[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's just all that's going on and I'm gonna bring my white in here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I kinda come in a little deeper because when I come back with the orange I'm gonna be able to make this really great fur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kind of effect and so I might paint in a little deeper than I envision.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My orange coming out. I'm curving in and you'll notice that there's directionality in my brush stroke where I kind of curve in the direction of the hair. Whether you're painting very serious, realistic paintings or painting kind of fun, cute,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Heart art like this, directionality of the brush is always important in fur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's even kind of okay with a little bit of gray underneath because see that's a little bit like fur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the nose is white. I'm gonna paint all this white up here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cute little noses. And I just like this brush because it gives me nice control. And I enjoy it. That's all it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everywhere in the directionality of the brush strokes are important because it creates the shape or flow of the puppy's fur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I always think about the way the fur grows and try to do my brush in that direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am flicking at the brush to kind of create little fluffy hairs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'll go ahead and paint into the butt, even though I know my butt's gonna layer over the top here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With a little bit of cute, upward little hair. Even though I know that's coming. I do this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna take a minute, really rinse out my brush at this stage too. And if I need any, if I want to remove any of my chalk, I can do that now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the reasons I always use light chalk guys is so that it's easy to remove. Cause the darker stuff can be a little more challenging.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, when we come back, I'm gonna show you how to add the orange and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we're gonna do the first layer of the kind of gold blonde fur and I'm gonna bring a little red out and a lot of yellow. And I'm gonna make a yellow orange.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This will be a little bit darker than the top fur color that we're going to put on and I want to make enough to be able to paint in all of the spots on the corgi that are this color.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I realize I gotta paint those little white paws too, I just forgot that in that first one. But let's look at how we're gonna do the tail. So I'm gonna take the tail and I'm gonna come in on the angle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna make a little curving stroke so on the left side they kind of curve to the left and on the right they kind of curve to the right. Yeah. And you'll see that kind of gives me an uneven


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that kind of implies some hair to there, which I rather like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, if you can't get coverage over the gray with your yellow and orange, you may need to add a little white to it, or you may need to repaint the entire corgi white.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some of the yellow that's out there in, uh, beginner sets or complete sets is so transparent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then it makes this, uhm, pretty challenging. I'm using


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An economy paint. This is actually a very economical paint. Um, primary yellow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By Abstracts and LEA, and it has the right amount of, I think, the minimum amount of pigment that you gotta have for students. But, you know, in the art world,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just by honor how much the paint companies give you. When I come here to the outside edge, I'm going to let it kind of be a little fluffy. We'll see it more when I come back with my black fur lining.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And apply that now. On this part of the bum, so we come here and we've got it kind of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Going over, but then as it goes over the top, I'm gonna change the direction of the little cowlick. And we're gonna have a little bit of fur. See how it went up?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're a corgi owner, you gotta tell us about your corgi in the comments below.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're actually, if you are a Sherpa owner, you're doing the big art quest for dogs and you're doing this, you tell us about your fur baby at home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now while I'm here, I'll go ahead and take the moment to, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Catch, I'll use my round to catch the pause that I missed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just because I want two layers of white.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And two layers of the gold color, so that will help me. Perfect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We do want this thoroughly dry before we come back and put on the next layers. Don't forget to do that part. When we come back, we're gonna hit the next layer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we're gonna come back and add just that second layer to the fur to give the painting sort of a finished and dimensional look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna make sure my brush is a little more rinsed out than it currently is. Sometimes you get paint kind of hiding in there. Hiding in the brush!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like it, like it wants to do. To hide in the brush.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I do want to kind of get a second layer as you can see on the white fur. Look at how much whiter that is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I find that sometimes in your painting a couple layers is the difference between being happy and being frustrated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, you guys shouldn't have to be doing four layers. That's an issue with the paint. It could be an issue with how much water you're putting in the paint, like you're overthinning it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or it could be that your paint is so under pigmented it isn't gonna work for you and you need to under paint everything white and then go shopping.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They do, but you've just gotta, what you gotta think of it is that you need to give feedback as a consumer. Good and negative, you have to give that feedback. I know I get it online. I get that feedback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you know, I'm like, I am. You're keeping up with me. Good on you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, this is good. Now I've got the white. I'm gonna rinse out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna come back and do a second layer on the gold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This layer down is gonna be a little less orange and a little more gold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm going to add a lot more yellow to my orange mix, so it's very yellow orange. And I'm even going to come and add some white to increase its opacity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then I'm gonna come all the places where I have put my fur and I'm gonna kind of dry brush.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why it's important, you know, to let those layers be dry between so you can't dry brush on a wet layer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It does. It adds a lot of dimensionality and color and personality. Which your fur baby probably has tons of. At home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can kinda see I'm pulling in little pull back strokes to kind of exaggerate the fur here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'll come through this and directionality still applies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that directionality does give a lot of personality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you have an easier time with your round brush or your bright in any of these steps,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm using a brush that gives you difficulty. Switch brush. Go to what's easier for you. Don't struggle through just because I'm painting it one particular way. Dry again! And we'll go on to the next layer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm gonna add some pink now to the canvas. I'm gonna come into the tongue and the ear and a couple of the hearts. I'm gonna use my round brush because I get a nice amount of control. I'm gonna get my red and my white.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm taking my white to my red because I'm looking for a darker pink than a lighter pink.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm rolling my brush to pull the pigment out and I'm gonna come very carefully inside the ear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm getting very good coverage here, which means when I come back with my black lining, everything will pull together very easily.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's what you gotta check. Are you gonna have to do two coats?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or, uh, one coat for this. And I meant one coat, but if you're two coats, that's okay. I'm gonna do this heart pink.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I picked several colors of heart, so I thought that was super cheerful. You could do this again in whatever custom colors you wanted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a place to customize the painting for yourself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or the meaning of the painting. And stuff like this is always great to know that you can customize things and, you know, make them more your own.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, and then you can even come back with like second coats on your tongue cause it takes a lot and it starts to dry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's another thing too is seeing that, you know, if your painting takes a minute, and you want to do a second coat,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's another way to do it because it's maybe drawing is your painting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am thoroughly gonna dry before I do my next layer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then I like to add some white to it, so it's kind of a ducky color. A little bit brighter. I'll make up enough to do a few hearts here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, perhaps, you know, layer pending.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe do one kind of here in the background. You change it up any way you want. It's always okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, exactly. That's why we did that in the first place. It's just to make sure that our colors were vibrant and we were enjoying deeply, deeply, deeply.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will have to dry before I put the blue hearts on, but I can in this layer make my brown and paint in my bones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm gonna take my red and my yellow and I'm gonna make a nice orange. That's a nice orange, isn't it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now from here, there's two ways I could get to brown. I could try to get into blue and I could get there, or I can kind of shortcut and go into my black. Right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it actually is, and I think it's one of the first things to realize that as a new painter that you have a lot of agency over your colors if you understand some basic small color mixing


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Information, which is why I do recommend how to mix primary colors, the video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just because it gets you started with the basics of what you really have to know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, I'm happy with my coverage, but if you weren't, you know, you could come back more and more and more times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And maybe we will. Just to demonstrate that truth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perhaps we shall. Another under color that you could have done is black but only if the paint's pigmented enough to take it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which this particular paint I think might, well this one could, but yours at home might not be able to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, paints all have temperaments and your paints temperament may not be like, oh, I'm ready for it. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, we're gonna go on and to get there we're gonna have to dry. We'll come back and we'll do blue and maybe another layer of brown.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we're gonna do another layer of brown and then we're gonna be done. Now since we've got our brown kind of already out. Right, if you've got a nice amount of brown already sort of mixed up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you didn't want to mix brown, a lot of people buy burnt umber or burnt sienna. I prefer burnt sienna.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I'm only gonna use one brown, like if I'm on a budget where it's only one brown that I would buy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would say get burnt sienna, but I like to have, uh, salmon browns actually.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you can. It's fun. I like to have many colors, even though I can mix many colors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rinsing out thoroughly, and guess what? Blue hearts! Now I am gonna add a small amount of white.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To my blue, and that's just to increase coverage and also to brighten just the hair. Just a shade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You probably have figured this out, but just in case you guys haven't, you're kind of learning about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Object placement and how layering pushes objects in front of or behind others.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we layer the hearts, it gives that impression that one heart is in front of another heart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a concept that while simple now becomes more complex as we go deeper into art and more important to what experiences that we're having. Right. So by putting this in front here, it becomes in front of the yellow heart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I were trying to put trees in a forest, being able to layer these trees in relationship to each other to create depth and distance. This is that basic concept that we are playing with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're literally down to the part that just pulls this whole piece together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And all of a sudden you'll be like, is that cutest corgi? So come back, make sure you got a good round brush and I'm gonna show you how contour lining this pulls this image all together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is something called contour lining. It's gonna pull everything together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, hopefully you notice it in this step, but I'm gonna say it again. To do this, make sure that everything is really dry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That way your lining is as effective as it can be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna come in and I'm gonna pull a little black out here and I'm gonna thin it with just a small amount of water. So that it's gonna flow off my brush nicely. Now if you had craft paint you might not need to thin at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, if you had paint that was in the little bottles, but I have these in the pouch and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] David's been sitting it out, maybe it's drying, and so sometimes you need to modify your paint with water.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna come here to the top of the ear and I'm going to bring a little line down. Kind of lining in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coming on the back of the ear and curving in. That develops the, the back of the ear. Flick out, left flick out and in a couple of times. Well, that's nice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now while I'm here, I'm gonna make a nice eye, and it's just a round button.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is just one of them, you can make this eye big, you can make the eye small.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Realistic, but this was just went well with the painting that we were doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes I have to get a little more water on my brush and a little more paint and I just pay attention to that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Little curving strokes. That's why sometimes those curving strokes are so important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we're doing this little tail. The way that it curves to the right or curves to the left really determines if that tail is pointed down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't mind that these lines are kind of open and delicate because that kind of looks like fur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not a continual line. I allow the line to be broken.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you guys can think of the exact same things in your art too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now here on the, uhm, puppy feet we've got to do beans and pads.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna do another little round bit on the back side over here. Same size.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna rinse out super thoroughly. So there's no black in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna come into my white and I'm gonna thin a little bit of white with some water, but I want it to still be pretty opaque.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not like a wash, it's just easy to work with in detail.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the comical little bit of what you can do there. And then when you're all done, if you're happy with your puppy, you sign.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like to use, um, colors and effects that are in the paintings that my signature doesn't stand out too much. Like I want it to be legible, but I don't want it to be


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Overpowering to the whole piece. Oh, you know what? Before I go, I think the nose just needs a little more line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes you get it, you look at it and you're like, wait, what? You're like, little more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my gosh guys, when we come back I'm gonna tell you what's next because there's some big stuff that's next for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was amazing and I so appreciated doing this painting with you today. If I didn't get your question today or you're watching in replay, you can always leave those questions down in the comments below. Tell me about your fur baby in your life. I actually read my comments and it's interesting to me to see who your studio companions are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, if you're part of the beginner acrylic painting course, guys, this Saturday coming up, or whenever you're watching, you would go to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The after party certificate celebration where you did it. It's the I did it party.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'll tell you how you can become a certified one who paint her. And get a certificate for free.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, uh, hopefully you'll join us for that. There is a Q&A after show on this particular one, but it's going to be our last one in this series. And after this, we're going to be coming up on the 12 days of Christmas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just before the 1850s, the United States had a number of small colleges, most of them dating from colonial days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] was concerned primarily with creating and spreading knowledge, not morals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Between mid-century and the end of the 1800s.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More than 9,000 young Americans dissatisfied with their training at home went to Germany for an advanced study.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some of them return to become presidents of venerable colleges. Harvard, Yale, Columbia, and transform them into modern universities.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The new presidents broke all ties with the churches and brought in a new kind of faculty. Professors were hired for their knowledge of a subject.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Drilling and memorizing were replaced by the German method of lecturing in which the professor's own research was presented in class. With the establishment of the seminar system,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The President of Harvard pioneered the selective system by which students were able to choose their own course of study. The notion of major fields of study emerged.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Such a dream. Oh my god. Such a dream. Every time I go anywhere. Hands down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I might be safe if I go to Trader Joe's. But everywhere else is kind of...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like, not a ton, it's kind of like, maybe like, once a week? Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm really not about to fucking pity myself for people recognizing who I am, which is, cause it's like I'm really grateful for it. But, I don't know, I would like to go to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, anywhere and not be always recognized. Whoa.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't live up to that then, and I still haven't lived up to that. So, it's good advice though. It is a waste of time, dude. Ugh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's ruined so many things that could have been amazing because I was sad. Dumb. But, whatever.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeah, my chains were a gift. I did not buy anything that I'm wearing. At all. None of it. I bought this though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the kind of pressure that's like, it hits me and then I don't care. Everybody dropped dead right now, and I didn't. I would be left with what I had created for myself. And what the hell would the point be if


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then that person died, and everybody else died, and nobody mattered except me. I'm stuck with this shit I didn't want in the first place. That's trash.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I'm handling the pressure horribly, but I just keep it to myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All the time. Except my wall. I write everything I feel on my wall. So if you go in my room, you look at my wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I don't have a boyfriend. I ca- I could not have a boyfriend. That would just be mean to him. Uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, I almost had one for like a little but it wasn't really exclusive so I don't know what you'd call that. I hate things that are exclusive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Letting myself be mistreated for a long, long, long, long time. I had no idea what the fuck was coming. Not really.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I was really mistreat- treated and then I just realized I was better than that and since then...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's taken a minute and I don't think I'm there yet, but I'm getting there. Aw, Billy was so hurt then. I was so hurt then, man. Shit. I want to learn that it's all worth it because it's tiring as hell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The shows make it worth it. The shows and the supporters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, because a lot of it doesn't feel worth it, but then you get to the points that do make it worth it and it's like, then it all sorta makes sense and it kinda clicks in your head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wasn't allowed to, but I ran away from security.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you helped me retain my belt, that's a good job, really proud of you. I was listening though, just uhm, just a few minutes ago. Oh dear. I was listening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't really know what men used to say. I had only their words for it. I lie then inside the room, under the plaster eye in the ceiling, behind the white curtains, between the sheets, neatly as they, and step sideways out of my own time. Out of time. Though this is time, nor am I out of it. But the night is my time out. Where should I go?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Somewhere good. Moira, sitting on the edge of my bed, legs crossed, ankle on knee, in her purple overalls, one dangly earring, the gold fingernail she wore to be eccentric, a cigarette between her stubby yellow-ended fingers. Let's go for a beer. You're getting ashes in my bed, I said. If you'd make it, you wouldn't have this problem, said Moira. In half an hour, I said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had a paper due the next day. What was it? Psychology, English, economics. We studied things like that then.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the floor of the room there were books, open face down, this way and that, extravagantly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, said Moira, you don't need to paint your face, it's only me. What's your paper on? I just did one on date rape. Date rape, I said. You're so trendy. Sounds like some kind of dessert. Date rapé. Haha, said Moira. Get your coat. She got it herself and tossed it at me. I'm borrowing five bucks off you, okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or in a park somewhere, with my mother. How old was I?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was cold. Our breaths came out in front of us. There were no leaves on the trees. Grey sky. Two ducks in the pond. This consulate. Bread crumbs under my fingers in my pocket. That's it. She said we were going to feed the ducks. But there were some women burning books.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some of them were chanting. Onlookers gathered. Their faces were happy. Ecstatic almost. Fire can do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there was another woman, large, with a soot smeared down her cheek and an orange knitted cap. I remember her. You want to throw one on, honey? She said. How old was I? Good riddance to bad rubbish, she said, chuckling. It okay? She said to my mother. If she wants to, my mother said. She had a way of talking about me to others as if I couldn't hear. The woman handed me one of the magazines. It had a pretty woman on it with no clothes on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hanging from the ceiling by a chain wound around her hands. I looked at it with interest. It didn't frighten me.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A vision in white, with a young girlish figure, was standing beside him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When she threw back her veil, she revealed a face of perfect beauty. Singin glanced quickly at her, but dared not look at her for long. He kept his eyes on the ground as he answered, A lovely evening, but it's late for you to be out alone. Oh, father told me you'd opened the new girl's school, so I simply had to come to meet the new school teacher. That must be you, she said to me, smiling. Do you like Morton? And your pupils? And your cottage?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I realized this must be the rich Miss Oliver, who had generously furnished my cottage. Yes, indeed, Miss Oliver, I replied. I'm sure I'll enjoy teaching here, and I like my cottage very much. I'll come and help you teach sometimes. I get so bored at home. Mr. Rivers, I've been away visiting friends, you know. I've had such fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was dancing with the officers until two o'clock this morning. They're all so charming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sinjan's face looked sterner than usual, and his lip curled in disapproval as he lifted his handsome head and looked straight into Miss Oliver's laughing eyes. He breathed deeply, and his chest rose, as if his heart wanted to fly out of its cage. But he said nothing, and after a pause, Miss Oliver continued. Do come and visit my father, Mr. Rivers. Why don't you ever come?

[Assistant] We live in an unusual time with corporate downsizing, restructuring, and the increase in global competition. Some view these times as problematic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These businesses have been started by individuals with the courage to pursue their dreams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yet, for every idea that is implemented, thousands of ideas never get beyond the conceptual stage, from the imagination to a plan of action.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What holds people back from pursuing their dreams and acting on their great ideas? I believe it's fear of failure. Someone once said there are a lot of ways to become a failure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But never taking a chance is the most successful way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've also heard it said that people don't plan to fail, they fail to plan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Companies these days must be willing and able to change constantly. Sometimes companies change course to survive.

[Assistant] And sometimes they do so because an opportunity is too good to resist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know of a small company that provided a messenger service several years ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The owner of the company was astute enough to realize other global corporate trends happening at the same time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The owner shifted gears from offering a messenger service to providing an off-site record storage service, and soon business was booming once again. It all comes down to perspective. When there was a downturn in the economy, some people could say, this is terrible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the downturn in the economy, nobody will have a budget for my service. Or others thought, this is great. With the tightening of budgets and the loss of support staff, there's an even greater need for professionals to be effective, which is precisely what I'm here to help them do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well hey there and welcome back to Heimler's History. Now we've been going through Unit 5 of the AP U.S. History curriculum and in the last video we considered the Compromise of 1850, which put a band-aid on the gushing neck wound of America's abject regional division over the issue of slavery. And that calmed things down for a while, but ultimately any attempt to compromise over the issue ultimately failed. And that failure is what this video is all about. So if you're ready to get them brain cows milked,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now if you look at this map, you can clearly see that this northern section of the Louisiana Purchase was above the 36-30 line, which means, according to the Compromise of 1820, that slavery could not exist in that territory. But in 1854, Senator Stephen Douglas of Illinois proposed that this territory be divided into two parts, the Kansas Territory and the Nebraska Territory. Additionally, he proposed that each territory decide by popular sovereignty whether to allow slavery or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In case you forgot, popular sovereignty just means that the people living in those territories could decide for themselves whether to allow slavery. And if you're listening closely, you'll no doubt see why this proposal of the Kansas-Nebraska Act enraged some Americans, especially those of the Northern persuasion. By passing this law, Congress effectively overturned the Compromise of 1820, which Northerners held onto with exceeding tenacity. Now one major fallout of the popular sovereignty decision is that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And why wouldn't it? Like if the people themselves got to decide the slavery question, then clearly each side was going to fight in order to gain control of the territory. This violence became known as Bleeding Kansas, and the violence continued on and off for several years. But in 1855, when it came time to elect a territorial legislature and therefore to decide once and for all the fate of Kansas with respect to slavery, something kind of wonky happened. According to the voter rules, there were something like 1,500 men eligible to vote.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But when the votes were counted, there were like 6,000 votes. I'm just a humble history teacher who barely passed high school algebra, but even I can see that those numbers are a little kooky. As it turned out, the explanation for all those additional votes wasn't that much of a puzzle. Like Missouri was right next door, and that was a slave state, and at the news that a new territorial legislature was being elected, thousands of pro-slavery Missourians flooded across the border and cast illegal votes for a pro-slavery territory. It was clearly fraudulent, but the pro-slavery folks in Kansas did not concede


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was, in no uncertain terms, a failure. Let's look at another attempt, namely the Dred Scott decision of 1857. This was a case brought before the Supreme Court that had massive consequences for the slavery question, and the story goes like this. Dred Scott was an enslaved man who lived in Missouri, and he was taken by his master to live in Illinois and Wisconsin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both places where slavery was illegal, and so on account of that, Dred Scott sued his master for his freedom, arguing that by virtue of living in free territory for two years, he was indeed free. Now, seems like a decent argument to me. However, Chief Justice Roger Taney, who was a Southern Democrat, handed down a decision, along with the majority of the court,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you realize what that decision effectively accomplished if slave owners could now take their


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, knowing how tense everyone is about the slavery question, it's not hard to see how we're headed toward full-scale civil war at this point. But there was still one step left to take, and that was the election of 1860, which I will take up in the next video, but for now we need to consider how this boiling national anger affected the political parties. In a nutshell, the increasing division over slavery weakened the two-party system significantly


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Whig Party was the first casualty of this division as the result of the Kansas-Nebraska Act. The party became bitterly divided between a pro-slavery faction who called themselves Cotton Whigs and anti-slavery Whigs who called themselves Conscience Whigs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And at the same time that the Whig Party was going the way of the Dodo, the Democratic Party was gaining strength as a regional pro-slavery party. But the power of the Democrats would not go unopposed for long. A new party, namely the Republican Party, was born in 1854, which gathered together under one banner a seriously diverse group of folks. Under the Republican banner, you had former members of the Know Nothing Party, you had abolitionists, you had free soilers, you had conscience Whigs, and quite a few others. Now to be clear, the Republicans did not advocate the abolition of slavery. They merely argued that slavery should


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in 1858, which was a year of midterm elections, the Republicans actually did pretty well in their congressional races. And that deeply frightened Southerners because a presidential election was coming in 1860, and if a Republican was elected to that office, it would, in their eyes, mean the demise of the South.

And remembering his strange behaviour with a piece of paper, I began to fear that he might be going mad. He looked quite normal, however, and we made conversation for a while, although he seemed to be thinking of something else. Suddenly he said,

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Cole is looking at himself. Cole discovered his wiener. Therefore he must look at it for ten minutes. Everyone's looking at the ground and I'm just able to shimmy back and forth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uuuh. Hold up, if I can return it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I got a point. I wouldn't say Cole is marginally better than Lucia. I would say he's very a lot much better in a sense that his balls go way too fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] God damn. I thought I had it in the bag if I just returned it once.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, nevermind on that one. I don't know what determines if that happens or not, but whenever it happens, it's just game over. That's probably the reason why I won't win a game. I'll be so far ahead one game and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, that's why I- I think you can get lucky. You shoulda hit that, Cole.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm just a poor hamburger getting drilled by a man. You are a bitch, Cole. You know that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I-I wasn't sure what to do, I just started swinging. We just gotta hope he screws up, really.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ooh, I hit it. Hit it! He did, but too late. Oh, that didn't hit. That would have been my point again, but of course we're not. It's so far out of bounds. It doesn't register.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh ho, I fucked myself. I, I, Cole didn't just get the point, I fucked myself for, for his point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Awesome. Comeback time. Yeah, come back to the next game time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a good way to speedrun losing a game of table tennis, that's for sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could, I could break that record right about now, I think. Sometimes that ball comes faster than others, I think. Oh, no, nevermind. Here we go. Honestly, I think it depends on...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cole screwing up more than me, exceeding expectations as to how we'll ever win this. I think it's winnable. I can, I can see how you win a game here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The amount of time required, especially when that happens, to win a game though is potentially pretty large. I swear to God that did not hit the table.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, yeaah, I don't know, it happens so fast, I don't even know if the frame rate of the game is high enough to catch the frame that the ball actually hits the table.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, I'm trying to figure out if Cole's actually better or his hits are just way faster and I think he's actually better. He puts these balls in very tough to hit positions. On top of them being incredibly fast. This is just stupid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, hit the back line of the table. I don't know how much longer I want to try to do this. I don't know what it's worth. Do I think it's possible? Yes. Do I think it is possible for me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's, uh, no. There's, uh, no, I don't even wanna, no. There's no way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Turn on a different table tennis mod, it's called Masters. Ping pong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I don't think it is as ridiculous as that was. We're still playing Cole, but he should not be good like before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well that's fantastic, that jumped right over my paddle. It seems so slow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is fantastic. I'm going to lose because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, you bastard, Cole somehow managed to hit the table. This ain't good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, if I didn't win there, it was never happening. Who's Marco? Who the hell is Marco?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That thing was a mile above my head. Dude, serving is an absolute curse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gotta try to hit it so light that it doesn't even register as... ooh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I need to win. Yes, we're fucked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aye, aye, aye, we finally serve it and frickin' still lose. Nah, and... Figures tie game again! You fuckin' hit the table now? Dude, that's bullshit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I should have, I should have, I should have, I should have, I should have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dude, she can hit it. She, she gets the ball that is just low enough that she can hit it. And then when it gets to me, it's fucking 10,000 feet in the sky, hitting airplanes. And I cannot get that as BeatBoss is four foot three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This game's programmed to not let me get past Gwen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yep, mhm. Same serve as before, but that time the ball hit orbit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not good. Not good. Very not good. Ooh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now we're in, now we're in trouble. Yep. Go fuck yourself!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There you go, Gwen. Have some free fucking points.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, oh yeah. Not good to be on that side of the moon ball, is it, Gwen?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't know what the fuck I'm supposed to do, we're going through the fence!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Got way too far ahead. The game is just gonna say every serve I hit is- Oh. No, that was actually a good one. Although, I'm worried. Yep, this is where it goes over my head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nope. Oh wow, usually that's right when this is though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh man, I was up four nothing by the way. Four to fucking nothing, and now I'm on the verge of losing. You are f-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It doesn't matter. If I, I, somehow, someway, it seems that this ball is programmed to fuck me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's not even a joke. I, I 100% am not joking when I say this ball is programmed to fuck me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gwen's really good at serving suddenly. And then this goes 10 feet over my head at some point. Right there! That's where it is!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is programmed to not let me win. It is the most blatant rigged ball I've ever seen. Wow, I actually had a good serve right there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh boy. YAAAH! Of course! Of course!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She gets the height that she can actually hit. How did- how did she even get the- the-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can't put my paddle up nearly as high as she can. Watch this, it's gonna go over. Wow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 3-1, here we go. The most dreaded lead in ping pong. Did I, did my voice just crack right there? I think it did. That's embarrassing.

[Assistant] Take, uh, Tony for instance. I'd never imagined him to be interested in Lucy Wilding. But he is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's always loathed her. He loathed her rather intimately, I'm afraid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Love is not the exclusive province of adolescence, my dear. It's a heart ailment that strikes all age groups. Like my love for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My love for you is the only malady I've contracted since the usual childhood diseases.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wouldn't run around town in an ink-stained suit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm afraid you won't be seeing him for a long long time. He's been murdered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How dare you touch her. Keep your hands off her. Cath card, huh? It's good to see out in the open at last. It cuts you down a size. Way down. Strange, Mr. Galt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seeing you here causes me to revise my opinion of you. It's gone up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You came to see me, Mr. Galt. About the Donatello, was it? Actually, I'm interested in a piece of modern art. Something stiff as a statue by now. It was finished the night before last. I think it belongs in your collection. A Tony Jardine. Nonsense. I never handle anything as worthless as a Jardine. No, you mishandled it. Did I? When it was found in your apartment,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perhaps it was delivered to the wrong collector. Sure you can't claim it? Positive. Actually, this Jardine really belongs to you. You paid for it. Did I, Mr. Gold? Somebody had to pay that muscle artist to brush him off. Or didn't you ever pay him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have an app. It's called Meal Packs and helps you plan and then cook a week's worth of meals using one set of ingredients, saving you money, cutting down on food waste and answering the age-old question, what should we have for dinner? It's free to try for a whole month. The link is in the description box below.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What should I call Ross again? Baby, Ross. Ross! Babe, great to hear from you. Oh man. This is my legacy. This is the hill I'm willing to die on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can I, can I, alright I'll just take it with me I guess, whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As bros, uhm, what other way would we be chilling?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It protect me. It protect, but it also attack.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you lose so much that it becomes impressive, then it's almost like you're winning at that point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My dad messaged me on, uhm, Twitter the other day. He doesn't call, he just tweets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god, it's so overwhelming. Yeah. You really have to like- You gotta do it quick. Yeah, or like, just be on top of clearing the battlefield of all the bad stuff. Whoa! What the f-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What the f- Is that good? I don't know. I guess that's like randomly a bad one, but I hit two at the same time, so. Great. I actually feel kinda cool about that. Super cool and fun. And super cool and fun, super cool and fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It does, it does. So quickly too. Yes. It's almost like... It's almost like it wasn't that hard to begin with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta mash the on with the shell. It's one of the- it's one of these like P is for pain levels where you like learn a little bit of it and then die.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Morton's Miltons. Yes. I don't even remember the bit. I don't remember the game of that bit, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you, did you know, the other day I learned this, cause it was all viral, um, Christopher Walken wasn't raised in a, like a naturally English speaking area. Really? So, that's, that's what he credits as like, silted. Strange.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Affectation too? Yea. He was just like constantly talking to people who didn't speak English very well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, I didn't deem the Christopher Walken speaks weird because of something article. Because I didn't think it was that important to my life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, it was uhm, was it the 80s when the news stopped being government subsidized and instead was run by the networks?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause it used to be like news, but then, you know, then it was about like the ratings. So, like literally, like it sounds like a, like a cliche or something, but it's like no, that's actually how it was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta give it a little. It's, it's. Little give. It's rough. Oh, actually I have an idea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, it's not good! Nooo! Especially when all six of them are driven by... Well, we have to make people angry or else they're not gonna watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay. It's about fuckin' corporate greed versus artistic struggle. Ah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. That is a- That is a thing, for sure. That is a thing, actually. That's a thing that exists in this world that we live in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That one's a trick. That one's a trick. Fuck, that one's a trick. The next one's a trick. It tricks you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you're not supposed to be tricked by it. You're supposed to be wiser than thou.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That one day was the last time somebody said thou legitimately. Eh, I mean it could come back at any time. Isn't that wild?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If, though, I was Amish, wouldn't that be great?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. Sort of depends on your views of things. My view of things is that being Amish would be great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, cause it's like, I don't want the phone, I don't need technology, I don't want the internet, I don't want connectivity. Fuck that shit. Gimme cocaine. No, I'm just kidding.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but we had to- technology is moving to everything's technology, technically. Except, except when it's nature. Yeah. But cocaine isn't nature, we made it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, that is a form of technology. That's like saying a- a spear isn't technology. It is. It- it- it's just because it comes from wood, but it is because we developed it. That's what technology is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a book about how technology's like changed our lives. But it starts out with that they- What a hot take.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, well, I mean, like how, you know, not necessarily like, that it has. Uhm, but, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, like, the first six chapters are about, like, early technology, and it's like writing, and it's like, that's a form of technology.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many Amish do you think they lose to that? There's gotta be a documentary about that, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what, I do too, cause it's so, like when you're born into a certain way of life and then it's just like completely rocked. It's like, yeah, I don't want that. I'm scared.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that was uhm, let me tell you my relationship with that clip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, that game room's clip of me going, here we go! And script from Mario 64. Right. So that clip went up on Grump Out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, it got like a ton of views, and I was like, oh neat, let me watch it. And I was like, oh that's really funny, I don't remember that. And then I looked in the comments, and the first comment was like, this is probably one of those clips that Aaron doesn't remember.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yup, to that. Well done, my old friend. And then the second one was like, all I can hear is terminal montages cartoon, and I was like, what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, sure enough, Terminal Montage, who I've known for a long time, I mean, not like super personally or anything, I've just known of him. Before he became a super famous YouTube boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, yeaah, he did it, he did like a Mario cartoon and used that clip in it. And it's really funny. Uh, and that's the end of that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it was used for- it's just, it's- I don't know, it's funny and I'm flattered. The end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that's near the end though, cause that felt like, end-ish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He invented the calculator. Don't look it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fuck! Oh jeez. He's so old he becomes a baby. That movie, by the way, I don't like, get it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have you seen it? Yeah, I've seen it a couple times. I saw it in theaters. Wow. This is so fascinated by the concept. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] God, yeah. It's so weird how it feels so recent too. It's like, yeah man, it was like yesterday. It was like, no, it was two years ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] February, I think I watched it on the plane to, uh, VidCon London.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like, I remember thinking, oh man, I wonder if this like, Backstreet Boys reunion tour thing is gonna be a big deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've never enjoyed the splendor of, I dunno, walking around and being-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I'm gonna be honest, I don't get it horribly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the point is, like, you go to an anime con, right, and it's like, oh man, there's all, you can go watch anime and buy anime products that you usually can't get in America or whatever. But it's like, it's, fuck. It's like a YouTuber con, so it's either like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, you go to the show floor and you buy like, YouTuber merch, which you can get online anyway, and it's probably cheaper online.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They can only do it for like an hour or two. Yeah. And there's so many people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I don't, yeah. Maybe I'm just, maybe it's just, I'm not in that generation anymore. I'm not like a big fan of YouTubers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I also feel like a lot of it has to do with the style of consumption. Uhm, of, of media. Because it's not, it's not like-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like TikTok for example, right? Like it's like a different medium. No, like you have to understand like the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How that format functions to sort of like understand a little bit the content on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's okay. Exactly, right? So you'd probably see TikTok content and be like, what the fuck? With like the little windows of the people's heads and they're smaller a little bit and it's like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you sort of have to know like, oh those are like replies and people are like picking up videos that they found and then they're like remixing them with their own video by putting their video next to it because that's how TikTok does it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It makes the content richer if you know that. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you wouldn't know that if you just were some guy that didn't know TikTok.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, I remember I had a teacher, he was a, uh, social studies teacher. And, uh, that was right when DVDs were becoming big.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uh, he was like, I don't care, I'm done. I've got a VHS player, I can watch whatever I want. I don't need a- I don't need this newfangled, digital whatever. And I was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, well I still feel that way, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. It just, it's just life. Check this out. You wanna, here's the real secret to slowing down time. Okay. Do something different every day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why March felt like it was 11 years long, and why April, May, June, July, August, and September felt like, what? I thought it was March.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's all there is to it man. Yeaah. Do something different every day. Do something that like shocks the system. And then every day will feel like forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes it is. It's extremely arduous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's an arduous task. And it makes it way harder when, cause that, that blue laser shooting koopa, mecha koopa,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] God dammit, I keep jumping too early. Uhm, that blue laser-shooting Koopa like almost always hits me in that long stretch with the two coin jumps. Uh, so...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, it makes those two jumps harder because there's no room for error.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright. I will do it before- before I lose all my lives, I will do it. I have two lives left. Two lives! Alright. I will do it, baby. So it's this time or the next time? I'm gonna do it like I do it in Chrono Cross.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whatever, I was just thinking about Chrono Cross.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] God, that was the funniest shit I've ever seen in my life when I saw that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I mean, what are they on, like Season or whatever?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I often wondered why Sir Oliver, the oldest horse in the stable, had so short a tail, only about twenty centimetres long. And one day I asked him, Did you have an accident? It was no accident, he said angrily. My long and beautiful tail was cut off when I was a young horse. At that time


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some owners thought it was fashionable. How terrible, I said. Yes, terrible and cruel, said Sir Oliver. Now I can never brush the flies off my sides or back legs and all because of fashion. Some owners cut off the tails of their dogs to make them look brave.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't cut off the ends of their children's ears, do they?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why do they think it's alright to do these things to their animals?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hello. It's your afternoon shoot today, why are you already here? Ah, I came in advance to make the atmosphere of the site better. Really?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So uhm, uh, uh, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A little bit of empty words are too obvious, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cage Mountain area, northeastern border of the Kingdom of Dawn. The path became rougher as they climbed. Tangled vines and giant trees were seen everywhere.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The thick trees form such a dense canopy that they could only catch a glimpse of the gray sky between the leaves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only thing that comforted Osimo was that at least they did not have to walk through the knee-deep snow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With less influence of months of demons, the mountain was not covered by heavy snow like the impassable mountain range. Otherwise, they would have to wait until the beginning of spring and summer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This did not mean that walking through the mountains was an easy task.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they stood at the foot of the mountain, Cage Mountain was just a smooth slope, not steep at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After they actually entered, they realized that there was no path inside and that it was not suitable for troops to march.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the first day, three people were injured before they climbed for less than two kilometers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In desperation, Sean, the king's guard, had to order the troop to be stationed in the small town at the foot of the mountain and selected several elites to go with Azima.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] NAF, a local guide, rather, a God's punishment witch, Marle, a contact from the Toecap family, Sean, and Azima, formed this weird exploration team. Of course, it was weird.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The God's punishment which was said to be sent by His Majesty to look after her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After all, she had to work with men all day, and there would be some inconvenience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nevertheless, Azima was sure that as long as she tried to run away, the witch would definitely break her legs without hesitation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although Marl Tokat was a contact sent by the King of Dawn, what could he do in the mountain?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He did not stay in the town but insisted on climbing the mountain together Obviously, he had other purposes


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was on behalf of the Toecat family, and indeed helped others a lot. Otherwise, he would have been thrown away with a sack by Sean Long ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not to mention the exploration team. This not hostile team could be even said to be armed to the teeth. Even their shovels could be used as weapons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they were followed by knights of some lords, they behaved as if they were prepared to destroy the opponents at any time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had nothing in common with ordinary miners at the bottom of society.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nobody in the team knew exactly what they were looking for, including Azima.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was not gold or silver or copper and iron.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only guide was nothing but a small piece of coin in her hands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wait, wait, said the guide, who was walking in front of the team, raising his hand to indicate them to stop. Be careful, there are traps. Azima immediately heard clicks behind her. She knew they were the sound of firearms loading.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the past month, Sean frequently talked to her about the legendary records of the King, and she had a basic understanding of the combat capabilities of this troop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, she came to understand that she preferred staying with these common people like Rother, who was once a witch. Rother was much calmer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Without even pulling out her sword, she walked steadily to the guide and asked, Oh, is this a spear trip wire?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, said Naff, pointing to the top of a trunk. Look, the spear is hidden there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once we accidentally touch the trigger, that stuff will shoot holes all over us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Azima looked in the direction of his finger and saw several sharpened wooden sticks between the branches and leaves, which were coldly overlooking them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the sticks fell on them, their heads and necks would inevitably be severely hurt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was definitely not a hunter's trap for animals, but more like for human beings. Where's the trigger? Sean asked in a low voice. You can't find them. Nav shook his head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every vine under our feet and every branch may be part of the tripwire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, it's not a joke. Before he finished, she had already strolled into the danger zone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the dense weeds, they could not see what was under their foot unless they caught them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After rather walked for a few steps, Azima heard a slamming sound as if something had been snapped.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then there was a squeaking friction on the top of the tree, just like a viper flicking out its forked tongue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The guide immediately closed his eyes as he could not bear to watch the woman dying in front of him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Still, Asima witnessed everything that followed, the god's punishment which held the sword with both hands and bounced the stick shooting toward hers as if she was swatting flies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Under the giant force, most of the sticks were broken and shattered. She did it easily as if it did not take much effort. When she stopped, the grassland around her became a mess. The trap is removed, rather withdrew the sword and shrugged. Let's go ahead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After realizing what happened, NAF fell to the ground in astonishment. Aha.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I knew my lords are superb and have extraordinary skills. No wonder you're great men from the King's City.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The guide finally recovered from the scare and immediately spoke with another tone. Especially this warrior. Your art of fencing is legendary. Save your breath.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rather interrupted, you'd better explain why there are such traps in the mountains. The wooden spears are meant for the beasts, are they? This was also what Azima wanted to ask.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's indeed used to deal with people. NAF replied honestly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The higher you go into the mountains, the more traps you'll encounter, so Cage Mountain is also called Trap Mountain. These things were set by the past lords.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, this mountain range extends almost from the seashore to the Old Holy City and is regarded as the natural dividing line between the two countries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since the Kingdom of Dawn is lower in terrain, the mountain is like a cage which surrounds the country. That's why it's called Cage Mountain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] NAF explained, but the problem lies in the shape of the mountain. You should have noticed when you were at the foot of the mountain. The south side of Cage Mountain is like a smooth slope. High as it is, it's very easy to go down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Therefore, the robbers, hunters, and refugees from neighboring countries often invaded the border domain of Dawn through Cage Mountain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At first, they only plundered resources in the mountain, but later ran into the villages to steal and rob and caused a panic among the local subjects.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Lord was also annoyed, so he figured out a solution once and for all and that was to give up Cage Mountain. Oh, I see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Marl Tokat said as he seemed to suddenly understand, I never knew such things happen on the border.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Lord naturally did not want it to be known by the king, Nath said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's more, unlike those poor people over the mountain who could not live without the mountain, we could earn a living in other ways.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After the mountain pass was sealed, the Lord sent people to plant fast growing weeds and vines, and also set up lots of traps.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This practice was handed down from generation to generation. Then Cage Mountain became what it looks like today. So you turn it into a real cage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although you block the opponents, you also confine yourself. Azima thought.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it were Roland Wimbledon he would not choose to do so. That man always looks into the distance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even when explaining the task to me his focus did not always fall on me. No, why should I think of him at this time? Azima shook her head. His majesty is merely my employer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What I should do is to quickly complete the task and get back to Doris and other sisters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the guide said, they encountered several traps afterward, which basically did not have any effect in front of the God's punishment witch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the night fell, Asima suddenly saw the green light on the coin brighten.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A dazzling light source also appeared behind a dense forest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Between them were countless light spots traveling back and forth to form a bright bridge of light. This was the reaction of the source material. She finally managed to find another source.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the exploration team went through the forest following Azima's instruction, they were shocked by what they saw. It was an abandoned building halfway up the mountainside.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why did the source appear in a relic that seemed to have been abandoned for a long time?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The ruins of the underground civilization can be seen in many places of the mainland, and Tequila certainly spent a lot of time studying them, she said, walking up to the mottled column and then swept the dust off it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These symbols are not their characters, and they have nothing to do with the magic characters the Union once made, either.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Keeping in mind the history of the four kingdoms, isn't that interesting? Asima was still confused.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although she understood every word Rother had said, she could not comprehend what the words exactly meant when she put them together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, she felt relieved as she saw the same confusion on both Marle's and Naff's faces. Sean revealed a thoughtful look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His majesty once said that in the past, the four kingdoms were only a collection of scattered villages and small towns, located in a small corner of the mainland, and had no real history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If this ruin wasn't left by the civilizations during the battle of divine will, then it means. Sean paused suddenly. There were people who used to live here and were unknown to us. We're not sure about that, rather said with great spirit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No one knows whether the underground civilization could breed any new tribes and create new tongues. We have to enter the ruin to find more information.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lord Sean, there seems to be a stone tablet here. The soldier, who was examining the stone gate, suddenly shouted. The words on it are written in our characters. Everyone immediately approached the tablet. A block of granite rested in the weeds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The moss had grown all over it and only one side of the tablet had been sanded by men so that it was easy to be ignored.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It took the soldiers a long time to clear it up before the engraved words could be easily made out. This is a place cursed by gods. You'll die if you enter. Nath gasped as he saw the warning on the tablet. Is this the rumored temple of the cursed? He stepped back and stammered. Sean and the god's punishment, which glanced at each other. You know what it is. I just heard it from other people. It happened more than a century ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The lord of this area had ordered his men to set up a lot of traps in the cage mountain to prevent the wolf heart people from crossing the mountain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was said that a team led by a knight came across a heavy rain when they were performing a mission. The rain in the mountain was variable and transient.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the greedy people who stole the treasures were cursed by deities and died a terrible death in the end. You've heard that too? NAF was surprised. Rather laughed out. The nature of common people seems to have stagnated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They've played this kind of trick centuries ago and it still worked. I bet it was the Lord who started the rumor. He must have wanted the treasures for himself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The guide cringed and said warily, they died one by one ten years after the incident, even the night. It was said they all died painfully.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The skin on their faces was peeled off, leaving the rotten flesh exposed. They looked hideous and horrifying. That's what the curse stems from.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Lord had to forbid everyone to enter that place to stop the spread of misfortune in his land, so no one knows its actual location. Are you sure?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rather walked over to NAF and put her arm on the guide's shoulder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] NAF paled as he looked at the arm that was thicker than his thigh. I heard all of them in the tavern. I swear I tell no lies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My lord, you can ask someone else if you don't believe me. If there's anything wrong, then the rumors must be wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In Azima's opinion, if the people died so long after the incident, it was unlikely they were killed by the Lord.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Moreover, it would make sense if the knight and the lord plotted together to murder the villagers, but it was unreasonable to see the knight killed as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The nobles could not be executed without trial, no matter how insignificant their families were. Could it really be the deity's curse?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ugh, why don't we return to the town first and then decide what we're going to do after we collect more information, the liaison Marl Tokat suggested. Decide what we're going to do next. NAF looked at Sean in disbelief. Was the Temple of the Cursed Gerain from the very beginning? No, they happened to overlap. Rather let go of NAF. What about you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's enter and meet the so-called deities, rather said with a hideous smile. But we can't enter with no precaution. Sean shook his head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, His Majesty warned us to be careful of the danger we would possibly encounter in the source. Did he even foresee this? Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sean looked over his shoulder at Azima and said, that night, after you left, His Majesty told me something in private. He said there might be two possibilities we would run into.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One is that the source is exposed on the surface, and in that case, we don't have to do anything but seal the place and return to Neverwinter where we can directly report it to him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The other is that the source is located in an underground cave. The deeper the cave is, the more dangerous it will be. So we need to take protective measures beforehand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It may be inappropriate to call this place a cave, but the temple is in line with all its characteristics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two soldiers unloaded their packages and pulled out five white coats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Asima could only use the word slip to describe Sean's movement, for the coat was one piece designed without even a button and was more like a sack that was cut in human shape than a garment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now Sean only had his face exposed and all of his limbs were hidden in the coat, which made him look very weird.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Subsequently, he put on a transparent mask to protect his face.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A fist-sized can was fixed on the mask, shaped like a pig's nose. Five in and the rest stays, Sean said through the mask.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In addition to Miss Azima and Lady Rother, who else wants to come?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The guide and the liaison turned down the offer immediately, especially the guide who had already unknowingly moved away from the entrance and would have run away if there were no soldiers keeping an eye on him. Rather did not put on the weird coat. I don't need it. Keep it as a backup. Are you sure? Sean frowned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The God's punishment warriors have a much stronger resistance and self-healing ability than common people and are immune to general plagues and poisons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think a disease that allowed common people to survive 10 more years is a threat to our bodies. This is the most common thing we could find in ruins. She shrugged.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The one-piece coat, on the contrary, would slow me down and dull my keenness, especially in an uncertain place such as this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Moreover, if we encounter a situation that is too difficult to escape, the soldiers outside would have a spare coat to rescue us, though such a thing can scarcely happen. This was a convincing argument.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The God's punishment which could only perceive the outside world by her sight and hearing, so they heavily relied on them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After having been through centuries of training, they could even estimate the humidity and flexibility of the soil by the sound of their footsteps. Asima had already seen this skill during the journey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For this reason, the protective coat had a larger influence on the God's punishment which than ordinary people who would just take it as a coat that could cover their eyes and ears.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But what if the temple was really cursed by the gods? Asima was worried.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rather let loose the same hideous laugh as she did before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's put aside the doubt whether a leather coat can resist the God's curse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd like to see how the curse by the gods could be any worse than the millions of people who perished on the fertile plains. I see. Shawn nodded after a moment of silence. Let's move now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Asima took a deep breath and followed the guard entering the stone gate. Unexpectedly, it was not damp inside the ruin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The sand that had been brought through the entrance had almost blocked the passage, so they had to bend over to move forward.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, as they went deeper, the downward passage became less congested and less steep.
