ion of the word and here are the reasons why we should change the definition. And then the conservatives say no the word means X. And then the other side, okay yeah we agree on that. We agree what the word has always meant. What we're suggesting is that we update that and here's our reason why. And then the conservatives say you idiot that's not what the word means. And then the other side says okay I feel like you're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm not arguing who could have babies and how it used to be and how that made sense. I'm saying here are my reasons why we should update this. You can agree with them or disagree with them but let's talk about my reasons. And then the conservatives say I don't know how many times I can explain this. That's not what the word means.

You're not even having the same conversation. So the reason I don't talk about this much is that there's nothing to talk about. It's two people just having a conversation with themselves. There's not even anything there. So that's my take on that.

I'm going to run out of time quickly so let me run through some things. Wall Street Journal is having a fight with itself because their opinion section printed Trump's letter in which he made claims which the fact people don't agree with. So I guess the news people in the Journal are mad at the opinion people for printing a Trump opinion. Now what is an opinion section if it can't have opinions including fake facts? I don't know. I think I'm going to side with the opinion piece as long as the body fact-checks it. Don't you think that opinion should be fact-checked if it's in the same publication? What do you think of that?

So I'm okay with opinions being wrong or even having fake news in them but I think the publication that puts such an opinion in it should have a little news fact checking. Now it could have more than one source because maybe the fact checkers don't agree and that would be ideal.

Adam something on Twitter had an interesting observation which I'm going to agree with. It goes like this. So you know that Biden got elected by simply not appearing in public. Biden's strongest quality was that people didn't see him talking. And if he did, did I lose a bunch of money on what? I don't know what you're talking about. No I haven't lost a bunch of money. I don't know what you're talking about.

So Biden won by not being seen and lately we're seeing that Kamala Harris is sort of being de-emphasized. Could it be that they're going to put Kamala Harris on ice so you don't see anything about her for months until Joe Biden let's say retires for medical reasons and then you don't have any current fake news or even real news about Harris? So the idea would be that they'll keep her out of the light because the more you see her the less you like her.

All right. This is pretty good. This just came to me, a tweet by Carmine Sabia. He said every Democrat voted against a mandate to vaccinate those crossing the border. Every single one. Tell me more about the science. That's interesting. I'm not, I don't have an opinion yet because I haven't thought about it long enough but this is a very provocative idea to require mandatory vaccinations for all immigration across the border. If we believe in the science you kind of have to believe in this don't you? If you believe in any kind of mandate and you believe in the science wouldn't you have to be in favor of this? Apparently every Democrat voted against it. Did that really happen? I don't know that there was a bill about that but I assume Carmine knows. It's a good question. I'm not sure what my opinion on that is because I'm opposed to mandates but if you're going to have mandates why wouldn't you apply them in a rational way? It's a good point.

All right. You think your state is awesome? Watch this. I live in California and there's a reason California is the best. We had of course problems with the forest fires here. Pretty big problems. How do we solve our forest fire problem crisis? With a storm crisis. We added a gigantic rainstorm to solve our other crisis and it did. We solved our forest fires with our rainstorm. So thank goodness for climate change because it probably made all that worse so they say now.

But we're even smarter than that. You know school choice was a big problem. People were not into it. Well we solved school choice with COVID. The pandemic pretty much made everybody sick of the school system so probably more school choice coming. We got that going. Traffic was a gigantic problem in California but thanks to COVID we used that to solve the commuting problem. And it looks like we also have an energy problem in California. We run out of energy sometimes. But it looks like we're going to solve the energy problem by the supply chain crisis. The supply chain will be so bad nobody can go anywhere and buy anything so I think the energy shortage is solved as well.

So only California can solve a crisis with a crisis. About you, your state didn't think of that. You give us a crisis we'll find another crisis to solve that crisis. Now you might say but Scott that leaves you with whatever crisis you use to solve the other one. Sure but is that a problem? Not if you can solve it with another crisis. You just keep solving things with one crisis after another. I don't think there's anything wrong with that idea is there?

All right. There's a reverse discrimination case. A white male marketing VP in some hospital in a, I don't know, lineup got 10 million dollars because he was fired to make room for a white woman and a black woman to replace him in his position. And apparently he's not the only one. In his complaint he alleged that the same thing happened to the chief legal officer, the medical group president, the chief information officer, the patient experience officer and the president of blah blah something else. They were all replaced either by a black person or a woman in the 12 to 18 months after him. The jury agreed with him. The jury agreed with him that his complaint was valid. He was being replaced because of his ethnicity and his gender and that a whole bunch of people have been replaced for that reason.

Now let me ask you this. I don't know if I've seen a case where people were fired to make room for diversity but I've certainly seen lots of cases where people could only get a job if they were the right ethnicity including me. So if you know my story when I worked in corporate America I was told explicitly that I couldn't be promoted because I was white and male.

Let me ask you this. If you were to compare the numbers of explicit racism of the old-fashioned way where let's say somebody who's Black or LGBTQ or a woman is discriminated against for who they are in a corporate setting, let's say a big company, a big corporation, how much of that do you think you get compared to the reverse discrimination? What do you think is the ratio of real discrimination, you know the classic kind against let's say Black Americans in particular, versus this kind where there was a white person who was discriminated against in corporate America? Not in the small businesses that would be different. I would say one to ten or maybe one to a hundred. Maybe one to a hundred. Yeah.

Google red herring Scott. Make a point will you? Like such a dumb ass comments like that just have no purpose here. You should just stop watching this content. Should go just go away. Somebody's over there on YouTube saying red herring Scott, red herring. I don't even know what freaking topic you're talking about. Could you do a little bit better than that? Go Google red herring. Go Google red herring. Come on do better. Improve your game.

There's an antidepressant that looks like it helps with COVID. Fluvoxamine and maybe others too. Apparently it's an anti-inflammatory. Interesting. What are the odds that the reason that fluvoxamine works as an antidepressant is that it is an anti-inflammatory? If that's the only mechanism that makes it happen.

Let me ask you this. Have you discovered that people are complaining a lot about inflammation in the comments? Tell me is there somebody in your life and it might be you who is complaining about inflammation a lot? Like everybody's talking about it. Like I got this inflammation. Yeah look at the comments. Yes yes yes I am. Yes yes. I feel as though there might be some correlation between inflammation and depression and maybe anxiety and that we're, there's something in the environment and maybe a lot of things, maybe our lifestyle, maybe our food, maybe a lot of things is causing inflammation. And I have a sneaking suspicion that inflammation makes you feel depressed.

And do you know what weed does? It's an anti-inflammatory. It makes you happy. Fluvoxamine, it's an anti-inflammatory. It makes you happy. Pattern recognition people. You know I mean it would just be something I'm curious about but I'll bet if you googled anti-inflammatory and antidepressant you would find that somebody, and I haven't done this I just had this thought, you would find that somebody's looking into it now. Aspirin too maybe. Yeah aspirin too maybe.

All true. Budesonide. Prednisone is an anti-inflammatory and also used against COVID but I don't know if it, oh God when I was on, oh good point. When I was on prednisone that literally makes you happy and you're also very, you have no inflammation. That's a good example. I wonder if, does ivermectin work that way? Is ivermectin an anti-inflammatory? I don't know. Yeah exercise is, it blows up your body right? I don't know what you mean.

All right well let's keep an eye on this because this fluvoxamine is
