Steve-O was on Joe Rogan's show trying to defend trans people and Rogan went off, he called trans people "fucking perverts" and "mass shooters" who have done the majority of school shootings.

good to know this slushbrained troglodyte can say straight up defamatory lies about a heavily targeted vulnerable marginalized group into the loudest podcast mic in existence & suffer 0 repercussions. if this bonehead said that about some other minorities someone would cold clock him in the street.

What if we just replaced oxygen with swag?

QuoteThe "Red Car" Phenomenon
The RAS explains how deciding you want a specific item, like a red car, suddenly makes that item appear everywhere. This isn't magic; it is the first sign that your brain's internal filter has been given a new priority.

The Brain's Bouncer
The Reticular Activating System is introduced as a network of neurons in the brainstem. Its primary job is to act as a gatekeeper, deciding which pieces of sensory information get a "VIP pass" into your conscious mind and which are ignored to prevent mental overload.

The Three-Step Filter Process
The RAS follows a specific sequence: it takes in raw sensory input, scans it to ask if the data is "relevant or important," and finally allows only the "yes" items to reach your awareness. This is why you can instantly hear your own name even in a loud, crowded room.

Programming Your Reality
The RAS to a personal search engine. By changing your internal dialogue—moving from "Why is this hard?" to "What is the first step?"—you literally reprogram your brain to seek out solutions and opportunities rather than obstacles.
