about australia does not exist and the and the justifications that came up like well i’ve been to
australia no you flew to texas and all those were actors but i don’t understand why you can but you
can go on the coast of australia and you can see that it’s not the same as any american coast yeah it’s
the same it’s the coast of texas it’s that’s i think texas is landlocked actually my my my sister
lives in australia well she doesn’t though she doesn’t she lives in texas yeah lying so and so
yeah immigrants actually i didn’t think about the element like people have immigrated to australia
and they’re just surrounded by actors again it’s too much to keep up it’s not worth keeping up
or do they just become an actor just get hired you said it was your sister yeah you should be asking some
hard questions i i certainly shall next time i see her if i see her again if you see her again
like um we in we the british uh sent a lot of our criminals to australia or texas um before it was texas
in in in the history of britain so um i wonder if the flat earthers link that period of british history to
their theory of flat earth it would be interesting to see like do they believe like okay so how do you
explain away the history of australia because australia yeah so the british sent their the
convicts it was a penal colony uh there were aboriginals there there has the like they participated
in world war ii i don’t know about world war one but i know they had a big part in world war ii
they had that war against emus emus yeah they lost so yeah there’s the war against the australian
military and the emus and very technically they lost that war because there were too many emus and
they were like coming in and destroying crops they called out the military and they couldn’t shoot them
fast enough i would have to read up on this but i know there’s been a war between australia and
emus and australia did not win that war crikey yeah i know that that’ll be a topic next time i’ll
write that down and see if i can find the the words emus i thought you were just being silly
no no no everything i say is factually accurate um um there’s a speaking of history and its integrity or
factuality uh that i read something really recently coming back to me there’s a maybe a pretty sizable
group of people that think that about 300 years worth of history probably maybe european english history
is kind of fabricated or um which one did it say maybe i can’t remember if it was made up or just lost
because let me try and fill in the blanks okay yeah it was saying something like um the way we recorded
history all those hundreds of years ago was inaccurate and there was lots of um there were times when
history wasn’t recorded in the same manner as it had been previously or so there were lots of kind of
okay this history that we recorded in this way is up to here and then it gets a bit shaky here and
it’s just they kind of squash it down and pretend it didn’t exist or there’s a theory that we’ve lost
about 300 years worth of history i mean recording history has got to be like how many times were
people just like oh yeah you know a war happened and i just didn’t write it down like and you’re talking
like maybe millions of people or thousands of people and they’re just like yeah but i wasn’t there i
missed it i heard about it didn’t seem that big a deal like all that that was huge there must be so much
that we’ve lost knowledge of i don’t know why okay so i watched an episode my friend and i are
re -watching um star trek enterprise which is one of the worst star trek shows okay they go to a planet
this is supposed to be very early in the the star trek days they go to a planet and they find humans
and this is really shocking because humans hadn’t traveled out that far yet and it’s a pocket of 600 humans
uh that had been picked up by aliens and they were going to be used as slaves and then rebelled and
killed their captors and so this is all like a commentary on racism and stuff but not very well done
but they did a very classic star trek thing where the town was 1860s western style so everyone’s got like
cowboy hats and and pistols and stuff and they’re all walking around and they’re using like that style of
talking and the thing is they’re supposed to have been there for hundreds of years maybe 600 years
and i was like so in 600 years these people have not evolved at all like their language hasn’t
changed they haven’t discovered anything they haven’t improved they’re still using six shooters
they’re still talking did these aliens pick up the 600 dumbest people on the planet
did they do something to them they could have done something oh they could have done something to them
but they were smart enough to like beat off aliens in in the not one way not the other i mean maybe
catch them off guard oh we’re ready for that yeah maybe that’s why they were taking his slaves so they
could beat them off but they but i was like this is a problem with science fiction writing
is that they they’re like okay we want to take we want to have a wild west town where they’re oppressing
aliens so we’ve transferred that but they didn’t take into account okay we they’ve been there for
hundreds of years why have they not evolved at all like in any way like they’re still using the exact
same technology they haven’t discovered the internal combustion engine they haven’t i’m just like
like come on man like they would have done something even something that was kind of hybrid
of the technology they came with or knew about plus the alien stuff yes a hundred percent the only way i
could make it work which they didn’t do in the show is if you make it a religious thing that they can’t
use the technology like um amish people like okay we’re we’re doing away with technology because the
aliens did this and it’s now part of our religion that we teach children that could work but they
did kind of yours like i’ve already put more thought into this episode of tv than the people who wrote it
um could maybe anything anything we come up with is obviously if it wasn’t written in the show we
have to assume that it’s not part of the episodes can be canon yeah yeah i was going to say something
like it maybe um the material used in the alien stuff is toxic to them so they can’t even interact
with it i’d be okay with that like again you could you could make a lot you could take five minutes
and figure out why have they not evolved let’s explain it away in a couple sentences like it doesn’t have to be
the premise of the episode the episode was about uh these settlers oppressing the aliens and then
it had been a couple hundred years so the people who’d grown up even the aliens like they weren’t
the ones who oppressed you so why are you oppressing them back that kind of stuff right but again very
poorly done in tables and then they just left oh the people on the star trek people the star trek
people they’re just like well we kind of helped for a couple minutes we’ve really interfered with
the society uh let’s go how did they leave the situation with the aliens and uh they had basically
i i watched this a little while ago they had helped there was like schools were illegal for alien kids
and they were like no you’re not going to do that anymore and they killed a couple people
oh and then kind of moved on it was it was very bad there’s a reason that show didn’t
it was right i love the idea of this story though this is a very interesting plot to have obviously
they didn’t think much about it i’m okay with like okay we’ve taken people from the wild west we’ve put
them on another planet but they’re not just going to stay in the wild west that was the only that was
the bit my sticking point i was like once you have a hundred years or two hundred years something
changes you would have some guy who invents something or they live on another planet so maybe they have to
evolve to do things differently yeah they have to interact with their environment differently there’s
different animals monsters whatever none of that they’re just like no still in the wild west for the
next 500 years like the wild west in america only lasted for about 50 years
um did the a wait the aliens took the humans but they must have taken technology and artifacts from
that time as well well no again so i think i think the implication is the aliens took just a group of
humans from the wild west because they would be easy to pick up flew them to another planet and then
the the there was an uprising and they killed the aliens or most of them and then just built the wild
west again because that’s what they knew but again that would have been a couple generations previous so
yeah architecture would change like oh you know what these stupid saloon doors that don’t close i
don’t really like those let’s get rid of those like yeah uh you know cowboy hats are really hard to
make on this alien planet i think maybe we should make a different kind of hat do you need a cowboy hat
with the environment anyway they did make it again it’s really annoying it was like a dusty village
very wild westy okay yeah i’m trying to like i watch a lot of science fiction and stuff so i get really
into it but then it’s if i stop and think about it i’m like i immediately get angry because they
clearly didn’t think about some aspects of it saying that all the ideas that we’ve thrown around here
will probably enrich the story of that episode a bit more wouldn’t it but even my bit like okay change
a couple things in the in the town have them explain what you know this came about because
of this okay so they have evolved they have changed but it’s like nah star trek is so like low level
they just like no a to b b stays exactly the same like nah man that’s not how that works
that’s frustrating did you do you have any things that bug you about the alien series
oh my gosh oh my gosh movies so the first alien movie is really really good
it pisses me off how big the alien gets how quickly it gets so big so it starts out as the face hugger
it implants an egg the egg comes out as a worm uh it turns into the alien about seven feet tall 20 minutes
later like yeah the only thing it should do is if like i’m okay with something growing super fast
because it’s an alien thing and we don’t understand its physiology it should eat a ton of food to get
that big that quickly though it eats a person maybe two people and that then it’s like eight feet tall
but they’re kind of biologically engineered so which is which is revealed in later movies sorry spoilers
oh we’re going to be spoiling this movie from 1978 yeah they fill in a lot of those details in
other movies after where you find out the origins of the aliens and stuff so and they’re made
they’re made they’re made by the the architects yeah that’s right trying to clean off a planet before
they like seed it for life now wait yep prometheus the the architects yes they they destroy the alien aliens
so in in prometheus it’s black goo yeah that black goo becomes an alien -esque thing but the the whole
point is it’s supposed to basically kill everything and then they can start a new planet yeah but the
aliens that that are seen in the very first movie that form of alien that’s like the the details are
tweaked by the the android guy aren’t they is it david so in prometheus no so in prometheus it’s tweaked
by the android because he’s trying to like communicate or commune with it in the first one we don’t know how
many evolutions this alien has gone through so the alien takes on attributes of its host so the alien
in the movie alien walks upright because it was in a human in the third movie there’s an alien that runs
on all fours because it was in a cow so that the bull alien so we don’t know how many things it’s gone
through to get to this evolution that it’s at now which is good because then again that maintains like okay
a lot of weird stuff is happening that’s why it has two mouths we don’t know why it has that
serves no purpose as far as we can see but the only thing the only thing that bugs me about the first
movie is it should take a lot of energy to grow that big so i feel like you should have to eat four or five
people to be able to grow that fast i don’t think i would like it eating to get energy because
that in that if it if that was the case it would feel a little more familiar to something i understand
yeah and i don’t want to understand the aliens however i do think that the the speed in which it does
grow is ridiculous because when i think i watched the movies first when i was really young so i don’t
actually remember how quickly it was i assumed that it was over a few weeks it was just running around in the ship no that’s how i remember it when i watched it recently i realized it was in the same day
yeah but um in my memory having this alien kind of not knowing where it is for at least days that’s a
better movie yeah yeah because the knowing it’s on the ship and then like i got if i was gonna rewrite
one part of it it would be like yes that takes a couple weeks or months and then a couple people disappear
all the food disappears like he eats all the food stores so then the people now don’t have enough food
like you could actually create more tension with like oh shit all our food’s gone like it ate all our food
and now it’s eating us and it’s just trying to eat as much as possible the other thing is the alien in the first movie is smart in every subsequent movie the alien itself gets dumber and that really bugs me
because as soon as they introduce the queen so the second movie is an action movie and it’s hundreds of aliens and they just act like ants
and they explain that away like the queen is kind of controlling them but they’re dumb like they’re just dumb
maybe she’s a dumb queen this well because they they have the robotic machine guns
and the way they solve that problem is just have so many aliens run towards it it runs out of bullets
but i was like the first alien would have like oh i’m gonna crawl around behind it and smash it and turn
it off like it would yeah figure that out so you have a few die and then have it stop but they were just
like oh no they’re just gonna throw it until they all run out of bullets which was just it was a cool scene
it didn’t match with how smart the first alien was i’d always take a creepy scene over an action scene
they’re that much more entertaining yeah yeah tension is good yeah i agree with that maybe um while
a group of aliens together are acting as kind of a hive mind or just following orders from a from a queen
maybe maybe being isolated um activates a more a survival instinct survival or smarter way of thinking
because in the third movie maybe the fourth movie they have aliens in a pod that the humans are
experimenting with the two aliens attack a third alien so that it will bleed on the floor so they
can get out yeah yeah that was good i remember that’s intelligence though and that’s the bit that
pissed me off because i’m like why they’re smart when they need to be smart and then super dumb
when they need to be dumb and i that i can’t get over that because you just have to decide is it
smart or not smart i’m okay with either because big zombies are dumb they just lumber forward they can
be scary but if i think aliens being smart is more scary definitely more scary maybe they’re treating like
humans not all humans are smart yeah volume again i don’t know yeah because then you get into alien
predator versus so this is the problem how far do you want to go because in the alien versus
predator movies the aliens are just dumb as bricks they’re just animals i don’t like the
the crossfire predators no they were not they were not good um the those movies were pretty poor
yeah because they obviously hadn’t been thought about again and they didn’t take any time to be like
how do we come like okay so these aliens are coming down they’re going to attack something town village
whenever uh the predators are going to come they’re doing cleanup i’m like logically that makes
sense but then why are the aliens so dumb is it i could believe that the aliens were dumber in this
movie franchise movies because isn’t it where the the predators create some kind of repeated ritual
where it’s like a blood spot for them they get human sacrifices to create the opportunity for them to
kill a bunch of things maybe that is that is like a coming of age ceremony so the predators in
alien versus predator 2 there’s like three or four of them and they get wiped out pretty quick
by the aliens but it’s because they’re supposed to be like teenagers they don’t explain that very well
no they’re supposed to be like this is essentially like a coming of age ritual ceremony and they’re
supposed to go in there and do their first hunt under controlled circumstances yeah but yeah pretty garbage
right so that we should find a movie and watch it and discuss the movie that actually would be not a
bad thing i watched him with jason statham movie it was really really poor i can’t remember the name
even um but there was one scene and i can’t imagine how it was directed because it was him and the bad
guy across from him and they’re running out of ways for jason statham to be tough so the guy was eating
his breakfast he had pancakes and coffee and then jason statham picks up syrup and he he goes and i i
imagine the direction in the script was aggressively pours the syrup on the pancakes
because he just poured way too much syrup on the other guy’s pancakes and i’m like
that was not intimidating at all like yeah
sometimes things don’t need to be intimidating they were trying to i mean in this situation
have a conversation say some tough stuff get up and walk away fine you don’t need to ruin the other
guy’s breakfast yeah that’s not going to do you any good at all it seems a bit
yeah no it just it ruined and like there was a little bit of tension and then i was like when
he aggressively poured syrup i was like no you kind of really did this there it’s like the difference
between just being a big tough guy or trying to make someone see you as a big tough guy well i
so being having spent my whole life doing judo and stuff like i know really really tough dudes
and i know the people who are trying to be really tough dudes the really really tough dudes super calm
super gentle and never lose their shit and i’m like because they know they don’t have to prove it
they know that they’re like any situation i’ve seen them in they were like super chill i was in a
bar with this guy he was just like super super high level he was just like incredible guy came over
tried to pick a fight with him because it was the other biggest guy in the bar and he just looked
at me he’s like dude whatever man like he just no hint that he was intimidated at all because
he and i was like that’s actually the calm relaxed guy is the scariest guy because he knows he’s fine
yeah they’re in control yeah everything else just seems really performative and
the average person could just see right through it yeah i think so like there’s a feeling and so
like when someone gets up in your face and you’re just like okay i mean if that’s what you want to do
i guess that’s what we’re gonna do just zero zero like fear in this thing about performative macho -ness
uh something that makes me laugh okay um any any scene in a movie where the guy drags a chair to a
table and sits on it backwards so he’s leaning on the back of the chair that grinds my gears because
no no one does that the person who wrote that that that direction is not a tough guy
otherwise they’d know that that’s gonna just be a weird mood killer because when i see that i think
of the high school teacher who’s trying to be cool yeah they do that they do that in high school movies
a lot where they like turn the chair around like hey guys let’s talk like we’re equals hey fellow teenagers
yeah yeah yeah it’s that’s it no so you’re right so like i was trying to write a story this was back when i was
younger and it was the main character supposed to be a genius and then i realized really quickly
i’m not a genius there’s no way i can write what a genius would think and i think that’s a problem
like you can’t write someone smarter than you and so you’re saying right now you can’t really write
someone tougher than you without it being performative immediately because i could write real tough guys because i know
them as people so i would just write that guy yeah i came up i because again i went through the whole
gambit of insecure male to overconfident overcompensating male to now i’m comfortable
to now i’m actually making fun of what i was when i was a teenager like i think i’ve gone full circle
where i’ll do stuff that i did as a teen because it’s funny not because i think it’s actually tough but
have you ever what is your most performative male moment oh um
it’s such a weird question yeah i’d say um performative male moment um to be completely honest
i’ve never been under the illusion that i’m a tough male so i’ve never felt like i had to perform as one
however something that i do to this day sometimes do um if i feel a little bit uncomfortable is um
i’ll lower my voice if i’m talking to strangers and there’s something about the situation or them
or my perception of what’s going on that’s making me a little uncomfortable
okay so for example when i would um it rarely happens now because you’re okay but yeah because
i don’t care so much but it’s not the zero percent um but when i was a teenager or a young 20s
something um i would come back to the family house and my brother who isn’t a tough tough guy but he’s
typically tough he goes to the gym a lot and yeah things like that he would be sat in the kitchen
with his friends and his friends knowing me as like the nerdy younger brother they liked me but
there was definitely a lot of kind of bravado and mickey taking and so i couldn’t help the the jordan
inside of me would be saying what are you lowering your voice about stupid but i couldn’t stop myself from
doing it yeah um and it wasn’t like hello guys how are we doing today but it would i i guess that it
was it would be something that at least my brother would be wondering about you would notice what what’s
he doing because he lives with me so yeah um maybe his friends wouldn’t catch on so much but i don’t know
i think i think the most not even matter the most i don’t know the strongest version of human that you
are is one that doesn’t care what people thinks yeah in the way that it it would kind of inhibit them
or make them act in a way that they wouldn’t actually do i think being yourself being yourself is the
strongest oh there’s a mess
