You're much prettier than Rick.  I'm Stephanie. She is Yeah, yeah, and you false Instagram Twitter Juicy content for if you'd like to have pictures Of not have them. You can look at them can't have them Of our babies Leland Killian and Olive. We have a toddler and two newborn Eight months old Not eight months yet almost eight months, but I haven't been on this channel. Yeah, I was pregnant Have you not yeah, it's been a minute. I think we watched Dar Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That might have been the last time you were on, huh? I Don't know. We did that show too. Yeah. Anyways today. We got a new Salman Khan Teaser and I don't know if it has subs, but I think it's a big-action teaser So I don't know if there's a lot of dialogue in it and it's a salmon con film So I don't know if the dialogue even matters but it's called Cassica by Cassica John By I'm guessing is salmon con that is his moniker is by It's as Pooja. Hey, hey, hey today. I think it's her name and salmon con and Can you say that name? Venkatesh and Obviously by the time you're seeing this I will be watching Pathan. Unfortunately Stephanie who loves Shah Rukh Khan We do not have a baby Yeah, or a relative nearby so she could have come and we wanted it We were hoping that we'd have someone but unfortunately I'll be watching this Shah Rukh Khan movie without her But this will be playing I believe before it so he had to get to it and Rick was very busy today He's going out of town for a few days after Pathan And so he wasn't able to be here for this, but obviously it's just a teaser so I'm sure he'll be for the trailer But anyways without further ado, let's just get into it you've seen one the Pakistani girl one yes, and I've seen Yeah, there's it was he now when it was in it was cool to show died that he was in right? Yeah, basketball Hey, dude That's right Look at those luscious locks Yeah, he should have stuck with the long hair I thought he was going for like the Pathan Are they like it's everybody just Growing their hair long and I don't think this has anything to do with his tiger films Which is I think part of the wire of spy universe, which is I'm pretty sure part of Pathan With a Rithik, I think I don't know if I think salmon actually has a cameo in Pathan I'll see obviously tonight, but I think they're all going to be connected in like the next movie So they'll because he has a spy film. I think it's called tiger Something so have they all had an origin movie? Yeah, they'll all be together Yeah, because obviously Pathan and Shah Rukh Khan war was Rithik right? I think tiger that was the first one and that was a little while ago That was their first spy universe and so I think Paul the next one is gonna be like the Avengers all them together Something like that. I'd imagine we'll see we'll see obviously but with spies But with spies and I haven't seen the tiger universe. I thought the actual it's really cool It looks pretty the actual violent I'm not used to all that I know I don't know because obviously we've seen very few salmon con films one We really enjoyed and that was probably his most grounded acting performance in the Baji Raijaan or whatever that film was called up a little Pakistani girl. Yeah, that was good. That was good He was really good in that and then Cooch-cooch at the high I mean you can't really that was like in the 90s. Yeah, it was funny And then the bong which Rick and I did a watch along that we did not enjoy debong And so I don't I don't really know what to expect. I know his fans Love him and he always has a film out on Eid Yeah, that's cuz like all the three cons usually. I don't know if it's still anymore I know he usually always has an Eid film Which one gets Christmas usually a mirror, okay? Yeah, usually a mirror But and cuz Losing Chata was supposed to come out on a Christmas But then they moved it because of COVID and all that. Yeah, but I think it originally was supposed to come out on Christmas and then the other one Diwali, I don't know if it's Akshay Or if it's Shabruk or if he's well because he's Muslim as well. So you think his was Eid as well, but I I Have no clue. I actually I thought I quite enjoyed the teaser. I thought it was a looked kind of fun The end was a little bit of a cheesy action like the bring it on bring it Matrix When The first one. Yeah, so when he's training him that's a motion he does.  I was like, I don't remember him. No saying that Bring it on No, he's still asleep. Sorry, we're watching all of our kids are napping right now and so you're seeing If you hear you got a multitask when you're a parent, okay? But actually I thought it looked kind of fun It's quite surprised. You never know what you're gonna get with a salmon con Teaser and all that kind of stuff.  Yeah, I wish you were with me. I do. Anyways, uh, you smell much better than Rick as well So once again, not a high bar For smell. Yeah, he stinks. Anyways, let us know what you thought about the teaser Which will be our next salmon con film that we should watch. Please let us know down below


What's good, Joshua boros back again with another video so it's your boys birthday month And I decided to give myself a birthday gift an early birthday gift this year So I decided to change up my recording slash gaming room at the crib I wanted to add some things get some new things and replace some things So I definitely want to show you guys that and some of you guys have peeped it Just recently and how my setup is changed and you can kind of see certain things some of you guys have asked me Yo, what's up with the new PC? Can we get a you know PC spec? Can we get the PC tour? You know the gaming room tour? Let us know what's going on So this video is for you guys man. It's my birthday month So I wanted to treat myself Also, I want to make sure that I upgraded the equipment that I already needed or already have and try to make sure that My equipment is that top tier for you guys So that way, you know when I put out videos and and content that everything will look good like aesthetically lies and You know everything will be smooth when it comes to just bring y'all the best content possible So let's check out the new and improved gaming slash recording room. Well Here is the new gaming Setup that I have slash recording setup I'm gonna go through and let you guys know, you know, what each thing is like where you can possibly get in I'm gonna probably put it in the description down below For those who are interested in getting some of these things for themselves Whether they're gonna start streaming doing YouTube or just want to have it just to gain possibly I'm gonna try to link down everything in the description for you guys So that way you guys can get in part on the action too So let's start with my monitor. This right here is a 24 inch Samsung gaming Odyssey monitor CRG 5 series and I've been using this monitor action for actually for about a year now. I Recently decided to use this privately as my editing monitor But beforehand when I was playing on the Xbox series X, this is the monitor that I got with it It has a refresh rate of 144 Hertz. The quality is 1920 by 1080 so it's standard quality, but it's the fresh rate That's kind of what sells this monitor and it's not too expensive.  I want to say like around 200 250 dollars in that price range. I got it from Best Buy And it worked perfectly at the time for me came in and just you know streaming off of like watching You know the wrestling stuff or whatnot So it was perfect for the gaming stuff, but I knew I wanted to get a better monitor But I didn't want to get rid of it So this is part of my editing monitor and it's connected to my MacBook I wanted a bigger screen or whatnot So I have it connected to my MacBook so that way I can edit, you know, a little You know, I can see things a little bit more bigger on this screen I use this adapter called the J5 create as a whole bunch of different ports USB ports ACMI ports or whatnot and basically it's connected to my MacBook or whatnot And that way I'm able to just pretty much whatever is on here whatever is displayed on here I can see on here and it just makes it easier on my eyes to edit as well This is also my MacBook Pro. I've had this since last year as well I actually got these the monitor and the pro roughly around the same time I needed something to you know edit edit the videos on because my old HP It's just it's been having so many issues because it's old so I needed something new So I've been had this for a while and it's been Definitely helpful in just the editing process or what not also got this from Best Buy So it was it this was definitely kind of pricey. I think this was roughly Around I want to say $2,000 for this MacBook Pro definitely pricey But it was worth it in the end because I needed something that could edit the videos and amount of videos we were editing or still editing on and My other laptop was just it was just running slow was having a hard time editing the video So this is what I edit on. This is the screen I use now and Yeah, man, this is how I get my work done right here is my sure Mike And I love this microphone shout out to dub dub got me this microphone as a Christmas gift I want to say two years ago. I want to say it's been about two years ago He got me this as a Christmas gift and I've love this might get it's definitely kind of a little fuzzy or what not Cuz I usually take this microphone with me To the studio so I may need to invest in getting another one where I can have one at the office We're at the studio and one for here so I want to keep taking it back and forth But I love this microphone now this microphone is it's roughly $400 but it is a microphone that's gonna last you for a very long time and It's also a microphone that it sounds really good People record music like musical artists record using sure microphones So this is definitely worth the money if you want to get you one definitely you can find them on Amazon Really can find them any well not anywhere, but like maybe a guitar center or a musical store These are worth worth the price man Also, I use if you can see this this is a cloud lifter So any time you're using that microphone with this particular microphone You need a cloud lifter to potentially amplify the sound So you definitely if you do get this get you a cloud lifter as well You're probably gonna need it that cloud lifters roughly an extra I'm gonna say this was like extra $30 at a guitar center So relatively not it that expensive, but it's it's worth having Also have this arm stand. I just got this before I was using a table stand, but now I got me a Arm stand more stable one got this from guitar center Spent about 60 bucks on it But it's perfect because I can fully extend it and when I'm recording it's not in a way and when I'm done recording I can just kind of push it back into place and it's it's perfect for everything I need Also have this in audio air mixer I was with a imports for like if you're trying to hook up a guitar or whatnot You can also put it in there as well, but um This was I want to say roughly a hundred and fifty dollars at guitar center But I have it for my microphone obviously and it's it's straightforward. I plug it in It has a USB C port on the back and I plug into my PC and it's straightforward You know it could you know collects the sound and it just it works the way I need it to work, man So that's my audio setup with the microphone cloud lifter and the mixer All right, right here is my logitech webcam C9 22 pro HD stream webcam. I got this for maybe a hundred dollars. You can find this relatively Not that expensive and a lot of places this by Microcenter or you know, you can even find this at Walmart It's a it streams at 1080p or captures at 1080p. It's a decent webcam. This is the webcam You've seen me in pretty much all my recent lives Anything that I've done a large thing reaction to I've used this webcam I also use this webcam the same one at this at the studio when we live stream on twitch So this is the webcam I use once again. It's like a hundred dollars. It's not that expensive But it's good for the price that you're paying and it records at 1080p So, you know, if you ever get into streaming definitely get the the logitech C9 22 pro It's worth your money. I also have a key like this is the light I've been using since I've been recording for quite some time Actually, I got this Long time ago actually I got this one. I was still staying with my grandmother So this was like around 2020. This is when I got this key light at the time. It was like I want to say It was close to like two hundred dollars, but I think it's much cheaper now still God Okay, like I think you can get it at best five for like 130. It's perfect And I haven't set up where there's an app that you can download where like a patrol center out for basically I can control the brightness and The tint of the light whether how you know, if it's a warm shade or a more of a bluer shade Or more pure white shade of light coming through it. I can control that through my phone I can also control that through the control center on my computer as well So I like being able to control the light without actually touching it or messing with it So I think that is pretty cool as well So definitely you need you a nice key light. You don't need anything too harsh Overbearing if you're trying to do some recordings, this is perfect for you know Just doing some streaming or just doing some YouTube videos So right here is the camera that I use to record all my videos for the past few years Is the Canon power shot G7x mark 2 I got this camera for like I want to say 500 close to like $500 maybe I think A few years ago. I actually use some of my stimulus money to get this camera. I got it from the Canon website And uh, yeah, man, I've been using this camera for for for some years now But I think it's time for me to upgrade it So I probably will invest and get another camera relatively soon, but quality is good shows that you know shoots at 1920 by 1080 I don't think it has 4k capabilities on this one, but it gets the job done It's a perfect camera for vlogging as well If you have one of my handheld tripods, this is the perfect vlogging camera And you got a regular tripod stand and I got this from Bestbot. It's like $30. Wouldn't too expensive Yes, I know the cable management is horrible, but hey, I'm gonna try to figure that out I also have this gaming chair right here. I don't even know what the brand is on this. I got this Many years ago. Uh, I want to say I got this. Uh, once again when I was still staying with my grandmother at the time Um, so I got this from Micro Center. I think it was on sale for like 200 Like it was like $250. Maybe I don't know what brand this is But it's it's it's done be justice, you know what I'm saying to save my back from plenty of painful nights Um, so yeah, I don't even think they still have this at Micro Center I'll try to find for you guys and link it if you guys want to pick it up But yep, this is my gaming chair that I've had for many many years now. So I finally Decided to go wireless with some headphones and I decided to go with the astro A50s man, it comes with the charging deck And I think this is the astro a 50s that go for the xbox in pc only and I like this Now the setup is kind of weird Astro needs to work on their setups when it comes to like how to update the firmware I had to find a youtube video on how to update the firmware. It's it's really weird Astro needs to do better with that, but I've always like astro headsets I've had the astro a 40s at one point with the mix amp for a very very long time until they just Went out on me. I think one of the cables or whatnot was messed up. And then I recently got some astro I want to say a 10s Um, the relatively cheaper ones, but they're still good quality. I got those and I've been using those I even have a period at the at the studio But these a 50s I definitely wanted these because of the wireless Capabilities and the fact I can just put it on a dock comes with a charging station And I love the you know, I can mess around with the ecu settings on the application as well And this is I just like the comfort of the headphones Great quality granted at these were kind of pricey on the pricey side I want to say I spend about a good It was like almost $300 for these But at the same time I love the wirelessness of it like me not I have to worry about wires And it just cooks up to my computer very easily don't have any issues with it And uh, if you're looking to have some good gaming headsets These are the ones to go with so definitely check them out. Uh, and if you don't want to spend that much money You can get the That uh, the a40s with the mix amp. I think that's still roughly around 150 or whatnot Or I think maybe $200 and then you can get the a10s Um, which are the wired in ones much cheaper, but they still good quality and I believe those are like 60 dollars So it's really just up to your discretion on how much you willing to pay right here I have a power a fusion pro controller reason why it's called a pro controller because It has paddles on the back now. I took off the other three paddles because I don't really need them I use this paddle as my a button or whatnot and I like it man I don't feel like paying as much for the traditional xbox pro controller Uh, I believe that one's like still like 180 dollars And I think this is just as good in my opinion. I haven't had any real issues with it I haven't hooked up to my pc. So whenever I'm playing the game Of call of duty or whatever Um, I just be you know using my controller But eventually I will get into the mouse and keyboard world and start trying to mess around with that See if I can get good with that. Um, I also like the fact that with this You can change the faceplate and you know, you can mess around with Uh these right here. You can change these out You can change out the thumb sticks as well if you want a different style thumb stick it comes with Uh different buttons thumb sticks and uh not in the plate itself. I actually have another uh A power a pro controller But that one I had had for like maybe two years Maybe a year and a half and I started to get some uh Stick uh stick drift. So I ended up getting me a new one And that's because I was playing a lot of a lot of war zone a lot of call of duty So I was there on that heavy and you know after a while just controllers naturally will get stick drift So but this one right here has been holding me down for a bit And I just changed to make uh the faceplate from the other one to this one and uh, yeah, man I'm definitely rocking with it. Um, it's I want to say it's like 80 dollars. It's 80 It's like 80 85 dollars. I got it from best buy So if you want to have you a nice decent controller or you can Control the the panels on the back Uh, this is this is the goal where you don't want to have to break the bank It also has trigger stops as well So that way, you know when you press into triggers, they don't go all the go all the way in It's perfect for as uh fps games. So yeah, man It's literally everything you would need In like a pro controller without paying The the ridiculous price point that xbox be charging or all these other places they charge Uh for a pro controller with programmable buttons. So I rocks with it. I also got this little controller stand got this from amazon I just found this on amazon. I'll try to link it in the description Down below. Uh, it comes with a two pack or whatnot And it's perfect. You just stick it on here and it stays there hosting controller safe and and firm and uh Can't go wrong with that now for my keyboard. I got the razor huntsman v2 Now this one was a little bit on the pricey side. Um, this cost me. I wanted to say Um, oh 180 dollars was like 189 dollars or something like that, but I love it I love the responsiveness of the keys and I love the rgb light setup Um razor has an app where as soon as you plug it in it's connected to it Uh to the app and you can just kind of change up how you want your keys To move so if I press a certain key or whatnot, I can have it set up where it's like reactive So make a wave of color for each key I press but right now I have it just on this Uh spectrum mode spectrum wave mode and I love it man and it comes with the the little armrest pad It's actually detachable. It's it's like a little magnet right here So all you got to do is just slide into place and that's it. So I love this keyboard It looks nice.  I'm not going to be one of those people that rage at a game and break this keyboard I'm I'm just not doing that. I also got the razor bass of this x hyper speed mouse I have this and I love the responsiveness on here and also you can set it up On the razor app as well to you know, adjust its speed to your liking So and you know switch up the buttons. There's little side buttons right here on the side that you can use to click on as well So I like uh, I have it set on the uh, usb mode It also has a bluetooth mode, but I have it hooked up usb in a usb port But uh, yeah, man. Love this. Love this mouse. It is perfect for you know, just whatever I needed for You know, if I want to start using the mouse and keyboard I definitely can do that with this mouse right here. This mouse pad right here is my still series qck prism cloth Love it. It's not too big. I didn't need a big one. It's a decent size and it has the rgb lighting I kind of wanted to go with the rgb lighting setup With the keyboard and the mouse pad And it comes you can download the app and you can customize the lighting settings or however you want it to be As well on here. So I like the customization on here and it was like 30 dollars It went to it too expensive So if you want you to just a nice looking mouse pad, it's not too big and that you can customize on your computer Definitely go with the qck prism cloth. This is the aoc gaming cq 27 g3s and I love this monitor man. Love it. Love it. Love it. Uh, it has 165 hertz One millisecond response time the resolution is 25 60 by 1440 2k resolution and I love it I love it. It's it's something that I definitely was looking for Coming from this one Where this is at 1920 by 1080 to this is a nice substantial upgrade I also have a 2k monitor at the studio granted that monitor has 240 hertz and this one's at 165 but nevertheless, I love this. I got this from micro center. It was on sale I think this was like 280 this monitor. This is a 27 inch Gaming monitor and it's perfect for what I needed for it's curved as well and Definitely, I just like the quality on it the game looks good on it as well and I'm enjoying it so far So this is definitely worth the investment Finally the main event Which I've all been waiting for My new PC setup boy. I love this right here, man Ah, man. I love this pc brother. This shit looks so beautiful Let me go ahead and give you the specs because I know this is what y'all been asking Is running the amd rise in 7 5700 g 3.8 gigahertz processor NVIDIA g-force rtx 30 60 ti 8 gigabytes of g d dr 6 32 gigabytes d dr 4 3200 ram 1 terabyte of solid state drive Microsoft knows 11 pro and uh, yeah, man This is my baby. This is this. I love this, bro. I love I love the look of it. It was already pre-built like this. So, um, if anything I could have probably got a different casing But it was already pre-built like this and uh, this is the the cooling unit or whatnot I like the fact that it does come with an app Um, and I was able to hook up the app to the razor app And now I was able to use the same type of settings that I have on my keyboard On the cooling system or whatnot with the rgb light setup So, uh, I like that feature that it came with but bro, this this is this is nice It even has the rgb light up on a g-force rtx Graphic chart now the one I have at the studio. That's running a 30 70 ti um, it doesn't have the The rgb light up on the graphic chart on now when now into a little bit more stronger But uh for the pricing of this this was actually on sale at microcenter. I paid, uh, it was like 1500 it was like fit $1,599. So roughly around $1,600. Um, the one that I got the 30 70 ti When I got it earlier this year the one at the studio, I paid a little bit more for that one. I paid roughly it was like Roughly 1900 just for that one just for the pc itself so, um Yeah, I decided to get something that's not as strong as the one I have at the studio But it's also not breaking the bank and this one was on sale So I decided to get it, but I love it bro. Love this pc and I'm gonna be doing a lot of gaming on here Um, I'm gonna be streaming on here as well Of some doing the live stream reactions on the new pc. So be on the lookout for that Um, man. Yeah, man. This is this is the setup right here and this is it This is the new gaming slash reporting setup. I hope you guys enjoyed the tour, man This has been a long time coming man. Like I've really been You know just very thankful for you guys showing me love and and being a part of this journey Like I remember me recording with a lamp from walmart and my iphone And a microphone that we had been using that we got from I believe we got from amazon to now where I'm at You know right now, you know recording with a short mic have two moats, you know two curved monitors Like he like webcam a nice decent uh decently powerful pc um Like I'm just very thankful for it.

Thank you all for all the love and support Now I'm about to go and try to edit this video for you guys So you guys can enjoy my new gaming slash recording setup. I love you guys appreciate y'all kicking with me See y'all next one. Peace


Let me share a little bit about my own work and how I'm using evolution right now. There is a virus which is known to be present in a large percentage of prostate cancer cells called XMRV. It's not known yet if it has a positive role, but its presence in a high percentage of prostate tumor biopsies is an exciting discovery and has the potential for very early diagnostics and possibly even a highly effective treatment for the millions of men like my father who have prostate cancer. Now the virus has been sequenced and studied, but the best information we have about it, we have gained from a study of its closest relative, a mouse endogenous retrovirus I will simply call MIRV. A study of MIRV has shown us where the key genes are located in XMRV and the diagnostic kits for XMRV are simply designed to detect the MIRV, which acts as a positive control. Without the conceptual framework of common descent, we would have no basis for such assumptions. I can safely say I use evolution on a daily basis to develop diagnostics and therapeutics. So has comparative genomics and macroevolution produced some useful innovations? Absolutely, both directly in the form of tests and drugs and indirectly by shining light on difficult problems of genomics. Section 7, Understanding the Past Evolution also gives us a contextual basis for our place in the natural history of this planet. It gives us the power to develop models about the events of the distant past. Reading genetic phylogenies is a bit like reconstructing a family history by looking at a group of distant cousins and arriving at likely conclusions about their common ancestor. This may be the most esoteric of the applications, but I think that evolution tells us a great deal about the process and purpose of life. It explains some of the behaviors that we observe. It explains, for example, why we find baby animals so adorable, why we smile, why we are a mostly monogamous species, and it does so in a way that is more satisfying than religious creation mythologies because the evidence is empirical and objective. Macroevolutionary genetics are also an important line of evidence to add to the whole picture of the distant past. Matching it up with similar information from biogeography, geology, ice cores, fossil evidence, and stratigraphy give us additional confirmation or reveals interesting puzzles to be solved. Understanding the cataclysmic events that may have happened in the past, such as the extinction of the dinosaurs, makes us more aware of the risks we face now, such as meteor impacts, climate changes, and pandemic disease. We fully understand that survival on this planet is a fragile thing, and we have the perspective to understand that almost all of the living things that came before us are now extinct. Section 8, Beyond Biology In addition to helping us understand living things, evolution has also proven to be a productive framework outside of the study of biology. Genetic algorithms are used to design cars, industrial controls, they are indispensable to such projects as space exploration and national defense. Genetic algorithms control the heaters on the space shuttle, they help mathematicians solve complex problems, they even get used in search engines and database structures. Tools developed for evolution of biological systems have also proven useful in the study of other evolving things. The evolution of language, for example, can be placed on filograms, divergence rates can be calculated, and simulations based on biological evolution have been quite productive in the evolution of language and cultural traditions. For example, we can learn about the cultures of an ancient people by understanding which words they adopted from neighboring groups, which words they invented, and which they stopped using. All this evidence helps us to build an understanding of human history and linguistics. Directed evolution is a process of chemical and biological selection to optimize the function of a bioengineered system more quickly than manual design optimization. Suppose we have a large library of chemicals that we are screening for potential to bind to immune cells and turn off a particular pathway. This is called a compound library screen, and for this case the potential might be to stop the progression of multiple sclerosis. Now suppose we have a few million compounds to look at. The brute force approach would be to go through each of them one by one and see if they have any effect. This would take hundreds of millions of dollars and several years worth of work for a large research team. But if we instead took 1,000 root molecules and screened them, then take the best 10 and create sublibraries of new chemicals from those parents and screen the children compounds, each time taking the most successful and using them to create further diversifications, we will find our optimal drug design in a much shorter time and for less cost. The same process can be used for the production of proteins like antibodies or vaccines, but the diversification process is the introduction of mutation or recombination by chemical or enzymatic means. This process is how most commercial antibodies are developed today. It turns out the natural process of genetic evolution is faster and easier than the scientist as intelligent designer when it comes to drugs and bioengineered proteins. Section 9, Conclusion. Theodore Dubzansky is well known for the quote, nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution. Dubzansky was a Ukrainian biologist who, in 1937, wrote one of the seminal works of the modern evolutionary synthesis, genetics and the origin of species. He studied at Columbia with T. H. Morgan, the scientist whose name is now used as a measure of recombination distances, usually as measured in S. Morgan's. Dubzansky was a critic of anti evolutionists, as we might expect as one of evolution's greatest champions, but he was also a devout member of the Eastern Orthodox Christian Church. He believed in a God that was more than a deceptive tinkerer, one that was compatible with observed evidence. I'm going to include a link to the original 1973 essay in the sidebar, but I want to briefly introduce one of his students, Francisco Ayala, a national medal of science-winning scientist who uses evolution to study tropical diseases that affect more than 20 million people a year. Francisco is a former Dominican priest and devout Catholic. He is also one of the most prolific and well-respected authors of the modern age in the field of evolutionary biology, with 950 publications and 30 books. His debate with William Lane Craig is available here on YouTube and worth watching. What I'm trying to say here is that this is not and never has been between Christian faith and evolution. It is between science and anti-science. The body of scientific knowledge of the last two centuries versus the radical views of a handful of scriptural fundamentalists. There is no way to know for sure what effect teaching creationism in our schools would have, but we can certainly look to the more fundamentalist Islamic countries as an analogy. Are they better off under a theocratic educational system or worse? Are we willing to trade off all the benefits I've covered in this video? Beyond that, are we willing to set a precedent for future scientists that politics and ideology trump evidence and investigation? I'd like to end with a quote from Dr. Ayala, a man of faith and science. American children are consistently falling behind those of other nations in their knowledge and understanding of science. We will not be able to close this gap if we substitute ideology for fact in our science classrooms. Thanks for watching.


Are you someone who easily gets tired and doesn't feel like doing anything? Do you label this kind of behavior as mere laziness and nothing more? There's actually a lot of overlap between laziness and burnout that can make it difficult to differentiate between the two. Burnout is a negative state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by excessive stress and inability to cope with it. And as of 2010, a survey reported that approximately 75% of adults in the United States alone have experienced symptoms of burnout, with over 40% of cases being more severe. Now, more than ever, it's become imperative to educate and better understand the nature of burnout. So with that said, here are six telltale signs that what you're experiencing right now isn't actually laziness, but burnout. Number one, you feel disconnected from everything. Are you going through the motions of every day as if on autopilot? Is there a persistent feeling of being detached from your own self? If you're suffering from burnout, one of the things you might be experiencing, but don't quite realize or understand is depersonalization. People experiencing depersonalization, most commonly though struggling with trauma, report feeling a strange sort of emotional numbness or emptiness, as if they were watching life from outside of themselves. They don't feel like themselves anymore. They don't feel engaged by anything, and they constantly struggle with the overwhelming sense of helplessness and inability to take back control of their lives. Number two, you used to be motivated. Laziness is a character trait, and character traits tend to remain stable over time.  But if you used to be self-motivated and high achieving, often excelling in certain areas, and have only recently become exhausted, apathetic, and unmotivated, then it's more likely that you're suffering from burnout and not laziness like most people would think. Number three, you used to be passionate. A clear difference between someone who's burnt out and someone who's lazy is that the former used to have things they were passionate about, but may now be struggling to find interest or enjoyment in anymore. Whether it's a talent, a sport, or just your academic or professional performance in general, burnout can make it hard for you to do the things you once loved or felt passionate about. You might even come to hate or resent it because of how much you overworked yourself and pushed yourself to the brink because of it. Ouch. Number four, you've become moody and irritable. Do you suddenly find yourself snappy and easily irritated? Do you often feel emotionally out of control nowadays and don't know why? Moodiness and irritability are common, but often overlooked signs of burnout. So if you start to have trouble controlling your emotions, especially when it never used to be a problem for you, this might be the reason why. Lazy people, on the other hand, are a stark contrast to this because they're often very relaxed, laid back, placid, and unaffected by things. Number five, you've neglected your self-care. One of the most distressing warning signs that someone may be emotionally and physically burnt out is if you start neglecting your self-care and socially withdraw from others. There are concerning changes in your eating and or sleeping patterns.  The difference between being burnt out and laziness are starkly in the fact that you weren't always this way. And number six, these changes happened gradually. Finally, but perhaps most importantly, something you should know about burnout is that it develops in stages. So all the points mentioned before, losing interest and motivation, especially in things we used to love, feeling detached from yourself and disconnected from everything around you, socially withdrawing and neglecting your self-care won't just happen overnight. Studies show that there are actually five major stages of burnout, each with increasing degrees of severity. The honeymoon phase, the onset of stress, chronic stress, burnout, and habitual burnout. Many people begin to experience symptoms as early as the second phase. When there is still a moderate amount of stress, but optimism, interest, motivation, and performance may already start declining.  Spotting the signs of burnout early makes it all the more easier for you to get help and recover from it. That's why it's so important to raise awareness about burnout instead of simply dismissing it as laziness, like most people tend to do.
