Today I want to talk to you about a tool that you've probably been using already if you're familiar with Lightroom But you may have not thought about using it in this way And so today I want to show you a Different way of thinking about this tool or how you could set up this tool in relation to your photograph Especially if you're dealing with an image that has some really kind of weird angles to it a lot of times You might see this in a landscape Such as this image here where you have mountains in the photograph that are uneven or maybe even an architecture shot Where you have elements that are uneven this trick can really save the day for you So we're gonna jump into Lightroom and show you exactly what it is I'm talking about and the tool that we're referring to today is the graduated filter So what you might already know is that you can apply the graduated filter From you know from the top of a photo you can Use it from the bottom of a photo or even from the left or from the right of your image But we're not actually going to use it in any of those ways. We're actually going to use it At a diagonal instead of the traditional like top down bottom up sort of thing But the the key is is the thing that you might not know is when you add a Graduated filter to your photograph you end up with this little pin And what you probably don't know is that you can actually move This pin around and when I'm dealing with an image such as this one. That's exactly what I like to do Let me let me show you exactly what I'm talking about if I hover over the pin I can actually drag this pin and move this pin Anywhere that I want to and the reason that it does this is because this pin Acts as a pivot point think of it as an access point kind of like a seesaw, right? If you're sitting on a seesaw with a friend This pivot point or this pin becomes the axis at which the seesaw Rotates and so if I move this pin To say another part of the photograph. I'm going to move it way up here in the upper left hand corner What I can do now is go to the other side of this middle line And if you look real closely you'll notice that the arrow or or plus sign has now gone to like What I like to call is a like a boomerang arrow or a rotate an arrow And I can click and drag and rotate This whole adjustment at the angle which makes sense to the photograph in this case I have this mountain side. That's pretty steep. So I'm going to adjust this and if I turn my overlay on You can see exactly how this is being affected in this case whatever as green is being affected Which means that this is actually backwards. So what I want to do is rotate it around So that it goes more like this. I'll move the pin up here and then I can kind of move this into position where I want it and From here I can make any Necessary adjustments that relate to this photograph once I have the graduated filter exactly where I want it the adjustments are You know to your discretion for example in this photograph I might want to you know add a little bit of a little bit of warmth or a little bit of color down here I might want to maybe boost my clarity add some sharpness play with my shadows and exposure and You know just like that. I can I can make some some changes necessary changes to this photograph I'm going to do it one more time because I have the other side of the photograph that isn't being affected so I'll choose a new grade graduated filter and I will click and drag and Move this pivot point up here and Then I can change the angle at which I Want this to be There you have it turn the overlay off and then make my necessary adjustments As a little added bonus if I have you know these repeating angles even though one is on one side of the photo and the other is on the other side of the photo instead of going through the work of trying to duplicate All the settings a second time if I delete this graduated filter What I could do instead is the very first graduated filter that I used I might choose to right-click and duplicate it Which will allow me then to move this pin Where I need it Because the settings that I applied on the left side of the photograph have already been determined I I don't want to have to go through all of that work when I can just duplicate this graduated filter Move it to the other side and then maybe just tweak the adjustments You know slightly so maybe maybe the the the shadows are a little You know bright so I'm gonna pull those down and maybe You know reduce the clarity a little bit and You know that's it All the other adjustments that I did to the left side I actually like the way they look on the right side So the trick here is to use that pin as your pivot point and then if you have another part of the picture That isn't getting any love just duplicate the graduated filter move it over and Readjust, you know using your pivot point trick there. So Hopefully you enjoyed this tip. I find it extremely useful. I use it all the time and Hopefully you'll add this tool to your tool bag. Thank you so much for watching. My name is Adam I'm out


Moving right along to S 30 draft 1.1, page one of three. Derek, do you want to post the bill? Yes, absolutely. draft 1.1 of S 30. You also have written testimony in our from Chris, Chris Bradley. On the web page. So, Eric patch with the office of legislative council again here to now look at S 30, which is that the committee strike all. So again, this is version 1.1 because it's the first committee amendment. You'll see that the only change here between this and the previous version that we looked at. I'll get to in a moment, but I'm just bringing it up first because it's actually related to lines three and four. See that the bill has introduced was titled an act relating to prohibiting possession of firearms and childcare facilities hospitals in certain public buildings. I know this wasn't something that came up in committee discussion, but I noticed it as I was redoing the amendment that you may want to change the title. You may want to change the title. If you want to change the title, you don't have to. But given that the bill now. Is limited to possible buildings. You may, I put that language in there to. To change the title in case you decide you want to do that, but I could certainly take it out if you don't. I think it's a good idea to change the title. Absolutely. I think the committee is unanimous on that. Sounds good. So the language of the substance of the amendment is, as we discussed before, it prohibits knowingly present knowing possession of a firearm while within a hospital building. That's lines 10 to 11. Again, modeled on the, the prohibition in schools within a school building that says within a hospital building. So one year misdemeanor. One year. It's $4000 fine. Same language, providing the exemption or exception for law enforcement officers. That notice. The required hosting of the signs that's. Virtually identical to the language in. Court house provision. I think Alice might have had a question. Oh, sorry. I was just wondering. Going back to where you said hospital building. It would include like any kind of a building affiliated with the hospital. In other words, doctors offices, half a block away or anything like that, who's part of the hospital. As long as it's as long as it's part of the hospital, yes. When you say, but what do you mean when you say part of the hospital the physical plant or doesn't include all those other office locations for doctors who are part of the hospital staff. When I say part of the hospital I mean the licensed entity. So, if that license entity includes those buildings I would read it is probably coming under the provision yes, but has to qualify as the licensed hospital. And if that's the case that's one of their buildings I think that's what's covered. Okay. If it's a doctor who is a hospital employee I mean full fledged employee not somebody just has privileges there has an office doesn't include his office or her office. I don't know the answer that serenity. I wouldn't think so. I mean, if you take the hospital is licensed and then you could have people working remotely who are employees. If they're working off site, they're not working at the hospital. So I take hospital building to mean the physical plant that is licensed. This goes back to what's the definition of the hospital and discuss that earlier. I asked the question because the orthopedic division of the Southwest medical center is located. Actually in a different completely different building on a different street than the hospital even though they're, you know, it's often saying it's in the same vicinity. So that the question became is, and I believe the answer was no that that orthopedic area was not because they don't perform surgery there. On the definition, I think it all revolves around the definition. We looked at this earlier. It wasn't really clear. I didn't think it is an Eric, the definition that's right there. Eric does that give any clue to how expansive it is. Now remember the definition is in the licensing statute. So this is all hospitals that have to be licensed. So if you come under this definition, then see it's in the licensing of hospitals chapter and you'll see it like there in subdivision one and then go to primary to the maintenance and operation of diagnostic therapeutic facilities for inpatient medical or surgical care of individuals. Okay, so I mean, we had a discussion about inpatient and for, I think the person on the street and patient certainly means in the hospital. But because when you go for surgery and you have it done in the office that's called outpatient surgery. So I guess it's number one that we would be going away. Do you have a good answer, Senator Nica? Primarily. I hope it does. Thanks. Sure. Let's see where were we. We were on the notice provisions as well so again that's the discussion of who's covered by this which is the tracks back to the definition of a hospital. And again as the prohibition is on knowingly possession of knowing possession of firearm while within the hospital building hospitals required to post conspicuously at each public entrance notice of these provisions in other words notice that possessing a firearm there is illegal. And that's the end of that piece. The hospital piece. Currently the capital complex study is still in here. And this was the study by the capital complex security advisory committee and you'll see that it's been changed to firearms. Remember originally or previously anyway it was a report on weapons in the capital complex and the committee wanted to change the weapons to firearms. So the requirement is that the study committee the sorry the oversight committee. The advisory committee report to the justice justice oversight committee by December 1st see that date was changed as well. It was December 15th originally to provide time in case there's legislation to meet the introduction deadlines and the report talk as required to talk about how possession of firearms the capital complex is regulated past situations into which people have possessed firearms have those those have been handled and make any recommendations if they have any. If there should be legislation to address the issue. And lastly you see the effective date as well as the changing of the title to an act relating to prohibiting possession of firearms within public building within hospital building sorry. I think that's it. Yeah. Mr chair. Yes. I just wanted to since I don't think it got posted on the website I just wanted to mention that we had all of us an email from Stephanie Winters. This is on behalf of Vermont Medical Society physician leadership American Academy of pediatric pediatrics American College of Surgeons Vermont Academy of Family Physicians Vermont ophthalmological society Vermont orthopedic society Vermont psychiatric association Vermont Society of anesthesiologists and Vermont Association of osteopathic physicians and surgeons. That's from the letters from all of their executive directors in support of this provision the hospital provision. It is on the website as well. Okay thank you Peggy. I don't have a website but thanks for. I have one, two, one question in the bill Eric in the schools, it says, no person shall knowingly possess a firearm or a dangerous weapon while within a school building or on a school bus. There should be no person shall knowingly possess a firearm or dangerous deadly weapon on any school property with intent to injure another person. Does that mean that you can possess a firearm on school property, as long as you don't intend to injure another person, or does it mean that is it with. So either two separate provisions there. Please. Yes, exactly as you said Senators here's. And you may recall, I wasn't here when the school statute was first passed but I have been involved in some of the amendments over the years, and that provision I remember is intended to exactly permit that so that, for example, if someone is. I remember the discussion and committee and someone is, you know, driving up to pick up their child at high school and they happen to have a hunting rifle in the car, but they didn't bring it into the building, you did not want that to be illegal. So the possession as long as you're not have it with the intent to injure anybody, you can still have it on school property as long as you don't bring it into the building. And this bill is so one might say that this bill is consistent with the school, with the school building in that the standard is knowing. Correct. Yes, Senator Sears. Yes. I was on education, I believe for that debate of the second part. And another piece was that some school properties in rural areas, people hunt in large wooded areas and they were worried that they might stray on to what was technically school property. And so, again, the idea was in school buildings. Knowingly, and then there's an additional for the for the grounds of school buildings with the intent piece. So that was also designed to have people not be caught up in the net if they were. If they were, had their hunting rifles with them outside. Other comments, questions. I guess we can take the the bill down. There's only four of us. And what's new with Norton protection, my protection's been updated. Okay. That's all I can see right now unfortunately, not you but my Norton actions been updated. I'm really thrilled about it but as soon as I oh, there, I've gotten back to you now that my Norton security is updated. I know you're all happy for me. So here we are. So, our discussion yesterday, I, I thought people kind of expressed where they were on the bill, with the exception of Senator Nica. So I, I think in some ways, that's the missing data pointers. Senator Nica how you, how you are looking at the bill now. I'm thinking about it and thinking about it and weighing all the parts. I do think that I actually like the trespass piece that is in place now I think it. It, it works. If someone bent on terrible destruction will come into the hospital if they want to no matter what unless there's like, you know, screening devices at the door. I know that there are many people who are absolutely very very scared, many of them expressing to me that they're afraid of many of the people who come into in the hospital emergency rooms. They do come in some are dealing with severe mental illness and the staff there have felt they've been dangerous to have in the emergency room and are afraid of some of them. And I think those for those persons and indeed there are many people very stressed out right now due to COVID lack of services that they might normally be receiving and have been arriving at the emergency room. I've been looking at both ends of this I think there certainly are issues that I don't like in it and there are other issues that I know few people feel they need so I'm basing my vote on that to see when I vote. Well, I, I, it's. I guess. So if you had a tie vote. It doesn't pass out. It doesn't pass. Is that correct, Senator Sears. That would be correct. Senator whites not here. Yes, I can wait till Tuesday. Well, I didn't think that dangerous to be since the bill doesn't have to go to some other committee. Right, so in the would not pass would not make crossover. In the event there is a tie. I'm the bill could still go to the floor with the tie vote or even a no vote. Do you have a. I, I think, Peggy, could you see if secretary bloomers available. I, I think I can answer that because I spoke with the secretary. Okay. Yesterday. You, you need a positive vote to have the bill go out of committee. That, that could be a positive vote to report it unfavorably. So in other words, the reason why I ask Alice is. If, if you can support the bill, then it would be three one and it would move for the Senate to debate. And if it was. Well, if Senator White were here and it was to three. I, I, honestly, I would make a motion. To report it unfavorably. And then ask that the people who oppose it vote yes on that, which would take it to the floor with an unfavorable recommendation. Yes, I understand. Okay. I'm worried about what happens to a bill that comes out unfavorably on the floor. I, I, I'm uncomfortable with that, not knowing where folks are happy. Where folks are happy ads. It's really the last time I had an unfavorable vote was the scene. It's not a general affairs committee or the general economic development general affairs committee negatively because Howard Dean wanted to make sure it was dead. Wasn't very. It's not a good policy. I don't know what the, what the Senate would do with the bill if it comes out unfavorably. You mean the body itself. Yeah. I think I recall one being there previously that. Well, maybe it wound up being sent back to committee, but they certainly have been out there before. But that that doesn't mean anything in terms of what I'm going to do. No, I understand. I'm just saying, I'm not sure I want to vote on. Does that leave it open to all kinds of amendments. Commitments. Amendments. I, I, I can't speak for any other senator, but I will say that I've, I've had discussions broadly in the Senate. And I believe the support is there for the strike all. And I believe that there's the will to have it move through on amended. Because if there are amendments that are substandard, I will vote against the bill. Yeah. And I, I will repeat, I support the strike all and would not. You know, be supportive of amendments. I would like to say that I appreciate the changes that have been made to the bill with regard to its limitations now. And putting in knowingly, which is certainly vital, I think, to the bill and. Well, being a people of the state. Alice, can I, can I. I don't know how you'll receive this.  Well, it's. I hear from you. If this chair wants. Yeah, sure. I was just wondering. And again, it's difficult because you haven't expressed which way you're leaning. But I believe this is an issue that should be discussed by the Senate. So my, my primary. Thought is that it would be it would be best to have it somehow come before the Senate. If, if you were to vote the bill out of committee, you could certainly then vote however you please on the bill on the floor. And one possibility might be to make that clear that you were voting it out of committee without commitment about about a later vote. To allow the Senate to take it up. Yes, I'm aware of that. Thanks. Sorry. No, that's right. Good reminder. So, there's a revolution to do something. Well, I have two motions, but I, I. Well, it's difficult if I don't if I don't know where people are. On the issue. So, the first motion fails, you can always make another motion. If the first motion fails, where it is tied. Failure. Then I will ask for the secretary to come down. I did reach out to secretary bloomer. I have not heard back.  Do you have any. I would like to set contact him by email. Email and then I did try and do a. Like an automatic invite. Is there. I'm going to call. I'm going to call him on his cell right now. Okay, great. Thank you. Yeah. You might want to mute yourself when you call him. Thank you. Senator Bruce, do you have an emotion? I do. I would, I would ask that the committee move the bill favorably. As amended. Actually, I think we should probably move the amendment first. Oh, then I would vote to amend as per the. Committee amendment offered by Eric Fitzpatrick just now. The motion is to. The motion is to amend S 30. As seen in the amendment that we just dealt with. Which would amend it so that you wouldn't have the government buildings. And. Child care any longer in the bill. That would be titled. This is for technical clarification. I don't think you can address the amendment as. From Eric Fitzpatrick. What I meant was the one we just made. The one we just made. The one we just made. And that's what I meant. And that's what I meant. That's what I meant. Eric Fitzpatrick. Committee amendment draft. Graph 1.1 of S 30 dated 311. 2021. 155. Is there any further discussion? Not Peggy. Could you please call the roll? Do you need a second? No, not to amend the bill. Oh, not to amend it. Senator Benning. No. Senator Nica. Yes. Senator. Yes. Senator. Ruth. Yes. Senator Sears. Yes. We have now amended the bill. The next motion would be to report favorably S 30 as amended. So moved. Senator. Ruth has moved that report favorably S 30 as amended. Ready for the vote. Yep. I am. Unless there's any discussion. Hearing none. Peggy, would you please call the roll? Senator. Senator. Senator. Senator. Senator. Senator. Senator. Senator. Senator Denning. No. Senator. Yes. Senator. Yes. Senator Sears. Yes. Motion carries 311. I would like to say I'm sorry that. Senator White was not able to.  She participated very actively. In the last meeting. Okay. I'm going to take a. Presentation of this in our committee. All right. I'm going to take a. Reporting. Who is reporting the bill? Oh. Not me. Senator Bruce. Would you like to? I would like to report the bill. Senator Bruce. And same thing, Eric. I'll wait for you for the. Edited version. to have Michelle, I know she was somewhere else. Actually, not till 1030. All right. If she's available, we'll try to get back at 1020. If she's available at 1020. OK. I'll email her and let you guys. Yeah, that'll be a 15 minute break. Eric, thank you so much for all three bills today. Thank you, Eric. I don't know what it means. But very, as always, very professional. Very well done. Thank you, Senator, I appreciate it. And while the last vote was not unanimous, obviously, I want to do my own thanks to the committee on S3. That's a really important bill. Hopefully, we can get the House to deal with it and provide public service. We'll see you all at 1020. Very good.


Welcome to your friendly neighborhood amputee Q&A part 2. Good morning, my beautiful friends. Welcome back I did a Q&A video I want to say about a month ago, but there are so many more of you here now And so I put out I call on the community tab on my channel So check that out if you don't know what exists and also on Instagram So follow me there if you don't already if you feel like it for questions So I'm gonna get through as many of those as I possibly can without making this video way too long and boring you guys So let's dive in also real quick I've linked videos below that answers some of the other questions you guys had like what happened in the first place Our first question is from footy wish as I'm not sure if that's how you say your name Let's hope so. Have you always been so positive about your operations and procedures the answer is yes and no I As we know I've had many many operations and procedures not just on my ankle. I've also had Wrist surgery. I don't know if you can see this guy there. Maybe I've also had knee surgery. I've had heart surgery I was supposed to have brain surgery I think that is basically it the first many years that I was having surgeries I was positive But I think it was a faked positivity like I felt like I had to be positive because people had started congratulating me for being Positive and I was like, oh, I have to keep being positive if I want people to like me This is when I was a teenager like 13 14 15 16 and so what other people thought about me really mattered to me and I think that I Projected an image that wasn't necessarily authentic. I didn't really know myself at that point I mean like what teenager totally does we're all figuring ourselves out and so I went through life Not like bitter or negative But I didn't allow myself to really feel anything Because it was scary because it was hard because it was difficult and so I just pretended like everything was fine It wasn't until a couple years ago that I think I really processed all those emotions felt Angry and bitter and I'm sure I probably still have some stuff left to process But that allowed me to actually look at things in a more positive and optimistic light and that allowed me to go into this surgery With I think a more realistic view knowing that like it will be okay, but it's also gonna be really hard Like it's also gonna suck like I talked about in a previous video. I think that's what real positivity actually is It's not always being happy, but it's looking at things and knowing that it will be okay eventually from edfw Were you ashamed at first when you went out wearing your process? That I think they meant prosthetic they said prostate, but hey autocorrect is a funny thing, right? No, I wasn't ashamed when I went with my prosthetic for the first time, but it definitely was weird I have this really odd thing I know a lot of amputees who like wanted to hide their Prosthesis or their prosthetic parts because they don't want people to know that they're different. I feel like for me This is only for me like literally for nobody else like I feel like that's Like I can't do that. Even if I feel weird about it. I What I don't want to hide it. I want people to know it's there And so I've never felt ashamed about it. I have felt very conspicuous and odd about it I feel weirder going out without it because like right now I can't wear it at all So when I'm out in public, it's just me and chopped off leg Which you don't see very often in public You definitely see amputees with prosthetic legs a lot more than people without any leg Natalie Jodlis writes What advice would you give to the caregiver of someone who recently went through an amputation? I think it's got to be really hard to be on that side of things I'm an amputee. So I like one through the surgery But I feel like the people who are taking care of us sometimes get forgotten and it's important to take care of yourself So I think that's what I would say if you are a caregiver of someone who's going through significant Anything make sure that you are taking breaks and taking time for yourself There is nothing wrong with calling in reinforcements calling in a friend or family member and be like hey Can you babysit this person not babysit? But you know adults it or just hang out with them for a couple hours while I go to the gym or hang out at a coffee shop Or take a walk or whatever like there is no shame in taking time for yourself because though It may seem like everything is about this person right now because there's so much energy being focused on them and in recovery It's okay to have a life still and things are still about you as well I was hoping that someone would ask this question. What other youtubers do I watch? Okay? I am very devoted to Kayla Nicholson I will link her channel down below. You know, I don't live my life like she does like I'm not mostly vegan I don't work out 24-7, but she's just such a lovely human being I also listen to a ton of Gary Vaynerchuk or Gary V if you know who he is He talks a lot about you know going after what you love in life. He also curses a lot He's a very interesting person. He's an entrepreneur and I just I love him. He's great I got to see him speak live earlier this year, which was awesome And then there were like 40 others that I love I'll link some of the other channels I like down below. Ila Carter asks am I restricted to only flat footwear. Yes Now I was thinking that after amputation the answer would be no because I could only wear flat shoes before because my ankle was fused Which means that essentially like my leg we're gonna pretend this my leg was screwed into my foot And so like it didn't move so I couldn't wear heels anything like a little bit would really hurt because it didn't move It put pressure on the other joints in my foot cause a lot of pain So I thought I could maybe wear things like I heels for the first time ever not true There are certain legs that allow you to like adjust the height of your foot But the first question my prosthetist asked me is would you like to be able to be active or wear high heels? And the answer was very obvious to me obviously be active like that's my life I love going out and doing things and hiking biking going to jitsu like taking my dogs out Way more important to me than wearing high heels So currently yes, I am restricted to flat feet if I ever had an extra 20 grand lying around that had no other good purpose Which would never happen. I would buy myself an extra leg so I could wear high heels, but that's not gonna happen Miss Sadie here Just looked extremely lonely and like she needed to play some tennis ball. So We're outside playing tennis ball with her by the way, please take note of the chewed corners of my house That's where lovely Sophie my other shepherd when she was a puppy The only thing she ever ever did wrong ever and we had her since she was seven weeks old But she decided to eat the house. She just ate just ate the house Have I gained or lost any friends since my amputation lost? No, absolutely none I think that's a real gift Sadie's like pushing me over Though I have gained some actually I've gained some amputee friends because I got involved with the new community Which is really awesome and I got way more connected with with acquaintances We previously had like for instance We had friends at our jiu-jitsu gym who like we were friends with me knew them in passing But as I was having my surgery they asked if they could bring us food over and so they did and we got along Super well and ever since then we've hung out with them a lot Which has been really really cool and I don't think we would have necessarily done that if they hadn't you know come over and Spent time with us where we were just friends and passing before and that's happened with more than one person a beautiful scenic YouTube background Isn't it next question? Do I consider myself disabled? That is a really good question, Kristen That's a hard word for me honestly because technically yes, I am I am part of the disabled community Sadie But I think it's a word that I'm in the process of figuring out what it means to me And making peace with I think that's really the only answer I have the definition of the word means that there are certain things that you can't do that there are abilities that you don't have and That's simply accurate like I can't walk on two feet anymore because I don't have them So I'm still in the process of figuring out exactly what that means to me And if that's part of I guess identity would be the word. All right. This is an excellent question What do I think of inspiration for now if you don't know what that is? It's like when people put together compilation videos on Facebook or stuff like that of people who are missing legs or missing arms or in wheelchairs But they're still doing things and isn't that awesome and you know, I used to see things like that used to watch things like that and Probably had a positive reaction to it and now I really don't like the argument like and if it helps people that's awesome But at the same time I think we change our perception a little bit and understand that people are amazing for all different reasons and also the Argument that someone is doing something and they're inspirational So you should do everything to just doesn't work because that's not how the world works and that's not how people work Marshmallow asks have I ever gone to school and talked about my amputation? No But that is something I'd really like to do talking to schools And other group situations is something I'd really like to expand into as I mentioned before I've done public speaking for years. It's something I'd really like to do more professionally because I really enjoy it I like it. I'm part of a toastmasters group, which is like a public speaking group I'm a nerd like that and I really like it. Sister JJ asks when I had the cast on was I nervous to know what it looked like underneath Yes, I know that many of you weren't here for my earlier videos But I think that having a cast on because a lot of amputees don't have a cast on after surgery They just have like bandages. I think having a cast on was like a good transition for me Because I could see that my leg wasn't there But I didn't have to see that my leg wasn't there immediately It was like covered for two weeks, you know and I got to kind of ease into it and adjust to the idea a little bit more instead of Immediately being faced with this new reality if that makes sense and I was scared to see it I was really freaked out the day of surgery. I'll link the video up above I took a video of the day actually one up to get my cast off And I thought I would like sob or break down or something like that and I didn't I was like actually okay I was way more adjusted to it than I thought I would be. I think the weirdness has come actually More lately than anything like after the wound is healed when I'm back in normal life I'm like, oh, this is what it's gonna look like forever That's been way more of an adjustment than being scared of what it looked like underneath the cast I'm being invaded by creatures everywhere for everyone who's wondering. This is our cat cake. That is Louis and over here We have Sadie actually a lot of the questions were about our pets. So there you go Alright cakes. You're gonna need to move. You're gonna see a cat tail again in a second But I don't know if you can tell I'm feeling a little out of it a little like migrainy Oh God cakes and I answer some questions, but if I seem a little out of it, I am so there you have it Ali asks what I ever do a video about my tattoos absolutely. I actually have eight I think you guys have only ever seen two and they're all super meaningful to me because I'm lame like that And I well, I won't get anything permanent when you on my body unless it means a lot to me So yes, expect a video like that in the future. How do you say please? I think that's the username says what helps you pull yourself out of bed on bad days So I have a lot of those as I talked about before When things get really dark or when I'm having a really hard time the easiest thing in the world is just to stay Safe under covers or safe on the couch the general wisdom is to do the opposite of what your body is telling you when like depression hits So if you feel like the only thing you should do is stay in bed and not talk to anyone It's generally a good idea to get out of bed and like text a friend or try to go do something now I don't think that works a hundred percent of time. I think sometimes you need to take a break However when things are really dark I think back to other dark days I've had where I was convinced and I mean convinced that nothing would ever ever ever be Okay, ever again, and then it was because I held on because I chose to make it through another day If I can manage it I will take a shower because if I can like feel more human by cleaning myself That usually helps that usually is like a step in the right direction And if I can at least take that step I can usually go a little bit further than that It's rose not rosy asks. That's a great username by the way. What's the best thing that happened to me this week? We got dinner with a couple friends who we were just acquaintances with and Had an awesome conversation and realized that we should be much better friends with them and that was lovely It's always good to have great conversations with people and really connect so that was awesome pause for just a second I pulled up Instagram to look at the question some more. Look at this guy Someone drew that of me. That seriously looks like me I am just blown away that someone took the time to do that. So thank you I will put their name on Instagram in the description down below Please go check them out and adrovica asked how much did my foot weigh so it's gonna be different for everybody They didn't actually like technically weigh mine when they took it off But mine it was probably between five and ten pounds somewhere like that For above knee amputees is obviously a lot heavier because your thigh is pretty weighty But I'm not a giant person. I'm five five and it was below knee So it was about like five or ten pounds somewhere in there real quick. I had an idea yesterday I wanted to ask you guys about it I was thinking about doing a YouTube live and bringing Brian in because a lot of these questions are about him and me I would love for him to like actually talk with you guys So like this video if you think that that would be something you would enjoy And it would obviously be recorded if you couldn't you know be there for the actual live time But let me know if that's an idea that you would be on board for and I think this migraine is gonna win today And I can no longer have the window open because it is getting worse. So with that I'm gonna say I love you guys You're amazing. Thank you for all your questions, and I cannot wait to talk to you in the next video. Bye guys. Oh, that is a very wet gross tennis ball


Right Activist Ebon Lowe Adebu Rua has challenged the Department of State Services' DSS to file charges against the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN Governor Gabyn Emefele. Emefele faces a legation of terrorism financing, diversion of revenue, agricultural loans and fraudulent practices in foreign transactions. In a statement on Monday, Adebu Rua said that public officer cannot be above probe or the law if there is need in a case for him to answer. The lawyer recalled how the DSS sought a court order to arrest and investigate Emefele but was greatly embarrassed. Adebu Rua admitted that various crises surrounding the CBN Governor do not speak well for the economy. But however stressed that there should be no undue persecution or arrest of anyone without lawful cause or due justification. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
