And so I was. And they're like, that's just, I'm not, they're like, I'm not a good, like, I don't know how to build or make things, like, they're like, I'm just, my brain doesn't work that way. So I started thinking about it. And what happens if the prison system, we just figured out what you were really, they're really bad at it. […]
