So

they were going to Beverly Hills, they were going to Venice and Hanukkah.

Goodbye.

You don't want to be over there anyways.

And that left some properties open.

So the black elites were like, hey, we come in, we do what we do.

They did that.

And

Yeah

... can I just say that I really loved the end of this book? Like, where essentially she says, like, "The freedom that you gave me felt like you didn't care." Like, it didn't feel like ...

Like, I know that you love me, I know that you care, you were trying to let me be the whole-est version of myself and the version of myself that felt, felt the most natural, but your lack of anchoring me felt like you didn't give a fuck about me.

There's also a version where, like, again, this is just some other person.

Right.

Right.

Hmm, I really do, I really do think it's her.

I, I like that maybe this happens right after she kills Brooke and goes home and sees Woody.

Young.

I thought it was too boy.

I thought it was, you know, lame overall.

And I watched it again for the first time as an adult just maybe two weeks ago and it was fantastic.

Okay

... with Deep Blue Sea.

I go to Tubi, I turn it on.

I must say I absolutely hated it.

[laughs]

Because that was ass.

Malcolm & Marie was hot ass.

I'm like, oh, okay, so Zendaya and Sam are frequent collaborators.

They're besties or something? Like, I don't know what's going on, but Zendaya, you gotta get up out of there.

You're better than that.

And they're making more money

... for, for two people, and I'll leave FreshandFit alone after this.

Uh.

I click into it and it's like, "Yeah, don't come into work today," or, "You don't need to come in anymore at all, all of you.

Um, we're canceling.

We're canceling it." It's like, oh, great.

Literally, maybe like two weeks before that I had found out that my long-term job was also coming to a close.

They were getting rid of all contractors.

I had been on a contract for five years.

Yeah

[laughs]

I really liked Parano- Paramore, and I remember being on the school bus.

I played basketball.

I am 5'2", but I did play basketball in middle school because that was the only time when I was tall enough to do it.

And my coach, my white coach, was like, "What are you listening to?" And my iPod, and I was like, "I'm listening to this Paramore song." He was like, "Ugh, you're so white." And I was like, "What? You're so white." This white man gonna tell me I'm so white 'cause I'm listening to Paramore.

I did not appreciate it, even as a child.

And so I don't know, it just became, like, part of my kind of rebellious identity where I'm like, "Yeah, I am gonna listen to Paramore.

I don't know Oliv- I don't know any Olivia Rodrigo.

If it does not come back, I'm really annoyed.

I know.

I'll be annoyed too 'cause she, at that point, she needs a spin-off.

Like, she needs a spin-off.

Tell me what happened to her because y'all sold her into sex work.

I know you did.

[laughs] Or at least organ farming.

Mm-hmm

[laughs]

Like, I just... [laughs] And he won't have those mo- Sam won't have those moments.

He'll just have, like, an orchestra in the background.

Wack.

Black People Love Paramore, the podcast, and you had all these famous people on there, were there anyone from high school was like, "Oh my God"? [laughs]

I don't think anybody tried to hang out.

I will also say I am n- notoriously resting bitch face, unfriendly, and intimidating allegedly, so I hear.

So nobody tried to hang out-
