Welcome to your end of year guide. This guide is for admins who used Clever or Class Link to roster this year and plan to roster with a CSV next year. End your year in five simple steps. Pause your sync, connect with CSOW Support, Disable Clever or Class Link Sharing, Archive Classes, and then Archive Student Accounts. Before we get started, make sure you're signed in to your CSOW for Schools admin account. If you're a district admin, you'll need to complete the following steps for all schools in your district. Access each school's dashboard by tapping on the school name on your district dashboard. Step one, pause your sync district-wide. Pausing your sync in CSOW ensures your data is not archived or changed before you are ready. Navigate to your CSOW district dashboard and tap Manage Roster Sync. Tap Pause Nightly Sync to pause the sync between Clever or Class Link and CSOW. That's it! Your sync is paused. Next, connect with CSOW Support. Write in to CSOW Support and request they remove Clever or Class Link IDs for classes, users, and schools. Wait until CSOW Support has confirmed this step before moving on. Removing the IDs will remove any connection to Clever or Class Link that the existing accounts and classes have. This step is vital to the success of future rostering and class enrollment management. Once CSOW Support has removed Clever or Class Link IDs, you can disable sharing. Please wait until CSOW has confirmed the step is complete. Once confirmed, you can disable the connection between Clever or Class Link and CSOW. Clever users, sign in to your Clever admin account. Tap CSOW, the arrow on the top right, then Disconnect App. Class Link users, sign in to your Class Link admin account, right-click on the CSOW app, then click Remove App. Note that disabling the connection does not archive active classes. Teachers and students can continue using existing classes in CSOW. Now that you have disabled the connection between Clever or Class Link and CSOW, you can bulk archive classes to ensure you have accurate analytics and ensure students are able to easily toggle in and out of next year's classes instead of posting work in their previous year's classes. On your school dashboard under Admin Tools, tap Archive Old Classes. Select a date to archive classes created before that date. We recommend choosing the last day of school or the day you plan to archive classes in order to capture all of the classes that were created before that date. Tap Archive Classes and you're done! Once you archive classes, you can bulk archive student accounts. You need to first archive classes because you won't be able to archive students if they are enrolled in an active class. Archiving student accounts will ensure you have accurate analytics and billing. On your school dashboard under Admin Tools, tap Archive Student Accounts. CSOW will tell you exactly how many students are going to be archived. Tap Archive Old Student Accounts to continue. Don't worry, archiving student accounts does not automatically delete them. No data will be deleted without your knowledge. Archive students will still be in your dashboard, but they will not be taking up licenses. You can restore them at any time. Once you tap Archive Accounts, you're all done! And that's it! In five quick steps, you've set yourself up for a smooth back to school with CSOW. At the start of next school year, you will complete all setup steps, including importing new CSVs. Don't worry, we'll walk you through how to do it. Find setup steps and resources here. We recommend bookmarking this page for quick access. Thanks for joining us today. See you again soon!


Good. How you doing, man? I think just repetition throughout the week. You know, the more we get in here and communicate, get on the same page with Matt, Art knows, you know, what each player kind of consists of, and the more that we can get in here and just wrap stuff out, we're going to be fine. You know, when you miss a number one like that, obviously it hurts, but we got to have a next man up mentality. I think that's kind of Arthur's MO, you know, and the next guy's got to step up. You know, obviously we're worried about Cal. You know, we're here for him. We love him. He's got some stuff that he needs to work out, but he knows that we're here for him.  So Calvin's my locker mate, if you will. So me and him have had some conversations, you know, in the past couple of weeks, and he knows that I'm there for him, and I think when you have stuff like that come up, as long as people around you make themselves available, I think that's the biggest thing.  Yeah, it's a very unique relationship. You know, obviously when I was in Baltimore, we had a pretty special relationship, me, Nick, and Mark. It's just a really fun time when you have two guys like that that make coming to work enjoyable. Because these things are grind. You know, it's not for the faint of heart. You know, when you're playing 20-plus weeks in a season. So having two guys like that in the room that kind of make it fun and light-hearted makes coming to work pretty easy. Right? Yeah. Right. I think that's the beautiful thing of the NFL. It's like a melting pot. You get different backgrounds, different cultures, and you're thrown into the same room, and you become best friends. I consider those two guys my brothers. I do anything for them. And just like I said, it just makes coming to work really fun when you have a dynamic like that. All the time. All the time and he hates it. But I think Arthur has put it in the front of his list to get Lee's career hide done here. So we joke around and kind of poke fun at him, and he loves it, but it's a good time. You know, I kind of lean on Lee pretty heavily as far as like Pass Pro and the run game and stuff like that, just kind of like I did in Baltimore. You know, obviously he's one of the best to ever do it at the position. He's done it for 11 years.  And obviously Kyle's an elite receiver doing his stuff on the outside. So having both of those, you know, ends of the spectrum to pull from is pretty awesome. We just see kind of professor pits out here. Yeah. So what's he like? He's really fun. Me and him kind of have our own inside jokes. We go back and forth because they put a lot on our plate and it's pretty stressful. So I try to keep it as fun as I can, you know. Obviously it's time to lock in.  Time and a place and we definitely find the time.  You don't want people jumping in and offering, this is the way to do it. This is what you need to do. It's just we're here for Calvin and we're making ourselves available. And then it's his job to reach out wherever he sees fit to whoever he sees fit. And Calvin knows that my phone's open all the time and he can call me with anything. How about that? How'd you deal with that? I don't even pay attention to it. That's above my pay grade. I'll let Terry and then figure it out, but I think it passed so I'm still here. I think that I've done everything that I've been asked to do and that's all I can do with my opportunities. Whatever Arthur and those guys scheme up and put me in the position, I'm going to try to do it as best as I can. Yeah. Thank you. Cool, thank you.


The advocate, when we had the press conference, said she'd been working on this for 35 years, 35 years, and there has never been any legislation to address it until now. And it's not lost to me that it happens when it's a majority women council and a black woman speaker. This is the importance of making sure that we have all the voices heard. And I want to shout out the women on my staff. Before I even knew how close this would hit, they brought this to me about two or three years ago. I had no idea what was happening, what was going on. I had no idea how close to home it would hit. And of course, I shared the story with myself and India have been going through. And I have to tell you, even before we got a doctor who started listening and treating my wife like she should be treated, I still didn't see the comparison when they were trying to take her uterus at every turn without even understanding that she wanted to have children. And I'm standing before you today. My wife is cancer-free. Beautiful miracle baby is seven months. And it's amazing. But I haven't shared this part, but when she was born, we immediately told that she and my wife would have to have a blood transfusion. And when you're standing there thinking about people like Shajel Washington and Emma Isaac and the people who were carrying their legacy and thinking about those stories in there, it's a lot. It's a lot to handle. And I know how blessed we are because of how our story turned out. I just can't imagine how many people we lost in those 35 years or more that people have been working on this issue. As the ball president said, this is a heinous disparity that is simply unacceptable. I also can't imagine what would have happened if my wife and I couldn't take off work without thinking about how we're gonna pay the bills. There are so many things that are intertwined and how black women are dying. And also, I remember my wife telling me, we have a beautiful 14-year-old by marriage. The way she was initially treated was the same way she was treated when she was unmarried with no career and no insurance. She's married with a great career, great insurance, and still was treated the same way. It is a simple race issue. And I'm proud of the legislation that we put forward and I'm proud to be part of a legislature that's gonna really move this to the level it needs to be, understanding this is the step that probably should have happened 35 years ago. But it's not gonna stop here. Peace and blessing, love and light to everyone. Thank you so much. Thank you so much to the public advocate and to your daughter for being here and to, again, underlining how much racism shapes these outcomes and is completely preventable. Next, I'd like to pass the mic to Councilmember Farah Lewis. Good afternoon, everyone. I sure did need this, right? Um, first I just, because I see you here, I wanna thank Speaker Adrian Adams because before the overturning of Roe vs. Wade, she was already thinking about how do we combat issues with maternal health in New York City. So if we could give her a quick round of applause for her leadership. And I also just wanna thank Mayor Adams as well for already thinking about the issue that we're combating in the city and that's racial disparities that black women are going through. I know in my district and Council District 45, we have the highest rate of maternal mortality and morbidity in East Flatbush amongst Caribbean women. So this issue is very, very much an issue that I'm passionate about. I used to be in healthcare before I made it into politics and I know how much we need advocates on the ground, as well as City Hall that will address these issues. So I just wanna thank my colleagues who co-sponsors, builds with me 482 and 409, making sure that we're also talking about the conditions that cause maternal health issues like polycystic ovary syndrome. We have a lot of women in New York City who have these conditions and when they go and meet with their doctors, there's no one that could identify what the real issues are. So I just wanna thank the Council for pushing this forward. Thank you, Public Advocate, for always putting women first and thank you, Mayor President, for all that you're doing right now with Birthing Centers in Brooklyn. Thank you. Thank you so much, Councilwoman Farrell-Lewis. In particular, for highlighting Caribbean women, women of Caribbean descent, I think it's really important that we remember how important it is to tailor our work and our messages to communities, specifically who might be having different experiences. I wanna welcome up Councilmember Jennifer Gutierrez next. Thank you. Good afternoon. I wanna thank Speaker Adams for her unwavering leadership and commitment not just as a speaker but as a member. She's truly tied in the notion that when you elect women, you get changes for women that matter at the policy level. So I wanna commend her for her work, for her space in allowing us to pursue this. I of course wanna thank Borough President Antonio Reynoso who in many ways kind of helped me through my pregnancy. I also delivered at Wood Hall and I didn't think about how impactful it was that I was able to work with a midwife and that I was privileged to be a relative of a doula who was there for me when I delivered my child. The experience that our public advocate shared is still truly resonates with me.  Long before we were talking about how important it is, our communities were doing it already. And so this package of bills validates that very indigenous practice that all of our ancestors have already done and really tie money to it, tie timelines to it. I'm excited to see what the report reveals at the end of next year because what we know and what I can anticipate is that the priority areas are going to do a lot better and that we need to invest a lot more energy and funding into ensuring that every pregnant person has the same access to healthcare in this way. So thank you once again to all my colleagues for being my partners and thank you for my mentors and of course our speaker for allowing us this space to get these bills finally passed. Thank you so much, Council Member Gutierrez and thank you again for underlining indigenous practices as a part of this work. Next up, I'd like to welcome Council Member Crystal Hudson. Good afternoon and thank you. I just want to reiterate what everyone has said and to commend the men in the room who are standing with us. As Borough President Reynoso said, the men who get it but the sad truth is that there aren't enough who do and it's always women who are fighting for women and black women who are fighting for black women and women of color who are fighting for ourselves and we need more people to understand that at all of these intersections it takes all of us to advocate for each and every one of us, particularly those of us who are most disproportionately impacted by something like maternal mortality. I launched a black agenda for New York City last year when I was running for city council and it got no shine, no love because it's talking about black people and I'm really proud of the fact that this bill that's the bill that I sponsored that's in this package is the first bill that I've passed and is a direct result of the black agenda for New York City and I know that when black people thrive, all people thrive and I want to keep talking about black people and like we've heard here today, black women and black birthing people are the people who are literally dying regardless of healthcare status regardless of income status. It is literally an issue of racism and so if we don't continue to talk about black people, uplift black people and advocate specifically for black people, then none of us is gonna be okay. So thank you, it's a true honor to be here and thank you to everyone for championing this package of bills including the speaker, the mayor, the public advocate, the borough president, thank you. Thank you so much council member Crystal Hudson. Next up I'd like to welcome council member Julie Menon. Thank you so much. I first of all want to thank our speaker for her incredible dedication and commitment to putting forth this legislative package and assisting all of us in getting these bills through and I also want to thank Dr. Vasan who's gonna be tasked with basically implementing a lot of these incredibly important measures and I also want to acknowledge our health committee chair, Lynn Shulman. So I'm incredibly proud today to stand along with my colleagues and I want to commend them on their incredible bills. As the mayor signed several important bills today including my legislation, intra 490. This bill would direct the department of health and mental hygiene to provide sexual and reproductive health services and conduct research on such health disparities within the city. We can't sit idly by as our daughters all across the nation literally have less rights than we do and that we did by codifying abortion and family planning services as well as counseling, testing for HIV, sexually transmitted infections, particularly for individuals without health insurance. We can ensure New York City is a beacon for all women across the nation. It's critical that our city prepares for the next wave of individuals with safe and accessible sexual and reproductive services and this bill that I'm discussing 490 requires the department of health to do just that. I'm grateful to stand alongside the mayor at today's bill signing as we stand up and protect the rights of women when the Supreme Court did not. New York is gonna continue to remain a leader for abortion access and health access for women. Thank you. Thank you so much, Council Member Menon. And next up we have Council Member Althea Stevens. So when you speak last, they already said a president. Everyone was already thanked and all those things. So I can just jump right into it. But one of the things I just wanted to say that I think is really important is that this is one of my first bills that I'm passing. And two years ago when I first started to run, my little sister's best friend passed away a few hours after giving birth. So it's not lost on me that today I'm standing here that's really going to save lives. A young son is growing up without his mom because we did not have this information access to maternal health care. So today I'm just honored to be here and making sure that the lives that have been lost are being honored as we sign these bills into law. And that's what I really want us to remember and really think about. Because today I'm standing here for Tiffany who passed away because we did not put this in place before. But now with the majority women, as you guys know, we don't just put in legislation. We also think about how do we do this holistically? Which is why this is a package of bills and not just one bill. And so those things are so important. And so thank you Mayor, Speaker Adams, public advocate and the borough presidents for starting this and now we're here to finish it off. So thank you guys all today, appreciate it. Thank you, thank you. And I just, I believe all the important notes have been said. I want to thank the speaker and the amazing team of lawmakers who played such an important role. We all talked about it over and over again about how important it is to deal with the disparities around maternal health and some of the challenges and Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson, Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Rinozo. Thank you for what you're doing in Brooklyn around investing just about all of your capital dollars around this topic and making your legacy and public advocate Shimani Williams. The three of us are part of the Men Who Gets It caucus. We understand we need to be here and be supportive. Yeah. That's what we need to work on. Yeah. Councilwoman Farrell-Louis, Councilmember Christo Hudson, Councilmember Julie Menon, Councilwoman Jennifer, I always get your name but you're your name. Gutierrez. Thank you. Athea Stevens, Lynn Shulman, Mercedes-Nazis, a former nurse, this entire team. And so it's really not much more I can say but just allow my pen to sign the bills. Intro 86-A, 409-A, 472-A, 478-A, 482-A, 490-A, 500-A. Great work coming together to make this happen and thank you for doing this. Woo! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Oh, OK. I have one more. I want to sign the bill. It's based on where everyone has it been. And it's based on those who their bills use 70, four, nine, it's normally 419-A for 86-A. That's you, Jimman? 806-A for over. For 72 that's 8. For 78 that's 8. For 82 that's 8. For 90 that's 8. 509 that's 8. Thank you all.


And welcome to Cooper Union what's happening with human rights around the world on think tech live broadcasting from our downtown studio in Honolulu, Hawaii and one in New York air. I'm your host, Joshua Cooper, and the title of today's episode is strategic litigation to save lives stand up and strategize to save Ukraine. I'm so fortunate to have Anna joining me today to share the important work she does as a strategic litigation lawyer with Ukrainian Helsinki Human Rights Union. But I'm very honored that she would actually share her story with us today about the occupation of her city of Postamel, and its impact it's had on her life as the invaders destroyed many aspects of the beautiful culture of Ukraine. Anna, thank you so much for being with us today. Hi. Thank you for having me. Good morning and good day good evening for everybody. Yes. So, I think I'm going to start with them. There's a lawyer in nearby key 10 kilometers away. And my family also live there. So, and in the early morning of 24 February, around six o'clock, six and 30 am, I was having my breakfast and I got a message from my friends. About the Putin's announced about the special so called special operation of Ukraine and that was me and for me, the real war had been started. And that day, I saw Russian helicopters flying very close to the land over our houses. And I also saw the black smoke in the area of International Airport Antonov, maybe you have heard that was really straight is strategically important for Russians to see this object military to have and bomb key from this place. And so, my family was scared, and they were shocked they didn't expect this so they didn't want to leave their homes that day. Unfortunately, my husband wanted, and we managed to leave a stomach around 10pm with our pets, and taking all these necessary things. So in my head, I said goodbye to my house. And after I think one week and then one week later my neighbors called me and said that my house was destroyed. And meanwhile, my grandmother, my father, my father's wife and my nine year old brother, this ensemble. And in the early morning of 25th February, and the bridge, the two bridge that lead into the key were blown up to be close to my house. We were lucky. And because very constant hostilities, the electricity, the gas and other communications. Anna. Yes, I'm here, sorry. No problem. I know it's, it's under. Pain is conditions and circumstances. Just wanted to make sure you're okay, but please continue. And our heart goes out to the thought of having to leave your home. And then hearing, of course, homes are always the place that we consider. That's based where you retreat to and then hearing that it's been bombed but if you can still continue in the internet's okay. Please keep sharing about Post Malcivi and your family and what happened next. So, as I said, the, the, the ensemble was really cut off give on on 25 February and it was in the, and the Russian vehicles came into a stumble and so I think the house some was occupied from the 24 five so has some and until to second April. The official information was from the Ukrainian government on Russian government we don't have both the time lapse of occupation. So, one day, the second March. My father's wife was my nine year old brother, they trying to leave a stumble to get place warm and safe place. And they were drawing on their red small car. And once they reached the street land or which are leading to airport and tunnel. The car was shot instantly. My father's wife died immediately. My little brother was wounded. She's he stuck in the car and he couldn't get out from the car. And some very good people are very sinful and will be sinful for the whole of life. They risk in their life. Yeah, they saved my brother, they took him out of the car and sheltered. And that's very good that we have, we had some connections and we had an opportunity and we could speak a little bit, one minute, maybe per day. And for a week, my brother, he was hidden in different three different places with different people. Yeah, alone, before my father managed to to found him. So, then they were reunited. I think it was nine at March, yeah, nine, nine, nine March. And they could leave a stumble on 11 March by car on the way. So that was not a green corridor, but it was earlier, earlier than green corridor. However, you know that any green corridor that have been in Ukraine, they are not there. There was no guarantee for safe. A lot of people died during green corridors. So, yeah, that's, that's, that's, that is what I know, and also I know that one of the cases we are working on that our mayor, mayor of our city, he was also killed with his comrades while delivering food and and some stuff that just well volunteering. So, yeah, now the Russians, they didn't follow any humanitarian rules, international humanitarian norms, rules. And they, they, they, they, they left mines in their corpses in her stomach, as we can still believe and the course of our city is destroyed out of buildings. Yes. That's not only about the summer, but also butcher here being we are really close three cities. And we are really now afraid for the second attempt. I think our government is now more ready for this. Yes, it's, it's what we see every day unfolding. And it's so important to hear from you directly about what's happening in your homeland in your community, and more importantly to build the to share exactly how Russia is violating international humanitarian law, and be able to hear directly from you in the work that you do. And we also know the strategic litigation that the Ukrainian Helsinki Human Rights Union is gathering this kind of information. The sad part of course is that it's happening to you and to all of your neighbors. And so maybe you could share with us a bit more about the work of Ukrainian Helsinki Human Rights Union why it was created, and what it does, and then we can also see how important it is going forward to then make sure that hopefully no one else will ever be invaded again and the theme of never again, really more than just a slogan for social justice but a reality in international public law. Yes. First of all, I would like to know that our organization is really big. This is like an association, not organization but an association of different human rights organization. And this sense, and therefore this is the biggest human rights organization in Ukraine. So, we also have some part interest in before the European Court of Human Rights. Anna, thank you so much. I know we lost you there. No, we know it's, it's horrendous conditions, but we thank you so much for making time. And we had been sharing your website so you can continue again I know you're talking about being an association and really an umbrella of many NGOs, demanding and organizing for universal values that of course are also important to the people of Ukraine so we can just start there with the work of the association, and then maybe we can get into. If there is a typical day what are some of the main projects and actions that you're taking regarding this current conflict that has begun, and of course, building on the example that you shared with us with the personal project story as well. So, with a lot of different directions, the educational programs for people, for teachers, for judges, for advocates to maintain their, to increase their knowledge of human rights. The second is documenting human rights violations and especially war crimes. Yeah, this project and this center was created in 2014, and the center was to be closed. I think in December, but now we know that we are also, we are, again, is looking for the stuff for this center. And also this center wrote, has wrote the stories and the guides, not the guides, but the little books about history of different cities in the eastern of Ukraine, explaining the chronology of military action, hostilities, and the military and the war crimes that had been committed on the territories. The strategic litigation center where I work. So we are focused on European Court of Human Rights. And also we have the local offices where our lawyers provide free legal aid and consultations for people. So everybody from the street can just come and give the consultation on different legal issues and problems. So, that's our main project. We were in global, yeah, and also, we are, we were also, we have the people who, the specialists who work in on advocating, advocating a law and provide expert, assessments of law amendments, proposal, some projects, draft law, something like this. Now also, but I'm only, we are very big organization, more than 100 people, I think. So I'm more focused on my strategic litigation center. And now we also have a lot of new projects. For example, we run the reviews of everything is a game is internet. Yes. Good point, I hear you. I hear you and we very much want to hear about maybe two areas. Can you share with us. The examples of war crimes that you have been able to document what are the most serious ones. And then maybe we can expand a bit into what you talked about with some of those new initiatives that you were describing that you're working on those would both be very fascinating for the world to be know about. Yes.  And we have such accidents and such cases in butcher that's close to a stumble. Yes. And that's not only girls, but also little boys. So yeah, I think this types of crime are the most because, as you know, like children are the most. I think the most protectable on the international humanitarian law and that's unimaginable how they could treat them like this. Yes, and also a lot of what I what I mean, the fixed go is the most of the crimes is the shooting of the cars and shooting the civilians just and the people who die in in the houses as a result of bombing. That's was my, the most of the crimes I have documented. We have heard many people now will never forget the word of Bukha but they don't know the map of Ukraine so you being able to share how close you live, and also some specific examples of the violations of the UN convention on the rights of the child but also humanitarian law that that children of course have a special protection because of their vulnerability. And as you shared that there was rape of young girls and women but then also boys and just the brutality of the actions against innocent civilians who have done nothing. I was just trying to survive while Putin is increasing his attacks, and of course, letting and encouraging the soldiers, where we saw he gave an award to some of the soldiers, Italian that had done some of the most brutal documented violations of humanitarian law. So we, we thank you so much, Anna for being able to share with us. And the other point that you were talking about was you were actually getting into some of the new strategic litigation initiatives that you're taking and those are, are equally important. And as we look at what is going on. We thank you so much for being able to stay with us during this time, and we can hear you. And we will be able to make this work well because people around the world do want to know what's happened. We know that many people were trapped in Mario pool and you're just getting the information now. We know also that the quarters you're describing are not accessible we've even heard that people are forced to go to Russia, and that the only quarter to leave a city where the bombing and violence is taking place is to go into Russia, which of course no one would want to go after experiencing what you have shared of your home being bombed of your brother and father being attacked and her his partner being murdered there so we thank you so much for for taking the time to share with us about the ongoing Russian attacks and Ukraine, even blocking the World Food Program from reaching the seas cities with nutritional aid and disrupting any food that's even going to other parts of the world so if you do want to share and you can about some of the new actions that you're taking. We agree with you as well as with Secretary General Gutierrez that work is evil. And we know there's more actions that we're documenting to cooperate with the International Criminal Court but please give us some insights to the important works that that you do. I'm sorry for the change like location I hope you can see me. It's fine. Absolutely. So thank you. As long as you're safe is most important. Okay, so first of all, everyone of our center is writing legal articles, because the legislations are changed, very almost every day and there are a lot of new rules. So, yes, the second one. We created an instruction on how to apply to European Court of Human Rights, not only for the lawyer but also that this is instruction is quite simple and every person could follow the instructions and submit an application. So we developed the drafts of typical situations, murder, enforced disappearance, arbitrary detention, torture, property damage and also we provided in this instruction with drafts of crime reports to both to Ukrainian and Russian law enforcement agencies and moreover we are now working on the chat bot, which will, which is supposed to create an application to the European Court of Human Rights on the algorithms based on the, on the information provided by the applicant on the messengers. We also have, we also continue documenting work crimes together with other organization and in order to, to forward this information to the international criminal court court. We have project on Ukrainian about Ukrainian war prisoners, and also about Russian war prisoners prisoners but here I want to stress that we don't protect them. But we rather looking for the evidence of the war crimes, in which this particular war Russian prisoners may be involved in order to proceed the criminal investigations. And this information may also be forward to the foreign law enforcement agencies because some of the European countries, they have quite good implementation of universal jurisdiction principle, and they are already started and they will already launch their own criminal proceedings and we do appreciate this very much, because you never know when the, where the suspect person will appear, yeah, and when. So, yeah, also we have everybody works on individual individual cases. Where it contains questioning applicants, witnesses, collecting evidence, filling crime reports within Ukrainian and Russian law enforcement agencies, and filling applications complaints to the European Court of Human Rights and also request on the rule, 39 of the rule of the court for interim measures. And this mechanism is the most relevant to the name of the topic of this stream, I think, because, especially this procedure can affect and change the situation promptly. For example, I would like to tell you about the rule, 39 about the stomach. On, yeah, on nine, ninth March, the European Court of Human Rights made the rules and decision on interim measures and indicated Russian government to ensure free access of the civilians. To the green corridors. And I don't know, maybe this is, this is, this is not linked, but on nine, the day before the first green corridor was announced for a stomach. So maybe this was just accident. I don't know. I appreciate it. It's a good point to show the rule of law and to show the creativity behind this strategic litigation. We appreciate you talking about the international criminal court at the global level, but many people are not aware of the European Court of Human Rights and it's great for you to get into specific articles that you are, but then also your aspect of national universal jurisdiction at the national level we know Germany just prosecuted a case in Syria. So all of the arsenal of advocacy that you're doing is absolutely important. It's true, maybe we might not be able to measure exactly, but we know we must combine all of the opportunities to organize to ensure the rule of law. I know we're running out of time today on a, but we would definitely like to continue the conversation when you have more time and we thank you so much for sharing with us the important work of your association. And we thank you for your bravery and all the work that you're doing that even when you see what is happening all around you you still stand up for human rights, and we applaud your bravery. And we're sending Aloha from Hawaii. Thank you so much for having and for your attention to Ukraine. Please keep doing this. Thank you. Thank you, and we will keep reporting and monitoring how we're able to use international humanitarian law, focusing on war crimes and crimes against humanity, but also the international human rights mechanisms that exist at the global, as well as the international level, and I do agree with you that the universal jurisdiction claims is very true because you never know where those soldiers who have committed those crimes might be in the future but what you're doing is, is laying a precedence that if anyone ever thinks they can invade another country and operate without any consequences that will make sure that laws as strong as possible to know that they will have their date in the court of law. So it's definitely happening in the court of public opinion around the world, as the world stands in solidarity with you and your people as you fight for freedom. Yes, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Bye bye. Aloha. Bye. Mahalo.


I'm around in the middle seat here and we're here in post analysis of the event game-changing announcement, HP announcing Project Moonshot which is going to change a game and server, technology, chips, integration, footprint, energy savings, power management for the data center. So you're on stage there. Is this a real deal? Well I think the quarterback was really on target today. Sorry wrong It's a West Coast offense for HP taking a first step in the arm using this new architecture at server scale.  Is this a real deal? Tell us your analysis. We've got a big audience here waiting for you, your comments. You know it was a small intimate event downstairs, so we got 1,600 people watching. So take us through sort of what you're taking. Explain what happened. What does this mean? Well I think the significance is they've, the underlying problem has been around for a long time. The fact that servers consume lots of power, there's continual pressure on people in big data centers to reduce the power to improve their workload efficiency. We've basically been trapped is the wrong word, but we've basically been in an environment where it was assumed that you'd have an x86 instruction set and a processor from AMD or Intel. And nobody, you know that's basically kind of the recipe people have been working with. What we've got here is a confluence, I think, of two or three really significant factors coming together. One is really good underlying processor architecture engineered by some people who understood servers. Second is a partner, you know, a system level partner like HP that can take a good technology and push it out into the market with a tremendous base. And three is a convergence of all of the software environment needed. The things like a Linux distribution tools. So yes, I think this is a significant event. It's not going to instantly displace x86 servers in the data center, but I think it stands a pretty good chance of capturing a significant chunk of a rapidly growing niche, which is this web 2.0 for one of a better term. You know, these very large scale web-facing environments where people are running thousands and thousands of servers on a single application. Why wouldn't you use a low power chip like this for those applications? I mean, is it going to be a dominant like 90% of that marketplace or are there reasons why you wouldn't use it? There are reasons why you wouldn't use it. Right now a lot of its workload characteristics are unknown. So there's a significant issue in characterizing the workloads understanding what works what doesn't. But once it's established that a given workload works well on this, particularly among this small number of very big customers who own their entire technology stack, there'll be a tremendous pressure on them to start using it because it's ultra-efficient. So there will be a lot of pressure. The other significant thing here, which is kind of was quietly stated, but is happening is HP's redstone system architecture is kind of redefining the layers of the system engineering stack. The architecture that they've got with their redstone system accepts the Calzita modules at the fabric level and HP is then is it responsible for the rest of the system? What that means is that this is a way to for HP to integrate successive generations of technology as long as it outputs that fabric definition. So HP has now created a platform where they have a tremendous amount of agility going forward in terms of integrating either new things like ARM or even x86, which they've said is on the roadmap. Does this change any of the go to markets plans for product lines? Obviously purpose-built type technology like this as specific benefits as you mentioned, but is this going to change with redstone and HP's experience getting products to market faster? I think definitely. It has to because if it doesn't, they will have been willfully negligent and none of those organizations are like that. In fact, I actually worked for HP for four years. I was director of blade system strategy from 2006 to 2010 and I know several of these people and it's obvious to me from the people I'm meeting that I used to work with that the hyperscale program has skimmed some of the best and the brightest from the other organizations. So there not only is this a serious program but they've seriously staffed it with some impressive talent. Well, so you know well from your blade's background that a lot of the the messaging around blades have shared resources. Absolutely. This is that on steroids, isn't it? Absolutely. The notion of factoring out common elements so they can be shared goes back to the earliest versions of the earliest iterations of the blade server cycle and in an x86 technology platform that was a very strong message and this is taking it as you say on this is on steroids and the ARM architecture itself for the processor geeks in the audience the ARM architecture itself is very interesting because it was designed from the beginning to be a thing that turned on and off at short intervals and you know can power on and off chunks of itself so it's a great architecture for low power servers. The software was always a barrier and that's the thing that's one of the elegant pieces of this program is the Discovery Center and the software partners they are they're using it as a learning exercise so HP is going to contribute to the industry wide IP in terms of what works on these platforms and at the same time they're going to be first to know about it. So learning on one side but also I'll talk about the commercial aspect you mentioned specific use cases can you elaborate a little bit more on that? First of all like I said it's a work in progress but the kind of use cases that seem to make sense if you look at the performance characteristics of the ARM core you take out things that are heavily CPU intensive it's not going to be a derivatives calculation engine probably it's not going to do HPC structural analysis but there's a true lightweight web serving static web pages even lightweight dynamic web pages the kind of thing you see things you see by the hundreds when you log into a site and I'm not necessarily saying these customers but when you log into Facebook, Amazon etc you know you see hundreds of hundreds of objects served up on a lightweight web page some layers of the mid-tier and that's where it gets a little dicey because I understand some of the Java workloads work well some don't so static web media distribution streaming of media that's something that keeps the processor fairly lightly loaded because it's constantly just spitting out pointers to pointers for blocks of IO Hadoop big data anything that operates you know embarrassingly in parallel so there's a lot of stuff that's that's going to work well and there'll be a there'll be a thrashing period you know okay we have an analyst giving us the scoop here Richard thanks so much we want to get the man of the hour here who gave the keynote Paul and thanks so much for jumping inside the cube thank you


Wagner group founder Yevgeny Prigazin, whose troops have done the bulk of the fighting in and around Bakhmut, said in a video message published by his press service on Friday that what the Russian Defense Ministry had described about the current situation in the city was in fact a route which had seen troops flee. He said Ukraine had been able to completely regain control of a crucial supply road that links Bakhmut with the town of Chesaviar and had ceased useful higher ground. The risk, Prigazin said, was that if more ground were to be lost, Ukrainian forces could gradually encircle Bakhmut. The next step after they enter the Berkivka settlement would be gradual encirclement of Bakhmut, the mercenary leader said. Prigazin, who has been openly feuding with the Defense Ministry for months, has repeatedly accused the top brass of sabotaging Wagner's push for Bakhmut and this week accused them of doing too little to protect Bakhmut's flanks. They need to stop lying right away. If you have fled, build new defense lines, Prigazin told the Russian top military brass.


Hello everybody, how are we all doing today? Welcome to another Aughty Time live stream. How are you guys doing today? It has been a bit of a strange week this week not really sure how to like Characterize exactly what this week has been but Definitely feeling a lot better Then like midst of burnout, so it seems like I'm on sort of a stable positive streak at the moment How are we all doing? Hello Ghostface Draws. Welcome to the stream live stream If you guys haven't been to one of these streams before basically It is an opportunity to ask me anything about autism about mental health about all various sorts of things, so I just saw a super chat. Thank you for the super chat mister Um, oh, you remember for two. Oh, it's not a super chat. It's a membership Thank you, Austin hydrate indeed Is my wet is my mic working okay, Austin? Because it seems like there's a bit of background, but I don't know if I'm using the right mic or not Yeah, so I was the same anything about autism mental health anything that you want to ask me personally About fitness about self-improvement. This is a place to go. No, no wrong questions If I don't want to answer something I just want so don't don't feel any any pressure to like Ask weird it in the right way or anything It's all good Did you do so um? Yes, sir. Okay good At least on YouTube Why is it about it is it bad on Instagram? I have to like move my camera forwards or something. I did have a mic I had like a lapel mic, but I had a very annoying situation before where It went out of charge, but it didn't might make any beep or anything like that So it doesn't like tell me that it's it's disconnected And I remember I think I think it was about a solid seven or eight minutes or like ten minutes Where I was just talking and there was like no audio Exciting Yeah, so um Just thinking about New videos that I'm gonna be putting out soon. Obviously I'm still going with the reaction stuff. It seems to be Seems to be going well And Next week so next month Sort of presentation videos that I've been doing I'm gonna be like pretty much like Well, I've got a list of them should probably check because my brain is not It's it's getting better in terms of processing speed and such, but it's not quite that Things are a bit crazy at the moment I'm gonna be doing a video about like my opinions on certain like Controversial orges and topics because I mean I've had a lot of stuff Happening like on social media and things and people sort of misinterpreting what I've Mental intended or said So I just thought it'd be good to make like a Solid video to like air out my sort of opinions on various things So that will be that one. I'm also gonna be doing a video on autistic fatigue Which is kind of like Basically like like the acute sort of short-term version of Autistic burnout so it's um Is a good one that Where are the other presentation videos I have Once I'm gonna be doing a video on my life as an autistic person so that's gonna be quite an interesting one sort of delving into My experience sort of through primary school to diagnosis secondary school Obviously my taekwondo stuff university sort of traveling years, etc 100% and then a Little bit of an introduction I guess to the channel because I haven't really done like a I did like a channel introduction before But I haven't really done like an updated one like now that I'm trying to like Properly take the content creation seriously, so we'll be doing that so it should be good Uniquely named here says how do you Thomas are you feeling better? I'm yeah, I'm getting there, you know I'm getting there. I'm feeling a little bit more comfortable and Okay, and myself. I think I just got kind of caught up with all like the drama things at the moment Okay says hello. Hello. Hello Larva says hello. Hello Welcome to the stream Okay says In the super chat for thank you very much for that. Okay, I'm borderline autistic and ADHD diagnosed at 42. Do you mean you are borderline autistic? What do you mean that you are you have like BPD autism and ADHD so I'm not too sure But thank you for this super chat, I really appreciate that Nice to see you back King. Thank you. Good luck a Autism and asexualism. Yeah, I mean, I definitely I try to stay away from things that I don't particularly like Have a lot of like personal experience with But I will consider that I will add that to the topic list because I did a podcast with PJ or It's like kind of like the abbreviation of autism and We were talking about autism and asexuality and stuff and that was a really really interesting podcast then Definitely want to do some a bit more stuff because it does seem that like there is a lot of I don't know hate towards asexual individuals, which seems really strange It's like they're not they're not engaging with anyone. I'm like why is what why do people have to like Make up certain. I don't know people people misinterpret a lot online and they don't understand like people's personal experiences I have found that with especially with with the online stuff like Related to disability related to like neurodiversity that people I Don't know. They kind of have sort of a Like the character they sort of characterize the entire movement the entire thing like every single person within that as like being impulsive or trying to get attention or trying to You know do all sorts of different things. They kind of is in sit assume people's intentions with everything and think that like Everybody just impulsively like applies labels to them just to like You know Get some kind of clout, which is absolutely crazy is like there's probably the better ways of going about it than doing that Yeah, that's just what I've seen I Have both is that is that quite is that quite difficult for you? I I did I have done some some research into like Borderline personality disorder and I don't know. I've seen some individuals talk about Like they were they were talking about how I I don't know this it's strange with the personality disorders and that because it's I suppose they're a little bit different, but to like of a sort of psychological diagnosis, but a Lot of people have different theories about like whether like BPD as another expression of another sort of personality disorder or diagnosis And I've heard some people mention about like BPD and autism as well, which seems seems I it's not really something that I've delved into so I can't talk on it for a Large length, but I have seen some people talking about that Which is is interesting. What do you think about that? Okay? Kayla says yes tea time. It is indeed. Have you got your I don't know why I said or tea time I mean it it sounds nice doesn't it? I mean, I'm just coming to the realization about 40 episodes in the I don't drink tea I don't drink tea. Why have I named it or tea time? It seems like a very silly thing to do doesn't it?  It's just usually not in the form of tea Hello Joshua lovely to see you dude and high books right drawn nice to see you again Dax of autism. Hello. Hello. Hello Go space. This is just a question for me How do you deal with stress from things I've been having a lot of stress due to school Also having trouble with my gender as well. How do you deal with it? I think you know stress in general. It's kind of like a pretty stable part of my life, you know It's You know as far as I can remember Into my into my sort of early childhood. I've always been like Extremely anxious and stressed pretty much All of the time I think that there is an aspect of like learning to roll with it a little bit and what I mean is like It's if you do find that you are kind of stressed out quite easily and you're quite anxious That there is a lot that you can do to sort of de-stress you in like the instant, you know But it's to some degree You know depending on the person and the situations whether it's like a situational thing or whether it's just something due to you like Related to you like personality or related to like an anxiety diagnosis It's just let learning to like work with yourself and be like a friend to yourself, you know, it's like if you If you had like a friend who was always just like worried about things all the time It's you know, it what you were doing kind of like in that situation is you would Try and like ground them and you try and like so like it's okay to feel sort of stressed and worried about that I understand and it's just about I guess having a bit more of a kind Approach to yourself and it's not it's not about necessarily just saying like okay. I'm anxious today. I'm not doing anything kind of thing I mean sometimes it can Be to be something to that degree, but it's also like You know, you validate yourself you understand that okay, perhaps today's gonna look a bit different than usual because I am my stress levels are quite high And so you you saw perhaps chop down a little bit of what you do And you basically just try and approach the day trying approach things With the approach of trying it and not necessarily Completing something, you know, you say that oh, okay, I'm gonna try and chip away at this rather than I'm gonna complete this so you know and the stuff with school like I completely Well, I mean I hesitate to say completely, but I do definitely do understand how like stressful the school environment can be I definitely try and mitigate it as much as possible trying use sensory supports perhaps like go to places during the lunch and break times, which are not as Sensory provoking like for me that was the library used to go there quite a bit And just to just try to manage your environment as much as possible that you know like there is a lot that you can do in terms of like reframing things and obviously like Breathing techniques and things like that that can sort of help with stress But I imagine that that you're not looking for me to to give advice like that because that's like pretty much Known by a lot of people who struggle with anxiety and stress But yeah, I hope I hope that's somewhat helpful it's um it's definitely hard and I Definitely just try and experiment with things and see what works for you Deans says hello appreciate your help and info. Thank you very much Kayla says I'm drinking coffee. Yeah, Advita says coffee, please Very much so I Definitely go and check out ghost ghost face drawers. I definitely go and check out some I think I don't know but I do follow this person called like the gender specialist or something I think they make a lot of content around that I'm sure they'll have like something related to more related to like the gender stuff It's not really Something that I've it's have a lot of experience or knowledge around Books right draw says hi mom mom is constantly comparing me to people. She says has autism and survive But I know she only met one autistic person. Would you say that comparison is weak at best? I Don't I think comparison is like quite often not not a good thing like it depends why they're comparing, you know like it's Trying out trying to think just trying to read her again. Just make sure I got it, right? So are they are they using the comparison in order to say that you are able to Do the things that they ask you to do or do the things that you want to do I think that would be Variable But the issue is with comparing like any two autistic people or even comparing an autistic person to Like an holistic individual is that everyone is just widely different different circumstances different privileges different Traits different personalities There's there's so many things that go into like someone's life that someone's success someone's You know any amount of different things that it's it's a very silly thing to do to come like Compare yourself to people a lot of the time unless you're doing it as like a source of inspiration yourself. I would say What do you do for a living? I do public speaking and training and I'm trying to do a little bit more content creation at the moment and enjoying that but it's taking a while to Set up and sort of get everything sorted but once I'm on a roll I should be good to be good I hope you've staying hydrated with some water. Thank you for the reminder. Josh Fuji or hydration chat hydration reminds a specialist I do I've got a very minuscule amount of water left from My gym ventures last night. I Was I went I was very silly Like I was at the gym. I think last night I was at the gym for about four hours Now before you jump to me like be like, okay, you will wait training for four hours like now I I Try and I try and wait train four times a week for two hours Each I do a lot of work sort of doing that. So I try and do like a lot of intensity But I've recently started adding in I've for the new year. I've added in two sessions a week where I will do like an hour an hour of like kicking and Punching and shadow sparring and stuff. So I will be making some like I'm reels and stuff with me doing my boxing and my Muay Thai and my taekwondo and stuff. So Hopefully with time it'll help me get a little bit more healthy in terms of like the cardio from but also like last last night was just a bit of a Flump because I just couldn't get on the machines that I wanted to go on and if you're artistic and you've been to like The gym and you have like a set routine. It's really really difficult to deviate from that or like change the differences and change the differences Change the exercises that you're doing and so I did a lot of waiting and then like I got a bit overwhelmed So I had to like go to the changing room for like half an hour So I so I ended up just with everything combined. It should have been three hours, but it ended over four hours And it was very late But I had a good good sort of walk home it's quite cool outs quite cold out at the moment and Usually that would be a bad thing, but it was quite inviting because of my Cardio stuff I need to like chill out a little bit Physically Big nerd Sammy says hey, how are you doing? I hope you're feeling better. Thank you very much, Sammy I'm not not doing too bad What's in general are your thoughts on autism and OCD I Understand that it's different. There's different things of course, but like but like our autistic people more likely to develop OCD I think some some of the year the traits of autism and OCD are quite like highly sort of connected together So I know I know someone In my in my life who has OCD, I know a couple of people one was Mr. Nick ransom and you know and From from one of the podcasts that I did we're talking about like relationship OCD and Yeah, definitely some of like The four patterns. I mean for myself. I do have a lot of like repetitive thoughts About things that I need to like do during the day and like sort of I Don't know How to explain it. I just I have like repetitive thoughts about certain things that I can't get out of my head until I do them You know, but I don't necessarily Have more of like the stereotypical kind of Stuff related to like cleanliness or like Avoiding bugs and diseases like germaphobia and stuff like that It's not really something that I experience but in terms of like the way that my thoughts work and The way that I organize myself. I think that there is some like crossover with that Yeah, I mean I Kind of I kind of I feel like I get on with people who are like OCD because it's kind of The way the way that we sort of like routine and organization is is is quite similar I would say and like in terms of thoughts and sort of issues that we that we have like in our brain. I feel like we can Empathize with each other quite a bit Hello artsy-martsy pants Or with all respect, of course Oh, I enjoyed tea. I am very behind on the comments. So I apologize peeps Destiny destiny simply me says hey from Canada 40 today, I think living high anxiety makes it hard to recognize that there's anxiety if that makes any sense Yeah, it's I think I know what you mean It's kind of it's hard to to figure out if something is something in your life is causing you anxiety when you are Like because it's it's not necessarily that when you haven't done an anxiety disorder that it's just every day There's just like a little boost to your anxiety. It's very variable sort of day to day and Sometimes it's quite hard to know if something is causing you anxiety or if you're anxious and you're like fixated on something, you know so I definitely like Empathize with that Because puns are the best it's funny that you don't like tea Good employees be less likely to hire you because of autism. Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of stigma around it that is for sure and a lot of them do see it as like a Charity effort rather than like a benefit to their business, which is Something that I try to change a lot with like the presentations that I do Like the training that I do Might not be here for too long as I'm out with friends celebrating my 18th It should be very very soon congratulations Joshua G turning 18. That is awesome Kayla says that's my problem at work. I'm trying to find somewhere away from bright lights Then my brakes might actually be recharging like they should be Yeah, yeah 100% Travel with love says thank you and guests for sharing your experiences. Happy Saturday Everybody greetings from California wish you all the good health success and happiness much love. Thank you. Yeah, the background is fake Hello, Kenzie Paige, nice to see you policies. Hi glad you're doing better today Thank you Do you grimace or contort your face with ASD? I mean I don't I've never heard of it being like associated with autism, but I have like ticks, yeah facial ticks Which I don't really do unless I I'm either like really stressed or Overwhelmed like if my social battery is very low or if I think about it So there's so I'm gonna move on from that one because I don't want to Don't want to do so but You do for health care Probably the usual stuff I would say I Mean a health care wise like obviously Pharmacological intervention is You know has been part of my life since I was very young who to follow Lots of people I couldn't I couldn't definitely like I Couldn't figure out one one individual person You are not autistic. You are normal. I am not normal How dare you I Am as weird as can be and I am very happy in my weirdness, and I am definitely autistic My good Overly honest gaming says I have ADHD with recently diagnosed autistic partner who's very new to this journey Do you have any advice on how I can support her and share information without overloading her delayed processing? I think it's a very personal thing Like I don't particularly know what you're like and what She's like and what your sort of relationship with each other is but you know, perhaps do your own sort of Research and stuff and like if you see like a reel on Instagram or like a post on Instagram, then maybe like Send send them that Send them a video I have I have found that people who are just Like if they're if they're not quite on board with the whole autism thing And they're still sort of bogged down with a lot of stigma and things like that. They can sometimes be quite Defensive in like people wanting to Help help them educate them like around autism If you know, I mean Weirds weird word. I like weird. I like I like being called weird. It's nice tears heaven when one has trouble with sleep You obviously not disabled. You're not autistic. You should see me. I am a real one You're a joker I Maybe I should do a real like so I do have some like footage of me as a kid So I was that I was diagnosed when I was 10 years old I Do have some footage of when I was a kid I'm probably gonna like sit through it at some point just to like do like a video on it I think it would be really cool. Maybe I could do that for my My life of autism thing like incorporate some What's it? Like clips of me as a kid that'd be cool That's just my parents though because I know that it can be somewhat You know, it's like it like family stuff, you know, my dad used to record me Record like me and my brother growing up quite a lot. It was kind of like his special interest for a long time And he was pretty much always like with a camera in his hand apparently mom I'm used to get a bit a bit frustrated with him Sounds like me when I went Travelling crazy. Yes, happy birthday Book says that books right draw says time actually terrified and keep overthinking the worst-case scenario And I'm terrified of losing parents health care at 26 Matt and reckless and looking for jobs who do not hire I'm sorry to hear that Sounds like a difficult time Unique name here says I might have missed something what happened to the reaction streams I was gonna binge a few yesterday while clearing up snow then noticed they were gone at least for me yeah, um, I Have like because I've been trying to think of ways to Sort of make like the membership like a little bit more appealing So I've moved the like the raw streams over to my My membership section but the like The at the actual the actual videos that they're pretty much all sort of edited and put up Onto like in those like separate clips So if you wanted to watch them, you can definitely like just go and look through like all of the the different videos I do sort of edit them and make them it make them a bit cleaner, but they are basically the same thing. I Hope that's okay Uniqueness as Laura reminds me of Joe quiet. You're so weird. You're so weird. I'm autistic. No, you're not. You're so normal It's true It's true. I'd like to learn more about overloading and delayed processing Yeah, may perhaps I should do should do a video on that as well. Let's add that to the topic list with autism and delayed That'd be a good video to do One hundred Katie Pell says hello Thomas. Hello Do you think there's someone with autism could just get away with smoking a lot to improve their symptoms? Um What do you mean get away? I mean, it's You know, I'm very much like in the camp of like what does it mean like a difference like a new a neurodivergency and such So I don't necessarily see it as like a problem to be fixed in that sense Or at least for my own experiences How many of you all have been told you actually have really fast processing but your tension is near non-existent That sounds a little bit more on the ADHD side of things just from from immediate sort of reaction Footage of you as a kid would be great. You can point out all the signs As a kid for others to see. Mmm. That'd be cool Yeah, I'm sorry uniquely. I was just trying to think of like ways to because I've got quite a few members at the moment and I just want to make it like worth it. I guess In a sense and it seems like It's him like the right thing to do But I mean the memberships are out there about a dollar a month So that there is cheap as I can make them, but they do they do help me out a lot Thomas, do you see autism as a difference or a disability? I kind of I'm stepping away a little bit from like the the idea of autism Like autism is definitely like a disability like there's no no doubts about it. I have done some talking on like the aspects of Autism being like inherently disabling and I think it's it's it's a very difficult question to Answer because everyone's individual experiences can be so different So it's it's kind of like a thing that doesn't really need it need to be answered Talking about myself personally, I definitely do not feel like Disordered I think that that's that's the word that people like to use because I understand that like from doing a bit of research that You know claiming kind of the word disability is very much like Integral sort of part of like the advocacy community and so I'm I'm stepping away a little bit from using like talking about My own experiences as not being a disability and it's more like I don't necessarily I'm not necessarily like inherently disordered from being autistic It's only the only the only aspects of me being Disordered tend to come from like mental health conditions particularly. I hope that that that clears up When I yeah get away from pharmaceuticals, I mean, it's I think it's very dependent on the person, you know I I've tried not being on far pharmaceuticals and every single time it has ended badly And that's both like in the short term when I was younger, but also like in the long term Like those, you know, like a year or so where I didn't and it just didn't it just wasn't The best time I couldn't I couldn't really function. So yeah, they are definitely important to me Well, a lot of messages guys struggling to keep keep up today with them. Hello, Katie. Pearl Hello exception. Do you know anything about dyscalculia? um, I Know of it definitely like I've done done some like preliminary reading into her, but it's I Think my my brother's this dyscalculic Yeah I'm definitely not like the best with like mental maps, but I'm pretty good at algebra But I think that's more due to like it being more akin to like a logical puzzle than What I see is like maths, but maybe What you thought some criminals like Elliot Roger and Chris Chan They are both autistic and committed horrible plot crimes. Well, I mean, it's definitely like it's um Like autism is not is not inherently like tied to someone's morality like that that there was for a long time in sort of the history books people Sort of painting autistic people as being like devil children and being like Inherently sort of immoral and bad, which like obviously like in some cultures like in other cultures It's kind of the opposite depending on like where you live and what the culture is around it and so like with kind of the whole out of a kissy movement people tried to somewhat like counteracts that by saying like like Saying kind of like the opposite but autistic people kind of Angels we never lie. We never do anything bad, you know anything about nature Where it's just it's just not true like it's it's really dependent on the person what that person's values what that person's morals are It's very very different person to person you know Being autistic doesn't make you immoral or bad Being autistic doesn't make you great or like a saint, you know It's dependent person to person Paula says my processing speed is definitely slow It makes it hard for me to respond quickly enough so the conversation has already moved on 100% I relate You guys just having a conversation about Mary Jane That video is like popped off quite a bit Jesus like crazy I don't feel disordered, but I do feel disabled I can't perform in a social aspect in the world is social so it can be In its so I can't really be in it in the neurotypical way Thanks for showing your experience lover. Would you say it's difficult? It was difficult when you started to create as a public speaker. Yeah Yeah, 100% I Mean that the reason why I started doing my podcast in the first place was to like improve my own sort of verbal and Communicational skills with other people So I wanted to be able to do to do that like both both for like personal reasons, but also for Like getting Getting a bit more comfortable with Not having a script I guess and I found out that through through doing my podcast that I actually prefer not to use a script I prefer to have like loose bullet points for things. I love to see a bit of discalculia. I Well, I will put it in the I mean again. It's not really something that I have experience with so I tend to Try and do videos and things I have experience with most of the time But I'm sure I could do like a Sort of a basic video on like dyslexia and dyscalculia and maybe like it's links to autism In that sense, I don't know if there is a link or not Paralysis for bad spelling. Don't worry galaka. I Studied function diversity at school as an assistant nurse, but you made me want to learn more So I applied to school so I can do so. Thank you for pushing and helping me improve me. Oh Thank you galaka Same year in good company Exactly, it's a pendulum from inherently evil to inherently good No autistic people are human We are imperfect and capable of anything like no autistic people. Yeah I'm sad Oxy says thank you for showing the opinion Someone diagnosed at 40 and doing pretty well for myself until a major burnout hit find myself confused as to how I feel about my diagnosis Yeah, well, it's it's the whole thing like you know, it's some Very individual thing, you know and don't let anyone kind of take that away from you this kind of Understand it in your own in your own time do some some reading about it. Try and make the adjustments to your life that Give you like help you sort of Function and do the best in life and and be happy and avoid sort of negative feelings and such Once you do that You can kind of like assess like how you feel about it because it is a difference and I do think that there are You know as as we're talking about autism in generality, you know, obviously used to be in general I can't talk about every single person's experience all the time But I do think that in general there are some like positives and negatives I would say Hello smack rag Uniquely joke about being weird slash not weird is this you might hold you hold your head in a nutshell Wherever I know I I feel disabled depends on the day and we're going through Interesting. Hey man props on being jacked. I didn't see that coming. Thank you I mean, I've been working out for like three years now so far It's been going well. Have you tried crud crud on? No, I haven't I've done a lot of research into into things like that and It does seem that there are some some inherent like Potentials of dangerous circumstances with that kind of stuff You know, you've always got to Be posed and like I do somewhat have quite an addictive personality So like with things like like at the moment nicotine is like the biggest thing that is the issue for me So I try I try to Look at things like that and think about whether it would be good or not for me and I Don't I don't think it's it's worth the risk and I don't even know if you can get it in the UK even like easily rather and I don't think it's I Don't think it. I think it's illegal in the UK Same with Carver. I think Hello, Figgy. Nice to see you Red says at this point, I don't even want caffeine anymore. Hmm. I'd see Smartsy pants and exceptional in spectrum. Please stop requesting to come on video Please Nathaniel says talk about the benefits of weight training and autism. Oh, I could go on forever about that I talk about it pretty much every live stream. So perhaps maybe we could not Go into that for this one I would want to work out routine, but I'm tired working my road to a regularly weekly schedule. Yeah, just like work it in Over time Find that caffeine makes me sleepy. I just think I am odd Figgy. Are you ADHD? I Can't remember Thanks for the exposures about THC and Aussies. Yeah Spoke for 30 years and it saved my life Do you find that you have an oral fixation with nicotine? Yeah, I think so I pushed a button once so so sorry must be a glitch kind of try and exit and rejoin Don't worry about it. I don't really know how it works to be honest I mean from from my end it kind of looks like it's constantly flicking on and off for some reason I don't know why it does that. It's weird You're not Thank you exception. See you later caffeine can hinder decision-making research suggests it may lower neuroplasticity I'm trying to learn to make those decisions and learn to grow seems counterintuitive. I Don't think I made HD I have heard from a lot of people who are ADHD that like caffeine can make them sleepy. I Don't know if it's something related to like You know the the reaction that ADHD is can have to like stimulants or something. I don't know if there's Kind of anything related in that sense Maybe a new law just got passed that makes even coffee a reason for DUI where were you based Eric? But hold it says. Hey there Thomas. Hello. Good to see you again Guess who's just finished their first week of a new job and everything so far is going great. Is it perhaps you? Congratulations that is awesome to hear. I hope things go go well for you I think that the assumption that autistic people can't be a moral stems from a tendency to infantilize us You know, I see that I see that they seem that we can't be held accountable for bad things We do any more than the child You know what? I I I I see that 100% I think there's that that is an aspect of it that infantilization It's pretty crazy Do ADHD meds make people feel more autistic? Autistic originally started concerta and my need for a routine a version for change and sensitivities have Have increased I'm getting stuff done now I mean I can I can only speak from like a third person perspective because I'm not I'm not ADHD or haven't been diagnosed But I Have heard it that from from I've done a few podcasts actually on like Audio HD and ADHD and so like the the crossovers and stuff, but it seems like when when people Do things to like I don't know they sort of mitigate the stresses and difficulties that come from like One aspect of themselves like ADHD or autism that the other one just seems a bit more apparent If that makes sense. So maybe it is that when you when you have You know meds that can sort of make functioning a little bit easier in some respects that Maybe you're just a little bit more aware of the autism things. I mean That makes more sense with like the routine and the version to change but like Sensory sensitivities. This seems You know, perhaps there is something related to like Energizing your I don't know. I can I can only like Think Think about it or offer things. I definitely Go check check it out somewhere there. If you if you find out at some point, let me know Or I play bass for the hour Hello, Darkman doll Glad to join your life. God's have you I must be an ADHD because Caffeine can make me sleepy at times Hmm Colorado does have strict laws against driving on the influence of substance that empires driving ability person taking a medication that cause drug drug drowsiness could cause DUI Even if that drug is legal and sold over the counter like coffee or caffeinated beverage I've never heard of people being like charged for Like having a lot of caffeine in the system I do know that like for me it can make my anxiety go crazy sometimes that is for sure Hello for fun studios team. This is unrelated to anything probably, but do you all miss people? Yeah, sometimes I Travelers says for more research, I do ADHD recommend researching Dr. Amen on YouTube Never heard of them. Yeah, I think it can Good luck, I think it can calm in certain doses, but it can also stimulate as well Do you like chocolate? I get through phases of liking chocolate and not liking chocolate Sometimes I'll be like all for it all the time Like craving it all the time and sometimes not so much I love Easter So I love like the Easter egg chocolate. It's so good So good I do vape. That is that is what I do which I'm trying not to Well, I'm not I'm not trying not to you. I'm trying to find myself in Somewhat stable position where I can take some time off to to quit basically But it's hard mental health and stuff. It's it's easy to to have like a crutch, you know, I hopefully it will I'll sort of Find the motivation to do so She says it's only Relatively recently that I realized that people actually mean it when they say they miss people and it wasn't sort of just to keep hyperbolic phrase I I I understand I understand why that might be the case But um, yeah, I do I do it's I think it's it's related to oxytocin I Think that there has been some studies about around like autism and oxytocin and stuff and There was a video that I did about I Have the one where I did with me happy shields where we're talking about like how THC is like a modulator for Like increasing oxytocin and therefore like social reward So I think that may maybe there might be That might that might be why we don't we perhaps don't have as much of a need to be around people all the time as much as others maybe I Mean it's just a just a theory of course, but I think there has been some research around like oxytocin and autism not sure though Would you say that daydreaming can become a force and I definitely get lost in my head a lot of this for sure depends I'd argue that impaired decision-making and increased anxiety Drivers may experience more road rage in this more accidents Hmm, but it is also a cute hyperbolic phrase. Yeah, it is true Scott says do you have a job outside of your channels? Yeah, I do public speaking and Training and I also work sort of as a as a associate for a charity social inclusion charity What is your degree and my degree is in biomedical sciences with industrial experience? That's for sure Vesa pressing is an interesting hormones to study To look at with neurodiversity too. Is that true? I Have heard a little bit about Vesa pressing and stuff. It was quite a It was what when I was I think there's a few modules I did which looked at kind of like hormones and things of that nature What genre of anime do you like a love comedy? It varies. I do like I do like the fighting animes. I think they're they're like at the top of the the list or like the dark and kind of Sort of a G anime is I do like those I also do like some really chill ones as well Yeah, there's there's one that I have watched quite a few times called like neo-yokio it was just kind of I Don't know. He just kind of chilled me out watching it. So I just I watch it sometimes when I'm feeling stressed It's quite quite laid-back. I think Yeah, he's a bodybuilder. I wouldn't say I mean I do bodybuilding. I wouldn't say that I'm I'm a bodybuilder, but I Yeah, I suppose that's that's the same thing, isn't it? but then again like if I don't know at what point you consider yourself like Like if you do if you do rock climbing now and again at what point do you just consider yourself to be a rock climber? And at what point do you consider yourself to be? You but you you like to go rock climbing Do you have any recommendations as hard to make clothes more smooth and soft? I do not know Do not know do not answer any of my previous comments I want to share this channel with my mom Sure Look at dr. Huberman Yeah, I think I saw something related to like a podcast with With him on I have what I've listened to a few of his his pods mostly about like physical health and Like exercise science and stuff for fun those to be quite informative But I do think they recently had an interview with like a doctor talking about autism I don't know if it is Andrew Huberman. It might be someone else, but I Seem to remember people becoming a little bit Upset by that that particular episode So I mean it I am having a slight mental crisis because all of the evidence I've used to downplay my feelings for someone the last 10 years actually May actually just be a lexify me related. I understand that I don't actually know how I should feel about it But it is just bothering me Yeah, I mean Whenever those the situations like like that for me. I just try and In a very autistic way, I try to bring it back to a place of logic and facts, you know Is this like a like a right move for me to like go back to the this person or what or like reconnect or Go for a coffee with or something. Is that gonna be like a a worth while thing for me to do or do I just want to like Chat chat to them for a bit. I mean Obviously like emotions are a big part of it, but I think they are like a part of it, you know Definitely like when you're making decisions about stuff like that. Hello Rita.
