Welcome to today's edition of Frightfully Forgotten. But to start things off, what are we drinking today? We're drinking Spivey Point Steemail. Mmm. Today we're going to be talking about a classic, probably one of the more influential horror movies that come out of the 60s I think. Yeah, it's almost like a blueprint for a lot of movies. Yeah. 1963's The Haunting, based off of the novel Haunting of Hill House. This has kind of been like a bit of a resurrection because now there's a Netflix show called The Haunting of Hill House. So this movie was the first adaptation of that material. It was directed by Robert Wise. He directed The Day the Earth Stood Still, West Side Story, The Andromeda Strain, and The Sound of Music. So, like, man, there's four, plus this one that we're doing, that's five like iconic movies. Yeah. Julie Harris is in this. She was in the dark half. Richard Johnson was in this, and he was Dr. Menard in the zombie. Russ Tamblin is in this. And he was also in West Side Story, and he's in the new Haunting of Hill House. Lois Maxwell is in this, too. She was Money Penny in all of the original James Bond's, all the way up to A View to a Kill. The movie starts off with a simple narration explaining the history of Hill House. The house is constructed 90 years ago by Hugh Crane. On his wife's way there to see the house for the first time, she died in a carriage crash. This is back in the days of horse and buggy. Hugh Crane then remarries, and his second wife ends up dying in the house this time by falling down the stairs. Then, Hugh Crane's daughter, Abigail, ends up inheriting the house, and she becomes a weird recluse. She hires this nurse to take care of her. She dies at night calling out to this nurse, but the nurse is busy making out with some young guy. This nurse companion is now inherited the house from Abigail. And she ends up hanging herself from the stairs in the library. So that's kind of the haunted history behind this house. Present time, Dr. Markway is looking to investigate the paranormal activities in this famously haunted place called Hill House. He's speaking to the current owner about spending time there, and she lets him, but with one caveat. He has to include the next heir to the house, Luke, in his investigations. Markway puts out invitations to several people to be included on this investigation team, and he is kind of targeting people who have had paranormal experiences in the past. So we're introduced to Eleanor, and she kind of lives a bit of a sad existence, sleeps on the couch at her sister's place. She helped pay for half of the car, but she has to beg them to use this car to go to do this investigation. She gets to the house, she's the first person there. In the house the rest of the people meet up, Theo, a woman who has kind of had some psychic abilities. And then of course there's Luke, who's going to be inheriting the house at some point. The doctor also explains that the house is built at weird angles, so doors will close and open by themselves, so it's not necessarily ghosts. The first night, the girls, Eleanor and Theo, they're trying to sleep. All of a sudden they hear bangs outside of their bedroom door. Boom! Boom! They keep getting louder and louder as it gets closer to the door. Then all of a sudden everything stops. They open the door. It's Luke and Dr. Markway. They had run off to go chase this dog, and they were outside of the house, and they ran back in. We start to hear Eleanor's thoughts. She kind of also feels like she doesn't belong anywhere, and now suddenly she's starting to feel like this is home. They feel a cold spot by the nursery. They also see writing on the wall. Laura starts to blame Theo that she's maybe picking on her and stuff like that.  Dr. Markway's wife ends up showing up, ends up being a real skeptic. She goes and stays in the nursery. All of a sudden they start to hear these bangs. At this point, everybody except Eleanor has been kind of skeptical about what's been going on. Now everybody's starting to hear it, and the door actually starts to bow. The doorknob starts to turn again. My wife's out there. I gotta go out there. No, you're not going out there. You don't know what's out there, and it starts to get really intense. Well, I'll show you the house real cheap, doc. He's even starting to believe what's going on. The next day, his wife is gone.  Dr. Markway starts to work his way up to try and coax her down. It's like it's all rickety, and the bolts are all coming out of the wall, and it's going to collapse at any moment, and that's where we're going to stop it. So if you want to see what's going to happen with Eleanor and Theodore, and Dr. Markway and Luke, keep watching the haunting. It's more than a classic horror. I think it's set the blueprint for a lot of things going forward. The first thing I noticed when I watched this movie was Evil Dead. Sam Raimi must have been a huge fan of this movie because the camera work, all the zooming in on things, it's so Evil Dead, or Evil Dead is so the haunting. And Evil Dead too, because there's that scene, and all those sounds and the beams and everything. Yeah, it's like that's purely right out of this movie. And the, why are you holding my hand so tight? That's Evil Dead too.  Bobby! Super influential. Came at a time too where horror movies were starting to get hokey, and this movie is so classy. So you don't see any ghosts, you don't see any goblins, it's all camera work and it's implied in all sounds. Amazing sound work in this movie. It's kind of ahead of its time in the way it uses sound, I think. Yeah. It also uses the characters to their fullest potential. The story is driven by all of these characters. There's the doctor in this that grounds everything and always brings it back down to reality. What kind of revolves around Eleanor? Very tragic figure in this movie. She can be influenced very easily. Yeah. Which is why you kind of question what happens to her. Is this all going on up here? That's just it. Everybody's seeing what she's seeing. Yeah. Because you don't really know. The movie almost seems like a metaphor, though, for Eleanor's suffering. It's not only the haunting of Hill House, it's the haunting of herself. Another neat thing is this movie was shot in black and white at a time where color movies was pretty much a mainstay at this point. Decision made by both the studio and the director. The black and white for this movie works perfectly. I don't think it would be nearly as effective if shot in color. This movie for an hour and 51 minutes is not boring. It goes by pretty quick and there is a lot of dialogue, but it's all relevant to the story and you have to pay attention to it, right?  And this movie kind of really uses all your senses to its full advantage. The sound design of the loud bangs and stuff, visuals of all the camera work. It takes all your senses and really kind of uses them to scare you, which is perfect filmmaking for a horror movie. Not only do you hear it, the camera zooms into the door, right?  It just shows these quick shots, like door the girls, door the girls. Then they're like, the sound is coming from above the door and it shows above the door. Then it shows the girls again. Then it's like, then it goes quiet. Then you see the little doorknob and it zooms right in on the doorknob and you see the doorknob start to turn and as the viewer you're like, what's going on? You have to check out the haunting. It basically set the standard, I think, for horror movies going forward as far as how to effectively achieve scaring somebody using a camera and sound. This movie was remade in the 90s. I remember seeing it in the theaters and hating it. It was terrible. Super over the top. It went against everything this movie stood for as far as holding back and not showing too much. Complete opposite way. Yeah, just threw everything out the window. If you're a fan of any haunting movies, of course, Andy Velhor. Movies like The Changeling 2? Please check out The Haunting from 1963. If you haven't seen it, it's not so much a forgotten movie. It's been overshadowed by other things that have been known to do things that this movie kind of did first. Yeah, and there's a remake of it. There's a TV show of it, so maybe not too many people know that there was an original movie to it. Yeah. Oh man. Check it out. And... Keep drinking.


We, uh, we just went live strolling soon, so as you can see, things get like crazy around here, right before the show starts. Who's the best gamer of all time? Of all time? Yeah. Forcin'. I'm from Texas. Football is just what you do. You go to church on Sunday, you turn to high school football games on Friday. That's just the way things go around here. You being fully immersed in Diablo. Why is a full immersion so important to you? That's the one thing I'm not familiar with. You should be talking three to five. So it's quick. Exactly, so I got a question, answer, question. For me, like, it was good. Okay, so guys, we play studio, best is the standard, okay? Why is best the standard? Because I'm involved in everything I do is best. Yeah, so I have a little bit of a different role this year. Last year, I was on a few panels and we talked like RPGs and stuff like that. But I'm going to be hosting like during the whole show this year. I'll be presenting. I feel pretty confident. It's going to be fun. I feel like a famous person right now. I feel like Britney Spears. Yeah. This is basically what happens before every show is Ms. just finds people to think pictures with and use them for likes. I mean, that was just pretty effective. The O.T.K. choice is going to be a game that we pick ourselves. Now, also, it's not just these four. They're going to be joining me. Very importantly, for a variety of games. I'm worried I might not be a little bit underdressed for tomorrow. I'm concerned. We got all these guys dressed. We've got an incredible line-up of games that we're really excited to see. I feel like there's a commitment to excellence. I feel like there's an expectation. I don't want to let the people down. I don't want to let the fans down. I don't want to let the kids down. And that's really what it's about. It's about the children. It's not easy being a role model. From Furbier Games. Let's check it out. Chance, what did you think? Well, as a man, Chance is not in control of this panel. I am. For some respect, I'm dead as we're distant. We are the variety gaming panel. You know what? I've got some people to say before we talk about the team. So I have to prepare.   Okay. I still introduced Aspen earlier. Yeah, earlier for the show. That's basically the moment where the general rule of thumb should be we shouldn't sacrifice continuity for the sake of simplicity. It sets the tone for the whole show. Big energy. Yo, this is the panel. Yo, this is Aspen. Aspen. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the variety gaming panel. Yes. Let's go look at the gaming PC. Boom. I'm ready. I'm hungry. We have a bunch of like media people coming in and throughout the day while we're doing the rehearsals and just interviews and like different like news outlets and stuff. Which is kind of cool. I wanted to mention one thing. I saw you at GDC. I gave you like candy. Oh, yeah. I feel really bad about doing that because like I realized how sus that looked didn't like save the system. Just gave someone an unmarked bag of... Yeah, I remember that. I was like, I don't know what to do with this. Cool. I need a scan. Hi, this is Banffa. I'm a story mom. Yeah. Yeah. Josh. Yeah. Good to meet you. Yeah. Nice to meet you. How do you find just break periods or like resets so that you don't like burn out as much? I don't. Part of it is like, it's just the nature of what we do to some degree. First thing I did want to just ask you how do you intertwine ambition with I guess concentration so that you're able to manage the things that you need to get done without maybe being too ambitious and having too much on your plate. I'm almost like obsessed with like progress. I'm literally addicted to the feeling of progression whether that's in the types of games that I play what I do in those games or just like in real life. Like I always like trying to like get better. What word is that ambitious aspect stem from? Does it stem from your days when you're in football or even before football? Was that something where you've always just been ambitious towards the things that you really enjoyed? Yeah. I think ambition can come from a lot of places. A lot of times it's how you're raised. So both my parents are Middle Eastern. So there's that. But you know, joking aside, it's championship mentality.   And part of being a winner is actually losing. My dad would always say this, I love American football because they lose. And they have to learn how to lose. And they have to take that loss and they have to grow from it. My dad said that whenever I was younger and it like always stuck with me. First, would you just feel to provide a context of how you got into football and then how that kind of drove some of your passions? I'm from Texas. Football is just what you do. It is, you know, you go to church on Sunday, you go to Texas High School football games on Friday. That is just the way things go around here. Something that I didn't play until I was 12, I think I was in sixth grade. And what happened was I had a friend of mine, one of my best friends.  So you want to come play? I was like, okay, sure. So I joined halfway through their season and I didn't really know what happened. I just was like, okay, cool. And I just started playing a little bit. No idea what happened. Played like four or five games. Then whenever middle school came around, it's like, okay, I was going to join the football team. I just kind of played football because that's what everybody did. I was, you know, it was big and no real football background. I think they literally put me on like the A team in seventh grade just because I was big. I had coaches actually tell me that.  So like, cool. I didn't get a scholarship to go play anywhere. And I ended up walking on this in you. I had a little bit of an injury history coming in. And then I hurt my neck in practice. We were doing a drill and I hurt my neck in practice and actually practiced through it for a few days. And I was like, something is wrong. And then when we got to go check it out, I was like, yeah, okay. But it was against Justin Waller, who he played for the Rams for a bit and then for the Titans. By the way, amazing dude. Like he was one of my really good friends in college. I ended up getting hurt. And then whenever I got hurt, I was away from football for a bit. And then one of the new coaching staff came in and there was Chad Morris and everybody. People got retained on staff. One of them called me up and he's like, hey, I know you can't play anymore, but we know you love football. We know you're smart. They want to do some more things on like the tech side. Would you be down to come help out? I was like, sure. I volunteered at first, like kind of video stuff.  Like I was even helping with equipment a little bit, like helping with like designs for like some of the clothes, like workout clothes and stuff like that. And pretty much everything but coaching. That's what I wanted to get into. And I started doing that. Like I got like playbooks and stuff that they gave me.  But now I'm here. So, yeah. Appreciate your time. Yeah, it was great. So look. What's up, guys? Welcome back to a very special interview. We got the one and only S-Fan.  A lot of games on display throughout this expo for hundreds of thousands of people to see, which is great in itself. But what game at the expo is exciting you? There was one that was like a really cool parkour night game. And when you see it, you're gonna be like, oh, yeah, that looks sick. Like it's just just looking at it look cool. Another one, it's, it was toxic crusaders. I think it's the first thing we show in the show. Again, I haven't played that one. But we were watching the trailer for it. And I'm like, dude, I love Super Nintendo. I saw it. I'm like, this just looks exactly like turtles in time to me. Like the old Ninja Turtles game. And just like the setup of you've got like the, it's like four players beat them up type game. Like I love that stuff. Like the X-Men arcade game. Like I love games like that. So it just felt like that style of gaming to me. So I probably will try and like couch co-op that and get some of the guys together and move it together and play that. And before anyone hops on you, these guys have reviewed hundreds of games, if not slightly over a thousand games for this expo. It's a long, strenuous process. Can you take us through what it's like to have to hand sift through so many games?  Is it this many games for these categories or these the categories we want to go with? There's a lot of emotions because you guys also had a big announcement, which again, we're in the future. So they've already had this big announcement with Mad Mushroom being a publishing company. Gotta ask you, you've played a lot of games throughout your lifetime. So what's the motivation of wanting to start this publishing company? And what's like the ultimate end goal behind Mad Mushroom? Mad Mushroom is ambitious. Not only do we have a lot of big streamers, it's part of OTK, but we have people that are like, our guys, whether it's Asvin or Chance or anything, we have guys who played games for years and years and years. And a lot of the value of what a publishing company brings is really enhanced by rhythm marketing. If there's a game that's good and we want to publish it, we're like, okay, this game looks good. It looks fun. We'll publish it. We'll play those games on stream. If that's something that we really believe in, it's going to be a great deal for those games. There's so much value in being able to do that. Having that direct community feedback that a lot of devs don't get. Let's say a game comes out and you're like, okay, that was cool, but I think it should have this or this should have that. And I'm playing it on stream. If I play a demo of one of these games that we have in the Games Expo, then I hear what chat says. But it's a lot harder for a dev for any of these games to not only get people to play the games in the first place, but then knowing that they played the game and then going back and sifting through all the feedback and being like, what do people think? What does the streamer think? And we have that direct connection. We end up being the bridge between the community that the game is the target audience for and the developers. I'm very, very, very excited for what we can do with Mad Mushroom. We saw a cut of you playing Diablo, and it was a special cut.  And so the question being, why is a full immersion so important to you? If you want to play games at the highest level, and I've always believed in this, you've got to be completely and totally immersed in your character. You've got to become one with the character in order to play the highest level. So sometimes you can do that. Sometimes you can't. It's just, it is what it is. But whenever I was like, hey, look, I loaded up Diablo, and I was clicking through the characters.  So I clicked on S-Band. I clicked on the Druid. And it's like, no, this is literally like me. Everybody's like, dude, Druid looks like S-Band. Druid looks like S-Band. I'm like, okay, ha ha, guys, long hair beard equals S-Band. I went to go look at it, and I was like, oh, no, like that's me. And it's like, same body, same type of frame, same body type. I'm a little bit deflated a little bit. I haven't worked out in a few months because of some injuries. So I went up and I stood next to it, and I was like, man, I got to get back in the gym. S-Band. But no, it's actually, yeah.  Yeah, man, full immersion matters. Kind of as a flip-flop, as we close down the questions, who's the best gamer of all time? Of all time? Yeah. Forcing. Why? Forcing. Why? Forcing. That'll work. Well, you know, it wouldn't be an OTK event without another announcement of a new company. Thank you. Good job, guys. So where's the creature keeper? You just want to know what I lost night? Hmm. I have canton and bananas. Guys, I just wanted to introduce myself. I work with the villains. One day. One day. See you all. See you all today. Give me the video. Hi, guys. Hi. Hi. What's the puns there with games? Yeah. What's the puns there with games? What's the puns there with games? Hello. Good morning. Hi, I am. Good morning, Lake. Good morning, vlog. So what was editing this? Just do this over and over again. What? Multiple minutes of misgift pull-ups. Do it again. Make it look like it'd be 40 seconds. Oh, wow. Wait for all the way here for this.  Just make sure I'm filming it. We just went live starting soon. So there's a show. As you can see, things get like crazy around here right before the show starts. A whole lot of juice, a whole lot of energy. People get really excited. You can't even contain this off the walls. Okay. There's been so much work and everything putting into this. But as you guys see this, the show's already got to be done. So I hope you guys enjoyed the show. And I hope you guys enjoyed the behind the scenes.

That was a lot. Turned out really good. You're the engineer, right? And you know what's funny? Yeah. They said Anyanari at the beginning of the trailer. That's why I thought I pronounced it wrong. Yeah, that's because that's what the world was at. Yeah. Okay. I'm not saying I should. Okay. But anyway, guys, thank you so much for watching. Good job, man. Thanks. Great job, man. Thanks.

Hey there Psych2Goers, before we begin, once again we'd like to thank you for your ongoing love and support. Psych2Go's mission is to make psychology and mental health knowledge more accessible to everyone, and you've helped us so much along the way. We really appreciate you all. So what set of expectations do you have from a romantic relationship? From funny and intelligent, kind and compassionate, to fun and confident, we all have different ideas about the traits we want in our ideal partner. No matter what your type or preference may be, there are some things that are essential to fostering a close and meaningful relationship. Here are eight things people want from a relationship. 1. Respect We all want to feel respected by the people we love because it means that they value us, appreciate our efforts, and take our feelings into consideration.  They respect your time, perspective, decisions, and most of all, your differences. 2. Honesty Do you want someone who is open and forthcoming with you about their thoughts, feelings and intentions no matter how painful or difficult it might be? Every healthy and loving relationship needs honesty from both sides in order to grow. No one wants to be kept in the dark or have to always guess what their significant other wants or means. A lack of honesty and open communication breeds conflict, mistrust, and misunderstanding, where there should be love, trust, and understanding. 3. Compromise Do you shy away when conflicts arise? Or do you willingly solve it together with your partner? Well, as much as we want to be with someone who agrees with us about everything, it just isn't realistic. In order to make a relationship work, you and your partner have to be willing to work through difficulties together and come to a mutually beneficial agreement. Or excitement. Every relationship needs a bit of excitement to keep the spark alive, no matter how much time has passed. Once the thrill of abutting romance fades, you want to be with someone who shares the same sense of humor as you, who has a similar taste for adventure and openness to experience. For a lot of us, we seek relationships with people who are fun to spend time with, who make even the most mundane activities feel new and exciting. 5. Encouragement Do you feel like you're not ready to settle down?  If so, it's no surprise you look for partners who are generous with their encouragement and support, instead of standing in the way of your hopes and dreams. You want someone you can count on to support you through everything, ensure you want no matter what happens. Someone who only has your best interests at heart. 6. Affection Everyone expresses their love in different ways, whether it's by spending quality time together, buying thoughtful gifts, writing love letters or simply giving them a kiss and a hug. We all want our acts of affection to be reciprocated by those we love. Sharing affection in our relationship is what gives us the feeling of emotional fulfillment and satisfaction, and without it, we won't feel as close or connected to our partners. 7. Emotional intimacy Aside from physical affection, people also crave emotional intimacy in their relationships. Defined as the feeling of closeness to another individual that develops over time, emotional intimacy is what allows us to be vulnerable with the people we love and feel more connected with them because of it. When we become emotionally intimate with someone, it means that they understand us and accept us for who we really are. It's regarded as the highest form of trust we can grant anyone, and it's something most of us can only get from close, meaningful relationships. 8. Dedication You crave commitment and loyalty. Are you the happiest when you're with someone you know you can always depend on? One thing we all expect from our relationships is dedication. We want to know that no matter what challenges we might face, our partner will always be there for us, because with dedication comes compassion, understanding, empathy, and forgiveness.  Do you relate to any of the points we've mentioned here? What else do you want from your relationship? Leave your comments down below, we'd love to read them. Remember, you have the right to expect honesty, trust, loyalty, and dedication in a relationship. The clearer you and your significant other are with each other, the happier you'll be.

Thanks for watching.


They say every great dream begins with a dreamer Chapter one This story starts with an idea and the boy or a girl in a bedroom With nothing but a pen and a laptop Chapter two That pen has scribbled furiously across that page countless time and that laptop has meant hours illuminated in front of tired eyes Cans of energy drink and that idea has turned into a passion Chapter three That passion has found its way into the inbox of like-minded individuals signed off of words like honestly, do you think it's a good idea? Do you think it will bang? Chapter four the idea turn passion turn confirmation from trusted friends that it will indeed bang has turned into a project Skip to chapter six that project has become viable That project has become a business that project has become a reality that project has the potential to change the world Because that's logical people we become stuck in our ways reluctant to change Function the same when there's nothing to gain we say if it's not broke Why fix it? There's no need To reinvent the wheel Forgetting that all skyscrapers are once just labs of stone Google all these apps, but once just scraps of code But skip back to chapter one and that boy Could have been jobs the idea could have been Apple That girl could have been Nina Simone the idea could have been freedom All he ever takes is one idea and a whole lot of effort whether it happens in a Campus storm room or a meeting board room He only ever takes one idea To change the world To the class of 2020 Congratulations, this year has been uniquely challenging Despite all the trials of 2020 and our attempts to cancel it all together. You have still managed to make it here Your graduation Some of you will have pulled all-nighters crowned for tests trouble to get an essay together on deadline day Others may never have to face that stress However, you made it you did it When we graduated so as we sat in crowded hot rooms decked out in our gowns Eager to hear our names called so we could have our opportunity to shake our hands with Gracia Michelle of our aim Us but this year things are different Who knows when we'll be able to sit together to acknowledge all of our achievements Although life has changed so much. We hope you feel just as proud You've made it through your degree overcoming the countless hurdles that have been throwing at you. That is something huge to celebrate Having reached this point. I remember something that Consuelo one of the so-as cleaners told us on a bigger line this year You she said us now have been put a small seed inside a seed to fight for justice and dignity For ourselves and for others Please do not let that seed die and keep watering it in the years to come That is definitely the strongest lesson I take away from so-as and I hope it is also a big one for you Never forget the power we hold as students as communities Especially when those seeds blossom collectively the task of summarizing a so-as experience Dispensing some kind of inspiration or worse advice and reassurance that the world is not that bad. It's not an easy one With our brains being constantly overloaded with the news that the world is basically ending It has never been clear that the world is very different from our microcosm at so-as But surely that's the whole point That is why as a community we value so-as that is why we are constantly fighting striving for a better so-as Whether that be through decolonizing our minds in the curriculum of the justice for workers campaign Whether standing in solidarity with the BDS campaign or the struggle in Brazil The South community is varied and diverse in its pursuit for a better world. I came to so-as a bright-eyed Bushy-browed 18 year old straight from the schticks in Ireland Not knowing what I had gotten myself into I began to embark on a journey that would reframe how I see the world from my course Meeting people across the globe and of submerging myself in student union activities like many of you I find myself leaving so-as with a completely new identity Pather 2.0 has a better understanding of different experiences and they have questioned the very things that they grew up to know So-as has given me the gift of an identity and the direction that I have always wanted in life For that I am eternally grateful To quote the late professor of social anthropology, Dr. Winnie the Pooh How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard? I've been so excited all year to write this speech and it is somewhat Disappointing that we're not able to be there with you to cheer you along and to watch you cross that stage But we're so proud of you. It has been an honor to serve you as your sabbatical officer this year And I send the best luck fortune and prayers whichever one works for you So that the future is as bright as you can dream it to be so whether you learned about Social constructs and colonial imaginaries in the Lucas lecture theater global hip-hop in G-52 The resource cast in Wolfson lecture theater all transformative justice in the Brunei gallery in this video We celebrate you Whether you're heading straight into employment Interfering to education or you're taking some time out.

I Wish you all the best for the future. I Hope that some of you will come back for a graduation next year But remember You're not leaving so as and neither is so as leaving you We're always going to be connected. There are so as graduates all over the world Take some time reflect Think about where we are in the world right now and How you can use the skills and knowledge that you've developed at so as to help to bring about change? I look forward to seeing you Building upon the legacy of so as alumni who are change makers in every corner of our globe If I were to describe so as it would definitely be that it's a place that is very diverse full of color full of life full of Energy and there's never a boring day at so as also saw us as a very diverse So you get to learn from different backgrounds and cultures My university my university experience and saw us was very nice. I really enjoyed it The most important thing that saw us taught me or taught us as students is that we can freely express our thoughts and opinions and We should always have questions in order to know who you really are I think the greatest thing that I've learned during my time at so as has been The importance and power of using your own voice whatever. It's a small thing or a most urgent matter expressing your opinion and Expressing your feelings it really can make difference and it really shapes not just who we are but also the words the words that surround us Definitely the drag shows Every moment I spent in the JCR with friends is definitely a great memory, but watching the drag shows was the absolute best The acceptance the body positivity and glamour of it all make these nights my absolute favorite at so as probably hanging out with my friends and doing the society work or enjoying the lectures and also Visiting my professors during their office hours and having a talk with them. It's real fun Of course the time spent with my fabulous teacher was it much later by any brain Jeffy and the fire alarm Went on and you were in the library Everyone was so serious, but we couldn't handle it. We were all laughing. I mean it always happens and so it's always my favorite The pharaoh love sounded the very same day my mother visited the university during my lecture So basically she came in just shouting danger danger fire We know us safe and sound teacher included. I think one of the weirdest moments I've had it so us would definitely be this online graduation But I'm so grateful that we are able to do this here This moment was probably when I had to wrap in Chinese in front of an audience for the Chinese New Year celebration I was definitely not ready for rap solo, but I'm pretty sure I nailed it anyway What is a typical so as students? I'd say such a creature doesn't exist But every person at so as is unique and brings their own beautiful cultural backgrounds and experiences to the university But if I had to really answer this question, I'd say a Person downing pints and talking endlessly about politics in the JCR is the closest I get to describing a typical so as students someone who would go to the library every day but would go to the JCR afterwards to party and Someone who is part of so many societies Well, I feel confident of my own ideas and I'm ready to share them with other people And of course I'm also ready to listen to others opinion and Taking the best of them. I think that I became a lot more open-minded and accepting of others and of myself Being in the middle of such a diverse environment as well as going on a year abroad in Japan really opened my mind To different cultures and experiences I've grown a lot and while I have learned a lot academically I'd like to think that I've grown it as a person and Everyone that saw us Allowed me to do that. I can say that I have become confident. I have grown up I'm not here three years ago at the age of 18. I'm from Azerbaijan originally So I'm international student here and it was quite challenging to leave in London at first and to study You know in such an environment, but it was also very rewarding So it really developed my confidence in myself and both life skills and practical skills, I would say And also at the end of the three years, I think I'm starting to get the rich jokes, which I never could But yeah, we still have a long way down the road Now a message for my fellow graduates I miss you all so much and we didn't have time to say goodbye properly and No matter where Miss Corona took us throughout the world I truly hope that we'll get that fancy ceremony and great party that we deserve as soon as possible Very well done for achieving your degree and the such special circumstances So now just go and celebrate because it is a way Finally, I would like to thank my parents my grandparents and friends for their unconditional support and love. Thank you It's a message from my fellow graduates. I just want to say that We all survived but on a serious note. I really want to congratulate everyone graduating today And I want to say that I want to wish everyone good luck and success in their lives and in their careers Congratulations to the class of 2020 Welcome to the Sawas alumni community class of 2020.

Have you ever asked yourself, man, what would it be like for me to be stuck in a room with six satanists? Well, I can tell you Jubilee sure has had that thought and they made a video about it. So we're going to react. Guys, I don't know how this video is going to go. I have not reviewed this video, but I've just heard that it's kind of wild. So, you know what, we're going to go in blind. One of them is a Christian. If the group discovers who the liar is, it will split a cash prize. If the liar survives, they win the entire prize. So how does everyone identify in the sense that we're atheists, agnostic? I'm a atheistic satanist from the satanic temple. Also atheist, TST? Yep. Yeah, same. Same. I was, hey, same, same. Wait, wait, no, no, no, no. I'm more traditional church of Satan kind of mentality. I actually identify as a Luciferian witch. I practice a lot of magic and occultism. I love your vibe, by the way. You practice magic, like close-up magic, like figure-card-type deal? Or are you actually pulling rabbits out of hats? Like, what's going on? Everyone looks amazing. I feel very underdressed. Going in, I was especially suspicious of Lisa because ballet flats. I actually learned about Satanism from a Jubilee video, and it's been about six months. So it really props to you guys for introducing me to it. A fish. OK, well, Jubilee is just like evangelizing people on Satanists. I think I did a video on that. So maybe she should watch my video. Or maybe you should like this video and subscribe so then people like her see my video instead of Jubilee's video and don't become Satanists instead become Christians. Yeah. I joined the temple a little over a year ago. In general, I love Halloween and anything spooky. So I was kind of just drawn to it to begin with. That's going to be a trigger for a lot of people that don't like Halloween. They're like, you see? You see this? Satanist lady likes Halloween. Don't celebrate Halloween. Do not do it. I was wrong, but bye. She was so offended. She's like, you guys are so wrong. I am a Satanist. I will prove myself to you. It's like, OK, it's OK, lady. It's not that deep. You'll come back. Another Jubilee video, they'll pick you up. They'll bring you back. When you practice your Satanism, it's mainly personal, you said, right? Like you don't really follow the temple or? No, I don't follow the TST. No, not at all. But you said more towards Leves and the church. I don't really like being tethered to anyone's rules or feel like I'm supposed to be in any kind of box. I think the TST does a really great work, but I also wish they kind of expanded because a lot of the focus is on abortion rights. And there's just so much going on in the world like environmentalism, racism. There are a lot of different factions up. Can we just say something here? Like the fact that the church of Satan or the Satanic temple or TST or whatever it is, the fact that they major, like their major issue is abortion and promoting abortion. There's like a correlation here. Satan, bad, abortion. I have a weird proposal. Is there a possibility that if we sniff each other that one person might smell really different? And I think it could be pheromones. Whoa, okay. I mean, maybe I'm into it. What?  Like what? Come sniff if you want. I'm gonna try it. Nope, not for it. Hypothesis, this is not our first time asking to sniff somebody, unfortunately. Please, I don't, I'm glad I'm not in this video because I would say no. I would say no and I would be caught. We counted all the votes and there's a tie. Okay. The tie is between Kera and Shelby. Each of you has 30 seconds to state your case. I really did just have to go about my life to figure out what it was that I believed and the core beliefs and the tenets of TST just are really who I am as a person, you know? The tenets of TST. So interesting, you know, like Satanism and Satanists are so like passionate about, we don't wanna follow your dang rules and we don't wanna follow your commandments and they're just made up and all this stuff. And then some random guy just decides, I'm gonna make a temple of Satan and I'm gonna write down all these commandments. And then people are like, I really relate with these commandments. I'm in the stage of just being really angry. The tenets really are something that I strive to live by because I think organized religion just causes more harm than it does actual humanity. So. Bro, what? Bro, wait, what? She just said I strive to live by the tenets and they're really important to me, but also I think organized religion is bad. Dude, what are you participating in? Dude, that's what you're participating in. Did somebody not tell you? That's what it is. It's organized. Somebody organized those commandments. Somebody organized the meaning. Somebody organized these, the literal organization of TST and this is a church of Satan and all these things. It's organized religion. What? She gone. I'm suspicious of you because strangely enough, you had no smell. And I was like sniffing into your armpits and stuff. I don't know what that means, but that's only- Wait, this lady is so weird. Like if this lady is the Christian, oh my goodness. Deny Christ right now. I'm an atheist. No, deny Christ. Deny the power of the Holy Spirit. I'll do it. There's no power in the Holy Spirit. There's no power in anything except humanity. Yeah, I don't believe in any supernatural. I don't believe in any God figure. I also agree. I am a skeptic. I don't feel good about this game at all. So I would not purchase it, but I'm saying now you go past that line of actually denying Christ. Like you can't do that, bro. Like even for a game, quote-unquote, like nah, that ain't it. Game over. Hi. I knew when Nathaniel denounced Christ and suspicious was off him that I was absolutely going to be eliminated. Please raise your hand if you think that the mole is still in the box and you would like to continue playing the game. It was definitely her. It was definitely her. I'll be very upset if a Christian runs out of here with $500. Yeah, me too. I wouldn't know. If the lights turn green, that means you voted the mole out and you win. If the lights turn red, that means that the mole is still in the box and you lose. Yes! Can the mole please reveal their identity in three, two, one. Love, guys. Yeah! Love, guys! I knew it. It was Kara the whole time. Of course it was her. We knew. We knew. We could tell. We could tell. Do I feel good about a Christian participating in this game? No, not after watching it. No, this was a bad move. So I'd identify as Christian, but it's super deconstructed. Definitely encourage everyone viewing to go research Satanism because it's a beautiful thing. That makes me... Whoa, wait, what? Bro, wait, what? Research Satanism because it's beautiful? That's not Christian, bro. I don't know what to say. I'm baffled. The whole priest up, this is the only Christian they could get to play this game. This is the reason. They seem like a solid Christian to play this game. They had to get like a super deconstructed Christian who thinks Satanism is beautiful. Bro, you think worshipping yourself is beautiful? You think that's a beautiful religion? You think what they stand for is beautiful? You know, killing unborn babies? Like, you think that's beautiful? Ah, no. No, no, no, no. Not beautiful, not good. Nism, because it's a beautiful thing. That makes me so happy because I was thinking, how could somebody actually research TST or the Satanic movement and not feel like it aligns with their morals of Christianity? God, no. What? Satanism is worship of self. It is glorifying Satan as the figure that freed us from the bondage of God. Basically, that's the whole idea. So when you're free from that, all you have is yourself. That's not the same, very different. I enjoyed everybody and the Christian didn't offend me like I thought they would. So that was awesome. You know why? You know why she didn't offend the lady? Because she didn't speak the truth. Straight up, right? Like the gospel offends people. God's truth offends people. And when all you say is, oh, I love your religion. It's so great. It's like everyone researched the TST or Satanism. It's such a beautiful religion.  The Bible says that God's word is offensive. The gospel is offensive to those who are perishing. Okay, so this might be out of left field, but I think this is a good analogy for what happens sometimes in our daily life. We adapt to the people around us if they have a certain belief system. We try to accommodate ourselves to fit in, and therefore we don't offend them in any way. But God calls us to stand out, to be set apart. Not that we're better than unbelievers, but we're just like a beggar that's found bread that's showing other beggars where they can find this bread of life. Don't water down the gospel just so you can fit in, and so you don't offend anybody. Hold to the foundation that God has given us. Thanks so much for watching, guys. I hope you enjoyed it.

Good morning everybody. If I could ask everyone to please squash to the middle if you can. My name is Michael Gran. I am from Los Angeles, California, and I am here to give this rather odd talk. I don't know why they accepted it other than I know the guy who knows the guy who set this room up. And I'm here to talk about, of all things, interactive fiction and the languages behind it. So the quick agenda is going to talk a little bit about me, about the three subgenres of interactive fiction. I'm going to talk about why hypertext interactive fiction is the most important type of interactive fiction for beginner code programmers today. I'm going to introduce Twine and its scripting language Harlow. I'm going to talk about the time I tried to write an interactive fiction in Guile.  Who am I? I neglectfully maintain a bunch of Guile packages and, of course, my most important package, which is libzmodem in case you ever need to write zmodem functionality for your BBS. And if you want to hire me, I can help you with U.S. government standards for software and hardware procurement. Who's excited about that? Procurement! Yeah!  Various semi-legal notices. The only thing important here is that this does not represent the views of the United States government or my employer. I'm obligated to say this. Thank you very much. So what is interactive fiction? Interactive fiction is a type of game that is text-only or text-dominant. It focuses on story and usually puzzles. It is not real time. And it describes a situation and then expects the user to make a choice or a situation. There's three subgenres. I've invented these myself. So say I. There's classic interactive fiction, which people of a certain age, my age, will remember as Zork. Use a text parser for input. It focuses largely on object puzzles. There's hypertext interactive fiction, which uses hyperlinks as input. And this tends to have stylistically more narrative flow. And there are visual novels, which all of you Hentai people will know as dating sims. They are more graphical. They typically present a picture of a character and have associated dialogue. Usually they focus on character relationships. And they also use hyperlinks or mouse interaction as input. So three quick examples so you know what I'm talking about. This is classic interactive fiction. They write a rubber mat saying welcome to Zork lives by the door. You type a short phrase, open door. It tells you that whatever you want to do can't be done because that is the experience of classic interactive fiction.  Except for the one last point that you didn't get. Hypertext interactive fiction. This is something that I stole from an I.F. called cat petting simulator 2014. It gives a situation and then you choose one of the possible choices with your mouse. And then visual novels. This is the general graphical experience of visual novels. You have a background. The characters are sprites. And then the text is the dialogue that the characters are saying. And you click through that eventually saying please go out with me sensei. And then they do. That's visual novels. Okay. But what I think is most interesting about hypertext interactive fiction because it is so simple to write is that it brings in underrepresented voices. And it actually creates a lot of diversity in the game space that you don't normally see. And this is the point of this talk. So I'm going to talk very quickly about four underrepresented voices that were expressed in these four interactive fictions before I start talking about the technology behind it. As cold as the grave is a rather standard interactive fiction. It's got magic. It's got lesbians making out. This is a very common interactive fiction but not so common in games in general. And I think that is one of the beautiful things about hypertext interactive fiction because it is easy to create. It brings in these minority voices. Beneath Flows was actually a game created using funding for the Canadian First Nations Game Fund. So it is as far as I know the only game I've ever played that has something to do with First Nations Arctic Canadian culture, which again is not something that you see very often in Assassin's Creed. Depression Quest is a game that I have played and is quite personal to me. And it is a study of what it feels like to have depression. And the interesting thing about this is how it subverts the text, the form of interactive fiction in that it will show you a list of choices that you can click on, but you can only click on those choices if you are not depressed enough to make those choices. So that's a very interesting game. Also it has the unusual experience of having kicked off Gamergate, so you may have heard it through that context.  It describes really well the sense of hypervigilance that you see, that your inability to let things go. And I think this is really interesting, and so I think people should check that out. Loosen Thread Games is where that lives. So on websites like Itch.io, there are hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds of twine games, and I just did a quick poll of the 2,000 twine games on Itch.io. 100 or 5% are tagged as LGBT, which is interesting because it means that the percentage of LGBT games on Itch.io is roughly equal to the percentage of the general population, which is not something that you have in games as a whole. There's been a lot of commentary about how Twine is an interesting first step into bringing in feminist voices, and you can read about that on websites like Feminist Frequency or the scholarly discussions of Carolyn Pettit, if you know her from GameSpot. So a digression. Has anybody ever heard of Nano-Rymo? All right, so Nano-Rymo is an event that happens in November where people promise to write 50,000 words. It's an amateur novel writing event. That is the only thing that you say. You sign up at the beginning of the month, you say, I'm going to write 50,000 words and you bash it out or you don't. I've done it for several years in a row. I have several half-finished garbage novels, which will never see the light of day. But the important thing about it is that it brings in amateur voices and amateur voices with a low barrier of entry. So when you have this wide community, the topics that you see are different than the topics that you find in fiction in general. And from my point of view, going to the Hollywood write-in in Hollywood, California, most Nano-Rymo novels are magic, romance, lesbians, and vampires. And these novels are terrible, but they are the novels that people want to write and there's no barrier to present them from writing these novels, and that's what makes it beautiful. So who makes tiny personal games? So you want to make a game. It's never going to make any money. Don't ever go into games for the money. You don't have to beg your friends to play it, but there's a certain enthalpy, a certain barrier of entry to a game, which is you have the time and energy to do hundreds of hours of free labor, you have the skill, you have the vision, and you have the dedication. And so if these meet a certain threshold, you can create a game. But these are four different barriers to entry and people who don't meet these barriers of entry, you've lost what they might be contributing to the culture. So here I have my Venn diagram. Thank you very much. You've got people with a story to tell, people with coding skills, and people with time and energy, and you need all three of those things together to create an indie game. And so when you have people with a story to tell but they don't have the coding skills, you've lost their voice. You've lost their contribution to society. And when you have people with the coding skills but they don't have the time or the energy, you've also lost their voice. You've also lost their contribution to society. So interactive fiction in the three genres has three domain-specific languages. Classic interactive fiction, you've got Inform, Adrift, and TADS. Inform, if you're interested in language design, is bonkers. I recommend you check out what Inform looks like. It's beautiful. It is an attempt to write something as close to English as possible, and it's very, very odd. Hypertext interactive fiction is almost entirely dominated by Twine, which has two scripting languages that are almost identical, Harlow and Ice Cube. I'm going to mostly be talking about Twine featuring Harlow. And visual novels are often written in Renpi. I believe that Twine and Harlow are the simplest free tool to write interactive fiction. Harlow's a scripting language that converts Harlow script down into HTML and JavaScript bundles. It's something like HTML plus PHP in that you have content interrupted by code and that each top-level page has an experience. But simple Harlow is simple for any skill level, while complicated Harlow is still complicated. Demons have a work. Let's try a demo. Okay. And how do I make this the one window? I think if I try F8. Can I drag this over? Yes, I can. All right. So this is Twine. I'm going to write a game right now. You double-click this until it finally decides to work. Hello. Thank you very much. I can't see this all. So here's my first room, my first passage. And so I've written it. These are of course hypertext links. I shut down this and it's going to say, oh, do you want to create these two new passages for these broken links? Yes. Spelling is hard. I don't really believe it in the first place. Open for me, baby. You can do it. So let's play this awesome game. I know that you are really excited to see how this works. So I want to go to Fosdame. I am going to forget my jacket. I have frozen to death. So that's it. At the slimpest level, this is what Twine is like. And at the simplest level, it's available for all levels of experience. But I'm going to talk a little bit about how it works in practice. So again, this is a simplest Harlow. It renders a hyperlink and it jumps to a module by that name. It has basic styles, emphasis, strong, italic. So far, so good. Still newbie-friendly. And then when you start trying to do things like change the color or introduce images, it all starts going off the rails. There are variables in scope. The variables are delimited by sigils. The code appears in parentheses interrupted by keywords that have colons. So this text here would let you choose a sentence based on the value of the variable size. The sigils have on the variables demonstrate scope. And it has various control structures. And this is where this introductory language starts going off the rails. It has various lambda-like structures. And I probably won't go into the details, but here this one on the bottom, it searches a global variable. It limits the contents of the global variable by a test and then uses that test to print a list. So this is what happens when you start using templating languages. This is the risk and reward of templating languages opposed to your own languages. The reward is that it lets you focus on the task and to avoid boilerplate and to simplify. But the risk is that because you think it's readable, you think you understand it. And these are very different things. As anybody who has ever seen a mysterious Ruby error message will confer. You've got the leaky abstraction problem. Your debugging experience may suffer. So templating languages often make simple things simpler but make complex things more complicated. So I once wrote an interactive fiction in Guile. I was impressed by the experience of Twine. And I thought, you know, I can make Guile just as simple and as readable as Twine. And that is, of course, not true because scheme is scheme. If you want to, as an aside, if you want to write your own reader for scheme that doesn't have parentheses, you can look at these two projects, Wisp, which they'll talk about later, and Guile Reader. But this is a code snippet from my script for interactive fiction. This is Room 17 or Experience 17. Anybody who has spent a lot of time in scheme will notice that this is a mixture of quasi-quotation and XML notation. But in terms of scheme, in terms of readability, I think this came out okay. But this is about as readable as scheme is going to get. As an aside, I wanted to talk about publishing because I think publishing is a very important part of what makes something new be friendly. And publishing my Guile game to Itch.io was not easy in any sense of the word. First of all, Itch.io is not generally a Linux shop, so I had to compile this all in Windows 32. And GTK3 is not typically a good Windows platform, so getting all of this together in a statically executed dynamic zip file was quite difficult. Okay. Minimalism. This is kind of what I'm trying to get to. Minimalism for geeks is not the same thing as minimalism for noobs. Minimalism for geeks, we all understand, easy to define, easy to explain, easy to parse, and easy to run. But minimalism for noobs is a different set of requirements. It's easy to learn, easy to understand, easy to fix, and easy to share. People in Lua already know this. They've already got this down. But everyone else, we need to take a lesson for this. Your introductory language is too complicated. The reason why I am standing here now is because of a computer that was in existence before most of you were born, the TRS-80, which you used to buy at a store called RadioShack, which is now bankrupt. And the first program that I learned was this one. Eight-year-olds me thought this was hilarious. And so what it does is it prints the word poopy over and over until you hit break.  And that is a rather profound concept when you think about the journey that I have gone from the 1970s to now. So you may recoil at basic, and any language designer will recoil at basic, but it was the start of my journey. So how should kids start on their journey today? Simplicity and sharing cannot be an afterthought. You have to be able to show people what you've done if you want people to be excited about it. Kids these days, like y'all, kids these days, they expect their games to be either browser, app, or Steam. So for free software, you're pretty much just talking about the browser. There are several websites that you publish your twine game and make sharing twine games simple. Ichio and Philomila are two good examples. I think that all of our languages need a quick strategy to share our code on the web. There's a couple of ways that you can get to that. If you can compile your language to WebAssembly, you can do something like that. You can use a GIS terminal emulator and create a service. You can use both strategies to creating a sharing website for your language. But my conclusion, tools like twine and Harlow have created a low barrier to entry, and that low barrier to entry has brought in voices that would never have occurred in games in the mainstream or in programming in the mainstream. And when that barrier to entry is low enough, the created works can represent a broad range of voices. And I hope that what you take away is that you too can work on making these barriers low and making minimalism for noobs as well. And that's my presentation. I won't go into the theology behind this, but trust me, it's a joke, it's hilarious. Thank you. Any questions? Yes? Yes. The question was about the difference between twine and JavaScript. Right. Well, programming in a general sense is really just about learning how to make logical decisions and learning how to make things flow. And you have to start developing those skills about there are trees, there are control structures. And I think twine is still an entry point into that, even if it's not going to make you a back-end guru. Next question? Yeah, the question was about packaging for EPUBs. Yeah, I think that would work, and I think that EPUBs have come a long way. I haven't spent an incredible amount of time with EPUBs, other than reading the file format and how one puts them together. But yeah, no, what makes EPUBs shareable is that there is a super logic behind it. Right, exactly. Yeah, I do like the idea behind it. I can't say that I know too much about it. All right, thank you for coming, and I'll be around. Oh, I should thank you for powering this up. I have a battery pack if we need it. You get three tries, right? Display port, or mini-display port. Off the back. That's awful tiny. You tested this this morning, and it worked fine. Do you have a different resolution? Can you do that? I don't think I can. I told you though I used something that was direct. VGA? Yeah, you're not allowed to use that. It won't go into recording. Is Linux, I presume, so we can use X render? This is NetBSD, I'm sure. That makes it a little bit harder. Let me just interrupt for a second and just attach this to you. Is there a NetBSD expert here for video resolution? Or increasing the phone size? Also, just the screen in the video description. And that should be readable from the video, but not the keyboard.


Hey y'all, welcome to what Chelsea eats today. I'm gonna share with you my grocery haul that I got from Whole Foods today. And if you want help on your fibroid healing journey, go down in the description box and check out the Fibroid Detox Workshop on Demand. It can help you on your healing journey. With that, there are some options for ongoing support. So let's get right into the video. So here is what I got from my husband and I. These are pretty much staples that we use all the time. There's a few new things in here, but we always do fresh blueberries. And I am in love with flavor bombs. They're not organic, but the regular tomatoes did not look good. So I got flavor bombs. I just washed them and cut them up and put them in my salad. Next, we have blackberries. I don't love blackberries, but what I do is I chop them up really small sometimes or chop them in half and then I can tolerate them. It's a texture thing for me, but they're really good for fibroid healing. And triple berry mix. If you haven't gotten on the triple berry mix, especially this one from Wyman's, you need to get on it because it is excellent for your smoothies and for healing. Next is broccoli. Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable. It helps to metabolize excess estrogen out of the body so it's excellent to have some broccoli. Black seeded grapes are excellent for detoxification. I love to freeze the grapes and eat them like while I'm watching a movie. That's my popcorn. So there's a tip. Aloe vera juice. I like the whole leaf. If you have constipation issues or your stomach is just a little bit upset or just you need your gut healed in general, aloe vera juice is excellent to add to your smoothies or just add it to your lemon water and drink it in the morning. And of course, watermelons are not in season, but I eat watermelons all year round if I can find them. So this one is going to be a watermelon smoothie. Next is raisins. I love adding raisins to my salads because it gives me just that little bit of sweet and it also is a texture thing in my salads. Next is radicchio. Radicchio is excellent for salads. I cut it up really small, but it's a bitter lettuce. So what it does is help with your liver. That's the main benefit of why I eat it. Sushi rolls, nori. I love them because I want to do something other than just salads. So there you have it. I'll give you guys a recipe video with nori sheets. But I love to have fresh seasonings on hand. Frontier is my favorite. I use seasonings for my salads and my salad dressings. Next is baby spinach. My husband loves to put spinach in his smoothies. I like it too, but he is the spinach person. But remember to rotate your greens. So do like spinach and kale or spinach and collards. So here's my second green that I have here that'll last us a few days here. So chopped kale. I think I'm gonna make a kale salad out of that one. Then we have some apples.  I'm not really an apple person. I love apples, but I don't just go grab an apple. But that's his thing. Those are gala apples. But the next game-changing thing that you should add to your diet is microgreens. Microgreens are so mineral-rich and they are a living food. It takes your healing up a notch when you add microgreens and sprouts to your diet. Next are avocados. I add avocados to my salads. They're a great, healthy fat. Also an anti-inflammatory is turmeric and ginger. I love adding these to my juices and you can add them to your smoothies as well. So if you have pain in your body or if you get menstrual cramps or you're feeling bloated, use these anti-inflammatory root vegetables like turmeric and ginger. You can even add garlic. I have some garlic here, but I'll talk about that in a minute. But white onions, add them to your salads. They're excellent for antioxidants and they also help with the healing in your body. Lemons, of course, I love for salad dressings and limes, I love for salad dressings, but I like to put them in my water too. Garlic, add that garlic also for its anti-inflammatory properties to move the inflammation out of your bodies. If you didn't realize this, fibroids and reproductive issues are an inflammatory condition. So adding things like turmeric, ginger, garlic, onions, these things are gonna help move the inflammation out of your body. And also my oranges, I forgot to mention those. I love them for my water or just to add to salad dressings or to eat for a snack. These are my menstrual supplies that I will be using this month, Nature Care because they didn't have what I like at the store, but I do like Nature Care as well. This is the regular brand, the regular size. And also I like to use the panty liners as well. I don't bleed heavy anymore, so wonderful. So the next thing I'm gonna use is another type of onion, which is a green onion. You add those to your salads or your soups or whatever you're making. This next thing is jalapeno. You guys know I like to put the jalapeno in the juice or the smoothies for circulation. Get that circulation going to move that stuff that is in your body out that doesn't belong there. And also the lazy woman's salad mix, which is spring mix, because you don't have to wash it, you just put it in a bowl or you can chop it so that you can make, put more greens in your bowl. So that's what we have for this week. This will not last us a full week. It'll last us like a day and a half, maybe. And then my bananas. I like to stock up on bananas because I like to let them get really ripe. And once they're really ripe, I peel them and put them in freezer bags and put them in the freezer for my smoothies. So this is my grocery haul. I hope you enjoyed it. Please comment below and let me know what your favorite part was. If there is a particular recipe that you would like me to share with you, please comment that below. If you like this video, like it. Share it with somebody you think it could help.  Lots of love.
