The liberals are destroying California and conservative humor gone awry.
Conservative humor gone awry is going to fascist-phonia today.
So stay tuned.
We're going to take a few pictures of the desert and how their policies are actually messing it up.
It's not beautiful when you go across that corner.
But stay tuned, guys.
We'll show you exactly what it looks like when you're in the middle of the storm.
All there in Martin, Houston.
Stay tuned.
All right, I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
We are Minion Death Cult.
The world is ending.
The Academy is responsible.
And we're documenting it.
What's up, everybody?
It's your midweek episode.
Thanks so much for tuning in.
Thanks for supporting the show.
Thanks for the kind words about our guest, Ani, on the last episode.
A lot of people seemed to enjoy Ani on the episode.
Other times you can hear Ani, other Ani-sodes.
She was on Last Responders.
The episode is Honor Dogs Revere First Responders.
Amazing episode, which I think that's where Rob Lowe joins a right wing biker infiltrates right wing biker gang, right?
They're the honor dogs.
They're like the Patriot biker gang.
Yeah.
And it's great because like we just this the whole thing is beautiful because us being who we are, we just knew right away what was happening.
And it was just beautiful to watch.
It's a great episode, classic episode.
She's also on the lava episode of first response or last responders rather That the volcano in LA something like that Maybe one of my favorite episodes of both the show and the show that's the one where somebody gets de-gloved, right?
Yes Yeah, they get de-gloved because they're inside of a pool that is now, lava's underneath the pool.
Oh yeah.
So it hyperheats the pool up, and the woman who this guy was previously being awful to, tries to save his life by pulling him out of the pool, but he's already basically been boiled, and she just sloughs his forearm to fingertips off.
And it looks awesome.
Yeah.
What a great show.
Body horror classic show.
The woke body horror show.
It's so good.
Yeah, I think enough of you guys have been clamoring enough for it to where maybe we can get people to come back on for it, so we'll see.
We'll see.
She's also on the episode we did for Nefarious, the Christian movie.
Some have claimed she threatened to beat up Steve Deese, the crying Christian podcaster who wrote that movie.
I don't even remember her saying that much because she was extremely drunk when we saw the movie, because we went out for dinner beforehand at Pizza Casa, which was a, you know, obviously a Mexican place.
By the name of it, you could tell.
Wait, is it really?
Is it really pizza and Mexican food?
It had everything, dude.
Anything you could want.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
The waitress got Ani really drunk with a Long Island iced tea, and so Ani just, like, doesn't really remember Nefarious, but she's still on that episode, and like you, like, you know, like I mentioned, she, uh, she chimes in from time to time.
The Ani versus Sick!
Go heads, no.
Yeah, and despite what you may have heard, the extended Aniverse is still canon.
Last Responders is still canon.
The time she's brought me a drink while I was doing death chat, that's all still relevant, okay?
The buyout doesn't affect any of that.
Yeah, absolutely.
I think that that can't be forgotten because those are things you have to really consider when when we're, you know, analyzing the character and person that is Ani.
So just, you know, get all of it, get all of it in.
Um, for people who are asking on his truck is a is a Tacoma early 2000s Tacoma with other distinguishing characteristics that I won't share.
But she they're cool.
She's cool.
Yeah, absolutely.
I funny because I didn't say it on the episode because it would have like I thought it was going to be too much.
But I got to get a picture of it.
There's a there's a A house not too far from you right now that has two, two nearly identical, like 95 Tacomas in their in their front yard.
And they're just sitting there, they're just there, they're like, they look awesome.
But I was like, it's that thing where, you know, if I won the lottery, I wouldn't tell anybody, but there'd be there'd be signs.
Yeah, yeah.
What I'm saying is Ani rolls coal.
So if you see an early 2000s Tacoma with some cool stuff like a big stovepipe.
Yep.
And a train horn.
She's got a train horn on her truck too.
Have you heard one of those?
They're awful.
Somebody, we were, we were protesting, we were like, uh, what do you call it?
Raising awareness of wage theft out front of a restaurant in Seattle.
Uh, don't eat at Royal India in, uh, I don't know, somewhere north, north Seattle.
I don't remember what city it, I don't, you can't keep track all these crazy cities in here, you know?
Um, And somebody with like a giant Dually F450, just, you know, personal vehicle, no logo or anything on the side, didn't do anything with it, of course, blew his train horn in support of us.
And I just, you know what, I'll take it.
That's probably what, that was probably, that would push, that would push a movement over, you know?
If they heard the train horn support of the people standing out front, that would really push a movement over.
I think that's good.
How are those legal?
They're not, right?
You buy them through the internet and they get sent to a verified dealer and then you have to do a background check and you have to do this little slideshow saying you know how to use the Use a train horn, but actually it's just really kind of like blueprints on how to get around the very loose train horn regulations there are.
It's the fact that the horn's concealed, that's where it gets sticky.
Okay, yeah.
So we have to say with a heavy heart, things not going well, especially for women.
Sorry ladies, I just, I got the news.
Barbie did not get nominated for Best Actress or Best Song.
Or Best Director, even though it did get nominated for Best Supporting Actress, Best Actor, and Best Picture, of course.
So, you know what this is a lot like, Tony?
No.
This is a lot like Hillary Clinton losing 2008 all over again.
I thought I felt like a similar vibration.
I thought I felt like a similar darkness that was like wafting over America.
I felt it in my bones.
I felt the tears of a million women hit the ground.
Cry out.
Hit the ground.
And then a loud shushing as if they were silenced forever.
Daring to share their emotions.
It's the silence.
The silence was louder than all of their hopes.
It hurt.
So this guy, Brian Behar, tweeted out, maybe this is an oversimplification.
Brian Behar, I think, might be married to Joy Behar.
Or he's changed his name to Behar out of solidarity with the members of The View.
I'm not sure.
That's just like what the context clues have told me.
Let me continue with this tweet.
Maybe this is an oversimplification, but Ryan Gosling being nominated, but not Margot Robbie?
I want to call her Roby Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig perfectly explains to me why we aren't in the eighth year of Hillary Clinton's presidency.
And I already knew that I already knew why we weren't, you know, in the eighth year.
I don't know.
You had to hear it from the Academy, I guess.
I've been wondering, but that's because I haven't seen Barbie.
I just it doesn't matter how good the movie is, Tony.
They would never give it to, they would never give them more than the three Oscar noms they got.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
It's like, it's just not, that is so true.
It's like, sorry you weren't president.
- You got some other pretty big bags along the way. - Yeah, best supporting actresses is like Secretary of State.
Exactly.
It's a perfect analogy.
I don't know, do you think that Barbie got robbed, Tony?
I haven't seen Barbie.
I don't know.
It is the only thing that's confusing, and it's just my ignorance on how this stuff works.
It is funny that a movie can get nominated for Best Picture and not get Best Director.
Yeah, that would be my that would be my hang up.
And not that I and I know that I know that and what I've seen a lot is I know that Greta Gerwig has been snubbed before.
Um... So, I don't know.
That's all... I guess that's the similarities I do see there.
Wait, are they saying she got snubbed for Lady Bird?
No, this is just about... Because Lady Bird sucked.
Oh, okay.
Did Lady Bird win?
I was just looking at her other movies and I was thinking of what else I would see.
No, he's saying Barbie.
This tweet is about Barbie.
Oh yeah, but I'm saying people were saying that she's been snubbed before, much like Hillary's been snubbed before.
Oh.
Yeah, Greta Gerwig got cheated on by the audience when they went to see another movie instead of her movie.
All those people out there openly talking about seeing Oppenheimer and Barbie?
Hey, I got Oppenheimer to give me a blowjob in the theater, so yeah.
I mean, and that was a three hour epic.
Sorry it wasn't your cute little pink, you know, little, you know, vanilla, vanilla blowjob.
This was a three hour epic blowjob.
I don't like, I agree.
Barbie was robbed.
It should have gotten a best actress.
Just like, What, Transformers?
Did they give Shia anything for Transformers?
No.
They've never respected who we are as a people, you know?
Yeah, I don't think that Dominic Toretto, the character Dominic Toretto, has won one single award.
Or like, for anything.
I don't know, to me it's like saying... Oh, you know what was a real snub?
Tom Hanks didn't get Best Actor for Big.
Yeah.
I'm like, well, that's that's a great movie, but best actor like I don't like you.
I don't know you guys.
This is weird.
It's weird that these are like because I'm going to get to it.
But but Hillary Clinton herself responds to Brian's tweet, but it just she like sub tweets him, but in a good way.
And then he gets like interviewed by somebody for being the inspiration for Hillary's tweet, like some online magazine.
But what were you going to say, Tony?
Getting quote tweeted is being the inspiration for a tweet.
I love that.
It's important, dude.
That's how I knew he wasn't joking.
When I read this, I was like, I was like, okay, this is, this is real funny.
We should, we should talk about it on the show.
And then right before the show started, I was like, I need to make sure this guy isn't joking.
Uh... So I went to his, uh... Hold on, sorry.
Yeah, so I went to his Twitter, and the way I knew that he wasn't joking was, A, he retweeted the Hillary Clinton tweet, and then he, uh, tweeted, I don't actually believe that Hillary Clinton was responding to my tweet, but I still amen- I'm... but still immensely flattered that, at BuzzFeed, thought she was.
Praying hands emoji.
So humble.
Yeah.
So humble.
Yeah.
Because I would I would have been all like, honestly, yeah, Hillary Clinton's been kind of riding my dick like all the time.
Like the it's insane.
She's always she's always subtweeting about me.
It's nothing new.
Kind of like how I do with Obama now.
And I got to tell you, it is an oversimplification like this.
This little tidbit is very much an oversimplification.
I'm glad you know that part.
Did Barbie, like, forget to run in 50 theaters in the Rust Belt?
Is that what happened?
Yeah, yeah.
Is that what happened?
The fucking producers are like, we don't need Michigan.
Is there a Barbie prequel coming out where she, like, calls all the darker Barbies Transformers?
Or, you know, Beast Formers?
Is that what they were called?
I'm not going to engage in this conversation.
What were the animal Transformers?
Beast Wars?
She called all the other Barbies Beast Wars?
There's a, yeah, Beast Wars, I think was another brand.
I don't know what the... I remember the cartoon, but that's all I remember.
Because it's the Autobots or the automobiles, you know.
What are the animals?
Don't remember.
Sorry, folks.
What we wouldn't say anyway is because now it's racist because of Barbie.
I just, I don't, I don't really think Margot Robbie expected to get nominated for an Oscar.
Like this was, I don't think this was, I'm sure it's a good performance.
I haven't seen the movie.
The movie looks fine.
It maybe looks like some of the humor wouldn't be up my alley, but it looks like a fun adventure, you know, widely appealing movie that maybe Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie put some extra Put some extra spin on it, you know, some extra some English on the ball.
Yeah.
But yeah, you said I don't think she took this role being like, this is my time.
This is this is what I would be.
This is is going to change me from an actor to a thespian.
This is I'm going to finally get the respect I'm going to be more than The Joker's girlfriend.
I was going to say the woman did Suicide Squad, which she have to prove at this point.
Yeah.
No.
OK, no, this is a big deal because, yeah, the former secretary of state, one of the leaders of the Democratic Party at this at this point in time, Hillary Clinton tweeted Greta and Margo, comma.
She's already like, I think, presumptuous, presumptive, like Really?
Do you know them?
Are they your friends?
It's Dr. Greta to you.
Also this format.
Don't start your tweet address to me like a letter because I know that a tweet can't be long enough for a letter that I'm taking seriously.
So it's a stupid format.
Really, you're like trying to add gravitas to your tweet, which impossible.
Not going to happen.
You look at this and then you see how Trump tweeted and there's just no more questions.
Yeah.
Like we all know why people win and lose.
Greta and Margo says, while it can sting to win the box office but not take home the gold, your millions of fans love you.
You're both so much more than Knuff.
Hashtag Hillary Barbie.
What?
You can't just make that up.
What are you talking about?
Hashtag Hillary and Barb, were people already using that?
I don't, no way.
Yeah, they were because this guy went viral.
He got, you know, 8,000 likes on his comparison of the Oscar quote snub to the, you know, lack of a Hillary Clinton presidency.
So I guess it was trending.
Man, you don't like you.
It's so it's just like skin, skin crawling that she used this hashtag.
The thing about see the thing, Hillary, is that the hashtag is to kind of like anyone who's following that hashtag already follows you, babe.
Like, that's what's going on here.
OK, so like they already got that.
And like, you can't use the hashtag about yourself.
You just can't do that.
That's why you never see me using the hashtag like Tony's so cool.
I know it's a really common hashtag people use.
I don't use it.
I think it's tacky.
Yeah.
Thank you.
I mean, just like a godlike level of restraint on your part.
I appreciate it.
I love it.
I follow it, but I would never use it.
While it can sting to win the box office, but not take home the gold.
So that's winning the popular vote, but not getting the Oscar at the end of the road, if you know what I'm saying.
It's so funny.
So, yeah, they got a billion dollars, but they didn't get the little trophy.
Yeah.
At the end.
Also, it did.
Barbie finally give you give you like the courage to maybe talk about like a recount or something, you know?
Oh, I don't think they can do a recount now at this point.
I think it's too late now.
Yeah.
I think they they thought about doing a recount.
Cause I don't remember that being part of it.
I remember like, I don't remember Hillary being like, but we actually got more votes.
I don't remember that being a thing.
I think they did, did recounts in, in like, you know, obviously a few places, but I don't think there was ever a democratic campaign.
There was like a faithless electors campaign where they wanted people to lie, you know, go, go for their state and vote for a different person than your county actually, or your district actually voted for.
I remember people crying way too early in the day to have any question about it, to have any like pushback on it.
Your millions of fans love you.
You're both so much more than Kenneth, which I guess is a line in the movie.
I think that's the song.
That's the song, I believe, yeah.
I'm Ken or whatever.
And I think it's funny that she did take a phrase that is kind of like a wholesome, Because I think k'naf means like, you don't have to be this, you don't have to be that, you're great just for who you are, you're enough.
And then Hillary Clinton saying, yeah, but Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig are kind of more, more than what every human has inside of them, just as like objective decency.
Yeah, I also, yeah, again, you're kind of, now you're taking them down to the level of kin, it feels like.
No, they're more.
They're more than kin of.
Oh, they're more, okay.
Yeah, this is misandry is what I'm saying, guys.
This is anti-man.
Just try continuing to demonize the white man.
Not cool.
You know, it's like, uh, right, right.
Don't, don't, don't pull us down.
Just, you know, pull yourselves up on us.
Crab's in a bucket, Hillary.
Like you and me, we're both trying for the same thing and we can't step on each other to get it.
That's not how it works.
Let me get on your shoulders, Hillary.
Right.
You could probably pull her up afterwards.
Yep.
Which you totally would do.
Totally.
Totally would do that.
Yeah, I like that this is what, the first time a Native American woman's been nominated for Best Actress?
I think so, yeah.
Like, I mean, because Lily Gladstone nominated for an Oscar, I believe, the first, what I was reading, the first Native American woman ever nominated for an Oscar.
And Hillary Clinton tweeted out, what about the two white ladies?
Yeah.
Yes.
Yes, Margot Robbie is a producer on the movie, so that's what the best... You're asking about what the difference between a Best Picture nomination and a Best Director nomination is.
They had to invent a movie to give, like, the capitalists a trophy behind it.
Sorry, they had to invent an awards category to give the money to interests, and that's what Best Picture goes to, because... So Mattel wins something.
I don't know if Mattel, I guess they probably did produce it.
I don't know.
I think so.
On your part, I would hope so.
I think about it a lot, whether or not Mattel produced Barbie.
Yeah, so very funny that Hillary Clinton, yeah, just chose to, like, and a bunch of people, a bunch of people, the New York Times here, New York Times had some crazy editorial about this.
Let me see if I can find it.
Because I didn't even see who else was like nominated.
There are plenty of other white women involved in this.
If only Barbie had done a little time as a sex worker, or barely survived becoming the next victim in a mass murder plot, or stood accused of shoving Ken out the dream house's top window.
Certainly.
And so those are all, of course, references to the other nominations for Best Actress.
Yeah.
Sarcastically, oh, I guess it's too bad Barbie wasn't a member of the tribe that was getting wiped out.
The tribe of people that was getting wiped out in our nation's history.
Wow.
Sorry she wasn't an Osage and you couldn't cry about her ethnic cleansing.
Yeah, exactly.
It's like that's the funny thing.
It's like, oh, sorry.
Sorry that Barbie was a white girl.
OK, have you ever thought that maybe some people's some people's trials are the lack of trials?
How how was she supposed to develop grit with no adversity in front of her?
I mean, the thing we're not saying here, the thing that's going on said, and we'll just say it is Barbie was Barbie is normal.
And that's abhorrent to these people.
It is.
It is.
Barbie is a model of what a normal woman is, and they not on their watch.
They're trying to erase normal women.
It really does read like a like a Christian thing.
Yeah.
Like like replace any of this with.
Sorry, she wasn't black.
Sorry she didn't survive the holocaust.
Yeah.
Very funny.
Certainly millions of Barbie fans are currently wishing they could push someone, perhaps a member or two of the film academy.
out of a very high window.
And the L.A. Times made this into a little graphic that they shared.
This is Times columnist Mary McNamara fantasizing about killing Academy Award members for not giving Margot Robbie the nomination.
That's that's wild.
Maybe we do need to see Barbie.
Maybe it is really good because like we were we were talking previously about a movie that we like and other people not caring for it.
And at no point did I think to myself, I want to kill those people with a bad opinions.
But they're like they're like, no, I think I think I think millions of Barbie fans are like murder.
It's murder time.
Which members of the Academy live in some red states?
We can kill two birds with one stone.
Just drop a nuke on them.
See, the problem with red states is they don't have tall buildings.
Yeah, pretty funny.
It's funny because the America is America Ferreira, right?
That's the actress's name.
She got nominated for Best supporting actor, actress for the fucking speech she gives in the movie that I've seen despite not seeing the movie because everybody loves that speech and they share it online.
I can't watch it because America Ferrer looks just like my ex so I don't want to see her.
Yeah, totally.
That's why I didn't see Barbie.
It's funny because Lily Gladstone does look like one of my exes.
Oh, I was being very serious.
She looks identical to America Ferreira.
Cool, dude.
She sounds hot, bro.
Is that what you want me to say?
No.
I thought you thought I was making it up.
No, it's just funny.
Someone who looks like America Ferreira could like me, OK?
It's just funny.
Yeah, we both dated practically blockbuster actresses.
Oh, hopefully.
Oscar Noms, at least.
No, it's like if they, imagine, the backlash probably would have been even worse if they had snubbed America Ferrera.
They would be setting themselves on fire in front of Man's Chinese Theater.
Yeah.
Or whatever the Academy Awards is.
That speech did like transcend the movie, right?
Like you said, you saw it.
Uh, it seems pretty basic to me.
It seems like something I saw Tina Fey say, uh, 20- Not the content of it, but just the existence of it.
People were, like, sharing it like crazy, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, they say it's, like, the best moment in the whole movie.
Yeah.
Anyway, um...
Yeah.
So... What'd you expect, America?
You really expect Barbie to get more than three or four nominations, whatever it got?
Get real.
Alright?
Get real.
Not the world we're living in, folks.
I'm sorry.
Had to say it.
Alright, let's move on.
2016 prepared you for this moment.
Oh yeah, I can also think of... Man.
Ah.
Like, not to get too fucking macabre, but if you want to talk about Hillary, about women's issues, I know of a place in the world that's not too great to be a woman right now.
Jesus fucking Christ, you're tweeting about Barbie.
Like, not to... I don't know, man, just...
I'm reading here from Euronews.com.
Israel-Hamas war.
UN say women and children main victims of conflict as IDF hit Damascus.
This is from four days ago.
The latest updates from the ongoing conflict.
Women and children main victims of Israel-Hamas war with 16,000 kills.
So yeah, 16,000 of the 25,000 that we know of killed, but there's like no way to count the dead anymore.
Women and children are the main victims in the Israel-Hamas war with some 16,000 killed and an estimated two mothers losing their lives every hour since Hamas' surprise attack on Israel.
Yeah, but I guess it is also bad that Ryan Gosling got nominated for Best Actor.
Yeah, that is also bad.
I mean, I do understand, you know, like I think that's the thing is I understand enjoying these like Oscar things and being upset about this.
Yeah, I'm not saying like you have to always be upset about it or whatever.
We just know that Hillary Clinton is on the side of Israel, right?
I'm not saying like, how dare you care about the Oscars when this is happening?
I'm saying very specifically for Hillary Clinton.
Exactly.
That's exactly what I was going to say.
Yeah, because it's just it's absurd.
Like we know you're on Israel's side and you're fucking this is what you actually I don't know.
And it's it's just a tweet either way.
So it's not like I do, however, think.
She could culturally make a difference if she actually if she actually like stood up for Palestinian rights or whatever in this moment.
I think she could make a difference.
I think she could shift the Democratic Party into something coherent for for a few minutes.
But yeah, absolutely.
I'm you know, she she clearly doesn't want to.
Yeah, what I was kind of saying was basically if you want to talk about movies, talk about the movies and try not to involve Hillary Clinton in it.
Just, you know, just just you don't have to do that because then you are going to become like it's like we are going to make you are a dumb little idiot.
Your priorities are all weird.
Get mad about movies.
Please get mad about movies.
It's not a good move to like liken the lost to another war criminal.
I don't know.
We were watching Scarface last night and I did turn to Ani and I said, you know, like Tony Montana, he's got such cool vibes.
He's got such like, doesn't give a fuck kind of vibes.
He's kind of like Hillary Clinton.
He's kind of like Hillary Clinton.
I mean, yeah, in the sense that, you know, she's sick in the head and ruthless.
Anti-communist, too.
They're both extremely anti-communist because they're just political refugees who happen to be millionaires.
Yeah.
OK, anyway.
Yeah.
Thanks.
Thanks, Hillary, for standing up for women.
We appreciate it.
Okay, moving on.
Okay, moving moving on.
*music* When the party's over, it's over, but where do we run?
I've known this love for too many years We're not driven by hate, we're just slaves to fear And are we still lucky to be here?
Are we still lucky to be here?
Are we still lucky to be here?
I wish I could say something sane to wash away and annihilate the trauma that we save It might take just one reason inside to carry on
Okay, uh, next, next subject of the night, I just wanted to do a little, have a little, I don't know, fun, play a little game with the listeners.
I'm gonna read a tweet and then you tell me if you, you, like you tell, you know, talk to your earphones or talk to the car stereo or whatever and, uh, say, say who you think this tweet is about.
This is from Bob Beddingfield, verified on Twitter.
Doesn't surprise me one bit.
He always had that devil-worshipping, human-flesh-eating, anti-civilization vibe to me.
Um, this is about, uh, Not in Yahoo, right?
I think it's about frickin' Ozzy Osbourne.
That's who I think it's about.
It's about the lead singer of that band, Ghost.
He's really spooky to me.
Gut and ghost is like, what are you talking about?
I'm an obvious futurist.
Have you not read any of my books?
I like, I like anti-civilization.
Like, does he, is he actually mean like anti-civ anarchist?
Is that what he's referencing?
Or he just means like, if you're gay, you're actually anti-civilization.
I think that's, I think that's exactly what it is because you're not, you're not building lineage, therefore you're not building civilization, right?
They're going to go crazy when they find out there are de-growthers who are also gay.
Oh, you know who this is?
This is probably Thanos.
He's talking about Thanos?
Yeah, I think I think that this person tweeting is talking about about Thanos.
Yeah, I remember that guy.
Yeah, that make that would make sense because he did have those vibes to me.
What would he do?
Would he like clap his hands together to get rid of civilization, do you think?
I don't think he'd even need two hands.
No?
What would he do, what do you think?
He do a single hand clap That's how I picture it.
Like a kid, can you hear it?
Can you hear it?
Yeah.
But with the gauntlet on, it's extra powerful.
Alright, um... No, yeah, it doesn't surprise me one bit.
He always had that devil-worshipping, human-flesh-eating, anti-civilization vibe to me.
When you stop someone from going into the bathroom...
When you're securing the perimeter of the women's bathroom, and they look back at you with that anti-civilization stare.
Like, wow.
Been drinking too much fluoride.
No, this tweet about the devil-worshipping, human-flesh-eating, anti-civilization guy is about a Will Ferrell.
Will Ferrell is producing a movie about his best friend of a long time who just came out as trans and graciously apparently taught Will Ferrell all about being trans.
So he made a movie about it and he's kind of debuted that.
Let me play this clip here.
Baseline knowledge?
Zero.
I really, you know, I know I'd met trans people before.
I didn't have anyone personally in my life.
So this was all, you know, new territory for me, which is why I think this piece is so exciting for us to kind of put out there in the world.
Because I think it's a chance for, you know, all of us in the cis community to be able to That's a slur, Will.
I know you're on this learning journey.
Why don't you listen to a diversity of opinion?
What you just said was a hate crime.
Yeah, not cool, brother.
You're not allowed to say sis, dude.
If you're not familiar with, Elon Musk has said that the prefix cis is a slur.
That's like the new joke.
It's not that new.
It's been around for a year or two now.
And it's essentially like saying how we have always said that racist is the n-word for white people.
It's like the worst thing you can call a white person.
Apparently, yeah, they're taking cis on as that mantle.
I will say the phrase cis community is funny to me.
But that's, you know, he's learning and that's for day one.
He said he says day one.
I don't know.
I believe in a cis community.
It's like it's a found family.
You know, it's just one of the most welcoming communities I've ever been a part of.
Hey, uh, nice dick.
You've had that your whole life?
Cool.
Still feeling pretty good about your gender?
Yeah, man.
Hell yeah, dude.
That's why I go to the bathroom.
This is why.
That's what's so fucked up about it.
It's why I support trans people.
I want them to feel as good as I feel.
I don't go to the bathroom.
I don't go to the bathroom to go to the bathroom.
I go to the bathroom to finally know how I'm around other cis people.
Cause you never know outside of the bathroom.
I don't agree with that bathroom stuff.
I'm not, I'm not one of the bad cis.
I'm a, um, I'm a, I'm an ally.
No.
Yeah.
The cis community is pretty funny.
Wait, does this mean cis?
Like, like how, like, like black woman?
Is that what he means?
Cause that's not cool either.
He can't say that.
He doesn't know about the cis community.
I didn't realize this is four minutes long.
Okay.
I don't think we have to watch all of it.
This clip was shared by an account called I am at sheep lovelies.
That's their display name, but their at is different.
It's at I'm sheep lovelies.
So I don't know if they got it wrong or they're talking about their alt or something, but it's two different ads.
I don't know if I'm explaining this correctly.
Anyway, Will Ferrell is now working with Variety and Audible to normalize trans surgeries.
What people, they're already pretty normal, like normal doctors do them.
You know what I mean?
Like people who are in the system, people who write the guidelines and stuff, and kind of every step of the way, like from when you might start talking to somebody about your gender identity or whatever, it's all kind of normal now at this point.
I'm sorry.
We're already there.
I wish that they meant, you know, like that.
I mean, he might be doing this.
I don't know that, you know, him and his resources and the resources he has access to are by normalizing trans surgeries.
What they mean is they're making gender affirming surgeries more accessible to people.
They can't get them.
Is that is that what they mean?
No, they're just talking about raising awareness.
They're talking about being trans too much that I'm not going to be able to make people angry about trans people anymore.
But they go on.
What people might not remember is that Will was seen at a spirit cooking event with Marina Abramovic Abramovic.
I said it right.
Where they quote, pretend to eat human flesh is some kind of art.
They really did eat human flesh.
I, you know, I don't have the proof, but I, I, I know they did.
Yeah.
Cause this is quote, quote, pretend.
Yeah.
So they, so they really did eat it.
I've, I've, Oh, that's the video that you told me your friend said this all right.
I don't know.
I think we were about to maybe see that video.
Not only this, but he performed a, quote, fake satanic ritual in front of a live audience while they chanted, quote, this is not art.
See, that's how they get you.
That's how they trick you.
That's how they trick you, Tony, is they tell you this is just a fake.
This is it's for it's for goofs.
It's for laughs.
And, you know, that's how the Ouija board gets you, frankly.
This is some wild double talk, because it says, quote, pretend to eat human flesh is some kind of art.
And then goes on to say where he was chanting, this is not art.
Right.
He's just don't want us off.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
So he wow.
They're just saying it out loud now.
I think those clips are included in this video.
We have this ritual of the mind.
It's gonna, what I've been told is this will break me down.
It's not for the faint of heart.
So this is from the Chris Gethard show.
If you're not familiar, Chris Gethard's a funny comedian and podcaster who had like a, I think it was like a basic cable type show for a while.
And then he was on, I don't remember what network he was on, but it was good.
I haven't seen a lot of it, but I like him.
And Will Ferrell is on the show and he's in some sort of outfit.
He's got a blonde wig on and a NYC hat and a gold chain on.
And you're going to be my shaman and walk me through this thing.
I'm going to be your shaman if, you know, if you've got the guts to go there.
Remove the subject's clothes.
Now, Will Ferrell's in, like, an all-white suit with, like, an all-white bear-skin hooded cloak on, but it's white, and then he's wearing giant white antlers.
And yeah, Chris Gethard's in a robe and there's like people in body suit, black body suits.
And then a few people in white body suits is like, I don't know, attendants or congregants for this satanic ritual.
Yeah!
Let us stare upon his baby skin.
Okay, and while this is happening, she's edited in photos from an event where they are wearing white.
Because I think these white coats were like given out at the event.
Mm-hmm.
Looks like it.
He's wearing like a white coat over a regular sports coat.
But there's a bunch of people eating lunch at some event and everybody's wearing a white coat on top of, yeah, like this is Jack Abramoff or whatever.
Or Antonoff.
Antoff.
I don't know.
They're all wearing white coats and they're eating like pizza, obviously.
I don't think it's pretend babies.
Oh, but it represents because it's pizza.
All right.
I got it.
Mm-hmm.
And chest hair, which can be accurately summed up as not yet a man, but not still a boy.
Now the subject shall bathe in the blood of a gifted turtle.
This will make your show irresistible to viewers.
It will be like one of those live NBC musicals that makes everyone lose their goddamn minds.
Yeah, I can see how this would scare a stupid loser.
Yeah, a dumb little idiot baby for sure.
So I sympathize with them in that in that respect.
They think that they think Zooland is a documentary.
They're like, I also saw him be like an underworld globalist who was calling the shots.
I never liked, I haven't liked Will Ferrell since I saw that audition performance, that audition reel at SNL, where he very clearly, even though he's probably trying to hide it, you know, you can see, for the keen eye, can see he's literally a cat boy.
In that audition, he practically plays with yarn.
I was suspect in the beginning.
I'm like, I know they got a litter box backstage somewhere for him.
And I'm like, you're not fooling me, but listen, you're a man.
You are not a cat.
Right.
Some of these responses were were great.
Yeah, Filth said the Chris Gethard show was so much fun.
I'm so happy I enjoy things and not scared of everything Like you seem to be and I am at Sheepy Lovely says because you must be a dim-witted sheep.
Bye I liked this response.
Megan the Mustang said, Will Ferrell too?
No.
I spent my entire life up until the middle of 2023 purposely not giving a darn about celebrities outside of their work on screen slash stage just because I thought caring that much was weird.
Now I'm actively observing.
Man, Awakening is a wild ride.
Brutal.
It is.
It is.
You can't even.
Now I can't take Kimo Sabe anymore.
You can't even do that.
Now I have to think of different words when I get screwed by a merchant.
It's so fucked up.
Give me the old words back.
I'm going to miss asking strangers who I have something slightly in common with if we're best friends now.
I'm still going to say jerry-rigged.
You're braver than me, though.
Not giving that up.
Not giving after after Germany's behavior in the Israel-Gaza conflict.
Yeah, that's right.
We're saying Jerry.
I respect that.
Saying Jerry rigged all day, folks.
I love she's like for my whole life.
She's probably old.
She's probably like, you know, 27 or something like that.
My whole life, stupidly, I didn't care.
I couldn't care less about celebrities because I thought that would be like a little weird.
You care too much about celebrities.
Then I took a dive off the highest cliff I could find.
I decided to make up for lost time of not caring about celebrities by caring about them in the most insane way possible.
Yeah, absolutely.
I like, yeah, sure.
Caring about, I thought caring about celebrities is weird.
Now I'm going to care about them so much I can't talk to my kids anymore.
Well, because you're not, because it goes beyond the celebrity, you know, it's like who Will Ferrell like dates doesn't affect me, but who he's bringing to his cult, that affects me directly.
I mean, what?
Will Ferrell thinks like I have any goodwill towards him after what, that fucking Christmas movie he did with Ryan Reynolds?
You gotta be giving me an old school or a kick, at least a kicking and screaming.
If you want me to defend you from these accusations.
Yeah, it's been a long time.
You know, it's been 20 years since Elf.
What do you got from him, man?
Come on.
I guess he did just say he's making a movie about his trans best friend.
All right.
So I do think he's a baby eating civilization destroyer, but he's a good friend.
Yeah, at least that at least is a good friend.
So it's so like hold on now the thing is.
It's funny how all you really need to know all they they need to know to believe anything else more fantastical is just that Will Ferrell doesn't hate trans people.
So that's enough to believe that he also eats human flesh, right?
They believe it about all celebrities.
So I mean, this made it easier.
That what I was going to say is like, well, we will probably revisit this subject because I haven't even begun to scratch the surface on like how people I don't know.
It can be an ugly place to be really the anti-trans places can be pretty ugly.
So I kind of got to stay away from them for the most part.
But I think this is going to bring about a lot of really insane memes.
So I'm going to keep my eye open for this.
It is fun to just see how stupid those people are because they're really good at making themselves look really stupid.
Yeah, I gotta wade through a lot of other stuff to find out, you know.
Thank you.
We salute you for that.
Somebody was like, your profile pic is weird.
And... They're like, and what the fuck is that supposed to mean?
You don't even know.
Let's see, are you triple vaxxed and you received your fourth booster?
You voted for Bi-Dan?
I'm gonna stop right here.
Uh, what is Bi-Dan?
B-I-D capital A lowercase n. But the B is lowercase too.
Uh, is this just like, is this like double disrespect?
Like, I'm not capitalizing the first letter, but I want you to know that I could have.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I have that.
My shift key works.
Yeah, I know how to use it.
I just decided not to because I hate you.
Why is it an A instead of an E?
Oh, maybe he means he's like an anarchist.
Maybe A stands for Antichrist.
No, they don't think Biden's an Antichrist.
They don't want to give him that much clout.
I don't know.
They do say the Antichrist will be beloved by all.
But that Obama's already here.
Right, okay.
I don't know what Bi-Dan means.
Yeah.
Sounds like they're having a hard time.
That's honestly what Bi-Dan makes me think.
You hate the orange man?
Oh, all of the above.
Stay the fuck off my page, idiot Normie.
You have no clue!
And you only have two to four years left, so we don't give two shits about you or your idiotic opinions.
Bye bye!
Wait, isn't isn't like Trump supposed to be the president next year?
If this is if you're if you're this person, are you?
But there's something even more.
More like since he is going on, it's going to take out the whole world.
Two to four years.
It's the Vax, Tony, you're going to drop.
You're going to drop dead of the Vax any day now, but especially in two to four years.
As long as I'm like asleep or I don't feel anything.
Uh, no, God said he was going to give you those shakes that those white women fake.
No!
On TikTok.
He's going to give them to you for real and nobody's going to believe you.
No one's going to believe me.
Okay, we get it, Tony.
The joke is old.
Stop doing the Harlem shake.
Ha ha ha ha.
See, that's why you should have stuck up for those bored suburban housewives.
My favorite part about them, the late ones, is when they go, when they like are doing it and they're like, you can't fake this.
Well, you said it, so I guess you're right.
I guess you can't fake it.
See, first they came for the influencers, the shake fluencers, the jitters.
What do they call them?
What she got?
She got the shakes.
She got the jitters.
She got the the sizzles.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yes.
I because, yeah, it's I don't know if they have a hashtag.
I don't know if they have their own personal.
Cause it can't be diagnosed, right?
It's like what they have is not, does not even exist.
No.
So they probably call them tremors and that's not cool because that, that is, I associate that with a good movie and I don't want to be let down.
I don't want to be thinking about, you know, your, your palsy or whatever while I'm watching tremors.
That's just me though.
Yeah.
Um, There might be more in here.
I think there might.
Yeah, I loved this one.
Perlina says, responds to the video.
I sometimes wonder if they don't make a pact with the devil to get ahead in their profession.
Oh, really?
Perlina?
Sometimes you wonder that?
I am at sheepy love these replies.
That's exactly what they do.
What do you think I made this video for?
Don't take credit for this shit.
Oh, you suddenly had the idea after watching my video that they make a pact with the devil.
How'd you come to that conclusion?
It's like, Perlina, that's actually that's the baseline to get in here.
Like, you got to at least do that.
Like all anybody whose name, you know, that's a celebrity.
They've all sold their soul to the devil.
You got to.
That's that's just how to get in the door.
They've done.
That's like not even the worst.
That's the first bait.
It's your baby step.
That's like, yeah, that's like saying, oh, wow, he took off the training wheels.
Wow.
He's so extreme on that bike now.
You know, no, you first you make the pact with the devil and then you kill the younglings or whatever.
Do the backflip.
Yeah.
Alright, we should end it here though, folks.
We're gonna play it by ear on Saturday for Death Chat 500 because Ani's going in for knee surgery.

Plausible deniability, I swear I've never heard of it.
And I can close the door on us, but the rift still exists, and I know you're in it.
Hours of phrases I've memorized, thousands of lines on the page All of my notes in a desolate pile, I haven't touched an edge And I can burn the evidence, but I can't burn the pain, and I can't forget it
How does it feel to be an expert in a dying field?
And how do you know it's over when you can't let go?
You can't let go, you can't stop, you can't rewind Love has learned over time 'Til you're an expert, let it die The city is painted with memory
The water will never run clear The birds and the bees and the flowers and trees, they know that we've both been here.
And I can plead the country for the worst of the year, but I'll come back to it.
How does it feel to be an expert in a dying field?
It's over when you can't let go, you can't let go, you can't stop, you can't rewind.
