Hey, good afternoon everybody. I wanted to go over something kind of cool today. I found a really cool YouTube channel that is basically deaf news. It's a deaf news website So if you are actually interested in learning more about ASL or interested in the culture, this is a really great YouTube channel to subscribe to it's called the Daily Moth the Daily Moth and let me scroll down real quick Here it is the Daily Moth really good. And so what I really want to focus on today as just like as a quick primer is How different deaf people talk because it's not all the same There's not sign languages in a universal language and even different people who use sign language of the same type Do so differently with different styles And it's really important to know how people express themselves on a person-in-person basis Because that makes us better communicators, too. And that's what this whole channel is about. So Let's look at what's going on. I think what I want to do is just show this quick video Show how the different styles of ASL are used. Let's go at normal speed real quick and Just highlight how it's interesting how there's so many different modes of expression even in the deaf community So check this out deaf news D e a f D e a f for deaf and then news as Then that's how you sign news. So it's not N e W s it's just news. It's such a short word that it's become its own sign. Let's look at that one more time and See that if you didn't see it, let me rewind it real quick But we'll go over it again So the thing is a lot of short words in ASL specifically have become their own sign And so instead of signing N e W s since it kind of flows it just becomes this News and Let me see if I can get a side-by-side and news and news there's gonna be a lot of Things like that in ASL, but if you wanted to you can do any WS that works, too, but news is how you can sign it Anyway D e a f News oh So close right news One last one, and then we'll continue. I just like small things like that. Anyway D e a f News It's pretty good. It's like this Right anyway Anyway, small things. Let's go at normal speed for a little bit. Just get the intro of this video out of the way We'll show you what I'm talking about so reading along the captions says hey a group of deaf and hard hearing animators and Storytellers are teaming up to create a nine-minute 3d animated short film called lift off See I try to time that with how she was signing it, but what I want to do is highlight how The way how she's speaking or the way how she's signing Isn't how the the words and the caption are being played out They're very different and that's because of two things one Grammar and ASL is not the same as grammar when you're speaking in English They're they are different languages and they have their own grammar system, but also this lady has a very particular way of signing and We'll get into it particularly with how it compares to like so many different other people on this channel So what I want to do is slow this down And I want to type out the actual signs that she's saying when she speaks and we can get a better idea of how She's expressing herself. So I will open this up play and We're gonna type out the words that she's saying Test cool. All right, so let's see what we've got deaf news All right, here we go. So teaming group them deaf very interesting way how she signs deaf HOH a M I M a T O R S film animation story Tell person Them together Make Nine Minutes forget that forgive the spelling errors. I'm trying to keep up three Three D film short film Name title Man while she's spelling left off L I F T O F F All right, so let's just stop right there Did I get all the text in there? Hey, not bad. Not bad. Not bad. So there's all the text so you can see the Team group them deaf HOH animators film animation story tell person them together make nine Come on. I'm gonna have to cut me some slack with the The spelling nine minute 3d short film name title left off Those these are the actual signs that she's signing Just the signs not the facials not the the context or the body language. This is like a very rough glossing glossing by the way is like There so I'll explain this real quick There's no writing approved writing system for ASL This is just a shorthand note taking of the signs that I'm getting in order But they don't really have the context of how they're being given. They're just sort of like a like a court Reading, you know, like you know a sonographer who just says what's being said out loud without putting any of the tone behind it So you kind of miss met some of the meaning and so a lot of these words a lot of these Words side-by-side might seem a little confusing But with her facials, which we'll look at in a bit and and just the manner of how she's giving them the signs out They they make much more better context than ASL and so Team group them so like a group of them like a team like a team She's making the group sign or the the class family for group is like this So like a family a team, you know a Crew yeah, like a crew but she's doing with the t symbol So if you know your alphabet, this is letter t and she says a team group them Deaf people she does deaf like this. She goes from her chin up to her ear The way I learned it was from ear to ear chin But you can do it any way you want different people have different styles And as long as you get this or this it counts either way some people get a little Snickety on that, but it doesn't really matter. It's it's they're a grammar There are sticklers in every language and so this can mean deaf this can mean deaf And it's just a stylistic choice at that point or sort of thinking it was like an accent. Anyway, so team Team group them deaf hard of hearing HOH so hard of hearing hard of hearing people are like People aren't completely deaf make people have lost significant amounts of hearing And are just wrapped into wealth culture. Maybe they can talk maybe they can't talk but They can still hear just a little bit, you know So deaf and hard of hearing animators and she didn't sign like animation person She signed that she spelled it out a M. I M a t o r s right film The sign comes from like a movie reel Where you have like a this used to be the sign for like movies way way way back when now people don't know what that means anymore It's like a what do you call them? What's that word?  It's gonna come to me though It's gonna come to you before the end of this video, but now you have a movie reel I'm like a movie spinning real slightly more modern take and it's spinning Who knows what movies will be in the future the sign for it at least they'll probably something much more updated But movie reel kids won't know what it means, but that's what the sign is at least for now. So an animator We didn't say it. We spelled it out film animation Story so this is like a sentence. So if you put a bunch of sentences together it becomes a story tell Person how do you sign person tell person them? Let's see. I don't remember if I saw the sign for person Let's see animation story Tell oh person as in oh, I get it. I get it. See I got confused So it's not it's not story tell a person like a person She's saying like it's a story teller person like story teller. That's what the sign is So these things are compounded a Story tell person a story tell person equals a Story teller story So that's how you say story teller in ASL sometimes you combine terms together And then if you use the the the family class or like this it means instead of saying like an animation It becomes an animator animator, right instead of saying lie Person you becomes liar, right? That's what that that's what that this term means you're talking about a person like a person standing right in front of you and Them did she do them did she do them? I don't know. She did them immediately afterwards. Let's see Story teller them together. Oh that whole group together make Nine So This is how you say a minute right two minutes three three minutes Well, I'm sorry three minutes four minutes five minutes six seven eight nine minutes, right? It's really makes a lot of sense when you think about it. So like these are minutes, right? Like minutes on the clock, right? It's like here's your clock and here's your hands going around it So you just do that for a minute. She's making the sign for nine. So nine minutes and then she'll say three D right So, oh well, she says she doesn't say short. Hmm.  Let's see animation film minute three That's animation. I read that wrong. That was not short Animation short looks different short looks like that or like this There's there's different ways you can sign short you can sign short like this You can sign short like that you need to do this because a short you can talk about a person that short There's a lot of different ways to sign short. So got that mixed up. Anyway, she's signing animation here I thought I saw this but it's this so it's like you're drawing with a Like a pencil or a paintbrush paint brushes like this actually so it's like more like a pencil So animation film film Short I did see short That does say short my bad. I got I did I did see short. I knew I was I'm no I'm not crazy All the time so that says film that short short or short or Short or short. There's a lot of different variations in that for version of short is like this like short, baby. I See I feel I Feel like I'm getting an idea of how she talks more by the choices that she's using so like death from the chin up Short like this Very very clear very well signed But sort of like stresses at some points sort of like a person from maybe like I don't know like Seattle Portland I feel like I get a vibe like if you listen to someone who's like I'm talking like this right and glad is she comes in on Friday nights Can you believe it? It's like I couldn't understand you. Why are you stressing about like that so much like I can't believe it? Oh, what's going on over here? That's a terrible Portland accent. That's what I that's where I'm going for anyway film Name title So name title like the name or the clothing quoting the name of it And then she would should spell L I F T O F F look how she does F F. So off Right, but she goes oh F F or oh F and another F on the side Very very nice. I normally don't like this for like short words off Sometimes I could be confused with up though. So I have to be careful with that. That's my Little note to myself, but like of don't do it like that.  There's a little hop there. There's a little hop between the two F's. Oh wait for it.  All right, so One more time from the top just so we can follow along and then we'll move on Let's see what we have back here. So team group them deaf H OH a and I am a T O R S film Animation for an animation film story Teller person group make nine minute three the animation film It's a short film Named or titled L I F T Oh F F So like I said Different from how it's being captioned because the caption It's like written for English tellers, but for her way of describing it She's like hey, there's a to there's like a group of deaf and hard of hearing animators that are making an animated film together the story teller Or making an animation. Okay, let me back up. So there's a group of deaf hard of hearing Animators and storytellers that are coming together to make a nine minute 3d film Called liftoff. That's basically how she stated and it's so close to how it's already it's so close to how it's already being said here But it's just slightly different. That's all I mean That's all I mean am I a group of deaf and hard of hearing service are teaming up to create nine minute 3d animated short film named called liftoff The captions actually aren't that bad, but it's like the way how she's saying it's different anyway Hopefully hopefully I'll stand up. Look at look at that facials there when she's like 3d film look at her face. That's so great Look at that. It's a short film.  Just gonna delete this text I'll write out the signs and We'll go over the captions and then how she's saying it slightly differently. Yeah, all right, so Story oh no my bad. Sorry guys. That was a good fix time. Okay, so play Looks like we're at liftoff. All right, so story About oh, she signs about differently to to Def Tiara maybe dance person named Be I be I A and Okay, we're gonna take a pause here story is about 22 most likely yeah 22 is to to deaf I Don't know what this was Tiara dance person named the end all right, so The story is about I do my about like this with all my fingers She did her about like this with just one finger Which is a stylistic choice that is interesting and different and I'm not used to seeing it and that's cool Not wrong. It's definitely not wrong. It's just a different way of how A so mutates in different places in different communities so about like this news to her It's the same family sign as like about it like it still looks the same. It's just done slightly differently. And so Story about I'll do it my way, but I'll do it her way about She goes for the sign for age She goes for the sign for age, but she starts with a to so I thought 22 She goes she goes like actually like this and goes to to so like for age to to 22 Because you sign 22 like that 2233 like that so 3 5 would be 35 3 5 3 4 would be 34 33 right you don't just do this you do 33 so she's doing 22 So the story is about a 22 year old Deaf she does deaf like this. I do my death like this deaf Crown dancing Person named V. I. V. I am Okay, and I'm big in tiara Princess a dancing Dancing princess.  Oh, it's ballet dancer. Okay Hmm Well, I don't know how you would sign ballet. I think ballet would just be ballet Has a sign and I forgot what the sign is. You want to look up what ballet is? Let's look up what ballet is ASL ballet Let's look for ballet. Oh Fancy, but it's just this and then it's just some fancy Some extra fancy stuff to it. Okay. I could spell that out, too But she does this for ballet Interesting, it's all good. So Yeah, look at that sign isn't that interesting All right, so The story is about a 22 year old deaf ballet dancer named Vivian. Let's see. How would she say it here? Story is about a 22 year old deaf person a deaf ballet Person named Vivian. Yeah, so it looks like she's compounding deaf dance You know this as ballet kind of looks like what she's doing here a little bit All right We'll just we'll just throw in ballet. We'll give it a benefit of doubt Ballot dance person named Vivian. So it's like she Combining these three signs together Actually, she's combining all these together deaf ballet and a deaf ballet dancer equals deaf ballet dancer named Vivian So the story is about a 22 year old 22 Year, oh, I'm sorry guys. I'm going off this. I'm going off the page A 22 year old deaf ballet dance person or deaf ballet dancer named Vivian And what does it say here? The story is about a 22 year old deaf ballet dancer named Vivian. Oh, these captions are so good One point in this video is to show how the captions are different from what being said. I Give me a sec. Just give me a chance Bear with me because there's a lot of different people in this video and they don't all sound as standard as the Transcript is going but I will say this the captions on this are very very well done. Very very well done. Anyway, so the story is about 20 year old deaf ballet dancer named Vivian This is going to be a 3d animated cartoon coming out in the future Let's see what's going on with the rest of the story named And perfect great. So let's see what's going on. So this is someone else who works on the show She's saying integrates make Don't know what that sign is animation. Don't know what that sign is Best or better? Deaf. Oh, she goes to your to character animation Don't know what that is STU studio studio Okay, and there's a lot of people in the zoom call Coming together with our stories Important. Oh important Okay, so it's important So we're integrated So basically she's saying they were integrated Integrated I'm gonna have to go back. I'm gonna have to go back just a little bit. Sorry guys It's a great Some signs. I didn't know it's kind of hard to see in this angle. So hey here compare and contrast White Hands Making sure I'm not saying anything racist Good contrast. I should say that really good contrast and a Big box to sign it a very very big box to sign it, right? I Can see a lot of what's going on here I can see your facial's very clearly and It's very clear to see where the signs are coming from the lighting is good enough I can see really good definition on the hands the face stands up very well And this is round the angle that I would see someone do ASL in When we move to the next one When we move to this example very very tight box, right like You're really barely in frame. That's okay though But also her signing only comes out in like a very very small square It's just a small picture-in-picture sort of thing I'm sure people are really fluent can pick out everything that's going on here. I'm getting maybe about 80% 60% Okay, so that's integrate. Let's see Integrate make I don't know what that is and there's bad blur And the animation best or better death Character animation she does it with her thumb and then there's an extra sign there. I don't know what that is Do uh-huh, I'm gonna just say come together with our stories Okay, so how How would I translate that before we get to before we get to whatever it said in the captions? Let me make sure you seeing the whole script integrated make animation best better Character animation studio come together. So it's really important to have a diverse cast or a group of people making this animation because it helps us come together and Tell our stories which are important Something like that integrated make animation best better deaf character animation studio come together with our stories important It's important that we have an integrated crew to make the Make to represent to animate deaf characters in the best way possible and we can come together and share our stories Like we value that a lot As generally the gist of it I'm not getting enough words here to make a coherent English sentence, but I get the vibe from it in ASL Let's see how it was translated in the actual news story All right, let's read what happened here Okay, Vivian. Let's see what how they translate it. They said the integrated crews make amazing animation in general How would I say that so the integrated crews make Amazing animation in general like in general is like typically like this Right ASL and In general Let's see this might be in here in general. Yeah in general, right? So that integrated crews make Amazing or just amazing me. I don't know. I'm sure we'll have Amazing animation in general or generally they they make Amazing animations very very much so When they are integrated with different people coming together to make work that's important or That's best to represent deaf characters So the thing is what's being said here isn't what I'm seeing up here But it has the general tone of what is being said Let's see the full thing that's actually said and the best deaf character animation And she's saying best deaf character animation Oh, and I don't know what that sign is Now she's gonna sign finger spell studios Can't okay can't oh there's a sign for can so she's say STU DI Is that you spell studio? No STU D hi studio. That's how you spell it STU Oh That's how you spell studio. Okay, studio ST Oh And she says can come together so two words in there with our Stories and that's important. I think that's how she caps that off Again the captions on there didn't really accurately Have a one-to-one with what's being signed, but like I said English and ASL are different languages if you're gonna sign that a bit more closely to how you would say it in English If you're gonna sign it a little bit closer to I think what would be called like exact signing English Let's see if we can't let's see if we can't nail that ourselves so so the integrated crews make Amazing animation in general and the best deaf character Animation in particular. Oh in particular in particular Animation in particular. That's what that sign means. So not in general, but in particular specifically, right? Okay, got you. I'm with you. I'm with you. I'm with you. Okay in particular in particular So that's a new one for me. I like that Animation in particular that or that s I'm sorry, s tu di o Can work trying to figure out Can work with us can work with us. Is that so she's saying it work with Our Stories can work with So this is with this is without with So can work with our Stories, that's important Okay, not bad not bad not bad not bad. I feel like I got a better idea of what's being said here now One last time from the very top. I'm gonna try to translate what she's saying work sign for sign So let's get a little zoom in on here from the very top. Let's go Integrated Make animation, I don't know what that means best deaf deaf Character animation in particular, right? Studios and you can also do this for studios depending on like, you know, like what what you're actually talking about But studios can come together, I think work with our Stories and That is important more or less And so it's important that we can have integrated, you know animation studios that can share our stories more or less That's that's the vibe of what's being said moving on Much better dynamic in terms of being able to understand what's going on here I will go one last weird thing on this lady to her signing frame is very very small This is a picture-in-picture shot. So like here's your pick really. It's a picture-in-picture and picture-in-picture Because one this frame that I'm showing the video in is it full screen and I have two of them I'm gonna take a gamble I'm allowed to do that. So this is not full screen, right? So this isn't full screen. And so I can't see her in full screen She is in a frame in a frame in a frame in another frame and the signing frame that she is in is very Small very very small. So like it's very important Right because she needs to stay inside her camera frame, right and I just think it just makes It's harder to read compared to the other people like all these signs are coming out around her chest area and Something you'll find with like black people who do sign languages. They sign much bigger Then allowable sometimes Okay, so this guy he has a much better Potential for signing much more clearly and I'm already getting a bit more of his vibe. He's saying that That something let's see What's he say? He says that Have Limit none. Yeah, look at him. He's in the he's leaning forward, right? List possibilities possibilities can can Oh, I love the facials here. I I Change change experiment throw stuff in That guy has great. I understood everything that guy was saying Okay, okay. Okay. I understood literally everything that guy was saying experiment throw throw What we're supposed to be saying experiment imagine Throw throw, okay So this guy was great. This guy had a really really great signing dynamic It was nothing like the last lady, so Let's go back Let's go. Let's read what that the animation said So he says animation has no limits really the possibilities are endless Doesn't say that well, let's see. Let's see Possibilities No, he doesn't say possibilities are endless. He just says he can Change anything he wants to keep doing changes. He can experiment a lot Experiments he can I I imagine he can throw stuff in left and right Yeah, so like the captions made him sound a lot more professional He was actually saying so like if I was gonna paraphrase what he was saying as he was saying it I'd be like so like From the from the signs themselves. It just has that have limit none So like animations have no limit, right? And he actually says right when he's signing to and so like the list of possibilities like the list of Possibilities just keep going and I can I basically keep doing anything. I want I can change anything I want I can experiment as much as I want I can imagine Dude, I can just keep going in I can do anything I want man. That's what he's that's what that's basically how he's saying. He's talking like like Seth Rogen kind of like dude.   There's no limits there, right? Come on, man Like dude the limits are like endless baby. They just keep going going. I can I can do anything I can I can basically do anything I want I can like straight up change things, man Or switch in the body language or experiment with anything I want or I can imagine anything I want dude I can just start Really really love that that is so much more clear That is so much more easier to understand In case he ever reads this that was cool and so much more easy to Understand because he threw his body into it. He put his I'm sorry. He put his body language into it Sorry guys, I take I type that whole thing out and no one ever saw it. Anyway, we can move on I just really really like the way how energetic that guy was and his camera setup was perfect for it Anyway, let's keep going through the video So we're gonna sign a nonprofit organization called signing animation is and let's see how she signs non-profit organization and Signing animation, right? That's what we're preparing for so Let me back up just a little bit. All right, so a a non ah so like there This could this means so many different things but in this case she means like I'm talking about this so like a non-profit so a non-profit Right a non-profit organization named What did she do the old family sign for group? Non-profit Organization so the same family for grouping but she's doing with the old signs. So it's an organization now You see that so and oh and profit organization named S I who look how she's signing now. Oh, she's getting a little she's getting a little fancy with her a non a a non-profit profit Organization Organization named All right, and this is the part where we're gonna start signing, but she She spells a little wonky All right named s I G Oh my gosh Hey Back up. Let's just I'm walking a little bit here named s that's an s I That's an eye, but she's already getting ready to go into the G which should be like this, right? Now she's signing so fast her fingers are going a little wonky, but So this is a G, but she's doing like this. It looks like a looks like a sideways L, but I get it I see the G, but you see the difference here like s I g and I and G she's going s I G I and G right so she's a little bit. It's like that whole Gladys situation It's just like oh, I gotta go over here. I don't know if there's an accent there. Oh, what was that? Look at that Look how that I came out Named s I that was a good. I just like this right G She's getting a little wonky on that G and whoo that was a that looked like a Y though Yeah, and whoo I Or you want to tie them that up? No, you're good. You're good, but it gets a little faster Like especially so as you deal with people who are fluent in ASL They will sign they will fingerspell.  So they're just you might see people are like a our a and I You know what I'm saying right animation, right? You may get that so it's not that bad at all But like there you have to spot where the letters are now. So like that's an I and And then there's the other G and she flops up the G like this Okay, so now she's going back to a and I And whoa Now it's all coming out also suffix suffixes which are very common like Asian or shun or you know We'll get to them, but like very common Subtixes are abbreviated and and just flung out sometimes not one letter at a time especially in this case and you can see it shun, right because you just get so used to spelling it out that it comes muscle memory so a and I and now the rest of the letters are going to come out super fast and a shun, right? That behind that Project project or so this project it's a very beautiful sign project right project So that behind that project that Start Start I like that Start it's like you're starting up something. I used to do my starts like this Start but she's the one like Start and look at the face That's great facials, I love the way she signs so Start this kick And yeah kick starter very our Arter very TR very Just just quickly done because it's common enough that you should know that as long as you see like that It ends in an R and you can kind of see the letters in between you should know what I'm talking about So she's quickly spelling out Kickstarter Kick start kick start Thing kick start thing. She's saying person, but she's means it more like she's not saying person She means more like Framing of a thing. I hope I'm not rushing too fast. You guys might want to buckle in Because I want to take my time with this so I'm just see how much longer this segment. Let's go a couple more sentences, and I won't do our breakdown For zero Thousand I like how she signs that good facial look at these facials cover cost for make first of the thing film the thing She's not saying person. She's saying with her face. So it's like the thing finished Excess succeed more than More than half Money all the money Few days, I didn't focus too well on that. So I'm not quite sure what was all said, but we'll do Let's try to do a sign-by-side on that anyway, I love I love how this guy signs This guy sounds like how black people sign and I love it But I also like the way how this lady signs the lady in between the the small picture-in-picture lady I was like, oh, you're kind of hard to listen. You're kind of hard to watch all right anyway a a group or a non-profit organization name signing any Nation Mm-hmm. Yep them Or that oh geez them or that him them it Him them You guys know you guys know in general I'm trying to say here because if it was them it would be like a group of people But she means the organization and I'm not sure if you call organizations her or him And this is typically her or him. So I'm gonna say that for right now But sometimes you refer to organizations as them in English. It's weird. I know them behind that project that Start this kick starter and then she says kick start Project make oh geez forty zero thousand to the goal to the goal cover cost for make First of the film really for the first cut of the film Where is it? Make first. Oh, it looked like she was saying half there first Yeah, because half is this right That's how you say half starts as one splits into two Looks like she's saying half here cover cost for making first Looks like she says first half of the film or the first cut maybe That finished over exceeded more than So she says that made more then or then More than More so you can say more than or you can be like more than there's two different ways to do it Let's see how she does it exceeds More than it's very fast half. There's half again Faces I love More than half so she says They exceeded their $40,000 gold they made more than half of all the money more than all the money They were aiming for in a few in a few Days right? They made more than all the money they needed in a few days or more than half They made more than half the money they're asking for in 40 days so a nonprofit behind the organization named signing animation started a Kickstarter for them and the Kickstarter project school was $40,000 and they were able to cover and the $40,000 were to cover the cost for making the first Cut of the film the first cut of the film Not first person, but she says it like first cut. I'm saying something different here first cut the first cut of the film and Along with that they made more than half the money for the total project in less than 40 or less than a few days They made more than half and $40,000 needed to make the first cut of the project in a few days. So Let's see how they were saying it With captions just so I make sure I'm not leaving you guys astray Okay, so a nonprofit organization called signing animation is You can say called or named here. She says name, but the sign means both things Behind the project fine. Yep, and there's no ASL word for the so you just go from behind project in signing They they see in this case. It's an organization, but they also use they as well And that's the issue I was having with English before so they don't say that Which I which is what I was having an issue with but they say they but in ASL It's just the organization, right? It's them as the organization. That's very interesting weird thing between English and ASL So anyway started this Kickstarter She fingerspells it but then she goes this Start and I love it. That's such a cute way of doing it There's also the word for kick is like this, but she goes kick start, you know what I'm saying. Come on Pay attention. Oh get about it There's an accent here, it's so good with $40,000 towards the goal they started to start with a $40,000 cold to cover the cost for making the first Cut like right. It's not a person. I'm not saying person here I'm not saying person saying the thing the thing for the film the first cut the first cut, right? That's what I'm saying the film if she's even clarifying here the film Cut the film thing right and that You know, we're already done like it's been done past more than half so like More than or more than or like more than That's like, let me just verify how you say more than ASL more than I say more than more than more than more than became more than right Then is like Then then then that's how you sign them More so more than they they combine the two words together. Does that make sense more than is a combined Sign of more and then so now it's just this right, but you can also do it less than it's more than and she's saying more than half right They've made or they surpassed more than more than half of the money a lot of the facials money for all the money that they needed for that project goal in a few Days a few days or several days, but in this case Because in English several has a connotation So this I mean several or few or a bit But in in the context at least when you translate the English she specifically referred to few Man, we're an hour long. It's only three minute video. Oh my god. I'm so sorry guys You're in the long haul now. We're here. We're here. We're here. Let's just watch Anyone who's made it this far, please leave a comment say hey, I made it I made it in and out and now along into your one minute Video I know there's hopefully we learned some cool stuff though along the way right all right, so Let's keep going So in a few days, we've already surpassed More than half so here's the next couple of sentences that person or that Organization or that project. I'm not sure what the context here is, but she says That thing the film inspires a Real-life Person That person is deaf dancer person named Z a H a N s I am Oh, and I have no idea what that name is. I Had it at Z. Oh It says it there Zana Simon. Oh my gosh. I was like Zendaya I Had no idea what the name was. I was like Z a up. What's gonna be a long name?  I'm not gonna remember all these letters to put in order Why can't it just be like Joe or something? Okay, the film is inspired by a real-life deaf dancer. Yeah, that works She says it a little differently, but she says these signs she says that This that Film inspire real Person a real-life person real-life Person Geez, I look the way. Sorry guys. I Look the way to make sure the spelling was right. I can always fix that in post so that This that that thing the film inspires a real Person a Real-life person that person.  Yeah, and we know that you combine deaf Deaf and dance and person to be a deaf dancer, right and her name is Donna Simon Okay, so the animation was inspired by a real-life person who was also deaf and A dancer and her name was not assignment How did they say the film is inspired by a real-life deaf dancer that's perfect That's perfect. Donna Simon whoever did the captions for these videos very very well done Very well done. Isn't that like so perfect This this that film inspired real-life person that person is deaf dance person her name's on a Simon and then English This film is inspired by a real-life deaf dancer down assignment. That's perfectly perfectly well said but you can see What's being insist the difference between the the more passive way that the sentence is constructed versus how it's being signed is that The signers more of like, you know this film, you know, this film right here It's fired by like a real-life person. Yeah, that that deaf Dancing person. Yeah, her name is Anna Simon There's a little bit more character there, right? That's why I like The dynamic between the caption person and then how she's signing it actually because it's like, oh, there's a little bit more personality Anyway, anyway, let's see. Let's see. Let's see how Xana signs Xana signs To me it's amazing amazing opportunity expressing myself First of all, it's it dances an amazing way for me to express myself first of all second It's a challenge third communication or communication Man, they only let her say those things That's a short so this angle is really really bad But you can barely see half her hands But her face is like Detailing most of the things that she's saying and I'm just basically using her hands to get the keywords together Dance is an amazing opportunity for self-expression Oh, I don't think I found four. Let's see. So she definitely says dance amazing opportunity And then like self-expression and then with her face you have to like tie it together for me to express myself That's how that's how i'm getting it. So again, these aren't the The the news the daily moss captions. These are the captions from the most likely to kick start so It's not that far off though. So dance For me, okay. So how how would I sign this? dance It's an amazing opportunity for self-expression right for self-expression for self-expression, right and I don't see the sign for four here. So opportunity This thing going on here The facials or expressing myself and I guess I get that first of all So dance is an amazing opportunity for self-expression first of all and secondly It's a great way to challenge and I guess she means Challenge for herself challenge for other people and then third because she only literally just says challenge communication And so there's some additional words in here and it's a good way to communicate with other people So it's a good way to challenge. It's a major opportunity. It's a great way to communicate. All right So very interesting way of signing from the the dance or very Very dance like in the way that she expresses herself, right Hey, I'm throwing out a couple of things you fill in the dots because it's art baby Anyway, we're back to my favorite signer right here Let me see if I can sign along with her see if we can speed this up a little bit So I'm going to try to change our view a little bit And we'll sign I will speak out the exact signs that she's saying And then I'll do it again with my paraphrasing and then we'll read the captions afterwards How about that? We'll try that as a format. So directing person Writing person And C. O Founder C. O. Founder C. O. Founder C. O. Founder Okay, oh man. I got to slow down person writing person And and C. O. Company Founder person Co-founder person co-founder. It's a co-founder. Oh, it says co-founder. It's co-founder That person that person all those three people that person's name Is c a oh my god.  It's like, uh, look at that light skin Dude, that's in my car The andre the andre the andre stole my basketball. Which one's the andre?  She's only deaf in one ear. She's deaf, but she's deaf in one ear She's not like that, but it's like it's funny that that's called out in such detail in this in this conversation So like her she's deaf Not only in one ear It's not like that, but she's just like calling it out. Oh my gosh So it's not like it's a bad thing.  Yeah, some remarks Some remarks I'm gonna make sure some remarks Oh from Some remarks from From her so she's saying what she's The the newscaster is going to say some things that the Director writer and co-founder for this project had said and she's a person who is deaf in just one ear all of Oh, man From her and her and out of Making This named I feel like I'm missing something here Make I'm trying to figure this out without reading the subtitles Okay, so she's pointing And a different person who o f A make person Ah, man. I'm gonna have to back up. Sorry guys Some remarks and some remarks from this person and Oh f and of a make person Named what's a make person? Um So like she has some comments from the director writer and co-founder as well as a make person And I don't know what a make person is. Oh, it's a producer Huh, I'm gonna have to look that up asl producer How do you say producer Someone who manufactures someone someone who makes things. Yeah, that's like a machinist though Um So a make person in this context means producer that's interesting.  Sorry s a m m s e p a g No h h h Man, I did not get any of that look sentence. My brain is tired guys. I've been doing this for a while now I don't have to break this down. This is a three minute video. I can read it. Okay, so it's a make person named s a m s a p a h A Okay, cool Oh, what a sweetheart How old is this person? G's and she's a director and a writer. Which one's this Karen power the director? Uh, I'm old. I feel old now. Okay I feel like a It's like a freshman on campus or something Okay. So anyway, let's go back to what she was saying. I'm going back to what I'm going back Uh, I shouldn't say okay we are film I'm sorry our films titled L I F T O waiting for the O F F yeah she's slight oh no she doesn't bump for the F nice it's like it's like let me move this over here it's like freedom it's like freedom F freedom also I think it's like a rocket going up in the air also I think of a rocket blasting off I'm not familiar with this I'm not familiar with that as a saying but okay let me see where's my picture let me uh let me block the captions as I do the translation I have I have a uh special part I have a button in my heart that warms whenever I see obviously young people dress old like obviously like their grandmas also I love these things in the background so like I think it's a fresh style all right so L I F T O T O F F right she looks like she could be a librarian or principal but she looks like she's also like needs her mom to fill out a sick day card for height their senior year of high school or something like that absolute freedom also also for I think it's like a rocket blasting off I don't understand what that reference is I'm gonna have to look that up oh look at that though look at that little piece of art she has in the background there some little acro stuff going on there black lives matter let's go all right all right I see you anyway this guy says I'm just kind of trying to come this up this film is really inspirational or inspiring for deaf hard of hearing hard of hearing for dancers all around in our cities so this film is really here to inspire uh oh he's not done yet so stories real not so these are not real stories uh little work I can't see the signs dude I gotta see the hands man you're just gonna have to trust them not reading these subtitles let me go back to what he was saying this film is truly inspired by many deaf and hard working hard here inspired by or inspirational that's what I want to see if he said real hard of hearing it's okay so I'm missing I'm missing the inspirational part so this is a different guy this is Sam Sapa oh okay so that that film he says truly or really inspired many uh deaf he says deaf the the way how I say that that's interesting inspired by from ear to chimp deaf hard of hearing deaf our dancing people all around so it's either in this so yeah I don't let's see if he's saying I think in this sentence he's either saying it was either inspired by or this film is is is this film is inspired by or this film will inspire I guess he means this film was inspired by because the film hasn't out yet so the film is inspired by deaf people hard of hearing people and dancers all around uh our towns our cities oh he says communities in the subtitles but this means cities community would be like this communities like this let me make sure I'm so he's saying cities cities he's saying cities but he means community and so it's a good correction so yeah this is cities right city town oh it also means community check that out all right I'm wrong okay so city town community whoa good save good save life print so there's an extra meaning to that sign which means community so then I would assign community like this but I guess that could also mean club too how would you sign would you say it like this oh oh interesting okay okay all right I also like to double check sometimes huh oh I don't got time for ads I don't got time for ads okay all right let's continue so you can do community like this or even like this I guess this would mean club anyway the story isn't an actual true uh real work story no but it it picks from a bunch of different foundations and that are true stories from here here various from various true stories that all come together to make to make a film animation film yeah uh what was he signing there uh he's signing he's spelling animation with his hands but he's doing it so fast that he's just loving the whole thing and he kind of has a flubbing kind of way of talking he talks like he talks like a producer he talks like a hey I got that thing from the store and then next thing you know Linda came in and she was saying the thing and then stuff happened next thing you know forget about it yada yada yada we're all millionaires on a yacht baby why you gotta ask so many questions that's how he's talking there's a lot of like words where's like you're emphasizing the very small context in these words but we have to put together all these sentences together so anyway uh let's see anyway am I at two hours yet okay anyway anyway we're learning sign language guys we're we're gonna have a fun time I'm I'm locked in we're gonna finish this whole video believe it or not so anyway um film animation so he's signing animation but look how he's signing he only does like three letters and then he just n so signing for animation a n i n yeah anyway we are back to the sweetheart let's see uh we we are making a kick she does kick like how I do kick a kick start she does start from here rather than here totally fine because we are ready ready we are ready to start uh animating or animation we're ready to start animation we began to kick started because we're ready to start the animation and want enough oh she's saying this flat out enough money to send to the animating people oh god okay we also want okay to build yeah build our very very honestly said and then we go back

donation donation donation oh so many so many so many wow it's like really it's incredible uh inspired it's incredible inspired it's incredible inspired what else is he saying but but oh I get it I get it I get what he's saying but most importantly look how he's signing this tiny little guy this tiny his box of all time he's signing frame is so small it's literally like the sign is of two of his palms I have an aunt who signs like this and it's literally impossible and she talks like this we don't talk to her anymore it's impossible to understand and we just say just next message us we don't got time for this okay look at this guy oh forget about it all right look I'm so it's just so amazing oh it's so amazing oh okay it's just so inspirational and but you know most importantly uh I'm

Maya does this but when she does this she signs what she means what when she signs that because this is the old version for saying what but my version is saying what the way the way how it's moderately done in like say the last I don't know it's been a while kids kids are around they've only been watching Spongebob who knows what they're doing these days but when I was growing up what was

Hey everybody, I want to let you know that I'm going to host a new cohort of the online course that I made a couple years ago called Living in the Gift. I think a couple thousand people have gone through the course, but things like this are a lot more powerful when you do it as a group because a lot of the content is a bit counter-cultural and it's hard to hold a different reality or a different story alone. In fact, we're not actually meant to do that as human beings. But when many people are exploring a different way of seeing, thinking, being, living together, they can hold each other in that state a lot more powerfully. So the basic idea of living in the gift, I mean, there's a lot of dimensions to it, some very practical, some more philosophical or spiritual, you might call them psychological, relational, economic, but the basic understanding is that gift is actually the operating principle of this universe, including yourself.  And to know yourself as a gift is a very powerful transformation in a society that tells us other things. When you know yourself as gift, others are able to see you as a gift as well, and you see others in the same light, understanding that they too are here to bring something to earth in service of life and beauty. So the results are, as we take this knowledge in and practice it, the results are greater generosity and greater gratitude, greater abundance, and also more synchronicity in life, a sense that you don't have to make it all happen under your own will and power, but you are part of something bigger. So yeah, I mean, because obviously the antidote to the world under control that we are intensifyingly, is that a word? That is growing in intensity in our time. The antidote to that is the spirit of gift. So yeah, I would like to invite and welcome you into this exploration and look forward to taking the next step myself and altogether as the next step into living in the gift. Thank you.


So we're now moving to the final Q&A session and there's been a few more questions come in while Stuart's been presenting. Some of them have been related to water flow. So apologies while I look away and just sort of work those through. One of the questions was what is it cost to register for water flow? Stuart, do you want to answer that one? Yes, water flow is completely free to register. So everything you've shown is free? Yes. Great. Got another one here maybe that Stuart, you can answer. Is temporary water from above the Barma Choke likely to be readily available in the last few months of 2019-20 or is it available in limited amounts? Will it continue to be immediately secured by corporate bodies and water investors? You're in a position to answer that one Stuart? Yes. So I think as I discussed in the water flow video, I showed the market overview section. And with it, in there we have the connectivity part. So here we can see that the Barma Choke limit is currently showing open but with a very low volume. It's showing zero mega liters but I think it's currently at 0.5. And so we can use the notification section. We can set an alert for when the IVT opens. And in terms of the second part of the question, what we're witnessing here is that it's a very competitive space, low availability of water generally across the southern basin. We're seeing a range of purchases and people just purchasing when it opens. But I think the key point is that unless the choke opens with a large volume of water which allow a lot of people to participate, it will continue to close pretty quickly. There is a large differential in price across the system there. Great. So it remains a pretty competitive space. I guess the outlook for mine is that there's not a lot there. Obviously we can't really predict can we steward as to what's going to happen in terms of whether that will open. But I guess we've observed with all of the IVTs this year that they're very competitive and when they do open, they open pretty quickly. And I would encourage people to look at what's available now in terms of on water flow but also on some of the state government sites and federal government sites in terms of notification services that are available so that you can be notified when they open. At this point in time, none of them are absolutely real time. So if you know it's getting close and you think it might open, keep an eye on it as well. But that's a good way of keeping track of where things are at or if you're worried something's going to close, you can also set notifications up that way with our app and even with other water market apps that are out there. But I'm just reiterating it is free to register and use everything that's been shown today is free and that's the benefit of having got a grant from the federal government. I've got a question here on can the presenters comment on the influence on temporary water prices that the need to balance your use versus your allocation and is this impacting on the efficiency of the market? Obviously in times like what we've witnessed in 2019-20 and if 2021 ends up being another dry year, it's of heightened importance that irrigators are keeping a really close eye on their use of water and what is actually available under your licensing arrangements for your water. And this is particularly important when prices are high because you don't want to find yourself in a situation where you've used more than you have available and you have to step into the market to make up the difference. So it's a time of, you know, these times when we encourage people to be absolutely vigilant in terms of what they got in terms of their use and part of that will come out of the quarterly balancing information but we encourage you even just to keep an eye on your understanding as to the use and how often you're having to apply water to the crop. I've just had a comment from one of the other presenters come through saying that we will be issuing a list of FAQs at the end of this session to cover off on anything that I might have missed in terms of key questions or that there wasn't someone on the list of available to answer it. But I think we've covered off on pretty much all of the questions that have had thus far. I'm just going to my question log and I notice that there's going to be a couple more questions here. There's one more here on carryover. Is there going to be carryover allowed from 1920 to 2021 season? I think we've probably covered off on that one already but I don't know if Jared if you want to add anything further. Certainly people that demonstrate underuse in 1920 would be eligible for private carryover should the minister announce private carryover being made available on the 15th next week. Excellent. So if they've got it and it's available it should be available next year subject to where we start heading over the balance in the next couple of months in terms of rainfall and availability across the southern basin. So Rod it's down here. So the call will be made next week and when a carryover is available thinks here or not and so basically it's a function really deciding allocation as of one July and given that we're already at a very low level of storage and lower than last year people can draw their own conclusions regarding the likelihood of it being announced next week. And we also have a reasonable volume of water for private carryover sitting up in Dartmouth as well. There's just under 100 gigalitres sitting in there and we haven't called upon that volume of water this year. So we're still waiting on the MDA's final numbers but certainly the call will be finalised next week but obviously given current storage levels you'd say it's likely. Thank you both. I'm just looking it looks like the questions have largely petered out at this stage. There may be some that I've missed apologies if I have but we will capture those in FAQs. We've just had a nice comment come in saying excellent presentation, great value and really appreciated. Thanks very much for everyone. From our perspective, thanks very much. We've had over 300 participants in this webinar which is a really great outcome. I'd like to in making some closing remarks make sure that everyone clicks on the resources that are on the webinar and that they note free access to water flow. If that's something that is a benefit to you. I'd like to thank various participants. We've had Jared Eaton, Dan Jordan, Kim Alton, Stuart McLaughlin and Christine Fiverr who's been sitting in the background as well assisting us. And Amanda Lay who's been assisting us at our end as well in making all this happen. This has come to you with thanks from the Department of Environment and Water and POSA. There's another one, another webinar that will be coming. So keep an eye out for, first of all, the minimum projected opening allocation announcements next Wednesday the 15th of April. We uploaded to the Department of Environment and Water's website and will be distributed by email. I understand that there's going to be another one of these webinars in May and also in July. So stay tuned for those. Again, make sure you click on the resources online. And obviously as we haven't got to necessarily every single question, if we haven't covered up on anything, we will be sure to be looking to respond to those either in person or through the FAQs. Thanks very much everyone for your time and for participating in the webinar. Thanks for persisting with the technology issues that we had with the sound at the start. It's a good place. My name's Rob Carr. I'm with Marston Jacob. I hope that you all stay safe and wish you all the best. Thanks very much.

Thank you so much for the returning subscribers. I appreciate it. Thank you so much. If you're new subscribers, consider subscribing to this channel. For the latest information, you'll not regret. In today's video, one of the subscribers asked me a question and this is actually what I have to respond to. You say, what is the best time to look for a job in Katal? What is the best time to look for a job in Katal? Remember, when you talk about the job searching, when you talk about searching for the jobs, searching for green up, searching for the way library we can improve ourselves, it starts within us. It starts by you getting prepared for that job search. What prepares you is having the documents that will enable you to get that job or having the requirements in case you get that opportunity. I talked about the documents needed for you to apply the job. You can check in the description below to check in that video. But in today's video, we are going to look at what is the best time for you to search for a job in Katal. When we talk about the job searching, remember we have what we call personal searching and we also have what we call the online searching. But the searching of a job or a particular job in any Kafka starts immediately when you think you need to have that job. That's what I have to tell you. It starts immediately when you think it is the right time for you to look for that opportunity or it is the right time for you to start up the opportunity or to compete with other people for the same opportunity. So there is no best time. It is the time right now that you have to start to search for that job. This is what I have to let you know. Yes, keep on passing. This keeps on moving. Time keeps on moving. It will even get back. So remember, the best time to start searching for a job anywhere will be the type when by yourself you are more hungry to get that job. But remember, we are talking about the COVID pandemic era. We are talking about the COVID-19 era. Things have changed completely. They are not like how it used to be. I talked about the best option for you to access it. For example right now in Katal, it is having what you call a work visa. But how do you get that work visa? That is a question that should be answered. And how is it going to be answered? It should be answered between me and you to get the right answer. This is also one of the part of the requirement that you have for your job search at one moment of time. Remember, we are looking at this era of the pandemic, of the COVID-19 pandemic. Where there are a lot of restrictions, where we would not have these reduced working hours given offices according to what situation approves in the given country or what is the situation in that country. But remember, you also need to follow what you call the SOPs. You need to follow the guidelines of the means of the public health. But when we talk about the job searching right now, yes, the opportunities are there, but how do you get that opportunity? We are looking at a scenario now for a person who is not in Katal, a person who is outside Katal. How do you get that access to that opportunity? So that you can also compete with the people who are in the country. Because they have more chances than new people who is out for you. A person is out to access a job and this is exactly what we are talking about. How do I get that opportunity? How do I access that opportunity? That is where our main discussion would go. Remember, we talked about the work visa. And what I can let you know, what I can tell you with the situation that we have now, do not waste your money on a tourist visa in Katal. It's going to be costly for you. And you may not end up, if you are unclear enough, you may not end up getting a job. Why? First of all, for you to have a tourist visa right now. You need to be vaccinated. You need to have vaccinated. Because you will ask for your vaccination cards. Your vaccination certificate will ask for it. And those vaccines must be approved by the Minister of Public Health in Katal. Those are the vaccines that will be accepted. So you coming from your country of origin, you must be vaccinated using the same vaccine that is accepted in Katal. Still, if you are coming on the tourist visa, you will have to look for a bed of insurance for yourself. It's one of the requirements right now. You will also need to have booked a hotel for you, for yourself in case you are coming from exceptional or red list country. For quarantine, which is quite well gone, be very expensive. But that is not our main point of discussion. It is just to show you that you are going through that way. It may not work for you right now in this period that we are in. What is the best option? We are looking at the best option for you to have a job in Katal very fast to have the opportunities around you. One, you need to have what you call a work visa. And how do you get a work visa here in Katal? I'm going to get through the seven steps for you to get a job very fast. One, the only thing, the only time, the only thing to come to Katal right now for a job is you finding a job posting by an employer. Find out that employer has posted a job. It may be online. It may be in the newspaper. You apply. When this employer advertises that job, you'll post what you call your CV. That's why insurance is very important for you to keep updated your CV. You should have your CV with you updated on the time. If you post your CV, your CV will be Christianized through. They will get through your CV. If you are lucky enough for that time and your CV is picked out, this person will give you what you call an interview. What is happening now is interviews are done on Skype or mobile and this is what we are getting through right now. So we are looking at you as a person who has gone through that interview and you passed the interview. So when that employer was advertising the job, gives you an interview and you passed the interview, he chooses you as the best candidate, then he's going to give you what you call a job offer. When he gives you a job offer or when he sends you a job offer, wherever you'll be, that job offer you will count aside or you'll accept the role given to you. You'll accept the conditions given to you. When you accept those conditions for that employer, you'll send back the job offer that I've accepted to work for you. So after receiving that job offer, you sign that job offer, you accept the job offer, then you'll send back the job offer. This employer will gain work for you a work visa. He'll work for you a work visa. He'll send you a work visa plus the ticket with it. So when you get that ticket and the work visa, then you are free to come in, freely without even a hassle because that company, that work visa, that employer of that company that has recruited you will be able to pay up the rest. The quarantine bills, the ticket bills, the work visa bills, all those are going to be paid by the company or the employer. Meaning that you will not have an extra cost of spending in this pandemic era that we are in with a lot of restrictions, with a lot of flight restrictions. Flights are very expensive here and there. So that means you jump out of that hassle at that time as the only best option for you to come right now in Qatar. So when the job offer is accepted, they will formalize all your documentations. They will sign up everything.  Then you will be able to come in freely to the country and set up your new job. Hope I've tried to answer you the question rightly. I would not like to see someone spending a lot of money on the tourist visa. You may not be successful if you need a tourist visa because it will lack a lot of conditionalities. You will have medical insurance for you to prepare medical insurance before you come in, before you even accept it. There are some countries that are not accepted even to come in the red list and the exception red list. So that means you have to incur a lot of costs. So the best option for you to come right now is getting an employer who's going to give you a visa and who's going to give you a work visa who's going to pay for your ticket and who's going to pay for you everything. After that employer has advertised that job. Hope I'm very clear. Thank you so much for coming but don't forget to tune in this channel or tune in to this channel for the latest information.

I know that this might be surprising to some of you, but yesterday was actually the Superbowl. I know, right? Anyways, while that was taking place simultaneously, a real-life meetup between actual supervillains was also happening. And I don't know what they were thinking, perhaps they believed that they would just blend into the crowd and nobody would notice them. But we saw them, and the individuals I am of course referring to are billionaire owner of Twitter, Elon Musk, and Rupert Murdoch. Now for those of you who don't know who Rupert Murdoch is, this is the individual who owns Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, and other far-right media outlets around the world responsible for brainwashing millions and millions of people. And I've got to say that the company that Elon Musk keeps is pretty interesting, we'll use that word, considering he fashions himself as some sort of an outsider populist who's also anti-establishment and oftentimes critical of the media apparatus in the United States. And we'll get to his criticism there. But let me just say, the company you keep says a lot about you as an individual. Need I remind you that at the World Cup, Elon Musk was seen chumming it up with Jared Kushner and Saudis who happened to be the second-largest investors into Twitter. So for all this talk of Elon Musk being somebody who is with the peasants and the everyday American and the worker, I mean by now if you still believe that myth, I've got a bridge to sell you.  Elie Mistal wrote, It's a shame that Lex Luthor had to miss the game with his friends. Nikke Ramirez says, Man truly gravitates to the grossest people at the function. David Lazarus writes, Is there like a justice league for supervillains? Yes, David, you're seeing it now. David Corn of Mother Jones adds, Elon Musk with Rupert Murdoch at the Super Bowl days after Musk tweeted, Some of the smartest people I know actively believe the press. Amazing. Musk is really sincere about media accuracy, right? So much so, he's partying with the man who heads a media disinformation empire. And in response to that tweet, he retweeted Buck Sexton who responded to that saying, So many high IQ people recognize the press as their emotional and cultural enforcers so they become deeply attached to the propaganda machine. Fax be damned. Again, Elon Musk retweeted that. Fax be damned. Apparently principles be damned because just the day later, Elon Musk would be getting buddy buddy with Rupert Murdoch. One of the most, if not the most destructive propagandists in human history. His reach is global. His disinformation is deadly. It actually poses a threat to democracies. And Elon Musk is criticizing how inaccurate the media is while shumming it up with a media mogul like Rupert Murdoch.  Now I'd be remiss and I point out another story that really speaks to the stupidity of Elon Musk that dropped on, I believe, Friday or Thursday. No, it was Thursday actually because we did discuss this on the leftist mafia last week. But Elon Musk is really frustrated with the fact that as the owner of Twitter, his tweets aren't getting more engagement because you think that if you're the God Emperor of Twitter, well, everyone's going to see your tweets. But instead, for some reason, we're all seeing Matt Walsh tweets more than usual, which is deeply troubling considering he is a theocratic fascist. But Elon Musk asked an engineer at a meeting last week why nobody's seeing his tweets and it did not go well and it resulted in the engineer being fired. As platformer reports, for weeks now Elon Musk has been preoccupied with worries about how many people are seeing his tweets. Last week, the Twitter CEO took his Twitter account private for a day to test whether that might boost the size of his audience. The move came after several prominent right-wing accounts that Musk interacts with complained that recent changes to Twitter had reduced their reach. On Tuesday, Musk gathered a group of engineers and advisers into a room at Twitter's headquarters looking for answers. Why are his engagement numbers tanking? This is ridiculous, he said, according to multiple sources with direct knowledge of the meeting. I have more than 100 million followers and I'm only getting tens of thousands of impressions. One of the company's two remaining principal engineers offered a possible explanation for Musk's declining reach. Just under a year after the Tesla CEO made a surprise offer to buy Twitter for $44 billion, public interest in his antics is waning. Employees showed Musk internal data regarding engagement with his account along with the Google Trends chart. Last April, they told him Musk was at peak popularity in search rankings indicated by a score of 100. Today, he's at a score of 9. Engineers had previously investigated whether Musk's reach had somehow been artificially restricted but found no evidence that the algorithm was biased against him. Musk did not take the news well. You're fired, you're fired, Musk told the engineer. Maybe Elon Musk has never heard the saying, don't shoot the messenger. But they told him what he didn't want to hear, so he fired them like a petulant child. And imagine being so deluded that you think that the platform you literally own is biased against you. First of all, imagine caring about your reach on Twitter. Who cares? I just don't understand the people who constantly complain about shadow bands and whatnot.  But like a lot of these conservatives, all they do is shitpost and they reply to Elon Musk saying, hey, nobody's seeing my shitposts, like they don't word it that way. But they pretend as if like they're important, like their sense of self-importance is overly inflated when in actuality. You're not very important and people just don't care about what you have to say. You're corny, nobody wants to see what you have to say, so they're not engaging with you. That's why your reach is lower. But Elon Musk just thinks, well, look, everybody loves me, I have 100 million followers, so of course, it has to be the platform that I own is biased against me, right? It's just absurd. Now, I have to point out this paragraph because this was just so hilarious. Quote, there's times he's just awake late at night and says all sorts of things that don't make sense when employees said, and then he'll come to us and be like, this one person says they can't do this one thing on the platform and then we have to run around chasing some outlier use case for one person. It doesn't make any sense. And this is funny to me because I'm envisioning Elon Musk, like at 3 a.m. shitting on the toilet, seeing a reply from cat turds saying, hey, it still feels like I'm shadow band and I'm not getting as much impressions. And then like Elon Musk barking orders at Twitter employees to investigate cat turds claim.  They still call him out for being shadow band. They don't think, well, maybe it's not necessarily the algorithm. Not to say that the algorithm itself is not problematic, but they just, they have to be perceived as victim. So Elon Musk didn't get the memo there that regardless of how much he tries to boost them and move them up in the algorithm and prioritize their tweets, they have to be perceived as victims because that's part of the conservative ethos. So that will never change. So they're basically incapable of being appeased by Elon Musk and he doesn't get that. But yet he bends over backwards to wake up his own employees at 3 a.m. or whatever in the middle of the night saying, hey, dickhead241 says that they're shadow bands. Still can you look into this? And he thinks that they're gonna see that as a sign of good faith when they don't care, Elon Musk. But like this to me, like I read this article and after the last year or two, I'm not surprised at all. Elon Musk is a petulant child.  You really actually aren't very bright. So either way, Elon Musk is basically a real life super villain. And to see him meet up with Rupert Murdoch, I want people to understand that these people are meeting up and they control a large percentage of global information. And sure it's funny to dunk on them and compare them to Lex Luthor and whatnot. I enjoy those tweets. But understand that this is nefarious and this should worry people. This shouldn't be the case. Like we shouldn't have just a couple of platforms, a couple of moguls, control so much information because we don't know what they're saying behind closed doors or out in the open. We don't know how they're plotting and scheming or trying to boost conservatives or bust up unions. We don't necessarily know what they're saying. So it's troubling. It's, it feels gross. When you're acting like hoes.


So guys, it's me. It's Jacob McDonald welcome back to my YouTube channel and welcome to my vlog that I'm gonna shoot today in a one a One video format. I'm not gonna edit it.  I Just want to tell you exactly what it's been like and It's been up and down That's all I'm gonna say some of you who've been following along at home will know that I've Attempted to quit Substance that I've been it completely and utterly Not not so much physically, but definitely psychologically addicted to for the last 14 years and that's marijuana The last smoke I had was Thursday night two and a half weeks ago today's Monday In fact, it's the first of our first of March. So for anyone else out there in different situations Good or bad just know that We all go through shit and we all have our own individual ways of getting through those things of Putting a smile on your face even when you don't feel like it and Unfortunately, that has been what I've had to do Over the last few days It's not easy. This is not easy. I Was pretty damn positive in the last video that I had on this channel talking about Rockhampton I made a video in the pool. I think At my Airbnb After being here for a week Talking about all the things that I wanted to do talking about The boxing gym talking about the the regular gym talking about the Rockhampton Wolverines football team Talking about skateboarding talking about my kids talking about How good everything was going Everything's still the same But my mindset isn't I'm struggling. I am struggling This is the bedroom that four of us sleep in This is Miffy my ex-partner's Nanna's house. I am so thankful to be living here rent free right now. I Live I moved out of my Airbnb There are hardly any places here in Rockhampton available if I want to stay anywhere It's almost, you know 80 to 90 to $100 a night minimum That means that I'd be spending anywhere upwards of 500 600 700 bucks a week to stay somewhere I Decided on Friday last week to to leave the Airbnb It came to an end after being here for two weeks, and I moved in here To the place that the girls live now I came in here with the best of intentions I came in here in the best of moods But it's not been easy It has not been easy now. I Don't mind sleeping on a single bed. I do not mind We've got three spaces the girls and Miffy sleep there. I Sleep there Life is okay life is good. I'm surrounded by people who are positive. I'm surrounded by people who? Smile genuinely, but unfortunately, I'm not one of those people Or at least not at the moment. So okay, we had four modes of Exercise that I was focusing on in the last video skateboarding gym training boxing gym And football training. I am happy to say That I've done. I'm gonna call it one and a half of those four. I Went to the gym. I joined up. I haven't been yet. I Have not gone to the Rockhampton Wolverines football training yet. I Have taken my skateboard down to the skate park once but I haven't gone to the boxing gym and You know, I'm here to Just just be completely and utterly honest. I'm here to give you guys an update because you have supported me As my YouTube audience my YouTube subscribers throughout the years Over and over and over again, especially when I've needed it the most So I'm here to update you on what's been happening, whether it be good or bad. Okay? I'm struggling. I'm not coping Very well. I'm realizing the situation. I'm in and I'm feeling pretty desperate. I should be living in my own place but due to You know financial Constraints, I'm not able to I Went for a job interview. I thought right I'm gonna give I'm gonna I'm gonna give it my absolute best shot to live here be happy get settled be a dad I mean, I can't even get back into New Zealand at the moment if I wanted to So I went to my first job interview. It was an ideal job. Absolutely ideal a mixture of admin plus a bit of driving and I Walked in there with the best of intentions. In fact, I walked out with with with the best of intentions I basically secured the job I mean on the spot or you got to do guys and that that's what I'll say is that Anyone else out there that that's looking for a job feels feels Like their resumes aren't getting noticed You know they're just being put on the pile top of a massive pile of resumes get go in there You know at least ring the place Introduce yourself go in Ask for the manager shake their hand look them in the eye And you've got a far better chance than a whole lot of other people and that's exactly what I did So I put myself in the best position to get a great job here in Rockampton but I walked out of there and a massive dose of depression hit me Depression and anxiety About being in this this place about possibly taking this job and thinking and looking six months down the track and and and Not being any further Forward mentally Then then I am now Now I'm gonna say that I I say and I tend to live a life with no regrets. I Could start that job. I could work five days a week. I could do 40 45 hours a week But I was completely and utterly underwhelmed I'm in a mindset right now that is not the most positive I'm in a mindset right now that needs Needs a little help. I need to I need to talk to someone that understand I feel like I Feel like nobody nobody around me right now Family friends Anybody understands me. In fact, I felt that way back in Christchurch Nobody understands me but then again Do I even understand me Do I Who am I? What does make me happy? I've spent the last two years of my life through this YouTube channel Spending a lot of money going all different places trying all different things looking for that Happiness that we all want that we all crave And I'm not sure that I found it I Thought being around my kids would be my magic ticket I thought As soon as I saw those smiles on their faces that unconditional love that I've received Holy shit, it's been amazing that has been I'm glad I'm here for that reason But I don't know that I'm gonna be able to live here Full-time. I don't know that I'm gonna be able to stay here and what I'm gonna do right now Let's sit on this swing with these this incredible hill behind us actually Grassy Hill It's it's pretty awesome. If I was a kid back in the day, I'd want to roll Tumble all the way down there. In fact, I don't know why I haven't brought my kids here. In fact, I Don't know why I haven't done a lot of things yet. I'm in a bit of a rut I've been here for Just over two weeks. I've spent nearly every single day with my kids.  I'm not blacking out, but but I am having a few drinks and and The thing that I struggled with with with the weed is not how it made me feel it's not how You know it portrayed me as a person it's it's it's Internal it's it's the fact that I wanted to be in complete control of my mood and my life without having to rely on a substance So I'd hammered it into my brain that I needed to get off of the substance now. I have Realized guys that I am an addict full-on bro.  To be in a good enough at mindset to come over here and and Live a good life and Be sober no no I didn't clearly But I'm not making it that easy on myself to be living with my ex and there is so much shit That's been said back and forth so much so many insults so So much abuse verbally and yes, I do blame some things on her at times, but at the end of the day I'm the one to blame I can't handle life very easily on my own And I'm finding it especially hard being here in Rockhampton with no family no friends Thinking yeah, of course I can I can come here. I can join a sports team meet mates there I can join a gym and meet mates there, but at the end of the day I Don't even want to right now. I don't even want to I don't want to go down to the Rockham Wolverines football training. I don't want to go to the gym. I don't I'm not motivated. I am feeling completely and utterly flat Just flat.  So I'm not sure what the best Way forward is but what I do think is that I I'm gonna do something that I've never ever done before and that is talk to someone I Need to talk to someone and anyone else out there struggling in life if you know, especially as a man as a male Just talk to someone. I can't talk to anybody around me right now. I'm feeling completely and utterly Alone even though I'm not and that's a that's a desperate feeling and and I've even thought Guys some pretty stupid thoughts recently and that's all I'm gonna say on that subject. So what I realized now More so than ever is that I do need to talk to someone. I need to talk to someone that's heard this all before You know what I mean? You've heard it all before give me some good advice I'm not gonna ask you guys to give me advice.
