Hey everyone, and welcome to the Women in Red presentation at Wikimania 2021. I'm one of your moderators, Rosie Stephenson-Goodnight, one of the co-founders of Women in Red. And with me today is the other co-founder, Roger Bamken. Hello, welcome. I'm gonna be talking about, can Wikipedia actually rid its content gender gap? And to explain that better, let's give you an introduction to who and what Women in Red the community is all about. Next slide, please. So we're gonna talk about its history. We'll give you a little bit of smack of data and metrics. We'll tell you about our partners, the different editathons we can do, social media and even our GemTech Award. And then we're gonna introduce you to our panelists, two panels. And if we have time at the end, we'll give you a Q and A. I'm hopeful that someone has pasted a link to our etherpad so that you can just click on it versus seeing it here on the slide deck. So let's give it a go. Next slide, please. So for those people who haven't used Wikipedia, and I think most people have, on the front page, you'll find a thing called, Did You Know? Which is an introduction to brand new articles on Wikipedia. And that's really where Rosie and I met. We were editing away for years and years and years, introducing brand new articles, putting new articles up there. And when I, in 2015, I decided to write a presentation for Wikimania, because I thought it'd be a nice idea to go to Mexico. And I wrote a title for that. I won't tell you what the title was, but it created quite a brouhaha with people going, I'm not too sure about this, but it caused a lot of fuss, which was a good thing really, because it pulled people in.  And there were some volunteers, but I knew Rosie from a long time from editing. And although we'd never actually zoomed or met, I wrote a note on her talk page saying, the door is open. And Rosie came in through the door and we ended up writing a presentation together to Mexico. You can see a picture there of Rosie and I in Mexico. As you can see, I didn't make it, but I was there on the screen in my first virtual appearance. Women in Red was launched on with a title of Project XX. It was later renamed after a page by T-Antony. We are now one of the largest Wiki projects in Wikipedia. We have over 30 sister projects in different languages. And we have people in different countries, like Nigeria, et cetera. And one of the most important things we have is that we measure the percentage of women on Wikipedia, which we do with Wikidata. Can we tell us a bit more? Rosie, can you tell me a bit more? Yeah, thanks for this slide. A lot of numbers, right? You can say that we use things like bots to measure lots of things. We know that the daily average of articles created within the scope of Women in Red was 70 in our first year, 2015, and that this year, 2021, at least through the end of June, we're averaging 78 articles a day. We have the subject of who's leading this community. The answer is no one. We're very flat. Everyone and anybody coordinates the work that we do at Women in Red. We have 517 official members, but we have more than 1,100 people subscribed to our monthly newsletter to see what events are we going to be doing the following month. We have a lot of enthusiasts. More than 10,000 Twitter followers are following the work of Women in Red, where we profile the biographies and other articles created by people who participate in the work. There are nine managers of our different social media platforms, and Roger will tell us a little bit more about that soon. And there are, put my glasses on. There are 874 unique editors to the Women in Red Talk page. The Women in Red Talk page, which was created in 2015 when we launched Women in Red, there have been 23,000 unique comments made on that talk page, and not a word of that has been about harassment or anything uncivil. There have been about 4,000 page views of that talk page in the last 30 days alone. Did you know the Women in Red has created more than 800 red lists? These are lists of notable women who don't have a Wikipedia article. We slice and dice them in different ways by occupation, by country, by first name, by surname, by what decade they were born and decade they died. Women in Red editors have uploaded more than 19,000 images of women to Wiki Commons. And what's our budget for all of this? Some of you are wondering, well, you can see right there, lower right-hand corner, we've done this on a budget of zero. We've never had a grant. Everything we've done has been done by volunteers and no money has changed hands, no money has been paid, no grant from the Wikimedia Foundation, nothing. We've just done this as volunteers. So on to Roger at the next slide, please. Well, no money, but we have had lots of partners. As you can read, we've got the, we've had people at the Guggenheim and the Smithsonian, even the UN and UNICEF, BBC, Cambridge University. The UN was particularly impressive because Rosie went to New York and got to talk in one of the UN buildings, which was rather nice. One of the best partners we had was the BBC. They have a yearly 100 women contest where they list 100 notable women and we were called in and we were linking up to BBC offices around the globe. And there I got to train some people and I got to train Helen Pankhurst. Yes, that's the correct surname. She's the great-great-granddaughter of Emmeline. I got to train the lady who owns a million images who are not uncreated commons. And I got to meet the lady called Carol Black, Dame Carol Black, who was a dame, a bit like Rosie. Dame Caroline Black. And in the bottom left-hand corner there, you can see Cambridge University. The gates where the women were... First women who graduated from Cambridge University. But they weren't given degrees. They weren't given degrees until about 1940, even though some of them came top of all the exams. In the middle is a lady called... On the right is Emmeline Pankhurst in the black and white photograph. On the left is a lady called Annie Canney. And in the middle is a lady called Mary Blathwaite, who was discovered by Ewan at Edinburgh University. We wrote her biography and discovered that she owned a garden. And in that garden, there was 50 memorials to different suffragettes. And we wrote about all those 50 suffragettes. The memorials were all plowed up in the 1960s, which is a very sad event. And on the right, you can see Penny and Rosie, who I finally met at UCI, because somebody paid us some money in order to be able to pay some of our travel towards this meeting. And in the bottom right-hand corner, you'll see the women in red barn stars. We've only ever given four of those out. And all of those four participants are part of this talk. So if we just go on, we've also done edit-a-thons online. And if Rosie can maybe tell us a bit about that. We have. For the most part, all of the women in red edit-a-thons are virtual. They are online events, starting with our first one in September, 2015, that we did with a partner, the Smithsonian, regarding Asian Pacific American women. That event lasted for three days. It was our inaugural event. And we found that our members and enthusiasts really liked that. So we started doing more and more. And now we've done 207 edit-a-thons virtual or online. Some of them are topical. For example, Olympic and Paralympic Women is a three-month event. Women in healthcare, we did once the COVID pandemic started, Visible Wiki Women is a photography or image upload event. Other events or annual events, we do women artists every February for the entire month. We write about women artists. And every September in honor of Ada Lovelace Day, we cover women scientists. And every September it's women writers. And every August, like the month we're in now, we cover indigenous women. We now do about six events per month, some of them month long, some three months long, some are year long. Year long initiative for 2021, it's women's rights. And maybe we'll hear a little bit more about that from one of our panelists, Susan. Next slide, please. Well, I'm conscious of the time. And I'm just thinking that I should tell you very quickly about the social media. One of the important things about the Wiki project that we have is that we've got social media. We have a Facebook page. We have an Instagram page. We have a Pinterest page. And we have a Twitter page. Penny will be telling you more about the Pinterest page later. The Twitter is possibly our leading outlet. 27,000 tweets, 10,000 followers. And it's least recently been blue links by one of the account managers. We've also got... We haven't got a website, but we do have a link to our pages on Wikipedia, on the Wiki project, which show all of those red lists, which Rosie was talking about. We are short of about a million biographies, but we have hundreds of thousands of women who are already notable, who need articles writing about them. And that's one of the jobs that we are obviously trying to do. Have we won any awards? Have we won any awards, Rosie? Women in Red was founded in July, 2015. And about a year later in August, September, we were notified that we were shortlisted for the UNITU GemTech Award in category for what we are doing to promote women, both as online editors and women represented in content. Next slide, please. Let's now bring on our first panel. So if the magic of those who are working backstage can help us out, let's bring on Antique Ait, so Kate and Brenda Waller and Camilia Boban and Hannah, otherwise known as Hickriot and Susan W, please. We can now dispense with viewing the slide deck and just chat a little bit with our panelists. And we're gonna go ahead and get started with Susan and I'm gonna pose this question to you, Susan. Susan, you've been a part of Women in Red since the very start, you were right there with us. And I wonder what it is that motivates you? What got you started and kind of, what are you working on now? Well, what got me started was I'm a historian, I have studied women's history for years and I find it tragic that women have been left out of history. And so I first started editing articles, interestingly enough, since this is Indigenous Women Month, on Indigenous people and I found it really interesting. And so then I discovered Brenda, my mentor, and she introduced me to other editors, including Rosie. And I basically focused on women's rights, historical women, I'm not really, I don't do much on women who are living, I work on those historical people who have been left out of this historic record and the events that they were involved in. Right now I'm working on a whole series of articles I started in December, I probably won't finish until 2023, about the problem of women losing their nationality worldwide. I have yet to find a country and I have now written 90 plus articles where women throughout the world were not deprived of their nationality because they married. Susan, thanks for that. And thanks for mentioning Brenda, who you connected with very early on. I met Brenda, I think back in 2014 and she was a rock star even back then. I had been someone who had reviewed one of her articles that reached good article status and since then I know she's also written featured articles which is the highest quality rating on Wikipedia for any amount of the articles that are written. So Brenda, can you tell us a little bit about what got you started with women in red and what are you working on now? Brenda, you're muted. Okay. I started to work on women's articles probably from the get-go. I have an interest in horses and I started working on articles about various horsewomen of different kinds. I also am just a historian. I'm from Montana. I also write about people in places where I live and I think the way I got the most active in women in red became defending articles about women at Articles for Deletion because what was happening was that people were saying they're not notable, we don't have sources. A lot of the things that Susan spoke of that a lot of women were described as the wife of so-and-so and it became a real challenge to work on explaining the notability criteria and that Wikipedia should not be perpetuating what has been the difficulties in the past. So I think that I spent a lot of time dealing with the community as a whole and trying to explain, no, we're not dumbing down the articles, we're not reducing our criteria. We have to acknowledge that we have to look at resource material differently than we normally do. So that's sort of a brief synopsis of what I've done. Thanks for sharing that, Brenda. I remember also in 2016, walking the streets of Esinolario, Italy during Wikimania 2016 and I was hungry and I wanted a pizza and I got myself a pizza and I sat down at a table at the same time, somebody else sat down at the same table, lo and behold, it was Camelia and that's how we met. We started talking about Wikipedia, what we're doing. So Camelia, tell us a little bit about you and how you got involved with women in red in general but the Italian version in particular because women in red is a 32 language project. So can you tell us about that? Yes, hello everybody. I'm a Wikipedia since 27. So I got in contact with women in red and we do rosies during our pizza time and also we've seen me during my first, was my first Wikimania in Esinolario and I participated to all the talks, labs, sessions about the data gap and I was really impressed by the numbers because I didn't realize how deep this gap is. So in fact, in Wikipedia, some work was done about women biographies but it was not enough. But so we needed some work, continuous specific focus on this and a work, a structural work. So I decided to create a project dedicated to diversity in Italian Wikipedia and this way Wikidone was born on August 4th in 2016. And so this experience about women in red was our starting point on our activity. Thanks so much, Camelia, for telling us about that. Kate, I am curious about how you got started and particularly what you're working on, which I believe is notable Irish women, notable women in engineering, notable women with fantasy and fiction writers.  Kate, we can't hear you. You seem to be frozen, is that the right word? Kate seems to have dropped off technical difficulties. Excuse us all, this is gonna happen, right? So now I'm gonna ask a question of Hannah. Hannah, you are one of the last people on this panel that I kind of got to know. I know that you're an administrator on Wikipedia and that you do a whole lot of stuff regarding content gender gap. Show us in on that. Yeah, so I started editing Wikipedia after I have a lovely day. I saw a sign up my university and I was like, oh, that's so interesting. I never thought about the people behind Wikipedia. So I started looking up my professors and none of them had articles although the men in their department did. So that really started to get me frustrated, especially as someone who wants to go into academics that really frustrated me. I've written numerous articles about people who are pioneers. In fact, when I brought them to Did You Know, the people who were reviewing it were like, how did she never have an article before? So the thing that keeps me going, I guess, is the anger that they're missing and that I feel like they shouldn't be missing. I need to fail it. It feels like a little sense of duty for myself. And being an administrator does help as well because I get to oversee deletions, expedite deletions and AFDs and I can add my two cents or I can be like, no, they're trying to target her because she's a woman. As well, something else that you didn't mention is I am one of the managers of a Twitter account that helped us get to 10,000, which is great, very exciting. Yeah, I was very happy. So yes, my focus is female academics and female in sports because there is a blatant gender determination in women in sports specifically. For example, I edit hockey. If you play one game at the National Hockey League, you get an article. Women can only play in the Olympics and that's the only way a female hockey player will get an article if you play in the Olympics. So that's not fair. Thanks, Hannah. Thanks so much for that, Hannah. And now I think we're going back to Kate. Kate. Okay, so quick one. It was 2016, there was an Irish rebellion being commemorated nationally. And the 1916 Easter Rising and everyone was talking about all the men who'd been involved. And there were quite a lot of women involved in that rising. And I started to write about them. And then I started to wonder how I could create lists, red lists. And then I discovered women in red and the joy of all of their red lists. But very few were Irish. So my goal was to capture Irish women. The first woman stockbroker anywhere in the world. A trailblazing Irish particle physicist. The first women to be awarded degrees in either Ireland or the UK. And of course, from there, I ran into engineers from Armenia and Iraq and writers from Nigeria and Jamaica and basically my goal is Irish women. Women in rebellions. Women in sciences and engineering. Thanks for that, Kate. I'm gonna now pose a question to all of our panelists. And if you can give us an answer in no more than three or four sentences. Here is the question. Question is we have a lot of viewers out there who are currently maybe readers of Wikipedia, but not necessarily editors. Those who want to be an editor and work on the content gender gap, do you have a word of wisdom for them, what they can do to kind of join in that work in three to four sentences? Let's start again with you, Susan. Well, I think one of the most important things is just making sure that you integrate your articles into the encyclopedia. If you write about a woman, add her to her partner, see that male or female article if they have one. Check on the side of Wikipedia, there's a thing that says tools and it says what links here? Check that. See if it's linked to other article. As you're writing, be mindful. I remember years ago, I was doing an article on a women's conference and it was in 1914 and there were lots and lots and lots of sources about how these women after this conference went around worldwide and talked to world leaders and got them to commit during war to participate in an international mediating body which became the League of Nations. I went to the League of Nations article, it did not mention one coyote about the women's war, nothing about any woman involved in the League of Nations. So I added that information. Be mindful that women have been left out of history but if we can add them back to the historical events that they participated in, it benefits everyone. No little girl should grow up thinking that women did not participate, they did. Susan, thank you, that is just awesome and I hope it inspires others to come and join in the work that we're doing. Now we're gonna move on to our second panel. So if the backstage folks could please send backstage everyone but Roger and me and bring up the slide deck again, Roger, take it away. All right, so I'm going to introduce you to Mr. Ewan McAndreve who's from Edinburgh University. I'm gonna introduce you to Jess Wade who's from Imperial in near London. And I'm gonna introduce you to Carol Ann who's from Manchester in the UK. Penny who's from near Los Angeles and Lucy who also lives in Leeds which again is the one in the UK. Firstly, I'm gonna talk to Ewan. Ewan has run, Ewan you've run about 50 in-person editathons which I think is way out in front of anybody else for women in red editathons. But can you tell us anything about interesting about little projects you've done at the time? Yeah, hello everyone. 51 monthly workshops dedicated to women in red but 114 editathons in total. Can we see the slide please? What we were all about celebrating and making women more visible on Wikipedia and to recruit more female editors to the project and about 69% of our editors have been women. We thought it was a way to do more particularly where Edinburgh and Scotland had a rich story to tell but we've also hosted a student internship. There she is, Emma Carroll, the witch finder general. And she's a student at the university who hunted down coordinates for all the historical place names mentioned in the university survey of Scottish witchcraft database where at project completion the places of residence of over 3,000 men and women accused of witchcraft in Scotland, 85% of them women are now geolocated on a wiki data driven map. So anyone can find out about the accusations of witchcraft that happened nearby to them in Scotland. And the idea is that it highlights the scale and intensity of the Scottish witch hunts to a modern audience as well as localizing and bringing to life these individual stories of the women who were persecuted. But additionally, women in red the editors at the university created pages for over 20 of the notable women accused of witchcraft including Lilius Adie who's the only accused witch in Scotland we can put a face to thanks to forensic artists at the university of Dundee digitally reconstructing her face and then kindly sharing this to her new Wikipedia page. So the projects gained coverage both in international and national news media but I think it's important that it's also been covered in local news outlets and stimulating interest in these stories. And Emma's presented on her work at the second remembering Scotland's accused witch's conference last November. And it's just part of a grassroots movement to memorialize what happened to these women. And the wiki data map is seen as an important resource in furthering this aim and uncovering more of these women's stories. I can't believe that number 3000. I live in Scotland. I couldn't believe that there were about 30 or 40 witches within walking distance of where I live. Not only that with Ewan's work that work is gonna be there forever. And people like Jess have been writing articles about leading women scientists not just one, not just a hundred but more than a thousand articles which she writes about articles about one a day. Jess, why? I've been working on programs to improve gender balance in science and engineering since I started my undergraduate degree in physics at Imperial. And I think that kind of in-person outreach campaigns and initiatives have a huge capacity for exciting young people about science. But I wanted to reach a bigger audience. Public perceptions of science and engineering are shaped by what people are taught at school who's on television, who's on radio what they learn from social media. And that's how I landed on Wikipedia. A chance to increase public trust in science transform public perception of who scientists are help teachers incorporate scientists in particularly women scientists into their curriculums and their textbooks and to honor and celebrate the contributions of scientists from historically marginalized groups. So since the beginning of 2018 I've spent every single evening writing these biographies whether I'm in a lab, whether I'm away at a conference whether I'm sitting in the comfort and safety of my own kitchen. And I've just surpassed 1400 and it's been a complete thrill to document these stories. But by far my favorite page ever is Dr. Gladys West. She is a mathematician who was born in 1930. She studied maths there historically Black College and University in Virginia. She then worked as a maths teacher for a little while before joining the US government to do the early calculations for GPS technology. And when I started Gladys West page there was very little about her online. There was a kind of short clip on a news website. And since then she's been nominated by the BBC as one of the most influential women in the world. She's been inducted into the US Air Force Hall of Fame. She's finished her PhD by distance learning at the age of 91.  And most excitingly just last month, so June 2021 she was honored by the Royal Academy of Engineering as the first woman in their history to win the Prince Philip Medal for Engineering. And this is really, really extraordinary. And so basically I love Wikipedia. I love storytelling and I love everything and everyone at Women in Red does. Well, and we love you too. In fact, for one year I started writing articles myself at one a day just to try and stop Jess from catching me, but I had to give up eventually after one year. Jess, can we just, I'd like to go on to talk to Carol because Carol is a lady I met in Manchester and the UK and Carol Anne organized an editathon at Emmeline Pankhurst's house. Carol, can you tell us something about that? Yes, so a couple of, a few times now at the Pankhurst Centre and Museum because if people don't know who Emmeline Pankhurst is she is basically the mother, the militant champion of women's suffrage for women to get the vote. And she was born in Manchester in 1858. And I have the honor of speaking to the board and asking them if I could host a wiki editathon. Make that our base because of course we want to be able to do something campaigning from that base going forward. And I call the wiki editor thumbs that come to the events, cyber suffragettes. That's what I call them. They do some fantastic work. But for me, I go around and I, what I say spread the gospel. There are, for example, I know Jess has talked about Gladys West. She's someone who looks like my anti-barrel. That's what some of these kids want. What's that? I think we've lost you. I think we might have to come back to you. I'm sorry about that. Can you try again, Carole? You did start to move again? Are we still... Yes, yes. So what got that got me an invitation to present and do a lecture at the United Nations Youth in Denmark and and like Rosie it was an honor to go to the United Nations Youth and speak with them. I got the gig to actually mentor some of them to do their first ever wiki editor thumbs so we did that I mentored them in 2018 and we did that in 2019 and and that's continued. And so I'm registered in their newsletter and their information about mentoring them and I received an intern that came over to the UK and spent some time with me and Roger. You and I collaborated and you met that said United Nations intern when you came over to co-host the wiki editor thumb at the Panker Center and we will be doing it. Moving forward as a subject. And I got and I got to remate, remeete Helen Panker Center. I'd met at the BBC images, images of people.  And she said, I'm just cutting it out. Yeah, yeah. Well, hats. I like to find pictures of people in hats. I like to find pictures of people wearing whatever wonderful thing they love because that's one of the things I care about on Wikipedia is getting pictures of women getting pictures of diverse, interesting looking women on Wikipedia.  But you don't have to win a Nobel Prize, and you don't have to be on coins or wear a crown to be Wikipedia notable. You can even do horrible things and be Wikipedia notable so we women in red is really good at addressing those kind of gaps between the great women pedestals. And this picture here shows some of the subjects of articles from our July editathons. You won't maybe recognize any of them and that's okay. You might think some of them look like your auntie or your neighbor, and maybe you like her hat. And so you click through and you learn a new story. Notability isn't always dressed up or nipped in or perfectly quaffed. It can mean that notable women laugh and scowl and squint and sweat and rage. I want to see a diverse range of faces and shapes and ages on Wikipedia. I especially want children to see a whole amazing range of what interesting people look like on Wikipedia.  Wonderful. Thank you very much. As you know, I love to see the fact that we're getting women to be seen. I always think of my granddaughter looking online and just seeing the fact that there are more than Marie Curie and Emily Bankhurst as notable women. We seem to have actually managed to keep to time and we might actually have time for Lucy to talk to us. Lucy, could you tell us some of your work about your work at Leeds? You became aspiring UK Wikipedia in the year and you mentioned women who read for some reason in your talk. Can we get rid of the slide and have a discussion, please? Hi, everyone. It's really lovely to be on a panel with some of my editing heroes. Amazing. I was really fortunate that I was voted as a joint up-and-coming Wikimedian in the UK. I was selected for a lot of the work I've been doing with my day job in museums and through my PhD in archaeology and advocacy for the importance of Wikipedia and its related projects. However, I know for certain that I would have not continued editing if it wasn't for the Women in Red project. I learned to edit relatively recently in 2019 at an LGBT History Month event in Leeds. I didn't do very much like lots of people who go to editing sessions. I stopped. Then I started again and it wasn't until a few months later when I wanted to do a page for a notable woman who was a curator at our museum, Elizabeth Peary, that I then came back to the Women in Red project and there's two things that have really made it an amazing and a sustainable way of continuing to edit. One is the infrastructure. There's lists you can choose from. You can get constant inspiration about the amazing things that women have done and continue to do. But also the community that's there, I've asked lots of questions, some of which I think people have gone, oh, they're quite new. They don't know how things work yet. But there's been so much compassion from the talk page. Particularly when pages have been quite difficult, co-writing with other editors has been really important. And so the practicalities of the project, but also the sense of community has really empowered me and continues to empower me to improve the internet. Thanks. That's brilliant. It makes it all worthwhile. I don't know about you, Lucy, but that gives me a warm feeling. What I thought what we might be able to do now is I think we've got about a few minutes left. We may have some Q&A that has come through. I think Marin has been sorting that out. We may have some questions that we can pose and we have... I'll just start off with a question. Where are they putting them in the stream yard chat so that we can see them there? That would be handy. While they're putting the questions there, I just want to say thank you to all the panelists who inspire us to know when. And for everybody who'd like to become a member of Women in Red or just do the work without becoming a member, just go for it. Be bold. We're here to help you if you're interested in that. But you don't necessarily need our help. You know there's a lot of ways you can kind of participate. Follow us on Twitter or come join us on the Women in Red top page. Before I turn over the questions to Roger, this presentation, this panel is dedicated to the memory of a long time Women in Red editor named user Yonina who died this year. Roger, go ahead with questions and answers. Right. Well, Marianne has been sorting through the comments. We don't seem to actually have many questions, but we do have people who are interested in particular areas. One kind of question is if we can call Yon back, is it possible to get Yon to appear on the screen again? Is Yon going to arrive? I'm not sure. No, he's certainly not going to arrive. One of the things that I've come across recently, Rosie, is I was discussing earlier with Carol, we are not a affiliated project. And I've been thinking that maybe we are the largest disorganization on Wikipedia. I think you're right. You know, I'm the chair of the affiliations committee. There are about 180 affiliated Wiki communities around the world. And Women in Red has, for whatever reason, so far at least decided not to become part of the affiliated group of communities, you know, the nonprofits and such. And I think it's because we're such a flat structure. We enjoy not having anyone at the top or the bottom. We're all the same. We're all equal. We all coordinate events if we feel like coordinating them or step back if we feel like doing that. Amazing work that everyone seems to do. Can't do it without you. All very collaborative. Can we have, can the people in the back room close for a discussion, please? Excellent. And can we return Yon to the screen, please? It's spelled E-W-A-N. Ah, thank you, Yon. Difficult getting hold of you. Somebody was asking the question, kind of question, is define which is brackets controversial? Mark? Well, that's more for the historians. Professor Julian Goodair would give you a very good description of what that means. But just anyone that's accused of the crime of witchcraft and investigated for that. So we're not actually saying they're witches. We're saying they are accused.


Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome. This is Melissa Armo with the Stock Swoosh Happy Halloween. I'm reviewing the PayPal here. This was a nice option trade I called right after the stock apt up on the earnings, which was a couple of days ago now. Actually, it was back here on 10.20. It was a really nice gap up. On that live day, though, if you went long it as a day trade, it was very hard to make any money. But it really was a very nice gap. And then it held in here perfectly, beautifully, made a brand new support, made brand new all-time highs when it did this gap, pushed out, made more new highs today, and this is moving ahead of the market. So good sign. Market's been higher. This too, $72.75 was the high here. It looks like it's gapping up tonight. Yeah, this is actually in the post market. I'm seeing that now. So where's the next number? Obviously $73.75 is doable within the time that I called the option trade. But for the people that did it, I mean, you're up here right now in this trade. So someone had emailed me about it. First of all, some people may have been out of this today, which was a good exit, a solid exit, the first exit. But if you want to hold on to it, it looks good. This is finally making a move. And the market is going to go to, I think, between now and the end of the week, higher. And you've got time left. So hold it if you want. But if you got out today, it was a good exit. Stock ran up almost power-trended all day.  I think that's the point. So this was a really, really nice option call. And when I make option calls in the gap option letter, which you can sign up for, it's an annual subscription. You can sign up for the whole year. I email trades to people. They can just do them if they want to. I just do straight calls and straight put calls. So you buy the call, you buy the put. In this case here, you would buy in the call. Nice move up in here in the PayPal and we'll watch it and see where it goes. Have a happy Halloween, everyone. And we'll be watching the PayPal with the market into the close of this week. Thanks, everybody. Have a great night.


My name is Danette McGilbrey. I'm the president and the principal consultant for Granite Falls Consulting. I've actually been in data management for 24 years. My focus is specifically on data quality and data governance. My topic with the Dataversity Training Center is data quality, and that topic is very relevant. Everything today depends on data. If we look at machine learning, we look at AI. Everything that's been important to us over the past few years, it all depends on data that is good quality and that we can trust. I think the data management industry as a whole, it's becoming even more relevant from healthcare to trusting election results. All of this depends on data. So what we provide here from a data management point of view, it actually is important to not just businesses, but society as a whole.


Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States.  I grew up in a town with people like you just across the border in Illinois.  About a young man who was selling fish to the local restaurant, a fellow named Elmer. Well, no one could figure out how Elmer was able to catch so many fish, and they asked the sheriff if he would investigate. Well, he asked Elmer if he could go fishing with him, and early the next morning, they rode out to the middle of the lake. When they got there, Elmer reached into the tackle box, pulled out a stick of dynamite, lit it, threw it into the water. Of course, there was an explosion, and the fish all came floating to the surface. The sheriff looked at the young fella and said, Elmer, do you know you just committed a felony? Elmer reached into the tackle box, pulled out another stick of dynamite, lit it, handed it to the sheriff, and said, did you come here to talk or fish? Well, when it comes to fishing, it's clear that Port Washington is where the action is. Unfortunately, I came to talk. Now, one of the genuine pleasures of this job you've given me is being able to meet and talk to people like you all across this great land of ours. And you may not see it on the evening news, but let me tell you, today in America, there is a spirit of confidence and enterprise and can do and let's go, as I have not seen in many years. It's evident in these workers I met this morning up in Hartford and in the service club members I had lunch with in West Bend. And from now on, if anyone tries to sell America short or tells me that Americans don't have the will to compete or the stamina to keep out in front, I'm going to tell them to come and see you, the people of Wisconsin. America, America is number one, and we're going to stay that way. Let me add that nowhere is the energy and vitality I am talking about more evident today than among our young people. And God bless them. They're the best darned bunch of kids this country's ever had. I know we must have a few of them here from Port Washington High, from Homestead High, from Cedarburg High, from Grafton High, and from Ozaki High. I hope I didn't miss any. But what we've been doing in these last six and a half years has been for them. It wasn't that long ago they were being told to lower their expectations. We were all being told that America's best days were behind her, that our problems were unsolvable. It's no mere coincidence that this blanket of gloom and doom, this smothering pessimism, followed a great expansion of the federal government's power and authority. Our system of limited government, free enterprise, and individual freedom was bent out of shape. Federal spending and taxing were the order of the day. Our pockets were picked and the coffers of state and local governments drained as more and more of the country's financial resources were funneled to the bureaucracy in Washington. As a matter of fact, not too many years ago, before all this government buildup began in Washington, two thirds of the total tax dollar in this country went to local and state governments and less than a third to the federal. In recent years, it's been two thirds to the federal government and only one third to local and state government, where the services that you need so much are provided. Our pockets were picked and the coffers of state and local governments, as I say, drained. More of the country's financial resources funneled to the bureaucracy in Washington. Unfortunately, not only did the country's problems not magically disappear as we were promised, but we ended up with empty pockets, near runaway double digit inflation, economic stagnation, and as the governor told you, interest rates that were the highest that we've had since the Civil War. Now there are those who think you really don't care about these kinds of economic statistics. So before I go any further, I'd like to know how you feel about a few things. Now perhaps, perhaps, after each question, you can just shout back yes or no. Clear your throats though and let's let them hear you all the way to Washington. Do you want to go back to the days of inflation and stagnation? Do you want to go back to the old formula of more taxing and more spending? Or do you want to lower taxes and balance the budget once and for all? In other words, do you want America to keep on the path of more growth, jobs, and opportunity? Well, you know, there's a lot left to do and to borrow a phrase I heard recently, I reject a potted plant presidency. Together in these last six and a half years, we turned decline, inflation, and malaise into growth, stability, and pride. It wasn't government that did it. It was you, the people. Instead of putting more power and authority into the hands of bureaucrats and federal officials in Washington, we chipped away at federal regulations, eliminated much useless paperwork, and cut red tape. Our deregulation drive bolstered the efficiency and competitiveness of American industry and reduced the paperwork burden of government, federal, state, and local. By get this, we reduced the time spent on government-required paperwork by 600 million hours a year. Mayors Lampert, Miller, and Curly can testify that the last thing America's towns and cities need is more federal forms to fill out. Our philosophy since getting to Washington has been that the most effective thing the government can do is get out of the way and let you, the most productive people in the world, do what you do best. When I refer to, when I talk about productive people, I'm referring to individuals like John Stolenwork and those of you who work with him. Just 11 weeks ago in a White House ceremony, I named John the number two small businessman of the year. I'm also talking about the folks I met today at the plant in Hartford and all of you who work hard and take care of your families and love your country. You know how to run your lives and spend what you earn. You are citizens of the freest country in the world. And my, and my theory has always been, you should be telling the government what to do and not the other way around. You know, a president some years ago was talking about government and its power, and he said, if the people don't know enough to run their own lives, where do we find a little select elite that can not only run their lives themselves, but the people's lives for them? And that's government. Well, you can't find them. That's not the way the advocates of big government is, I say, look at it. Far too often your property, your take home pay, your profit from large or small investments, even the assets of your pension funds are spoken of in the corridors of power as if they are government resources, as if government officials are being generous by letting you keep as much as you do, as you do keep of what you earn. Well, they're wrong. In America, government is the servant, not the master, and we intend to keep it that way. During the last decade, the federal tax take nearly tripled. Inflation pushed working people into higher and higher tax brackets until many working Americans were paying at rates that had been formally reserved for the more affluent. But in these last six and a half years, we've tried to correct that situation. Say, is there an echo in here? As the governor, as the governor indicated, we've simplified the tax code, made it more equitable and brought down the rates, and we've done our best to keep the federal government's grasping hand out of your pocket. Now, I'd like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation to two champions in the battle to protect your take home pay. Heroes in the cause of a strong and growing America, Senator Bob Castan and Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner, and your governor is out in front and doing that same thing. Bob's leadership on economic issues and those concerning environmental protection is something for which you can all take pride, and that goes for Jim too. He's been a voice for fiscal responsibility and economic freedom, and he's also been working his heart out in the battle against drug abuse. By the way, you beat me to it. Before I left this morning, Nancy asked me, wanted me to ask you young people, what's the answer to someone who offers you drugs and you beat me to it? Well, with Bob and Jim's solid support, we've protected your paychecks, put in place an economic program that by thanksgiving would have given this country the longest period of peacetime growth in the post-war era. This year, this year more Americans are working and a higher percentage of our workforce is employed than ever before in our history. The unemployment rate continues to move in the right direction, down. I know in this area companies are humming with activity and unemployment is below the national average. While I'm here, I'd like to commend Governor Thompson for his aggressive campaign to get the hardcore unemployed off welfare and into jobs. I happen to believe that instead of dependency and handouts, we should be offering the less fortunate jobs and opportunity, and that's what they want. At the national level, the best thing we can do for those who want to improve their lot is to make sure that America has a strong growing economy and that's exactly what we've been doing. Our greatest challenge now is to keep America on an upward track and to protect the gains that we've made. And what is needed is fundamental reform that sees to it that our economic freedom is every bit as protected as our political freedom. On July 3rd, I unveiled a reform package. We call it the Economic Bill of Rights, aimed at doing just that, protecting our economic freedom against the abuses of excessive and overbearing government. First, the Economic Bill of Rights would add to the Constitution an amendment that would require the federal government to do what every family in America has to do, and that is balance its budget. Now, there are those who say the easy way to bring down deficit spending is by raising your taxes. But what they don't tell you is that these new taxes are to pay for more spending, which means that deficit spending might not come down at all. Those who are always calling for tax increases seem to think that you're under taxed. If I might ask you one more question, are your taxes too low? I agree, your taxes are not too low. And if Congress raises them, it could well knock the legs out from under our economy and drag us back down to the bad times that we had back in those 70s. Raising taxes should be serious business and should not be done without the support of a broad consensus of Americans. That's why the Economic Bill of Rights requires that more than a just majority vote of the members of each House of Congress for the passage of any tax increase. The bottom line is tax increases should be as difficult for Congress to pass as they are painful for the people to pay. What's wrong with saying that 60% or maybe even 2 thirds should be required to increase the taxes. And as far as deficit spending, we don't have a deficit because you're not taxed enough. We have a deficit because the federal government spends too much. And to ensure that wasteful spending isn't maneuvered through the system by attaching it to needed legislation, we propose to give to the president a line item veto. The tool that will permit him to cut the fat and keep the meat of legislation that comes to his desk. 43 governors, including Governor Thompson are armed with this taxpayer's protection device. The president of the United States should be no less equipped to protect your paycheck. The economic bill of rights would also require a truth in spending provision for every piece of legislation. If the bill is going to cost you, the taxpayers, it should state clearly how much it's going to cost and who's going to pay for it. Our program is aimed at protecting our heritage as free Americans. It is aimed at protecting what you earn, what you own, what you'll live on when you retire, and what you will pass on to your children. The economic bill of rights is about freedom, about limited government and unlimited opportunity. It represents all we've fought for and all that we need to continue to fight for. I'm going to work for this, not just for the remainder of this job, but for the rest of my public life. I was gonna say, I was gonna say, I hope I can count on your support. You've told me you can, I can already. Some of you may know that I announced the economic bill of rights on July 3rd, standing on the steps of the Jefferson Memorial. And as I spoke, I could see symbols of our precious freedoms. In the distance was the White House, the Washington Monument, and the Lincoln Memorial. Our one building that can't be seen from the Jefferson Memorial, however, is the Capitol, where both houses of Congress meet and do business. And that view is obstructed by government buildings. Well, by working together, and with our economic bill of rights, we're going to make certain that Congress never loses sight of Jefferson, his ideals, and his vision for all Americans. He is the man that just shortly after the Constitution was ratified, said it has one glaring omission. It does not have a clause preventing the federal government from borrowing. Well, together, we'll keep this the land of the free and the home of the brave. And I just want you to know, I want you to know that I believe that even more strongly than I always have after being with you here today. Thank you all, and God bless you. Thank you. Mr. President, all of us across Wisconsin share your view. We agree with you that America must be number one. We're going to work with you, with your economic bill of rights, and for the freedoms, and for the opportunities, particularly for the young people who are throughout this audience today. Mr. President, the other day I was walking back along the halls of Congress, and one of our big-spender Democrat friends must have dropped their credit card. Now, the credit card doesn't say American Express. The credit card says Congressional Excess. Mr. President, what do you think that we ought to be doing with this Congressional Excess credit card?


he first place if he works for border patrol. Yeah. That's got to be demoralizing then. Someone's got to get all that fentanyl into the country. No. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Oh, for me. Cosmeer Dragon, $5 Super Chat, thank you. That's on, we just talked about that. That's on Jack admitting. They want to get us in trouble. I'm getting everybody's questions considering. I think it's, the way I'm reading it is it sounds like he's trying to express how frustrated he is with there being no challenge to Biden, but I'd argue Mary and Williamson did and we kind of saw that there's not much momentum for a challenge to Joe Biden. At least when it comes to something that doesn't have like a movement behind them and no one who isn't currently in a position of power I don't think would be able to build a movement necessary to primary Joe Biden and even, even still a sitting president, I, it's not happening. Yeah. So I, I questioned the point of this, you know, I guess you could say, oh, messaging campaign or trying to push him in some direction. I don't think it's going to get any attention. I think that's kind of, you know, just, there's, I don't know. I just don't really see the point personally. We should all just run for president. Why not? This one's for me in November to mark $5. Thank you so much. My mother broke her leg a few years back without insurance. Doctors gave her optional surgery just in case our bill was $114,000. Yeah. It's not surprising. But yeah, it still doesn't make it hurt any, any less. Yeah. It's brutal system. Archangel, $10 super chat. Thank you. It says, David, I love watching your vids and I can relate when you pause mid, when you pause mid speaking and sigh, when it is just a bullshit point they're making, I find myself doing the same thing, rating the days. Yeah, no, a hundred percent.   Did I misread that? Did I say $114,000 that I not save the thousand? I don't know what I said. I read $114,000. Oh, OK, OK. I don't know if somebody in the chat was correcting me, but if I said it incorrectly, but $114,000. No, I think they were shocked that it was $114,000. Six digits. Oh, OK, OK. This is from a narrator. Nope, it's not from me. Oh, this is from me. Narrator, thank you so much. $10, imagine campaign or PAC funds being used to buy and cancel debt with Citizens United might be protected free speech. Every debt bought can be sent a collective note, a collections notice of debt canceled by, hmm, I don't know the logistics of that. But that would be awesome. I've never even heard of that. It's an idea. Yeah, I never thought of that as an idea. It's, it's an interesting idea. I don't know how that would work. But if somebody was able to like organize some sort of like national fund to cancel all debt, that'd be, I mean, it's a lot of money if you're going to cancel all of it. But it's interesting for sure. Not for me. Maybe it's for me. Did I miss something? Some of them are out of order. Oh, I think it's, I scroll down for some reason or might things scroll down. It's for me. Jake has $5 Super Chat. Thank you. Says, just saw a dumb money today. Highly recommend it is, is it safe to talk about Oppenheimer now that it's been out for a long time? No, I haven't seen it. I saw, I saw when it came out.  Yeah, I guess it's a true story, right? There's how you can't really spoil it. You can't spoil like you can spoil. No, there are ways to spoil the movie, just things that you may not be aware of or just certain scenes. And yeah, no, we'll be tech scenes. So we'll wait until, until, until Mike sees it. Tyler Cross for the Super Chat. Jen can't run for president. He was not born in the U.S. Oh, he wasn't. Oh, huh. I thought he was born in Turkey. Oh, was he? Yeah, I guess. Oh, OK, huh. I guess, I guess if he wasn't born in the U.S., that would have been the guess. That was, I mean, if there was the assumption. It's born in Argentina. Canadian. The Young Turks. Django Fett with a super sticker. Thank you so much, Django Fett. I don't know what the super sticker is. It's a, it looks like a hippo chompy. Pikachu Illuminati. One-up logo. Yeah, Pikachu Illuminati. No, that's just their, that's their avatar. Oh, right. Right, gotcha. Zero PE in the Super Chat. Make the world better. Punch Nazi with some fists, both in the air and fists in your face, it looks like.  People won't know that you're reading a Super Chat. And I'm like, see, why am I not getting any hate? Or why am I getting the hate, but Matt's not getting any. You said the same thing. See, Matt Claremont with a Super Chat, Canadian Super Chat this week, we learned that 100 percent of Canadian MPs are punchable. No comment, it might be a crime. Joshy, Joshy Neurotic, five dollar Canadian Super Chat. Thank you, says Lance. I was at the counter protest on the 20th. There was another Fascist March plan for October 21st. Hope to see you there. There you go. I did not hear about the new one. Yeah, neither did I. I'll look it up, though. This is Joe.  Joshy saying there's a Fascist March and I hope to see David. Yeah, at the counter protest. I lost my place now. Oh, is this for me? I don't think so, is it? No, it is. Wow. OK, Brian B, thank you. Well, Super Chat, reading the moon is down by Stineback. Really great anti-Nazi propaganda book shows people were belling against occupation. P.S. Get my boy, Kyle Kulinski on. That'd be awesome. Yeah, we got to get Kyle on. We should get Crystal and Kyle. If you guys have contact for that. Yeah, I'll reach out. Oh, yeah. I know Kyle. Yeah. I believe this one is for me. I just feel bad. He's like always. He has like so many shows. Very, very busy. That's why I don't invite anybody. I barely have invited anybody on because I just feel I always feel bad. Like I feel like I'm bugging. I don't know. Yeah. That's how I feel for everything. That's why I barely do interviews. That's why I only interviewed Carl West because they reached out to me. I was like, all right, I guess I'll interview him. Duke of Breed 199. Thank you so much. David Wooden abuse, 128 year old Hitler. I'm sure David Wooden was Hitler. Well, yeah, if Hitler was into it. I think he was a little different. It was a little different situation there.  Celeste with 499. Thank you, Celeste. Lock up Elon and Trump. Always Cornel West 2024. Fire, fire, fire, wave, wave, wave. Also, it's OK to be white. I disagree with that last part, but thank you. Free dare not want to be white. Two dollars, super chat says. I actually do respect you, David. Much love. Is this is this third double? Oh, yeah, are you the one that's blocked on my channel for some reason? I forget. I'll look into that. But if this is you, thank you. Thank you so much. I could endorse third double being unbanned. I don't know. Sometimes I'm not sure why they were banned in the beginning. Yes, might sometimes, you know, do things and I don't really. I don't know. Venetia David with five pounds. I'm with Mike 100 percent punch away. Thank you, Venetia. Kowalski, one ninety nine super chat. Can we blame a 19 year old kid for war crimes? Yes. If they did war crimes, why is it? What is this in reference to? I'm guessing that 96 year old would have been 19 at the time when World War Two is happening, being that a lot of time has passed. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I mean, yeah. Yeah, I mean, again, it was voluntary. Again, it wasn't like he was forced into doing this in this. Oh, this 19 year old was didn't know what to do. They're only 19 there being forced into. I mean, he saw what was going on and he was like, I want it. Yeah. Natya Kit with a this is for me, right? Yeah, Natya Kit with a super chat. Thanks for mentioning India, Canada. How does the US play into India? Canada stuff set to see Biden be OK with the Indian situation. Yeah, that's. That's all that. That's that's Biden playing into the anti China stuff. Yeah, it puts everyone else in like an awkward, I guess, position economically.  But they're trying to keep their relationship with India going. So it's awkward for everyone else. London was five dollar super chat question for the whole crew. So many great video games this year. What are the top three so far for your game of the year? I'm glad you asked that because I've kept a running list. This is the fruit. I'm not sure why I haven't in the past. But oh, I need to do that ever. I have kept a list of every game I've played. What day I started playing it?  I like that actually. I need to do this. Let me let me find my. So right now, and this is a spoiler for my future video on my David Dole channel, which I don't use often, but I will for random gaming stuff. Right now, I have Zelda. Here's the kingdom at number one. I have a dead space remake at number two. Oh, wow. And I have Sea of Stars at number three. Wow. There you go. That's my top three right now. Listen, come out this year. Got a war. That was last year. That was my game of the year this year. That's my game of the year this year. What's your three, Lance? Well, that's that's that's it. That's the one I played this year that I had time to finish that I loved. But I guess I didn't know was a year old. Oh, yeah, yeah. So for me, mine, of course, is Zelda Tis of the Kingdom. That might just be my favorite game of all time, honestly. I loved it so much. It's really good. Yeah. My number two is Resident Evil 4 remake. Very, very good game. And my number three, honestly, it's probably going to be Spider-Man when it comes out. But for now, it's a tie between Pikmin 4 and Liza P. Oh, Diablo 4 also really good. Oh, right. I haven't tried that, but Pikmin 4 is really good. Liza P, I haven't gone back since I kept dying in that second boss. So the more that I've played, I've realized that it's probably one of the harder Souls games. Probably nearly as hard as Sekiro, although they'd just nerfed some of the bosses not on the Game Pass updates. So I'm waiting for that. And they made it easier for you to level up your carrying capacity. But yeah, fantastic. It's actually really. Yeah, it's get the update and then give it another try.  There was a post on Reddit that was like, hey, I finally up to 16 hours. I beat this boss.  And so I was like really nervous. I beat it in two tries. But then other bosses before that one that nobody struggled with, I struggled with. Like there was the arch fish up.   It took me two hours to beat it. It was really, really difficult, but apparently. But I'm more comfortable with my build now. That's not fun for me. I don't like I don't mind dying a couple of times and being like, OK, now I figured it out.  But like, I don't know, that's not all that fun to me personally. So no, it's it's yeah. And I love like I love the whole atmosphere of the game, like everything. I love everything about it. But when it comes to the difficulty, it's just so much a waste of time for me. I've been playing a lot of cyberpunk since they updated it.  I saw what first came out. I played when actually when I first hit discount, I got it because I was curious. I couldn't I played like six hours. I couldn't really get into it. But the update, like to me, it now feels like a like a modern. It's like Grand Theft Auto with like with like deep RPG elements. Really? That's how that's how I'm like the cars drive way better. Like I play, I drive the cars to third person. So it feels like Grand Theft Auto. It's just it's a really it's a really good game. And there are so many things you can do in the world. Like all the side quests are fun, too. So, yeah, I'm spending a lot of time on that. Binder, you never give us your top three. Fortnight, fortnight, fortnight. Is that? It's pretty good all that way. Yeah, that's it. Fortnight World. I'm surprised you. David, I'm surprised you haven't checked out a Canadian MP simulator yet. Why would that be a game? The Nazi clapping simulation in the I feel like you have a better life than that. Yeah, that's not your best. That's not your best work. That's not your best work. Try it. It was off top of my head. And I don't I was expecting to ask you about your video game wise. Oh, for me, Ladi Da Da, a five dollar super chat. Thank you. It says, did you see Rokana is streaming with destiny tomorrow? You guys need to hang out with with white supremacists like destiny to get on Dem streams. I mean, I'll be honest. I'm a big one to streaming with him, too, on a separate stream. I was I was going to say, of all the things you streaming, like, like, getting a whole bunch of people to, like, do canvassing shouldn't really be one of them. I mean, just, you know, just like, absolutely, if that's if that's the whole purpose of this, just to get people out to vote. What what is there to criticize there?  But like objectively, also, I think Rokana probably would cut like he he he's someone who's open to being on anybody's show. Like he's not really on my show multiple times. There you go. Yeah, you know, I think he's I think he messaged him or someone on his team messaged me to be on the show. And I just like I didn't answer the email. Not that I don't like him, but I just I don't like doing interviews. They're always weird, so David ghosting politicians.  I don't respond on the emails I get. I don't respond to any emails. I don't like, oh, Sam, respond to email.  I don't I'm very anti. I feel that. Yeah, that's every email now is one of these. Hey, here's a love the channel. Great work. Do you want to sponsor this sponsor that? Because my views are good.    No, I don't want to promote Magic Spoon, even though I do like it. It's delicious. I don't want to like stop or stop. A lot of it's like MCNs want to join, you know, our media network. It's like, no, I don't want it. You just want to do that to steal my money.  All right, I just got out of one. You just got out of what? No, there's emails are not much. I'm over emails. Yeah, I just I don't bother anymore. T King, five dollars. Mike, I need more beard and mustache tips growing mine now. Should I wax and brush it or trim it when it gets in the way? Well, you should definitely keep it cleanly because it, you know, if you have a very messy beard, it looks gross and it will be gross.  So you've got to keep it clean. Also, if you're trying to grow it out, it sounds kind of productive, but trimming it actually makes it look more full because if it starts to grow out, you know, you could see like it looks more ratty looking. And so you got to keep it like nice and tight, right? So yeah, also get one of those brushes.  And it's very thick brush with that. It's it's very good, very good. I highly recommend it. Just like search for a beard brush and there'll be like a million different versions that come up on whatever website. I would highly recommend that. Archangel, ten dollars, Super Chat, much appreciated. It says I am in the army and we have been talking at work about the shutdown. I work at Fourscom at Fort Liberty and our building will be empty next week if the government shuts down more civilians than army work here. Yeah, it's going to impact a lot. Summer, I think in summerly when she was talking to the committee about this, I think it's it's like over 200,000 people are going to like not have paychecks because of this. So yeah, yeah, it's going to affect so many people for no reason, for no good reason. Worms are with a ten dollar Super Chat. Thank you so much. We need a decision with gay spares. We need a decision when gay space werewolves with a colony on the light side of the moon serve an imminent threat that might unite humanity, nuke the moon or attack during an eclipse. Probably don't want to nuke the moon, right? Yeah, then they're going to sound like a good idea. No. I forget to say your last name, George. It wasn't Arit, I think it was Arit or Arrit. George, two dollars, Super Chat, thank you, says are as in glare. I meant that's my fault. Oh, glare, Arrit, George Arrit. There we go. I got it. Thank you, narrator, ten dollar Super Chat. Thank you so much. Says you don't go from Occupy Wall Street to Red Scare Fearmongering without some self awareness that your soul is bought and paid for. Is that Russell Brown? What are you talking about? Who is referencing the problem? Tim Poole is what I'm thinking. I was thinking of Russell Brown. But we weren't talking about it. No, we weren't. It could be anybody. Red Scare Fearmongering sounds more liberal. Does it not? No, I don't know. Conservatives do that all the time. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, it's simple. Yeah. Fly Chopper Fly, two dollars. Thank you. Says, as many said, a jank born in Turkey. So not not eligible question mark. I have seen some questions as to how enforceable that is. Ten crews was born in Canada. He ran for president like, you know, does anyone know if a jank is eligible to run for president? If you know, please send me a super chat and mention it. Honestly, though, if that was ever going to be challenged, then Arnold Schwarzenegger would have done it because he was the governor of California and really wanted to run for president, but he couldn't. What? Why did Ted Cruz run then? He was born or how? He was born in Canada. He was born in Alberta, wasn't he? Yeah, I think he was born on a. I think he was born on a. Was he born on another base? Oh, was he? Interesting. I didn't didn't know that. Archangel with five dollars. Thank you, Mike. How many hours did you put into Tears of the Kingdom? I finished the game with two hundred thirty five at least and felt it was justified. Your thoughts. Yeah, so I did. I did about one hundred and thirty five hours. And I felt like I got everything out of it that I needed to. I explored most of the deaths. I got every single. The. God, I'm trying to shrines. Yeah, the shrines. I'm sorry, I'm tired. Yeah. But yeah, you know what? I think it's a good game to sink that much time into. I don't think that you should feel guilty for it. It was a very, very good escape. And again, like I said, probably my favorite game of all time. It's also one I keep going back to like. Oh, yeah. You keep playing it. Absolutely. I got I got to amend that. So Ted Cruz I forgot about this. This was a whole discussion. Yeah. It seems weird to me. Ted Cruz was eligible based on the fact that. He qualified because he was born to a U.S. citizen living abroad, making him a U.S. citizen at birth. But I didn't think I didn't think that was. I didn't think that was a rule. I thought you had to be on the soil. Yeah, that's what I thought, too. Military base. Yeah. Yeah. Military base would make sense. So would like an embassy. Right. That's very. Yeah. I'm glad that that is the case. But I wish we can make an exception for Ted Cruz. Could I read a couple of quick? Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. I just want to squish these out or an F. Thank you for the 500 yen. Mike's got too excited from the panel layout looking like a fighting game character select screen. I guess it did look like that at the start. Narrative narrator with very generous $10 work requirements are so Democrats don't want. Don't talk about the right for a reason. I'm sorry. But I also want to thank all the international corporations that pay living wages in other countries and full-time employees and welfare in the U.S. In the U.S. Yeah. I didn't know that. And steps. Thank you for the incredibly generous $26 with the message. Thank you for the stream. It's very nice of you. Thank you so much. Back to you. All right. Carr. Arshman. 499 super chat. Thank you. Cenk believes the 14th Amendment means that naturalized citizens are eligible to run for president and hasn't been litigated yet, so who knows? I just think the whole conversation is kind of ridiculous. He hasn't even announced it. If he announces he's not going to be Biden in the primary, so I don't know. I think we saved this conversation for somebody who might become president. If he's serious about it, then it's just for attention. I feel like that's pretty obvious. Oh, me again. Green Lantern. Four ninety nine pounds. Good morning, guys from the UK. Good morning. Morning. I can't tell if that's saying good morning, guys from the UK is in there from the UK or good morning, guys from the UK. I think it's the eight hour. We are all in the UK. This one's for me. Ford eight, four, eight, four, five dollars. Thank you, Ford. I know Pacman isn't as left per se. He's probably more like social democrat, but I agree with that he's not as left as us probably, but we'd love to see Kyle and Pacman at the same time on the show. They are the OGs. That would be fun. I think that would be fun.  Contacts bring them on. Yeah, yeah, I have Kyle. I mean, David and I can get Kyle on. I don't know if anybody else has Pacman. Yeah, Kyle, do it. I feel like Pacman and Kyle at the same time. It's like it's too it's too much. There's no point having both of like these large people at the same time. Exactly. You want time with each of them. You don't want to like split their time. And Matt Binder wants to go to war with Pacman. And I don't want to go to war. There might be no problem with that. I was going to say, I don't know if Pacman would want to do the show. I don't think he would want to do the show personally. I think he would do it. I think he's good. He doesn't go on every show. I think he would do it. Yeah, absolutely. He goes on every right. He interviewed Dennis Prager the other day. Yeah, yeah. He went on Jesse Lee Peterson's show. He would do it for sure. Yeah, to like destroy them. That's all content farming for not saying that's oh boy, I'm going to get in trouble again. Oh, see, this is why that's but that's for a man coming on this show.  Like it would just be me and my figure eight of both. Do you guys have beef that I know me and Mike figure eight of both by his children's books that he better come on the show. That's true. Yeah. Yeah, that's true, which I was good. I still plan to give that to my niece and my nephew. I just haven't seen them in a while. So I will give that book to them because I think it's good. I want them to have a critical thinking skills. I think that'd be great. Duke of Brett. Oh, my God, I did it again one night. Why do you call me Duke of Breed? Dirty Mar. Brett, I'm so I'm so tired. I'm sorry. Yeah, that is funny.  Damn. Jcast, two dollars. She was that reminder from yesterday. Pence eats data. He does. Not wrong. Not wrong. I go to bed every night. I had forgotten about that. I've been a teacher every teacher. Yeah, 30 years. Yeah, I'm banger. That was so weird. The way that he said it, I'm still with the teacher. I slip with the teacher for 30 years. OK, yeah, that's weird. Kovalski with a super chat. Oh, he's OK. We're going back to this Ukrainian Nazi who.    All right.  Volunteer if they're going to die. You know what I mean? Like I'd volunteer and kill Hitler. That's what I mean. No, but let me look at it honestly.  And it's not something that you were ideologically aligned with. And it was just for your own, you know, survival.  Right. Yeah. This guy clearly is proud of his history and what he did. And it wasn't what you're claiming it was. It really does appear that this guy, based on what we know about this specific SS battalion and what he did for in front of parliament, accepting this applause. It appears like this guy volunteered of his own accord and wanted to. Also, for me, it's less about him individually. It's more about the fact that this guy wasn't vetted.  Like that's to me, this is more on like this is an issue more about parliament and the complete lack of oversight on this and the complete lack of awareness in our education system. About, you know, who the Soviets were during the World War Two. Like, that's for me, that that's what the story really is about as opposed to it being about this individual person who was invited to parliament. Mo Noa put the super chat. Get my girl no comment, Chica. And I think she'd be a super fun guest. Yeah, we will. We do. We should get no comment. Check out. Who is that? Is she on YouTube or Twitter? You Tube, I think both. I think she does both. I'll check. I haven't heard of her. But I'm not trying to find new creators. So last with the super chat. Will y'all check out the new princess peach game? Oh, I didn't know there's gonna be a new Princess peach game.  Yeah We should stream that Yeah Yeah, it's four players online. Oh, we gotta play we gotta do that David and I did a Mario stream before it was so much fun. It was a lot of fun. Yeah. Yeah Do you have a switch? Oh, that's a good idea Lance, I would love that do what I miss that do it for it. Do like a charity event Oh, yeah, it's a great idea. That would be so much fun October 20th. That's right. Same day. Oh, man. Yeah, it's a big day for us gamers In terms of the peach game, it does look interesting. It's to me.  Yeah, like a peach is like a very in all different scenarios I'm gonna wait for reviews. It seems like it's definitely aimed more towards a younger audience I could be wrong, but I'm gonna wait for reviews to see what it's all about Yeah, if the reviews are good, I'll check it out because I am a sucker for Nintendo games. Yeah, it looks super cute Yeah, it does Ford 8 4 Mike Gotta be you.  It's me. I apologize.  Thank you Says the legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time is the goat the Godfather of video games fact as far as facts go with subjective video opinions I think that's that's a fair Argument You could I mean there are so many games that have such a massive impact on the industry like I don't know the original suit suit Like I don't know just Super Mario Bros.

I apologize Like the rest of us Really, I really do enjoy online game is more than anything So I don't I don't get into all the big storyline driven first person single-player games. I should say so Yeah Now Raider says the Constitution says natural born US citizen. Yeah, but what does that mean? Someone replies apparently a quirk killer natural born equals just American parents What are the what a coincidence like two different channels? Yeah, but there you go just American parents Interesting Tokyo Han says John McCain was born in Panama on base. So Ted Cruz. Okay, too But I mean, I guess it doesn't matter that he was born in a base if his parents Citizens yeah, I didn't know that so if you if you are an American you both have like passports You can go anywhere in the world have a kid. That's an American too. I didn't know that. Oh, yeah I didn't know that either. I think a lot of countries are like that though. I don't know the US was like but then why do you hear about why do you hear about People being born while they're visiting another country and then they're they're they're not citizen.

Welcome to a sneak peek of WordPress 5.9. We're excited to share some of the highlights coming to the next release of WordPress. The 5.9 release marks the introduction of a next generation of themes that allows greater customization and simpler building. Themes can now be created entirely with blocks, meaning you get all the familiar editing tools and the same blocks you use when creating posts and pages to allow you to edit all parts of your site, including your header and footer. All the templates from the theme can be edited using the block editor, like the home page, your blog archive, or single pages. Want to zoom in on just your header? Easy. Using the top toolbar, select your header and switch into a dedicated mode to do exactly that. Once there, you can explore the new navigation block that comes with built-in responsive and keyboard-accessible options. With over 30 theme blocks, the ability to customize and create every part of your site has never been easier. Improvements to the user experience are also coming to WordPress 5.9 to help you better take advantage of these new possibilities. ListView alone has several improvements, including being able to rely on the familiar experience of drag and drop to place your content exactly where you want it. Improve your workflow with more complex content thanks to the ability to collapse sections of the ListView and add HTML anchors to your blocks to be able to see them at a glance. Let's take a look at styles. Styles introduce a quick and intuitive way to change all the visual elements of your site globally, from typography to colors to various aspects of how blocks appear. All of this allows you to achieve distinct looks by modifying the style presets. Here's an example from the 2022 theme, showing how drastically different the theme can be with tweaks to the styling options. Patterns can be used to create different sections like headers and footers. In a few clicks, you can make a brand new header without changing your theme. Open the Inserter, switch to the Patterns tab, and select Explore to see what's available. All these new features help you get where you want to go faster, whether it's writing new posts or building a landing page. To support all these updates, the interface of blocks continues to improve with new design tools. These powerful tools allow you to get your content just right. More typography controls are also available, allowing you to intuitively add subtle changes to make your content more visually interesting. These tools can also be used to arrange a button's block horizontally or vertically, depending upon the look you're trying to achieve. If you can't make up your mind now, it's simple to change. Controls have also been added to the feature image block to allow you to quickly set the size and scale of your image with ease to make an important part of your content really shine. Border support has been added to unlock new creative possibilities for your content. With just a few combinations of the settings you can see here, you can create vastly different layouts from a simple border to more nuanced and radical options. It's amazing what can happen when a few tools come together. Image filters like Duotone can be used in even more places, like the featured image block. It's a great way to bring character to your photos. With more design options, more blocks, more patterns, and more tools to edit even more parts of your site, we can't wait to see what you create with WordPress 5.9.
