Absurd Truth: The NYT & Horses

Dana Lashes of Sir Truth Podcast sponsored by Kel-Tec.

It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man. Today, I'm with a man from Florida. He's been painted on the street, just off Fort Lauderdale Beach and you know what's on it? There are skid marks on it. On a road? Skid marks are on paint on a road.

No. Why did you put your thing on a thing that cars drive on? I don't know, it's Fort Lauderdale's mayor. So, they're mad and they said that it's evidence of hatred and bigotry in the Fort Lauderdale community.

Because he's the mayor of Florida. Someone drove over the painted rainbow that they put on the street and left tire marks on it. Oh, no Who could have thought that that could have happened to something that you put on a road? I am so shocked Oh much surprise Moving on can you tell how shocked I am it's dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life.

These people are just ridiculous Also a I don't know why Florida man was arrested after dumping 30 mattress box straight box Springs along a street Monroe County Waste Management told the sheriff's office that it weighed more than 1,700 pounds It was just dumped right on Front Street there and in there it said they all came from a Key West Motel and A manager there said that he hired a guy named Michael Herrera to replace the beds at the hotel So Herrera just took the mattresses and literally dumped them on the street 1,700 pounds of worth he was charged with illegal dumping jump dumps them right on the street where people pass by and can see them I don't know. I these people I have one tomorrow that I'll tell you about how there was a stripper Arrested for throwing money at a man I think that's supposed to work opposite like the man supposed to throw the money at the stripper So I don't know what made this offense You've heard me talk about my friends at Kel-Tec for years and it's because I really believe in them as a company and as innovators their firearms in design and function go above and beyond like with the Kel-Tec P-50 a Revolutionary award-winning pistol that packs a punch in a compact package the Kel-Tec P-50 is perfect for home defense For range shooting or just even having some fun and with its top mounted picatinny rail You can easily attach your favorite optics or accessories to make it truly yours Whether you are a seasoned shooter, or you're just starting out The Kel-Tec P-50 is the perfect pistol for anyone looking for power and precision in a compact and easy to use Package their firearms in design and function go above and beyond learn more about the P-50 pistol at Kel-Tec weapons Dot-com that's K-E-L-T-E-C weapons dot-com secure your world with Kel-Tec Kel-Tec weapons dot-com Tell them Dana sent you So now because remember everything's racist like parks are racist everything's racist and divided that this also by the way sounds like one of the most first world problems I've ever heard of I Mean an absolute first world problem Well, I can't I mean you know how expensive I Mean all of that is the equestrian world is one of the most this is one of the most expensive hobbies you could have and Then the piece over at the New York Times Focuses on the This it will gets into this girl named Chanel Robin. She's been riding horses most of her life, etc she's in Bradford, Ontario and She was She's talked she talks about her pony in this whole piece And you know she says she talks about what it is to be a black be black and be an equestrian Which I just why does everything have to be so divided and then people were talking about finding a helmet that fits because she said she Had she ended up having her hair styled in locks and as a result it made her it made it difficult for her to put A helmet on and all of this stuff and ace and and now the New York Times is like wow There's no helmets that can fit properly. This is a another barrier to full inclusion They act like it's the equestrian world that is making it to where No one can that they're disallowing helmets that do this.

It's the stupidest thing I've ever read. I Mean because that's it's an opportunity for just a I mean capitalism for a company to make one And so They have some writers in California, etc Who have been and and apparently I just can't it just is so this is it seems like a problem that has an easy fix But the New York Times is taking it to mean that there is not ever full inclusion Do you know what the inclusion issue is here? It's not whether someone is black or white It's whether they're rich or poor because this is such an expensive sport It is such an expensive sport So they get into the safety standards and all of this stuff and you know, they were talking about how they That they want to get around the regulations. And this is the other thing that the New York Times piece kind of just skates by because one of the manufacturers was saying that The one of the worries that companies have is nothing to do with companies The worry is that the restrictions and the regulations that go along with helmet development because everything is so regulated six ways to Sunday in this country that the restrictions and regulations as it pertains to the development of New or newly designed helmets that could actually interfere with the manufacturing process meaning it might it's gonna it might take them a while to get out then you have to go and you have to you I Mean they they apparently have to run it by the regulatory outfit and make sure that it meets federal safety standards All this kind of stuff and the other thing too is that one of the manufacturers was incredibly honest and they said Because they didn't think it was a manufacturing issue It sounds like a regulatory issue, which has nothing to do with the world of equestrianism But they also said well this whole process would take years of development as well It could take years of development depending on how much pushback they get all this stuff You wouldn't believe like the the amount and this is true because it's considered like a safety device It's not a fashion accessory a helmets considered a safety device and so it does especially with any kind of regulated sport You have to go through that's the nature of the way this is I Mean, that's that's just it And so it isn't doesn't have anything to do with racism.

It doesn't have anything to do with division It doesn't have anything to do with bigotry. That's just the way it is and one of the manufacturers was incredibly honest and said well You know this also could potentially drive up the cost For a product for which there might not be as much demand if it's a special Type of helmet that specifically is constructed to accommodate a specific hairstyle Not everything is racist not everything is bigoted I wish the sweet meteor of death would come and obliterate this planet into a thousand million grains of dust because I cannot find a Redeeming factor at all on this rock every one of these stupid headlines is designed to drive division every single one and some people were saying if it's you know an unusual hairstyle or if it's not a hairstyle that you know Every that a lot of people they act like oh, we just made helmets for just white people That's not I mean that's the whole way I mean literally one of the subheads of this piece is quote this sport isn't designed for us Literally, that's one of the stuff. That's where the New York Times is going with us As if you didn't think racist parties are going to be a part of this As if you didn't think racist parks were bad enough now you have this They say that that the Whole design of it In fact one actual quote is this And they aren't just talking about equestrianism Quote sports were only developed for white people And they only continue to keep white people protected or they continue to keep white people protected. That's literally the quote It is that's the whole point that's what the New York Times wanted to accomplish with this piece Everything's racist.

We'll just end equestrianism then just to end it then let's go ahead and end all fun things if we find one thing That's wrong With anything end it, but you know what if we're going to approach it that way. I think that should go To personally with every single person To Just have it across the board I'm just so done with this. I am so everyone is a victim. Everyone is a victim everyone believes the world is out to get them In some cases it is But not in every case Actual headline We all are dumber for the New York Times having published this into the human record And we wonder why aliens, you know, what if I were if I was an alien and I came across our planet I wouldn't want to get near it either. I would be afraid that whatever stupidity that is roiling the earth would be catching And now all of the news you would probably miss it's time for Dana's quick 5 so China Beijing is banning Chinese companies from using micron chips in critical infrastructure This move comes after the u.s. Tightened restrictions on semiconductor exports to the country Their cyber security regulator has banned these firms from buying chips from the min min memory manufacturer micron technology Reuters reports that the cyberspace administration of China said they found that the company's products his significant tick-tock sorry allergies tick-tock significant security risks so to critical Chinese information infrastructure, so um Yeah, I don't know if I Just saying I just don't know how I feel about all that. Uh, also I mentioned this and I ran out of time earlier, but this AI tool that can predict Parkinson's 90 accuracy 15 years in advance uh the The AI on this and the development of it Apparently they've been doing this for trying to put this in gear for a few years now It's research that was published in ACS central science They built AI that can predict it with 90 accuracy 15 years before any clinical diagnosis based on the analysis of chemicals in the blood And it said that it showed promise for early diagnosis It also revealed all of the chemicals that were very strongly linked To a correct prediction also, so very very interesting. Uh, let's see this um A couple of here, uh scientists accidentally invented an anti-addiction drug Accidentally, uh, this comes by way of MSN Uh, they said that it's uh, this I'm not even gonna try saying this Smell it Yeah, that sounds right, uh University of North Carolina Chapel Hill School of Medicine Apparently it's like very specific treatments, but looks like that was accidentally done.

Stephen Yates coming up next Stephen Yates coming up next. So there's a project from the coming out of the administration Cain has seen seen it. He just thought it is a uh From the Washington Free Beacon. It's a project that wants to spend hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars to translate a book That is a self-described vocabulary of alphabet terms Into Spanish and it's the book is called homosaurus An international alphabet and linked data vocabulary, so it's the lgbtq plus whatever It's the National Endowment for the Humanities in January announced a three hundred and fifty thousand dollar grant It's going to see the University of Washington create a Spanish language version of the homosaurus version of the homosaurus homosaurus The dictionary features a dinosaur standing under a rainbow as its logo Defines hundreds of terms and phrases relating to all bunch of made-up terms, uh, the transgender Intersex concepts all this stuff. Uh, I can't even get into some of the stuff that they are wanting to translate.

I can't Because I can't talk about it. I'll totally probably get fined It it is um incredibly Inappropriate Activities that some people might do in a romantical way I I don't know Uh, like for instance They're trying to figure out what is the Spanish word for indigiqueer? There isn't one That sounds like a it almost sounds like a good setting for your television Setting for your television. Oh, the picture's brighter. That's more colors The rainbow, I don't know they said so that's a term by the way came Indigiqueer, all right, it's used to just Um, it's used to describe the identity of people who are both indigenous and queer oh, that's clever Indigiqueer, you know, I Just said so it's like j-lo you just and like and bennifer you just like mush different words together to create a new word Yeah, is that how it works? Is it science science? It's science so indigiqueer so what what um I mean you could oh my gosh guys. This is a whole article of stuff. I really can't even say half of the way um, well like for instance some of the Um, nope, can't say that Hang on, but our taxpayer dollars are paying for it It's stuff that I wouldn't I don't know came where to go with this. You know, are you looking what i'm looking at? Okay.

Yeah We can't right That's the that is the international audible symbol for let me try this Okay, go ahead clear your busser. So apparently homosaurus also includes terms that define minors under the age of 18. Oh no as No as like they're children.

There's a kid. I don't even want to say it. No, no, no, no, no Oh my gosh, you see what what's happening? Okay.

Well, I can say this one. They're trying to find the spanish word for bear Which is not the animal no This is kind of like, you know what the urban dictionary is if people know what the urban dictionary is The this is like a version of the urban dictionary for the lgbtq Yeah, it kind of is it's a good way to put it Barbecue don't forget that bbq. That's the most important letters that you put together favorite part of that group uh, so they they or they're trying to get the Spanish word for bear That is not to describe the animal but a slang term used to just describe a hairy and large or muscular gay man Build a bear It gives a whole new meaning Just saying so.

There you go Yeah um I can't I can't even believe that and this is a grant That Is doing a grant So the database is maintained by the digital transgender archive, which is the thing we have to have now And it's a bunch of stuff. That's just dumb and I don't have any I think this is all so goofy Oh my gosh, look on my mom's side of the family. We're mexican, right? So very Um, I wouldn't even say religious necessarily but very family centrist gosh I really want to put a camera on you and have you go down to matamoros and ask people in your family like So what's the spanish word for this?

They would laugh out loud Oh my gosh laugh out loud. This is just the I think it's an attempt to remember the latinx thing that they were trying This is so much worse though. This is way worse than that. This is I I think this was all By design and planned in advance to sort of just throw out piece by piece to the american people for the slow crawl of this stuff and this is Oh, I don't even know. It's like like you said some of the stuff on the air. We can't even say what's in this article Yeah, no we can't Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of dana lashes absurd truth podcast If you haven't already make sure to hit that subscribe button on apple podcast spotify or wherever you get your podcasts
