What's up guys, contrary to popular belief, i in fact have not died. I did not get hit by a subway train uh, nor have i died from eating subway, at least not yet you guys are stuck with me for a little while longer not too long ago. I flew out to new york, and i met up with charles payne and uh spoke with fox business about the ape community about amc about gamestop, about all the things that we're fighting for and talking about, and i think what i want to bring to you guys Today is is uh observations over opportunities. I want to be able to reflect on a lot of stimulation right, there's a lot of things that have happened over the last three days, ups and downs and crazy stuff that i kind of want to reflect on.

So i'm going to storytell a little bit. This isn't for you, uh, feel free to click off, but i feel like there's value that it added to my life and you do with it which you'd like so the first day i rolled in you know it was monday and i was sitting there uh rolling Up in my in my plane and i landed, it was pretty early in the day, nine or ten or so, and i really spent the most of the day, just kind of roaming around new york city and my hotel. They wouldn't let me in until i think it was about three o'clock eastern uh, so i just kind of walked around right. I checked out the city and the best way that i could put it is just like over stimulation for for a guy like myself, who people think is just coked up all the time, i'm an extrovert.

I love that stuff. I love being surrounded by people like just the thought of uh. You know hundreds of thousands of people walking around with their own individual lives their own individual stories. Problems, pains successes, uh, families, right it's interesting to kind of conceptualize and try and get an idea of.

What's happening in the world around you and i was enjoying it, i i really liked it. That's that's an environment that i i thoroughly enjoyed and my favorite part of that monday, when i landed, was getting to meet people right. I'm a people guy i like stories. I like hearing where people come from and there was one individual in particular that stuck out to me.

His name was kelly and uh kelly. He met up with me at the red stairs by uh by times square. I don't know what the they're they're called. I said it was behind a green skyscraper.

It was like not actually green, but that's beside the point. Nonetheless, he was telling me about where he came from and he said that he came from uh a background of uh. I'm not gon na get into the nitty gritty details and i'm not gon na expose his name by any means, but uh some addiction problems right. He he actually had just run the new york city marathon, and it came up from that to where he is now and in the same way, i've talked to people who maybe were up and then they've come down and they're struggling, and they just wanted to talk About some of their life problems, and it made me really think a lot going into tuesday about uh all the different situations.
People are in right all the pains they're dealing with all the struggles, all their successes and ultimately, the most important thing, which is the people right: the people first, it's great to be able to connect faces to uh to names on twitter or names on youtube to Handles to people on discord whatever it is, it was just a really humanizing moment to be able to uh connect with people and honestly uh just shoot the i'm really a pretty easygoing guy. So if you're, seeing me in public uh feel free to talk, it's it's pretty smooth sailing, but tuesday was the real day of reflection. That was when i was actually at fox. I did get to meet matt.

That dude is thick. He is a. He is a damn damn boy. This is a thick boy.

That's matt, to a t. You got some he's got some weapons on him. Man holy, oh it's a little, but nonetheless, where the real reflection was for me is. When i got into the studio it's uh.

It's a pretty tall building, it's got a lot of floors. I don't know how many exactly, but i i guess, you're about 30 or 40 floors up and you're, looking out from the top of that building and kind of looking over new york city. And you see all the people down there living their own lives, and i kind of came to this realization that you know not to group people into two classic groups, because life is much more complex than that. But you really have sort of a diverse uh community.

Within new york, you've got people that are just living their everyday lives and the cost of living. There is pretty high. It's a struggle right, it's not an easy life to get by with, unless you have the fortune or you work your way up the ladder to get to a position like those people are in, for example, right where they're, where they're doing very well for themselves and What i realized is fox business and that sort of job that building is the same building. This is actually something i had a conversation with a friend about it's the same building that the layman, brothers would use to try and pitch to people that everything was okay before the housing market crashed.

It's the same building that that people will use to try and shove stocks down your throat that end up tanking going to going to nothing. I mean it's, it's obviously symbolic, there's other news sources in mainstream media, that kind of contribute to things. But what that made me realize is that it's a tool and the way that that tool is utilized can either be for good or it can be for bad. It can be to help people or to steal from people you know and being there and being able to feel the energy and the passion sort of i wouldn't say reignited, but it invigorated right, really brought to the surface was eye-opening.

For me, it really made me reflect a lot on the things that i've done over the last uh six months as a person trying to help with the community and and bring good to people in the way that i think i can and what. I really would like to see different and where i think a lot of problem lies is where mainstream media and where some of these big alphas, so to speak right within uh, the financial sector and honestly, just the united states and the world right. This is the same thing across the board. A lot of things, uh is how that tools utilize right, the stuff they choose to push down your throats and uh.
I i really do believe that there's change that can be had there and a probably probably a good way to put this. I'm not intelligent enough to know this word up until literally a couple days ago, i was brought up in a conversation with my buddy, but zeitgeist right that that's something that popped up, uh really promising. For me, it's the idea of you believe in uh, whatever sort of culture and values are presented to you in any given time period so like the culture and values of people in the 70s is far different than it is in the 80s, the 90s, the 2000s. The 10s, the 20s et cetera, et cetera, et cetera things change and they shift and in that shift of the zeitgeist so to speak, you can find growth for the positive or for the worse and you kind of see that ebb and flow that pull the bear Cycles through that process, but uh, maybe it's just me being a naive kid that believes in uh.

You know good for people and things changing, but i think we can do something like that. You know, i think, there's opportunity to really shift the way that uh media is pushed and the way the messages are received and uh the power that they they hold, and i'm seeing that happen now and that's really what i've been reflecting on a lot is: how Much things have changed just in the last year i mean i look on twitter and youtube and reddit, and i just see the power that that holds that you got freaking hedge shaking and their their tidy whities in their offices on 40 40 floor skyscrapers. You know freaking out over over a freaking plane, that's flying a banner. That said ken griffin lied.

You know season, assist letters come out over that now it's insane and that is empowering stuff. It really just made me reflect on that and i'd say my my greatest takeaway from all of that is observations are really important. It's important to reflect and think back on sort of moments and experiences you have you know so that you can learn from that and keep walking forward. You know, and sometimes you walk backward.

I've had those days where you walk backward and you feel like uh what? What the hell am i doing? What did i? What did i? What did i spend my whole day on today? I don't feel like i added anything, and sometimes you feel like you took away from things, but ultimately it is the people first and i just want to see the people grow and succeed and be able to continue to grow the message which is there's corruption. There's problems, there's obvious conflicts of interest, there's guys at the top that want nothing more than for you to die, and i feel so much energy and passion around that that that's just what i want to pursue. You know after amc and gamestop have run their courses, and that is all said and done. My mission is not done i'll.
Tell you that right now i i really think uh that my purpose on earth is to sometimes at least you know, fight for problems that are laying right in front of people's faces. You know i i feel like what i can bring to the table as a person, and thankfully i've had so many people out there that helped me and the community's freaking amazing, i'm just rambling at this point but uh, i think the community, along with many others, You know that's where the power is is being able to speak out about things that have been. You know, shushed kept quiet for a really long time, and that was my takeaway from new york. It it like.

The things we talked about are huge and it's things that the apes have been screaming. You know at the top of their lungs for months almost a year, but beyond that it was just invigorating man. It was. It was a good experience to be able to truly realize what's important and it's that we just want a better life for our neighbors.

We want to take care of our neighbors and that's that's america, and i know it's beyond america, but i think the core of american values what they should be, what the little guy the core you know, american values are, is love your neighbor. Take care of yourself right do what you can to help a community and make other people's lives better. That's what that's what i think people are doing, and it's uh. It gave me some ideas and i'm gon na try and uh work towards those and see what that looks like, but i guess i just wanted to share my own reflections and if you pulled anything from that, that's cool, if not all right, you you enjoy your Day and hopefully uh you, you eat some subway.

If you don't like subway, i don't know what to tell you it's a pretty decent meal. You should try. I should try it out sometime i'll catch, you guys. All later, i'm gon na throw out uh some thoughts on earnings uh on a lot of stuff.

That's been happening within the amc community tomorrow, but i i don't know. I guess i just i wanted to talk and uh. Those are my thoughts so i'll catch. You guys on the next one, much lovely taps: peace,.

    Some walk quiet, some walk loud
    Sometimes people yell but they don't know what they're yelling about
    I've said things I didn't mean, but I'd already said them out loud
    Forgive me if you can find out how
    You could rise, you could sing
    Some keep filled up with the secrets that they think they need
    Oh, what ever will the others think?
    That you're human like the rest of us, weak
    Lord above me
    To my knees bring me
    It's a call I don't often make
    This is the rarest of pleas
    Fair enough
    Again you got the best of me
    Now let me go, let me go in peace
    I should've left
    But for you I'll stay
    There's a part of me that likes it
    When it burns that way
    I put my finger time and time through an open flame
    Going slowly so the burn reminds me
    That we might have kissed a bit too soon
    I could feel what was coming and I didn't mean to hurry you
    I just knew that time would find our fingers linked, through and through
    Forgive me I'm human too
    Lord above me
    To my knees bring me
    It's a call I don't often make
    This is the rarest of pleas
    Fair enough
    Again you got the best of me
    Now let me go, let me go in peace
    I walk the night
    As the rain turned to sleet then to ice the roads became cruel
    And left me to my vices
    So I drank, stood, stared then walked down into the street
    Singing come on course life take me
    Lord above me
    To my knees bring me
    It's a call I don't often make
    This is the rarest of pleas
    Fair enough
    Again you got the best of me
    Now let me go, let me go in peace
    No!
    Let me go, let me go in peace

    I love how the longer this goes the more Marxist Trey and other Apes sound just because of the corruption they're fighting

    Hopefully the bridge is gapped between this movement and the people who have screamed about the same corruption for centuries.
