To get them to agree with you, but to get them to understand where you're coming from. And I think a lot of people argue to try to change other person's mind. I'm like, you won't disappoint yourself. Like, half the time a person, even if you have changed their mind, they have too much pride to admit it. So, you know, it's not really about that. It's about understanding each other. I think after playing a prosecutor, do you have a different perspective on how justice works? That was. That's so long. But, yeah, in a way. In a way I do. I think. I mean, some people are really good at their jobs. Some people aren't. And I think, for me, the perspective is really interesting because I learned a lot about how, you know, all this gets rolled out and the research that you do and a little bit about law. And so I guess I would say I have a different perspective. Yeah. Now, last time you were up here, we were talking about social media, and you said at one point it was getting to you and it was pissing you off at times as that released it all. Oh, yeah. So you don't let that affect you at all? No, not at all. No. I don't care. You unplug. You be like, after Internet, you know. Well, yeah. And then partially, too. It just doesn't bother me like it used to. Yeah. You know, it used to, like, really hurt my feelings, but now I'm just like, this is. This has nothing to do with me. You know, when somebody's saying something, a lot of the times it has to do with things that they've been through, their own trauma. And unfortunately, when you're in the public eye, like I heard you talking about earlier with the bathing suit, it's like, unfortunately, when you're in the public eye, to some degree, people think that you're a punching bag, you know? Right. And a lot of what they're doing is projecting the own issues, their own things, you know, and it has really nothing to do with you. So the more that you free yourself of that and then think about the people, they talking. They talking about everybody talking about Beyonce talking about, right. Like this. I'm in good company, you know, Jesus, come back right now, they'll get on his ass about something, everything. It took so long. Why you took so long to get it right. Think about that. Is you did a. I think a yoga video. Yeah. And then I think a day later, they made it. Maybe this was. Wasn't AI. It was AI. They made an AI of Jonathan grabbing up one of the dudes because he said hi to you or something like that. O. It was weird. I'm like. I'm like, y', all, we here for that. Y' all so weird for that. I laughed at it because I was like, that's not even what he was wearing that day. And his shirt wasn't off. He. He's very shy. I was like, nah, that ain't it. But it was funny, though, when you was just walking through the field. Oh, baby. I was like, that wasn't no damn AI. That was real. And that went viral. That was. I mean, that went so viral. And did people just talking about how beautiful you are and the essence of you, like, that had to feel good to see the other side of it, because I saw that part. I saw people being like, yo. And it looked like the men on the field forgot why they was there. Hold up. Wait a minute, girl.
