1
A very blue collection of comfy cozy items out now, more info at the end of the video.
2
Excuse me sir, I believe you're lost.
3
Hell is this way!
4
You know, the topic of squishing bugs has actually become a bit of a polarizing subject because of the internet.
5
And it all amounts to good PR.
6
Don't hurt the bees, they pollinate and make honey.
7
Don't hurt the ants, they're nature's broom cleaning up so many messes.
8
Don't hurt the spiders, they kill all the bugs we actually hate, right?
9
Flies and mosquitoes and roaches and termites, bedbugs and silverfish and wasps!
10
Get them all out of here!
11
Erase their existence from the Earth!
12
Ahem.
13
Sounds like certain bugs get a pass if we view them as beneficial to us in certain ways.
14
But you know who else eats other pests?
15
Scorpions.
16
Though I'd wager you're far more willing to smack one of them over a spider, aren't ya?
17
You know who else is nature's broom?
18
Maggots.
19
But they make you want to puke, don't they?
20
Point is, every species of insect and arachnid has a benefit to the delicate ecosystem of the planet we live on, no matter how disgusting or scary or annoying or dangerous they are.
21
Do I think we should go out of our way to exterminate every scorpion on the face of the planet?
22
No, absolutely not.
23
And if you can, should you use the relocation method on the odd intruder into your home?
24
Sure, as best as you're able to.
25
But is occasionally smacking a scorpion that's about to disappear into your bedsheets okay?
26
Who's to say?
27
I guess that's the discussion.
28
I have definitely taken on a more empathetic stance on bugs as I get older, but it wasn't always that way.
29
There was a weird phase I went through starting about the age of 11 where I suddenly
30
and totally inexplicably became scared of most bugs.
31
Funny, that's about the time that my family went to Disney's Animal Kingdom for the first time.
32
But I'm sure that's entirely unrelated.
33
This means the world!
34
Entirely unrelated.
35
That's the 3D show It's Up to Be a Bug over at Disney World, and I was terrified of it.
36
I think I actually ran out of it the first few times I saw it.
37
Which is ironic because Flick's whole motivation in that show is to get humans to empathize with bugs.
38
Before the show, only really had a fear of wasps and bees.
39
After the show, all bugs were made by a dark evil force hell-bent on destroying me!
40
Except the ones with pretty privilege, of course.
41
But do you want to know what snapped me out of it?
42
Extreme desensitization.
43
It's a little difficult to live on a ranch out in the country with a bug phobia.
44
Especially in the Texas country where your neighborhood critters are wolf spiders, black widows, brown recluses, striped bark scorpions, a plethora of different wasps,
45
and my personal favorite, the Texas red-headed centipede.
46
Boy, do I have some stories about these guys.
47
Back when David was in middle school, he had a lot of fake bugs and toy critters that he would use to play pranks on Dad and our Grandpa.
48
He even one time put a toy snake under Dad's pillow.
49
You know, typical childhood mischief.
50
Well, one day David and Dad were in the kitchen.
51
Dad had made himself a plate of food and was walking into the living room to sit down in his favorite chair.
52
But when he got to the sofa, he noticed laying on the armrest was one of David's rubber bugs.
53
He rolled his eyes and said to David in the kitchen, Hey, come get this stupid toy centipede off the couch!
54
David looked up from what he was doing with a wide-eyed expression.
55
And without saying a word, he zipped out of the kitchen as fast as he could.
56
What the...
57
And that's.. when it moved.
58
David waited for five minutes hoping that that would be enough time,
59
but when he went back inside, the couch cushions had been thrown everywhere and a huge ruckus was happening underneath the dining room table.
60
BOOM!
61
BOOM!
62
BOOM!
63
BOOM!
64
BOOM!
65
BOOM!
66
BOOM!
67
BOOM!
68
BOOM!
69
Dad emerged from under the table like a battle-weary soldier.
70
The threat.. has been neutralized.
71
So here's a fun fact about Rachel she probably doesn't want me to tell.
72
She has a major aversion to small crawly things.
73
And there have been numerous times
74
when we both lived at the ranch where she would call
75
me on my phone yelling at me to come get a creepy crawly for her.
76
She even one time accidentally squished a gecko in her bedroom door at like midnight
77
and called me to come pick up the little gecko body for her.
78
with some sort of criminal underground contact who could get rid of the corpse for ya.
79
Well, she's had her own run-in with one of these centipedes that probably still haunts her to this day.
80
One night she and mom were in the living room watching TV and she got up to make a drink.
81
She hadn't taken two steps before seeing movement out of the corner of her eye.
82
She looked down and saw a giant centipede in the middle of the floor crawling directly at her.
83
And I kid you not, she screamed so loud that it made the centipede jump.
84
It may have scared her, but she scared it and it slithered under the couch to get away.
85
Meanwhile, I was hanging out in my room, minding my own business.
86
Yeah.
87
A centipede almost killed me and it ran under the couch!
88
Get your sorry height down here right now and do something about it!
89
Huh?
90
And I never found it.
91
Looked for a solid half hour, even moved the couch.
92
But that thing had disappeared into the shadows.
93
Welp, done all I could do.
94
Best of luck to you sis, be sure to check your bedsheets tonight.
95
Some people's naivete about bugs is funny to me and can make for great stories.
96
We have these insects in Texas called katydids, sometimes called bush crickets.
97
They're completely harmless, they're actually kind of stupid, they act like humans don't exist half the time, and they're mostly just annoying because they make a lot of noise, particularly at night.
98
But every now and then our area gets overrun with them during the summer, like you have to watch where you step, kind of overrun.
99
And one of their traits is they're very sticky.
100
You get one of these on the hood of your car and it doesn't matter how fast you're going down the highway, these bugs are like, DO YOUR WORST, POSEIDON!
101
Well one day, Mom and I were out and about and we decided to stop for lunch at a sandwich shop.
102
One of those that had big windows out front.
103
But when we walked in, a young woman whose table was right by the front door stopped us.
104
She had a fearful look on her face and she said, oh my gosh, maybe you didn't see it, but there's a huge bug on the front of your car.
105
Confused, we looked over at our car and seated right there on the hood was a Katie did just doing his thing.
106
We turned back to the woman and I said, oh yeah, that's a Katie did.
107
She said, I was just so scared that it was going to jump on you as you walked by.
108
You from out of town, honey.
109
We explained to her that they're super chill little doofuses and probably couldn't harm anyone even if they tried.
110
It was a fun opportunity to help educate a city kid.
111
You know, now that Charlie's here, I think it's appropriate to throw in a bonus story about him.
112
As I mentioned before, we had a lot of different species of wasps that made their home around our ranch.
113
Well, one day I was outside with Charlie in our breezeway just hanging out.
114
Suddenly, we both noticed a big red wasp sitting on the floor.
115
Still alive, but for some reason it had been grounded.
116
Charlie fearlessly went up to it and before I could stop him he slammed his nose right onto it.
117
He sniffed it, jerked his head back up with his ears perked, touched his nose to it again, pulled back again, and...
118
MOOOO!
119
I don't think the wasp flung his nose, I genuinely think he was just sounding the alert.
120
Wanted to make sure that everyone knew that the anger bee was right there.
121
You're a real funny one, my man.
122
That's cold.
123
And I don't like the cold, but the basic white girl thing that I do love is getting cozy.
124
And what a coincidence!
125
We're in cozy season finally and I've got a new collection of cozy items!
126
We have a hooded blanket that you can wrap yourself up in
127
that has a very clear message to everyone around the house.
128
Eh, maybe later.
129
Some extra warm socks that grip the floor and they're covered in potion bottles, mushrooms, and witch hats.
130
The velveteest lounge pants I have ever put on, I swear to God, with a beautiful potions brewing design.
131
A very stylish and warm sweater featuring Rubber Hose Toonbeka.
132
And speak of the devil herself, Rubber Hose Toonbeka has her very own plushie for you to cuddle with.
133
Not to mention these go perfectly with my new sketchbook.
134
I did a lot of work on this new video in that sketchbook.
135
I love it so much.
136
Get them while they're hot.

Para maximizar sua prática de shadow speak com este vídeo, é essencial prestar atenção ao ritmo e ao tom da narração. O apresentador utiliza uma linguagem leve e informal, o que torna a assimilação das expressões mais fácil. Sendo assim, aqui estão algumas dicas:
- Ouça várias vezes: Antes de tentar repetir, escute o vídeo algumas vezes para se familiarizar com a pronúncia e entonação.
- Repita em voz alta: Tente imitar a forma como o apresentador fala, prestando atenção aos sentimentos que ele transmite, especialmente em partes mais emocionais ou engraçadas.
- Faça pausas estratégicas: Pausa o vídeo em momentos onde o vocabulário novo é apresentado, e repita as frases em voz alta, tentando capturar a frequência e a inflexão.
- Grave sua prática: Gravar não apenas sua repetição, mas também suas reflexões após o vídeo pode ajudar a consolidar o aprendizado.
- Converse sobre o tema: Após assistir, tente discutir as informações do vídeo com amigos ou em grupos de estudo, utilizando o novo vocabulário que aprendeu.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
