In this episode, we dive into the shocking 2016 case of Benjamin Jay Barber, one of the first individuals convicted under Oregon’s groundbreaking ‘revenge porn’ legislation House Bill 2596 — a groundbreaking law criminalizing the unlawful dissemination of intimate images. This and other pivotal cases shed light on the darker corners of the internet, the loopholes in privacy laws, and the consequences of weaponizing intimate content. (Just one of the many reasons that we can’t have nice things).

Barber, sentenced to a mere six months in jail and five years of probation, became a grim example of how revenge porn devastates victims and exposes the urgent need for stronger protections. While his case may have proved a legal landmark, it also revealed significant gaps in enforcement—raising questions about why perpetrators like Barber often avoid being classified as sex offenders. Why do we still struggle to balance free speech with basic human decency? Caitlyn doesn’t hold back as she critiques the societal norms and legal blind spots that let predators exploit others with impunity.

But this isn’t just about one man. In this episode, we also examine the broader cultural and legal implications of cases like Barber's. From the shocking up-skirt photo case at a Target store in Beaverton, Oregon to the broader prevalence of nonconsensual pornography, we explore how systemic failures allow predators to thrive—and what changes are still desperately needed. Listen as we unravel the devastating consequences of these crimes, the problematic gaps in justice, and the role of – you guessed it, the always problematic, patriarchy, in perpetuating these abuses.

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:05,920
Listen, I'm here for Free the Nipple.

3
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,520
If that's what the owner of said Nipple, so desires,

4
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:16,480
we have to admit that the fact that laws in the US and in any particular state

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:22,720
and question didn't prevent something like this from happening to an unsuspecting minor,

6
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,840
a child, that's problematic.

8
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,480
Hi, Cassie.

9
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:41,520
Hi, Caitlyn.

10
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:42,800
Hi, creepy people.

11
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:43,840
Oh, hello.

12
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,440
Hello.

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:49,360
This is PNW Haunts and Homicides, where we chat about true crime.

14
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:54,000
How frequently I bite my lip, also the paranormal.

15
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,480
And I don't know some other stuff too.

16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,520
A lot of other spooky stuff in the Pacific Northwest.

17
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:00,320
Yes.

18
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,480
PNW, if you're nasty.

19
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,480
We also talk about some tarot at the end of the episode.

20
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:11,440
We do a little card poll just for a little deeper insight into our topic for the day.

21
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:12,960
Yeah, that's true.

22
00:01:12,960 --> 00:01:13,680
It's fun.

23
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:19,040
Yeah, sometimes I take a brief break from chewing on my own face to do that.

24
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:24,160
I was going to say your lip chewing is kind of like true crime and paranormal.

25
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:29,200
I don't know about that, but cannibalism.

26
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:29,680
Yeah.

27
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:30,960
Oh, goodness.

28
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:33,840
Oh, hopefully that's not your story today.

29
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:34,320
No.

30
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:35,040
Okay, good.

31
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,560
So I can't handle it today.

32
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,160
No, no cannibalism.

33
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,360
Actually, that's one that I haven't really covered frequently.

34
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,360
It doesn't come up in a lot of my cases.

35
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,840
I feel like it did come up.

36
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:46,480
It has.

37
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:46,960
Okay.

38
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:48,320
But it's one of my no-nose.

39
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,000
So, yeah.

40
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,080
So I kind of tend to, I guess, gravitate towards other things.

41
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:58,880
Yeah, the only cannibalism we like is like the Kesha song, you know?

42
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:00,000
Yeah, exactly.

43
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Exactimundo.

44
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,680
I just realized I'm still all zipped up

45
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,040
than you're a tracksuit.

46
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,560
I was going to say what did you call this earlier tracksuit.

47
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,640
I'm basically just wearing pajamas.

48
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:14,240
These are pajamas, okay?

49
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,000
It's a tracksuit, whatever.

50
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Okay, you're making it sound worse than it is.

51
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:18,800
I just heard it.

52
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:19,760
Early 2000s tracksuit.

53
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,360
I'm surprised it's not bright pink.

54
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:22,480
Oh my god, I hate you.

55
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,280
I hate you and Chris because he said,

56
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:26,800
does it say juicy on the ass?

57
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:31,040
I love it.

58
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:32,240
They're coming back.

59
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,240
You're very in fashion right now.

60
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,520
I never had a juicy tracksuit.

61
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:38,240
Meaning there.

62
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:39,680
Yeah, I wasn't that cool.

63
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,840
I feel like this isn't the point in my life where I'm going to start either, you know?

64
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,520
Like, I had like a pair of the pink sweatpants that said pink on the butt.

65
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:48,400
Oh yeah.

66
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,760
Victoria's secret, but that was it.

67
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:50,400
Yeah.

68
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,400
And they were like low rise, so they didn't even fit on my butt because my butt is big fat juicy.

69
00:02:54,400 --> 00:03:00,080
One, I think at the point where that was really, really popular,

70
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,960
that's when I worked at the Victoria's Secret at the mall.

71
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,520
So I got all kinds of, all kinds of stuff.

72
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,760
Thongs 5 for 25.

73
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:10,320
Yeah.

74
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:10,960
Oh my god.

75
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,840
Now it was like 10 for 25 sometimes.

76
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,400
It was just like, we'll pay you to take them.

77
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,480
Please, we have too many.

78
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:18,960
Yeah.

79
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:19,680
Extra small.

80
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:20,720
Extra extra small.

81
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,880
A flash.

82
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,640
Yeah.

83
00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:28,800
Anyways, I wanted to show, this is one of the shirts that I made for an event.

84
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:33,440
And we had a couple of people comment on Patreon recently that they're like,

85
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,520
where can I get that shirt?

86
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,080
And I was like, oh, I guess technically you can.

87
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,000
Because I just signed it.

88
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,240
And it was like partially a design that tail in did.

89
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:51,120
And I like did some other little like, tweaky things to it and ordered it for my science.

90
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:51,680
They're so cute.

91
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,840
Eventually we'll get them up for people.

92
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,480
We just, yeah, I, I, I time to figure it out.

93
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:05,200
Yeah, I commented on Patreon though actually that I was going to try to make like an official,

94
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,600
get my shit together basically and make an official like announcement and let people know.

95
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,400
I was thinking we should do a,

96
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,160
I keep wanting to call it like a pre order.

97
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,640
But it's, I mean, I guess technically a pre order, but also not.

98
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:27,600
But just do like a limited merch run for the Patreon and put this bad boy in there.

99
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,240
Yeah, so I was thinking I might try to do that.

100
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:36,800
And I basically just have people sign up and let us know if they want there.

101
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,520
If you want one because we don't want to print a bunch if nobody wants them.

102
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:40,720
But they're so cute.

103
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:41,520
They're super cute.

104
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:42,960
You should have told me I would have worn mine today.

105
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:43,760
Well, I'm kind of cold.

106
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:44,720
So I'm in a sweater.

107
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:49,280
I was going to say I almost brought my heat up blanket and I'm kind of regretting.

108
00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:52,800
I think I have a heating pad if it gets desperate.

109
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,200
So yeah, we're just talking about that.

110
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,600
I have a headache and it feels good when my head is cold,

111
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,760
but not when the rest of my body is cold.

112
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,560
Yeah, it's a complicated situation.

113
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,720
Where my migraine people say it.

114
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:07,920
Cheers.

115
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:08,640
Cheers.

116
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,360
Or the one who wants to make for your brain.

117
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:20,080
I just wanted to say before I actually get started with the case at the episode today.

118
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:25,280
This is one that I think I teased like, I don't know, months ago.

119
00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:30,320
Because I did another case that kind of had to do with a similar topic.

120
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:35,120
And I didn't really go in depth about this specifically.

121
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,440
But I'd been wanting to do it for a while.

122
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,080
And then for a little while, it was like, oh, this is going to be a bonus episode.

123
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,560
And then there was a lot more than I thought.

124
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:45,920
And here we are.

125
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,600
So I've hinted at this topic before.

126
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,080
I don't know if anybody remembers.

127
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,280
I barely remember.

128
00:05:53,280 --> 00:05:56,240
So yeah, you know what it is also.

129
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,000
So I don't remember.

130
00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:58,320
Yeah.

131
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,720
I know you've said it earlier today.

132
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,400
Probably and I don't remember.

133
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:03,920
So oh, I remember.

134
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:04,880
Goldfish brain.

135
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,200
I don't think you do because I maybe I don't.

136
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:09,840
Yeah.

137
00:06:09,840 --> 00:06:10,080
Okay.

138
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,520
No, you're thinking of the other one.

139
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:17,360
Oh, the one that we were talking about doing with our one of our party besties.

140
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:18,560
I am thinking of that one.

141
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,360
Yeah, I'm not doing that one.

142
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,640
So I'm no clue what this is.

143
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:23,520
This is exciting.

144
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,320
Everybody really knows.

145
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,560
Jesus Christ.

146
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,560
Shot up and get to it.

147
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:31,840
Got to do it.

148
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:33,680
And now yeah, that's the one thing.

149
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,160
I do actually I have some screenshots of a couple of like comments and reviews

150
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,040
that have come in recently from people who

151
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,120
clearly need to find a documentary to watch.

152
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:45,760
Right.

153
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:46,720
Yes.

154
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,960
Not everybody loves the banter.

155
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:50,720
And to that I say,

156
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,640
we perhaps are not the podcast for you.

157
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,720
Should we banter for 10 more minutes before we start just to piss those people off?

158
00:06:58,720 --> 00:06:59,920
Oh my gosh.

159
00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:01,600
Well, they're already pissed off.

160
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,440
Somebody and this is really funny.

161
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,560
I really do think maybe when we do the tarot,

162
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,680
I will pull it the screenshot and actually read it.

163
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,840
Because like it was a very specifically like it.

164
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,920
It sounded like she was our mom and she was disappointed.

165
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,640
And there were some very specific like guidelines and like,

166
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,240
like these are action items.

167
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,440
And I'll check back.

168
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:26,800
Oh, oh, right.

169
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,800
Yeah, is this the one you showed me the other day?

170
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,160
Yeah, I think so.

171
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,840
And you were like, that's not going to happen.

172
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:34,480
But thank you.

173
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,560
You can start a podcast.

174
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,960
Look, if you don't like our podcast, start your own.

175
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:39,280
Yeah.

176
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:43,840
Or find one of the other millions that yeah, doesn't talk.

177
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:48,720
You guys, it's like a really inexpensive hobby and or business to start.

178
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,720
I just feel like everyone should do it.

179
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,600
Or like you said, find a documentary, find something else.

180
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,040
Yeah, find if you don't like us.

181
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,640
You don't have to stay here.

182
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:57,520
Yeah.

183
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:58,880
I mean, we hope you do.

184
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,040
We hope our creepy people who love us stay here.

185
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:01,600
Yeah.

186
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:06,240
Honestly, like whatever you can do to help us with our, you know,

187
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,560
download numbers and retention rate would be great.

188
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,760
All right.

189
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:18,400
In July of 2016, a 31 year old man was sentenced to six months in jail and five years of probation

190
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:24,640
after pleading not guilty to several charges before the Washington County Court in Hillsboro, Oregon.

191
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,760
Ooh, Hillsboro.

192
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,280
Yeah, we know her.

193
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,400
I know.

194
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,000
It's only six months.

195
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:30,640
Yeah.

196
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,320
So probably wasn't that bad of a crime, right?

197
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:33,760
You might argue.

198
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,200
I guess we'll see.

199
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:39,840
No, I think that's kind of exactly the reaction I would expect you to have.

200
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:40,160
Okay.

201
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,360
Yeah.

202
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:41,440
Yeah.

203
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,600
It's unfortunate.

204
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:44,560
Oh no.

205
00:08:44,560 --> 00:08:52,000
He was found guilty by the jury of five counts of unlawful dissemination of an intimate image.

206
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:58,480
Though it should be noted that he will not be required to register as a sex offender.

207
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,680
And to be honest, I think that's at least one fuck up in this case.

208
00:09:03,680 --> 00:09:11,760
You know, aside from just him as a person, the perpetrator, he's definitely a fuck up of a human.

209
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:12,960
Wow.

210
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:13,760
Okay.

211
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,680
That's pretty serious.

212
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:16,400
Yeah.

213
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:17,360
Sure is.

214
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,080
I mean, you wouldn't know it based on the sentencing.

215
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:20,880
Right.

216
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,400
You picked it right up.

217
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:23,360
I was putting it down.

218
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,320
You picked it up.

219
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:24,960
You get it.

220
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:25,520
You're welcome.

221
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,000
I'm glad I could be here for you to pick up your things.

222
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,120
Pick up my things.

223
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,800
Always cleaning up after this bitch.

224
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,800
That is my job.

225
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:33,920
Just cleaning up after people.

226
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:34,960
So, yeah.

227
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:35,600
There you go.

228
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,280
Nailed it.

229
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:44,000
Benjamin J. Barber of Hillsboro was also ordered not to contact his victim or her family.

230
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,040
Oh nice.

231
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,160
Right.

232
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:46,640
Okay.

233
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:46,960
Yeah.

234
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:47,360
Great.

235
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:53,360
Judge Beth Roberts also ordered him to attend a survivor's impact panel.

236
00:09:54,800 --> 00:10:00,400
Hopefully they just duct tape him to the chair and gag him for maximum impact.

237
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:01,280
Right.

238
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,760
So, he doesn't speak during it or interrupt or exactly.

239
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,000
And I know probably some people are like,

240
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,480
"But, Caitlyn, what about the Geneva Convention?"

241
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,400
What about it?

242
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,000
Who is Geneva.

243
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,040
I never heard of her.

244
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:15,680
Never heard of her.

245
00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:18,960
I don't think that's technically torture through.

246
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:19,520
I don't know.

247
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,840
Is that the thing where you can like shouldn't torture people?

248
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:22,480
Yeah.

249
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:29,440
It's basically the code of conduct or the rules of engagement for

250
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,440
conflict.

251
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,520
But the military can do it.

252
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:33,840
Yeah.

253
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,120
Yeah.

254
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:42,960
I mean, it kind of outlines basically like, "Hey, so it's not super chill when you like,

255
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:48,480
I don't know, go after like unarmed civilians and stuff."

256
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,480
Yeah.

257
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:51,680
That doesn't sound cool.

258
00:10:51,680 --> 00:10:54,560
I don't know anywhere in the world that that's happening right now.

259
00:10:54,560 --> 00:10:55,360
No, me neither.

260
00:10:55,360 --> 00:11:00,160
Certainly not being funded by all of the largest corporations.

261
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,320
The world is hard right now, you guys.

262
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:05,760
The world, it's a tough place.

263
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:06,720
Yeah.

264
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,040
And the neutrals still listen to this.

265
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,560
So, boy.

266
00:11:10,560 --> 00:11:17,760
At the time of his conviction, he was believed to be amongst the first of a very elite group of

267
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:24,800
creeps to be charged under Oregon House Bill 2596, which states that it provides that

268
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:32,720
a person who records another person's intimate areas commits a crime of invasion of privacy.

269
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,200
Because no duh.

270
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:35,600
Sure.

271
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:41,600
But somehow we have to codify everything that should be basic human decency

272
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:48,880
so that when some gross-ass douche canoe acts against others within the community, they can be punished.

273
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:54,480
I mean, if they have to put like warning labels, like, don't put this firework on your head.

274
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:55,920
Don't eat the tide pod.

275
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,520
Yeah.

276
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:58,480
I guess, yeah.

277
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,600
I feel like I'm not that surprised.

278
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:02,080
Yeah.

279
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,480
I don't see it getting a whole lot better.

280
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:09,440
Which is why we can't have nice things.

281
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,920
I want to keep my nice body parts to me.

282
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:14,400
Thank you.

283
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:14,880
Yeah.

284
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:16,080
I just had to show them.

285
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:16,880
Yeah.

286
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:17,680
Which I might.

287
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:18,320
Yeah.

288
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:19,040
Only fans.

289
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:30,320
The House Bill summary further states that the amendment to ORS 163.700 creates crime of

290
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,520
unlawful dissemination of an intimate image.

291
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:44,800
It punishes by maximum of one year imprisonment a $6,250 fine or both for first offense

292
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:52,560
and five years imprisonment $125,000 fine or both for subsequent offense.

293
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:53,440
Shit.

294
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,040
So I mean, he could have at least gotten a full year.

295
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:57,520
I know.

296
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,360
Like, why six months, that's yes.

297
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:00,080
I don't know.

298
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:00,560
A year.

299
00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:01,840
A nice round number.

300
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:02,080
Yeah.

301
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:03,440
Yeah.

302
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:09,440
You have a year to think about what you did with someone else's private intimate zones.

303
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:09,440
Yeah.

304
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,800
That's right.

305
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:18,720
Barber told Oregon reporters that the videos he posted of himself and a partner were

306
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:19,520
copyrighted.

307
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:26,560
That he had the right to post them and that his victim tried to use the videos as blackmail.

308
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:29,280
I mean, that's not cool if that happened.

309
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,120
I mean, it's not.

310
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,480
He's the one that posted that.

311
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:33,120
Right.

312
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,000
So how is you posting them?

313
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:40,720
She's trying to blackmail unless she tried first.

314
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,400
Like, oh, I'm going to post these if you don't.

315
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,800
He's like, well, fuck, I'm just going to post them anyway.

316
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:45,360
Yeah.

317
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:45,600
No.

318
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,520
Anyways, it's like a likely story.

319
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,760
I mean, come on, dude.

320
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:57,920
Luckily, this he said, she said, has a slightly different ending than what most of us have

321
00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,760
become all too accustomed to hearing.

322
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,080
I mean, kind of not really.

323
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,040
It's still a very broad turner outcome in my mind.

324
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,280
Give him a full year.

325
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:13,280
And honestly, I think if he posted multiple images or multiple videos,

326
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,440
each one should be a separate offense.

327
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,240
Oh, yeah.

328
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,040
So then not?

329
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:22,320
I'm not sure how much or what specifically he posted.

330
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:28,480
There's a lot of it that obviously to kind of protect the person who's already been victimized.

331
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:29,600
It's like obvious.

332
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,680
And I wouldn't want to go look at it now if I could, but yeah.

333
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:34,800
Yeah.

334
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:35,840
Nothing.

335
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:44,160
So Benjamin J or BJ, which side note is something I sincerely, sincerely,

336
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:45,600
hope he never receives again.

337
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:52,400
Uploaded not just one, but multiple videos of himself and the woman to various websites

338
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,080
of a pornographic nature.

339
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:55,280
Oh, man.

340
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:55,840
Yeah.

341
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,280
So like I said, I mean, yes, it's more than one.

342
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,320
Obviously, I didn't look at them and I hope that nobody can anymore.

343
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,080
I hope so too.

344
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:06,320
Yeah.

345
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:10,720
Now that we're uploading to YouTube, I almost auto corrected to corn.

346
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:17,760
You know, I never heard that until the other day when it was on like a,

347
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,040
it was on a real someone sent me.

348
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:22,080
I don't remember.

349
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,440
But it said something about this is in the how to corn emoji.

350
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:26,480
And I was like, huh?

351
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,240
Was I like, oh, porn?

352
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:28,960
I love that.

353
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:36,720
Of course, the videos were produced while the two were a couple during what I assume were

354
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:37,680
happier times.

355
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,520
I hope so.

356
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,760
I hope she was having fun at least in them.

357
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:42,000
Yeah.

358
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:50,000
By the time good old BJ posts them, it was in the aftermath of their breakup.

359
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,840
Not cool, dude.

360
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,680
What do they call that?

361
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,400
Revenge corn.

362
00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:00,080
The revenge of the corn.

363
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,280
Yes, exactly.

364
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,800
Not cool, dude.

365
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,720
Which is actually essentially a direct quote from the judge.

366
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,880
Not cool, dude.

367
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,920
She was like, wow.

368
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:21,280
His defense counsel argued that he believed he had the right to do what he wanted with the videos.

369
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:27,440
And also that for some reason he felt like his ex-romantic partner had no particular right to

370
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:28,320
privacy.

371
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,080
Just the fact that you would assume that.

372
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,240
It's like make it make sense.

373
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,120
In title, man.

374
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,520
That's just a man being entitled bullshit.

375
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:36,320
Yes.

376
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:36,960
Red pill.

377
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,800
Here's the thing.

378
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:44,560
All of the reporting indicates that she only discovered the videos existed after he threatened to

379
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:45,200
upload them.

380
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,840
So that adds a whole extra layer.

381
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,400
So she didn't know she was being filmed.

382
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,440
Doesn't sound like that's fucked.

383
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:56,240
That's fucked.

384
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:56,480
Yeah.

385
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:01,760
So thanks for making this such a clear cut case of straight up Revenge corn beach.

386
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,760
Beach.

387
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:10,640
Seriously though, I'm sure the prosecution was ready to come to the table with all the receipts,

388
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,920
but it sounds like I mean, he basically he served it up on a platter.

389
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:15,040
Wow.

390
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:16,880
He admitted.

391
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:23,920
Just the circumstances like she did not consent to being recorded in the first place.

392
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,360
Not that if you had been then it makes it right.

393
00:17:27,360 --> 00:17:28,800
No, but no.

394
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,960
Just because you recorded that doesn't then also give somebody permission to go

395
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,560
anywhere.

396
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,080
But what was she wearing?

397
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:36,400
Yeah.

398
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:44,560
And just in case you were tempted into thinking that this might be an isolated incident for some reason,

399
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,640
you've lived like Bambi in the woods.

400
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:54,080
Oh, although let's be honest, Bambi didn't have it so easy either.

401
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:54,320
No.

402
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,600
Like do you not read or watch the news?

403
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:02,320
My questions because yeah, he's not the only dude.

404
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,560
Yeah.

405
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:09,760
Not the only dude for like a long time too.

406
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:13,360
Like I'm sure this isn't happening forever and ever.

407
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:14,880
Oh yeah.

408
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:19,520
I'm sure drawings of naked ladies have been shared amongst men.

409
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:20,560
Oh yeah.

410
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:26,800
People have them tattooed which, you know, if it's not of a particular person,

411
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:27,200
right?

412
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,120
And it's your body to what you wish, but okay, listen.

413
00:18:31,120 --> 00:18:38,880
When we get to it because yes, obviously there's a whole gaggle of these ridiculous individuals.

414
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:43,760
This is what made me so fucking hangry.

415
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,120
I'm scared of Caitlyn right now.

416
00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:57,360
It's not great when I go nonverbal, but that's how you know.

417
00:18:57,360 --> 00:19:01,760
Okay, I mean, I'm just going to let you know.

418
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,160
This is not a joke.

419
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:08,240
Jay David Leatherwood.

420
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,360
I'm not laughing you said it's not a joke.

421
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:18,720
It honestly seems like he like his name is a porn name.

422
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,720
Yeah, leather wood.

423
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:21,520
I can't believe it.

424
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:28,080
Well, he descendants to two years of probation and 80 hours of community service

425
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:35,360
after entering an amended guilty plea to three counts under the revenge porn law in the very same

426
00:19:35,360 --> 00:19:35,680
court.

427
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:40,160
So we're not even talking about like, these are,

428
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:50,080
they're all in the same small local court doing the same exact

429
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,640
disgusting shit.

430
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,960
No, and I'm going to be honest, it's all like in a pretty close timeline.

431
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:01,840
So just extrapolating out for how many disgusting

432
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:06,320
instances of this that there must be a hit it.

433
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:12,320
This was after he posted sexually explicit images of a woman on the internet.

434
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:19,920
Also in July of 2016, clearly learning nothing from BeeJ's experience before a judge.

435
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:25,360
But the name like that, he was clearly destined for the adult entertainment industry, but

436
00:20:25,360 --> 00:20:27,600
that comes with regulation.

437
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,080
So I guess he decided to go another way.

438
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,000
Why don't you just post your own self?

439
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:37,760
I don't get like, or find somebody else who's interested in the same thing.

440
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,680
Isn't that more fun when they're like actually enjoying it and interested in it?

441
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:43,280
Not if you're garbage.

442
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:49,840
The most egregious and appalling case that I want to touch on briefly comes from

443
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,720
also Washington County.

444
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:59,680
Where prosecutors charged Patrick Buono with invasion of privacy for taking photos,

445
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:06,320
up skirt photos of a 13 year old girl in a Beaverton target store.

446
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,360
That's gross.

447
00:21:09,360 --> 00:21:11,200
It gets grosser.

448
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:18,240
Because Patrick was a 61 year old man at the time, which is horrifying, but there's still more

449
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:19,360
because of course there is.

450
00:21:19,360 --> 00:21:24,240
I don't want Patrick the pervert in my head when I go to target.

451
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:29,920
But he lives there now, rent free because the judge that presided over his case

452
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,120
found he'd violated no law.

453
00:21:33,120 --> 00:21:37,360
Isn't that like child porn?

454
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,480
Unfortunately, at the time, that was true.

455
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,120
He had broken no law.

456
00:21:45,120 --> 00:21:49,360
Because there are no child porn laws, but it wasn't that long ago.

457
00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:50,160
I'm going to get to it.

458
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,120
Oh my god.

459
00:21:51,120 --> 00:21:53,440
I got 13.

460
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:54,160
Are you kidding me?

461
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,400
Okay.

462
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:01,440
I just feel like I don't know if there's a way that I can like,

463
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:09,040
say, I might have to read it off a couple of times because it just takes a minute to wrap your head

464
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:13,680
around how disgusting this like justification is.

465
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,560
And it's another one of those things where it's like,

466
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,520
we have to put that into law.

467
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,720
Like, this is fucking Christ.

468
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,080
No common sense.

469
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:24,960
No decency.

470
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,440
Just absolute trash.

471
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:33,600
Fortunately or unfortunately, I don't even know which way is up in this case.

472
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,520
If I'm being honest, the girl was wearing underwear.

473
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:44,640
So, Buono's actions constituted neither invasion of privacy nor child pornography.

474
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,880
Wow.

475
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:53,440
I think I just assumed that like, underwear is still private and like taking a picture of a kid

476
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,520
in their underwear is still porn.

477
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,560
But right, it's not and here's the thing.

478
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:06,640
Either way, whether it's an image of a child or of an adult,

479
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:12,800
like to me, that constitutes an image that's pornographic in nature.

480
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:18,800
If it's a child, we classify that as child sex abuse materials.

481
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:18,960
Yeah.

482
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:25,200
So like just on multiple fronts, just no.

483
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:26,880
No.

484
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:32,720
I feel like, so I could see people making the argument like, it's like a bathing suit or whatever.

485
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,520
But I feel like if you're wearing clothes,

486
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,760
right, you didn't choose to walk out and public in a bathing suit.

487
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:40,160
Yeah.

488
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,640
If you're wearing clothes, if someone is going underneath your clothes without your consent,

489
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,000
like that's just, but should just be a no-brainer.

490
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,240
Yeah, I'm so glad that we're on the same page here.

491
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,520
This could have been the end of our friendship if we weren't.

492
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:54,080
I know, right?

493
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:54,880
Can you imagine?

494
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:55,840
Oh my god.

495
00:23:55,840 --> 00:24:01,280
The judge called Buono's behavior "lude" and appalling.

496
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,360
Wait, his name is Bono.

497
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,320
I mean, I think it's pronounced “Bwono?"

498
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:07,520
Buono?

499
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:08,640
Yeah, yeah.

500
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,200
Okay, I'm like, don't ruin Sonny's good name like that.

501
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:11,600
Okay.

502
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:12,240
I know.

503
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,400
It's so funny because I kept thinking about that when I was writing this.

504
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:22,080
Anyway, this was major news at the time here in the Pacific Northwest, at least.

505
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,480
I remember hearing about this case and I was like,

506
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:25,840
"Lah?"

507
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:26,640
"I don't."

508
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,480
Obviously long before the pod.

509
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,080
Yeah.

510
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:35,840
Now, this next section, I'm lifting directly from the courthouse news service article that I found

511
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,040
dated December 2nd of 2016.

512
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:46,720
Oregon is among 34 states and the District of Columbia with Revenge porn laws on the books.

513
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:47,280
34.

514
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,160
Not all 51.

515
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:51,760
I was like, how many states do we have again?

516
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,880
I like to say 51, just to be funny, but...

517
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:59,760
Can we guess the states that don't have the Revenge porn laws?

518
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,640
Yeah, I mean, I bet you could probably guess a lot in the South.

519
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,720
Okay.

520
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:10,320
Oregon is among 34 states and the District of Columbia with Revenge porn laws on the books.

521
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:16,640
However, US Representative Jackie Spear, a Democrat from California,

522
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,800
introduced the Intimate Privacy Protection Act in Congress,

523
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,440
which would make Revenge porn a federal crime.

524
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,560
Out here, just doing the Lord's work.

525
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,720
It should be a federal crime.

526
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:29,120
Yeah.

527
00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:30,800
It should be a world crime.

528
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,680
Yeah. It should be against the Geneva Convention.

529
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,040
Crime against humanity.

530
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:35,680
Yes.

531
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:35,920
Yes.

532
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:43,040
I mean, it just makes it so that judges' hands aren't tied in a disgusting case where it's like everything in

533
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:49,920
your body and your brain says like, "Yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck."

534
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,120
But you can't do anything about it.

535
00:25:53,120 --> 00:25:54,720
That would be so shitty.

536
00:25:55,360 --> 00:26:01,040
I can't even imagine. I feel like that has to really shake people that went into

537
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:12,320
law enforcement or the judicial system hoping to actually do something meaningful in their

538
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,520
career that has a positive impact on the world.

539
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,200
I feel like that's a priest who finds out God's not real.

540
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,360
I mean, I mean.

541
00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:22,880
Kind of simpler to that.

542
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,000
Yeah, a little bit.

543
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:24,240
Yeah.

544
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:30,160
Civil rights advocates, including the American Civil Liberties Union, have opposed

545
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:36,720
federal legislation against revenge porn, as well as state laws stating that they are

546
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,160
overboard and restrict free speech.

547
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:45,680
To show someone else's body is restricting free speech?

548
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:45,920
No.

549
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:50,880
The argument here is that the way that some...

550
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:56,240
the way that it's worded is to broad in some cases.

551
00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:02,080
And here I have a quote that kind of expands on why they feel like that's a case.

552
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,440
This is a quote.

553
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,440
So we know somebody actually said these words and I'm not making them up.

554
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,080
And I don't want to be associated with this, but here we go.

555
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:11,200
Oh, God.

556
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,920
You shouldn't need a permission slip to post images of horrific torture from

557
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:23,680
Abu Ghraib or the Nape Home Girl photograph that contributed mightily to changing American attitudes

558
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,440
about the Vietnam War, said ACLU Attorney.

559
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:35,120
We roll in in a written response to an Arizona law that banned publishing any new photo without

560
00:27:35,120 --> 00:27:36,400
the subject's consent.

561
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:44,400
And in a way, I can understand the argument because specifically in Abu Ghraib and I'm not

562
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:50,080
well-versed in all of the specifics of what happened at Abu Ghraib.

563
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:59,360
But I do know that there was a lot of just general torture, but there was torture specifically of like a

564
00:27:59,360 --> 00:28:01,760
sadistic sexual nature.

565
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:11,520
So again, in that instance, is it wrong to publish something that basically

566
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,840
sheds light on that horrific situation?

567
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:23,360
That's such a difficult, but one of these things is not like the other.

568
00:28:23,360 --> 00:28:30,560
Yeah, I feel like they're very different, but that's still like a person that was yeah tortured

569
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,240
and had horrible things done to them and like how are they?

570
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:38,880
I don't know if they're passed on, but like how how would they feel about that being shared?

571
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:39,360
I don't know.

572
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:47,680
It is difficult. Yeah, I feel like depending on whether it's posthumous or the person is still alive

573
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:54,320
that maybe has an impact on how people feel about whether or not those images should be shared.

574
00:28:54,320 --> 00:29:08,400
I think specifically when it comes to sharing those types of images in a journalistic capacity,

575
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:15,920
there are things that can be done in order to protect the identity of that individual

576
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:24,400
so that the message about like, you know, as he's saying, you know, horrific torture.

577
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:29,840
So the things like that can be brought to light, but also with, you know, respect to a victim.

578
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:36,880
The difference is that none of these guys, you know, like Benjamin, he's not

579
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:46,800
guttle beige. He's not blurring the face of his ex-girlfriend who he recorded without her knowledge.

580
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:51,600
Yeah, there has to be like language you can put into the lot. Like they're smart people.

581
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:56,720
They can figure out a way to write in, but I do agree that I guess that is really broad and

582
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:01,360
and it should have something. Like quick, we need an English major. Yeah. We need

583
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:07,040
Caitlyn. She's gonna write the, get a lawyer in an English major in a room together

584
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:12,560
or better yet, maybe a lawyer who was also an English major in their undergrad, you know.

585
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,040
Fuck yeah, like it's that hard.

586
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:23,120
You guys, we have something really exciting to share with you. Let's hear a few words from our new pod

587
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:31,360
besties. This is That's So Fucked Up, a podcast about cult murder and other fucked up stuff. Like,

588
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:38,960
really, really fucked up stuff. He tore out her heart, tied it to a rope and hung it on the wall.

589
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:47,680
Fucking sharks? Eight mark under the dinghy. After his dad dies, he fucking marries all his dad's

590
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:55,840
wives. Oh yeah. He like marries all his stepmoms. I'm your host Ashley Love Richards.

591
00:30:55,840 --> 00:31:02,000
Find That So Fucked Up, anywhere you listen to podcasts. That's what. Check them out, creepy people.

592
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,640
Their info is in our show notes.

593
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:13,920
A federal judge in Arizona ordered the state to stop enforcing that law last year in a settlement

594
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:20,640
with a coalition of publishers, librarians and photographers. Listen, I'm here for free the

595
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:27,360
nipple if that's what the owner of said nipple so desires, but you have to admit that the fact that

596
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:34,800
laws in the US and in any particular state in question didn't prevent something like this from

597
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:42,800
happening to an unsuspecting minor, a child. That's problematic. So they didn't change the law. They

598
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:49,520
just like got rid of it entirely to my knowledge, at least at the time when I would, you know,

599
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:54,240
this is something that certainly in the last few months since I first started researching this case,

600
00:31:54,240 --> 00:32:02,240
it's possible that there could have been a change to that. I'm not really perusing Arizona case

601
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:09,600
precedent and stuff like on the day, but still that happened. Yeah. Yeah. Hot take, but if you don't

602
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:14,720
know the difference between shit like upskirt videos, which is what legislation like this

603
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:25,440
is intended to criminalize along with revenge porn versus images of war crimes, etc.

604
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:32,480
That really should be covered under freeze speech to protect the integrity of journalism.

605
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:40,720
There's no amount of legislating that will help your sick dumb ass. Man, again, we shall continue to

606
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:47,600
have exactly zero nice things in this reality. It kind of makes you hope we are living in a simulation.

607
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:58,560
I can't wait for the next simulation, you guys.

608
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:08,880
What do we move on to the like what do we have to do? Do you think like if we go to the

609
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:14,800
Scientology place where you were, you know, cursing out Tom Cruise, how much you have to donate to move

610
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:20,560
into the next reality? I don't know. Should we go ask? Probably should we go get our things red?

611
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:27,600
Worth a shot. I really know. I never got to want to so bad. No, I just listen. I want to fake ID

612
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:34,080
though. So I can like if they ask for my ID because they probably will, right? I don't want them to

613
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:39,440
know my true identity. Yeah. Not like they can't take a picture of my face and like Google image

614
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:48,000
search it now. I know. It's like a web series. Yeah. We're a girl that flipped off Tom Cruise in the

615
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:55,840
in the video camera outside of our building in downtown. Wow. Yeah. I mean, they've got the time

616
00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:03,280
and the resources. And the tiny Tom. Yeah. And the tiny Tom. Okay. So speaking of how we have

617
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:09,200
zero nice things in this reality. Case in point was the petition for post conviction relief that was

618
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:16,640
filed by the two numbs goals already mentioned along with a third petitioner named Jacob Patrick

619
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:24,320
Holton. He's supposed Jacob's stupid. Oh, really? Is it like a queue situation? No, it's Jacob.

620
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:32,240
Jacob. Why? Oh, Jacob. I want to see a Jacob. Jacob. I would like that. I can get with that.

621
00:34:32,240 --> 00:34:35,840
This guy just sucks. And he spells his name like Jaycob.

622
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:41,520
Anyways, if you don't suck and spell your name like that, you're fine. Yeah, you're fine. It's really

623
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:49,760
just about the fuckery on his other areas of life. I looked into him a little bit and I'll be honest,

624
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:55,920
this topic just pissed me off so much that I decided not to tug at that thread. But apparently,

625
00:34:55,920 --> 00:35:00,240
he's likely living in the tiger area of Oregon. So just a heads up on that.

626
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:07,440
These morons filed the petition challenging the constitutionality of their convictions.

627
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:13,280
But ultimately, the petition was dismissed because and you just cannot make this shit up.

628
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:20,000
Although petitioner Barber, names two additional petitioners in the caption of the petition,

629
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:30,000
neither of these two individuals submitted the five dollar filing fee or an informal

630
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:36,000
poprist application or signed the petition. So like literally couldn't come up with 10 bucks

631
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:41,280
and figure it the fuck out to sign a piece of paper. Interesting.

632
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:48,320
Accordingly, the court dismisses the claims of petitioners' leatherwood and hulton.

633
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:55,280
The remainder of the reasons that the petition were dismissed are equally fucking dumb.

634
00:35:56,160 --> 00:36:04,960
The court notes that petitioner initiated this action by filing a petition for post-conviction

635
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:10,240
relief under Oregon Revised Statutes. And I won't rate it all. It's not that interesting. If you

636
00:36:10,240 --> 00:36:17,920
need the serial code, let me know. Him, yeah, which he seeks to remove to this court under another

637
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:25,360
lengthy serial code. It's a thing. First, a challenge to the legality of a state court conviction

638
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:30,480
may be brought in federal court only through an application for a writ of habeas corpus,

639
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:37,520
pursuant to another legal code. Second, the removal statute cited by petitioner Barber

640
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:44,400
applies only to the removal of a civil action in which any party asserts a claim for relief

641
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:52,880
arising under any act of Congress relating to patents, plant variety protections or copyrights.

642
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:59,440
The petition for state post-conviction relief referenced by petitioner Barber does not fall within

643
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:13,360
the purview of said statute code thing, the law. Third, and it mentions that this same very fancy code,

644
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:21,040
maybe I should name her. Vess in the district court, original jurisdiction of any civil action

645
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,560
arising under any act of Congress relating to patents.

646
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:33,840
Document filed 1, 2, 2019 page 3 of 5, plant variety protection, copyrights and trademarks.

647
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:38,960
As with the removal statute, petitioners claims do not fall within the purview.

648
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:45,040
Basically, don't be a dumbass and represent yourself, especially if you're guilty.

649
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:52,720
He pulled some fucking Ted Bundy shit here. He thought he was so smart.

650
00:37:52,720 --> 00:37:56,320
Why do people think that it didn't work out for Teddy Boy?

651
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,520
Like, who does this guy think he is? Monsanto?

652
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:00,560
I don't know.

653
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:00,960
That is.

654
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:07,600
They're the people that do the genetically modified seeds and shit and are ruining

655
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:14,400
single-handedly, essentially, our agricultural industry and probably our immune systems and a lot of

656
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,760
other... It's debatable, maybe.

657
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:24,320
Also, you're not a plant or someone trying to patent anything plant-based.

658
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,120
Right. I was very confused by all that.

659
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:28,480
Yeah. Yeah.

660
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:33,600
You're too dumb to understand how to thwart the legal consequences of your actions,

661
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:39,920
and also, apparently, your friends agree to the extent that they wouldn't even risk

662
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:47,120
five dollars on the petition. Yeah. Like, did they just not get each other's numbers to like,

663
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,360
you know, coordinate? Like, it's so funny.

664
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:54,400
There's a couple more pages of legalese, but I think we've mined for the gold.

665
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:59,040
We found the nuggets that are worth anything. We found the butt nuggets.

666
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:00,000
Butt nuggets?

667
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:06,960
Beige told the Oregonian, after his sentencing, that he uploaded the videos in April,

668
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:11,200
along with all of the data and files he had on a personal server.

669
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:16,640
He said he was contemplating suicide at the time and published all the items because he wanted to

670
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,400
memorialize all the things that I had done.

671
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,640
Okay.

672
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:28,000
The including the illegal things. I guess. Yeah.

673
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:32,080
Well, again, remember, he doesn't think that it's illegal.

674
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,360
It's just as I mean, just goes back to just that some in-sell shit.

675
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:44,800
I'll leave you with this excerpt from a 2021 paper entitled "The Role of Torts in the Fight Against

676
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,720
Non-Consensual Pornography."

677
00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:48,320
Riveting.

678
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:55,440
"By Lindsay Holcomb from the University of Pennsylvania." So, you'd be the judge.

679
00:39:55,440 --> 00:40:01,520
93% of the victims of non-consensual porn are female.

680
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:09,280
"An images of women make up the vast majority of content posted on websites dedicated to non-consensual

681
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,840
pornography." I'm going to say that again.

682
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:18,400
"Websites dedicated to non-consensual pornography."

683
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,160
It's not okay.

684
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:24,800
"Men are twice as likely to have shared non-consensual porn than women

685
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:31,600
and women are 2.5 times as likely to have been threatened with non-consensual porn."

686
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:39,600
"People between the ages of 18 and 25 are far more likely to have perpetrated revenge porn than

687
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:47,200
people in other age groups, while people between the ages of 34 and 41 have reported the highest levels

688
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:52,160
of lifetime victimization of by non-consensual porn."

689
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:59,920
Finally, non-consensual porn is perpetrated against sexual minorities at rates slightly higher

690
00:40:59,920 --> 00:41:05,520
than against individuals who identify as heterosexual. Because, of course,

691
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:12,960
all of these statistics speak to the dominant social force driving the non-consensual dissemination

692
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:22,720
of intimate images. The exercise of mastery, coercion, and control by advantaged groups over

693
00:41:22,720 --> 00:41:31,600
the less powerful. The fucking patriarchy." Literally. "She found the classiest way to say it."

694
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:36,800
"Other than just the fucking patriarchy." "Look, this is pretty good timing for this episode."

695
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:42,000
"Yeah. I know. Just worked out that way. I've had this written for months."

696
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:48,160
Basically, what we're saying here is that, as with other true crime topics,

697
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:55,440
unfortunately, facts of life here, people. Sorry, not sorry, because I didn't do it.

698
00:41:55,440 --> 00:42:01,600
Purpose traders are disproportionately male and also fuck the fucking patriarchy.

699
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,920
Say it one more time.

700
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:13,440
The fucking patriarchy. The same way that sexual assault is rarely really as much about sex as we might

701
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:21,280
think as it is about control. Surely, it must be obvious that these crimes, based largely on the

702
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:28,800
internet, really are too. It's just about having a sense of ownership or control over something that

703
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:36,320
does not belong to you. I don't understand the obsession. You have control over yourself.

704
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:45,680
Is that not enough for people? Not for everyone. That's all I have. Besides a burning desire to shower

705
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:53,120
and scrub myself with steel wool. Yeah, same. It reminds me of the documentary I watched with the

706
00:42:53,120 --> 00:43:00,800
you up website and the Swiffer girl. When I watched that documentary, it happened to be right around

707
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:05,360
the same time as I was writing these notes. I texted you about it. You're like, "Bitch."

708
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:12,720
I'm working on it. That was a hard thing to watch. Yeah, it was really awful.

709
00:43:12,720 --> 00:43:18,160
Especially with the Swiffer girl one, because she took the video and sent it to someone,

710
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:26,800
but then they passed it around the school. It's like, "Yeah, she sent it, but not with the intention

711
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:30,320
of having everyone in the world see it and it ended up on the internet."

712
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:39,280
Honestly, I feel like not an apples to apples situation, but I feel like this sort of makes me think of

713
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:51,680
when it comes to drug enforcement laws. There are quantities that are by statute

714
00:43:51,680 --> 00:44:01,040
specified as four personal use versus if you have certain types of paraphernalia or a certain

715
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:09,760
quantity of substance of choice that is considered with its intent to distribute.

716
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:15,920
It's dissemination, which is like that's the difference in that case as well. It's like,

717
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:22,720
"Well, that was four personal use and you intended to distribute." She was underage too.

718
00:44:22,720 --> 00:44:31,200
It was obviously child porn, but it was thinking, I don't know if they address this in the

719
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:37,920
documentary not spend so long, but if you're a child taking pictures or video of your own self,

720
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:48,400
is that considered you having porn if it's of yourself? I would imagine that that is case by case,

721
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:54,320
because every jurisdiction is going to be different, but I'm not aware of any case where

722
00:44:54,320 --> 00:45:02,320
that has actually, they don't typically go after a minor for that. It would be a weird thing to go

723
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:06,080
after. I feel like, but it just was like a thought in my head. It's like, wait, is that?

724
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:11,200
It gets into a very tricky gray area. I do know that there are instances where

725
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:21,200
law enforcement has essentially said, this is child porn, so you could be charged.

726
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:29,440
I know that technically by the letter of the law in some places, people have been told, you could

727
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:34,960
be charged for this. I don't know that I am aware of any cases where that was actually successfully

728
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:44,800
carried out. That feels like a gross mischaracterization in just that you're victimizing a person

729
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:51,680
all over again. If in the instance, like you were talking about with the documentary, I just

730
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:59,360
yeah, that's it was a hard one. Yeah. Well, I better go burn all of my teenage titty pictures.

731
00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:08,320
So I don't get arrested. I think I do have one. I have one, but I think I was 18 when I took it.

732
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:14,560
You have to take them periodically and save them so that you can remember how beautiful you were.

733
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:24,480
And how perky. I've heard so many people say that. Take all of the new 12 year, you know,

734
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:34,800
while you're young, you like kick it back. No, I'm ancient. No, you've got to take them now too,

735
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:40,000
because when you're [Redacted], you're like dang. Look at them boobies!

736
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:48,720
I'm sorry. Did you say 29? I was like, we were going. I aged you. Sorry. I'm just kidding. We'll

737
00:46:48,720 --> 00:46:54,000
bleep it out. We don't want anyone to know how the kid one is. Yeah. And basically a fetus.

738
00:46:54,000 --> 00:47:01,200
I guess should we do some tarot? I feel like that might make us feel better. Yeah, let's do some

739
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:10,880
tarot. Okay. Some titty tarot. So pleased with yourself. We're doing some tarot.

740
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:17,360
Tarot. Caitlyn Shuffle. She cleansed and shuffled this beautiful new deck. Do you want to tell us about

741
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:24,640
it? Oh, yeah. So I chose a deck that's vintage like all of these men with their trash ideas.

742
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:33,280
Yeah, welcome. Housewife tarot. It's so cute. It's like vintage like 1950s, like leave it to beaver,

743
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:44,000
type imagery. It's got like what is this? Plot. Checkers. Plot. Yeah, man. Ah, paper towels. We should

744
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:51,040
use this for flail man. Yeah, I didn't even realize that was the pattern on it. Damn. That's okay.

745
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:59,040
The mushroom one worked. Yeah, no, that was perfect. Amigurred. Okay. Give it one more good one

746
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:08,480
and then I'll spread them out for Caitlyn. Concentually. Yes. Only consensually spreading is allowed.

747
00:48:10,240 --> 00:48:20,160
Oh, oh, this is so cute. Is it? I'm excited to see it. We got the two of cups. Oh, okay, but look

748
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:28,400
though. Oh my gosh, it's like the candle you put out is like the two people. Yeah. It's picking up a

749
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:36,560
vibe. It's two people in like champagne glasses, but it's not, it's like a mimosa kind of. I think it

750
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:45,520
might be like a campari drink. That was so popular. I don't know. I don't know. It's kind of bit,

751
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:54,640
I don't like it. I have zero time for that. Oh, wait, too bitter. What? Stop it. What? I'll have to look

752
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:58,800
it up. Okay, someone gave me a drink last night and it was like really bitter, like kind of great

753
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:06,000
fruity, orangey, cranberry. Yeah. Is it what is it? It might be a campari. That is fucking crazy. I'm

754
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:11,280
gonna text her right now and ask her what it was. Okay. We need to know. What are the fucking chances

755
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:17,200
of that? Why? I've never even heard of this drink before last night. Really? Yeah. Well, like I said,

756
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:21,200
I have zero time for that. It was delicious. I love it. It was like bitter. Oh, like I really love

757
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:27,280
bitter. Okay. You liked it. Yeah. I really liked it. Not a fan. But good for you. Glad you had it.

758
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:33,440
And that's so funny. Now it's like heavily featured all of a sudden. That's insane. What does it mean?

759
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:40,560
What does that mean? Okay. And on the surface, I feel like seems like maybe an odd card.

760
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:47,120
Two of cups, I feel like has such a positive connotation to it. But I feel like it's just channeling

761
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:52,800
what we've been saying this whole time. It's like, well, I'm gonna get into it. I believe you.

762
00:49:54,080 --> 00:50:00,720
Keywords for two of cups are partnership, harmony, creative exchange and cooperation.

763
00:50:00,720 --> 00:50:08,560
You need all those things to put porn out there. Sure. Sure do. I would imagine. Yes.

764
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:14,240
Please. I just think it's talking about like a healthy partnership. Yeah. Yeah.

765
00:50:14,240 --> 00:50:21,200
In many decks, the two of cups shows a man and woman holding chalices as if toasting each other.

766
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:27,440
Hey, girl. Cheers. I'll be the man. Chalice. Okay. I'm not tall enough. So.

767
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:37,600
Okay. The card represents joining forces with someone either romantically or in a creative/spiritual

768
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:44,480
endeavor. You share a common dream, interest or passion and can work together to bring it into being.

769
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:51,440
Mutual respect and equality exists between you. So just the opposite of everything that happened here.

770
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:55,360
Exactly. All of our hopes and prayers. That's impairs.

771
00:50:55,360 --> 00:51:03,920
The upright two indicates a period of harmony when things go smoothly between you and another person.

772
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:10,960
Super the opposite, but that's fine. Could have been if you had all of these things like love and trust

773
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:20,080
and respect. Yes. Oh, okay. You're gonna love this. Next sentence. I think of this as the honeymoon card.

774
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:26,560
And we got out your honeymoon gift or your wedding gift. Yeah.

775
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:34,160
When you have high hopes and experience a time of accord, optimism, inspiration and goodwill.

776
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:41,120
In a reading about money, the upright two suggests a financial partnership or merging your resources

777
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:47,520
with someone else's for mutual gain. It can also mean financial support comes from a partner or

778
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:55,520
backer. Just making sure the tumor was over. We are making a cheesy, garlicky pull apart bread and

779
00:51:55,520 --> 00:52:02,480
I could not be more excited. It is food porn. Oh my god, that's so true. We should take a

780
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:07,840
picture of the garlic bread with the pulling apart the cheese. Yeah. Do we need the breath's consent

781
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:15,520
to post it? She said yes. If the reading is about your job, this card describes a partnership

782
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:22,320
that benefits both people. You inspire one another and enjoy working together. It can also represent

783
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:28,320
cooperation and creative collaboration in your workplace like maybe you're in the industry.

784
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:35,520
In a reading about love, the two upright symbolizes a happy relationship that's developing smoothly.

785
00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:42,640
You understand each other's needs and bring out the best in one another. This card shows harmony,

786
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:50,960
balance and mutual respect between two parties. Yeah. Just like I said, that's just like how it should be

787
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:58,880
if you're going to be. Yeah. Just everything that's missing from. Yeah. I love it. We just did it again

788
00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:05,520
where I don't finish a sentence and I just say it's like yeah and then you finish what my thought

789
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:11,280
for me. Oh yeah, we both do that to each other. We finish each other's sandwiches all the time.

790
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:16,640
I noticed it a lot lately where I'm just like and you know like yeah and the thing and I don't like say

791
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:21,920
anything but I just expect everyone to know what I'm talking about. Obviously you know the guy

792
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:29,280
at the place with the thing. It's just it's something I do. I'm I apologize. Yeah. I don't know if that's

793
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:39,040
like uniquely female thing and uniquely American thing. I right. I don't know. Not really sure. I don't

794
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:42,880
know. You guys get me. I feel like you guys get me. So you just probably know what I'm saying.

795
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:48,240
Finish her sandwiches. See, actually don't that's mine. Yeah. I was going to say I knew that was

796
00:53:48,240 --> 00:53:54,560
going to get you. I walked the other half of that leader. She is obsessed with my name on it.

797
00:53:54,560 --> 00:54:04,480
I am surrounded by a bunch of sandwich loving weirdos. You really are. Yeah. Was there any extras or

798
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:12,880
you know there is it's really just an extension of like and we've read it so many times too. Yeah.

799
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:19,600
Raising glasses in a toast recalls the ancient traditions of offering sacred libations

800
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:28,320
to the goddesses and gods in hopes of receiving favors from them. The Greek god Dionysus and his

801
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:35,280
Roman counterpart, Bacchus are perhaps the best known wine drinking day it is. Yeah. That's my

802
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:45,040
kind of gal. But mythology also raises its glass to the Zulu fertility goddess and we decidedly

803
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:51,920
camp pronounced. Yes. I'm not going to try because Google it someday. Yeah. I want to if I'm

804
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:56,480
going to say it, I would like to have the pronunciation key because I it I feel like it's

805
00:54:56,480 --> 00:55:03,520
intensitive to just blah blah blah. Yeah. Just fumble through especially goddess like fuck. Yeah.

806
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:08,640
Fertility goddess. She's going to fuck your life up. I know. Let's not be pissing her off. Okay.

807
00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:19,520
The Samarion beer goddess Nincasi the African party girl goddess Yasegi and succulist the Celtic god

808
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:27,520
of alcoholic drinks. So Irish. That takes me back to last night. Oh yeah. Working on our special

809
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:37,280
super secret fun project for hopefully soonish. We'll see. Yeah. I feel like we set it on our last

810
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:43,440
episode. Did we? Did we actually say what we were doing? Yeah. We said it was a weed podcast. We

811
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:50,400
did. Yeah. My god. Are you so we're recording the weed podcast now? Oh. Or we said we're just starting

812
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:55,200
a new podcast. I don't know if we said. I don't think we said. Yeah. Oops. Now you know. Oops. All

813
00:55:55,200 --> 00:56:02,640
berries. Oops. All weed. Yeah. Oops. All weed. Oh, all berries. That's another hint. What's to come?

814
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:09,680
Little Easter egg there. Oh my goodness. I love this for us. But you know what I love more. What?

815
00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:18,400
Obviously the garlic cheesy polar bread. The garlic bread. Polar bread. It's a pitchfork crowd.

816
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:24,640
Oh boy. Remember that one time I was trying to think of an angry mob and I said pitchfork crowd

817
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:30,320
and Caitlin didn't even correct me. It just kept going. I think I just knew what you meant. And I was

818
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:36,480
like I feel like everybody else. Well, I didn't even think to question it. Pitchfork crowd. So

819
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:43,360
sometimes I don't know. I feel like if it makes a difference or like I flag it as something like

820
00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:49,280
oh no, you're no like you're just like having like a it's like a tongue twister thing or you're

821
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:54,240
just like having a brain fart. I'm like okay, yeah, I'm going to step in. But like if it made sense

822
00:56:54,240 --> 00:57:02,480
in my head like all better off. And I was like yes, this makes sense. I'm with you. I would never

823
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:08,400
correct you in that situation unless I feel like it. You know what I mean? I don't want to just be a dick.

824
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:14,880
And I mean, please, please be a dick to me. I love dicks. We talked about it earlier.

825
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:18,640
It's true. I have them all over my mat. I know you're dick mat.

826
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:27,200
Well, I just want to say I support porn if you're paying people who are in a

827
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:33,120
consensual loving committed relationship to watch it and not just watching it for free on the internet.

828
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:41,600
What that makes it sound like you support it like only if the people in the porn are like

829
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:48,400
in a relationship. Oh, oh, I just mean like if it's consensual and yeah, I do like to watch a loving

830
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:53,760
relationship, you know, I just mean I just mean like at first I thought you were saying like,

831
00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:59,280
oh, only people in a relationship should make porn. I didn't mean that. I didn't. I was just thinking

832
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:05,280
like personally, that's what I like to watch. But yeah, I was like, you said the dick and I feel like

833
00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:11,760
people might get confused by that. Like, does she think everyone in porn is like they're all together?

834
00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:17,520
They're all together. They're all together. No, no, no, I did not mean that. Thank you. Yes, please

835
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:23,360
correct. Well, that might have been my wires crossing. But yeah, definitely like pay people for

836
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:29,600
the work that they do. And that way it kind of ensures that it is consensual. It's

837
00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:35,040
regulated. It's like another step of like helping to ensure that it's not going to completely

838
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:40,880
ensure it. I'm sure. But no, because people are trying. Yeah. But if you do like only fans where you

839
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:46,880
go straight to their page and, you know, subscribe, it's more likely to be hopefully that's a

840
00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:56,480
add that layer of yeah. And I know, I know I've heard of like websites or things like sources you can

841
00:58:56,480 --> 00:59:01,840
go that will give you like a list of websites of like ethical porn too. I did. I think I saw it on

842
00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:06,880
another documentary. I was watching. I don't. I think yeah, I don't know which one it was. I watched

843
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:13,600
so many fucking sex documentaries and shows. But yeah, yeah, I think it was one that was specifically

844
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:24,480
related to the porn industry like in a consensual capacity. But also they touched on how the lines

845
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:34,240
can be blurred between totally consensual, maybe not always the most ethical, but pornography in

846
00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:40,320
the way that we all think of it where no one is, you know, in theory being harmed versus

847
00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:49,040
sex trafficking. And they taught it, you know, I feel like unfortunately there's there can be some

848
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:57,520
there's blurring of lines. I'm like, no, it's not blurry. It's not blurry. It's not. Yeah. Yeah.

849
00:59:57,520 --> 01:00:01,120
Yeah. But just, you know, you have to have an awareness around it to be able to

850
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:08,400
differentiate something. Yeah. That's a good. Yeah. So you're welcome. Yeah. If we can actually maybe we

851
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:15,760
can track down a link. Oh yeah. To provide people so that if they're looking for, you know, like resources.

852
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:21,360
Yeah. Just something that allows you to kind of like vet what you're looking at. Yeah. So you don't

853
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:27,280
accidentally stumble upon some revenge porn that you just, I mean, you don't know. You can never

854
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:33,360
know. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I feel like it's been a pretty pervasive problem actually on porn hubs.

855
01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:41,840
So that's sad too, because it's like they're real people. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's a lot of yuck.

856
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:48,720
Or are you going to say it's sad for some other read? Did I? Oh, no, it's just sad. Like all around.

857
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:54,960
I don't know. Yeah. Because like so many people go to like the free resource, especially kids. Oh my

858
01:00:54,960 --> 01:01:00,000
God, because kids can't pay for it. Right. So they're just going to Google online and yeah,

859
01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:05,840
then they end up seeing the worst of it. Yeah. I mean, unless you are, you know, like a certain somebody

860
01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:11,120
that we just talked about recently who just steeled, who just stole somebody else's credit card.

861
01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:18,080
I'll say who would, who would steal and I tripped over it. It was really like that was, that was

862
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:24,240
my best. It was my best moment today. It was incredible. If you're going to be like somebody who,

863
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:31,040
and we talked about pretty recently, who stole people's credit cards and right. Colton. Yeah. Colton.

864
01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:36,960
Colton Harris. More. I only know that because I just edited it. Not that long ago.

865
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:46,800
Yeah. Fresh in your mind. So fresh. So fresh. So fresh and so barefoot clean. Oh boy. Well,

866
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:52,080
should we do that? I think we should. Yeah, let's do it. I think we did a good job. And by that

867
01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:56,800
thing, I mean, the girl like cheesy bread cannot be more clear about that. Goodbye. We're going to go

868
01:01:56,800 --> 01:02:05,760
to your okay, let's go. Just like the row off our head. Let's go. Pay for you. 20 minutes. Let's go.

869
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:17,520
Oh man. Have a creepy ass day. See you next Tuesday. I'm not sure like an actual creep who's like

870
01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:24,320
actually sharing people's naked bodies without their permission. Yeah. Or unless I eat so much

871
01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:29,200
garlic bread that I literally explode because then I might need more than a week. Don't worry,

872
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:36,480
everyone. I will share pictures of her exploding for journalistic purposes. That makes me think

873
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:42,960
about garlic cheesy pull apart bread as a war crime. And now I'm saying it's not it's never a war crime.

874
01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:49,760
Garlic cheesy bread and bread can never be a war crime. Never could be. Did you have anything else

875
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:55,520
funny to say? No, never funny. Dude, that's going to be the end of the show. Did you have anything

876
01:02:55,520 --> 01:03:01,760
else funny to say? No, I'm never funny. Yeah, honestly, that is kind of stupid.
