when is the game finally over for the narcissist you clicked on this video because that is what you want to know and I'm sure that is something that many people want to know I will admit that at some point along my journey that is what I wanted to know as well just let's keep it real here let's be honest I mean especially COVID narcissist they're not very direct they don't tell you what's on their mind it's like there's this elephant in the room that no one speaks about and yet they never express it to you and the reason for that is because narcissists enjoy playing games they like to manipulate and deceive you it's what gives them that kick that two second high it gives them supply makes them feel alive and believe it or not that is actually their idea of fun to them it's fun to manipulate to deceive play silly childish games mess with your mind to leave you second guessing yourself to make you wonder what is going on as you probably know by now we don't play any games on my channel in my community with over 165 thousand subscribers and 40 million views we don't play any games here I give it to you direct even though some of you may not be ready to hear it I still tell you exactly what I think I tell you exactly what is on my mind and if there are any questions I always respond to the best of my knowledge and experience that's just how we do things on you welcome to the real world reality real life with narcissists no they don't do any of that they may lie to you and act like they are so honest direct and upfront they may act like they're on the same page as you go on the same frequency and the information it resonates with them they're gonna be act like that sometimes but the reality is that no they cannot understand you and those of you who have been involved with narcissists you should know that by now you should be aware of that by now because as I've said before my other videos they are lacking empathy they lack the ability to understand and share your feelings and experience which is it causes a lot of arguments a lot of misunderstandings because they're missing that empathy remember everything is all about them it's self-serving self-seeking self-motivated naturally of course when someone lacks empathy the other person is gonna be experiencing a lot of confusion they're gonna be wondering what is going on there's gonna be a disconnect when that empathy is missing and the other person in the narcissist and of course that is what enables them what allows them to continue playing these games with you is because they are missing that empathy because if a person has the empathy then they would recognize hold on a minute this is wrong it would click in their mind straight away as soon as they witness your confusion your pain they would recognize that it is wrong but you can recognize that when you become aware of my videos you can cut off the supply by raising your vibrational frequency because they can't meet you there they operate more in the lower forms of consciousness fear guilt shame desire these types of things they can't experience peace level joy like we can they can't even experience acceptance and that is not a low frequency but it's not exactly that high either so keep these things in minds when you are interacting with them I know that the game can be over any time that you decide that it is over because the power is in your hands the power is in your mind and you can switch that game up whenever you want to because for non-narcissistic people how you feel is a choice happiness is a choice and you can be happy any time that you like anywhere that you are doesn't matter what you have or what you don't have what you wish you had you can still be happy despite that because the happiness comes from within you generate these emotions from within unlike narcissistic people who can't do that if they want to feel good they can only feel good at your expense well by manipulating you getting one over on you and that's why they're so dedicated to the game that's why they're so dedicated to that and yeah it gives them a thrill it's their idea of fun torturing you because a lot of them are sadistic as well and yeah the game will never be over for them because this is essential to that emotional survival so the game must continue they can never disrupt the game and be open honest and direct with you they can never disrupt the game and do that because that's no fun for them and they need a way to regulate their emotions they need someone to be a fool a dormer an emotional punching bag an emotional tampon whatever you want to call it they need someone to be all of those things and of course how can you be those things if there is no game no manipulation if they're just upfront open and honest then there is no game at all so that means there's no emotional regulation and there's no deception they can't get one over on you they can't cheat lie or steal from you they can't do anything which instantly puts them at a disadvantage where they automatically have to see you a superior and they have to submit to you as that authority because as we all know they are very weak and unintelligent people especially emotionally which is the whole point that's why they have to play the games that's why they have to try and take advantage of you deceive you and do all of these things lie to you deny gaslight project blame shift I could list list a hundred different things that they do and they have to do all of these things because they are weak and stupid but it put it bluntly and rather may sound insulting I think it is pretty accurate and they prove that themselves with their actions their actions do come from weakness and a lack of intelligence it is as simple as that and that is how you should all automatically know but it is in fact you who is superior to them and that is why you should establish the authority of role in that relationship at least as much as you can until you meet someone who may be on your level and then of course you should treat them as your equal if you're in a healthy relationship or it could be a business relationship it could be family anything whatever it is of course then if it's healthy you treat them as your equal but when you're dealing with narcissists you do need to establish some authority over them you do need to do that because otherwise you're just giving your power away to someone who is weak and stupid and foolish these people were never meant to have power as you can see that by how they use it or should I say how they misuse it how they use it to abuse manipulate and destroy people that's what happens when you give your power away to them and that is why you should recognize that you need to keep your power to yourself stop giving it away to weak stupid people who will only misuse it and recognize your own strength and intelligence by developing the awareness of what you will do with that power and actually write it down make a list of the things that you would do if you kept your power how would you use it to help yourself other people and the community in which we live in how would you use it to do that make a list and write it down and then you can write a list of what the narcissist does when you hand your power over to them write a list of all the different ways that they misuse it and abuse it and then by that point it should be a no-brainer for that point you should understand that yes you do need to keep your power to yourself you do you do need to stop giving it away to weak stupid people such as narcissist yes you do need to stop doing that you will eventually come to that conclusion as I did in my own research and experience of five years of doing this naturally I it was inevitable that I would come to this conclusion yes and you will too in time the more of my videos you watch you will realize that yes narcissism it comes from weakness more than anything else it is weakness and it is a lack of intelligence especially emotional intelligence it's a lack of empathy more specifically affective empathy some narcissists yes they may have some level of cognitive empathy but they can't really share your experience emotionally that is why they fail to understand yes that is why they fail to do that so of course when someone is weak stupid and they lack empathy the game is never going to end it will always be there the game is pretty much just the illusion that they create that illusion will always be there without the illusion I would imagine that they would lose their minds they would go insane I mean I can't even imagine what they would do if the illusion ever fell apart I mean they they would automatically have to take a subordinate position but since they they're so power hungry I would think that they would probably kill themselves first before they were going to do that either that or they would just try to kill you anyway and as you know many of them yes they do become violent not always physically violent but emotionally psychologically and yes that does have damaging effects on you especially if you don't have to heal and process it so yeah it's good to be aware though that's the illusion and I know it's something that a lot of you may not want to hear right now but it is important for me to tell you that the illusion is indefinite the illusion will never end and you should know that by recognizing that it is necessary for them to maintain their false self without the illusion how can they maintain the false character and without the false character how can they get supplied they're not just going to wake up one day throw the false character away and start from the beginning again they're not going to do that because that would automatically put them at a disadvantage narcissists they don't do that they take shortcuts so the illusion yes that will always be there it's not going to go away and it really doesn't matter how long it is because I'm sure if there's anyone in the live chat right now who has been with a narcissist for a long period of time you might have been with them for 50 years and you know the illusion is still there you know it hasn't gone anywhere because narcissists don't do the work they're very insecure the very weak people so they will hold on to the illusion for their lives if there's one thing that a narcissist is loyal and devoted to it is their false self and you can be sure that they will abandon their family members their wives their husbands even their own children if it ever came down to it before they would abandon their false self their false character the illusion and you've only got a look of grounds at how they behave how they treat other people how they treat their own family and their friends how they manipulate people and force flying monkeys and it should be obvious to you that yes their main priority is their false character and the illusion that comes before anyone else they will happily cause destruction and inconvenience to their own supposedly who are meant to be their family members or friends they will happily do that they will leave them out in the cold it'll shut them down yes they will do that because the illusion comes first the false character comes first everything else comes second third fourth whatever it just comes after it's less of a priority so whatever you thought you had with them it wasn't real it was just an illusion and that is why if you ever dare to confront them if you ever dare to make them own up to something or you try to expose them then watch how they abandon you they will abandon you first before the illusion falls apart yes they will abandon you first before they do that and it doesn't matter who you are it doesn't matter how significant of a position you think you hold with them that all goes out the window if you threaten the illusion and this does not just go for the victims such as yourself who is watching this it's the same thing for the flying monkeys if the flying monkeys will be enablers who maybe their family members friends co-workers whoever it is if they dare to threaten the illusion at any time you can be sure of course the narcissist is going to choose the illusion and the false character over anyone so in a nutshell yes all of these people you see surrounded the narcissist they actually do hold an illusion of significance importance and relevance to the narcissist they are all disposable they could be disposed at any time if they refuse to follow the false narrative and play the game they all hold an illusion of significance and importance and value as well because they're only valuable if they submit to the false narrative and the illusion if they're not willing to submit to that then at that point they are a lost cause they are a means to an end they serve no purpose after that and you may have noticed that in your relationship with the narcissist you may have noticed that because if you ever dare to question or confront them you threaten the illusion you threaten to expose them well let me let me know down in the comments what happened to you when you did that I bet that they discarded you they started the smear campaign against you they enforced their flying monkeys and enablers they tried to destroy you because it all comes down to the fact that narcissists are extremely insecure they hate themselves they can't stand themselves so they create this false character and the illusion to protect their fragile egos and that's it's all that it really is that is what the game is that's what the game is and that is why the game never ends they will just throw people out just discard them by that point they're just garbage just like you may have been just like I was we've all been through it because they don't even see you as a person a separate person with your own feelings and needs anyway and their minds are just an object and their minds you're not real because to them reality is not real the truth isn't real it's false it's the opposite everything's in black and white and it is the illusion the fake world the alternate reality the false self all of these things are real in their minds in their world it's you you're fake you're bad you're evil that's how they see it and yes they are completely delusional they can't see it any other way because as I said the illusion is indefinite it never ends the illusion can never end but maybe the narcissist collapsed often it does happen in old age if they did have no more flying monkeys or enablers and they were completely alone I would assume that they would go insane maybe they would try to commit suicide although at that point it would be difficult to tell if it is genuine or if they are just trying to get people's attention so they can gain sympathy and gather new flying monkeys it would be very difficult to tell and to be honest I haven't had much experience about my own life I haven't actually witnessed that myself so I'm not sure exactly what would happen with the illusion if the illusion would fall apart if there were no flying monkeys or enablers maybe it would just be this one crazy delusional person who just backs on their emotions with no logic or reason maybe that could be a possibility I don't know but I'm open to learning new things so let me know down in the comment section if you have ever experienced that in your life if you have ever witnessed the collapsed narcissist and what happens when there's no more enablers or flying monkeys what happens to the illusion to the forced character I would like to hear from you because I am always open to learning new things I research every day but I would imagine that even then as tragic as it sounds I think they would actually in that moment of despair and desperation they would just create yet another false character to suit the current environment to just momentarily adapt to that and perhaps in that moment it may seem genuine but yes it is just another false character and then as soon as they gather new flying monkeys and enablers and they gain sympathy from playing the victim I would imagine that once they're back on top again that more overt side of them would come back and then they would go ahead with the illusion once again I'd imagine that is what would happen but that's just based on my research because as I said I haven't actually experienced this in my own life I mean typically if a narcissist does collapse or the illusion falls apart you probably won't even see them after that you probably won't even hear from them because they're not going to want you to see them fall it's very embarrassing and humiliating for them if there's one thing that I most definitely learned about narcissists it's that they can't be vulnerable they can't be vulnerable at all they hide behind this wall because they're very weak and afraid that they act strong and tough on the outside if you have ever caused a narcissistic injury sometimes you won't even know what caused it you will see how quickly they can crumble they're very sensitive it doesn't take much to do them as I said they are very weak and emotional but yeah let's see what we've got you in the live chat I can see there are some comments here he's just in the zone a bit there just giving you this valuable information which I hope will inspire and help you when you come into the shade more here before I read the comments sorry I do have a bit of a cough right now Tiffany Rivera says they love playing game yes they do they enjoy it it is an amusing activity to them believe it or not they enjoy doing it and of course it's very difficult for us to comprehend to understand that because all we want is just to be open direct and honest that's just the way that we are built now let's say it's not built like that they were taught from a very young age to be passive aggressive to beat around the bush and to never face things head on yes they were taught to do that they were taught to avoid direct confrontation about how things never get resolved they just keep going around in circles they repeat the same things again and again and they never get anywhere they never get anywhere Monique Lucero says they are children that never grew up zero love of their false selves users yes a lot of them are like children that never go up but at the same time they are missing the very childhood qualities and virtues that are important useful and magical they are missing those qualities and virtues that purity and innocence that childhood magic they are missing those things and that is why when you're around them it is very boring and predictable their act gets all very fast they're no fun and that is why but yes you should most definitely not love their false self don't encourage it too much give them a little bit here and there just to keep them going just to validate the illusion so that they don't crash down on you but at the same time keep your distance don't get too close you don't want to get something through the illusion where you become delusional and you start believing that it's real because once you do that and you go down the rabbit hole it can be very difficult for you to get back out of it let's see what else we got here Cheney says they've done great nothing more grotesque than an aging narcissist yes that's very true I mean but the younger narcissist at least then it makes more sense you kind of understand the narcissism there I mean they may be quite physically attractive for instance but then when they start aging and they stop taking care of themselves in the way that they used to they're just like big babies and it makes no logical sense because you look at them and they say hold on a minute you've got nothing of value to offer to me you can't even have an intelligent conversation and yet you walk it around and they feel the shit doesn't add up it doesn't make any sense to a man who is grounded in sanity and reality doesn't make any sense to a man who is grounded in that but yes that is just how it goes for them you know it used to be there was a time a long time ago actually but there was a time when especially then yes we grow older maybe we lose our looks but we used to be values for our wisdom and experience and that used to be more valuable than anything else more valuable than how you look and that is what made those men more valuable than these narcissistic women who parade on their physical appearance which actually doesn't really offer any value in society today but now sadly we we see so many more narcissistic men not only do they lose their looks and they're still narcissistic but they also have no wisdom or experience to offer to anyone but in my opinion that is very sad because there used to be a time when we would respect our elders and now it seems there's more people who admire the youth solely on how they look for these meaningless physical possessions their cars their houses their watches which don't really provide any value to us anyway but yes that's just how it is that's just the way that things are going today and it is very sad but that's just how it is this is how it is we can only be a reflection of what we want to see in the world you can't change other people not directly anyway you can do it by like i'm doing spreading awareness and hoping that they will see it and they will change they will see it in themselves because that's what we should be doing i mean that's what i do myself when i continue to research narcissism of course i look at myself sometimes the question if i possess any of these descriptions or traits and then i try to manage it i try to be more empathetic more understanding with other people that is something that we should all do every day we should always self reflect that is where your power comes from just a good guess they will be angry to show any sign of happiness it irritates them because they can't experience that they can't generate their happiness from within and maybe that is why they're so tied to the material world rather than the spiritual reality because that's how they get their happiness and even then it doesn't bring them much common anyway because if you were to participate and consume and the very activities that they do would probably bring you much more common than it does for them and maybe that's why they're so mad that's why they're so controlling that's why they have to shut you down and stop you from doing that because they already know how happy it would make you if you ever did that and that is the last thing that they want to see tanya says they will win no matter what we do i'm 65 and i don't have the strength to fight anymore if you will i'll be a piece of all well i beg to differ with that tanya because for one thing you are watching my live video right now so you must have some strength in you haven't gone over to the dark side just yet and as i've said before in my videos whether they like it or not yes in fact love does win in the game and there is nothing they can do about that these lower vibrational levels where they reside whether it's shame guilt fear pride desire these things will never bring them what they're looking for because the ego always wants more the ego is never satisfied so just as soon as they think they've got what they wanted the ego always wants more so now they're thinking what else do i want what else do i need and that's why love wins in the games i know i don't just mean the love that you have for other people or things although that is important as well but it's also the love that you have for yourself when you look back at everything you've been through in your life all of the suffering all of the achievements well i think we look back through that and you you realize that you have made it it's an incredible thing and it does boost your confidence in yourself and that's really what it is it's that journey it's that it's not the destination it's everything that you experienced along the way and when you look back at that nothing will make you love yourself more than that especially when you're dealing with narcissists and you see how everyone tried to bring you down if you look back at the past self who okay maybe they did lack wisdom maybe they did do some undesirable things and you may wonder where in the mind you were during that time but despite that you kept moving you got up you kept going and you climbed to a higher place and that is what overrides the shame that you may have felt back then develop this love for yourself because despite that you kept going and you made it you kept going and you made it so yes love does win at the end whether they like it or not this really nothing they can do about that and that is something that i've always believed in from day one i never thought anything different that is why i have such a strong faith in god and i know that god has always been there for me my entire life he's always been there to protect me and he always will be there as well and that's another thing as well it's your love for a higher power a higher force whether it is god or the universe whatever it may be for you that is a very powerful thing a lot of things have been done in the name of god and we should respect that we should appreciate it and we should hope to become more like that as well but yes that is everything the love that you have for yourself as long as you still have love for yourself and your hearts you always win doesn't matter who tries to devalue you will discard you doesn't matter what they do to you because everything that they do every act of abuse and you look back and you remember everything that they do to you yeah you do that you remember everything and you realize that's what were they trying to do what were they trying to do to me back then they were trying to take away my love for myself and when you remember that you will realize that that is the one thing that gave you power that is the one thing that you needed all along it's that love for yourself and that is one thing they can't take away that is one thing that will always be there especially if you are an empath you will always have that no one can take it away they can only try and pull you into the illusion if you doubt yourself but that love is always going to be there that's what makes you different that's what makes you a target for these types of people these types of predators they see that they see that love this that innocence sometimes they see that pride as well and they want to rob you of it but if you are a true empath that never goes away that will always be there and there is nothing that they can do about that and yeah that's really what you need to do that is what I advise you to do is to continue to practice self-love and self-care Tanya says she can't hear anymore well then I'm just connecting the sound to the car can you hear me now let me know if you can hear me yes every act of abuse that they do there is a very clear intention behind it and it is designed to harm you it is designed to take away your self-love they don't act out of love out of giving love to you if they did then maybe you would feel better following it it's because they intend to harm you and that is why everything they did that's what it was designed to do it was to take away yourself love and make you hate yourself that's what they were trying to do to you and that is why it's so important for you to develop the self-love because that is what protects you from narcissists that's what keeps them away and of course that is another reason why they're trying to destroy it to keep you stuck to keep you in mesh with them so then you would never leave you would be under their control for a long time so yes that's really the message I want to end with here I want to finish this on a positive note and encourage you to practice self-love self-care this is something that you need to do and yes I do conduct one of my coaching sessions and I do sessions as well specifically on self-love and self-care and what you need to do to get there what you can book on my website it is narksafiver.co.uk and other than that as always please give this video a thumbs up if you enjoyed it if it was helpful for you and I look forward to talking with you in another one very


There are a lot of arch based distributions out there It used to be all the rage to try to make arch Linux just a little bit easier to install And even now that arch install exists on the arch isos There are still distributions out there that attempt to make arch Linux Either easier to install or just to install arch Linux in a different way And they've all developed and evolved in interesting fashions Like they've all Offer something just a little bit different than arch does either they make it easier to set up or they Put provide some post install scripts or something like that in order to make arch Linux just a little bit better Or just a little bit different so today what we're going to be doing is talking about a distribution called arch labs now arch labs is a distribution that is meant to emulate the Look and feel of Bunsen labs from back in the day now if you've weren't around back in the day and I honestly wasn't around when Bunsen labs was still a thing So I'm not quite sure what Bunsen labs looked and felt like but apparently there's a following of people who are Interested in that look and feel who decided to move all of that look and feel to arch Linux So that's basically what arch labs is now as I usually do in these distro first looks is I try to answer three questions What is it? Who's it for and is it good? And honestly, I never get those in the right you know order because I answer them all over the place But those are the three questions that I try to answer. So that's what we'll try to do today So first what is arch labs? Well, I've already kind of talked about it It is arch Linux, but with a look and feel inspired by Bunsen labs now according to their about page, which I'll show you here They say that they have moved away a little bit from The Bunsen labs look and feel so they say now that arch labs has become established We have developed our own look and feel we have kept true door legacy by keeping the ISO images as minimal as possible And adding only core applications and utilities. So as we'll see here in a minute that last part is very important This is a very very minimal Distribution you are very much in control of what is installed on your system right from the get-go And I honestly kind of like that It's very much a Empowering kind of thing when you are in charge of Installing the stuff that you want to do, but it doesn't take so far as to be Something that you have to know how to do because there are Systems in place during the installation that allow you to install packages that you want to install And you don't have to worry about any actual knowledge of how to do that at least quite yet now I will say because they don't Proclaim this as a new user distro. So they are Actually saying right in their first paragraph on their website that this is for intermediate or advanced users So despite the fact that the way I see this is an easier way to install arch That's not the way the developers see it. So I don't know which way I would go in terms of How I would define this distribution in terms of who it's for and maybe we'll talk about that a little bit later But overall It does seem to be more catered towards people who have used window managers before And the reason why I say that is because all of the Quote-unquote desktop environments that they offer They're all window managers now You guys know me. I'm a window manager guy and that makes me very happy. There are not a lot of distributions out there that are just window managers Usually they all offer some kind of desktop environment, whether you know gnome or plasma or whatever Arch labs only offers window managers. So let's go ahead and jump into the Installation the installation is probably the most interesting part of this entire distribution because they do things in a little bit different ways Now, obviously There are other distributions to install like this. They use an end curses like installer I'm not sure if it's actually using end curses because it's not blue but the Look and feel of the installer looks like end curses And basically you just go through the installation step by step by step as you'll see in the b-roll And what I like about this installer is one. It's very nerdy. So you kind of get some nerd credit for using it but also Unlike other distributions that rely on an end curses like installer. So like void It doesn't require you to have a ton of extra knowledge So if you've ever installed void this way before There's a certain Period in the void installer where you have to choose between what groups your user is of you as a part of right And if you don't have any clue what a group is in linux That section of the void installer is really hard for you because you don't know which ones you're supposed to choose And the problem is that that step in the void installer is really really important, right? If you don't give yourself access to those groups that you need Certain things on your computer might not work. You might not have access to external hard drives You might not have access to sound, you know Any of these things could be possible if you don't know what you're doing with arch labs There's nothing like that. I will say that it does require a modicum of Knowledge about linux in terms of what each step actually does because it doesn't have a lot of explanation for what each step Is supposed to be doing But it does have a blurb at the top of each little screen And it allows you to get a sense of what it's doing, but it doesn't explain it in depth So it does require you to have some knowledge of what linux is and how it installs and maybe even how arch installs itself So you go through you select your keyboard and your Locale and you create your user and you give it a root password And then you can select between what window managers you want. So they offer DK, which I believe is going to be their default Usually their defaults are at the top and DK's at the at the top they offer dwm i3 BS PWM and open box. I think those are the ones that they offer I chose to install several of them because that's just the way that I usually do things because I want to install everything So I I installed several of them and it worked just fine And then somewhere during the process of installation. You are also given a screen of packages that you can install This is a selection of the most popular packages on linux things like audacity and vim and emacs and Gimp and all this stuff. There's Maybe 30 or 40 different packages that you can choose from and obviously this is not the entire breadth and width of the Arch Linux repositories being offered to you, but the most popular Applications are there for you if you want to install them or have the installer install them for you I should say and this is our first indication of just how minimal arch labs is because If you've select nothing on this page, you're not going to get anything, right? You're going to get the window manager that you chose and any absolutely essential utilities to run those Window managers, so you'll get a terminal of some kind So if you just installed dwm just for example, you'd get st installed You get d menu so that you could use you a launcher or some kind and that's pretty much it Now there are some other utilities that it comes with which I'll show you here in a minute But base install if you select none of those applications in that one screen You're going to get very very few actual applications installed and you'll have to do that post install now personally I really like distributions that offer this functionality So distributions like arco and other distributions like that that offer you a screen somewhere during the installation that allows you to choose What applications are installed once your Installation is finished. I think that that entire process is really good But I don't think that it is user friendly at all because you have to know What those applications are you have to know what you need in order to actually do this So user friendly I shouldn't say user friendly. I should say new user friendly. So that's more important It is actually user friendly It's not new user friendly because you have to have some knowledge And that's kind of the theme throughout this entire installation You have to have some Knowledge of how to do this right and what you're doing right It doesn't require a ton of knowledge like it would if you're just installing arch Linux the old fashioned way Or if you're installing gen 2 or Linux from scratch or whatever. It doesn't go that far but it's a level of Knowledge needed more than what you'd get if you're just using a calamari's installer or the ubiquity installer or whatever So it's it's somewhere there in the middle. So that's the installation So let's actually go ahead and take a look at arch labs now that I've have things installed. So So like I said, I installed all of the window managers And if you install all the window managers, just like I did, you'll find that they all look pretty much Identical and they've done a good job of keeping the look and feel Fairly symmetrical across all of the window managers that they offer. So you're not going to see any garish or Over the top theming here. It's just a basic window manager. Now. This particular one is called DK. Now, I've never actually used DK before But that's what this is now supposedly DK is similar to DWM and that's as far as my knowledge of DK actually goes So if we actually go into the configuration file here, you'll see that it is actually a Window manager that is configured in a shell script similar to herp slough wm or Bspwm both of those are configured in some kind of script. It doesn't have to be a shell script, but you get the idea, right? You can configure this inside of a of a shell script and that's what's provided for you by default and the Default look and feel is all configured right here. So if if you are going to get into This particular window manager, this is where you do all your work now I don't have any opinions whatsoever on the DK window manager. I have no I know nothing about it This is the first I've actually heard of it as far as I'm aware. I'm I mean, I think I may be very vaguely remember trying it out once But if I it was like a pass through like I've never actually Spent any time in it whatsoever Now according to this what I'm seeing right here. It uses lemon barb So does that mean DK doesn't come with its own bar or is that just a part here? I'm not actually sure so again I've no knowledge of of DK whatsoever, but if we were to log out and show you one of the other Window managers that I installed so I think log out is super shift x super Super alt shift q. Yeah, there we go. Now. Oh during the installation I forgot it does allow you to choose between different display managers I chose lie But it also does allow you to just log into to your system via a tty so you can use start x Or you could use light dm. Those are the three that it up that gives you an option for So let me choose that show you what bsp wm looks like So this is what bsp wm looks like and forgive the wallpaper that just changed just Messed up when I changed the resolution you get the idea They all look just like this basically some of them have a menu bsp wm happens to have a menu So I'm not actually sure Yeah, this is still st And I think the default configurate the default zoom for st is super shift page up But that doesn't seem to work or not super shift control shift page of control page up. No, none of those things work Uh, so they've either changed that or I'm miss or remembering it's either one as possible So if we go into our configuration for bsp wm here and them into Bsp wm rc There's not a ton of stuff here in terms of the Configuration, but we can see they're actually using tint to is their panel. So this is tint two Which I've never actually used on any of my configurations before This is a very very minimal configuration of bsp wm It's there's nothing wrong with that obviously, but they've done and that runs through basically all of their window managers that I've tried I've tried i3. I tried the bsp wm one I've tried dwm, which I can't find the configuration for I'm assuming it's in slash opt I didn't actually end up looking and I've tried the dk one for a little while and they're all relatively Minimal when it comes to their Their configuration files. So the the longest one is actually I think dk Outside of what I'm assuming what the bsp or the dwm the dwm one looks like because that's just gonna have all the source code and stuff in it But they're all very minimal and they all look basically like this some of the bars bars are at the bottom Some of the bars are at the top So look and feel are all basically the same no matter what window manager you're in One thing that I will say is that the the key bindings across window managers are not the same So keep that in mind sometimes the super key is super sometimes the super key is alt Which one it is really depends on which window manager is and bsp wm the super key is super Why they decided to change between window managers? I'm not exactly sure that's it was kind of confusing me But I don't think that they expect people to install more than one window manager So it probably doesn't matter for most people. So if we hit alt p we'll actually see what is actually installed here So we're going to control over or control Tab over to d run and you'll see that there's some stuff here that's pre-installed. So some of the stuff I installed so I chose firefox. I chose neo them and I think I selected Rofi actually rofi was already here There was a third one that ranger was the third thing that I chose to install those are the things that I installed During the installation also neo fetch I installed afterwards Other than that everything here is what you're seeing is what they would have out of the box If you chose none of the things during installation. So the customized look and feel this is actually an xfce feature So if you wanted to change the g2k theme, this is what you'd use You could also change the icon theme from here the mouse cursor theme from here as well Now what's interesting is that they use this instead of x lx appearance, which is what most people use when it comes to Managing these types of things. So it does have some of the xfce back end Although that does seem to be about it when it comes to what's actually considered xfce everything else is not here So you don't see it like the settings manager or anything like that It has uh x term and then as rofi, which is what you're seeing on screen now It does come with pycom pre-installed and oh, I also ensure I chose to install lacrity That was a me thing other than that that's literally it has htop installed by default So if you wanted to see what htop wouldn't you know look like that's what htop looks like that's Literally it that's all there is to arch lin or arch labs links and the reason why I keep Stumbling over the whole arch labs thing is because if you go into a terminal here and do neofetch If you can spell neofetch which I can't wow neofatch It's really bad You can see it shows you it looks it says it's arch linux. It doesn't say arch labs. It says arch linux and You can see this package count here of 635 that that's minimal and that has three Window managers installed maybe even four. So I I installed dk i3 Bspwm and dwm. That's three window managers And all of them including everything that comes along with the system only added up to 635 Um and you know, I'm not really wasn't surprised, but that's still pretty damn minimal Now this is arch linux. You're expecting all the latest stuff. I chose zsh for the shell during installation You can choose between uh zsh bash and I think fish was there. I'm not I can't actually remember It has the 6.22 kernel, which is the latest one that is stable And most of the all of the window managers use st as their default terminal So I would if I were to use this I would change that absolutely immediately. I can't stand st So that is arch labs So moving on to the rest of the questions that we have to answer. So is it good If you like arch linux, you're gonna like arch labs Now the question I have and I can't answer is why would you use this Instead of just using arch linux now It's possible that you prefer a more guided installer arch labs provides that So with arch install all you'll see is a like itemized list basically of things that you have to do, right? It's not very guided, right? It does provide you some instructions But it's very much still you have to have quite a bit of knowledge about The things you need to do in order to use it. It's better than it's used to be obviously But still you have to have some knowledge arch labs is a little simpler than that and that it explains things more And it's much more guided it takes you through step by step Do this then this then this then this and then have an installed system So that's one reason why you may want to use it Another reason why is perhaps you just prefer this look and feel and you're you want a very minimal version of arch And this gives you that with a very minimal look and feel and you don't want to deal with any other Customizations or whatsoever. You're just into minimalism and that's what this is So it's a little bit easier install has a very minimal look and feel is very minimal in terms of package base And it gives you a lot of power during installation and obviously after installation of what's on your system So maybe it doesn't have as much customization there as arch does. I mean it does But whereas with arch all of your stuff that you want to install almost always happens after installation So this gives you some guided tools to select things that you want to install whereas arch really doesn't So is it good? I would say Again, yes, if you if you like arch linux arch linux is good. This is good It it feels a little bit like a copper like should I say this is fantastic? Like it's it's arch like that's it's literally what it is And I will I will say that I like the fact that all they offer is window managers I'm a window manager guy. So I prefer that kind of thing But if you are also a window manager kind of person You'll probably like this too, but most people who prefer window managers are just going to install their configuration files And at that point the the arch labs look and feel will go away So that probably doesn't play a lot of role into you know, who this is for So that kind of moves us into who this is actually for and the answer to that question is I don't know who this is for because Who would use this when they could just use arch linux and have all the power And it really does come down to that installation the installation is a little bit more guided Whereas arch install is much more do-it-yourself. So those that's really the Bottom line. Is it good? Yes. Who is it for? People who want a more guided arch linux install, I should say and people who prefer absolute minimalism, but with a Pre-configured look and feel I should say I guess that's the best way to say it I guess I don't I don't know Arch labs is a little bit confusing for me because I'm not sure why it exists now Um, I maybe it's a developer love project that they this is theirs That's what they use and they just are happy to share it with people And there's nothing wrong with that There's a lot of distributions out there that just started off as a thing that the developer wanted to have for themselves And they decided to share if that's what this is, that's fine And it's very very good. It's arch linux with a guided installer That's basically what this is and that's perfectly fine, right? If this was meant to be more than that, I don't see it But I don't think it was meant to be more than that. I think that's what this was meant to be It was just a distribution that was released You know by people who wanted something that looked felt and installed just like this So if you are An arch linux person, but you don't feel like I'll installing arch linux You want to have a little bit more of a guided install a little bit more of a Structured post install with you know wind manager or or a Pre-configured configuration of some kind of wind manager arch labs is something that you might want to try So that is it for this video. I apologize for not being as nearly as organized as I probably should have been I lost my notes halfway through So, uh, I'm pretty sure I answered the question Is it good and who's it for like four times in this last like four minutes or something like that? So I must I apologize for repeating myself over and over again. Hopefully I can pull some of that stuff out and editing That'd be really nice. So that is it for this video if you have thoughts on arch labs You can leave those in the comment section below. I'd love to hear from you You can follow me on mastodon or odyssey those links will be in the video description You can support me on patreon at patreon.com slash the linux cast links for libera pay And youtube will be in the video description as well if you'd prefer to support me there Thanks to everybody who does support me on patreon and youtube you guys are all absolutely amazing without you The channel does not be anywhere near where it is right now. So thank you so very very very very very very much for your support I truly do appreciate it again Broken record there at the word very I don't know what's going on with that. It's just one video after another I keep doing that stuff. Anyways, thanks for your support. Thanks everybody for watching. I'll see you next time

If we add a functioning legislature, it would actually be doing yourself, and that's to rein in the ambitions of the politicians and to shrink what is defined as public policy. Do you suggest that democracy is more radical and direct democracy is not the way forward? Felly, mae'n rhaid i'r strategi hynny yn ddechrau'r ffordd. Felly, mae'r cyfrifio ar y cyfrifio yw'r rhaglen. Mae'r cyfrifio yw'r cyfrifio yw'r cyfrifio yw'r cyfrifio. Mae'r cyfrifio yw'r cyfrifio yw'r cyfrifio yw'r cyfrifio yw'r cyfrifio gyfrifio. Y maeh, everyone is livres for the 6th of the majority! Any group that you have, you are always going to be able to carve out a majority that's going to screw the minority. And what is the ultimate minority? The ultimate minority is the individual. The whole idea of governance to prevent that, is to prevent any gang or group of going after the individual. It's to protect individual rights and they're full Ieithaf, doeddwn ydech chi'n orio cywbeth a'r ffordd, a rhaid i'n ffordd o rhan yn gofyn a'i ddaeth i'r rol yn y US.

But The amount of lobbying' and taking out city council members, the lunchers. The corruption just becomes more intimate with people who are going to be upset about their corruption now becausethe next time they want something They'll use the same tool. So i think it's inherently corrupting in size just makes that corruption more intimate. But it doesn't really change the nature of the corruption. I think you give up a huge amount. You give up a principle. You're giving up the principle of individualism. You're giving up the principle of individualism. You're accepting the notion that what matters is a majority. The size of the majority, the size of the voting group shouldn't matter. What's important is individual. What's important is, are his rights being protected or are they not being protected? Can he use his land any way he chooses to or not? I think that the size of the group that is violating his rights is irrelevant. And plays into the hands of the socialists who can also organize on the local level and probably get as much influence on local politics. I think in our culture they have them all high ground because our culture has adopted their ethics and therefore they have much more influence on people than we do.


Family Theater presents Peter Loford and Walter Brennan. From Hollywood, the Mutual Network in Cooperation with Family Theater presents West of the Pecos, souring Peter Loford. And now here is your host, Walter Brennan. Thank you, Tony LaFranco. Family Theater's only purpose is to bring to everyone's attention a practice that must become an important part of our lives if we are to win peace for ourselves, peace for our families and peace for the world. Family Theater urges you to pray. Pray together as a family. And now to our transcribed drama, West of the Pecos, starring Peter Loford as Mr. Smythe. In September of 1949, Edgar McRede gave his foreman instructions on caring for the ranch in his absence, hopped into his Jeep with a Geiger counter and drove off in the direction of the hills to look for uranium in the hope of increasing an already considerable fortune. By September of 1956, Edgar McRede had not returned. There was only one conclusion. He has indubitably passed beyond this veil of tears. Dead? In a word, dead. Yes. But I say, how does all this concern me, Mr. Tuppens? I'm coming to that, old chap. I have here before me this letter from Marcus and Shea, attorney's at law in a place called Flagstaff Arizona. They inform me that the said Edgar McRede, having been declared legally dead, a careful search was made for any heirs he might have had. It seems that you, Mr. Smythe, are the sole heir. I? You. But a cattle ranch? More, much more than just a cattle ranch, Mr. Smythe. According to this, you should be quite a celebrity. It seems that you will be one of the few men in America who actually owns a village. Did you say a village? Mm, some error in property recording, something to do with an old Spanish grant, I believe. But it seems a village known as Bitter Wells is located on the ranch. At any rate, it considerably increases the value of the property, should you decide to sell. Of course I'd like to sell. I suppose I'll have to go out there and do that. To the colonies, I mean. I'm afraid so. This letter says if you should manage to arrive in the first week in October, it would be to your advantage. It appears that it's frontier week or something like that. Well, I hate to waste all that time. I don't suppose you could handle the sale, Mr. Tubbins. Oh, I'm afraid not. No, the law, you know. Yeah, I suppose I shall have to go then. One other thing, Mr. Smythe. I don't believe they call them the colonies anymore. No, I think it's the United States now. Hey, wish I could tell you, Murray. Well, if you can't, who can? Now, as far as I can see, they just didn't any way out. Most of this land was originally homesteaded. Now, we find out that nobody had any right to homestead it. Legally, it belongs to this fellow Leslie Smythe. Smythe. But if a man paid cash, it would be just his hard luck. Apparently, there just aren't any clear titles. Well, this is a fine time to find out about it. It just naturally wouldn't come out unless somebody looked into the matter. And Edgar McReady, being declared legally dead, the courts just had to look into his titles and such. Oh, Mr. Maude. Well, it sure doesn't seem right. Well, possession's nine points of the law, but it's pretty hard to make it stick. Murray, that radio is yours. It didn't work. Hello, Maude. Turn it on. Oh, hello, Frank. Hello, Maude. What's so important about the radio? You see, you see. Frank, anything new? No way out. That's what you mean. He owns us Locke Stockton Barrel. Oh, dear. What's so important about the radio? There. You see, I was listening to the news over at my dress shop, you know. And you'll see. Not a matter of the address being there. The interest is there. And the gate receipts for the PCL are evidence of that. The idea of the majors moving west is at least no longer thought out as a crazy idea. And now, as I promised earlier in the program, an exclusive interview recorded at the boat with a man whose name is making news both in this country and in the British Isles, Mr. Leslie Smythe, the new Baron of Bitterwell. This is it. Mr. Smythe, most Americans have heard of the late Edgar McGready and of his fabulous ranch. Would you mind telling us your relationship with the late Mr. McGready? Not at all. I'm the son of his half-brother, a nephew, you might say, though I wasn't even aware of it till recently. No, he wasn't even aware of it.  No, no, no, no, Murray. Now, I suppose you've heard that in addition to inheriting one of the wealthiest cattle ranches in America, you've also fallen heir to a town of some 6,000 people, in a manner of speaking. I suppose you've done little research to sort of familiarize yourself with the Western United States since you came into your inheritance? As a matter of fact, I haven't. No. My work, you see, I'm Professor of European History. Oh, yes. It's kept me pretty much involved with the history of another part of the world. But I think I know what to expect. I used to go to the cinema quite often, up until the war, you know. The war? The Nazis, you know. I believe you people were in it. We were. I haven't been to the cinema much since then, but I remember a couple of pictures about the West, one with Walter Brennan and some chap, let's see, Cooper or Dooper, something like that. Well, you might be in for some surprises, Mr. Smite. Can you give us a general idea of your plans? There's only to say that I have made them. I intend disposing of the city in a manner I expect in the long run will be tremendously profitable to me. But then perhaps this isn't the time or the place in which to discuss it. Well, thank you very much, Professor Leslie Smite.  What'd you do that for? I've heard enough. That stuff, sure. Tremendously profitable to me. Huh? You heard what he said. You were mean at business about disposing of the city? Yes. Oh, that sounds bad. Real bad, doesn't it? Ten years I spent building up this drug store, thinking it was mine. I tell you, it's not fair. It's just not fair for some dude to come in and sell it right out from under me. Well, what about me? Yes, what about Maude? She spent a good deal of time building up her dress shop clientele, too, you know. Matter of fact, who in his town hasn't? You haven't? A lawyer just about carries his office around in his hat. And all my clients? Oh, well, that's true, yes. When we go bust, you go bust, too. And pray tell me, will you, what am I going to be the mayor of when smith? And I quote, disposer to this town. That's true.  I'm going to try to drum up a little last minute business for myself. Yes, I am. And let me know if you come up with anything. You know, we're sort of a legal out, I'm frank. Not likely, Maude. Yeah, well, yes. I halfway wish he hadn't come in and told us about the radio interview. I think maybe we'd have been happier not knowing. Oh, I don't know. Just because we got no ideas doesn't mean we won't get one, or that maybe somebody else in town hasn't got one. Well, if anybody's got a plan, we should come forward before the owner shows. Well, I think I'll just mosey around a little bit, talk with a few people. I'll see you later, Maude. I'm not trying. That's enough. That's enough. Hold it. Hold it. Sometimes it goes, and sometimes it doesn't. Well, sounds like generate a trouble to me. Yeah, to me too. Look, Jeannie, if you can leave it for a few hours. Yeah, I guess I'll have to. Can't push it to work and back, you know. And you'll have to have it in good running condition for the exodus. You mean when McCready's heir gets here? Oh, you heard the broadcast? Yeah. We heard it. He said he was going to dispose of bitter welds. I wish I knew what he meant by that. He owns the real estate. He's going to sell it. What else could he mean? It's cut and dried. Jeannie, a new generator will run you about $9, OK? OK. Sounds like a wholesale price. It is. You know, I wish I hadn't spent all that money for my frontier week costumes. I guess there won't be much sense in holding it this year. Nope, just not. Remember that interview? The only thing the guy knows about the West is what he's seen in the movies. He probably thinks that was real.  Oh, the one with Gary Coop and Walter Brennan. Ah, yeah. That one would be the Western one. Weren't about Judge Roy Bean, the law west of the Pickers. Well, if that's all. Well, what's up, Mayor? Say, Eric, how many people would you say we could get into the high school auditorium? Well, five or 600, maybe. Why? Well, maybe with a few loud speakers outside. Maybe it did work. What would work?  And I'm going to set up a special committee for frontier week. For this year? Right on schedule. Yeah, but I thought you were going to call it off. Changed my mind. In fact, I think Bitter Wells will have a frontier week this year like we've never had before. So you, the fellow, wanted to get off here? The Bitter Wells? This is it. Got your hat up in the rack? I'll reach it down for you. Oh, thank you. It's not a very large town, is it? No, not very. Ordinarily, we don't even stop here. Right this way. Understand from the papers that some fellow inherited the town. Turned out when they looked up the papers in some ranch, the town happened to be right in the middle of it. Yes, I know. Here, I'll get that door open for you. Things seem a little lively here today. It's your first trip west? Yes, that's right. The shooting. I thought so. You don't sound like you come from this part of the country. The shooting, you don't suppose some bandit. Probably celebrating Whiskerino Week. Whiskerino? Friend, we got a schedule to keep. I beg your pardon? You're holding up the train, if you don't mind. Of course, I'm sorry. Thank you. Oh, my luggage. Be at the station here. Good luck. Thank you. I think I may need it. Well? It's about far enough, stranger. What's that? I said, that's about far enough. You, uh, you don't have to point that gun at me, you know. I don't reckon I've seen you all around Bitterwells before, I don't reckon. Well, as a matter of fact, I, uh, well, I just this moment got off the train. Got off the train? Yeah, just a moment ago. Well, now that's right, interesting. Train usually goes through here like 60. Stop today. If you'd been just a second earlier, you'd have seen me. The really? The Tex.  Yeah, Mosey over here. Hanker to take a look at something fancy? I might be. Lucky this dude here. Now look here, I will not be held up for ridicule. The Tex. No, no, you're Tex. I'm Slim. Oh, I'm Tex. Well, what I was going to say was, this fella's got no whiskers. Whiskers? Yeah, that's right. I didn't even notice. Now, what about whiskers? Well, of course not. He wouldn't even be looking for it. A kaiyus would have to be just plain maverick to show up in bitter wells without a beard. Kaiyus, maverick. Now, here, here now. Looks kind of like a plucked chicken, don't he? Look, I don't see what's so important about having whiskers. Maybe you will, stranger. After a talk with the judge. Now, look here.  You call this saloon a court of law? Well, good enough for my grandpa. Good enough for me. Have me here. Head out that racket. But you have no right to bring me into, well, court. I haven't done anything. That's for the law to decide. Law, what law? Me, I'm the law. You. Ever hear of Judge Bean, stranger? Have I ever heard of... Did you say Bean? Leroy Bean, the law west of the peacock. Roy, Roy, not Leroy. And it's the law west of the peacock. Leroy, Bean, law west of the peacock for crying out loud. Well, you're... You're not Judge Bean. Of course not. My grandfather. And I've dedicated my life to upholding everything he stood for. Abner, will you quit fooling with that piano? Look, look. My name is Leslie Smythe. I inherited the McCreedy ranch. In fact, well, I own this town. Yeah, I know. I know. Sure you do. Abner, I warned you. Something wrong?  Oh, no, no. He was just pumping it. It's a player piano. Now, you're charged with being seen on the streets of bitter wells in an unseemly condition, namely with no whiskers. Now, how do you plead? I, uh... I don't feel too well. Oh, maybe you need a shot of red eye. Frank, er, Tex, I mean... I'm slim. Oh, yeah, I mean slim. Come over here. What is it? We figure out anything to use for a red eye. I told Maury... Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right there under the counter in the brown bottle. Maury makes some leftover coffee with medical alcohol. It's safe. All right, right. All right, here, stranger.  Have a shot of this. It'll fix you right up. Strung up? Did you say strung up? No, figure of speech. Oh, yes, yes. I get it now. I'm a little bit unstrung at the moment. He didn't say he was going to restring you. He said he was going to string you up. No, that ain't true, either. Because there ain't been no due process law yet, at least not speak of.  Of course you get a trial. Before a jury of my peers? Did you hear that? I heard it. What did you mean by that, stranger? Sounded like a crack to me. No, no, heavens know. I only meant that I should be judged by 12 men whose station in life is, well, equal to mine. Oh, well, that's not too much ask. Uh, take. Slim. Oh, yeah, slim, yeah. Go out and see if you can find 12 men whose station in life is just like the strangers here. Ah. You heard me? Find 12 men with no beards who are likely to get hung. That would be your station, wouldn't it, stranger? But you said a trial. You're getting it. This here's your trial. Now, drink up, before we have to hang you twice, once for criminal waste. You mean this stuff? Yeah, that's right.  Well, a little sherry.  Oh, indeed not. Well, here goes. Here, wait a minute. I wouldn't let that touch my teeth if I was you. Here goes. Poor fellow. Must have a weak constitution. They don't make him as strong as they used to. Well, that was quite strong enough. Thank you. I meant the men, not the red eye. You, uh... You don't seem to be drinking yours, John. Oh, I don't. Well, it's a little early in the morning for me. Now, how do you plead? Well, Judge... Judge Beane, your honor, I appeal to your sense of decency. After all, I am a stranger in town. Is that true, Tex? Slim. Oh, that's true, your honor. And I assure you that I'll grow a beard just as soon as I can. Far be it from me to go against the Morris of your community. And I assure you that I meant no harm. I don't suppose you did. I know your sense of fair play. Are you trying to say that you throw yourself on the mercy of this here-now court? Yes, your honor. All right, fair enough. 60 days on bread and water. Slim, take the prisoner to the stockade. I throw myself on the mercy of the court and you give me 60 days on bread and water. It's inhuman. 60 days, stranger. And if you haven't got a beard down to your collar when you get out of there, we'll hang you. Sorry, but the boys just can't ride up and down the streets all day. They're tired and the horses are tired. They just can't take it. Besides, there's not a blank cartridge left in town. Well, it doesn't look good. Looks like the town's got tame all at once. Guess we'd better execute part two of the plan, Jeannie. Yeah, well, I'm ready. If you don't mind my saying, so it's about time. Oh, that poor man. That poor man was going to dispose of just about everything we own. Remember that. It's not right for a man to inherit the life work of all the people in the town. Yeah, wait a minute. Now we've been through all that. Get the canteen, Jeannie. That's right here. Get going. Wish me luck. And remember, Eric, my name is Lily. Yeah, yeah. Howdy, stranger. Huh? Oh, hello, miss.  I'm going to get a good deal warmer, I'm afraid. You'd think a town this size would have an indoor jail, wouldn't you?  Water? Mm-hmm. I think we can get the canteen through the stakes. I think so, yes. Oh, that does it. Oh, that's good. You know, this is the first nice thing that's happened to me in Bitterwells. Have they been a little rough on you? Well, I thought they were going to hang me for a while. They still may. And the irony of the whole thing is, I own the town. It's part of the McCready Ranch, you know. Do you want this canteen back? Oh, no, you can keep it. I'm afraid I don't know your name. I'm Leslie Smythe. My name's Jean... I mean, Lily. Lily? Uh-huh. I, uh, I sing over the last chance. Oh, yes, yes. The, uh, courtroom. Tell me, what were you going to do with Bitterwells? Oh, that. I don't suppose it makes much difference now, anyway. Why not? Well, in 60 days, they're going to hang me. Look, supposing... well, just supposing they weren't. Well, I was going to sell the town back to the people who have it now. Hmm. I thought so. And a dollar a-holding, just to make it legal. Did you say a dollar? Well, certainly. I thought it might be wise for Rancher to have the good will of his neighbors. Look, Mr. Smythe, this all isn't real. Huh?  Wooly? Uh-huh. Well, about that, I don't know, but I had imagined the West would have been tamed a little since... Oh, trying to make up with my girl, huh? Oh, Eric. Keep out of this, Lily. But, look, Mr. Smythe... Lily, I'll deal with you later. Better play it straight, Lily. Better, Lil. All right, all right. But you'll just make matters worse. What's this all about? How could matters possibly be worse? I'm gonna drill this garment here and now. Stand aside. Put on our slim. If there's any shooting to be done here, I'll do it. But you see him, Judge. Make an eyes at my girl. Oh, your gu... I was not making eyes. She merely gave me a tin of water. Aha! And given him keepsakes. Oh, will you two listen to me for just a minute? Yeah, later on. Now, will you please keep out of this? Now, where was I? Oh, yeah. Like I said, I'm gonna drill this garment here and now. Fronto. Yeah, but the... Well, the coat of the west. But not armed, you know. And like I said, I'll do all the shooting. Besides, he's right.  But Lily was making eyes at him. I thought better of you than this, Lily. Nuts. She wasn't making eyes at me. All she did was... You keep quiet, you. Lily, one back to work.  I want to talk to this here low-down barman. But he was... But he was... It's my ruling. All right. I reckon... You too, Lily. For your honor, I was not making eyes at Miss Lily. And all she was doing for me was to give me a little water. I assured... Yeah, I know, I know, I know. Now, listen to me. If Tex shoots you... Slim. Oh, yeah. Excuse me, I meant slim. If he shoots you, I'll have to hang him. And I don't want to do that because he's the best sheriff I ever had.  No. The only way out that I can see is to turn you loose. Turn me loose? That's what I said. But if you ever come within 100 miles of Bitterwells again, well, you'll be at your own risk. Do you understand that? Yes, I understand. Now, I'm unlocking this here stockade gate. There'll be a train through here in about an hour. Station master will flag it for you. And I'll keep what she gave away from the depot when you're gone. Well, come on. Oh, wait. What about Miss Lily? Won't this be a, well, a blot on her escutcheon? How's that again? Her reputation. Oh. If I run, isn't it an admission of guilt? Don't you worry about her. Now, come on. No. No? I mean, I don't think I can. I would leave her, as you say, holding the bag. I'm sorry, judge. I just can't do it. The honor of a lady is at stake. I just can't go. Oh, not you, Lily. Here, you mean... I mean Jeannie. I heard what he said, and it was the most beautiful thing I ever heard. As far as I'm concerned, it's all off. See, what's all off? What are you talking about? What happened? What's wrong? Oh, you're wrong. That's what's wrong. Somebody give me a hanky. You got a clean hanky, Eric? Eric? Who's Eric? Oh, no. Me neither. You're the lady you're a hanky of, so we can understand what you're talking about. Of course. Here you are, Miss Lily. Jeannie. Who talked? She did. Who talked about what? Oh, it was all a hoax, Mr. Smythe. You mean, you mean all this, that everybody into the horses, the shooting, or the piano playing? Yeah, we found it. Everybody was. We heard your interview on the radio, and we were just trying to protect the property. We heard you was going to dispose of it. And you know how, Mr. Mayor, he was going to sell it back to us. Well, who else? And it would have cost us just a dollar each, just enough to make it a legal transaction.  This thing was all staged. That was Frontier Week anyway. Oh, yes. Yes, my solicitor did mention something about that. Well, I guess maybe you've got a right to be one now. No, I don't think so. After all, we will be neighbors, you know. Shall we retire to the courtroom for a lemonade? Oh, you know something. You're really quite a gentleman, Mr. Smythe. Yes, sir, and I'll say so, too. Well, thank you. But in the future... Of course, it doesn't really bother me now that I know it wasn't real. But in the future, would you people try to protect our property? Well, I guess maybe you've got a right to be one now. No, I don't think so. After all, we will be neighbors, you know.  This is Walter Brennan again. We might all ask ourselves from time to time the question, who am I? Oh, I don't mean American or French or Dutch or even narrowing it down to a doctor or a banker or a housewife. I mean more basically, who am I to the one who made me? Am I the one who was born blind but who recognizes the voice of God in every sound that I hear? Am I the one who couldn't finish high school but who has labored long hours to support my wife and children? Am I the one whose name never appeared in the public registry but whose charity is known to everyone in the community? Who am I? I am the product of God's hand, the perfect reproduction of what He wanted me to be. I might not be just what I would want myself to be, perfect in every respect, but physically I am exactly as God wanted me to be. And once I have received this gift of life from God's hand, then I must use it and develop it so that I can give myself back to Him just the way He wants me back. My work is cut out for me by my state in life and my field of employment. What kind of work I do is incidental but how I do it is the main thing. If my best and an honest day's work, whether it be at a desk, at a lathe or at the bedside of the sick, then I am living part of my life as I should. The other part, my state in life, will usually be determined by the position I hold in the family, whether father, mother or child.  Now, whether I am working to support a family or working to unite a family, I must always remember that I am not alone in this. The God who made me knows who I am and cares who I am and He will help me if I ask through prayer and especially through family prayer. Remembering that the family that prays together stays together.  From Hollywood Family Theater has brought you transcribed West of the Pekas, starring Peter Lofford. Walter Brennan was your host.

My name is Shah Abbas, I am in Imam Hussain TV, sitting right close to Abu Fazl Abbas Shrine where I can see while we're recording this show and we've got Imam Hussain on the left hand side. So today is the 11th of November that we're recording this show and it's a day after It's a very humbling experience to be on the show and presenting the name of Imam Hussain So today's show is quite unique. We're going to be talking about what has Imam Hussain inspired, who has Imam Hussain inspired and a number of organisations have been inspired by Imam Hussain and one of the organisations that has been inspired is an organisation that goes by the name of Who Is Hussain? It's an interesting organisation which I'm part of as well and we have our guest Malahad and she's basically from America. So Malahad we're going to start by introducing yourself. Tell me about yourself, tell me a little bit about you and what brings you to Karbala today? Well I came here for the walk. I walked from Egypt to Karbala to pledge my allegiance to show my devotion to Hussain. I'm a mother of four, I do a lot of social work and volunteer work in the school and that's pretty much how I keep myself busy. You do volunteer for the organisation which is Who Is Hussain? So what drives you to volunteer for this organisation? It is a need to want to present him to the world. There are billions of people out there, non-Muslims who are not aware of him, of his personality, of his legacy, of the values that he stood for and just like there are so many other people that people love, Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa, who are loved, admired, respected. Regardless of culture and religion, we feel that Hussain needs to be up there, admired and respected and known for what he was. Absolutely, I think one of the things what Imam Hussain has done is inspired millions. Let's take this walk for example. I think people all over the world, I don't have the exact numbers right now and there was media going, some said about 18 million, 20 million, some said it was on a lease of 25, 30 million. I don't have the exact stats because it's literally a day after a buy-in, inshallah, when the stats gets released out, we should have a better idea. This man, Hussain Ibn Ali, 1400 years ago, made a stand against injustice. He said no. He made a stand against oppression. He said no. He made a stand for equality. He made a stand for the people needy. His lively principles is what Hussain is about to showcase the world that the principles that Imam Hussain goes by. And the lively principles, so the aims and objectives of the organisation itself, which we're going to talk about, is more about doing the right actions, doing the lively principles where Imam Hussain has done, inspiring the people around them. And also, the other objective as well is why doing that is to promote the name of Imam Hussain al-Islam to the wider audience that hasn't been aware of. So today we are on the show. The objective for today's show is for recruitment, for volunteers, and recruitment in regards to volunteers in your local country, your local cities. And also, if you are looking to donate, please feel free to donate. And also, if you want to find out more, our website will be on that. Charlotte is whoishussain.org. So you are from America. You're from Texas. So tell me more about what the Texas Hussain team does. Texas does annual blood drives, annual homeless dinners. We have gotten together with a lot of other bigger nonprofit organisations and we work with them during their annual events. Our past big independent individual event was together for Texas, where after Hurricane Harvey, there was a drastic need for help all across the board and our volunteers got together. Even on Eid day, we went there and spent hours sorting donations, taking donations over. And we did set up a GoFundMe page with a go of $10,000 which we exceeded. And we took the check to Houston in person to deliver to the mayor. We happened to have three minutes to speak on the city hall floor. I think that's a video that went viral. It did. And we spoke from the council members and the mayor and it was very well received by public in general. So what was the atmosphere like once that was done? What was the atmosphere like within our community, within the Shia community? What was the atmosphere like within the non-Shia community? I think Hussain just brings everybody together. When we start doing community work in his name, he is so inspiring. His personality just draws you to do more, to give more, to do as much of yourself as you can.  And it makes everybody come together in his name and own the organization, own the imperative, the mission. And it made our spirit soar to see what it... I think the Shia community, the wider Shia community in the world, they have kept Imam Hussain and Islam for ourselves. And we know of Imam Hussain and Islam in the mosques, in the Imam Bargaz or in our local madrasas. What he aims objective of who is Hussain as our organization itself is to get that beautiful man, the beautiful things that he has done in his life and understands that he's made to the wider world, is to share him and making Hussain. He is a universal figure and people don't see that. I'm talking about non-Muslims who don't see that. And this organization he aims is to inspire the communities, the people around them to do the right thing, which is the blood donations, which is feeding the homeless, which is making a stand when the hurricane that hit in Texas. Imam Hussain and Islam has inspired people to do that. What Hussain wants to do is when things like that happen, Imam Hussain is in off-front and taking actions to do it while doing that, telling the world about Imam Hussain. So my dear brothers and sisters, if you're watching this and you want to get involved with this organization, you want to know more, please visit our website, which is whoishussain.org and you can email us, the email is world-w-o-r-l-d at whoishussain.org So please get involved. So we've got about 80 different rips all over the world. So we are in America, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, UK, London, UK we've got in London, we've got in Africa, we've got states in Africa, we've got in Nairobi, South Africa, you can name it, India and Pakistan. We're going to go into some stats in a minute. We're going to talk about the bigger things that we have done. But I want to come back to yourself, Malahat, again. So do you think there's a need for Hussain in this world? Most definitely, most definitely.  He gives people hope. He gives people hope, he gives people a reason to continue and to give back, because I think he brings out compassion in us. Because when you see what he did for others, not just for himself, it makes you want to give back as well. I think one of the things as well is when we have young people that are probably in the western world or people ask you, why are you going to Iraq to do the Najaf to Karbala walk? People are not used to the idea of walking from Najaf to Karbala and people don't know what is Arbaeen. People don't know why we're doing what we're doing. And there are people out there, including myself, that we struggle to explain that to the non-Muslims. So we don't know how to tell an individual who doesn't know or understand about what we're doing. So communication is quite key. So this is something that Hussain has been doing for a while now and, inshallah, hope to be good at this, is communicating the name of Muhammad SAW in a dialect, in a way that people can understand it. For example, in London, there's food drives that happen in Charing Cross, where they've been doing it for the last couple of years now. And the objective for the food drives in London is to, number one, to feed the needy. That's why Imam Hussain said to Jews, look after the people and need his father to look after the orphans. And again, grandfather, Prophet Muhammad as well. Hussain in London have been feeding the homeless for the last couple of years on a weekly basis. They're doing CV workshops as well, which is good. It's not about just feeding the people. As you said earlier on, hope, giving people that hope. It is to just step up when you're needed, regardless of who needs it. If you look at Flint, Michigan, when they had a water issue, the representatives there just purchased as many crates of water as they could, and they actually just put it in the car and they drove over. And then, of course, online they did fundraising, which received, I don't know, a very good amount of money for water to be delivered to people of Flint. It is regardless of where they are, if they know Hussain or not even. The point is not to make sure to only help those who know Hussain or who admire Hussain already. The point is to bring him to those who do not know him and inspire them with the knowledge and the values that he brings. No, absolutely. That's the most important part itself. The other part itself is getting the whole communities involved. So, Hussain, I think the thing I like about Hussain personally is it's not just a Shia organization. It's not. It's not. Hussain doesn't say Shia is Muslim or it's not. It's universal. Hussain is a humanitarian organization. It is an organization that has been established purely A, number one main objective is to do good, to feed the people in need, feed the homeless, do medical procedures on people that in needs. For example, we've had people from Iraq that got flown into India for the heart surgeries. We've had people in Lebanon donating blood so in Lebanon they've broken records or getting people to donate blood. We've had Michigan as you said earlier on. We've had Texas as you said earlier on. We've got in India. They've fed about over 100,000 people. Massive scales. Absolutely humbling. It brings communities together. It does. The aims of the organization itself is once we are presenting them on Hussain, we're working with Muslims and non-Muslims alike together and we're not telling the people that it's an Islamic organization. It's not. Mama Sain was not just for Muslims. It was not just for Shia Muslims. Mama Sain, Hussain Ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad was for everyone. He was a universal figure. People know, as you said, Mandela, Malcolm X, Gandhi. People know that. But the person inspiring these figures was Hussain Ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad. Nelson Mandela writes that when he was in the prison, after 20 odd years, he was close to giving up. And when the government was asking him to sign all the papers, and then he thought of Hussain and how he did not give up. And he drew strength from that and he continued and we all know what happened in history. I think the best part, instead of having Hussain, is inspires the political figures in the history, has inspired. But also the most important is inspire the volunteers, the young people, inspires the youth to getting them involved. I'm talking about when I was 16, 17, I would just go for video games in my house. And you said you've got children yourself. When I was young, I used to go to video games, spend my time in the house and not really do much. But having Hussain around where I can go out and serve the needy. Yes, I'm serving the needy, but also I'm having fun. I'm enjoying my time by doing the right things of a little bit. I'll tell you a story. When we had last year, when we were focusing on the refugees, because of so much political stigma around it, we did that whole Ramadan was focused on refugees. And in Texas, there are a lot of Muslim refugees. So we did an Eftar dinner and then we also did goody bags for the children. We made around 250 goody bags. And when we arrived there with all of our materials to make the goody bags, we didn't have too many volunteers showing up. And it was actually at our center after hours. And there was a seminar session going on and the kids, it was all 12 and under. No way. Who ended up coming. And at first we were wondering, are they going to sneak out some candy out of there? Or you know, like keep an eye on them. But they were tirelessly, the session was over, their mothers were waiting saying be done, be done. And those 20-odd kids made those 250 bags. Amazing, amazing. They were so excited. The spirit of giving at that time, they were infused with that spirit of giving. Amazing, amazing. It's inspiring the people. It's inspiring the world. And that's what Hussein Ibn Ali has done. The bigger picture itself is just to do that in a maximum capacity and be more efficient as we can. Right now, as I was saying, we're in 80 different cities. But we are looking to expand. And hence the reason why Hussein decided to come to the lands of Karbala. A couple of days ago, we had a stall on the way from Najaf to Karbala. The idea for the stall was of those people that are walking from making their spiritual journey from one city to another, the holy lands of Karbala, we want to speak to those people and say, hey, would you be interested in finding out more about Hussein? Would you like to volunteer? We met individuals. I'll share a story that I met. I met an individual from Indonesia. And he came. He said, I saw a picture of Hussein on Instagram. I liked it. And I said, I want to go. And I just left my group early. I paced myself so I can come and talk to you guys. And so I know how to volunteer. And he had to make that journey. And well, then he said, I am looking forward for the email. Please send us. That is so nice. That's humbling. It is. Humbles the organization. And then when people around them are inspired by me, a man called Hussein bin Ali. So my dear brothers and sisters, again, I urge, if you're not part of this organization and you would like to be part of it, please visit our website, which is whoishussein.org. You can email us, which is worldatwhoishussein.org. So we're going to talk about a couple more things before we wrap up. One of the things that I want to talk about was the events that happened, the bigger events that caught the media's attention. Now, unfortunately, the world that we live in, the media reflects on the bad things about it. And again, they don't see the good qualities of what the people want to do. So Hussein London, they did an event in London feeding the homeless, CV workshop, and also cutting the homeless people's hair. So the aim of the event was to restore honour and hope and humanity for the forgotten ones of London. Give them dignity. I'll share myself. If I get a haircut and taking a shower after a haircut, I feel so fresh. I feel so good about myself. And that's the feeling we wanted to give the volunteers to the homeless people. They did it. And they recorded a Facebook live and that video over multiple streams went over 10 million views. So in theory, 10 million people have seen the name of Mam Hussein Hussein, which is Hussein organization itself. That is a huge step for people again. Michigan, again, you said earlier on as they did donated water. They got mentioned in press. They got mentioned in the media. So it is the thing that you did yourself. You got a lot of media attention, didn't you? We did. Well, on social media, at least, on Facebook, we did get a lot of attention. After we set up our GoFundMe page, we set up a goal of $10,000, exceeded it, and went and delivered it. And I think the video made rounds on WhatsApp as well, the uploaded video. But on Facebook as well, a lot of people shared it, mentioned it, tagged who is Hussein. It did receive a lot of attention. And I think I hope it touched a lot of people. It did. It touched me. It inspired me. Do you know what that reminds me of? I think it deserves to know this. It reminds me 1400 years ago, after the day of Ashura, when Mam Hussein's sister, ladies, then made that exact similar speech in the present of Yazid, the dictator of that time. And she said, do you know who Hussein is? Do you really know who Hussein is? And do you know who Prophet Muhammad is? And this is my religion. So I think you inspire the world. You inspired us here. Absolutely. So I think, thank you very much for doing what you did. Please, can speak consistent. It's been an honor. And doing what you've been doing for a long perspective itself. And the future for who's Hussein itself is yourself. You are the future. We've done things so far. So let me give you some stats of what Hussein has achieved. So number one, we've collected over 2,000 units for blood. So that saves about 6,000 people's lives. That's incredible. And also, we've fed about over 200,000 people. Now, I'm not just telling you the number is because we need to show these numbers. It's an act of kindness. It's an act of charity. It's called Sadaqa Jaria. So once we share these achievements that Hussein has done, it should inspire you. It should inspire the world who's watching this to see how can you be part of this movement? How could you get involved? You should get involved. Why you should get involved? Number one, is the man Hussein Abinani made us standing as injustice. Made us stand for equality. Made us stand for self-giving, self-righteousness. And every day, we always say, I wish I was there on the lands of Karbala 1400 years ago. But guess what? You are there right now. So you are here right now. Play your part. You get involved. Visit our website, whoishussein.org. Email us world at whoishussein.org. Now, before we wrap it up, we do want to take some time to thank you for coming on the show. And thank Imam Hussein TV as well for having us on. It humbles us to be on the show when we have... Do you want to add something? I just want people to know that if you want to step up and do something, it does not have to be on a grand scale. We started very small. It's a small grassroots movement. If you just bake cookies and take them to the park and pass them out as an act of kindness inspired by Hussein, that is a big step in itself. It does not have to be something that involves a lot of money or even a lot of time or a lot of people. It can be just you and your family doing your bit. Absolutely.  It's the ripple effect. You drop a water in a pebble. The waves come across. The idea is, my dear brothers and sisters, make that first stand. Make that first step, just aware Hussein had been elated. Thank you for coming over. Thank you. And God bless you. And if you would like to get involved again, the website is whoishussein.org and the email address is worldatwhoishussein.org. Thank you very much from Mahmousen TV. Stay tuned. Good office.


There are countless ancient ruins found throughout Sri Lanka, which are all indicative of a lost technology, and thus a lost civilization having once been responsible for their creation. One of the most striking of these, being the Sagiria Mountain, an ancient stronghold made atop natural plateau, a sanctuary far away from the troubles that would have presumably been occurring below. But one of the most astonishing relics found within this ancient land is a rather well-hidden one. Although the water reservoir built into the Sagiria site could offer one a subtle initial clue as to their existence, one would have to investigate the surrounding environment very carefully or be given local knowledge to ever find our next ancient anomaly in question. Hidden close by to the ancient mountainous stronghold, and now almost completely submerged into the surrounding landscape, Gargantuan Ancient Water Reservoirs, first documented by a Mr. Tenant from the UK and noted upon by William R. Corlis within one of his many volumes regarding lost civilization. Describing enormous water tanks found with the aid of the locals all completely aligned with equally cut square blocks. One of the tanks, which the locals knew by the name Petheriacorn, has since been measured to be around 7 miles in length, 300 feet broad, with 60-foot-high earthworks along its biggest embankments. They are largely believed to have been constructed to gain complete control and subsequent mastery of irrigation throughout an impressive span of land. We approached an expert engineer to find out just what sort of feet these giant tanks would be. We received back an estimated price of around $4 million to merely construct the largest sections of the earthworks. They were undoubtedly an unimaginably large undertaking, one which we believe was beyond the capabilities of any ancient group known to modern history. Perhaps the sheer enormity of the undertaking, along with the fact that they would have been far easier to conceal than that of the Great Pyramids, for example, is a possible motive as to why there isn't more known about these marvelous groundworks, or why there is very little documented study and why any that has been done was by independent historians. But regardless, we find these incredible gigantic hidden ruins highly compelling.
