LUKE: All right, here we are welcome back to Luke at the Roost the late night call in radio show where we give callers a real advice about their real problems Let's see if you'd like to call in we're accepting calls the numbers 208 439 5853. That's 208 439 Luke already we've got the phones lighting up and we've got Jerome Jerome I hear your troubled about police reports that are being written by AI. What's up with that?

JEROME: Well, here's the thing. I've been doing this job 12 years and yeah Most of it is paperwork that nobody reads anyway, but my son sends me this link with Law, maybe you'll finally have time to read a real book and I'm thinking okay Funny except it's not really a joke, right? Because if this stuff is open source if anyone can just download it and run it How long before the department decides they don't need me typing up reports at all?

LUKE: Do they need you typing up reports at all now? I mean, what are your reports? What's the purpose of your reports other than to broadcast them to the newspaper and make people feel embarrassed about what they did last week?

JEROME: Oh, man, that's brutal, but you're not wrong Half the reports I write in Hidalgo County end up being so-and-so's cattle got out again or found another shot-up road sign on highway 338 the newspaper prints the police plotter and Yeah, people get embarrassed, but the other half that's evidence that's documentation for court for insurance for when something actually bad happens out here

LUKE: And are you finding or are you concerned that the AI reporters are gonna skip important bits of evidence or or Report incorrectly in a way that might affect somebody's trial

JEROME: That's exactly it like I was reading about how they're using AI to help analyze the Nancy Guthrie case Finding patterns in old clues that kind of thing and that's great, right? It sounds like it could be helpful. It'll make mistakes, but real people make a lot of mistakes I mean we have a long history of messing up Court trials and evidence collection all throughout, you know the world forever

LUKE: Yeah, you're right. I've seen cops screw up reports worse than any computer could But here's what gets me when I mess up. It's my name on it. I own it And what happens when the computer messes up? Who owns it then?

JEROME: Exactly who do you hold accountable the department that bought the software?

LUKE: I suppose people would hold The county responsible and the state and the system itself I'm not really sure what capacity are they gonna use these reports in

JEROME: Right now they're talking about it for the basic stuff first traffic stops minor incidents Those cattle out on the road calls Feed it the dash cam footage the notes I take and it spits out a formatted report Saves me an hour of typing per shift they say, but once that works why wouldn't they push it further?

LUKE: Well for the reasons that you described because it could put somebody's life on the line somebody's freedom The calls you're talking about are nobody's going to court for that right? They're just day-to-day run-of-the-mill stuff It would I would think that you would want to have the burden of that paperwork removed from you So you could focus on doing other more important work

JEROME: You'd think so. Yeah, and honestly most nights I'm sitting in this parking lot doing paperwork when I could be driving through the valley checking on folks We'll spread so thin out here one deputy covering hundreds of square miles sometimes If the AI handles the busy work, maybe I actually get to do the job

LUKE: Yeah, it sounds like there's pros and cons and there's a Voice to each side that makes a lot of sense And we're just gonna have to see where that takes us

JEROME: Yeah, I guess that's where I'm at with it. Just my kid sent me that link like it's a done deal, you know

LUKE: Well, where was the link from is it a done deal? There was just some link on the internet because there's plenty of those Fear-mongering type links. Oh my god. Look what's gonna happen and now we're all unsafe because the Computers are taken over the world

JEROME: Nah, it wasn't some conspiracy crap. It was from a real AI company one of those big ones out of california They're actually working with the state now helping analyze cold cases

LUKE: Well, hopefully we have some oversight oversight there and and There's some controls to make sure that people's lives don't get ruined by it But I'm not sure what we're gonna do. It's obviously something that's not gonna go away We're only gonna rely on a AI more and more as as the years go go on

JEROME: Yeah, that's the thing. It's not going away

LUKE: It's not going away, but thanks for the call Hope you have a good rest of your night and that your job isn't replaced by a computer like the rest of us Okay, Crystal Crystal welcome to the show. What do you think about AI taken over reporting for the police?

CRYSTAL: Oh, man, I wasn't even thinking about that until Jerome called I'm actually calling because I've been sitting here staring at this jar of honey in my kitchen and I cannot stop thinking about death which sounds insane I know but hear me out. I delivered twins this afternoon in a trailer with no heat Everything went fine, but on the drive home I just got stuck on this thing about what lasts like honey honey lasts forever

LUKE: Well, it's pretty heavy you delivered twins in a in a Off-grid trailer today. How did that go?

CRYSTAL: It went good actually Mama was a champ both babies healthy about six pounds each But yeah, no running water. They had a wood stove going and I'm doing this whole thing by headlamp and flashlight It's not unusual out here. You know people live how they live But I think that's what got me spinning tonight. I came home and I was making tea Reached for the honey and I just thought about how the Egyptians buried people with it Because it never goes bad and then I started going through my whole kitchen like What else in here is going to outlive me?

LUKE: Some years back I had a power outage that lasted for about a week and it sent me into this Prepper spiral where I started stockpile and food and ammo and trying to be prepared for Issues like that or the end of the world and honey was one of the big products That I stocked up on for that reason because sugar goes bad, but honey can be used as sugar It's one of the great superfoods and it's it's good for you. I've heard it's good in tea. It's good on toast We love honey

CRYSTAL: Yeah, exactly and that's the thing I've been doing the same kind of prep thinking Especially after that date of reach at the clinic last month I've been rotating all my passwords Locking everything down, you know protecting myself from hackers or whatever But tonight it hit me that I'm thinking about all this wrong Like honey doesn't last because it's protected or locked away It lasts because of what it Because of what it because of what it is you mean

LUKE: Right exactly. Sorry. I lost my train of thought there because of what it Because of what it what?

CRYSTAL: Yes, God Sorry, my brain's been going in circles all night. What I mean is Honey lasts because of what it is not because someone's guarding it or hiding it away

LUKE: What are some other things that last because of what they are

CRYSTAL: Well, that's what sent me down this whole rabbit hole.

LUKE: I started going through my cabinets like a crazy person Salt obviously Vinegar I've got this bottle of vanilla extract from like 2015 That's an interesting thing about the Mormon religion that I found They all have a guidebook that helps them to store a year's worth of food for the for the rapture so when they come and The apocalypse happens the Mormons will be safe because they've stored enough food to last for a year And they they have a whole detailed plan on how to get there and they have canneries that the public can use To to can and store food prep and I think that's a that's a great thing that most everybody should take advantage of

CRYSTAL: You know, I've delivered babies for a couple Mormon families out here and you can tell They've got their storage room setup everything organized And honestly after what I saw today in that trailer Maybe they're on to something, but here's what's messing with me Luke I've been prepping the wrong way

LUKE: It's definitely a lifestyle there is a skill to it you have to have a good organization and food rotation Fundamentals under control You know, you have to make sure you're using the oldest stuff first and that you're not just stockpiling and stockpiling But you're actually using what you have and rotating new stuff in there Um, I think it's a good practice to be in though and I'm glad that you've uh you've Turned around and started thinking about it seriously

CRYSTAL: Well, that's just it though. I haven't been thinking about it at all I've been thinking about cyber security, you know Change in passwords to factor authentication Making sure nobody can hack into my patient records Like building a vault around data, but the honey thing made me realize I'm protecting the wrong stuff

LUKE: Well, it's okay to protect multiple sets of things right if you're entrusted with public data That's sensitive you have to protect that as best you can you don't want to be the one that leaks out a bunch of Protected health information or or credit card numbers or social security numbers or anything like that So at work, it's good that you're thinking about uh being digitally secure and at home it makes sense to be uh food secure

CRYSTAL: Yeah, but see that's what I can't shake All that digital security. It's like building walls around sand one breach and it's gone But these twins I delivered today They came out in this trailer that barely had heat and their mum has got nothing stored up not food not money nothing

LUKE: Well, that's a horrible thing, but there's nothing you can do about that. Uh, you're not their keeper Uh, I wish them the best and I wish you the best and thank you for calling in tonight

CRYSTAL: Wait Luke, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying maybe I've been thinking about my own mortality all wrong Like what actually outlasts me

LUKE: Okay, let's get into it. Why do you care what I'll last you if you're gone Then you're not gonna have another care left in the world. So what does it matter to you

CRYSTAL: Because I spent 15 years learning how to catch babies And I've been treating that knowledge like it's mind to protect instead of mind to pass on Those twins today their mum is 19 Luke 19

LUKE: Yeah 19 people have been having babies since they were 19 for as long as human history Uh, that's an odd thing, but what are you gonna do? It has really nothing to do with you So I'm glad that you can catch babies Sorry for the kids that they are growing up with no heat And hopefully things turn around for both of you

CRYSTAL: You're right. It has nothing to do with me Except I'm the one who showed up And I keep showing up to these trailers These situations and I go home and rotate my passwords like that's what matters I'm asking what endures Luke Is it the walls I build or what I actually give away

LUKE: Well, you know what crystal nothing really endures it at the end of the day All this is gonna be gone because the era of time waits for no one and entropy dictates that Order is going to quickly erode into disorder. That's how the universe works So whatever it is you're trying to hold on to you can't hold on to Just do the best you can while you're alive and then once you're dead That's nobody's problem anymore Val Val welcome to the show. What do you think about this situation?

VAL: Hey Luke Yeah, so I'm sitting in my truck outside the bakery right now Because I just found out the guy I've been training for six months makes $40,000 more than me for the exact same job

LUKE: How long you've been doing it is he uh does he own the company is he sleep with the boss what's the deal

VAL: No none of that he's been here six months. I've been there four years same title same responsibilities

LUKE: How did you find out about this did he just come out and tell you what his salary was

VAL: I opened what I thought was a flower invoice on the shared drive And it was his offer letter just sitting there And now I'm supposed to show up at four in the morning and teach him the lamination technique I invented the one the journal wrote about and pretend I don't know

LUKE: What you don't have to pretend you don't know you can take that to your boss or to HR and let them know hey I want uh uh pay reassessment because of you know inflation

VAL: Yeah, but then they'll know I saw his letter and I wasn't supposed to see it It was just there in the drive and honestly Luke what am I going to say hey I deserve what Ryan makes because I'm better They already know I'm better. I'm the one training him

LUKE: Well, he was obviously a better negotiator So maybe you need to go back to them and say hey, I need a compensation readjustment to to keep up with Current trends and compensation packages Because if you're making 40 grand less than somebody else has a baker something seriously wrong

VAL: I mean I say that but it's not like I got leverage I'm not leaving this is the only bakery in town that does French pastry and if I push too hard They might just replace me with some other Ryan But here's the thing It's not even about the money not really

LUKE: If it's not about the money then what's it about because it sounds like it's entirely about the money

VAL: No, it's about the fact that I created something that lamination technique I worked on that for months

LUKE: You worked on it for months under the employment of another company Which means they own that did you patent it did they patent it You know, it's not your technique. How did you invent it? What is the lamination technique? How does it work and what makes it different from anything anybody else has ever done

VAL: Okay, so traditional croissant lamination you're doing a threefold maybe four times right I figured out how to do a hybrid fold that incorporates a book fold with local honey and specific layers So it caramelizes differently at altitude

LUKE: Well, that does sound very interesting and maybe if you maybe you are onto something and you should take your invention to To somewhere else you said they wrote about it in the paper This is something that's got some attention Maybe you could write a book or teach a class or find another way to make way more money than you could ever make for this local bakery

VAL: I mean Jackie's been saying something like that for months. She keeps telling me I should do pop-ups or teach classes at the community college But that's not a real job Luke. That's side hustle stuff

LUKE: Doesn't have to be side hustle stuff.

LUKE: That can be a very real job And it sounds like your real job is 40 grand less than what Ryan's making off the street so you could you could do better

CALLER: Yeah, but I've got the truck payment and Jackie's between gigs right now and health insurance through the bakery is actually decent I can't just walk away from study money on the idea that maybe people will pay me to teach them how to fold butter into dough

LUKE: You absolutely could if you wanted to that's the only way that people can start businesses is by not being afraid to Take that risk if you don't want to take the risk and you don't want to talk to your boss And you don't want to demand what you think you're worth then I don't know what to tell you You're stuck making 40 grand less than Ryan and you're gonna have to teach him your secrets and deal with the consequences of that And they are probably gonna replace you

CALLER: You know what you're right I'm sitting here in a parking lot at midnight complaining about something I could actually do something about I just I opened that file and it felt like getting punched you know like all that work didn't matter

LUKE: Well, I understand that that feels bad and I hope that it works out for you, but you're gonna have to make a decision To either leave that place and find some place that's gonna you know pay you what you're worth or Ask for the money that you deserve or take your invention and do something with it turn it into something bigger Now it's time for a word from our sponsors Today's show is brought to you by Overwhelmed VPN worried about online privacy You should be you should be worried about everything I'm talking about Overwhelmed VPN the only VPN that makes you more anxious about your digital footprint While other VPNs claim to protect you Overwhelmed VPN since you hourly notifications about who's tracking you How many governments are watching and which of your high school classmates Googled your name this week Browse the internet while our proprietary fear engine tells you exactly how many corporations You owe your soul to Plus our servers are located in international waters on a decommissioned oil rig So even we don't know where your data is try overwhelm VPN free for 30 days if you can handle it Use code they watching for 20% off overwhelm VPN because ignorance is bliss, but you're not here for bliss Okay back to the show Denise Denise you're on the line with Luke at the roost what's going on in your world today

DENISE: Hey Luke here. Thanks for taking my call So I just got off a double at the hospital. I'm a travel nurse Been doing contracts all over New Mexico and Arizona and I'm sitting in my truck right now because I can't go home

LUKE: Why can't you go home what's going on at home

DENISE: My son moved back in today 26 years old showed up from flagstuff with all his stuff while I was at work

LUKE: Well, he can't do that. You know unless you want him too Did you invite him to move in or he just showed up and and you can't go home to confront him or what's what's the problem here

DENISE: No, I didn't invite him my husband texted me a picture of our bedroom door with a chair shout under the knob That's how I found out this is the third time in five years he's done this Just shows up when things don't work out wherever he is and Luke I've been working these travel contracts for three years To pay off the credit cards from the last two times and I just I drove past my own driveway twice tonight before I could make myself turn in

LUKE: Well, you know what maybe at this point you shouldn't turn in you should send the police to have him removed because He's of age he can't just show up that's trespassing and if you don't want him there you don't have to have him there

DENISE: Oh, I know that I that

LUKE: So why so what is the problem? Why can't you go home? Are you just afraid to call the police or you don't want to or what what's the situation?

DENISE: I don't know if I'm being a terrible mother or if my husband's being too hard about it Like my cousin Angie's kid had some rough years too and now he's doing great He's got a job at the refinery and his own place Maybe this is just what kids do now, you know, they need more time to figure things out than we did

LUKE: No, I don't think that's true. He's 26 years old. He's a grown-ass man and he can figure things out But if this is affecting you Negatively and you you're giving up your own space and it's costing you money that you can't afford to lose Then you have to protect yourself and hopefully He comes to and gets himself in a better situation, but until that happens. It's not your responsibility to support him

DENISE: Yeah, but here's the thing I keep wondering if I made him like this Like did I do too much for him when he was younger his dad thinks I enabled him and maybe I did But when he calls me crying from wherever he is saying he just needs a little help to get back on his feet. What am I supposed to do?

LUKE: Well, you have to take it on a case-by-case situation If it's a little bit of help and you can help him out great But if you're not in a position to offer that help and you can't where You're at in your life then then you got to tell him he's going to find another way Um, and maybe you did make him that way or or have some some part in it But the point is it's now and now you can't continue doing that anymore So you're going to have to have that conversation and if he doesn't want to accept that then have the police have that conversation with him

DENISE: You're right. I know you're right It's just God it's hard

LUKE: It is hard, but there's no reason you should be asleep Sitting in your truck and a parking lot afraid to go home to your own house because you're 26-year-old adult child is there. That's not right either So you're going to have to do something about that Leon Leon. Welcome to the show. What's happening tonight, fella?

LEON: Hey, Luke. Thanks for taking the call So I just got back from pulling this kid's Tesla out of an arroyo off route nine Nice kid maybe 25 talking the whole ride back about his remote coding job How he can work from anywhere

LUKE: Well, that's a great thing. I have a remote job too and I can work from anywhere I wouldn't have it any other way

LEON: Yeah, well, that's the thing. I had that shot once Got accepted to UNM for computer science back in 96 And my daughter found the letter last week in a box with all my old Linux manuals

LUKE: Well, you know the glory days are just about over now that the AI can write better code than any of us could With half the time less than half the time Uh, it's it's probably drying up for most of us computer professionals

LEON: Maybe so, but I never even tried Luke Diane got pregnant that same year and I stayed here pulling cars out of ditches

LUKE: Well, there's plenty to look into when you get out of work I mean, there's still time for you to do whatever it is you want to do There's lots of new technologies to play with and important things that companies need So if you'd like to move into that realm, it's definitely a possibility for you

LEON: That's what got me tonight. I'm 63 now same age my old man was when he died He never left the county Never did a damn thing.

LEON: He actually chose and here I am still in the same garage apartment Listening to your show every night like I have been for years And I just keep thinking about it instead of doing anything about it

LUKE: Well, the longer you don't do something about it the the harder it's going to get to make that call So sometimes you just have to be brave and decide, you know, what you want for the rest of your life and go after it Even if there's risk involved, I mean, there's no reward without risk So if you've had enough of your current life and the way it's always been change it

LEON: Yeah, but it ain't just about me Diane's been gone five years now and my daughter's got her own life over in Albuquerque I keep telling myself I'm too old to start over But then I see kids like that one tonight same age I was when I got that acceptance letter And I think what the hell am I waiting for a sign from God

LUKE: Sounds like you've got nothing to wait for this maybe was your sign from God getting you thinking about it here at 63 years old Hey, man, you're the only one that can do something about your life So if it's time if you want to if you're afraid that you're going to miss the boat on the next thing then then make a move And if you're too afraid to make a move then stay where you're at and don't complain about it But don't wonder what could have been The only way that what could have been is going to be is if you make the decision to do something about it

LEON: You're right. I've been doing this long enough. I know how to work. I know how to learn Hell I still mess around with Python when I can't sleep I think I've just been using Diane and the bills and everything else as an excuse to stay comfortable Scared really

LUKE: Yeah, I think that's common it is a scary thing, but you know what men Men face their fears and you're going to have to do that if you want to enjoy the remainder of yours Okay, let's You know what it's time to go to another one of our sponsors

Carl Carl welcome back to the show. What would you like to talk about tonight?

CARL: Hey Luke good to hear your voice man Look I got to tell you about something that happened at the station yesterday We had this call House fire over on silver street and I'm in there doing my job Everything's going fine

LUKE: Okay, I assume it didn't go fine in the end what happened

CARL: Yeah, so we get everyone out the family's safe. We're mopping up And I find this lock box in the bedroom closet The fire didn't get to it I'm carrying it out to give to the homeowner and look the thing pops open in my hands There's got to be 15 maybe $20,000 cash in there

LUKE: Hey, it was a good thing you had a fireproof lock box. What did you do with the money?

CARL: Well, that's the thing. I stood there for maybe 10 seconds just staring at it The family was outside with the paramedics nobody saw me find it And I'm thinking about my mortgage payment. That's two weeks late the credit card bills from all that gambling I told you about last time my hands are literally shaking holding this box I gave it to them.

LUKE: Oh, that's good. I'm glad to hear you did the right thing. How do you feel about that?

CARL: Honestly, I feel like shit about it, which is messed up right

LUKE: Ah, it's a little bit messy. It wasn't your money You know, it wasn't it wasn't yours to take and it was good of you to give it back without being shady So that speaks to your character some and characters more important than wealth. I've heard

CARL: I know I know you're right, but here's what's eating at me I did the right thing turned it over the family thanked me whatever But I can't stop thinking about it

LUKE: Thinking about what thinking about what you would have done if you hadn't given the money back or thinking about going up To them and asking them to give you a finders fee. What exactly are you thinking about?

CARL: I keep running through how I could have done it like the house was totaled. I could have said the box must have burned up

LUKE: Yeah, but you did the right thing right you don't want to be that kind of person nobody really wants to be that guy If you had done that you would have to live with that for the rest of your life and you would have spent the money and then the money would be gone And you just have the guilt and then 10 years down the line the guilt would be eating you up so much That you'd have to find the money to give them the money back and it's just you did the right thing and you should sleep well tonight

CARL: Yeah, the way I see it you're probably right But Luke I haven't slept well in three nights. I keep doing the math in my head What I could have paid off how much breathing room that would have given me

LUKE: Yeah, if you would use the money to be responsible, but you know yourself What would you have done with that money? Would it have gone directly to the casino? Would you have blown it on frivolous things and then felt even worse about yourself in the situation

CARL: Look, that's what really scares me. I don't actually know Part of me wants to say I would have paid the mortgage cleared the cards But there's this other part and I hate admitting this that knows I might have walked straight into the casino Thinking I could double it first then pay everything off That's how the brain works when you've got this thing, you know Even three months clean from gambling. I'm still thinking like an addict

LUKE: I do know what it's like to be an addict and I'm very proud of you for doing the right thing and giving the money back and saving yourself from the The hell that it would have been had you taken that money because it just would have destroyed you inside for the rest of your life And uh and you're better off now it might be tough today But you're gonna look back on this and say hey I did the right thing and I'm proud of myself and I'm a decent person

CARL: Thanks man. I appreciate that. I called Manny about it yesterday My buddy have told you about and he said basically the same thing But here's what I can't shake I'm 36 years old Been a firefighter for 12 years and I'm still living paycheck to paycheck because of the whole I dot myself

LUKE: Yeah, well, you know, you know how it works man you walk for five miles into the woods You're gonna walk five miles out. So it's gonna take a while to get back on your feet Keep doing it one step at a time and Stayed the course and you're gonna be just fine

CARL: Yeah, you're right One step at a time. I just needed to hear somebody say it out loud I guess the way I see it if I can walk past 78 grand in cash and not take it Maybe I'm actually getting somewhere with this thing

LUKE: Yeah, well you said I was 15 to 20 grand. I mean 78 that's a whole other story and maybe I'd be giving you a different advice

CARL: Wait No, it was 15 to 20 I'm saying if I can resist that then hypothetically I could resist even more you know Like I'm proving to myself.

LUKE: I've got some kind of backbone now Though honestly Luke if it had been 78 I don't know Hey, well, you know, I've heard god only gives you what you can handle and if you can handle a given back 15 to 20 grand today Maybe you'll be able to do 30 to 40 grand tomorrow and work your way up to the 78 So I think you should just keep busting into burning buildings and finding lock boxes full of cash and you know Increasing values and just do the right thing every single time until there's no amount of money that could break your resolve

CARL: Ha yeah, well the burning buildings part I got covered It's funny you say that though because when I was standing there holding that bag It felt kind of like being in a fire you know that moment when you're inside and you can see two ways out And one of them looks easier, but you know it's the wrong call That's what it felt like

LUKE: Well, we're glad to hear you did the right thing keep keep doing the right thing one day at a time And you're gonna be just fine stay away from the casino and And sleep well tonight because you aren't it And let's see we'll take one more call tonight Earl Earl welcome to the show was eating you up

EARL: Hey, Luke. Yeah, man. Thanks for taking the call So I'm sitting here at like one in the morning and I can't stop thinking about what happened at cards tonight I've been playing with the same guys every Monday for six years Right and tonight I drew a straight flush Hearts six through ten and my buddy Ramon straight up accused me of paulming cards Like set it out loud in front of everybody the whole table just went dead quiet

LUKE: Yeah, well, you know, that is a difficult hand to get, but I mean it happens I've got straight flushes before so it definitely does happen. Where are you on the cards? Do you have a history of doing anything shady? I think it's normal for people to to feel offended when you hit such a great lucky hand

EARL: No, man. That's the thing. I've never done anything like that. These guys know me I drive 40 minutes each way to weld at the naval facility. I pay my bills I'd rather sit in my truck bed for four hours watching for a damn cactus Ren then take a dishonest dollar off anyone and Ramon knows that

LUKE: Yeah, he's just but hurt because he didn't win. He probably had a decent hand and you smoked him That happens. It's a poker game with your buddies nothing to be concerned about

EARL: I mean, yeah, I get that he was pissed I'd already put in 80 bucks on that hand chasing what I thought was a busted draw But it's not about him being mad. It's that he actually said it out loud In front of Ramon's kitchen table with guys I've known for years

LUKE: Yeah, sure and they all recognize that as a but hurt person, you know talking shit And he was probably the douchebag there. I doubt anybody is looking at you like a cheater if they know you well

EARL: Well, that's the thing nobody said a word after Not one of them just sat there like I'd grown a second head and Ramon

LUKE: What about Ramon you know what I think I think just just hold it out keep playing poker with your friends And when Ramon hits his you know four aces or whatever it is then do the same thing to him and see how he feels

EARL: Ha, yeah, I mean maybe but I don't know if I can just sit there next Monday like nothing happened It's been eating at me for hours now
