happened. You would have lost mera. For example Yeah, mera would have had her head decapitate.  Yep Like the lowest turning up prevents possibly the entire justice league being executed and the end of the world Thank you. Lois. He had a strong effect.  He we the first time we see alfred I think he's testing out the uh voice mod modifier No, I'm and I quite like the idea that alfred is engineering a lot of the the tech that batman uses It's a very active role. The problem I have of course is what an insanely useful piece of technology to have been invented so close in proximity to what it was Wow, and what did joss do he had superman hit bruce instead? also, um It did it really remind me of the uh the scene in mando where they reveal that um Mandalorian's armor a dinge jaren's armor, whatever can um deflect lightsabers Wow It's really handy. It seems a little um Unbelievable kind of that superman's heat vision. Uh, it doesn't just break through batman's gauntlets Oh, well, you see how far it does, but it doesn't for both of them Like one of them just holds on infinitely longer than the other one.  Okay. It's like Why why is that impossible?   I guess you could say Actually one good line, which was this is alfred. I work for him That was I that gave me a tiny little giggle something Wait, when was that?  I work for him So it's just a little little funny bantery moment, you know could have used more of those Um, but you know something aquaman described alfred as badass. I was like, hey There you go. We like stuff No, yeah, there we go. We balance the scales. Yeah now back to the one shitting on it Um One of cosmonauts criticisms of joss's cut uh that I just Applies to both of them is how long they take to actually start saving people in the uh the tower portion of the film Remember they arrive and they see people being interrogated. They don't do anything Um in joss's well, that's the thing you can say in joss's cut that flash is too scared to save everybody As much as you can I don't this is the complicated thing about this discussion that I'm not sure where I stand on this A lot of people complain about that like significantly. They're like, that's ridiculous.  I hate that and I'm like um So that's who he is apparently and we have nothing to contradict it So what what like what's can we really complain that much about it?  He's gotten over his is fear So it's up to the next writer to try and you know apply limits and stuff um But like yeah, the only argument I I'm assuming people are gonna be using is well That's not what flash should be and I should be like all right I don't I don't want to Did you all love how he just runs around the staircase giving moral support as the humans slowly Trudge their way up the town. Yeah, what a useful use of your powers. Good job flash high five I like that part where he grabs all the debris that's falling down And he sees another one falling down and instead of just grabbing it he screams no Like he doesn't grab any of the people as well Yeah, just doing anything I mean as we see at the end of the movie when there's an explosion everything slows down you can just rewind time Why would you never? You know, oh gotta break the rule. It's like what's the point of having that rule? You're always gonna do it when you need it. So it's not really a rule at all God guys, uh, if you're max announced wait, hold on. No, I'm sorry. That's uh, no, that's uh, that is uh, that is a fake That is a troll account. That is a troll Yeah Very briefly I did yes The the clue is uh, HBO map is not a real I like the idea that there's a hb or map and it's just like a map to hb or You know what though? Thank you. Thank you hbo map for trolling the Snyderverse Snyder fans, I thank you just give give them hope please Also, I think he means rule like a law of physics Why no he does not what do you mean? No no no no no no because obviously he Did it fine. He didn't have to break any laws of physics I mean, that's though. It's a personal rule. He has for some reason. I'm not really sure why well Yeah, I was gonna say that's still bad though, right? If he was saying it in reference to the idea like I shouldn't really rewind time just because You shouldn't really rewind time. I should be like that's not anything very You have to do better than that Like damn, you know because I think we brought this up earlier. It was just like uh, did barry ever tell any of them about this? Do you think? Like I rewound time and saved all of your lives by the way. I just saying No, no biggie. We can get me later It'd be it'd be really weird if he didn't I feel I feel like that It's it's really hard when we first watched this movie to try and organize your thoughts on it Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, like four hours of just pure concentrated agony Do you said that as it said part six something darker? That's one of the things to oh The the the film's aspect ratio was incredibly annoying and it's it's very obvious the scenes where it was shot in four by three Which are not many of them right now the scenes where oh, yeah, look at that head space. Look at that head space It's almost like the film wasn't shot to look like this Yeah But you could see more of the area above the characters you love and isn't that amazing We can look at the sky because that's more interesting because remember when I when I was like You can see it in The shots like with dark side and decide and any basically any CGI shots and the nightmare sequence Everything's framed correctly.  Um, there's just empty space inside their heads. Um, yeah Like That's so good All right, there we go now. I'm better bring you three water empty space above their heads It's just really annoying And it's funny because the only reason this was done was because it's meant to be cool and edgy and like seven samurai It's the only reason he did this Well, I'm gonna give him a bit more credit than that. I think he just likes the shot That's like he decided that not at the beginning because you can find quotes of him when he was still attached to the project early on That he said he intended it to be 185 so 1.85 to 1 which is very very close to 16 by 9 It's like the little little tiny black bars on the top, right And then he decided later like ah, I kind of like, you know, the bigger square look So I'm just gonna do that Like it's not it's not pretentious. It's just it's it doesn't really add I'm gonna give him no no no no because there's nothing inherently pretentious about the shape of the screen No, no, no Hang on wait, wait, wait, you wouldn't argue that it's inherently pretentious You would argue it's it's pretentious in regard to society and culture which it is Yeah No, I don't think it's inherently pretentious to shoot your film in a box here Yeah, I don't think it's pretentious in the context of our culture to have a film In a four by three ratio. Are you sure about that? No, yeah, I don't think you were shot in a box Are you sure? No, I don't I don't think that's pretentious. I don't think that will release a Justices gray edition like So to clarify right it's not I wouldn't call it automatic Um, for example the one that everyone's going to bring up is lighthouse Lighthouse makes a really strong use of the square like it's the oh for sure So many of the shots are properly like framed Look at the film I imagine is much more of a consistent consumption with a square rather than a widescreen I was very impressed when I was watching it with so many of the shots where I was just like, oh Shit, they made that work really well with the the the limits they have sort of thing as well as adding to the claustrophobia of the whole like experience, however I see no fucking reason for Snyder cut to be a square at all Oh, I agree. Oh look all I'm saying is I don't think It inherently means as pretentious, you know implies That he thought it made this film more artsy or more intelligent than it actually is. It's just I think you might as well I I don't know because well when you watch this film the color correction is so Desaturated it just I get the vibe that this is just what he thinks looks cool Not that he thinks it makes it More intelligent or more high art than it would be otherwise. He just thinks it looks good This is the same guy who has all of the the like the deeper Biblical references as well as like other literature references then does like the Gods come from he is pretentious.  I just I don't see all right So to clarify you think he made the decision because he thought it looked cool Rather than he thought it would make his film look more like it made by a clever person or a artsy person Yeah Yeah, I'm more willing to err on the side of uh, he was trying to make well So this was the thing I meant to say when we start this conversation I don't believe necessarily it's either those beyond I think he's desperately trying to move his movie away from weedens as much as possible to prove That it is an entirely different film Which how many oh, I agree with that how many people you guys seen say that where they're like, oh my god These films are like entirely different. It's like Yeah They're really not actually like if we're gonna be Because this is the thing in some ways they actually really are but then in the most significant meaningful ways like oh Well, no way. No, they are kind of just the same film though like Yes, it's so I agree with that. I think I think a lot of the decisions where he wanted to make it visually distinct from Justice so even though Even though the theatrical cut is in the ass is very very close to the aspect ratio He intended all along he decided to change it because he was like, oh, I you know I kind of like the square and I want it to be different 4 by 3 black and white 4 hours long to me All choices to push it as far away from weeden as possible Yeah Let's not forget how this looks for ultra wide monitor users Jesus Christ at the half the screens of black bars Oh, there's another there's another mistake. So this is a very specific thing But so if you watch the film on hbo max on any screen that's taller than 16 by 9 Like I have a macbook laptop that's 16 by 10, right? So it's slightly taller Now if you watch it on that it doesn't actually go to the top of the screen. Hold on. Just I have an image There you go It doesn't actually fill the entire screen Because whoever whatever file is being streamed on the platform is actually 16 by 9 with black bars on the sides Instead of just native 4 by 3. So it doesn't even fill the entire screen lull Like that's what it looked like when I watched it on my Oh, that's Yeah, it's an amateur mistake. It's something that amateur filmmakers is something I made with my first Short film I instead of cropping the actual video. I put black bars in the timeline And it's a rookie move. I don't know who did this or why it's very strange Disney plus is the same issue where if they have widescreen content It doesn't actually fill up the ultra wide like it's meant to it's just like turns into a little rectangle Oh Glip said full by three I max filmed in 35 millimeter not 70 millimeter idiot.   Uh, I'm not 100 clear. I think it's scrolled up too far now.  He says capital O is being rongo Yeah, for what? Tell me how I'm wrong everything I'm sure he'll post it again, and then I can read it out to you about I max is 65 millimeters. Usually I did not talk about the film format. I'm just saying What are you talking about? Yeah, he was saying that it's really weird to put that black bar in the video file Yeah, and that's what it is because otherwise it would fill up the entire screen It would go to the top of the screen. So we're just posing chris stuck, but likes it. Okay Um Chris duckman is not an authority. I'm sorry to say Chris alone. He liked rise of skywalk of vaguely. I think I'm saying while my mistake is that the file that's streamed on hbo max is actually 16 by nine It's not four by three or else it would fill the entire screen That's the amateur mistake. The point is that it should fill the entire It should fill to the top of the screen on whatever size screen it's on Yeah, the bars that uh cap is talking about at the top and bottom not left and right Yes Um, it it's like yeah reduced a little bit. It's uh amusing But maybe maybe glib is responding to that. I can't quite tell he said the movie was I don't know. It's it's not a big point. So I know it's retarded all right Um So, uh, yeah, then um the The parts of the film that I think that uh, you'd have to change if anyone was to make any cut of it is kind of just being like Shit, man Nobody's got any character in it Like cyborg's the one that gets a decent amount of scenes in focus Which by the way a lot of people keep referencing that as why Weedon's is absolutely the worst. I'm just sitting here like man Cyborg is so much better off without all those So many payoffs and development of the aspects and actions he could do that make him so frustrated as a person to watch And but he's not as powerful in Weedon's cut I mean some people will listen to that and just be like are you serious right now? It's like so I sucked a Manhattan.  They're all terrible unfortunately And we hear over at ifa bonia Uh, don't tend to celebrate an idea if it's all flimpy in execution We're usually like oh, yeah, and I can see what you were trying to do And um, yeah, it's it's been done a million times before and I'm not saying that's a bad thing I'm saying go for it if you want to do the whole Look discovering a new new lease on life frankenstein Trying to get his heart back in order blah blah blah I um We went over it earlier as well But like the other aspect I think is a problem is that they never really give us any reason to think That he would have a harsh existence.  It's it's what it's like a writing tool.   You're right Remember how one woman can't make tea Yeah, she's only had a hundred years to practice That is kind of strange actually I suppose you could argue It's just the fact that the british guy's gonna know how to do it better. I guess Like she seems to have She lives in the didn't oh wait. No, she lives in france or whatever wait. No She lives in the uk sometimes too She was in london in the beginning Well And recently been learning about tea. All right Ah, right. I guess you tea Do there are tea on themaskira. I feel like, you know, they would have like um, what else what else they drinking? Yeah Yeah Mountain dew It's kind of funny that everybody's meant to be presented. It's really nice, but I wouldn't want to live there Like there's no air conditioning. There's no heat. There's no electricity. I can't watch tv.  I was gonna say a mom like mom just soldier going on to that beach with uh Just like, you know, he's standard sort of rifle and having cover Man, he's gonna take out a lot of them Exactly It's why it's funny that they're presented as though admittedly the atlantians proved even more incompetent like how how do you fail How how a steppenwolf better at moving through water than you guys that's like your thing and that's all you do Well, because steppenwolf need to breathe actually like well, how can he just exist under there without any He's holding his breath well, but he's but he roars, but he roars underwater Imagine steppenwolf like he can't jump out of the water until he sinks all the way to the bottom So he can propel himself up and so he's just slowly sinking and it's pretty deep And he's just waiting because he can breathe underwater or whatever. I guess and he's just like Come on He's like he beds his legs down. He's about to go. He's like every order at the same time. Okay, three Two oh, it's gonna surprise it. I swear to god three It's gonna be so funny So he's actually baiting mera into making the water bubbles just so he can breathe again so he can take another Yeah, she does it. He's like, oh no, you got me He like he just fucks everyone up in that scene and when he gets to her the person who actually affected him By the way, she knocked him down. So he's got more reasons to knock her out grabs it by the throat. He's like He says what does he say something like there's no use in fighting or something or the Can't escape. I think he says some some some generic villain line here Yeah, or your soul will be mine It's standard your soul is mine.  There's a whole book of them Someone you can rely on for these course pieces of dialogue is the the villain in ant-man. He's uh, I forget his name. Yeah Yellow jacket.  Okay. It's special. It had defenders Remember the big thing that destroyed dark side in his whole army was that the planet he attacked actually tried to stop him They were like, hey, don't as opposed to all the other planets. They just did well There was just uh, if you guys played Dyson Sphere program. They're mostly empty. Nobody on these planets So you land a step in wolf and you're like, oh, it's some other boxes and they're like, we're over here, man Nobody's here. I don't know. Yeah, it's not that interesting For a bit. All right unity it detonates the whole planet changes and then decide is like did you did you do it?   Oh my god. This is like this Docs I'd help please remember. He keeps his special cream inside those horns too. Oh no special red special cream That's what my hands they get so dry all the time Yeah, to be fair most planets are empty. I'm not joking like This is he could have conquered like all the other planets in the solar system and And the moons as well because we have moons that would be planets if they were not orbiting around another planet So he could those would be worlds. He could he I guess I'm curious like what is what exactly is the objective in just turning planets to dust Like why are they doing that? Very good question. Why would you not?  Yeah, we love Batman and Robin here Yeah, why do people keep saying that do you like anything? Do you not like anything or is that? Oh, people don't You're allowed to like everything. That's cool.  Yes Uh, uh-huh. Fantastic. Yes That is some good There's no need for us to like list all of our favorite things. It's like this is why we always fight it bizarre Because from their pov it's like you really do hate everything from our pov We're like we're in this because of how much we love storytelling and loads of movies. So we're like, wait, what? Uh, for instance, we love the Snyder curd Wait a minute getting pushed back on that. Oh, no You you you have made a powerful enemy today.  It fucks with your brain.  My my favorite is when they're like What do you mean? It doesn't make sense for uh, zod to like kill everybody on the planet He's a soldier without a wall.  What do you think they thought to kill?  Let's go Do war do war Let's do war fellas call arby boy number three on shortcut seven Tell them do war mr.  I would love superman to be like i'm a big fan of justice and then mr. Freeze goes cool Justice you served cold Dice age Oh what a legend we need him back We need to see we need a batman and robin sequel as a solo He could show up in batman's movie It's a freeze was behind it all if if joffin made a deal to like have Another flash sequence where he just fucks with the multiverse and he brings in arney mr. Freeze like that Oh, and he joins them. He's like no, I had my whole awkward robin. I'm a good man. I'm gonna join you guys So what's your power?  It's pretty fucked up actually Well in batman and robin they survive they have to be thawed out in 11 minutes I think is the uh, yes, is that based on anything in real life? Like can you be frozen for an amount of time and live? No, I was gonna say I feel like I feel like that's just a future robber thing Because the issue is like if ice crystals will form in your cells and those are gonna tear your that's gonna tear You apart on a um microscopic level.    Yeah, man.  You saved me and that soldier was probably like all in a day's work Buddy with one of his arms lays it off Hey, listen, they don't show they don't show his body that means that he's fine No, the the camera like his hands so that you just can't see the arm nub It's just to the side As we learned right those those three buildings that superman crashed that ship into were probably empty We didn't see anybody at him. So Oh, we needed that.  I would like the dceu to be a fever dream in canon. That would be nice You go to like Batman just wakes up What are we doing? What are we done? Our superman comes in is everything all right bruce. We got it. We got to take bbs the next level You know those awkward lines. They just go it's no population in this area Whatever Batman is looking at all like the flash and corpse of different soldiers While several of them are crying and screaming and he's like oh my god And then he looks at superman superman looks at him and just goes uh, there's no population in this area What those bodies were abandoned This this place is abandoned. There's no life. I can see that there's people here bad. He's like there's no one here There's no one here. It's all it's all an illusion and then he just like I don't know gets a stack of cards And does weird tricks with them. See this isn't reality Nothing that you're seeing is real I think oh my god the world's about to explode ring ring and government goes. It's okay. It's abandoned It's okay. It's barely habitable Somebody just typed out zaks not as justice league greater greater greater than end game. It's not that it's not that transparent I'm not sure when I put above the other yesterday.  It's kind of hard to pick the loser, you know Yeah, I mean I would much rather watch end game than watch sacks night as justice league I get a lot of I get a lot of subjective joy from end game even when I think even though when I think about it I get a massive headache about how it doesn't make sense. Snyder.  It was like, I don't think so I don't know I just wish he never did because again Watching end game like 10 years from now whatever you'd be like. Oh my god. Remember fortnight. Ew I mean it was you in the cinema. I remember being like Oh, why did you do that? Yeah And just like when hulk was saying dab. It's like, oh my god Stop it. Hey jay defends that dab actually Alpha witch That dab is not no, I don't That movie's not that funny. Jay will fight you aren't much springy versus jay the dawn of dabbing Don't dabbing There is a lot wrong with end game like make no mistake. Like I said, I really watched it yesterday Lot was wrong with it. Well, maybe maybe that will make people feel better that the ones who are listening to us like Oh god, like Marvel shows like no end game is awful. Okay Awful, um, but I would much rather watch end game because like end game does have characters in fun moments It's not really fair to compare them in that sense because to have characters is a big benefit to a story I think I think so. He doesn't have Do you like how Superman only has five lines in the Snyder cut? Or well, not literally filing but it feels like Like the amount of dialogue he had is so minimum.  Like he was marketed like yes, he was Yeah Is less in this than in Justice League and of course you could be like well I hate him in Justice League because he was too wholesome. I'd be like, all right Oh, I'm okay. I I like the part where they 80 yard in the line. Hey, is this guy giving you any problems? Boom go Superman. Yes Save the building And actually earning his reputation as a great hero. That's a really nice guy That's that's just we can't have that. Oh look the scene on screen right now Batman was hurt when he was punched by Superman What are the odds of that? Oh my goodness Yeah, this I think this is the the best addition from Joss as far as I'm concerned this scene Um, oh definitely does a whole bunch for Wonder Woman and Batman. In fact, it turns Wonder Woman from nothing to something and it turns Batman from Uh thin to thicker but not like amazing because Batman in Snyder Cut is I would like to make a team Because that's what Clark would have wanted and that's what we should do as superheroes and at the end he goes I did it Yeah, it's not really good for anything In this one He admits to the idea that he's willing to take it so far that he would be willing to die for Superman to come back Like that's how much he believes he's good for the world. It's like, oh damn. That's quite some progress since uh bvs And there's plenty to show in terms of events that would make him think that Um, I imagine if it was all written well from the start Then oh you that's what we all get very sad about. Um those clips that you uh, you threw in meme for the Default movies just Batman and Superman talking about each other with respect for the things that they do. It's like Man, would that be neat? That would be neat We're very cringe put it away No cringe stop That was my best friend and you just killed him.    Yeah, I kind of like the yodeling Well, this is yeah, that's insane man. It's a pattern.  That's again a problem thematically by the way What you just said about like why is everybody a part of this team? It's like wonder woman Do the right thing batman Do the right thing superman Do the right thing cyborg Um, do the right thing. I guess the flash you wanted to have friends An aquaman, I guess, uh, he was told to by willem de faul Which is amusing right because the Avengers see you see avengers was wise to have the team sort of fracture in the middle of the film And they come back together at the end. It's a really good way to just have that payoff Yeah, and and loki's villain role in that film was to Steal the resentment.   He's like i'm gonna go get my better suit And uh caps already finding a way to get to new york without like being sanctioned and isn't fury just like yep It worked. They're all going yep Avengers is Phil colson Avengers is a good movie and it's upsetting to me that people are just Disregarding that fact because they want a shit on joss weeden now I'll tell you what man It felt weird for a moment there that I was like citing like why events take place based on character actions that have histories like whoa Yeah, like you look at the scene where they go to the tower And when they're first doing something kind of as a group and you're like why though And it's like well, they kind of just like bruce found them was just kind of like let's just go It's like yeah, I guess It's not like they wanted that avengers money But they completely missed the fundamental point about why avengers was so successful And that is like you have individual fan bases for a meet to these universes and you allowed these Um characters to grow um in their own right and then you get to put them in a blender together And see what happens when these fully developed characters bounce off of each other No one in this film is developed before this film and they're not really developed in the film either So you don't get it either way Yeah, we we don't we don't have any conflict We don't have any meaningful conflict in this film because none of these characters are very different from one another Which is funny because they tried to inject conflict into justice league Between like aquaman and cyborg and stuff and and they tried but it's hard to When there's so little time Yeah To fix it and when the characters coming in are already so flat Whereas like iron man was suit was already pretty well developed by that point captain america was like a pretty clear Well, oh Movies are object.  You do You did Saber dot man I feel like I have a memory of me shitting on it and attacking it with someone on the stream defending it No, you love it moller. You love the attack of the clones. You think that that's a great well written movie Okay, like guys again like the like slash dislike is not the same as good slash bad We make this distinction all the time. What is so hard to understand about this? I think what's happening is what's happening on the boy's stream.  We don't think it's very well written Yeah, bat.   That's what we should all strive to be This is something as good as batwoman We've said before Both ryan wilder and cate cane are further characterized than captain marvel and ray Um, they're both just really awful people. That's the problem Uh, yeah, that that'll that'll do it, you know, just have them be terrible people Yeah, of course the problems But um, we never really got a blurb from uh from ufring We've had everybody deliver this sort of like overall Thoughts of the situation and then the quality of snider cut and then compared to weeden So if you want to do a little speech on her uh So what so just the the broad summary of this film. Yeah Okay, all right This film frustrates me so much everything about it. I hate There's so much that I find annoying about the film itself and also the context in which it was made um, but fundamentally What exactly is zack son is just asleep? It's honestly It's so clot. I don't like to say that there is such a thing.  This is a new vision This is a new take on the characters and you know what that's fine. That's totally fine That's okay. You can do a different vision for your batman and your superman. It's fine.   I never knew I never thought that we would be coming out Saying that like justice league is the best one And that this is actually worse at the beginning I just assumed that it was a foregone conclusion that this film would be better, but it's worse and you know Uh, maybe maybe the moral of uh, zaks night as justice league is you got to find the silver lining You got you got to find like the little You got to find the good in the bad and the good that I found in this is that I can't trust any of my Perspectives on films before I watch them because god damn you watch your movie You don't watch it for a couple years and then you come back And then you find out that it's awful and way worse than you ever could have imagined What a fun. I I hope that there are no more films in this universe. I want them to just move on I don't want dark side coming back. I don't want the nightmare sequence. I don't want this I want to just move on move on reset do it all over again, which they're not going to do But hey like I would still take if they just do whatever it looks like they're going to do now Where they just like move on and try and reset and forget it. That's what I want. I don't want any more of this I hate it personally I really don't like that we have A batman who kills people and as an asshole and a superman who isn't optimistic and hopeful Um Well, I say that but it's like you think about all the missed but oh, yeah I think I think that's um, what's the most disappointing thing about uh, this film we have This was the first chance that they had to do a live action justice film and um You blew it. You had it all and you blew it. That's how I feel about it. Oh, yeah, it's just you You can't do it again. Like you can't get the this again this opportunity. It's gone And you look at it and you think like man endgame is really bad But like isn't it cool that we at least got this You know that we got this this spectacle or this like moment of having all these things happen and we're never gonna get it now with uh DC we're never gonna have like all of these characters coming together to fight a big bad. It's done. Um, That's super disappointing. But uh, you know I I guess uh I don't and I don't know how much I care about the whole idea of like well fans like made this happen It's like, oh I wish it was a better film I wish it was a better film Don't we all Yeah, um It's it's really bad.  Yeah, absolutely.   I think as as we started I was like rags has seemed like none of them So it was like, which by the way for those who are like always rags, uh, we're likely going to do A meme fab next week will come out Um, because everyone's going to be doing the easter stuff and then the week after that We may very well have another snider cut stream But we're going to check out some people's reviews and rags will be back and he will be able to tell you What he thinks and I'm pretty sure rags Would be a lot more curt about how Snider cut is really bad even more so than fringy. I think so that's probably what you think Good lord Hey Female relatives of mine went to see Aquaman from a mowa only wow never seen a DC film I just didn't realize that was You know such a thing Like I get that it's a thing but that much of a thing Hey, Jason mamo was in it. Wouldn't that be nice to watch this film? Yeah, I didn't know that either Um, I wonder if he's getting a big old pack I I wonder how many people like man amber herds in this one. I really got to see it Well, they're filming uh Aquaman 2 now, right? This year. Yeah, there was a there was someone that tried to compare us covering the snider cut to Johnny Sorry amber herd covering A movie like with Johnny Depp in it. It's like I'm like so here's the thing You're like you are referencing amber herd in a negative light, but um, zack center is the one that just gave amber herd more work How's that? How does that make you feel? Me certainly put her in more of a film. I don't know if all of that was record. Oh, no, wait No, he because the the nightmare stuff was new so She didn't have to be in the nightmare sequence True and even if you desperately for the sake of continuity had to show it because she's there in the you know The actual you could have just had it. She wasn't in that particular scene. She was she was really far back She was picking up some stuff off the floor. Okay Don't need to see her Yeah, he popped her in I've not seen many people talk about that at all Despite the fact that it's kind of weird, isn't it right when Aquaman 2 comes out people are going to just start shitting on it again Because they'll probably boycott it I'd imagine a lot of people you're not going to boycott this because again you cultivated your personality around it So it'd be real awkward to You know, it'd be real awkward to abandon this one. Hey, look, all right. I don't know. It's just kind of amusing That's all that it's just sort of forgotten about That's When did we decide that Zach Snyder was this visionary filmmaker if the world makes made sense a few years ago? We were shitting on him and rightfully so Why are we demanding this?  I think as this drummed up more and more Sort of just just I don't know Surrounding controversy slash discussion more and more people were walking back into that room But one by one and they were met with a room filled with people saying it's amazing And so you kind of just sort of go, um, hmm You know, I guess I'm kind of feeling it. Yeah, I'm kind of feeling it honestly and uh You know, when you get told this is a guy who got extra years the 70 million extra monies Filmed new things to like strengthen it got to have his own vision back and then you watch it I think If you have your phone And you look at it when you get bored and then you look back when the story happens You might be convinced of yeah, you know what this is working out. This is I'm thinking this film is pretty good actually And then the reverse happens with jossus league whenever anyone mentions it.  And you're like, I don't know let's talk about all of the story beats and how the all of them are broken It's like, yeah, but I liked it.  So it's gonna be better, right? It's like, well, I thought that too, but then I saw it Well, it's what we said There's a narrative that like, oh, there's the artist and then there's the studio and the people financing it That are always against them that narrative is really strong for people And I would like for someone to or like for those people to come to the realization eventually that you know The artist can be wrong and their vision can be stupid Well, this reminds me very much of uh, I think I think bioware is the best example of this A lot of people like oh ea sucks. It's bioware and then the more you learn the more you're like Oh bioware has been making some really bad decisions as a company Because of course, it's not always the full like, you know, it's it's funny, right? Just put yourself in the position of the financier for i.e. you know a game like anthem where it's like Okay, you've had seven years and like a hundred million dollars. What do you have to show for it?  All right. You got to release it We got to like pull the trigger on this that's kind of the same here, right? You've you've made these films people are not responding well to them and so it's twofold Not only people not responding well to them, but they're also performing poorly at the box office Something's got to give if you want to keep making like these films and is and also to be charitable to them Are we going to seriously suggest that nobody who is like a studio exec or a producer has any opinion on film at all? Like they don't even realize that there's nothing in their head that says there's something wrong with this film Like actually I just can't put my finger on it one of the things yms had sort of in the beginning was one of the talks he really wanted to talk about was uh the concept of creative vision and he was like We know the zack filmed a green lantern scene and he was forced to remove it from the snider cut And so therefore the snider cut is not his vision Like definitionally And so he's like so when is it oak with the line? How does that work? And then of course Why don't we apply that for joss right because creative vision seems to only apply when you come from scratch Rather than taking someone else's thing and making it your own Apparently you're not allowed to do that and have a creative vision And then why can't three people making something have a creative vision together and then one person Uh also have that and you might be like well, they can it's like okay. What about five? What about 10 then it's like what if 15 board members decided?  What do we actually want? We want good writing. That's what we want when you find out the movie you think is really well written Had like 17 writers on it. Does that mean it's bad now? It's it's more just be surprising. Yeah And that's the thing I completely agree And I if someone was like do you want to watch a sequel? Let's say spider-man uh no way home. Is this what it's called, right? Uh, yeah, if you said either it can be written by two people or 17 people I'd be like I'd two please But uh, you know if it turned out in those two universes the 17 writers one was actually really good Because you had like three mains and then four people working on like all the dialogue Every day with the main beats and the rest of them just doing touch-ups and focusing on will building or something It's like, oh, wow. I don't know. Maybe they're a really good team Yeah So, uh, that's the way whoever vetoed the green lantern scene with john stewart as snider's cut. Thank you Gg well played Yeah, uh, and that's not to say though that it wasn't neat that he got his chance to make this movie and like a Creative freedom says but at the same time. I just don't see why this wouldn't apply to everything Why didn't we say this about ryan johnson's the last Jedi it was his vision That's right. What's his vision? You just didn't like it and people hate what they don't understand Oh, no It's really it's Hey, yeah, it's it's fun when people say that to you is that you don't understand that it's really fun Isn't that a great way to have conversations about films being told that you didn't get it? Oh my god So they've just defeated steppenwolf in jossus league for the second time And uh in sniders, we've just started the nightmare sequence and i'm curious which one reaches the credits first Not that this is a fair thing. I don't even know where I started them both, but i'm just amused by We're still doing establishing shots for the nightmare sequence Come on little buddy.  All right, you should I just notice Hold on so in jossus league does um does the ship that batman was flying into the dome thing come back in jossus league at like once they save the day Does it show up again?  Yeah, we've we've been working on two of these things Yeah, because he crashes the ship in both cuts But does it does it come back in jossus? No, no it doesn't Oh, that's sad Is that the same ship or is that a different ship? It's the same ship The big like bat carrier thing right? Yeah, because that that well you're right that was destroyed as far as I knew It was so it stays destroyed in in jossus league, but it inexplicably comes back in the sider cut Well, I just remember you guys have to understand. All right, there's a lot wrong with this from no I'd like to imagine joss weeden doing all the reshoots especially for that ending in just screaming off camera Smile smile.   It's an awful show. It's really fun to talk about how awful it is and um Yeah, more videos to come. Maybe uh, maybe a snyder cut video. Who knows? We'll find out You and I will find out at the same time. Anyway, uh, yeah, you can check out the channel. There's some good stuff there That's all I got. Thanks for having me Absolutely, and um, I was gonna do links for everything everyone's gonna be talking about in descriptions already all there click away Copy paste. It's all wonderful. Bring you. What are you up to? What have you done recently? What did you release recently? So the crash video is finally done. It's been out for about a week. The response has been very heartwarming. Thank you all for the kind words and After a little bit of time thinking about what the next video will be you might have remembered a few minutes ago I mentioned that I've rewatched uh Avengers Endgame um Yeah, that movie is not good. Um So, uh, it's very bad. I think I think it might be worthwhile. So I have a little wee chat about uh Avengers Endgame So, uh, yeah, uh, you you'll see that in like four months. Um, but in the meantime I'm working on the free comic the first page is up I think it's up on the patreon and uh, but but yeah It'll be like probably a month away and then we'll start getting released weekly once I've got more pages done Uh, and then streams, but otherwise. Yeah, that's that's what I've been working on Uh Metal what are you doing? That's me. I'm here doing efap. Uh, no, uh, I started by work makeup on the journal week two video Uh, I finally finished merging all my notes Uh, I think it's like 17 pages of notes. Uh, there's no script yet. So it's probably gonna get longer Uh, it's gonna be a chunky boy because that movie is really bad Uh, so yeah, that that's gonna come out someday Uh, I mostly have only time to work on it on the weekend. So It's not as fast as I want it to be but I'm doing my best Uh, other than that, I'm just I'm just basically streaming after work On the totally twitches. What are you playing lately? What's the cool new game? Uh, I do cool new game Dark Souls remaster Hmm classic one. No, I just Fucked around.  Let's see the most of the fellas here is just hanging out on stream as well Just talking about things and bibs and bobs All that good stuff, uh, I like bibs and bobs. Yeah, um, I'm I'm I'm I'm actually I'm a big fan of bibs and bobs. Yeah. Yeah, we don't hate everything. We like bibs and bobs. Yeah, bibs and bobs are pretty Yeah, they'll probably start a stream of right when we finish up here. So If you want to hang out, I'm gonna Gonna stream There's uh, there is a link to that in the description go and grab it. Um, uh Mr. Southpaw, what are you doing? Well, still working on my script for last was to it's uh, over 100 pages long And I'm trying to do the best I can to Uh address every issue at least every major issue in that game Uh in depth, but also being relatively Concise to the point um, and of course I'm I'm here in Partaking in the dc eu arc on on eFavids. So incredibly fun Um, and on that note, I I just want to say, you know, we we talked about this And I want to make this clear and you know, we're we're really not affiliated with zack standards justice league as far as I'm concerned And in light of recent events, we we really, you know, if eFap teaches us anything It's about coming together to criticize shit writing and that there's no room for bad takes that is all so true Um and the meme repository. What are you up to? Okay, well, um I'm obviously still editing the me about movies for the dce eu the next one on the chopping block is Uh suicide squad just so I can get that all out of the way So that's not hanging over my head for the rest of time and then immediately going on to snide a cut after that I've also obviously got my channel going on. Um, Hopefully I've got all the audio recorded for a Mandalorian video. Um, so I'm hoping I can get that out once I have a little bit more uh time to jump between the eFap movies and the My own content just trying to figure out that balance and of course eventually working on the rise of skywalker video And eventually, uh, so I'm you know, this is this is still early days But I'm also trying to get a feature film off the ground. Um, and I'm getting concept art commissioned for that So I'm hoping at some point in the future I can talk about that With it with a little bit more detail once everything sorted out But yeah, I'm just keep an eye out for that as well That's pretty sweet. What have you got as a video ideas for the future?  Have you got anything like that? We are like people are wrong about thing Uh, well, uh, the Mandalorian one is about how people are wrong about stormtroopers. So that's kind of so that's kind of what Um, so that's what that's about and I've got a I've got a video I've got actually um, like a like a draft of a script written that's like how you would make a really good superman game as well So I also want to eventually Uh, get that out and how you could you you could not only play as superman But just clock can't as well and kind of have like a Reporter kind of mode in there to kind of add a bit of variety to gameplay So I'm I'm excited to uh, I'm excited to talk more about dc because I think well I think there's a lot of misconceptions about dc that I would like to Dispel with my videos. Um, so that's something I also want to push forward in the future Yeah, yeah good stuff. Um Links for all of this in the description as for myself the boys Kicking on with it as per usual. Oh and something of course is a super chat. So I was unable to get to them I will save them and uh rags myself will Be doing catch-ups as per usual And uh, you know in whatever catch-up that is you'll be able to get more insight on what rags thought However, uh part of the reason why Uh, there's a short efap as well as being relatively exhausted And um, actually no progress on the boys since last we spoke Freshest efap audience Is because other things have to be worked on sometimes, you know Like gadelb as someone's mentioned in the chat there gadelb On its way a legendary episode possibly filled with references as new as recent efaps. Who knows damn The moopa cut of gadelb But that's actually not what I've been working on. You gotta you got something coming soon. Okay, you disgusting creatures and uh, I suppose You know, there's no reason not to mention maybe the The title of said thing you see when you only sleep for about six hours each night for the past like 10 days because you you're desperately trying to put something together that you think People might quite enjoy and you are supposed to get it out Like yesterday and then today and then you're like, no gonna take a few more days. Unfortunately Um, you still have a little bit of hype for it and it's still pretty clear what it may have been already, but um No point dancing around it too much Basically something that is going to be pretty interesting probably something of a video that might change some minds might not who knows called Zach Snyder's Justice League An unbridled rampage Oh my god You


Hey everybody, Dr. O. In this video I want to talk about just kind of the basics of flagella structure. I won't go too into the weeds here and then also talk about why bacteria would use flagella and show you a couple of things too. So this is just starting with a really cool image. This would be a flagella stained Proteus vulgaris organism. So as you can see there are lots of flagella on this organism. It actually allows it to move in special ways that even other bacteria with flagella can't, but just wanted to show it to you because it's kind of a cool one. Okay, so here we see the two different types of flagella and I just want you to note, again I'm not going to talk about stator and rotors and secretion proteins, but I want you to see their difference. I'm going to show you a more close up, but the one thing that all flagella have in common are the three things they all have in common. So they all have the filament, which is the structure you would think of as the flagella and they all have the hook, which is what attaches it to the basal body, which is where the rotation actually occurs. So that's the key is that the bacterial flagella uses a rotary motion and what's really cool about it is it's kind of, there's some unknowns here, but the function or what allows the rotation to occur is a flow of hydrogen ions or protons through the flagella very similar to the way that the flow of protons or hydrogen ions through your ATP synthase enzyme in the electron transport system produces ATP. So the flow of protons causing a rotation is not something that only flagella can do is use in other places. So I just find that kind of cool. But here, let me just go a little bit closer here and you'll see the gram positive one is relatively straightforward because if you remember, gram positive bacteria just have that thick cell wall going to the gram negative. You'll see there's the paraplasmic space, then you have the outer membrane. So the gram negative of flagella is going to have a few more pieces, but that's only because it has to travel through that outer membrane as well. So, but again, don't get bogged down here with that at all. So here's how they move. It's actually be called the run and the tumble and you see what determines if an organism is running or tumbling is which direction. All these flagella are going to contract together. But first let's talk about why, right? Why do bacteria have flagella? Well, it's for motility. Motility is the ability of an organism to move. So why would an organism move? Similar to the reasons we get off the couch, I guess. We move towards things we need and we move away from things that we want to avoid. So when you move towards something, it would be an attractant. So like they move towards food, chemotaxis would be the term you'd see most often. They move towards chemicals that they want. Could be like a source of sugar like galactose or oxygen, et cetera. There's also phototaxis. So some are going to move towards or away from light, but chemotaxis would be the most important. So they also might be repelled by something. So like a waste product or something they want to avoid would be a repellent. So just like us, bacteria are going to move towards things they want or away from things they don't want to be by. But they use this run and tumble system to do so. So running would be when a microbe, when a bacteria is moving one direction for a relatively long period of time, it would be called a run. And that's going to be from the counterclockwise turning of all the flagella. But then every so often they're going to tumble. They're going to stop, and this allows them to quickly stop and change directions by changing the direction their flagella are rotating. And they can do this in about a quarter of a turn. It's actually quite impressive. So let me show you this picture here. So in this case you see on the left-hand side, you see an organism running towards something that it's chemically attracted to. So that would be that chemotaxis. But the tumble would be when they rapidly stop and rapidly change directions by changing the direction the flagella are moving from counterclockwise to clockwise. So all right, so that's the basic structure of flagella, why they have flagella and why they use them. And then the run and tumble, which is how bacteria use flagella to move. Okay, I hope that helps, have a wonderful day, be blessed.


Hello everybody. Hello. Very good to see you. Very good to be back home and thanks for waiting for us. We had a small delay. We should have been here an hour earlier. I'm sorry that I'm keeping you from home late tonight. But I really wanted to have this opportunity to meet with you after what has been I believe an important trip to Tehran with an outcome which I believe in terms of non-proliferation, in terms of peace and security, in terms of the work of the agency worldwide is very very important. You may have seen that earlier today at the same time in Tehran and in Vienna we issued a joint statement which was agreed by myself and the vice president of the Islamic Republic of Young, Dr. Ali Salehi. This is a statement. I would say that in its six paragraphs encapsulates what has been the result of very serious discussions in Tehran. You will see there that there are references to the way in which we intend to work and to continue working. Then it says if you trust and confidence amongst us, you will also see there something which is very important. Because when I left Vienna, I said that I was going basically for two motives. One was to establish the direct channel of communication and dialogue with the Iranian authorities. The second was of course to get access for our inspectors to two sites that we were, we had been requesting to Iran and unsuccessfully I would say for a number of months. So the statement recognizes that we have agreed on that. The inspectors will have access to these sites. We have agreed on dates for this. We have agreed on the basic modalities for this. This is extremely important. We have also agreed that or recognized that these activities that we are going to have there are related to nuclear material or possible related nuclear activities. We have also agreed and I'm sure that you might be interested in that in that in the present moment, in this present context, these are the places we need to go, the places we want to see. And in the present context, there are no other places that we need to visit. So as you can see, this statement contains a lot of flesh and reflect what I believe is a very important understanding, a very important agreement that allows us to continue our inspection work as it should be. So with that introductory note, I am, of course, very happy to take whatever questions that you may have. Yes. Your statement says you have agreed on dates, but when you plan to inspect these sites, what are those dates or at least what kind of timeframe, when do you expect to go to these sites? Yes, well, the exact dates is something that we do not normally reveal because this is part of the confidential safeguards information we have, but I can tell you that they have been agreed and it is very, very soon. So you said the result of the meeting was important in terms of peace and security. Sorry, you said that the meeting was in peace and security. Can you expand on that? Why was the meeting important? Why were the outcomes important for peace and security? I think it is very important because the work of our agency was being interrupted. Our essential work for nonproliferation had found an obstacle and we were having serious difficulties in overcoming this obstacle for many, many months and this was not only, I would say, of concern in the specific case of Iran, but also as I think I said on other occasions, also in terms of the nonproliferation regime, because it was the first time that a request for an access to our inspectors was not been heated. So this is why we believe that this was something, as I said, to the Board of Governors of the agency, something of serious concern. This is Takeshap Kildon's congratulations. Thank you very much. It's very kind. Could you give a small word, what made it possible for you to pass away to Iran to grant the access? I think there's, frankly speaking, I don't think there is a magic trick. This was the result of target systematic dialogue, conversation, clarification of the scope of our work, the way in which we do it. And as you may suspect, we were preparing this for a number of days here already. I sent my Chief Inspector to Tehran a few weeks ago, so this did not come by some wonder or some magic. But it became clear at some point, for I would say, without wishing to speak for them, for the Iranian side and for us as well that there was a need for a dialogue at the highest possible level. And of course, as you know, this happened with me meeting with President Rouhani and Foreign Minister Zareef as well as my nuclear counterpart, Dr. Salehi and the others. Any other questions? Yes. Yes, well, thank you. Hello, how are you? Thank you. Welcome back to Vienna. Thank you very much. So I would be interested, you said at the present moment the agency is fine with getting the access to those two locations. So what if new leads open up? Could you imagine a situation where in the future you would need further access to other sites? Well, I would not like to speculate, but I could imagine it as you put it. And of course, if we have information that warrants us for asking questions and if necessary access, we will do it. Any other questions? One more question maybe. Please, please. What does this outcome mean in terms of the general tensions, geopolitical tensions surrounding Iran? Because, you know, this issue is only one puzzle piece of bigger tensions. Well, this issue of course came up in our conversations, but I would say something. The agency while being indispensable and very influential factor in all of this is not an active player in all of those things you are describing. What we are trying to do is to do our job well. If that helps, all the best. Thank you very much. Are you confident that the United States provided access completely in the way it should be? Of course I am. I am absolutely convinced that this is going to be done in the right way. No limitations. Sorry? No limitations? No limitations whatsoever. No. Of course, in line with the accepted practices, you know that we have procedures in place to ensure confidentiality. Confidentiality of information, the interests of the inspected countries. We do not roam around freely. We have a comprehensive safety and safety agreement. We have the AP. We have the facility agreement. We have all sorts of procedures in place. But within that normative framework, we are going to do everything that is needed to have an idea of what's going on. One question. Please. Do you have any implications from the Board of Governors? Do you feel that the states will be satisfied with? Well, I couldn't speak for them. Right. Of course, and I report to them. But my impression is that this will be welcome. As you remember, this issue was considered by the Board of Governors. And the Board of Governors echoed my concern. Since we have had a positive outcome and we can continue our work, it is my sincere hope that this will be, of course, received well. Any further questions? Thank you very much for coming. Let me thank you very much again. I'm sorry to have kept you so late. And I hope to see you at not so unholy hours next time. Thank you very much. Thank you.


To the outside world, becoming a doctor means that you're a hard worker, incredibly smart, and the cream of the crop in terms of occupation. But if you're on that journey, you know that what goes unnoticed is the years of training and hours that inevitably lead to sleepless nights, anxiety, stress, burnout, and doubt. At every phase, you're either compared to the average on a standardized test or to the performance of your also brilliant peers. And as I've seen time and time again, it's very easy to be discouraged on your journey and start to believe that you don't have what it takes. But I'm here to tell you that all of that is not true. Here's how you crushed it on your medical journey while still enjoying the process. When I started medical school, I had one goal, to enjoy the process while becoming a freaking amazing doctor. And then I started medical school and all of the horror stories I heard about had started. This includes the 10 hours of studying, not getting the grades that I wanted, wishing I had more time for myself, and truly wondering if one, if I chose the right path, and two, if I was good enough to stick through with it. But thankfully I did exactly what I had done up to medical school, which is to look at exactly what all the top students were doing. I didn't want to be that stereotypical student who's doing well, but also stressed out of their mind. But I also didn't want to be that student that was very relaxed without getting the performance and results they wanted. So I started to look around and ask myself what the top students were doing and using so I could imitate them through my own process. Here's what I found. Number one, always focus on progress versus the rehaul. It's common on the medical journey and any kind of journey to try something and if it works out great, if it doesn't, to completely abandon it. So for example, maybe you start with a new study strategy and don't quite get the grades you want, so you completely abandon it and instead to choose a different strategy or resource altogether. But as I've learned, this continually makes you unsure of yourself and your abilities. Instead, I found it more valuable to start with something I thought would work, evaluate the performances after doing it for a little bit, and then tinker. For example, when I started medical school, I was studying primarily with flashcards and outlines. But this was taking me anywhere from 10 to 12 hours a day. And when I started to reevaluate, I asked one important question that really changed the game, which is, what would happen if I took five hours away? What would I do differently? In this conversation, I started to have with myself said, well, you're obviously going to do flashcards. Outlines are boring anyways. And sorry if that offended you. Maybe your outlines are worth a novel, mine weren't. So I made a tinker, I made a pivot, and I started to transition nearly 80% of my time doing just flashcards. And I found that that did work for a little bit. I went from 10 to 12 hours to studying eight hours a day, and it felt like progress. But eight hours a day still felt far fetched from the initial goal of enjoying the process while still doing well. In the short term, while I was spending last time doing flashcards, it took me two to three hours making the damn cards themselves. And so I found myself, just like many of you, getting tired before I even getting started. So then I made my next pivot or my next tinker, and I created the screenshot method I've now taught throughout various YouTube videos that you guys can check out below. And essentially what I was doing is upgrading and not reinventing my study system. The same way that all of us upgrade our phones and our laptops to a version that's a little bit better than as predecessor, but not all that different, is the same way you should evaluate everything on your journey, including your studying. And so I used the same approach every part of the medical journey. So for example, when it came to patients and patient interactions, I asked myself, well, what worked? What didn't? What should I do more of? What ideas and transitions can I make? And also, what kind of things should I do more of to make sure I get the same results as the past? And I kept on improving and improving this process throughout the journey. So if you're overwhelmed at the moment on your journey, simply ask yourself, what's the one thing that's causing you the biggest stressor in your life? And ask yourself, how can you simply simplify and refine and improve the process day in and day out? For many of you, that one stressor is going to be figuring out your studying. So if you're interested, check out the programs down below or free videos and resources that I put out weekly on the channel as well as the blog. Number two, create mandatory time for yourself. I'll get to it one day to really be the model for every student and medical student for sure. I'll get to workouts one day. I'll get better one day. I'll make time to call my family one day. I'll sleep in one day. I want to learn about finance, self-improvement, etc. One day. Well, the news flash is that day never comes. And if you don't believe me, take your past experiences to prove that you're lying to yourself.   In college, you got even busier with your pre-med classes and used any extra bit of time you had for your extracurriculars and maybe some time for yourself. In med school, that time got completely obliterated. As you guys can see in this chart, each year you get busier and busier. But the time to develop good habits like finding time for yourself, that needs to start now. Here's exactly how you do it. For your week, first find all of the time that's already been obligated for you without necessarily you having much input. These includes time for class, labs, lectures, meetings, appointments, dinners, put those on your calendar. Now, next thing you should do is to find one hour a day, minimum two hours is the goal to schedule for yourself. And this is time that you have put aside and obligated for yourself for things like fitness, family, and more. Now, two hours a day is the ultimate goal, so if you find this to be too much in a simple way, it's to start with an hour increased by 30 minutes each week. And following this tip for a month, you'll find that your day will start and end with things that matter to you, not the future doctor you, just you. And number three, remember that learning is a lifelong process. Being tested as often as we are on our Michael journey, it feels like we need to know everything now. Newsflash, you don't. First of all, I've learned that most things I've learned is utter useless. I don't care what the fourth step of the Krebs cycle is because it doesn't matter to me today. By the way, it's obviously when alpha ketocutorate becomes succinyl-coate, death. But I do care about how to manage a patient who comes to the hospital with a heart attack. And even then, when it feels like I need to know every right step to avoid screwing up, the answer is I simply don't. I need to, one, know the initial steps, and two, know where to look if I don't know the answer. And after being a doctor for almost two years at this point, I've realized that I still almost always forget at least one thing. And so every time I go through the process of looking up the basic guidelines to make sure I've given all the right meds and did the appropriate workout for my patient. And each time I do this, I tend to remember more and more. And this process keeps me humbled and also reminds me that medicine is learned through practice. And in the same fashion when you're studying, while it may seem the initial goal is to learn everything, the actual goal is to get into your testing phase as quickly as possible so then you can say, I actually know this and I don't know this, let's review this even more. The more opportunities you give yourself to do the latter, the more prepared you'll be going into exam and also your future as a physician. And so take some of that burden off your shoulders and understand that you'll be learning and relearning each and every day of your future career.  So stop grading yourself now. And don't forget to remember that while being a doctor is surrounded around this idea of service and sacrifice, don't forget to learn to serve yourself by not sacrificing.

When I got wind of this in the beginning of March, I took one night and I decided that I thought we should put our whole studio online. I own a yoga studio. It's called the Hone Yoga. It's in Miami Design District. Our mission is to take the classic lineage of yoga and layering it with philosophy and infusing that with Dharma talks. So we have a high powered, really sweating kind of yoga along with a spiritual message. I knew Hone was going to have to close. I knew that, that was going to happen. So I had to save a Hone. I couldn't save my kids' school, but I could save a Hone in the best way possible. Thank God we're profitable. I basically ran our numbers a bazillion times. Most of my employees are independent contractors. So it affected them greatly. That's been hard for me to see my teachers not having work. Financially, it's hit us really hard. We're going to make it by the skin of my teeth. We took basically our whole yoga studio and put it online. We just booked two full days of filming back to back. We got 15 hours of content and that was loaded up within three days. After the first sort of push, we had some other teachers come in and do more of a push. So now we have about 25 hours of content. That's how we've moved our community from the brick and mortar to the online platform. We've gotten really good response from it. We have over 400 subscribers and that's within like three weeks. You know, I'm an extrovert and I see 100 people a day. And so that 100 people has become three people, which is my family. I think subconsciously I was fueled because I knew I wouldn't see 700 people a week. I think that anxiety, far outweighed any of the challenges. It was just part of the path that maybe was a bit like this and we just plowed through it. My kids and my husband, we've gotten so much closer through this. We have dinner every single night together. I've learned how to skateboard with my kids. I become a hairdresser. All of these small gifts have been so gorgeous for me. And that part gives me hope. A takeaway to entrepreneurs is to believe in yourself, believe in your products and stay strong.


appears to be it. It's now time for member statements. The member for Toronto St. Paul's. Thank You Mr. Speaker. Last week I held my first tenants and housing town hall in Toronto St. Paul's. More than 60% of my community are tenants and in my riding the housing crisis is the number one issue I hear about. Residents told me they're scared that an above-the-guideline increase will push them out of their homes. Tenants also live with the anxiety that they could be renovated at any time. They don't understand why their buildings are not accessible and why the government will not improve the AODA and building code requirements. Tenants deserve better. At my town hall a young man spoke about his experience of reintegration after being incarcerated. He said that as the province closes halfway houses young people are released from jails without any social supports which increases the chance of them reoffending. Young people deserve a fair chance to turn their lives around and having secure housing is imperative to this. As a lifelong renter and a person who has experienced precarious housing myself I stand with the tenants and saying that we desperately need more real affordable housing. Ensuring safe and affordable housing is a first step in addressing inequity in society. Affordable housing is linked to many other factors that impact the lives of Ontarians. Housing is a public health issue and economic security issue and access to transit social services and education issue and a lack of affordable housing hits already marginalized populations even harder. The government must remember housing is not a frill housing is a basic right. Thank you. Member statements the member for Northumberland Peter Broce. It's my pleasure to rise today to inform the house that April is be a donor month in Ontario. This is a month in which all Ontarians are encouraged to show their support for organ and tissue donation by registering to be a donor. Today I'm asking all my colleagues in this house to join me in taking a lead and inspiring every Ontarian to save a life to be a donor. It's important to know Mr. Speaker that a single organ donation can save the lives of up to eight people and significantly enhance the lives of up to 75 others through the gift of tissue. The Trillium Gift of Life Network is a patient focused agency of the government of Ontario that is responsible for planning promoting and supporting organ and tissue donation across Ontario. They also work tirelessly to improve the system so that more lives can be saved. We're joined today by members from Trillium Gift of Life Network here in the gallery. Currently there are over 1600 Ontarians waiting for life-saving organ transplant. 39 of whom Mr. Speaker live in my riding of Northumberland Peter Broce South. Mr. Speaker sadly every day every three days someone dies a very preventable death waiting for a life-saving transplant. In my riding of Northumberland Peter Broce South I'm proud that over 40% of residents have already registered to be a donor. Today I'm issuing the mayor's challenge asking each mayor in my riding to promote be a donor and ask that every one of them encourage everyone in their community to register. How you can register go online and visit be a donor dot ca create your own campaign minds forward slash campaign forward slash MPP David Piccini. I'm also challenging all of my colleagues in this place to go online create your own profile and challenge the mayors in your communities to do the same thing. In closing Mr. Speaker I would like to encourage every resident of Ontario to spend two minutes to register online in your and consent to donate today. I would also ask every resident to spread the word that donating can save a life. Thank you. Member Stevens the member for Windsor West. Thank you speaker I rise today alongside my MP colleagues from Windsor to come see an Essex to show solidarity with the 1,500 workers at the FCA Windsor Assembly plant who learned that they will be losing their jobs in September and the 9,000 additional workers at feeder plants and related businesses across the region. This news has devastated our community. Everyone in Windsor Essex knows someone that works at Windsor Assembly. This weekend I spoke with workers and they all asked me the same thing. What can the provincial government do to support them? There are definitely steps that the Ford government government can take to save jobs. They could create an auto strategy which we have called for consistently. They could work with FCA Unifor and the workers to secure a new product for WAP to build on their full flex line and they could reinstate the EV incentive program that they hastily cancelled which encouraged consumers to choose green vehicle options like the Pacifica hybrid boosting those sales. Thanks to the incredible advocacy of Windsor West Member of Parliament Brian Massey the federal government has now included the Pacifica hybrid on a list of green vehicles eligible for rebates. The Ford government needs to step up and do the same provincially. We have a lot of options and we can't afford to do nothing. The Ford government needs to take real action not just offer lip service during this time of uncertainty for Windsor and Essex. Thank you very much Member Statements, Member for Brampton South. To celebrate the start of sick heritage month in April and April is a very special time for six across this country because April, specifically April 13th is the day that we celebrate Masaki which is the founding of the Kalsa and also the day that we were initiated with the five articles of faith. Over 500,006 live across Canada and contribute to every aspect of Canadian society and very much a proud part of Canadian heritage and one of those individuals and parts of history that I want to highlight today is Private Buckham Singh. Private Buckham Singh was the first sick to fight for Canada in World War I who died fighting for this country and it was great to see his sacrifice being recognized by the Peel School Board this past week by naming a school after him. So I want to commend my colleague the Wards Nine and Ten School Trustee for initiating that and having this important piece of Canadian history realized within our schools and I also want to let everyone know that six will be celebrating sick heritage month and with Kalsa Day parades across this province in Toronto on April 28th and in Malton on May 5th so I ask that the entire House join the community and celebrate. Thank you very much. Thank you Member Statements, the Member for Windsor to come see. Good afternoon Speaker. You've heard the devastating news that hit my community hard late last week. Many van sales have slumped. The Fia Chrysler Corporation wants to correct the market and lower the inventory. They see the easiest way of doing that is to eliminate the third shift at the Windsor Assembly Plan. 1,500 direct jobs are in jeopardy and could be could be gone come September if sales don't improve. The company had other options that could lower the price in the vehicles or offer 0% interest on new car sales and maybe they will in the days ahead. That's their choice. The Premier told the Windsor workers he's standing with them and will fight tooth and nail to protect their jobs. I take the Premier at his word speaker. So today I'm asking the Premier to do what he said he'd do to show he's actually fighting for these jobs and standing up for Ontario's automotive manufacturing industry. In order to boost sales and stimulate the demand for Windsor built vehicles, will the Premier place an order today for 1,500 or more new Windsor built many events? Speaker, you were here. It wasn't that many years ago during another period of slumping automotive sales. A previous government in Ontario did exactly that. Various ministries, health units and conservation authorities and so on use many events. There's no reason why these vehicles shouldn't be built in Ontario. Our government should be buying the cars we build here in Ontario. If we're open for business, we should be doing business with our own automotive manufacturers. In other words, speaker to the Premier, as we said in Windsor years ago, buy the cars your neighbors helped to build. Thank you. I recognize the member for Thunder Bay Superior North. Wanted to seek a unanimous consent to make a statement today on behalf of the member for Dawn Valley East. Thunder Bay Superior North is seeking the unanimous consent of the House to deliver a statement on behalf of the member for Dawn Valley East. Agreed? Agreed. Thunder Bay Superior North. My speaker, thank you, my colleagues. Of all the decisions that have been made by this government, the one that continues to strike me as the most cruel is the decision to end the basic income research pilots. For the thousands of people who result who benefited from this program, a thousand of which came from my area of Thunder Bay, the ending of the pilot is pushing them back into poverty, dashing their hopes of a real opportunity to build their lives up once again. The basic income pilot allowed the participants to seek higher education, improve their living situation, eat healthy food once again, and begin to change the cycle that left them in poverty in the first place. Speaker, I have example upon example of my constituents on the program who told me that being on the pilot allowed them to dream of a better life in the future as they worked their way through the opportunity presented by this forward thinking research project. There was no question in my mind that the government was callously short-sighted when they decided to end the basic income pilot, which is why I'm calling on them today to reverse that decision and let the pilot run its three-year course. There is much we have already learned from the people on this program and it is my belief that the completion of the pilot would provide us with incredibly useful analysis and insight into the keys to ending poverty in the province, something I would like to believe that all parties in this legislature would be equally eager to find out. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. Member Stamets, Member for Burlington. Thank you, Speaker. I want to congratulate the extraordinary athletes from Burlington who had the experience of a lifetime when they won several medals at the 2019 Special Olympics World Summer Games in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Sarah Lynn Lisi, a 31-year-old gymnast placed first and second in 10-event Speaker. Sarah is an 18-year-old and participated previously in the Canadian Summer Special Olympics in both Vancouver and Nova Scotia. She says the experience has met many new friends and developed new skills. Connor Joseph Mahoney is an 18-year-old and is a competitive swimmer. I had the pleasure of meeting him and his father Tom Mahoney who is a swim coach for the Special Olympics when they came into my Burlington office to pick up some Ontario pins to take with them to Abu Dhabi. Connor's favorite events are the butterfly backstroke and the crawl and he is fast speaker. Connor has won many medals in the qualifying Special Olympics here in Canada and in his first trip to the world he placed second in the 50-meter butterfly participating and placing in six events. I know I can speak for everyone in this chamber when I say congratulations to Sarah and Connor on their excellent performances at the World Summer Games. More than 45,000 Canadian children, youth and adults with an intellectual disability participated in programs run with the support of local support clubs across the country. They are supported by a network of 21,000 volunteers. Can you imagine, Speaker, these Canadians are committed to helping accomplish something truly remarkable. Thank you so much Speaker. I wish I had more time to go on, but with another shout out to them. I'm so proud of them. Thank you very much. Member Stevens, Member for Essex. Thank you very much, Speaker. I rise today on behalf of the constituents of my riding of Essex. Shocked but not surprised. Speaker, last week the Doug Ford Government announced that it was going to spend $1.2 billion on 123 various infrastructure projects around the province of Ontario. Conspicuous in its absence was the Highway 3 project that that would be completed or needs to be completed from Essex to Leamington linking up that vital route to the Herb Grey Parkway, a route that has an enormous amount of traffic volume, a difference of volume with heavy industrial, agricultural traffic and then your daily commuters that are working their way to the feeder plants and the Tier 1 plants, automotive plants in Windsor and Essex County. There has been an enormous amount of accidents on that on that roadway. It needs to be widened. That volume of traffic makes that roadway unsafe and it is the provincial government's responsibility to finish that roadway. Speaker, during the election the Premier came down and made that commitment. He said he was going to immediately finish that roadway. Immediately. Well we've seen him act with the immediacy when it came to put in beers and convenience stores. We've seen him act with immediacy to put $1 beer on the shelves. But when it comes to the lives and health and safety of the people in my riding, he's nowhere to be found. Speaker, it's obvious now that it wasn't just a broken promise. He would say anything to get elected in that riding. It's unbelievable, Speaker. We call on this provincial government to do the right thing, finish that roadway. I've seen it happen before. We've seen commitments from the previous government. They didn't do it. They didn't honor Bruce Crozier's legacy. A man that you sat with, Speaker, that you know very well, fought for that project. We want to see this government or they're going to suffer the same fate as the Liberals did down in southwestern Ontario and be vanquished from any riding that they make promises towards. Speaker, thank you. Member Statements. Member for Oakville. Yes, thank you, Mr. Speaker. This past week was the annual Oakville Chamber of Commerce business awards dinner held with the local Rotary Club. The Oakville Chamber of Commerce is the fifth largest Chamber of Commerce in the province and provides local members with the opportunity to collaborate, network and share ideas in a social setting. Their business excellence dinner event takes the time to recognize the great work of local business leaders and companies at Oakville that help contribute to our local economy. I have to say the event was fantastic, but there was one common theme I heard over and over or over again from business leaders. They are very, the business leaders are very focused and very excited by what our government is doing with the open for business changes being proposed by our government. People who are very happy to hear our government's plan to reduce regulations by 25% and are excited to see that we are working hard to ensure Ontario becomes a more competitive jurisdiction and the economic engine of Canada again. I'd like to extend my congratulations to all the award winners from last week. Geotab for the business icon award, Maycourt Club of Oakville for the charity nonprofit of the year award, Oakville Soccer Club for the Community Builder award, Encore Market Engagement for the Large Business Award, Life Best Reward Innovations for the Midsize Business Award, Sounds Good AVS for the Small Business Awards, Oakville Academy of the Arts for the Service Industry Award, Blake Wyatt for the Young Professional and Entrepreneur of the Year, and Mauser Packaging Solutions for the Energy Conservation Award. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Members' statements. Remember for Willowdale. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. It's an honor to rise today to speak about something that is very important to me and to many fellow Willowdale-ers. Last Thursday, the City of Toronto marked a new beginning, the start of something very special, the start of a new era. Mr. Speaker, on March 28th at the Rogers Center, our beloved Toronto Blue Jays officially kicked off their 2019 season. Now although there is no denying that this may not be the championship season Jays fans are hoping for, it is a year to rebuild and invest for future seasons. We've been developing an exciting group of young prospects and others and they are ready for the big leagues. The World Series, Mr. Speaker, is within our grasp. The Jays are on a path to rebuild on a sustainable and practical timeline. They need to make some tough decisions now to make sure that the team is competitive down the road. It's incredibly important to recognize as the managing staff in the front office does that to pave the way for prosperity sometimes you have to make hard choices, transform and think outside the box. Under the leadership of the new manager Charlie Montoya, the Jays will gear up for the new season of baseball. Not only are the Jays Toronto's team, they are Ontario's team and indeed Canada's team. Here I invite my colleagues on both sides of the house to enjoy the summer as we cheer on the blue Jays. Go Jays go, let's play ball. Thank you. Thank you. That concludes our time for member statements.


Okay, Bilal, you won your game today against Irene Sukandar. Tell us something about the game. It was a nice game, I think. I played this new move G4, and I had a good end game very early in the game. So it was pleasant for me and easy to play. Yeah. So should she have taken on G4? No, she didn't. She didn't, but should she? Ah, she can, yeah, she can. Yeah? Were you imitating Mamid Yarov? Yeah, I saw he played G4, but not in the same position, but the same idea, and so I worked on this G4 after 93 bishop before. So that's all your own work? Yeah. Okay, and we need a name for this. We need to name it after you. So you have to find, yeah? We're going to work on a name for this opening. Okay, let's look at the game. Okay, Bilal, at this point you came up with an innovation very early in the game. You played G4. Tell us something about this idea. I saw the game Mamid Yarov played, so I wanted to try this idea, but not in the same position. And yeah, this G4 is a new move. Yeah? No games on the database? No game, yeah. Yeah? So you worked on this? Yeah, I worked on this last week, yeah. And I presume you're not going to tell us what happens after Knight takes G4? Well, I can tell you. You're happy to tell us? Yeah. Okay, tell us about it. So Knight G4, so I have two possibilities. I can play E4 or 93. So I wanted to play 93, because I analyzed E4 first, but it's not clear. And here on 93, Castle, Rook G1, 5, H3, 96. Here I played this Rook F7 and 95. I think it could be 3 first. And a very complicated position. So that's what we have to expect. If you ever play it again, it's what people will be looking at. But I don't know if I will play it this way. Yeah, okay. It was one try. Okay, so probably the same with Mamad Yarov, I should think. Yeah, I think so. We're not going to see that again for a moment. In the rugby game, probably? Yeah. You'll probably leave it two or three years, and then some rapid play, so we'll play it again. And I guess we might see you do the same thing. Okay, so we jumped forward in this game, because Irene didn't take that. And the game kind of developed normally. Yeah. And you want to have a look at the position. I think it was moved 30 or 31, something like this. Yeah. And you played... Rugby 5. Rugby 5, yes. So I sacrificed the rook. Yes, the exchange, yeah. The exchange, yeah. And then I will win this pawn. Yeah. Very important pawn, yeah. So this time she does accept... Yes, it is, isn't it? Yeah, she cannot play this, because I can take the pawn. Yeah. This was the funny line. Game over. Yeah. Okay, nice. Okay, so she has to go back to DA. I can take with the rook. Okay. And then I have all the squares for my knight and my bishop. So it's very easy to play. Yeah. And also the rooks cannot move. Yes. It's very passive now, isn't it, for black. Okay, so we move on. B6 has to be played. We should d3. And black tries to exchange the knight, but you're not having that. You keep it. And it's nice, isn't it? Okay. And you play e4, okay? You just have a very nice game, don't you? Okay, you've sacrificed the exchange. Yeah. But you have control of the board. I think she shouldn't take the rook. Really? Yeah. If we go back to that, what was the alternative in this position? I was thinking about... Yeah, just knight here. I can take the pawn, but... And she will attack this pawn. Which is hard to defend, I guess. I wanted to play this. Oh yeah, she can defend it. Probably I'm winning, but it's not easy like the game. Yeah, you've got such a powerful position. I cannot make a mistake. Every move is easy for me. Yes. So you just felt comfortable because it's easy to play. Yeah, very easy. So it does put pressure on the opponent when you get those kind of positions, doesn't it? Okay. But she defends it very well, so we played a long game. Yes. Any other key positions? Should we jump to the end of the game? Yeah, at the end. When I play the c5. Okay, let's look at the start. So you play c5? C5, yeah. So she can look, take. Checkmate. Yeah. Nice. So she has to play b, take, c. Yeah, and then knight c4. And I win the rook. Oh, nice. She honors d6. And she took on d5 and then I take the rook. Yeah. Like the game. Okay. This was winning. Okay. Thank you very much. Thank you.


Hey guys, this week in the rundown, online training for leaders has been released for the new Blinnit Retirement System. We're meeting the new CMP, Vice Admiral Robert Burke, and we'll talk about the new Pregnancy and Parenthood mobile app. The first of four online training courses for the military's new retirement system was released this week for leaders. The courses aimed at helping leaders understand the upcoming Blinnit Retirement System before service members are introduced to it. The course is available on the Joint Knowledge Online website. Check out our story on navy.mil for a link to the training. It will also be posted on Navy eLearning soon. Three additional online courses for financial specialists, new assessions, and those who are eligible to opt into the new system will be available in the coming months to help sailors and their families learn more about the new retirement system. This week, we spoke with the newly appointed 58th Chief of Naval Personnel, Vice Admiral Burke. The Admiral shared his focus as CMP, his expectations, personnel challenges that could affect the fleet, and more. Here's some of that interview. I would say that the priorities really remain as first and foremost, keep the fleet fully and properly manned. We can't afford any movement backwards on that. Admiral Moran really put a lot of efforts in place in improved fleet manning and the feedback that we get from across the fleet. That's made a difference in quality of service and quality of life. Check out the full interview on Navy Live. The Navy's Pregnancy and Parenthood mobile app is now available for sailors who are starting or expanding their families. Some of the topics covered in the app include roles and responsibilities, planning, contraception, pregnancy, health care benefits, leave, and more. Search and download the app on both Android and Apple devices by searching for pregnancy and parenthood. Read our story on Navy.mil which includes links to download the app. Finally, congratulations to the newly selected active duty senior chiefs. Check out the nav admin on NPC for the names of those selected. Well, that's all for this week. For any questions, send us a message at usnpeople at gmail.com. For the Chief of Naval Personnel, I'm MC2 L.J. Berluson. Thanks for watching.
