And I think that's kind of a difference.

Look, I think she only knew what she knew.

Yeah.

I can't, I don't regret things in my life because ultimately they made me who I am and the lessons that I have learned today.

And I've also served my time and being punished and being held accountable and

repaired the harm, tried to do my best to repair the harm that I caused communities while I was doing it.

So like the Talia today goes that Talia, I need to care and love for her because she didn't know any better.

Okay.

And she did her best to like survive.

And my intentions weren't ever to hurt people.

But unfortunately, you know, that's part and parcel.

And, you know, I don't intend to hurt people now, but I definitely could.

And it's the same kind of concept.

It's not like you're intending to harm.

you know, and I've done my time for it.

So, yeah, I feel like and it's part of my story now.

It's part of why I do what I do and it also, you know, lends me credibility to talk about it and, yeah, like obviously the harm that's caused in community because of ice is horrific and people, you know, have lost lots because of it and probably no more so than the people who have used it.

Yeah.

And I've been judged.
