WEBVTT
00:00:06.150 --> 00:00:07.049
Don't even bother.
00:00:07.932 --> 00:00:08.164
Okay.
00:00:09.025 --> 00:00:15.369
Did, did you ever wonder why we have to start the new year in the middle of.
00:00:15.925 --> 00:00:20.425
Season first of all, but also like the middle of the most fucking depressing season of the year.
00:00:21.144 --> 00:00:22.385
No, but it is really depressing
00:00:23.574 --> 00:00:33.804
and like it doesn't make any sense because the spring is when new life blooms, so why the hell wouldn't that be the new year?
00:00:35.844 --> 00:00:36.534
Theoretically,
00:00:36.625 --> 00:00:39.384
like why wouldn't you start the new year on a new season?
00:00:40.585 --> 00:00:41.005
Right,
00:00:41.484 --> 00:00:41.755
right.
00:00:43.659 --> 00:00:55.600
Turns out they used to, so the new year used to be around March 25th ish, that Vernal Equinox, which is the beginning of spring.
00:00:55.990 --> 00:00:56.320
Okay.
00:00:57.700 --> 00:01:05.920
So like ancient, ancient people who were very in tune with the stars, the moon, the earth in general.
00:01:06.084 --> 00:01:06.745
The world general.
00:01:06.745 --> 00:01:08.125
Like scientists or like witches?
00:01:08.364 --> 00:01:10.344
No, I'm not going witchy.
00:01:10.344 --> 00:01:11.125
Woo woo shit.
00:01:11.125 --> 00:01:11.155
Okay.
00:01:11.155 --> 00:01:12.984
I'm talking about like just ancient people.
00:01:12.984 --> 00:01:14.545
There's whole structures.
00:01:14.605 --> 00:01:14.814
Sure.
00:01:14.875 --> 00:01:24.894
Ancient structures that were built so that this one skylight we'll say, lined up perfectly with some celestial body on this exact significant day.
00:01:25.135 --> 00:01:29.034
Like they were so in tune with the world around 'em.
00:01:29.034 --> 00:01:30.715
They knew when to plant.
00:01:30.834 --> 00:01:33.144
You know when your corn gets this high, you plant your beans.
00:01:33.564 --> 00:01:35.155
They don't need a calendar.
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:36.430
They didn't need any of that.
00:01:36.430 --> 00:01:37.840
They were all super in tune with that.
00:01:38.709 --> 00:01:45.700
And I swear that's how you know when you watch shows like Game of Thrones and these women just know that they're pregnant.
00:01:46.450 --> 00:01:46.900
Yes.
00:01:46.930 --> 00:01:48.189
And it's like, what the hell?
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:49.659
How do you just know that?
00:01:50.290 --> 00:01:55.031
I mean, obviously we know like, but they seemed to have just known.
00:01:55.031 --> 00:01:56.081
I know that's a TV show.
00:01:57.042 --> 00:02:05.831
It's probably because they were so in tune with the lunar cycle, which also happens to correlate very closely to most women's cycles.
00:02:05.831 --> 00:02:10.002
Like they just, the lunar calendar seemed to make a lot of sense.
00:02:10.331 --> 00:02:13.872
Well, and if, if Game of Thrones is, I get it.
00:02:13.872 --> 00:02:19.122
It's also, let's just call it biblical 'cause they, they also knew that back then too.
00:02:19.181 --> 00:02:19.391
Yeah.
00:02:19.391 --> 00:02:22.361
You know, in, in Bible times when you're reading the Bible, they just.
00:02:22.662 --> 00:02:23.231
No.
00:02:23.442 --> 00:02:23.771
Yeah,
00:02:23.801 --> 00:02:26.231
so-and-so is like, and she's, and now with child.
00:02:26.231 --> 00:02:26.921
She's with child.
00:02:26.921 --> 00:02:27.252
Yeah.
00:02:27.461 --> 00:02:30.401
So Game of Thrones took that probably from the Bible.
00:02:30.401 --> 00:02:31.451
I would just like to point that out.
00:02:31.481 --> 00:02:31.842
Yeah.
00:02:33.162 --> 00:02:37.632
So I went down a rabbit hole about the calendar.
00:02:37.722 --> 00:02:38.070
Perfect.
00:02:38.771 --> 00:02:51.671
But I'm gonna pause that and go on a little bird walk for a second, because it's probably no secret that I And you.
00:02:52.632 --> 00:03:03.671
You and I are very conspiracy minded, and when you are a tinfoil hat wearer, you can find the conspiracy in anything.
00:03:05.171 --> 00:03:10.692
So I'm gonna say, even if you're a normie, and if you've never heard that term, then you're a normie.
00:03:11.171 --> 00:03:18.401
If you think we landed on the moon, if you think that those are just contraras in the sky, you're a normie.
00:03:18.401 --> 00:03:19.512
And that's no judgment.
00:03:19.512 --> 00:03:20.711
I'm just telling you.
00:03:22.122 --> 00:03:24.731
Then this'll just be a fun history lesson.
00:03:26.141 --> 00:03:26.382
Perfect.
00:03:26.382 --> 00:03:28.331
If you wanna find the conspiracy, you find it.
00:03:29.368 --> 00:03:29.758
Okay.
00:03:31.468 --> 00:03:33.808
how did we go for New Year?
00:03:34.229 --> 00:03:40.049
The new year being the vernal equinox to January 1st.
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:43.783
I had no say
00:03:44.503 --> 00:03:45.403
Julius Caesar.
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:47.210
Okay.
00:03:47.270 --> 00:03:52.781
So prior to Caesar.
00:03:52.991 --> 00:04:01.270
Prior to the Roman Empire, ancient people, like I just said, mostly used astronomy and lunar cycles to help keep track of time.
00:04:03.110 --> 00:04:05.341
they have Sumerian calendars that date back, two th.
00:04:05.885 --> 00:04:13.036
3000 bc each Sumerian month consisted of 29 or 30 days according to the lunar cycle.
00:04:13.036 --> 00:04:19.425
The lunar cycle is about 11 days off from the solar calendar.
00:04:20.505 --> 00:04:27.396
So the Mayans had the most accurate calendar, because they used lunar and solar.
00:04:29.646 --> 00:04:29.766
Now.
00:04:30.636 --> 00:04:39.545
For my conspiracy friends, there is a thought going around the internet that says that the world really did end on December 21st, 2012.
00:04:40.925 --> 00:04:43.716
Like the Mayan calendar allegedly said that it would.
00:04:43.925 --> 00:04:46.596
And we're, we've all just been living in a simulation this whole time.
00:04:46.656 --> 00:04:47.196
What?
00:04:47.196 --> 00:04:48.081
Like lost everyone?
00:04:48.271 --> 00:04:48.880
Like lost.
00:04:49.990 --> 00:04:51.725
Anyway, that's not what we're talking about today.
00:04:51.935 --> 00:04:52.295
So.
00:04:55.007 --> 00:04:59.687
The Roman Empire came along and decided that they needed to make their own calendar.
00:05:00.918 --> 00:05:06.947
However, it was only, this is my favorite part of this.
00:05:07.038 --> 00:05:15.588
The original Roman calendar was only 10 months, so 304 days, meaning that the other 61 days were just dead space.
00:05:16.608 --> 00:05:18.798
Like they still existed, but they weren't on any kind.
00:05:18.798 --> 00:05:20.372
It was just like no man's land.
00:05:21.572 --> 00:05:24.052
Mm. Like free day, I guess.
00:05:24.052 --> 00:05:24.903
Like free dress day.
00:05:25.353 --> 00:05:25.622
Yeah.
00:05:26.012 --> 00:05:28.052
Was everyone on vacation during those days?
00:05:28.083 --> 00:05:28.382
Right.
00:05:28.382 --> 00:05:31.173
You know, was it just kind of the prescribed time of vacation?
00:05:31.202 --> 00:05:32.552
'cause it doesn't count, they're just
00:05:32.583 --> 00:05:32.882
Yeah.
00:05:32.913 --> 00:05:33.663
Free days.
00:05:33.663 --> 00:05:34.442
It's just nothing.
00:05:34.533 --> 00:05:35.103
Nothing days.
00:05:35.132 --> 00:05:35.432
Yeah.
00:05:35.942 --> 00:05:36.213
Okay.
00:05:36.843 --> 00:05:43.173
So around 700 bc the Roman emperor that I can't pronounce, added January and February to the end of the year.
00:05:43.562 --> 00:05:43.742
Okay.
00:05:43.742 --> 00:05:49.833
And so February was at the end of the year, which is why it only had 28 days.
00:05:50.403 --> 00:05:55.262
Because fuck February, I guess like it was just an afterthought.
00:05:57.723 --> 00:06:05.583
And February, I wrote this down that it was considered unlucky, an unlucky time, and I don't remember why.
00:06:05.762 --> 00:06:06.663
So sorry.
00:06:07.562 --> 00:06:09.512
Unlike Katusha, I do not cite my sources.
00:06:10.773 --> 00:06:11.973
We're just full of chaos here.
00:06:12.483 --> 00:06:18.572
So by first century BC, the Roman calendar was a hot mess and.
00:06:19.502 --> 00:06:24.062
Starting to, the confusion per usual was political fuckery.
00:06:24.843 --> 00:06:25.353
of course.
00:06:26.762 --> 00:06:30.589
The Pontifex Maximus and the College of Pontiffs.
00:06:31.262 --> 00:06:34.473
But this is first century bc, so not Ponts like the Pope yet.
00:06:34.983 --> 00:06:39.182
We'll get to the Pope had the authority to alter the calendar.
00:06:39.872 --> 00:06:40.742
They sometimes did.
00:06:40.742 --> 00:06:45.692
So to reduce or extend the term of a particular magistrate or other public official
00:06:47.673 --> 00:06:48.603
Political fuckery.
00:06:48.603 --> 00:06:48.783
Yeah.
00:06:50.012 --> 00:06:56.552
So Julius Caesar initiated a reform that resulted in the establishment of the Julian Calendar.
00:06:58.052 --> 00:07:03.362
So the months, everybody, I feel like we've all heard that.
00:07:03.362 --> 00:07:05.132
Like Julius and Augustus.
00:07:05.132 --> 00:07:05.223
Yes.
00:07:06.557 --> 00:07:07.458
July and August.
00:07:07.817 --> 00:07:13.728
Well, those were originally Quintiles and sex Tillis, meaning fifth and six months.
00:07:14.057 --> 00:07:14.538
Okay,
00:07:14.653 --> 00:07:17.778
so Whoopty do, and then of course, September through December.
00:07:17.778 --> 00:07:25.338
Roman numerals, 7, 8, 9, and 10 because they were originally like July through December was originally 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
00:07:26.658 --> 00:07:31.757
But then they added January and February, so it got all messed up.
00:07:33.271 --> 00:07:33.721
Okay.
00:07:33.872 --> 00:07:36.901
Back to my copious notes.
00:07:36.932 --> 00:07:38.012
I lost my place.
00:07:41.041 --> 00:07:45.411
So Julius Caesar made January the start of the new year.
00:07:46.802 --> 00:07:47.072
Okay.
00:07:49.112 --> 00:07:50.966
Um, not clear why.
00:07:53.177 --> 00:08:00.706
This is just like with the Titanic, every which way you turn, you can find different answers for different ques.
00:08:00.737 --> 00:08:01.817
Like for the same question.
00:08:01.817 --> 00:08:03.466
It's bonkers, it's historical.
00:08:03.466 --> 00:08:05.297
We're talking thousands of years ago.
00:08:05.656 --> 00:08:06.947
Nobody really knows.
00:08:07.637 --> 00:08:10.127
But these are like the generally accepted facts that I have found.
00:08:11.896 --> 00:08:20.687
So by 1582, the Julian calendar was cumulatively off time because.
00:08:22.201 --> 00:08:26.312
The earth rotates around the sun.
00:08:27.271 --> 00:08:33.211
Every 365.2422 days.
00:08:35.461 --> 00:08:46.142
Okay, so then at this point they're off by like 15 days, and that's a problem when you want Easter.
00:08:46.562 --> 00:08:51.121
The most important holiday of the Catholic church to fall on this one day.
00:08:51.121 --> 00:08:52.081
And I meant to look it up.
00:08:52.111 --> 00:09:01.532
It's in my brain somewhere of how they, to this day calculate when Easter is, and it has to do with the moon, but I don't remember enough to like regurgitate it back.
00:09:01.562 --> 00:09:08.611
So Pope Gregory the 13th we're in 1582, now came up with the Gregorian calendar.
00:09:08.792 --> 00:09:14.672
I would love to go back in time to see if he was like, yo, my name is Pope Gregory and we're gonna call it the Gregorian calendar.
00:09:15.091 --> 00:09:17.131
Or if that's just what it became known as.
00:09:17.402 --> 00:09:18.902
'cause I could see it going either way.
00:09:21.182 --> 00:09:27.542
So he made January one, the official start of the new year and declared it for all Catholic countries.
00:09:27.542 --> 00:09:30.481
So Spain, Italy, France, all went, yep.
00:09:30.542 --> 00:09:31.111
Okay.
00:09:31.922 --> 00:09:32.522
Copy that.
00:09:34.711 --> 00:09:43.461
Britain the Americas did not follow suit until much later, like 17 hundreds.
00:09:45.432 --> 00:10:07.602
So by, well, I saw something that said in 1582 in order to SR get the Gregorian calendar back on track, it went from October 4th, 1582, and then the very next day was October 15th, 1582.
00:10:07.602 --> 00:10:10.932
Oh, And then by 1752.
00:10:11.653 --> 00:10:29.893
When England and American colonies decided to get on board with this new calendar, the discrepancy between a solar year and the Julian Calendar had grown by even more so that the calendar used in England and its colonies was 11 days out of sync.
00:10:30.283 --> 00:10:31.482
So they did the same thing.
00:10:31.873 --> 00:10:32.232
Okay,
00:10:32.863 --> 00:10:38.442
so England and America just dropped 11 days for September of 1752.
00:10:39.102 --> 00:10:43.212
It's also unclear if the year of 1750 ever even happened in America.
00:10:45.258 --> 00:10:48.643
Oh, and this is according to like the Connecticut State Library.
00:10:49.993 --> 00:10:59.592
So China adopted the Gregorian calendar in 1912, but continues to obviously use its lunar calendar for like its zodiac things.
00:10:59.597 --> 00:10:59.697
Okay.
00:11:00.432 --> 00:11:01.363
Religious purposes.
00:11:01.363 --> 00:11:05.173
A lot of countries still use their own lunar calendars for religious purposes.
00:11:05.773 --> 00:11:12.942
Russia switched to the Gregorian calendar in 1918 and Greece in 1923.
00:11:13.722 --> 00:11:14.712
That kind of blew my mind.
00:11:15.403 --> 00:11:18.763
So they were all just on scattered time, uhhuh frames and Wow.
00:11:18.822 --> 00:11:19.092
Yeah.
00:11:19.092 --> 00:11:19.842
In the in between.
00:11:19.932 --> 00:11:20.263
Yeah.
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:27.538
the Gregorian calendar really only differs from the Julian year in like its implementation of leap days, and that is so convoluted.
00:11:28.557 --> 00:11:29.068
Barf.
00:11:29.068 --> 00:11:29.938
We're not going there.
00:11:30.578 --> 00:11:50.682
So before the Gregorian reform, many civilizations followed their own lunar based calendars with 13 months of 28 days each totaling 364 days with one day out of time or a year day, or there were lots of names for it, they usually used that day as a time for reflection and renewal.
00:11:50.863 --> 00:11:51.163
Okay.
00:11:52.732 --> 00:11:55.317
This system obviously wasn't just mathematical, it was.
00:11:55.972 --> 00:11:58.852
It followed natural patterns.
00:11:58.852 --> 00:12:06.143
And again, I'm not trying to get woowoo, it's just the world that they knew and it made sense to them.
00:12:07.186 --> 00:12:08.475
And wait, which calendar was this?
00:12:08.475 --> 00:12:09.255
The 13 month
00:12:09.285 --> 00:12:09.375
this?
00:12:09.375 --> 00:12:10.696
Yeah, the 13 month calendar.
00:12:10.696 --> 00:12:12.916
It's uniform, it's predictable.
00:12:12.916 --> 00:12:13.846
Everything's 28 days.
00:12:13.905 --> 00:12:15.375
Everything's 28 days.
00:12:15.885 --> 00:12:21.706
The month starts on the first on a Sunday, and you know, it's just cut and dried.
00:12:21.706 --> 00:12:22.605
It's four weeks.
00:12:23.416 --> 00:12:23.716
Boom.
00:12:23.895 --> 00:12:24.285
Done.
00:12:24.436 --> 00:12:24.615
Okay.
00:12:24.645 --> 00:12:25.139
Easy peasy.
00:12:26.625 --> 00:12:29.745
Uh, fun fact, Ethiopia still operates on a 13 month system.
00:12:31.456 --> 00:12:32.836
What's their last month called?
00:12:33.166 --> 00:12:34.005
Oh, I didn't even look.
00:12:34.125 --> 00:12:38.716
I wonder if it's just a free month and like, this is the month of the wild and free.
00:12:38.716 --> 00:12:39.946
I mean, what are you gonna call it?
00:12:40.306 --> 00:12:40.936
Right?
00:12:41.895 --> 00:12:42.076
it up.
00:12:42.076 --> 00:12:49.635
So the word month itself is related to the moon, and it originally measured how long it took for the moon to complete a cycle around the earth.
00:12:49.905 --> 00:12:51.225
So they come from the same route.
00:12:53.086 --> 00:13:08.446
Anyway, so back in the day when the new year, there was not like New Year's Day, but when the new year was celebrated at the end of March, typically the last week of March.
00:13:10.635 --> 00:13:17.895
They had mostly in France, a festival, a week long festival called The Feast of Fools.
00:13:19.336 --> 00:13:27.196
Hey everyone, if you've seen Hunchback of Notre Dame, the you would know that they have the Feast of Fools in
00:13:27.196 --> 00:13:27.735
Paris.
00:13:28.005 --> 00:13:28.485
Okay.
00:13:29.446 --> 00:13:36.645
And it sounds like Mardi Gras plus, you know, Renaissance Fair, like a week of just drunken nonsense.
00:13:36.706 --> 00:13:37.125
Yes.
00:13:37.755 --> 00:13:45.466
And so once they implemented the Gregorian calendar in, like I said, mostly France, it's not like they had CNN.
00:13:46.530 --> 00:13:50.431
Breaking news to tell'em that that wasn't the new year anymore.
00:13:50.910 --> 00:13:54.465
And so they started becoming known as the April Fools.
00:13:55.558 --> 00:14:00.688
Oh, the people who were still celebrating the New year in the spring.
00:14:00.958 --> 00:14:01.349
Okay.
00:14:02.969 --> 00:14:05.158
Because the Feast of Fools rolled into April.
00:14:07.649 --> 00:14:10.828
So that's all the history things.
00:14:10.859 --> 00:14:12.928
Now is this just.
00:14:13.558 --> 00:14:22.948
Does it just make good and logical sense that the world have a uniform way to keep track of time?
00:14:23.908 --> 00:14:30.239
Or was it a way to give a centralized institution more control?
00:14:32.874 --> 00:14:33.793
I'm gonna say I'm Catholic.
00:14:33.793 --> 00:14:34.313
You're Catholic.
00:14:34.313 --> 00:14:38.818
We both love and appreciate our faith, but we both have no.
00:14:39.778 --> 00:14:43.769
Illusions as to the perfectness of the humans running the church.
00:14:43.769 --> 00:14:44.009
Sure.
00:14:44.188 --> 00:14:56.999
And back in the day, I mean, there's been a lot of corrupt nonsense that has happened, so I can definitely question and criticize that, of course, with leaving my faith intact.
00:14:56.999 --> 00:15:07.889
So the Catholic church definitely benefited from dictating time itself, so moving away from natural rhythms and timekeeping.
00:15:08.323 --> 00:15:16.754
Helps keep people def dependent on artificial schedules and disconnected from their own connection to nature and the wisdom that comes with that.
00:15:19.754 --> 00:15:32.144
By reforming the calendar, the church demonstrated its scientific capability and authority cementing its role in setting the standard for measuring time, which was adopted by most nations.
00:15:32.144 --> 00:15:36.823
I think it's like 90% of countries in the world and.
00:15:37.168 --> 00:16:01.568
Part of the reason that I have found that they did that, like I said, is to keep Easter in the springtime, and a lot of prominent Catholic apologists today will tell you that no, the Catholic church was not taking Pagan customs and adopting them in to their customs to try to convert the pagans.
00:16:03.958 --> 00:16:05.158
They make a good case for that.
00:16:05.158 --> 00:16:23.788
But I have a really hard time believing that really and truly because the way I grew up and the things that I studied growing up, I know about the things that correlate with Halloween and the things that correlate with Easter, and there's just too much crossover for me to really, truly believe that that wasn't happening.
00:16:23.788 --> 00:16:25.948
Because really it's a brilliant marketing strategy.
00:16:26.938 --> 00:16:27.808
Here's these pagans.
00:16:27.808 --> 00:16:32.099
We want them to be Catholics at that time, Christians,'cause that's all there was.
00:16:32.833 --> 00:16:37.394
So we're gonna take their things and go, yo, we have that too, but better.
00:16:38.384 --> 00:16:45.793
So this was a way to control those pagans a little more.
00:16:45.793 --> 00:16:46.874
Prove their authority.
00:16:47.264 --> 00:16:48.134
Why don't you come over here?
00:16:48.134 --> 00:16:49.994
We know we literally control time.
00:16:50.443 --> 00:16:51.764
You may as well get on our team.
00:16:53.129 --> 00:16:54.283
that's just my thought.
00:16:54.374 --> 00:16:57.193
So then I read.
00:16:58.933 --> 00:17:10.544
Some speculation that the current calendar benefits banks and governments because the uneven months make it more difficult for regular people like me and you to keep track of bills, interest, taxes, et cetera.
00:17:12.163 --> 00:17:18.913
How much thought have you put into the length of the quarters of the year, like the fiscal quarters?
00:17:19.903 --> 00:17:20.653
Probably not a lot.
00:17:20.653 --> 00:17:20.894
Right?
00:17:20.894 --> 00:17:23.023
I have put zero thought into it until yesterday.
00:17:23.864 --> 00:17:25.838
Quarter one is 90 days.
00:17:26.653 --> 00:17:26.713
Okay.
00:17:27.358 --> 00:17:29.278
January, February, March 31, 28.
00:17:29.278 --> 00:17:32.699
31, 90 days, quarter 2 91.
00:17:32.699 --> 00:17:34.709
Days 30, 31.
00:17:34.709 --> 00:17:40.828
30 quarter, 3 92 days, quarter 4 92 days.
00:17:43.108 --> 00:17:44.548
Like so how are you?
00:17:44.578 --> 00:17:50.804
How are we calculating the interest if everything's happening on the first of the month, the 15th of the month, the 30th of the month?
00:17:50.878 --> 00:17:52.078
How do we, what tax?
00:17:52.199 --> 00:17:54.838
Like let's keep it confusing.
00:17:55.828 --> 00:18:02.848
That we tell you how much you have to pay or like now you have to guess how much taxes you owe, and if you get it wrong, you go to jail.
00:18:03.088 --> 00:18:03.659
Crazy.
00:18:05.489 --> 00:18:19.709
So a guy named Moses Cosworth in 1902 proposed a solution that we go back to the 13 months of 28 days with the year day.
00:18:19.709 --> 00:18:20.878
That's not part of any month.
00:18:21.209 --> 00:18:24.848
So like Washington, DC is not a state.
00:18:26.308 --> 00:18:27.689
The year day is not a month.
00:18:28.709 --> 00:18:30.538
There's a leap day added every four years.
00:18:30.989 --> 00:18:34.199
Perfect quarters of exactly 91 days, 13 weeks.
00:18:35.919 --> 00:18:45.638
a lot of people, international businesses, league of Nations, supported it seriously considered at adapting it, adopting it.
00:18:45.638 --> 00:18:46.028
Hello.
00:18:47.118 --> 00:18:48.169
lots of scientists.
00:18:48.288 --> 00:18:51.499
George Eastman, the Kodak founder, was totally on board with it.
00:18:53.193 --> 00:18:58.743
It failed because religious leaders said, absolutely not.
00:18:58.743 --> 00:19:00.394
It disrupts the Sabbath cycle.
00:19:02.044 --> 00:19:05.253
Governments resisted because of tax overhaul.
00:19:06.743 --> 00:19:16.594
Banks totally resisted it because of interest calculation losses, and so they all said, no, it's culture, cultural inertia.
00:19:16.773 --> 00:19:18.364
We're too big to change now.
00:19:18.814 --> 00:19:19.864
Nothing we can do about it now.
00:19:22.637 --> 00:19:35.449
So whether you, whether you see the nefarious in it or not, it's really hard to argue that the adaptation of the Gregorian son of a bitch, the adoption, these are my own notes.
00:19:35.598 --> 00:19:43.519
The adoption of the Gregorian calendar has disconnected us all from like nature, our own logic, our own wisdom.
00:19:44.673 --> 00:19:52.294
And that's part of why I've always said New Year's resolutions are just bullshit because this is the coldest, darkest grossest time of the year.
00:19:52.564 --> 00:19:54.064
I wanna just hibernate in my house.
00:19:54.064 --> 00:20:00.784
I don't want to get up and do things But the second that Vernal Equinox hits, I'm like, hell yeah, let's clean the house, buddy.
00:20:01.263 --> 00:20:03.064
So there's a lot to that.
00:20:05.344 --> 00:20:12.094
And I spent this whole morning thinking a lot about my Normie friends and.
00:20:12.979 --> 00:20:15.558
Conspiracies and like what that actually means.
00:20:15.558 --> 00:20:26.419
And I don't think, I don't know that Pope Gregory the 13th was like, let's just f all these peasants and change the calendar.
00:20:26.778 --> 00:20:33.439
But I do think that there is a group of people who run the world.
00:20:33.919 --> 00:20:39.259
I don't know who they are, so I just, I'm gonna call 'em, they, and they have power.
00:20:39.259 --> 00:20:40.249
It's not about money.
00:20:40.953 --> 00:20:44.584
The people who are after the money are like mid-level managers.
00:20:45.213 --> 00:20:48.784
There's a whole other class of people above them that just want the power.
00:20:49.534 --> 00:20:51.784
And like I've said, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
00:20:52.173 --> 00:20:55.594
And I think that money does weird things to people.
00:20:56.493 --> 00:21:09.874
And so if these controlling people now have access to corrupt these mid, mid-level managers with money, then they can get a lot of people on board to do some really shady shit.
00:21:11.298 --> 00:21:31.009
And my very innocuous non conspiracy example of that is grocery store products, any products, but like you think about going to the grocery store and this bag of chips has less and less and less chips in it over time.
00:21:32.058 --> 00:21:32.959
And then.
00:21:34.249 --> 00:21:39.648
They finally make the packaging a little bit smaller to accommodate those less and less chips, right?
00:21:39.648 --> 00:21:42.259
So they've lost like 30% of the chips.
00:21:42.949 --> 00:21:47.598
And then, oh look, the price went up by 15% because inflation.
00:21:48.828 --> 00:21:53.088
And then when people are like, what the hell, I used to get way more chips than this.
00:21:53.209 --> 00:21:56.818
Then they come out and go, look, we've added 25% more chips.
00:21:58.638 --> 00:22:01.249
And then they raise the price and over and over and over again.
00:22:01.249 --> 00:22:01.578
That's.
00:22:02.209 --> 00:22:07.038
I brought that up when I was like 19, and somebody in my life was like, no, that's bullshit.
00:22:07.038 --> 00:22:07.729
They're not doing that.
00:22:08.088 --> 00:22:14.028
And then it was actually in a marketing and business class that I took in college, like, yes, they 100% do that.
00:22:14.028 --> 00:22:15.558
That is so well known now.
00:22:16.338 --> 00:22:20.148
But in order for that to work, everybody has to be on board, all of the producers.
00:22:21.169 --> 00:22:23.298
And so that's happening.
00:22:24.828 --> 00:22:30.019
So this calendar manipulation might not have started off as like a super nefarious thing, but it.
00:22:31.804 --> 00:22:40.564
It benefited some people in financial ways and so it's hard to not, it's hard for me to not see the conspiracy in it.
00:22:41.913 --> 00:22:54.124
And then the really fun part about it, if you want to go really crazy conspiracies, which I don't know how I feel about this at all, but when you're looking up calendar conspiracies, have you ever heard of the phantom time theory?
00:22:54.663 --> 00:22:55.144
No.
00:22:55.773 --> 00:22:57.304
This is wild.
00:22:57.814 --> 00:22:58.294
So.
00:22:59.044 --> 00:23:04.263
German amateur historian Herbert.
00:23:04.354 --> 00:23:06.094
I don't think that's how you pronounce that, but I'm gonna call him.
00:23:06.094 --> 00:23:23.638
Herbert Iig wrote a book in 1996 called The Invented Middle Ages, the Greatest Time Falsification in History, which suggests that the years six 14 to nine 11, a sizable chunk of the Middle Ages never happened.
00:23:25.534 --> 00:23:26.973
So it was just like stories.
00:23:27.544 --> 00:23:50.644
So he says that Holy Roman Emperor Otto ii, Pope Sylvester ii, and possibly Roman Emperor Constantine the seventh conspired to make up 297 years of history, including the reign of Charlemagne, the Viking raids on Europe and countless other historical events in order to place Otto's rule in the year 1000.
00:23:51.814 --> 00:23:59.163
1000 years after Christ's death, the main reason being he wanted to rule a thousand years after the birth of Christ.
00:23:59.193 --> 00:24:11.074
How historians have offered considerable evidence that debunks the theory, not the least of which is that this hypothesis ignores the development of other cultures around the world during those 300 years.
00:24:11.374 --> 00:24:17.263
And apparently, astronomers have also said no, that's for sure not real, but.
00:24:18.134 --> 00:24:31.663
It's like a, a whole theory that people have flushed out and it just cracks me up because if they can just wipe out 10 or 11 days from the calendar here and there, like why couldn't they just wipe out 300 years?
00:24:33.193 --> 00:24:34.814
Because again, who's writing the history books?
00:24:34.814 --> 00:24:35.054
Who's
00:24:35.054 --> 00:24:35.394
writing writing?
00:24:35.394 --> 00:24:36.104
Who's writing the history books?
00:24:36.104 --> 00:24:36.973
What's going on?
00:24:36.973 --> 00:24:45.134
That's really that monumental in that time period anyway, that needs, that would significantly change how things continued on.
00:24:45.134 --> 00:24:46.364
Even if you did remove it.
00:24:46.423 --> 00:24:46.693
Yeah.
00:24:47.729 --> 00:24:52.259
It's those comments that we make of, well, that's a day of my life.
00:24:52.259 --> 00:24:53.278
I'll never be able to get back.
00:24:53.278 --> 00:24:57.058
When you have to do some really shitty stuff, is it gonna make a monumental change?
00:24:57.058 --> 00:24:57.598
No.
00:24:58.108 --> 00:24:58.409
Right.
00:24:58.469 --> 00:25:00.239
Or like even when you fly.
00:25:01.769 --> 00:25:02.038
Sure.
00:25:02.159 --> 00:25:09.028
Like from Australia to here, you, you, the whole day of your life doesn't exist because you're crossing time zones,
00:25:09.058 --> 00:25:10.378
which it's so hard to take.
00:25:10.693 --> 00:25:12.253
Medication on those days too.
00:25:12.554 --> 00:25:16.273
'cause you're, you think, oh yeah, I was supposed to take this at night every night.
00:25:16.273 --> 00:25:19.483
So is it just 24 hours then it throws me off for everything else.
00:25:19.513 --> 00:25:19.814
Yeah.
00:25:19.963 --> 00:25:21.374
It's a crazy, I don't like that.
00:25:22.153 --> 00:25:28.094
So I do wanna ask how you count your calendar, how you count the months of the year.
00:25:29.054 --> 00:25:29.473
Days.
00:25:29.594 --> 00:25:31.993
How do you remember the days in a month?
00:25:32.624 --> 00:25:33.344
Oh, like which?
00:25:33.523 --> 00:25:34.153
Like that rhyme.
00:25:34.153 --> 00:25:35.503
I never could remember that rhyme.
00:25:35.503 --> 00:25:36.223
So I don't, there's a
00:25:36.223 --> 00:25:36.614
rhyme
00:25:36.618 --> 00:25:36.939
Uhhuh,
00:25:37.273 --> 00:25:38.173
I use my knuckles
00:25:38.173 --> 00:25:38.773
30 days.
00:25:40.048 --> 00:25:43.019
Have September, April, June and November.
00:25:43.588 --> 00:25:45.509
There's more to it than that, but like, I don't remember.
00:25:45.568 --> 00:25:46.624
I use my knuckles do
00:25:46.624 --> 00:25:46.784
not.
00:25:46.784 --> 00:25:48.749
My freaking birthday's in April and I can't remember that.
00:25:48.749 --> 00:25:50.909
It only has 30 days, so I don't freaking know.
00:25:51.209 --> 00:25:52.229
Do you not use your knuckles?
00:25:52.233 --> 00:25:52.463
Uhuh.
00:25:52.798 --> 00:25:56.578
So you're supposed to put a, like make a fist and use the knuckles.
00:25:56.578 --> 00:25:59.009
So every knuckle is a month with.
00:25:59.669 --> 00:26:00.058
31
00:26:00.058 --> 00:26:00.838
31 days.
00:26:00.838 --> 00:26:06.989
So January, February, March, April, may, June, July, and then you restart because that gets to your last knuckle.
00:26:07.108 --> 00:26:07.739
Because if
00:26:07.739 --> 00:26:10.138
you're, if you have all of your way,
00:26:10.199 --> 00:26:12.989
Julius, Caesar and Augustus wanted
00:26:12.989 --> 00:26:13.828
both had 31.
00:26:13.828 --> 00:26:15.298
They wanted to have 31 days.
00:26:15.298 --> 00:26:15.628
Yeah.
00:26:15.628 --> 00:26:17.519
So now it goes back.
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:19.108
So that's how I have to remember.
00:26:19.114 --> 00:26:19.173
I,
00:26:19.324 --> 00:26:19.773
I've heard of that.
00:26:19.798 --> 00:26:20.608
I just can't
00:26:20.608 --> 00:26:21.358
because I'm 42.
00:26:21.598 --> 00:26:21.838
Yeah.
00:26:22.078 --> 00:26:22.588
I don't,
00:26:23.459 --> 00:26:24.388
that's how I have to do it.
00:26:24.449 --> 00:26:24.778
Yeah.
00:26:24.898 --> 00:26:25.378
What?
00:26:25.558 --> 00:26:25.798
Yeah.
00:26:26.429 --> 00:26:27.118
It's wild,
00:26:27.148 --> 00:26:29.759
but like, I mean, time is a construct, right?
00:26:29.788 --> 00:26:44.159
I obviously there's seasons and obvi, like all those things are real, but like the fact that humans have quantified it and regulated it and our entire lives revolve around time.
00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:47.558
We get paid for our hours at work.
00:26:48.419 --> 00:26:49.709
everything is time.
00:26:51.118 --> 00:26:53.653
And the Catholic church went, we own that.
00:26:55.153 --> 00:26:56.384
Is wild to me.
00:27:00.253 --> 00:27:03.074
I think all of it's really fucking crazy.
00:27:03.134 --> 00:27:03.403
Yeah.
00:27:03.403 --> 00:27:20.144
I think the fact that if we would've been in a better position or a better understanding, if it was 13 months with equal days and it was structured and it was easier for people to make their own decisions and.
00:27:20.818 --> 00:27:23.669
Kind of be in control of what they were doing.
00:27:24.088 --> 00:27:36.808
So that's where the bigger conspiracy theory comes in of, oh my God, I just, gosh, if I knew that every month started on a Sunday, it was 28 days and it was like rinse and repeat, literally.
00:27:36.808 --> 00:27:37.138
Yep.
00:27:37.348 --> 00:27:38.608
Oh, how beautiful.
00:27:38.638 --> 00:27:38.878
Yeah.
00:27:38.878 --> 00:27:49.618
Now I have to count on my knuckles and I don't know when things I wanna be, I wanna have total autonomy of knowing when things are.
00:27:49.993 --> 00:28:02.624
Gonna change and shift and not based on some weird numerical concept and construct that has been placed there for me to now just have to fall in line for
00:28:02.653 --> 00:28:14.413
Well, and then every like emergency room nurse I've ever talked to, a lot of vet techs we've had that go down like full moon fucks people up.
00:28:15.943 --> 00:28:17.713
I, I'm telling you.
00:28:18.659 --> 00:28:21.778
My kids start acting like a cat in a bathtub.
00:28:21.778 --> 00:28:24.148
Like it's, it would be nice.
00:28:24.179 --> 00:28:29.368
And one I, every time I look at the calendar, I go, oh, it's a full moon.
00:28:29.398 --> 00:28:29.848
That's why.
00:28:29.909 --> 00:28:30.959
That's why.
00:28:32.548 --> 00:28:42.118
But wouldn't it be cool to just know that more intuitively, we've been so disconnected from that, it'd be amazing to just know there's a full moon coming up.
00:28:42.118 --> 00:28:44.009
These idiots are gonna start acting like idiots.
00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:45.838
Idiots gonna idiot.
00:28:45.929 --> 00:28:46.348
You know?
00:28:46.348 --> 00:28:46.769
And.
00:28:47.729 --> 00:28:50.189
It's not so shocking, but
00:28:50.818 --> 00:28:51.959
just kind of expected.
00:28:52.169 --> 00:29:03.959
I did read somewhere that the calendar was originally in like the k. Like with a calendar K and it was 'cause len's or however they wanna say it in that time period referred to the taxes.
00:29:04.318 --> 00:29:05.128
So,
00:29:05.219 --> 00:29:06.449
oh, I did read something about that.
00:29:06.479 --> 00:29:08.638
Yeah, so there was something about that.
00:29:08.729 --> 00:29:22.648
I didn't look hard enough to remember just the source of it, but I saw that and I thought that's very interesting and also makes sense because even in the days of your all the Roman Empire days.
00:29:23.023 --> 00:29:24.193
Taxes was a thing.
00:29:24.223 --> 00:29:25.003
Jesus time.
00:29:25.003 --> 00:29:26.144
It was taxes was a thing.
00:29:26.144 --> 00:29:27.463
You always paid your taxes.
00:29:27.493 --> 00:29:27.733
Yeah.
00:29:28.094 --> 00:29:28.574
So
00:29:28.574 --> 00:29:30.044
give to Caesar, what is Caesar's?
00:29:30.134 --> 00:29:30.523
Yeah.
00:29:30.554 --> 00:29:39.594
And the fact that it was like, no, we're gonna lose a lot on interest calculations is, a little bit of a head scratcher for me.
00:29:39.594 --> 00:29:40.614
Mm-hmm.
00:29:40.644 --> 00:29:48.804
And so I don I, like I said, I don't think that that was necessarily like a nefarious beginning.
00:29:50.064 --> 00:29:54.953
But I think people quickly realized who was benefiting from it and they fought to keep it.
00:29:55.013 --> 00:29:57.953
Well, what do you think it was at the beginning though, if it wasn't nefarious?
00:29:57.983 --> 00:30:07.374
I think that the Catholic church was on a quest, you know, the Holy Roman empire like that was it.
00:30:07.403 --> 00:30:16.824
They, they were to rule the world and they wanted to own science and religion and time.
00:30:16.824 --> 00:30:17.618
I think it was the power.
00:30:18.983 --> 00:30:19.614
Power grab.
00:30:22.913 --> 00:30:23.273
Yeah.
00:30:25.193 --> 00:30:32.034
What do you think if everyone just started to, I mean, can we ever get normalcy back?
00:30:32.034 --> 00:30:42.503
We're just in this, when I hear the theories of us li living in a simulation and thinking of all that, makes me want to.
00:30:43.659 --> 00:30:52.328
Just, I mean, I'm, I'm so concerned about budgeting my life and trying to do all this, so it kind of makes you upset with that.
00:30:52.419 --> 00:30:54.398
Does it make you wanna just quit and go live in the woods?
00:30:55.058 --> 00:30:55.778
Yes,
00:30:55.808 --> 00:30:56.679
because it does me.
00:30:56.679 --> 00:30:56.739
Yeah.
00:30:56.769 --> 00:31:04.808
Like there's a huge part of me that's like, fuck it, I wanna go live in the woods and just live off grid completely.
00:31:04.898 --> 00:31:09.489
But I really like indoor plumbing and electricity.
00:31:09.489 --> 00:31:11.284
And electricity and getting my packages in two days.
00:31:12.804 --> 00:31:14.844
It's a massive internal struggle for me.
00:31:15.324 --> 00:31:17.513
So there's, yeah, but there's the whole,
00:31:17.544 --> 00:31:19.074
but I want all that knowledge.
00:31:20.003 --> 00:31:20.304
Yeah,
00:31:20.544 --> 00:31:25.733
I You're talking about like witchy shit, but like, like a old wise woman, the sages.
00:31:25.733 --> 00:31:26.213
Yeah.
00:31:26.213 --> 00:31:27.324
I want that knowledge.
00:31:27.324 --> 00:31:34.163
I wanna know what things I can grow in my garden that would heal things like I want, I want that knowledge.
00:31:36.338 --> 00:31:38.648
Yeah, and I feel like I'm never as hard as I try.
00:31:38.648 --> 00:31:41.288
I can get some of it, but I'm never gonna have all of it and it makes me sad.
00:31:41.409 --> 00:31:48.098
No, I feel like the only people who truly have that knowledge are people who are living that experience of having to figure it out on the fly.
00:31:48.189 --> 00:31:48.669
Yeah.
00:31:48.669 --> 00:32:00.219
No, and having been brought up in that, yeah, the only way you're gonna know what tea to make for whatever ailment you have is literally if that was your life, that this is what you do, these are the things you have.
00:32:01.403 --> 00:32:03.354
And this is what, this is how it works.
00:32:03.384 --> 00:32:03.534
Yeah.
00:32:03.534 --> 00:32:10.673
It's just, it's a cool, I always looked at that and I thought like, I'll watch period piece movies.
00:32:10.673 --> 00:32:11.003
Right.
00:32:11.003 --> 00:32:13.374
You know, I was on little women for like ever.
00:32:13.374 --> 00:32:13.794
I love that.
00:32:13.794 --> 00:32:14.544
During Christmas.
00:32:15.429 --> 00:32:18.189
But I like that period, civil war time.
00:32:18.249 --> 00:32:19.088
It's not ideal.
00:32:19.118 --> 00:32:23.048
No one wants to live during that time, but I just think, gosh, it was so simple.
00:32:23.199 --> 00:32:24.519
Yeah, it must been so simple.
00:32:24.969 --> 00:32:29.378
Then you have like Bridger Tin era, which is, I don't know if you watch Bridger on Netflix.
00:32:29.378 --> 00:32:41.828
I wouldn't think so, but that's now very Bougie Britain era of, I don't even know what time period, but not even really war.
00:32:41.858 --> 00:32:43.568
There's not much war going on in Bridger 10.
00:32:44.423 --> 00:32:46.584
I think, oh, would I wanna survive in that?
00:32:46.584 --> 00:32:53.933
Where you have the coming out parties and you have to go like meet the Queen and you know, almost the original cotillions.
00:32:53.933 --> 00:32:54.503
I guess.
00:32:55.284 --> 00:32:56.094
Do I want that?
00:32:56.124 --> 00:32:56.753
I don't know.
00:32:56.753 --> 00:33:01.193
It seems a little, I don't really wanna wear corsets and not to that extent.
00:33:01.733 --> 00:33:02.574
I was a theater kid.
00:33:02.574 --> 00:33:03.084
I've had to wear
00:33:03.084 --> 00:33:03.653
corsets.
00:33:03.653 --> 00:33:04.344
No, thank you.
00:33:04.344 --> 00:33:04.824
Same.
00:33:04.824 --> 00:33:05.483
Not fun.
00:33:05.483 --> 00:33:07.433
So little women is probably.
00:33:08.019 --> 00:33:09.788
The era that I would say.
00:33:10.088 --> 00:33:14.409
But then I also see Gatsby and I'm like, well, I could survive in the Roar in twenties.
00:33:14.469 --> 00:33:15.128
Oh yeah, buddy.
00:33:15.189 --> 00:33:19.028
But that there was so much of a crash after that.
00:33:19.058 --> 00:33:19.209
Yeah.
00:33:19.209 --> 00:33:21.669
That was so, you know, be careful what you wish for.
00:33:22.628 --> 00:33:24.699
I mean, there's pluses and minuses to every era.
00:33:24.699 --> 00:33:24.759
To
00:33:24.788 --> 00:33:25.628
every era.
00:33:25.868 --> 00:33:26.469
Like I,
00:33:26.499 --> 00:33:27.848
Peaky Blinders I live in.
00:33:27.848 --> 00:33:28.328
Yeah.
00:33:28.358 --> 00:33:29.679
I love Peaky Blinders,
00:33:29.709 --> 00:33:42.308
but I think my point is, I. It is so hard because if that, if it was supposed to be simpler, I feel like every era has just gotten more complex.
00:33:42.338 --> 00:33:42.429
Mm-hmm.
00:33:42.669 --> 00:33:48.249
In number one, the expectations, but two, what you make versus what it costs to live.
00:33:48.249 --> 00:33:48.338
Mm-hmm.
00:33:48.638 --> 00:33:53.469
And then fast forward to the banking system and everything going on.
00:33:53.469 --> 00:33:57.489
In our world it's, can we ever get ahead?
00:33:57.759 --> 00:33:59.469
I know that money.
00:34:00.189 --> 00:34:04.239
Is a whole link to corruption, whatever.
00:34:05.019 --> 00:34:05.949
I will tell you what,
00:34:06.368 --> 00:34:07.659
I don't want corruption money.
00:34:07.659 --> 00:34:09.938
I just want whatever's right under that.
00:34:09.938 --> 00:34:18.429
Listen, I will tell you what, to the people who have the money that they would like to try to corrupt someone, please, I will be an, I will be an example.
00:34:18.489 --> 00:34:24.699
I promise to be true to who I am whilst taking all this money.
00:34:25.778 --> 00:34:26.378
I think it's fair.
00:34:26.409 --> 00:34:28.028
I think it would be a good social experiment.
00:34:28.028 --> 00:34:28.509
Let's.
00:34:28.853 --> 00:34:30.804
Just give me a bunch of money.
00:34:31.224 --> 00:34:32.034
You can have some too.
00:34:32.364 --> 00:34:32.724
Thank you.
00:34:32.844 --> 00:34:36.233
Not corruption level, but what you would give anyone.
00:34:36.233 --> 00:34:38.333
No, actually I do want corruption level money.
00:34:38.634 --> 00:34:42.233
I want what you would give someone in order to corrupt them and solidify it.
00:34:42.324 --> 00:34:44.003
I want $1 less than that.
00:34:44.034 --> 00:34:49.103
And in the proof of showing you that you can give me corruption money and I'm not gonna do anything with it.
00:34:49.583 --> 00:34:53.239
I feel that that shit is also, yes, money does it.
00:34:54.369 --> 00:34:55.478
Power does it more?
00:34:55.539 --> 00:34:56.378
Oh yeah, for sure.
00:34:56.498 --> 00:34:57.608
You are gonna have the power.
00:34:57.849 --> 00:34:58.838
I don't want the power though.
00:34:58.869 --> 00:35:00.039
I just, I don't either want the money.
00:35:00.099 --> 00:35:06.039
I just want the money and I wanna be able to live comfortably and not have to overstress every day.
00:35:06.068 --> 00:35:06.159
Mm-hmm.
00:35:06.398 --> 00:35:11.168
About the shit that is what it seems or is not what it seems.
00:35:11.168 --> 00:35:15.789
And why is this bag of smart pop popcorn less?
00:35:15.849 --> 00:35:15.969
Mm-hmm.
00:35:16.239 --> 00:35:21.909
But yet the Oreo package is still the same because they've just shrunk the ounces and given you like one or two less Oreos.
00:35:21.909 --> 00:35:22.193
I will say chips.
00:35:23.003 --> 00:35:25.014
Chips do the bigger disservice in the grocery store.
00:35:25.014 --> 00:35:25.074
Yeah.
00:35:25.074 --> 00:35:25.943
So back to your example.
00:35:25.943 --> 00:35:27.324
Chips and anything bagged.
00:35:27.443 --> 00:35:27.534
Mm-hmm.
00:35:27.773 --> 00:35:29.903
If you're in a package, you're better.
00:35:30.773 --> 00:35:31.253
But still,
00:35:31.494 --> 00:35:37.974
I'm gonna say, if anybody ever sees my children out in public on a non-school day, they know I don't want the power.
00:35:38.543 --> 00:35:40.079
'cause those people dress themselves,
00:35:42.384 --> 00:35:42.983
those people.
00:35:43.313 --> 00:35:44.213
It's what it is.
00:35:44.423 --> 00:35:50.034
I do not want power, but you know, I know someone who.
00:35:50.829 --> 00:35:58.599
Worked on a security detail for a very powerful person in our lives.
00:35:58.838 --> 00:35:59.079
Okay.
00:35:59.318 --> 00:35:59.708
Okay.
00:35:59.918 --> 00:36:02.498
I'm gonna try to not give too many details 'cause that's not the point.
00:36:02.498 --> 00:36:11.949
The point is that that guy has so much effing money and this person that I know was like, the interesting thing is he doesn't seem to care about the money.
00:36:11.949 --> 00:36:14.228
He still drives like a shitty old like Toyota Corolla.
00:36:14.934 --> 00:36:17.903
I don't remember if that's what it was, but it was like he drives a shitty car.
00:36:18.264 --> 00:36:21.684
His house is not, it's very nice for where it is.
00:36:21.684 --> 00:36:28.313
It's in a very nice part of the town, but it's not a huge mansion or anything like that.
00:36:28.434 --> 00:36:36.384
What this guy very clearly cares about is the power, and this guy is ruined millions of people's lives.
00:36:38.333 --> 00:36:39.534
He cares about the power.
00:36:39.594 --> 00:36:41.454
That's all he cares about.
00:36:41.454 --> 00:36:42.923
So I totally agree with you.
00:36:43.074 --> 00:36:43.523
Interesting
00:36:43.523 --> 00:36:47.364
that power is more corrosive than even money.
00:36:47.603 --> 00:36:49.523
And that's why I think that there are people
00:36:49.853 --> 00:36:50.003
for
00:36:50.003 --> 00:36:55.043
sure pulling the strings, hundred percent who only care about the power and then they control the people who care about the money.
00:36:55.463 --> 00:37:06.233
And then they are all beating up our lives and adding more and more and more and more and more so that we can't pay attention to what's.
00:37:06.653 --> 00:37:09.143
Really going on, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
00:37:09.443 --> 00:37:11.784
Like that's, I firmly believe that that's happening.
00:37:11.813 --> 00:37:12.114
Sure.
00:37:12.744 --> 00:37:36.054
And then even below, the people with the money are the people who are caught in the machine who think that they're doing the right thing, but they're caught in the machine and they don't have time to step outside, or they don't have the means or the way, or the energy, the bandwidth, whatever, to step outside that machine and look around and go, this isn't right.
00:37:37.463 --> 00:37:42.594
Or the people who have done that get absolutely blasted for it.
00:37:43.614 --> 00:37:47.454
And so it behooves you to just keep your head down and be in the machine.
00:37:50.753 --> 00:37:51.864
I don't wanna be in a machine.
00:37:52.463 --> 00:37:54.954
I would really like a calendar that just made more sense.
00:37:55.014 --> 00:37:55.583
I would too.
00:37:55.704 --> 00:38:00.804
I would like to know that my birthday is on the same day every year and that Christmas is gonna be on the same day every year and Easter.
00:38:01.074 --> 00:38:01.224
Yeah.
00:38:01.224 --> 00:38:06.954
And all of these things that we all, oh, well, you can't do it that day because this year, Christmas is on a Tuesday.
00:38:07.043 --> 00:38:07.253
Yeah.
00:38:07.403 --> 00:38:10.344
We're just shucks, what do I do about that?
00:38:10.373 --> 00:38:12.204
I just want order.
00:38:12.204 --> 00:38:20.603
I think everything is, as much as I love to be in control of certain aspects of my life, everything I can control, I always say.
00:38:21.503 --> 00:38:28.164
There's so much that's not in my control and it comes down to shit that I would've never even thought about.
00:38:28.224 --> 00:38:29.364
Like a calendar.
00:38:29.364 --> 00:38:29.483
Mm-hmm.
00:38:29.724 --> 00:38:37.494
Like it wasn't like this when it first started and now it is because it became more convenient for everyone running the show.
00:38:37.704 --> 00:38:37.793
Yeah.
00:38:37.793 --> 00:38:38.844
You're just in the show.
00:38:39.143 --> 00:38:43.554
But these people, it needs to be easier for them 'cause they're running it and they're benefiting off it
00:38:43.733 --> 00:38:45.233
and it does make sense.
00:38:46.329 --> 00:38:56.739
With this world that we live in today, like the world is smaller with the digital shit, blah, blah, blah, to have like a centralized calendar for everybody to follow in the whole world.
00:38:56.739 --> 00:39:08.978
But if not a hundred percent of the people are following it, then it may, you know, Ethiopia, I mean, I don't know what their GDP is.
00:39:09.099 --> 00:39:11.289
I don't know anything about their economy, but like,
00:39:11.289 --> 00:39:12.219
I'm gonna go with not high,
00:39:12.398 --> 00:39:12.849
but like.
00:39:14.724 --> 00:39:20.753
Get on board with our calendar or you are not going to thrive as a country.
00:39:22.043 --> 00:39:22.313
Right.
00:39:22.313 --> 00:39:22.943
That's what I'm saying.
00:39:22.974 --> 00:39:24.204
So like
00:39:25.134 --> 00:39:25.914
respectfully,
00:39:25.914 --> 00:39:29.094
they can say it makes sense to have everybody be on the same calendar.
00:39:29.273 --> 00:39:29.514
Sure.
00:39:30.293 --> 00:39:32.003
But can't that calendar make some sense?
00:39:32.934 --> 00:39:33.864
Just logic.
00:39:33.923 --> 00:39:33.983
Yeah.
00:39:33.983 --> 00:39:36.534
It goes back to logic, which nobody has apparently.
00:39:36.534 --> 00:39:42.173
No, we have it and I just want it, but I really do wanna test the theory of I will get the, I'll take the money.
00:39:43.463 --> 00:39:44.123
Happily.
00:39:44.153 --> 00:39:44.304
Yeah,
00:39:44.333 --> 00:39:47.543
just for science, for research, just to know.
00:39:47.753 --> 00:39:54.054
So if you hear me say Happy fake New Year for all of January, that's what's up.
00:39:54.653 --> 00:40:01.043
And I will 100% be telling everybody Happy New Year on the spring Equinox.
00:40:01.583 --> 00:40:11.483
Not because I'm like a weird Pagan person or I'm bad Catholic, just because I think that that's when New Year should start.
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:24.458
Also though, I think to anyone who could, even if you're looking at this from just an a third party, very neutral, very uninvolved, haven't done the research perspective.
00:40:25.179 --> 00:40:36.188
When you talk about New Year and just new life, it logically makes sense that it would be when the flowers are blooming and not when everything is dormant sleeping.
00:40:36.608 --> 00:40:40.418
If you're gonna cut out whole periods of middle Ages according to some people.
00:40:40.809 --> 00:40:44.889
You can cut out the sleepy portion of the year and make it even less.
00:40:44.918 --> 00:40:46.418
I mean, if you wanna start,
00:40:46.748 --> 00:40:46.989
yeah,
00:40:47.018 --> 00:40:55.458
cutting away, but to add a month to make it make sense more, I'm just the fan of, I like logic so much.
00:40:55.518 --> 00:40:56.719
I like order.
00:40:57.139 --> 00:41:04.938
I like knowing things because everything can happen, even when you know it, that is out of your control.
00:41:04.938 --> 00:41:09.259
So I think for me, when I start hearing about the new Year thing, and then there's.
00:41:09.813 --> 00:41:11.193
There's so many things though.
00:41:11.224 --> 00:41:13.159
Zodiac signs, there's 13.
00:41:13.954 --> 00:41:17.733
They want, you know, it's supposed to be 13 months in the year, 28 days.
00:41:17.733 --> 00:41:19.143
Everything's starting on Sunday.
00:41:19.264 --> 00:41:23.403
Well, and because our current 12 Zodiac signs are not monthly.
00:41:24.333 --> 00:41:24.454
No.
00:41:24.454 --> 00:41:29.853
They're like, well, yeah, you're born in April, so you might be in Aries, but you could also be a Taurus.
00:41:30.724 --> 00:41:31.384
Like, come on, people, it's the
00:41:31.384 --> 00:41:32.673
21st or the 22nd.
00:41:32.673 --> 00:41:34.728
It's always of something ridiculous.
00:41:34.728 --> 00:41:34.739
So.
00:41:35.403 --> 00:41:36.934
You have the zodiac signs.
00:41:36.934 --> 00:41:40.684
This, you know, there's the whole world of astrology and all this shit as well.
00:41:41.164 --> 00:41:55.023
But I think, gosh, if so many of the science things like, we'll call it woo woo, but it's not woo woo, but the zodiac and the watching the stars and the, this, I don't know,
00:41:55.083 --> 00:41:56.344
the natural world,
00:41:56.614 --> 00:42:00.903
the sagey people, the, the folklore.
00:42:00.903 --> 00:42:04.324
I don't know, whatever I'm trying to make it.
00:42:04.744 --> 00:42:05.134
Fine.
00:42:05.733 --> 00:42:06.393
Those people.
00:42:07.384 --> 00:42:16.233
Those people, if you're just trying to match it, it, and that's kind of how they're doing things to regulate, number one, their bodies.
00:42:16.233 --> 00:42:19.684
Number two, how they understand what period we're in.
00:42:20.043 --> 00:42:24.213
If that makes logical sense, why do we have to man just have to go in and lock it up?
00:42:24.483 --> 00:42:24.603
Yeah.
00:42:24.603 --> 00:42:25.384
Because that's what they do.
00:42:25.384 --> 00:42:29.164
They go in and they f something up because they find what benefits them more.
00:42:29.463 --> 00:42:29.853
Yeah.
00:42:30.094 --> 00:42:30.784
Honestly,
00:42:30.784 --> 00:42:31.653
also.
00:42:32.554 --> 00:42:34.804
Can we get rid of daylight saving time, please.
00:42:34.804 --> 00:42:35.884
For the love of God.
00:42:35.884 --> 00:42:41.284
Dude, that is something I will, that like I will die on the hill of.
00:42:41.284 --> 00:42:42.063
This is bullshit.
00:42:42.094 --> 00:42:43.733
It is bullshit all the time.
00:42:43.733 --> 00:42:47.134
And so the politician that finally makes that happen has my vote.
00:42:47.313 --> 00:42:48.934
I thought it's been voted for
00:42:48.934 --> 00:42:49.208
so many, many times.
00:42:49.208 --> 00:42:51.704
Oh, it's been proposed so many times and they just like many,
00:42:51.704 --> 00:42:53.409
and it vote, it wins like it passes.
00:42:54.438 --> 00:43:09.588
But, uh, when I lived in Arizona and we didn't have daylight saving time, it was great except that I had one parent in one time zone and one parent in another time zone, and I had to figure out which time zone I was, which parent I was aligned with for half of the year that it sucks, but it's doable.
00:43:09.619 --> 00:43:10.699
Can we get done with that?
00:43:10.699 --> 00:43:19.998
So the politicians listening, if you my vote abolish daylight saving time, abolish the IRS.
00:43:21.753 --> 00:43:22.384
There you go.
00:43:22.833 --> 00:43:23.193
Done.
00:43:23.463 --> 00:43:25.804
Like that's how to make everybody's lives better.
00:43:25.923 --> 00:43:26.793
Immediately
00:43:26.914 --> 00:43:27.273
done.
00:43:28.114 --> 00:43:29.583
And then we can work on the calendar.
00:43:30.693 --> 00:43:35.554
I mean, I think daylight savings and the calendar can all go into one.
00:43:36.603 --> 00:43:36.784
Yeah.
00:43:39.289 --> 00:43:39.628
Sorry.
00:43:41.708 --> 00:43:41.929
Yes.
00:43:43.047 --> 00:43:45.753
But if you want just baby steps, daylight saving time,
00:43:45.784 --> 00:43:46.353
daylight savings,
00:43:46.384 --> 00:43:47.074
just take it out.
00:43:48.123 --> 00:43:48.273
Yeah.
00:43:48.273 --> 00:43:48.693
I don't like it.
00:43:50.733 --> 00:43:50.914
Ugh.
00:43:51.423 --> 00:43:52.684
And it doesn't do anything.
00:43:52.684 --> 00:43:55.474
You go forward, you go back, you end up at the same stupid time.
00:43:55.474 --> 00:43:57.364
It's still ultra dark in the morning.
00:43:57.364 --> 00:44:05.164
In the winter obnoxiously and then, or coming into spring and then dark in the, you know, coming dark into the winter and it just, whatever.
00:44:05.373 --> 00:44:08.673
I mean, I feel like that's how nature should be, but it's still really annoying.
00:44:09.034 --> 00:44:11.434
The only time I liked daylight saving time.
00:44:11.798 --> 00:44:17.228
Is when, or the only time it benefited me, I'm gonna say, is when I was working graveyard shift at hotels.
00:44:17.289 --> 00:44:17.559
Mm.
00:44:17.798 --> 00:44:24.579
And you, I would purposely schedule myself for that shift because then I got an extra hour of money.
00:44:25.418 --> 00:44:25.688
Oh.
00:44:26.289 --> 00:44:26.798
But that's it.
00:44:28.509 --> 00:44:29.259
That's the only way.
00:44:29.409 --> 00:44:29.708
Yeah.
00:44:30.728 --> 00:44:31.389
We're over it.
00:44:31.568 --> 00:44:31.809
Yep.
00:44:35.498 --> 00:44:35.918
Okay.
00:44:36.969 --> 00:44:37.568
That was a lot.
00:44:37.898 --> 00:44:37.989
Yep.
00:44:37.989 --> 00:44:38.588
Thanks for that.
00:44:38.768 --> 00:44:39.039
Yep.
00:44:39.219 --> 00:44:40.568
Thanks for hanging in with me.
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:41.199
Yeah.
00:44:41.378 --> 00:44:52.809
And have a good day to everyone, except everyone who blames their really shitty poor behavior on the moon or their astrological zo, their zodiac sound,
00:44:52.809 --> 00:44:54.159
or mercury in the microwave.
00:44:54.159 --> 00:44:54.338
Yeah.
00:44:55.628 --> 00:44:56.228
Or that.
00:44:56.259 --> 00:44:56.528
Yeah.
00:44:56.739 --> 00:44:57.699
Yes, everyone but you.
00:44:57.818 --> 00:44:58.059
Yep.
00:44:58.449 --> 00:44:59.048
Bye.
00:44:59.048 --> 00:44:59.523
Bye.
00:00:06.150 --> 00:00:07.049
Don't even bother.
00:00:07.932 --> 00:00:08.164
Okay.
00:00:09.025 --> 00:00:15.369
Did, did you ever wonder why we have to start the new year in the middle of.
00:00:15.925 --> 00:00:20.425
Season first of all, but also like the middle of the most fucking depressing season of the year.
00:00:21.144 --> 00:00:22.385
No, but it is really depressing
00:00:23.574 --> 00:00:33.804
and like it doesn't make any sense because the spring is when new life blooms, so why the hell wouldn't that be the new year?
00:00:35.844 --> 00:00:36.534
Theoretically,
00:00:36.625 --> 00:00:39.384
like why wouldn't you start the new year on a new season?
00:00:40.585 --> 00:00:41.005
Right,
00:00:41.484 --> 00:00:41.755
right.
00:00:43.659 --> 00:00:55.600
Turns out they used to, so the new year used to be around March 25th ish, that Vernal Equinox, which is the beginning of spring.
00:00:55.990 --> 00:00:56.320
Okay.
00:00:57.700 --> 00:01:05.920
So like ancient, ancient people who were very in tune with the stars, the moon, the earth in general.
00:01:06.084 --> 00:01:06.745
The world general.
00:01:06.745 --> 00:01:08.125
Like scientists or like witches?
00:01:08.364 --> 00:01:10.344
No, I'm not going witchy.
00:01:10.344 --> 00:01:11.125
Woo woo shit.
00:01:11.125 --> 00:01:11.155
Okay.
00:01:11.155 --> 00:01:12.984
I'm talking about like just ancient people.
00:01:12.984 --> 00:01:14.545
There's whole structures.
00:01:14.605 --> 00:01:14.814
Sure.
00:01:14.875 --> 00:01:24.894
Ancient structures that were built so that this one skylight we'll say, lined up perfectly with some celestial body on this exact significant day.
00:01:25.135 --> 00:01:29.034
Like they were so in tune with the world around 'em.
00:01:29.034 --> 00:01:30.715
They knew when to plant.
00:01:30.834 --> 00:01:33.144
You know when your corn gets this high, you plant your beans.
00:01:33.564 --> 00:01:35.155
They don't need a calendar.
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:36.430
They didn't need any of that.
00:01:36.430 --> 00:01:37.840
They were all super in tune with that.
00:01:38.709 --> 00:01:45.700
And I swear that's how you know when you watch shows like Game of Thrones and these women just know that they're pregnant.
00:01:46.450 --> 00:01:46.900
Yes.
00:01:46.930 --> 00:01:48.189
And it's like, what the hell?
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:49.659
How do you just know that?
00:01:50.290 --> 00:01:55.031
I mean, obviously we know like, but they seemed to have just known.
00:01:55.031 --> 00:01:56.081
I know that's a TV show.
00:01:57.042 --> 00:02:05.831
It's probably because they were so in tune with the lunar cycle, which also happens to correlate very closely to most women's cycles.
00:02:05.831 --> 00:02:10.002
Like they just, the lunar calendar seemed to make a lot of sense.
00:02:10.331 --> 00:02:13.872
Well, and if, if Game of Thrones is, I get it.
00:02:13.872 --> 00:02:19.122
It's also, let's just call it biblical 'cause they, they also knew that back then too.
00:02:19.181 --> 00:02:19.391
Yeah.
00:02:19.391 --> 00:02:22.361
You know, in, in Bible times when you're reading the Bible, they just.
00:02:22.662 --> 00:02:23.231
No.
00:02:23.442 --> 00:02:23.771
Yeah,
00:02:23.801 --> 00:02:26.231
so-and-so is like, and she's, and now with child.
00:02:26.231 --> 00:02:26.921
She's with child.
00:02:26.921 --> 00:02:27.252
Yeah.
00:02:27.461 --> 00:02:30.401
So Game of Thrones took that probably from the Bible.
00:02:30.401 --> 00:02:31.451
I would just like to point that out.
00:02:31.481 --> 00:02:31.842
Yeah.
00:02:33.162 --> 00:02:37.632
So I went down a rabbit hole about the calendar.
00:02:37.722 --> 00:02:38.070
Perfect.
00:02:38.771 --> 00:02:51.671
But I'm gonna pause that and go on a little bird walk for a second, because it's probably no secret that I And you.
00:02:52.632 --> 00:03:03.671
You and I are very conspiracy minded, and when you are a tinfoil hat wearer, you can find the conspiracy in anything.
00:03:05.171 --> 00:03:10.692
So I'm gonna say, even if you're a normie, and if you've never heard that term, then you're a normie.
00:03:11.171 --> 00:03:18.401
If you think we landed on the moon, if you think that those are just contraras in the sky, you're a normie.
00:03:18.401 --> 00:03:19.512
And that's no judgment.
00:03:19.512 --> 00:03:20.711
I'm just telling you.
00:03:22.122 --> 00:03:24.731
Then this'll just be a fun history lesson.
00:03:26.141 --> 00:03:26.382
Perfect.
00:03:26.382 --> 00:03:28.331
If you wanna find the conspiracy, you find it.
00:03:29.368 --> 00:03:29.758
Okay.
00:03:31.468 --> 00:03:33.808
how did we go for New Year?
00:03:34.229 --> 00:03:40.049
The new year being the vernal equinox to January 1st.
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:43.783
I had no say
00:03:44.503 --> 00:03:45.403
Julius Caesar.
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:47.210
Okay.
00:03:47.270 --> 00:03:52.781
So prior to Caesar.
00:03:52.991 --> 00:04:01.270
Prior to the Roman Empire, ancient people, like I just said, mostly used astronomy and lunar cycles to help keep track of time.
00:04:03.110 --> 00:04:05.341
they have Sumerian calendars that date back, two th.
00:04:05.885 --> 00:04:13.036
3000 bc each Sumerian month consisted of 29 or 30 days according to the lunar cycle.
00:04:13.036 --> 00:04:19.425
The lunar cycle is about 11 days off from the solar calendar.
00:04:20.505 --> 00:04:27.396
So the Mayans had the most accurate calendar, because they used lunar and solar.
00:04:29.646 --> 00:04:29.766
Now.
00:04:30.636 --> 00:04:39.545
For my conspiracy friends, there is a thought going around the internet that says that the world really did end on December 21st, 2012.
00:04:40.925 --> 00:04:43.716
Like the Mayan calendar allegedly said that it would.
00:04:43.925 --> 00:04:46.596
And we're, we've all just been living in a simulation this whole time.
00:04:46.656 --> 00:04:47.196
What?
00:04:47.196 --> 00:04:48.081
Like lost everyone?
00:04:48.271 --> 00:04:48.880
Like lost.
00:04:49.990 --> 00:04:51.725
Anyway, that's not what we're talking about today.
00:04:51.935 --> 00:04:52.295
So.
00:04:55.007 --> 00:04:59.687
The Roman Empire came along and decided that they needed to make their own calendar.
00:05:00.918 --> 00:05:06.947
However, it was only, this is my favorite part of this.
00:05:07.038 --> 00:05:15.588
The original Roman calendar was only 10 months, so 304 days, meaning that the other 61 days were just dead space.
00:05:16.608 --> 00:05:18.798
Like they still existed, but they weren't on any kind.
00:05:18.798 --> 00:05:20.372
It was just like no man's land.
00:05:21.572 --> 00:05:24.052
Mm. Like free day, I guess.
00:05:24.052 --> 00:05:24.903
Like free dress day.
00:05:25.353 --> 00:05:25.622
Yeah.
00:05:26.012 --> 00:05:28.052
Was everyone on vacation during those days?
00:05:28.083 --> 00:05:28.382
Right.
00:05:28.382 --> 00:05:31.173
You know, was it just kind of the prescribed time of vacation?
00:05:31.202 --> 00:05:32.552
'cause it doesn't count, they're just
00:05:32.583 --> 00:05:32.882
Yeah.
00:05:32.913 --> 00:05:33.663
Free days.
00:05:33.663 --> 00:05:34.442
It's just nothing.
00:05:34.533 --> 00:05:35.103
Nothing days.
00:05:35.132 --> 00:05:35.432
Yeah.
00:05:35.942 --> 00:05:36.213
Okay.
00:05:36.843 --> 00:05:43.173
So around 700 bc the Roman emperor that I can't pronounce, added January and February to the end of the year.
00:05:43.562 --> 00:05:43.742
Okay.
00:05:43.742 --> 00:05:49.833
And so February was at the end of the year, which is why it only had 28 days.
00:05:50.403 --> 00:05:55.262
Because fuck February, I guess like it was just an afterthought.
00:05:57.723 --> 00:06:05.583
And February, I wrote this down that it was considered unlucky, an unlucky time, and I don't remember why.
00:06:05.762 --> 00:06:06.663
So sorry.
00:06:07.562 --> 00:06:09.512
Unlike Katusha, I do not cite my sources.
00:06:10.773 --> 00:06:11.973
We're just full of chaos here.
00:06:12.483 --> 00:06:18.572
So by first century BC, the Roman calendar was a hot mess and.
00:06:19.502 --> 00:06:24.062
Starting to, the confusion per usual was political fuckery.
00:06:24.843 --> 00:06:25.353
of course.
00:06:26.762 --> 00:06:30.589
The Pontifex Maximus and the College of Pontiffs.
00:06:31.262 --> 00:06:34.473
But this is first century bc, so not Ponts like the Pope yet.
00:06:34.983 --> 00:06:39.182
We'll get to the Pope had the authority to alter the calendar.
00:06:39.872 --> 00:06:40.742
They sometimes did.
00:06:40.742 --> 00:06:45.692
So to reduce or extend the term of a particular magistrate or other public official
00:06:47.673 --> 00:06:48.603
Political fuckery.
00:06:48.603 --> 00:06:48.783
Yeah.
00:06:50.012 --> 00:06:56.552
So Julius Caesar initiated a reform that resulted in the establishment of the Julian Calendar.
00:06:58.052 --> 00:07:03.362
So the months, everybody, I feel like we've all heard that.
00:07:03.362 --> 00:07:05.132
Like Julius and Augustus.
00:07:05.132 --> 00:07:05.223
Yes.
00:07:06.557 --> 00:07:07.458
July and August.
00:07:07.817 --> 00:07:13.728
Well, those were originally Quintiles and sex Tillis, meaning fifth and six months.
00:07:14.057 --> 00:07:14.538
Okay,
00:07:14.653 --> 00:07:17.778
so Whoopty do, and then of course, September through December.
00:07:17.778 --> 00:07:25.338
Roman numerals, 7, 8, 9, and 10 because they were originally like July through December was originally 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
00:07:26.658 --> 00:07:31.757
But then they added January and February, so it got all messed up.
00:07:33.271 --> 00:07:33.721
Okay.
00:07:33.872 --> 00:07:36.901
Back to my copious notes.
00:07:36.932 --> 00:07:38.012
I lost my place.
00:07:41.041 --> 00:07:45.411
So Julius Caesar made January the start of the new year.
00:07:46.802 --> 00:07:47.072
Okay.
00:07:49.112 --> 00:07:50.966
Um, not clear why.
00:07:53.177 --> 00:08:00.706
This is just like with the Titanic, every which way you turn, you can find different answers for different ques.
00:08:00.737 --> 00:08:01.817
Like for the same question.
00:08:01.817 --> 00:08:03.466
It's bonkers, it's historical.
00:08:03.466 --> 00:08:05.297
We're talking thousands of years ago.
00:08:05.656 --> 00:08:06.947
Nobody really knows.
00:08:07.637 --> 00:08:10.127
But these are like the generally accepted facts that I have found.
00:08:11.896 --> 00:08:20.687
So by 1582, the Julian calendar was cumulatively off time because.
00:08:22.201 --> 00:08:26.312
The earth rotates around the sun.
00:08:27.271 --> 00:08:33.211
Every 365.2422 days.
00:08:35.461 --> 00:08:46.142
Okay, so then at this point they're off by like 15 days, and that's a problem when you want Easter.
00:08:46.562 --> 00:08:51.121
The most important holiday of the Catholic church to fall on this one day.
00:08:51.121 --> 00:08:52.081
And I meant to look it up.
00:08:52.111 --> 00:09:01.532
It's in my brain somewhere of how they, to this day calculate when Easter is, and it has to do with the moon, but I don't remember enough to like regurgitate it back.
00:09:01.562 --> 00:09:08.611
So Pope Gregory the 13th we're in 1582, now came up with the Gregorian calendar.
00:09:08.792 --> 00:09:14.672
I would love to go back in time to see if he was like, yo, my name is Pope Gregory and we're gonna call it the Gregorian calendar.
00:09:15.091 --> 00:09:17.131
Or if that's just what it became known as.
00:09:17.402 --> 00:09:18.902
'cause I could see it going either way.
00:09:21.182 --> 00:09:27.542
So he made January one, the official start of the new year and declared it for all Catholic countries.
00:09:27.542 --> 00:09:30.481
So Spain, Italy, France, all went, yep.
00:09:30.542 --> 00:09:31.111
Okay.
00:09:31.922 --> 00:09:32.522
Copy that.
00:09:34.711 --> 00:09:43.461
Britain the Americas did not follow suit until much later, like 17 hundreds.
00:09:45.432 --> 00:10:07.602
So by, well, I saw something that said in 1582 in order to SR get the Gregorian calendar back on track, it went from October 4th, 1582, and then the very next day was October 15th, 1582.
00:10:07.602 --> 00:10:10.932
Oh, And then by 1752.
00:10:11.653 --> 00:10:29.893
When England and American colonies decided to get on board with this new calendar, the discrepancy between a solar year and the Julian Calendar had grown by even more so that the calendar used in England and its colonies was 11 days out of sync.
00:10:30.283 --> 00:10:31.482
So they did the same thing.
00:10:31.873 --> 00:10:32.232
Okay,
00:10:32.863 --> 00:10:38.442
so England and America just dropped 11 days for September of 1752.
00:10:39.102 --> 00:10:43.212
It's also unclear if the year of 1750 ever even happened in America.
00:10:45.258 --> 00:10:48.643
Oh, and this is according to like the Connecticut State Library.
00:10:49.993 --> 00:10:59.592
So China adopted the Gregorian calendar in 1912, but continues to obviously use its lunar calendar for like its zodiac things.
00:10:59.597 --> 00:10:59.697
Okay.
00:11:00.432 --> 00:11:01.363
Religious purposes.
00:11:01.363 --> 00:11:05.173
A lot of countries still use their own lunar calendars for religious purposes.
00:11:05.773 --> 00:11:12.942
Russia switched to the Gregorian calendar in 1918 and Greece in 1923.
00:11:13.722 --> 00:11:14.712
That kind of blew my mind.
00:11:15.403 --> 00:11:18.763
So they were all just on scattered time, uhhuh frames and Wow.
00:11:18.822 --> 00:11:19.092
Yeah.
00:11:19.092 --> 00:11:19.842
In the in between.
00:11:19.932 --> 00:11:20.263
Yeah.
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:27.538
the Gregorian calendar really only differs from the Julian year in like its implementation of leap days, and that is so convoluted.
00:11:28.557 --> 00:11:29.068
Barf.
00:11:29.068 --> 00:11:29.938
We're not going there.
00:11:30.578 --> 00:11:50.682
So before the Gregorian reform, many civilizations followed their own lunar based calendars with 13 months of 28 days each totaling 364 days with one day out of time or a year day, or there were lots of names for it, they usually used that day as a time for reflection and renewal.
00:11:50.863 --> 00:11:51.163
Okay.
00:11:52.732 --> 00:11:55.317
This system obviously wasn't just mathematical, it was.
00:11:55.972 --> 00:11:58.852
It followed natural patterns.
00:11:58.852 --> 00:12:06.143
And again, I'm not trying to get woowoo, it's just the world that they knew and it made sense to them.
00:12:07.186 --> 00:12:08.475
And wait, which calendar was this?
00:12:08.475 --> 00:12:09.255
The 13 month
00:12:09.285 --> 00:12:09.375
this?
00:12:09.375 --> 00:12:10.696
Yeah, the 13 month calendar.
00:12:10.696 --> 00:12:12.916
It's uniform, it's predictable.
00:12:12.916 --> 00:12:13.846
Everything's 28 days.
00:12:13.905 --> 00:12:15.375
Everything's 28 days.
00:12:15.885 --> 00:12:21.706
The month starts on the first on a Sunday, and you know, it's just cut and dried.
00:12:21.706 --> 00:12:22.605
It's four weeks.
00:12:23.416 --> 00:12:23.716
Boom.
00:12:23.895 --> 00:12:24.285
Done.
00:12:24.436 --> 00:12:24.615
Okay.
00:12:24.645 --> 00:12:25.139
Easy peasy.
00:12:26.625 --> 00:12:29.745
Uh, fun fact, Ethiopia still operates on a 13 month system.
00:12:31.456 --> 00:12:32.836
What's their last month called?
00:12:33.166 --> 00:12:34.005
Oh, I didn't even look.
00:12:34.125 --> 00:12:38.716
I wonder if it's just a free month and like, this is the month of the wild and free.
00:12:38.716 --> 00:12:39.946
I mean, what are you gonna call it?
00:12:40.306 --> 00:12:40.936
Right?
00:12:41.895 --> 00:12:42.076
it up.
00:12:42.076 --> 00:12:49.635
So the word month itself is related to the moon, and it originally measured how long it took for the moon to complete a cycle around the earth.
00:12:49.905 --> 00:12:51.225
So they come from the same route.
00:12:53.086 --> 00:13:08.446
Anyway, so back in the day when the new year, there was not like New Year's Day, but when the new year was celebrated at the end of March, typically the last week of March.
00:13:10.635 --> 00:13:17.895
They had mostly in France, a festival, a week long festival called The Feast of Fools.
00:13:19.336 --> 00:13:27.196
Hey everyone, if you've seen Hunchback of Notre Dame, the you would know that they have the Feast of Fools in
00:13:27.196 --> 00:13:27.735
Paris.
00:13:28.005 --> 00:13:28.485
Okay.
00:13:29.446 --> 00:13:36.645
And it sounds like Mardi Gras plus, you know, Renaissance Fair, like a week of just drunken nonsense.
00:13:36.706 --> 00:13:37.125
Yes.
00:13:37.755 --> 00:13:45.466
And so once they implemented the Gregorian calendar in, like I said, mostly France, it's not like they had CNN.
00:13:46.530 --> 00:13:50.431
Breaking news to tell'em that that wasn't the new year anymore.
00:13:50.910 --> 00:13:54.465
And so they started becoming known as the April Fools.
00:13:55.558 --> 00:14:00.688
Oh, the people who were still celebrating the New year in the spring.
00:14:00.958 --> 00:14:01.349
Okay.
00:14:02.969 --> 00:14:05.158
Because the Feast of Fools rolled into April.
00:14:07.649 --> 00:14:10.828
So that's all the history things.
00:14:10.859 --> 00:14:12.928
Now is this just.
00:14:13.558 --> 00:14:22.948
Does it just make good and logical sense that the world have a uniform way to keep track of time?
00:14:23.908 --> 00:14:30.239
Or was it a way to give a centralized institution more control?
00:14:32.874 --> 00:14:33.793
I'm gonna say I'm Catholic.
00:14:33.793 --> 00:14:34.313
You're Catholic.
00:14:34.313 --> 00:14:38.818
We both love and appreciate our faith, but we both have no.
00:14:39.778 --> 00:14:43.769
Illusions as to the perfectness of the humans running the church.
00:14:43.769 --> 00:14:44.009
Sure.
00:14:44.188 --> 00:14:56.999
And back in the day, I mean, there's been a lot of corrupt nonsense that has happened, so I can definitely question and criticize that, of course, with leaving my faith intact.
00:14:56.999 --> 00:15:07.889
So the Catholic church definitely benefited from dictating time itself, so moving away from natural rhythms and timekeeping.
00:15:08.323 --> 00:15:16.754
Helps keep people def dependent on artificial schedules and disconnected from their own connection to nature and the wisdom that comes with that.
00:15:19.754 --> 00:15:32.144
By reforming the calendar, the church demonstrated its scientific capability and authority cementing its role in setting the standard for measuring time, which was adopted by most nations.
00:15:32.144 --> 00:15:36.823
I think it's like 90% of countries in the world and.
00:15:37.168 --> 00:16:01.568
Part of the reason that I have found that they did that, like I said, is to keep Easter in the springtime, and a lot of prominent Catholic apologists today will tell you that no, the Catholic church was not taking Pagan customs and adopting them in to their customs to try to convert the pagans.
00:16:03.958 --> 00:16:05.158
They make a good case for that.
00:16:05.158 --> 00:16:23.788
But I have a really hard time believing that really and truly because the way I grew up and the things that I studied growing up, I know about the things that correlate with Halloween and the things that correlate with Easter, and there's just too much crossover for me to really, truly believe that that wasn't happening.
00:16:23.788 --> 00:16:25.948
Because really it's a brilliant marketing strategy.
00:16:26.938 --> 00:16:27.808
Here's these pagans.
00:16:27.808 --> 00:16:32.099
We want them to be Catholics at that time, Christians,'cause that's all there was.
00:16:32.833 --> 00:16:37.394
So we're gonna take their things and go, yo, we have that too, but better.
00:16:38.384 --> 00:16:45.793
So this was a way to control those pagans a little more.
00:16:45.793 --> 00:16:46.874
Prove their authority.
00:16:47.264 --> 00:16:48.134
Why don't you come over here?
00:16:48.134 --> 00:16:49.994
We know we literally control time.
00:16:50.443 --> 00:16:51.764
You may as well get on our team.
00:16:53.129 --> 00:16:54.283
that's just my thought.
00:16:54.374 --> 00:16:57.193
So then I read.
00:16:58.933 --> 00:17:10.544
Some speculation that the current calendar benefits banks and governments because the uneven months make it more difficult for regular people like me and you to keep track of bills, interest, taxes, et cetera.
00:17:12.163 --> 00:17:18.913
How much thought have you put into the length of the quarters of the year, like the fiscal quarters?
00:17:19.903 --> 00:17:20.653
Probably not a lot.
00:17:20.653 --> 00:17:20.894
Right?
00:17:20.894 --> 00:17:23.023
I have put zero thought into it until yesterday.
00:17:23.864 --> 00:17:25.838
Quarter one is 90 days.
00:17:26.653 --> 00:17:26.713
Okay.
00:17:27.358 --> 00:17:29.278
January, February, March 31, 28.
00:17:29.278 --> 00:17:32.699
31, 90 days, quarter 2 91.
00:17:32.699 --> 00:17:34.709
Days 30, 31.
00:17:34.709 --> 00:17:40.828
30 quarter, 3 92 days, quarter 4 92 days.
00:17:43.108 --> 00:17:44.548
Like so how are you?
00:17:44.578 --> 00:17:50.804
How are we calculating the interest if everything's happening on the first of the month, the 15th of the month, the 30th of the month?
00:17:50.878 --> 00:17:52.078
How do we, what tax?
00:17:52.199 --> 00:17:54.838
Like let's keep it confusing.
00:17:55.828 --> 00:18:02.848
That we tell you how much you have to pay or like now you have to guess how much taxes you owe, and if you get it wrong, you go to jail.
00:18:03.088 --> 00:18:03.659
Crazy.
00:18:05.489 --> 00:18:19.709
So a guy named Moses Cosworth in 1902 proposed a solution that we go back to the 13 months of 28 days with the year day.
00:18:19.709 --> 00:18:20.878
That's not part of any month.
00:18:21.209 --> 00:18:24.848
So like Washington, DC is not a state.
00:18:26.308 --> 00:18:27.689
The year day is not a month.
00:18:28.709 --> 00:18:30.538
There's a leap day added every four years.
00:18:30.989 --> 00:18:34.199
Perfect quarters of exactly 91 days, 13 weeks.
00:18:35.919 --> 00:18:45.638
a lot of people, international businesses, league of Nations, supported it seriously considered at adapting it, adopting it.
00:18:45.638 --> 00:18:46.028
Hello.
00:18:47.118 --> 00:18:48.169
lots of scientists.
00:18:48.288 --> 00:18:51.499
George Eastman, the Kodak founder, was totally on board with it.
00:18:53.193 --> 00:18:58.743
It failed because religious leaders said, absolutely not.
00:18:58.743 --> 00:19:00.394
It disrupts the Sabbath cycle.
00:19:02.044 --> 00:19:05.253
Governments resisted because of tax overhaul.
00:19:06.743 --> 00:19:16.594
Banks totally resisted it because of interest calculation losses, and so they all said, no, it's culture, cultural inertia.
00:19:16.773 --> 00:19:18.364
We're too big to change now.
00:19:18.814 --> 00:19:19.864
Nothing we can do about it now.
00:19:22.637 --> 00:19:35.449
So whether you, whether you see the nefarious in it or not, it's really hard to argue that the adaptation of the Gregorian son of a bitch, the adoption, these are my own notes.
00:19:35.598 --> 00:19:43.519
The adoption of the Gregorian calendar has disconnected us all from like nature, our own logic, our own wisdom.
00:19:44.673 --> 00:19:52.294
And that's part of why I've always said New Year's resolutions are just bullshit because this is the coldest, darkest grossest time of the year.
00:19:52.564 --> 00:19:54.064
I wanna just hibernate in my house.
00:19:54.064 --> 00:20:00.784
I don't want to get up and do things But the second that Vernal Equinox hits, I'm like, hell yeah, let's clean the house, buddy.
00:20:01.263 --> 00:20:03.064
So there's a lot to that.
00:20:05.344 --> 00:20:12.094
And I spent this whole morning thinking a lot about my Normie friends and.
00:20:12.979 --> 00:20:15.558
Conspiracies and like what that actually means.
00:20:15.558 --> 00:20:26.419
And I don't think, I don't know that Pope Gregory the 13th was like, let's just f all these peasants and change the calendar.
00:20:26.778 --> 00:20:33.439
But I do think that there is a group of people who run the world.
00:20:33.919 --> 00:20:39.259
I don't know who they are, so I just, I'm gonna call 'em, they, and they have power.
00:20:39.259 --> 00:20:40.249
It's not about money.
00:20:40.953 --> 00:20:44.584
The people who are after the money are like mid-level managers.
00:20:45.213 --> 00:20:48.784
There's a whole other class of people above them that just want the power.
00:20:49.534 --> 00:20:51.784
And like I've said, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
00:20:52.173 --> 00:20:55.594
And I think that money does weird things to people.
00:20:56.493 --> 00:21:09.874
And so if these controlling people now have access to corrupt these mid, mid-level managers with money, then they can get a lot of people on board to do some really shady shit.
00:21:11.298 --> 00:21:31.009
And my very innocuous non conspiracy example of that is grocery store products, any products, but like you think about going to the grocery store and this bag of chips has less and less and less chips in it over time.
00:21:32.058 --> 00:21:32.959
And then.
00:21:34.249 --> 00:21:39.648
They finally make the packaging a little bit smaller to accommodate those less and less chips, right?
00:21:39.648 --> 00:21:42.259
So they've lost like 30% of the chips.
00:21:42.949 --> 00:21:47.598
And then, oh look, the price went up by 15% because inflation.
00:21:48.828 --> 00:21:53.088
And then when people are like, what the hell, I used to get way more chips than this.
00:21:53.209 --> 00:21:56.818
Then they come out and go, look, we've added 25% more chips.
00:21:58.638 --> 00:22:01.249
And then they raise the price and over and over and over again.
00:22:01.249 --> 00:22:01.578
That's.
00:22:02.209 --> 00:22:07.038
I brought that up when I was like 19, and somebody in my life was like, no, that's bullshit.
00:22:07.038 --> 00:22:07.729
They're not doing that.
00:22:08.088 --> 00:22:14.028
And then it was actually in a marketing and business class that I took in college, like, yes, they 100% do that.
00:22:14.028 --> 00:22:15.558
That is so well known now.
00:22:16.338 --> 00:22:20.148
But in order for that to work, everybody has to be on board, all of the producers.
00:22:21.169 --> 00:22:23.298
And so that's happening.
00:22:24.828 --> 00:22:30.019
So this calendar manipulation might not have started off as like a super nefarious thing, but it.
00:22:31.804 --> 00:22:40.564
It benefited some people in financial ways and so it's hard to not, it's hard for me to not see the conspiracy in it.
00:22:41.913 --> 00:22:54.124
And then the really fun part about it, if you want to go really crazy conspiracies, which I don't know how I feel about this at all, but when you're looking up calendar conspiracies, have you ever heard of the phantom time theory?
00:22:54.663 --> 00:22:55.144
No.
00:22:55.773 --> 00:22:57.304
This is wild.
00:22:57.814 --> 00:22:58.294
So.
00:22:59.044 --> 00:23:04.263
German amateur historian Herbert.
00:23:04.354 --> 00:23:06.094
I don't think that's how you pronounce that, but I'm gonna call him.
00:23:06.094 --> 00:23:23.638
Herbert Iig wrote a book in 1996 called The Invented Middle Ages, the Greatest Time Falsification in History, which suggests that the years six 14 to nine 11, a sizable chunk of the Middle Ages never happened.
00:23:25.534 --> 00:23:26.973
So it was just like stories.
00:23:27.544 --> 00:23:50.644
So he says that Holy Roman Emperor Otto ii, Pope Sylvester ii, and possibly Roman Emperor Constantine the seventh conspired to make up 297 years of history, including the reign of Charlemagne, the Viking raids on Europe and countless other historical events in order to place Otto's rule in the year 1000.
00:23:51.814 --> 00:23:59.163
1000 years after Christ's death, the main reason being he wanted to rule a thousand years after the birth of Christ.
00:23:59.193 --> 00:24:11.074
How historians have offered considerable evidence that debunks the theory, not the least of which is that this hypothesis ignores the development of other cultures around the world during those 300 years.
00:24:11.374 --> 00:24:17.263
And apparently, astronomers have also said no, that's for sure not real, but.
00:24:18.134 --> 00:24:31.663
It's like a, a whole theory that people have flushed out and it just cracks me up because if they can just wipe out 10 or 11 days from the calendar here and there, like why couldn't they just wipe out 300 years?
00:24:33.193 --> 00:24:34.814
Because again, who's writing the history books?
00:24:34.814 --> 00:24:35.054
Who's
00:24:35.054 --> 00:24:35.394
writing writing?
00:24:35.394 --> 00:24:36.104
Who's writing the history books?
00:24:36.104 --> 00:24:36.973
What's going on?
00:24:36.973 --> 00:24:45.134
That's really that monumental in that time period anyway, that needs, that would significantly change how things continued on.
00:24:45.134 --> 00:24:46.364
Even if you did remove it.
00:24:46.423 --> 00:24:46.693
Yeah.
00:24:47.729 --> 00:24:52.259
It's those comments that we make of, well, that's a day of my life.
00:24:52.259 --> 00:24:53.278
I'll never be able to get back.
00:24:53.278 --> 00:24:57.058
When you have to do some really shitty stuff, is it gonna make a monumental change?
00:24:57.058 --> 00:24:57.598
No.
00:24:58.108 --> 00:24:58.409
Right.
00:24:58.469 --> 00:25:00.239
Or like even when you fly.
00:25:01.769 --> 00:25:02.038
Sure.
00:25:02.159 --> 00:25:09.028
Like from Australia to here, you, you, the whole day of your life doesn't exist because you're crossing time zones,
00:25:09.058 --> 00:25:10.378
which it's so hard to take.
00:25:10.693 --> 00:25:12.253
Medication on those days too.
00:25:12.554 --> 00:25:16.273
'cause you're, you think, oh yeah, I was supposed to take this at night every night.
00:25:16.273 --> 00:25:19.483
So is it just 24 hours then it throws me off for everything else.
00:25:19.513 --> 00:25:19.814
Yeah.
00:25:19.963 --> 00:25:21.374
It's a crazy, I don't like that.
00:25:22.153 --> 00:25:28.094
So I do wanna ask how you count your calendar, how you count the months of the year.
00:25:29.054 --> 00:25:29.473
Days.
00:25:29.594 --> 00:25:31.993
How do you remember the days in a month?
00:25:32.624 --> 00:25:33.344
Oh, like which?
00:25:33.523 --> 00:25:34.153
Like that rhyme.
00:25:34.153 --> 00:25:35.503
I never could remember that rhyme.
00:25:35.503 --> 00:25:36.223
So I don't, there's a
00:25:36.223 --> 00:25:36.614
rhyme
00:25:36.618 --> 00:25:36.939
Uhhuh,
00:25:37.273 --> 00:25:38.173
I use my knuckles
00:25:38.173 --> 00:25:38.773
30 days.
00:25:40.048 --> 00:25:43.019
Have September, April, June and November.
00:25:43.588 --> 00:25:45.509
There's more to it than that, but like, I don't remember.
00:25:45.568 --> 00:25:46.624
I use my knuckles do
00:25:46.624 --> 00:25:46.784
not.
00:25:46.784 --> 00:25:48.749
My freaking birthday's in April and I can't remember that.
00:25:48.749 --> 00:25:50.909
It only has 30 days, so I don't freaking know.
00:25:51.209 --> 00:25:52.229
Do you not use your knuckles?
00:25:52.233 --> 00:25:52.463
Uhuh.
00:25:52.798 --> 00:25:56.578
So you're supposed to put a, like make a fist and use the knuckles.
00:25:56.578 --> 00:25:59.009
So every knuckle is a month with.
00:25:59.669 --> 00:26:00.058
31
00:26:00.058 --> 00:26:00.838
31 days.
00:26:00.838 --> 00:26:06.989
So January, February, March, April, may, June, July, and then you restart because that gets to your last knuckle.
00:26:07.108 --> 00:26:07.739
Because if
00:26:07.739 --> 00:26:10.138
you're, if you have all of your way,
00:26:10.199 --> 00:26:12.989
Julius, Caesar and Augustus wanted
00:26:12.989 --> 00:26:13.828
both had 31.
00:26:13.828 --> 00:26:15.298
They wanted to have 31 days.
00:26:15.298 --> 00:26:15.628
Yeah.
00:26:15.628 --> 00:26:17.519
So now it goes back.
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:19.108
So that's how I have to remember.
00:26:19.114 --> 00:26:19.173
I,
00:26:19.324 --> 00:26:19.773
I've heard of that.
00:26:19.798 --> 00:26:20.608
I just can't
00:26:20.608 --> 00:26:21.358
because I'm 42.
00:26:21.598 --> 00:26:21.838
Yeah.
00:26:22.078 --> 00:26:22.588
I don't,
00:26:23.459 --> 00:26:24.388
that's how I have to do it.
00:26:24.449 --> 00:26:24.778
Yeah.
00:26:24.898 --> 00:26:25.378
What?
00:26:25.558 --> 00:26:25.798
Yeah.
00:26:26.429 --> 00:26:27.118
It's wild,
00:26:27.148 --> 00:26:29.759
but like, I mean, time is a construct, right?
00:26:29.788 --> 00:26:44.159
I obviously there's seasons and obvi, like all those things are real, but like the fact that humans have quantified it and regulated it and our entire lives revolve around time.
00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:47.558
We get paid for our hours at work.
00:26:48.419 --> 00:26:49.709
everything is time.
00:26:51.118 --> 00:26:53.653
And the Catholic church went, we own that.
00:26:55.153 --> 00:26:56.384
Is wild to me.
00:27:00.253 --> 00:27:03.074
I think all of it's really fucking crazy.
00:27:03.134 --> 00:27:03.403
Yeah.
00:27:03.403 --> 00:27:20.144
I think the fact that if we would've been in a better position or a better understanding, if it was 13 months with equal days and it was structured and it was easier for people to make their own decisions and.
00:27:20.818 --> 00:27:23.669
Kind of be in control of what they were doing.
00:27:24.088 --> 00:27:36.808
So that's where the bigger conspiracy theory comes in of, oh my God, I just, gosh, if I knew that every month started on a Sunday, it was 28 days and it was like rinse and repeat, literally.
00:27:36.808 --> 00:27:37.138
Yep.
00:27:37.348 --> 00:27:38.608
Oh, how beautiful.
00:27:38.638 --> 00:27:38.878
Yeah.
00:27:38.878 --> 00:27:49.618
Now I have to count on my knuckles and I don't know when things I wanna be, I wanna have total autonomy of knowing when things are.
00:27:49.993 --> 00:28:02.624
Gonna change and shift and not based on some weird numerical concept and construct that has been placed there for me to now just have to fall in line for
00:28:02.653 --> 00:28:14.413
Well, and then every like emergency room nurse I've ever talked to, a lot of vet techs we've had that go down like full moon fucks people up.
00:28:15.943 --> 00:28:17.713
I, I'm telling you.
00:28:18.659 --> 00:28:21.778
My kids start acting like a cat in a bathtub.
00:28:21.778 --> 00:28:24.148
Like it's, it would be nice.
00:28:24.179 --> 00:28:29.368
And one I, every time I look at the calendar, I go, oh, it's a full moon.
00:28:29.398 --> 00:28:29.848
That's why.
00:28:29.909 --> 00:28:30.959
That's why.
00:28:32.548 --> 00:28:42.118
But wouldn't it be cool to just know that more intuitively, we've been so disconnected from that, it'd be amazing to just know there's a full moon coming up.
00:28:42.118 --> 00:28:44.009
These idiots are gonna start acting like idiots.
00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:45.838
Idiots gonna idiot.
00:28:45.929 --> 00:28:46.348
You know?
00:28:46.348 --> 00:28:46.769
And.
00:28:47.729 --> 00:28:50.189
It's not so shocking, but
00:28:50.818 --> 00:28:51.959
just kind of expected.
00:28:52.169 --> 00:29:03.959
I did read somewhere that the calendar was originally in like the k. Like with a calendar K and it was 'cause len's or however they wanna say it in that time period referred to the taxes.
00:29:04.318 --> 00:29:05.128
So,
00:29:05.219 --> 00:29:06.449
oh, I did read something about that.
00:29:06.479 --> 00:29:08.638
Yeah, so there was something about that.
00:29:08.729 --> 00:29:22.648
I didn't look hard enough to remember just the source of it, but I saw that and I thought that's very interesting and also makes sense because even in the days of your all the Roman Empire days.
00:29:23.023 --> 00:29:24.193
Taxes was a thing.
00:29:24.223 --> 00:29:25.003
Jesus time.
00:29:25.003 --> 00:29:26.144
It was taxes was a thing.
00:29:26.144 --> 00:29:27.463
You always paid your taxes.
00:29:27.493 --> 00:29:27.733
Yeah.
00:29:28.094 --> 00:29:28.574
So
00:29:28.574 --> 00:29:30.044
give to Caesar, what is Caesar's?
00:29:30.134 --> 00:29:30.523
Yeah.
00:29:30.554 --> 00:29:39.594
And the fact that it was like, no, we're gonna lose a lot on interest calculations is, a little bit of a head scratcher for me.
00:29:39.594 --> 00:29:40.614
Mm-hmm.
00:29:40.644 --> 00:29:48.804
And so I don I, like I said, I don't think that that was necessarily like a nefarious beginning.
00:29:50.064 --> 00:29:54.953
But I think people quickly realized who was benefiting from it and they fought to keep it.
00:29:55.013 --> 00:29:57.953
Well, what do you think it was at the beginning though, if it wasn't nefarious?
00:29:57.983 --> 00:30:07.374
I think that the Catholic church was on a quest, you know, the Holy Roman empire like that was it.
00:30:07.403 --> 00:30:16.824
They, they were to rule the world and they wanted to own science and religion and time.
00:30:16.824 --> 00:30:17.618
I think it was the power.
00:30:18.983 --> 00:30:19.614
Power grab.
00:30:22.913 --> 00:30:23.273
Yeah.
00:30:25.193 --> 00:30:32.034
What do you think if everyone just started to, I mean, can we ever get normalcy back?
00:30:32.034 --> 00:30:42.503
We're just in this, when I hear the theories of us li living in a simulation and thinking of all that, makes me want to.
00:30:43.659 --> 00:30:52.328
Just, I mean, I'm, I'm so concerned about budgeting my life and trying to do all this, so it kind of makes you upset with that.
00:30:52.419 --> 00:30:54.398
Does it make you wanna just quit and go live in the woods?
00:30:55.058 --> 00:30:55.778
Yes,
00:30:55.808 --> 00:30:56.679
because it does me.
00:30:56.679 --> 00:30:56.739
Yeah.
00:30:56.769 --> 00:31:04.808
Like there's a huge part of me that's like, fuck it, I wanna go live in the woods and just live off grid completely.
00:31:04.898 --> 00:31:09.489
But I really like indoor plumbing and electricity.
00:31:09.489 --> 00:31:11.284
And electricity and getting my packages in two days.
00:31:12.804 --> 00:31:14.844
It's a massive internal struggle for me.
00:31:15.324 --> 00:31:17.513
So there's, yeah, but there's the whole,
00:31:17.544 --> 00:31:19.074
but I want all that knowledge.
00:31:20.003 --> 00:31:20.304
Yeah,
00:31:20.544 --> 00:31:25.733
I You're talking about like witchy shit, but like, like a old wise woman, the sages.
00:31:25.733 --> 00:31:26.213
Yeah.
00:31:26.213 --> 00:31:27.324
I want that knowledge.
00:31:27.324 --> 00:31:34.163
I wanna know what things I can grow in my garden that would heal things like I want, I want that knowledge.
00:31:36.338 --> 00:31:38.648
Yeah, and I feel like I'm never as hard as I try.
00:31:38.648 --> 00:31:41.288
I can get some of it, but I'm never gonna have all of it and it makes me sad.
00:31:41.409 --> 00:31:48.098
No, I feel like the only people who truly have that knowledge are people who are living that experience of having to figure it out on the fly.
00:31:48.189 --> 00:31:48.669
Yeah.
00:31:48.669 --> 00:32:00.219
No, and having been brought up in that, yeah, the only way you're gonna know what tea to make for whatever ailment you have is literally if that was your life, that this is what you do, these are the things you have.
00:32:01.403 --> 00:32:03.354
And this is what, this is how it works.
00:32:03.384 --> 00:32:03.534
Yeah.
00:32:03.534 --> 00:32:10.673
It's just, it's a cool, I always looked at that and I thought like, I'll watch period piece movies.
00:32:10.673 --> 00:32:11.003
Right.
00:32:11.003 --> 00:32:13.374
You know, I was on little women for like ever.
00:32:13.374 --> 00:32:13.794
I love that.
00:32:13.794 --> 00:32:14.544
During Christmas.
00:32:15.429 --> 00:32:18.189
But I like that period, civil war time.
00:32:18.249 --> 00:32:19.088
It's not ideal.
00:32:19.118 --> 00:32:23.048
No one wants to live during that time, but I just think, gosh, it was so simple.
00:32:23.199 --> 00:32:24.519
Yeah, it must been so simple.
00:32:24.969 --> 00:32:29.378
Then you have like Bridger Tin era, which is, I don't know if you watch Bridger on Netflix.
00:32:29.378 --> 00:32:41.828
I wouldn't think so, but that's now very Bougie Britain era of, I don't even know what time period, but not even really war.
00:32:41.858 --> 00:32:43.568
There's not much war going on in Bridger 10.
00:32:44.423 --> 00:32:46.584
I think, oh, would I wanna survive in that?
00:32:46.584 --> 00:32:53.933
Where you have the coming out parties and you have to go like meet the Queen and you know, almost the original cotillions.
00:32:53.933 --> 00:32:54.503
I guess.
00:32:55.284 --> 00:32:56.094
Do I want that?
00:32:56.124 --> 00:32:56.753
I don't know.
00:32:56.753 --> 00:33:01.193
It seems a little, I don't really wanna wear corsets and not to that extent.
00:33:01.733 --> 00:33:02.574
I was a theater kid.
00:33:02.574 --> 00:33:03.084
I've had to wear
00:33:03.084 --> 00:33:03.653
corsets.
00:33:03.653 --> 00:33:04.344
No, thank you.
00:33:04.344 --> 00:33:04.824
Same.
00:33:04.824 --> 00:33:05.483
Not fun.
00:33:05.483 --> 00:33:07.433
So little women is probably.
00:33:08.019 --> 00:33:09.788
The era that I would say.
00:33:10.088 --> 00:33:14.409
But then I also see Gatsby and I'm like, well, I could survive in the Roar in twenties.
00:33:14.469 --> 00:33:15.128
Oh yeah, buddy.
00:33:15.189 --> 00:33:19.028
But that there was so much of a crash after that.
00:33:19.058 --> 00:33:19.209
Yeah.
00:33:19.209 --> 00:33:21.669
That was so, you know, be careful what you wish for.
00:33:22.628 --> 00:33:24.699
I mean, there's pluses and minuses to every era.
00:33:24.699 --> 00:33:24.759
To
00:33:24.788 --> 00:33:25.628
every era.
00:33:25.868 --> 00:33:26.469
Like I,
00:33:26.499 --> 00:33:27.848
Peaky Blinders I live in.
00:33:27.848 --> 00:33:28.328
Yeah.
00:33:28.358 --> 00:33:29.679
I love Peaky Blinders,
00:33:29.709 --> 00:33:42.308
but I think my point is, I. It is so hard because if that, if it was supposed to be simpler, I feel like every era has just gotten more complex.
00:33:42.338 --> 00:33:42.429
Mm-hmm.
00:33:42.669 --> 00:33:48.249
In number one, the expectations, but two, what you make versus what it costs to live.
00:33:48.249 --> 00:33:48.338
Mm-hmm.
00:33:48.638 --> 00:33:53.469
And then fast forward to the banking system and everything going on.
00:33:53.469 --> 00:33:57.489
In our world it's, can we ever get ahead?
00:33:57.759 --> 00:33:59.469
I know that money.
00:34:00.189 --> 00:34:04.239
Is a whole link to corruption, whatever.
00:34:05.019 --> 00:34:05.949
I will tell you what,
00:34:06.368 --> 00:34:07.659
I don't want corruption money.
00:34:07.659 --> 00:34:09.938
I just want whatever's right under that.
00:34:09.938 --> 00:34:18.429
Listen, I will tell you what, to the people who have the money that they would like to try to corrupt someone, please, I will be an, I will be an example.
00:34:18.489 --> 00:34:24.699
I promise to be true to who I am whilst taking all this money.
00:34:25.778 --> 00:34:26.378
I think it's fair.
00:34:26.409 --> 00:34:28.028
I think it would be a good social experiment.
00:34:28.028 --> 00:34:28.509
Let's.
00:34:28.853 --> 00:34:30.804
Just give me a bunch of money.
00:34:31.224 --> 00:34:32.034
You can have some too.
00:34:32.364 --> 00:34:32.724
Thank you.
00:34:32.844 --> 00:34:36.233
Not corruption level, but what you would give anyone.
00:34:36.233 --> 00:34:38.333
No, actually I do want corruption level money.
00:34:38.634 --> 00:34:42.233
I want what you would give someone in order to corrupt them and solidify it.
00:34:42.324 --> 00:34:44.003
I want $1 less than that.
00:34:44.034 --> 00:34:49.103
And in the proof of showing you that you can give me corruption money and I'm not gonna do anything with it.
00:34:49.583 --> 00:34:53.239
I feel that that shit is also, yes, money does it.
00:34:54.369 --> 00:34:55.478
Power does it more?
00:34:55.539 --> 00:34:56.378
Oh yeah, for sure.
00:34:56.498 --> 00:34:57.608
You are gonna have the power.
00:34:57.849 --> 00:34:58.838
I don't want the power though.
00:34:58.869 --> 00:35:00.039
I just, I don't either want the money.
00:35:00.099 --> 00:35:06.039
I just want the money and I wanna be able to live comfortably and not have to overstress every day.
00:35:06.068 --> 00:35:06.159
Mm-hmm.
00:35:06.398 --> 00:35:11.168
About the shit that is what it seems or is not what it seems.
00:35:11.168 --> 00:35:15.789
And why is this bag of smart pop popcorn less?
00:35:15.849 --> 00:35:15.969
Mm-hmm.
00:35:16.239 --> 00:35:21.909
But yet the Oreo package is still the same because they've just shrunk the ounces and given you like one or two less Oreos.
00:35:21.909 --> 00:35:22.193
I will say chips.
00:35:23.003 --> 00:35:25.014
Chips do the bigger disservice in the grocery store.
00:35:25.014 --> 00:35:25.074
Yeah.
00:35:25.074 --> 00:35:25.943
So back to your example.
00:35:25.943 --> 00:35:27.324
Chips and anything bagged.
00:35:27.443 --> 00:35:27.534
Mm-hmm.
00:35:27.773 --> 00:35:29.903
If you're in a package, you're better.
00:35:30.773 --> 00:35:31.253
But still,
00:35:31.494 --> 00:35:37.974
I'm gonna say, if anybody ever sees my children out in public on a non-school day, they know I don't want the power.
00:35:38.543 --> 00:35:40.079
'cause those people dress themselves,
00:35:42.384 --> 00:35:42.983
those people.
00:35:43.313 --> 00:35:44.213
It's what it is.
00:35:44.423 --> 00:35:50.034
I do not want power, but you know, I know someone who.
00:35:50.829 --> 00:35:58.599
Worked on a security detail for a very powerful person in our lives.
00:35:58.838 --> 00:35:59.079
Okay.
00:35:59.318 --> 00:35:59.708
Okay.
00:35:59.918 --> 00:36:02.498
I'm gonna try to not give too many details 'cause that's not the point.
00:36:02.498 --> 00:36:11.949
The point is that that guy has so much effing money and this person that I know was like, the interesting thing is he doesn't seem to care about the money.
00:36:11.949 --> 00:36:14.228
He still drives like a shitty old like Toyota Corolla.
00:36:14.934 --> 00:36:17.903
I don't remember if that's what it was, but it was like he drives a shitty car.
00:36:18.264 --> 00:36:21.684
His house is not, it's very nice for where it is.
00:36:21.684 --> 00:36:28.313
It's in a very nice part of the town, but it's not a huge mansion or anything like that.
00:36:28.434 --> 00:36:36.384
What this guy very clearly cares about is the power, and this guy is ruined millions of people's lives.
00:36:38.333 --> 00:36:39.534
He cares about the power.
00:36:39.594 --> 00:36:41.454
That's all he cares about.
00:36:41.454 --> 00:36:42.923
So I totally agree with you.
00:36:43.074 --> 00:36:43.523
Interesting
00:36:43.523 --> 00:36:47.364
that power is more corrosive than even money.
00:36:47.603 --> 00:36:49.523
And that's why I think that there are people
00:36:49.853 --> 00:36:50.003
for
00:36:50.003 --> 00:36:55.043
sure pulling the strings, hundred percent who only care about the power and then they control the people who care about the money.
00:36:55.463 --> 00:37:06.233
And then they are all beating up our lives and adding more and more and more and more and more so that we can't pay attention to what's.
00:37:06.653 --> 00:37:09.143
Really going on, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
00:37:09.443 --> 00:37:11.784
Like that's, I firmly believe that that's happening.
00:37:11.813 --> 00:37:12.114
Sure.
00:37:12.744 --> 00:37:36.054
And then even below, the people with the money are the people who are caught in the machine who think that they're doing the right thing, but they're caught in the machine and they don't have time to step outside, or they don't have the means or the way, or the energy, the bandwidth, whatever, to step outside that machine and look around and go, this isn't right.
00:37:37.463 --> 00:37:42.594
Or the people who have done that get absolutely blasted for it.
00:37:43.614 --> 00:37:47.454
And so it behooves you to just keep your head down and be in the machine.
00:37:50.753 --> 00:37:51.864
I don't wanna be in a machine.
00:37:52.463 --> 00:37:54.954
I would really like a calendar that just made more sense.
00:37:55.014 --> 00:37:55.583
I would too.
00:37:55.704 --> 00:38:00.804
I would like to know that my birthday is on the same day every year and that Christmas is gonna be on the same day every year and Easter.
00:38:01.074 --> 00:38:01.224
Yeah.
00:38:01.224 --> 00:38:06.954
And all of these things that we all, oh, well, you can't do it that day because this year, Christmas is on a Tuesday.
00:38:07.043 --> 00:38:07.253
Yeah.
00:38:07.403 --> 00:38:10.344
We're just shucks, what do I do about that?
00:38:10.373 --> 00:38:12.204
I just want order.
00:38:12.204 --> 00:38:20.603
I think everything is, as much as I love to be in control of certain aspects of my life, everything I can control, I always say.
00:38:21.503 --> 00:38:28.164
There's so much that's not in my control and it comes down to shit that I would've never even thought about.
00:38:28.224 --> 00:38:29.364
Like a calendar.
00:38:29.364 --> 00:38:29.483
Mm-hmm.
00:38:29.724 --> 00:38:37.494
Like it wasn't like this when it first started and now it is because it became more convenient for everyone running the show.
00:38:37.704 --> 00:38:37.793
Yeah.
00:38:37.793 --> 00:38:38.844
You're just in the show.
00:38:39.143 --> 00:38:43.554
But these people, it needs to be easier for them 'cause they're running it and they're benefiting off it
00:38:43.733 --> 00:38:45.233
and it does make sense.
00:38:46.329 --> 00:38:56.739
With this world that we live in today, like the world is smaller with the digital shit, blah, blah, blah, to have like a centralized calendar for everybody to follow in the whole world.
00:38:56.739 --> 00:39:08.978
But if not a hundred percent of the people are following it, then it may, you know, Ethiopia, I mean, I don't know what their GDP is.
00:39:09.099 --> 00:39:11.289
I don't know anything about their economy, but like,
00:39:11.289 --> 00:39:12.219
I'm gonna go with not high,
00:39:12.398 --> 00:39:12.849
but like.
00:39:14.724 --> 00:39:20.753
Get on board with our calendar or you are not going to thrive as a country.
00:39:22.043 --> 00:39:22.313
Right.
00:39:22.313 --> 00:39:22.943
That's what I'm saying.
00:39:22.974 --> 00:39:24.204
So like
00:39:25.134 --> 00:39:25.914
respectfully,
00:39:25.914 --> 00:39:29.094
they can say it makes sense to have everybody be on the same calendar.
00:39:29.273 --> 00:39:29.514
Sure.
00:39:30.293 --> 00:39:32.003
But can't that calendar make some sense?
00:39:32.934 --> 00:39:33.864
Just logic.
00:39:33.923 --> 00:39:33.983
Yeah.
00:39:33.983 --> 00:39:36.534
It goes back to logic, which nobody has apparently.
00:39:36.534 --> 00:39:42.173
No, we have it and I just want it, but I really do wanna test the theory of I will get the, I'll take the money.
00:39:43.463 --> 00:39:44.123
Happily.
00:39:44.153 --> 00:39:44.304
Yeah,
00:39:44.333 --> 00:39:47.543
just for science, for research, just to know.
00:39:47.753 --> 00:39:54.054
So if you hear me say Happy fake New Year for all of January, that's what's up.
00:39:54.653 --> 00:40:01.043
And I will 100% be telling everybody Happy New Year on the spring Equinox.
00:40:01.583 --> 00:40:11.483
Not because I'm like a weird Pagan person or I'm bad Catholic, just because I think that that's when New Year should start.
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:24.458
Also though, I think to anyone who could, even if you're looking at this from just an a third party, very neutral, very uninvolved, haven't done the research perspective.
00:40:25.179 --> 00:40:36.188
When you talk about New Year and just new life, it logically makes sense that it would be when the flowers are blooming and not when everything is dormant sleeping.
00:40:36.608 --> 00:40:40.418
If you're gonna cut out whole periods of middle Ages according to some people.
00:40:40.809 --> 00:40:44.889
You can cut out the sleepy portion of the year and make it even less.
00:40:44.918 --> 00:40:46.418
I mean, if you wanna start,
00:40:46.748 --> 00:40:46.989
yeah,
00:40:47.018 --> 00:40:55.458
cutting away, but to add a month to make it make sense more, I'm just the fan of, I like logic so much.
00:40:55.518 --> 00:40:56.719
I like order.
00:40:57.139 --> 00:41:04.938
I like knowing things because everything can happen, even when you know it, that is out of your control.
00:41:04.938 --> 00:41:09.259
So I think for me, when I start hearing about the new Year thing, and then there's.
00:41:09.813 --> 00:41:11.193
There's so many things though.
00:41:11.224 --> 00:41:13.159
Zodiac signs, there's 13.
00:41:13.954 --> 00:41:17.733
They want, you know, it's supposed to be 13 months in the year, 28 days.
00:41:17.733 --> 00:41:19.143
Everything's starting on Sunday.
00:41:19.264 --> 00:41:23.403
Well, and because our current 12 Zodiac signs are not monthly.
00:41:24.333 --> 00:41:24.454
No.
00:41:24.454 --> 00:41:29.853
They're like, well, yeah, you're born in April, so you might be in Aries, but you could also be a Taurus.
00:41:30.724 --> 00:41:31.384
Like, come on, people, it's the
00:41:31.384 --> 00:41:32.673
21st or the 22nd.
00:41:32.673 --> 00:41:34.728
It's always of something ridiculous.
00:41:34.728 --> 00:41:34.739
So.
00:41:35.403 --> 00:41:36.934
You have the zodiac signs.
00:41:36.934 --> 00:41:40.684
This, you know, there's the whole world of astrology and all this shit as well.
00:41:41.164 --> 00:41:55.023
But I think, gosh, if so many of the science things like, we'll call it woo woo, but it's not woo woo, but the zodiac and the watching the stars and the, this, I don't know,
00:41:55.083 --> 00:41:56.344
the natural world,
00:41:56.614 --> 00:42:00.903
the sagey people, the, the folklore.
00:42:00.903 --> 00:42:04.324
I don't know, whatever I'm trying to make it.
00:42:04.744 --> 00:42:05.134
Fine.
00:42:05.733 --> 00:42:06.393
Those people.
00:42:07.384 --> 00:42:16.233
Those people, if you're just trying to match it, it, and that's kind of how they're doing things to regulate, number one, their bodies.
00:42:16.233 --> 00:42:19.684
Number two, how they understand what period we're in.
00:42:20.043 --> 00:42:24.213
If that makes logical sense, why do we have to man just have to go in and lock it up?
00:42:24.483 --> 00:42:24.603
Yeah.
00:42:24.603 --> 00:42:25.384
Because that's what they do.
00:42:25.384 --> 00:42:29.164
They go in and they f something up because they find what benefits them more.
00:42:29.463 --> 00:42:29.853
Yeah.
00:42:30.094 --> 00:42:30.784
Honestly,
00:42:30.784 --> 00:42:31.653
also.
00:42:32.554 --> 00:42:34.804
Can we get rid of daylight saving time, please.
00:42:34.804 --> 00:42:35.884
For the love of God.
00:42:35.884 --> 00:42:41.284
Dude, that is something I will, that like I will die on the hill of.
00:42:41.284 --> 00:42:42.063
This is bullshit.
00:42:42.094 --> 00:42:43.733
It is bullshit all the time.
00:42:43.733 --> 00:42:47.134
And so the politician that finally makes that happen has my vote.
00:42:47.313 --> 00:42:48.934
I thought it's been voted for
00:42:48.934 --> 00:42:49.208
so many, many times.
00:42:49.208 --> 00:42:51.704
Oh, it's been proposed so many times and they just like many,
00:42:51.704 --> 00:42:53.409
and it vote, it wins like it passes.
00:42:54.438 --> 00:43:09.588
But, uh, when I lived in Arizona and we didn't have daylight saving time, it was great except that I had one parent in one time zone and one parent in another time zone, and I had to figure out which time zone I was, which parent I was aligned with for half of the year that it sucks, but it's doable.
00:43:09.619 --> 00:43:10.699
Can we get done with that?
00:43:10.699 --> 00:43:19.998
So the politicians listening, if you my vote abolish daylight saving time, abolish the IRS.
00:43:21.753 --> 00:43:22.384
There you go.
00:43:22.833 --> 00:43:23.193
Done.
00:43:23.463 --> 00:43:25.804
Like that's how to make everybody's lives better.
00:43:25.923 --> 00:43:26.793
Immediately
00:43:26.914 --> 00:43:27.273
done.
00:43:28.114 --> 00:43:29.583
And then we can work on the calendar.
00:43:30.693 --> 00:43:35.554
I mean, I think daylight savings and the calendar can all go into one.
00:43:36.603 --> 00:43:36.784
Yeah.
00:43:39.289 --> 00:43:39.628
Sorry.
00:43:41.708 --> 00:43:41.929
Yes.
00:43:43.047 --> 00:43:45.753
But if you want just baby steps, daylight saving time,
00:43:45.784 --> 00:43:46.353
daylight savings,
00:43:46.384 --> 00:43:47.074
just take it out.
00:43:48.123 --> 00:43:48.273
Yeah.
00:43:48.273 --> 00:43:48.693
I don't like it.
00:43:50.733 --> 00:43:50.914
Ugh.
00:43:51.423 --> 00:43:52.684
And it doesn't do anything.
00:43:52.684 --> 00:43:55.474
You go forward, you go back, you end up at the same stupid time.
00:43:55.474 --> 00:43:57.364
It's still ultra dark in the morning.
00:43:57.364 --> 00:44:05.164
In the winter obnoxiously and then, or coming into spring and then dark in the, you know, coming dark into the winter and it just, whatever.
00:44:05.373 --> 00:44:08.673
I mean, I feel like that's how nature should be, but it's still really annoying.
00:44:09.034 --> 00:44:11.434
The only time I liked daylight saving time.
00:44:11.798 --> 00:44:17.228
Is when, or the only time it benefited me, I'm gonna say, is when I was working graveyard shift at hotels.
00:44:17.289 --> 00:44:17.559
Mm.
00:44:17.798 --> 00:44:24.579
And you, I would purposely schedule myself for that shift because then I got an extra hour of money.
00:44:25.418 --> 00:44:25.688
Oh.
00:44:26.289 --> 00:44:26.798
But that's it.
00:44:28.509 --> 00:44:29.259
That's the only way.
00:44:29.409 --> 00:44:29.708
Yeah.
00:44:30.728 --> 00:44:31.389
We're over it.
00:44:31.568 --> 00:44:31.809
Yep.
00:44:35.498 --> 00:44:35.918
Okay.
00:44:36.969 --> 00:44:37.568
That was a lot.
00:44:37.898 --> 00:44:37.989
Yep.
00:44:37.989 --> 00:44:38.588
Thanks for that.
00:44:38.768 --> 00:44:39.039
Yep.
00:44:39.219 --> 00:44:40.568
Thanks for hanging in with me.
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:41.199
Yeah.
00:44:41.378 --> 00:44:52.809
And have a good day to everyone, except everyone who blames their really shitty poor behavior on the moon or their astrological zo, their zodiac sound,
00:44:52.809 --> 00:44:54.159
or mercury in the microwave.
00:44:54.159 --> 00:44:54.338
Yeah.
00:44:55.628 --> 00:44:56.228
Or that.
00:44:56.259 --> 00:44:56.528
Yeah.
00:44:56.739 --> 00:44:57.699
Yes, everyone but you.
00:44:57.818 --> 00:44:58.059
Yep.
00:44:58.449 --> 00:44:59.048
Bye.
00:44:59.048 --> 00:44:59.523
Bye.
