TikTok Conspiracies Have Ruined Us | Sad Boyz 

POKÉMON GO PEEPS: i put the discord in the description! let's raid! -jarvis

This podcast is like deprogramming therapy for being chronically online

jarvis’ thing abt being afraid to be wrong is so true i double check my own name all the time because i’m afraid of embarrassing myself by literally saying it in front of people

On that very fist thing about the "eating 8 spiders a year in your sleep", it was actually a social experiment by college researchers about how, if you make something SEEM factual and official, it will spread with little to no regard for sourcing the information. Obviously they proved their hypothesis like a million times over lmao

“You offer somebody shelter and they didn’t like the decor” that full on punched me in the face.

That whole thing about not being wrong is so relatable, I once repeated the quote "If thou tastest a crust of bread, thou tastest all the stars and all the heavens" but I couldn't remember who said it so I looked it up and google said Robert Browning. So I looked up what poem he said it in and google said Paracelsus. So I looked up the story and it does not appear in that story at all. I also found that WB Yeats said it and quoted it to Paracelsus, the actual guy not the story. So I looked him up and unfortunately all his work is in German. So I asked one the the foremost English language experts on Paracelsus (you can just email university professors) if he said it and his response was "well it certainly is representative of his worldview, but I do not recall him ever saying that exactly." So my best guess is that WB Yeats said it as a summation of Paracelsus' philosophy and he wrote it in the form of a quote. This shit took me a week and I was just going to text the quote to a friend under a picture of some bread I made.

i was really gullible as a kid and got made fun of for it. so as i got older i overcorrected and always factchecked things before speaking on topics. people started calling me a know-it-all because i always needed to be right. it wasn't because i needed to be right but because i had an overwhelming fear of being wrong. it's gotten better but i definitely don't have a lot of friends because of it and it's still a struggle not to question or push back on things. gotta love that asd/adhd combo ♥

The thing about being wrong hit so hard, I have autism/ADHD and rejection sensitive dysphoria is so bad sometimes that it makes me feel physically sick. It's awesome that more people are talking about it

I know commenting on the way they sit is so old but I love how chill and comfy they get. Jarvis is fully lying down by 1:38:40 lmao

Sarah Z has a great video about how the more left leaning or 'safe' you try to be the more you're criticized for not doing it to the right extent or in the way that everyone deems 'appropriate'

Jordan is dead on with the optics thing. Those kind of people are infuriating because they only get mad at the optics of something and never look at the context or nuance of a situation.

The practice Jarvis is talking about is actually called "body doubling!" It's a great way to increase your productivity by working at the same time with a friend.

I would love a poster or an embroidery that just says "isn't it weird that there are two kinds of berets, and one is for guns and the other is for, like, a mime"

the jubilee thing jordan mentioned was when jordan laughed when a woman started crying at the thought of someone being hispanic and the chat went "oh but youre making fun of a single mother for crying :/" looking back im surprised he laughed it off i wouldve lost my mind

people thinking i dont know something when i just have incredible issues recalling specific words even though im very familiar with them is such a pet peeve of mine. especially at work (college info center) bc patrons will assume i dont know shit but i just have bad at speaking syndrome

I think you guys had a really nuanced and interesting conversation about the concept of safe spaces, it's hard to come to the conclusion that safe spaces aren't going to be perfect. Recognizing that is a really important aspect of advocating or just being a good "ally" (i hate that term sorry lmao). I see people all the time trying to contort themselves into the most all pleasing community and in a very small few of these spaces even resorting to tactics of harassment comparable to harassment campaigns run by the right. No one space is going to perfect, that's why there's a lot more than one. There's always going to be someone you don't get along with, there's always going to be some weird aspect to your community that someone doesn't vibe with. We are humans, there's irrational reasons for every single thing we think, feel, and do. I'm really sorry if this comes off weird or i said something stupid, i just smoked a bowl AND im autistic, i'd love to clarify anything if i worded it stupid lol

Not all medical specialists stay in their lane. My father was a podiatrist and he dealt with the foot and toes once it got into the ankle he was like “not my specialty here are my recommendations for other doctors” but other podiatrist that also don’t specialize in ankles may jump over and give advice. In worst case scenarios I’ve seen specialists running full on like crystal MLM scams in their office. Not to discredit your ENT doctor I just feel like they were speaking outside of their experience.

as someone who's been both running the parasocial relationship gambit and witnessing it from an outside perspective for like ten years, it is really refreshing to see youtubers who both understand the nuances of parasociality and don't manipulate it for platform gain (cough cough dream). I do hope future generations of RU-vid take a page from your book in this regard.

I loooooove the resurgence of Pokémon Go. I loved the beauty of that moment we all had when it first came out. It’s just so nice to get a taste of that same moment in time again. I love hearing various RU-vidrs talk about being back in it. Love it ❤

little tip for anyone else in a house with multiple floors - have a key rack or something on the floor you enter and exit from, that way you're less likely to accidentally leave your keys upstairs and it gives you a spot to check first whenever you think you've lost your keys, this is for sure a very basic thing and im sure most people already do this but like i find it so insanely helpful for something so basic lol

EVERY SINGLE Instagram reels comment section I’ve seen is always filled with “Um actually” or “I can’t believe you…” or “you didn’t mention…” You guys did a great job about talking about the toll of that from a creators perspective. Very therapeutic to hear it dissected and made me feel less crazy for really disliking it. Couldn’t every be a creator myself without losing my mind…props to you guys

I love that the theme so far (I'm about a third in) seems to be "Knowledge and how to share it with respect" I think especially neurodivergent people find that socialising through "oh!! I know this!! Let me tell you about it!!" is very natural. Every neurodivergent person I've ever met has held me hostage to tell me a random fact about the thing I expressed a small interest in. I have held many people hostage to tell THEM the fact about the thing. Neurotypicals can relate in a gossiping way, so if your interests revolve around pop culture or famous people they feel positively about it, but in general, they end up feeling like you're being a Know It All, or a Mansplainer, etc. But I say there's a difference between "sharing my knowledge" and "showing how smart I am". In cases where it's my field, I am absolutely peacocking lmao, but when it's stuff I just Know or Learned etc, I'm just sharing what I know because I know it! I think it's especially this modern day Virtue Signalling issue that really makes it so much worse these days. Like, when I know a company is evil and bad, I avoid it, but my friends typically don't. I'm fighting constantly with not being That Guy although all my talking points are Real and Well Informed. There's so much mess these days with the way the world is. Nobody fixes the real problems, so us little guys fight ourselves with tiny, fake ones.

speaking of fighting for no reason, the other day my friend and I fought for an hour about whether a latte had to be coffee and milk, AND I WAS RIGHT, a latte doesn't have to EXCLUSIVELY be coffee and milk. even when I proved her right she just said "nuh uh" LIKE

dude I loved hearing their conversation about the way progressive folks online are fucking evicorated by their fan base. I always wonder how old those people are, cause I was definitely one of those people when I was in high school. I was slowly dying of an undiagnosed genetic condition, had severe undiagnosed cptsd and moral OCD. in that world of death and neglect I just … lost my mind? like my OCD ritual was literally looking at those ‘ur fave is problematic’ threads FOR HOURS. I did this everyday, multiple times a day, for at least a year. I’m so relieved I never posted anything … because if I had it would have been a violent level of disgusting bullshit. My whole life, parasocial relationships with RU-vidrs and Podcasters felt like the only safe relationships. And this was before parasocial was a common word. My little brain couldn’t tell the difference, didn’t understand how influencers were taking the place of parents and adult role models. Then I started to get really sick, I lost my ability to swallow more than a little food and my chronic pain kept me awake and out of my mind at all times. I barely remember what happened, but there was some random scandal with my favorite podcasters, and it broke me. Like full psychotic break probably… every bit of hatred that should have been directed at the people who neglected and abused me became targeted at online personalities. After that break it felt like I couldn’t trust anyone, and that anything ‘problematic’ was unclean, I couldn’t love it without being the monster my upbringing convinced me I was. It made me the exact stereotype of a hysterical, violently contempt filled sjw. I feel torn seeing those people now, because I wonder if they’re young like I was. Are they dying too? Are they being abused? Is their brain shriveled up from starvation? Are they unable to ever sleep? Are they in mind breaking pain? I think I give them too much credit.. I’m sure lots of these people are saner than I was, and obviously the reasons don’t change the intensity and horribleness of that abuse and bullying. I just always wonder if they’re Kids, lashing out and being stupid because they’re terrified of the one oasis in their world becoming as violent as their real life. Kids are fucking mean, they’re cruel, and they’re especially cruel if they feel like they have a reason (and something seeming yikes is a tempting reason). It’s weird seeing that violent cruelty hitting adults. Anyway … it’s 1:40 where I live and hearing them talk about sparked a lot of thoughts.

the “average person eats 3 spiders a year" factoid actualy just statistical error

The eating spiders thing may be fake, but I had a spider crawl into my ear while I was asleep once. It was just as upsetting as you’re imagining.

You know he's addicted to pokemon go when he tells strangers he'll meet up with them if they're a high level.

It is so healing to hear Jarvis expose the inner world of Pokémon Go….. the community and game ecosystem is so FASCINATING it always was so fun to talk about it with those not in the know

The McElroy situation is so depressing; the really preachy and rude fans ran everyone else out of the fan spaces. I don't like telling people that I'm a big McElroy fan because I don't want to be associated with the community anymore.

Discretely checking to see if what your friend said is true, and growing as a person enough to not tell them they’re wrong, but still check… IS SUCH A MOOD, lmao

within the first 60 seconds of the pod I did not expect Jordan's "when I am inevitably killed..." 💀

Totally feeling Jarvis's story about getting a second medical opinion... I fractured my fifth metatarsal in early July and I saw two doctors who told me I didn't need surgery. Reached out to a family friend who is a foot specialist and he was like "Yeah you need surgery ASAP"... I understand the doctors I saw before him weren't specialists, but it's scary to think that I could have just taken their word for it and potentially have never gotten surgery that I needed.

Jordan is so right about the vitriol in the fan community of the McElroys. I had to leave fan groups on Facebook because of so much of the hate and Discourse™. And then there's the general Travis hate that seems to be rife in the community, which just borders on ableism a good chunk of the time. Also I nearly left a comment last week saying "the thing Jarvis is talking about is body doubling" and I'm so glad now that I didn't 😅

Creating safe spaces is indeed an ongoing learning process, especially as communities diversify. Parasocial relationships are another nuanced area; content creators must manage expectations while still fostering a sense of community. Self-censorship is particularly challenging in live streaming where a single comment can have lasting repercussions.

Holy shit, I was JUST saying that same thing about (some of) the McElroy brothers fans! I love their stuff and have been a fan for years, but I feel like I see "fans" of theirs online who just straight up sound like they don't like them and what they do...

at risk of sounding like the same thing jarvis is describing, sometimes comments are not even left for the creator of the video, and just left to give other viewers more information.

there seems to be an expectation that to like or support somebody with a platform you have to agree with absolutely everything they do, and that is really tied in with the concept of safe spaces, but like jarvis and jordan talked about, there isnt a way to make a space where everyone feels completely good and great all the time. people are complex and will say and do things you dont agree with. there are of course degrees to which each person may find things acceptable and not, but im not talking about anything extreme. surrounding yourself with only people who agree with you in every way is how you enter an echo chamber where you lose access to new ideas and knowledge that will help you grow. i get wanting to feel a certain sense of comfort from the content you consume, but especially with regard to Internet personalities, there are regular people behind the stuff you like watching. nobody is a perfect beacon of goodness, wholesomeness, morality or what have you. and it feels like something a lot of folks arent willing to acknowledge or grapple with. theres no requirements to being an Internet creator. at the end of the day thats just some guy you dont know fully, and its a big ask that is unreasonable to expect somebody to do and say everything you think they have to.

love the guest episodes but there’s something magical about a da boyz episode hahaha

i’m glad you got answers about your sleep apnea jarvis! having a discussion with the people who actually did the study was definitely the right call.

9:15 I cannot explain how much I relate to this and how nice it is to experience that. Every episode is such a cozy neurospicy-coded chats. I’ve been really struggling with being isolated due to disability and I don’t have many people in my life I can look up to, learn from or relate to. I really appreciate hearing the thoughtful and genuine conversations you guys have. It’s very insightful.

1:42:23 love when jordan spontaneously changes accents "birthday🇬🇧 parties🇺🇸" lol

It's ironic that the Sad Boyz always make me Happy when they post 😊

Somehow, Jordan being unceremoniously removed and Jarvis having a 144p AI version of him on deck is big "Woody waving a dismembered Buzz Lightyear arm around to be accepted back into society" energy

first time i’m hearing we don’t eat spiders in our sleep. as someone with arachnophobia this is relieving as hell but also now i feel stupid for believing it

Genuinely did a double take when BDG suddenly got edited in saying hello. Excellent joke on the editor's part XDDD

I'm a trans woman and it's so fucking relieving and encouraging to hear just normal guys, regular human people, being understanding and nuanced about trans people

36:30 also the really sad thing is, when you give people a safe space they start to gain confidence with you as if you're closer friends, as Jarvis says, how it's a parasocial thing typically. But then suddenly they feel more comfortable to call you out over a mistake, because they know you'll apologize or feel bad. They won't ever talk back to their own bullies IRL because they can't mistreat someone who intimidates them, and because you don't want to intimidate your audience, they actually feel safe to mistreat you because they're letting all of their malice at the RL bullies who are too scary to fight, come out on you because you don't want to fight or be mean. While it's a good thing for super anxious people in marginalized grouos, to be in a safe place and gain confidence, they need to also be taught boundaries. Even people who are marginalized will marginalize others who they should be allies with, if they get that taste of confidence and power. It's a delicate balance and so even people who know what it's like to be yelled at, will start yelling at you when they sense that you won't yell back like their dad, and mom, and teacher, and bullies and friends, and everyone they want to yell at, but are afraid of. And so because they see you as a safe friend, sadly, they take it all out on you instead of realizing that you're one of the only people who would validate and respect them if not for some mistake you made that offended them. My family misgenders me sometimes or says the wrong name, but I know they respect me and it's only because they're having trouble breaking a very long habit, so I don't get annoyed every time, because it's so much more important to have them as allies than to nit-pick at their Freudian slips and accuse them of demeaning me when they've been trying so hard to respect my wishes. This is called picking your battles, realizing something isn't worth arguing, especially whe you know the person you're arguing with knows what's right and they just slipped or they didn't think of it the way you think they did, so you're just telling them what they know and nagging, like an angry toxic parent yelling at their kid for not making the bed ("are you stupid? Are your arms broken? You can't make your bed when I tell you to?" You're just being demeaning to get someone to jump through your hoops). We need to stop haranguing allies for every mistake because we're afraid to go yell at the actual transphobes and homophobes and racists, and allies don't want to fight with us so it's less scary for our social anxiety that magically goes away when we're yelling at people who won't yell back (you know who you are). It's pathetic, sucker punching someone who isn't fighting you in the first place. Like you can point out a mistake politely if you actually think they don't know, but you know damn well they aren't the kind of person to purposely disrespect people so why freak out and harass them? Because you're taking out ehat OTHER people did to you, on the person whonis easier for you to feel comfortable yelling at. It's not fair.

I don’t have any social media so Sad Boyz is my go to podcast to catch up on shit that’s going on in the internet world lmao

The thing I find difficult is the balance between ‘people are annoying and you can be annoyed with them without it meaning anything more than surface level’ and ‘this feels mean’ LOL like having auDHD I get really frustrated w ppl p easily but also growing up w that idea that if you say anything negative about someone but don’t say it to their face you’re disingenuous or like you’re not allowed to complain about issues that other ppl wish they’d have kinda thing it’s so annoying Like I’m sure people I like have gotten really annoyed w me and that doesn’t feel good on the RSD vibes but also like. I’m annoying they’re annoying we’re all annoying let’s just accept that LMAO

Jarvis' curls look great!

Your thing about being afraid of being wrong....felt. Once i signed a serious professional email about work permits to my future boss GEB instead of Gen, and my friends still call me Gebediah. It's been six years. I still triple read every email i send.

Jarvis’ hair looks amazing. Almost as good as the green socks Jordan has on

I would have known that dinosaurs can pee. I grew up near a mall that used to have a McDonald's in it, and for no ostensible reason the McDonalds had a giant dinosaur statue. You could sit under it there was one table under the dino. And if you looked up, you could see his lizard flap and peen... again for no ostensible reason.

My friend and I walked 16 miles in one day at the beginning of Pokémon go and then we never played it again - was great while it lasted 😂

As someone who has never stopped playing Pokemon Go, it's actually adorable and hilarious what Jarvis is so enamored by these days

for whatever fucking reason as a kid i didnt believe in santa or the tooth fairy but i FULLY believed in the easter bunny. I have no idea why. the day my mom broke the news to me that santa wasnt real i remember saying "I KNEW IT!! AND NEITHER IS THE TOOTH FAIRY" and my mom said "nope... and neither is the easter bunny" and i remember my stomach dropping and going "WHAT?!" and bursting into tears. i mustve been 11.

I never thought I'd find another soul brave enough to tell the truth: Pikachu is a triflin, dirty, silly-ass rat and needs to be Dealt With. Thank you for your service, Jordan.

I like Jordan's "accidental car crash" metaphor for the commenters explaining body doubling to Jarvis 😂

Yikes Jordan! You're friends with Jarvis. Have you not seen his video on Spending a Week With Everyone In The Metaverse?

As a member of a marginalized community, what you all discussed around 34:06 really made me think about the types of content I engage with and why, and I wanted to present the point that while you as creators cannot guarantee a 100% safe space (in comment sections, chats, etc) because you can’t control what other people do and you can’t fully know what may make someone feel unsafe or uncomfortable, I personally find a lot of comfort and merit in the fact that I know you as individuals support me in my minority status and I would never feel unsafe around either of you. I don’t speak for everyone of course but my personal experiences with your content do make me feel safe and seen because of how you have expressed your support of my community and that knowledge in itself has created a safe space for me to turn on a video and feel comfortable that I’m going to be presented with content and ideas that align with my feeling of safety

You guys are like the weird friends I had growing up

The lil “We Didn’t Start The Fire” parody cracked me up because my 9th grade history teacher made the whole class write parodies with current world events or trends and perform them in front of the class. It was so bad

Can relate to looking random stuff up just to learn so much. Can't help searching info about anything that seems interesting; even with languages, if I suddenly can't remember a word from one of the languages I've been learning, I'm not gonna look just that one word up, I'll also search for synonyms and synonyms of synonyms 🙃🙃

Jarvis should really check out the book "Breath" By James Nestor, he talks about breath work and documents a scientific study him and someone else undergoes where they plug up their nose to document the effects of mouth breathing, they're really bad, a key difference is that your nose pressurizes, warms and moistens the air for your lungs and we have paranasal glands in the back of our noses that produce nitric oxide a vasodilator. I hope Jarvis feels better

I've had surgery for deviated septum. The recovery (when they put a splint in your nose) absolutely sucks 👍 good luck!

It's nice hearing Jarvis' experience getting back into pokemon go. I got my mom into the game back in 2016, and have been playing consistently since. I imagine I'd have stopped at some point if it wasn't for her playing as well, but having the game in common and getting a bit competitive about getting levels and shinies is still so much fun!

Re @10:00, I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and part of the diagnosis had me going back through old report cards from elementary school. The most common comment I got from teachers was "she clearly knows the answer, but never raises her hand". Also did dinosaurs pee? My guess is it's like birds/reptiles where it's more like a pee-poo. And yes I did Google this to make sure my guess was right before posting.

my partner recently got dx’d with sleep apnea and have a c-pap machine now - they’re very quiet and minimal now compared to like 15 years ago, and it has improved their sleep and overall energy levels a lot

Hi Jarvis, I doubt you’ll read this but I wanted to share my experience. I just had my deviated septum “fixed” on August 10th. By my birthday (the 19th) I was still feeling so bad I cancelled all my plans and took another week off work. On the 25th I had a nosebleed so bad I went back to the hospital and had my nose cauterised. I saw the ENT again on the 30th who said my septum is trying to push itself back into its original position, making it impossible to breathe through my right aside and basically making the surgery a waste of time and money. It’s apparently very rare so I’m just very unlucky and will need to have corrective surgery which will cost me ~$1450 out of pocket on top of the ~$4000 I already paid. I really hope yours goes much smoother and you’re able to podcast. The nasal flushes are the worst and take some getting used to. Best of luck!

Jordan, you deserve a goddamn hug at the very least. WAY more credit / respect / appreciation imo, that's just me though☀

I have 2 hours left of work before a holiday weekend. THANK YOU SADBOYZ

"I wanna blend him with my AK" i see Jordan is adjusting to the American lifestyle

One thing a lot of people don't get anymore is that people can change, The modern internet has been around for quite a while now and someone will drag out a tweet or video from like 10+ years ago and be like "Hey look at how shitty this person is." and its like, They literally aren't even that person anymore, even if they hold the same values, so much time has passed that too much of anyone changes by that point to even consider it a valid viewpoint to look at who they are now. I'm not saying completely disregard anything anyone has ever done in the past, but grabbing some random tweet/video/comment whatever from the past and shoving it around like its the sole core of who that person is, is just foolish. Beyond foolish really.

My last ex said he loved that I would whip my phone out to look things up all the time and I think it’s one of the best compliments I’ve ever gotten.

for jarvis: use qtips to gently clean around ur incision/ pick boogers out of ur nose and put vaseline on it to keep it moist :) i had my sinuses and septum fixed at the same time and doing those things (as told by my ENT) really helped my recovery go smoothly

Haven't seen just the boys in a while, this is so wholesome

Was hanging out with some friends, watching Coraline. This movie was my jam when it first came out, so at some point I mention how it was directed by the same person who directed Nightmare Before Christmas, Henry Selick. Friend said they thought so too, but he only produced it they said. I went with it because I can be wrong and it didn't seem super important to correct. But I HAD to know. I check out wikipedia, and sure enough, it's Henry Selick. I was pleased with myself, but damn if I'm sharing that with friends after that.

Second comment time on the subject of safe spaces, I’m going to briefly echo a lot of the other comments I agree w that often safe spaces aren’t actually all that safe from the level of like monitoring and pressure you feel in them, and that people put far too much reliance on other people on the internet to create spaces for them instead of trying to engage in building spaces for themselves and working within communities they have access to in person What I will say tho is that while I can be disappointed in creators I enjoy that feel ‘safe’ to me at times w things they say or do, I can also understand that that doesn’t make them ‘unsafe’ which I think is a problem a lot of ppl online have where being less than perfect suddenly equals bad. I think it’s more important to me to have people I like and respect online have those moments where I disagree w them but ultimately understand that this person would still stick up for/affirm me vibe, it doesn’t have to be so black and white where ppl must be infallible or they’re unworthy and I think ppl can be lured into a false sense of security around those who haven’t like outright said the things that would make them ‘unsafe’ bc they know to maintain their image Basically I’d rather people be human than ‘safe’

The brief discussion of deadnaming in reference to Kanye was refreshingly concise. I observe so many people being willfully ignorant on the topic and this reminded me that thankfully there are folks who not only want to understand but also put in the work to do so.🤗

I love how the Boyz believe that vtuber fans don't know they are watching normal ass streamers but with an animated avatar 😂

I want to touch on the Pokémon Go: I went to my first event at Go Fest, I was just going out on a walk with my girlfriend and we kind of stumbled into a large crowd of people at the park and got a couple Raquazas. It’s cool how open everything was and how many people still play and play together.

Moment of appreciation! I always have work on Saturdays and listening to this podcast has become a staple of my Saturday morning routine. Thanks Jarvis and Jordan!

That's one thing that's kept me playing Pokemon Go through thick and thin is how wildly diverse and active the player base is. I love the fact that for a lot of cities and towns the Pokemon Go grannies are the leaders of those communities and the most hardcore but at the same time their only exposure to Pokemon is through Go, it's always a good chuckle to hear how they pronounce the names of pokemon because of this.

46:19 I work at my college’s front desk and during a single orientation, the man who was helping people find their classes went So Hard that he ended up with like 50,000 steps. I didn’t have much context for that number until you talked about it, so he seems extra cool to me now lol. Guy is like in his 60s, maybe 70s, and he’s just truckin’

Dinosaurs don't pee or poop technically, they'd be like lizards or birds with cloacas. They only go Number 3

Love the new hair, Jarvis! Shaved sides looks so good with curly hair.

i recently found this podcast and something about the connection you guys have is so healing. i’ve been struggling to go out and see my friends due to MDD & anxiety and stuff, but when i’m struggling I can put this on and feel like i’m in a convo with people i’m comfortable with, it’s really nice.

"deadnaming kanye" words have meaning and cultural significance

In Boston, on some streets they’ve actually put in physical barriers between the bike line and road so the cars literally cannot drive in it.

dude i absolutely LOVE pokemon go im so so excited to hear other people talk about still playing it. it's one of my favourite games!! and also, like, it's free so weirdly it's one of the most easily-accessible pokemon games? all you need is your phone and as much as they encourage you make microtransations, it's still free to play and i do really really appreciate that for it

18:32 3 kinds of berets: Ladies, Mimes, and Military

The guests are nice, but I love when it's just the Boyz clownin'

jarvis's giant pokemon plush just looking on in somber judgment from the shelf as jordan describes his undying hatred of pikachu

In my experience I would not trust an ENT to do non ENT things either lol. My ENT made me do an allergy test with them and when I later brought the results to an allergist she was like "yeah they did the test completely wrong" 💀

Jarvis' stories about finding community through Pokemon Go are so cute

Lol needing a dopamine hit to build good habits is so relatable. Somehow the promise of new cute Pokémon are the rewards that really gets my brain going. I have never had better sleep habits than since I started playing Pokémon sleep. The promise of new Pokémon waiting for me in the morning, and knowing I'll be rated at the end of the week for how stable my sleep pattern has been has just completely killed my midnight doom scrolling habit haha.

Wow! I am in shock! I never ever thought that the urban legend about spiders might have come from Norway! We hardly have any spiders!!

as a trans person, seeing people refer to not calling kanye by ye as deadnaming is pretty insulting. it comes from a good place often, but it makes light of what deadnaming actually is. deadnaming is a purposeful and hostile insult and refusal to respect someone for who they are. it's used to mock and belittle, to be cruel and even to out people and put them in harm's way. it aint the same as a cis man changing his stage name for the millionth time to try to distract from his nazi arc

you guys should have Kennie jd back on some time

Thank you Jarvis for providing the boogie to Jordan's "it's electric" 😂😂😂 literally I was outloud saying the same thing when you started
