Minds Behind Maps
Find the Problems, You Know?
Inflationary environment, he was doing this in the 80s and 90s or whatever with 25% interest rates. He didn't have a 3D printer. Christ knows how he made it. And if he can do that, you know, I think we can all do stuff. It's not a hard problem to find problems. We've got problems all the time. Most of them are very solvable, very easily solvable.

Episode notes
Speaker 1
That's the thing
Speaker 2
like there are also and then it's not even them trying to, I don't know even how to explain this. But it's just so the whole sentiment behind why this bill was even created in the first place. I don't think there's a rational reasoning behind it. You know,
Speaker 1
I'm not as brave as these folks. You know, I have to say that like a lot of people think I'm brave for living in China. I feel the exact opposite. I live in China because I am not brave. I experienced a lot of violence and criminality in the United States. And it was scary. Sadly. And so I can't sometimes be in certain situations where I felt threatened and things and certain times of the night and stuff. And I moved to China and that fear is gone. I don't think about it. So I'm actually here because I am a total chicken. So when I this wonderful living in China, I could walk around, I was walking around this morning at like 4am outside. I went to the gym. It wasn't spy stuff. So I, you know, I like to go to the gym because I'm fat. I go when no one's there. So no one's like, look at that fact I working out. But no, what my point is, yeah, my point is that I'm here in China because I feel safe. And these and people who are currently living in Texas in other places in the United States where anti Asian violence is skyrocketing, they are feeling
Speaker 2
less safe.
Speaker 1
So I actually absolutely I feel for them because if I was a foreigner like I am here in China, and I felt unsafe because I am a foreigner because they were having foreigners because foreigners were being hit in the back of the head with the brick while they're walking down the street, I certainly would reconsider whether I wanted to live here. And so I feel very bad for the people in the United States who came on Goodwill because they heard good things about what life is like in America. And you know, like a lot of things in America are pretty cool.
