SPECIAL: Libs Think Christmas is Gay & Racist - Nightly Scroll with Hayley Caronia

29:32And then in 2023 under the Biden administration, when they were just the only thing that they were concerned with was DEI. Then Secretary of State Antony Blinken ordered the State Department to switch from Times New Roman to Calibri, a different font. So we're moving from a serif font to a sans serif font. And now with the Trump administration, we are going back to a reality. and the New York Times reported on this. They were the first ones to get this. And it said this, the change was meant to improve accessibility for readers with disabilities such as low vision and dyslexia and people who use assistive technologies such as screen readers.

30:23I mean, you've got to be kidding me. The State Department using Calibri font was supposed to help people with low vision? Like what? None of this makes sense to me. And if you have dyslexia, you have a hard time reading regardless. So like, I don't know. Does changing the font really help? Probably not. And who is this for? Is this so that the American people can read stuff that the State Department puts out? Or is this for people at the State Department? I don't know. I think it's for some useless employee who wants to do something and justify their position? I guess. Times New Roman is not hard to read.

31:09It's like one of the most standard fonts there is. And I posted this on X yesterday, but I think that if the Trump administration really wants to make some changes in the font department, they should make using Comic Sans MS punishable by death because that is the worst font I've ever seen in my life. It's horrible. I there was a restaurant in my college town and the menu was in Comic Sans and it's a great restaurant like great Italian restaurant and for whatever reason I could not get behind the fact that their menu had Comic Sans it was just like your your restaurant looks like a joke now it's like a kiddie font.

31:53I hate it. I hate it. Ban it. Ban it. Abolish it. Get rid of it. I hate Comic Sans and I hate Papyrus. Those are the fonts that I hate and I say. Opinions on Curls MT? Oh, I don't like Curls MT. I don't like Curls MT and I don't like Wingdings. No, don't donate on Wingdings. I love some Wingdings. the state department should make wingdings their new font yes that's now that's inclusive nobody can read it's retard friendly now nobody can read

32:37oh my gosh i'm so hung over like this isn't even funny and i'm laughing

32:46i'm struggling today guys anyway i'm gonna move now to a more serious topic um communications minister anika wells in australia announced that they are going through with a social media ban for children listen to this in one week australia will become the first country in the world to ban men under 16s from having social media accounts. With one law, we can protect Generation Alpha from being sucked into purgatory by predatory algorithms described by the man who created the feature as behavioural cocaine. Teenage addiction was not a bug, it was a design feature. And on 10 December, there are going to be withdrawal symptoms.

33:31Teenagers will be upset, some will fight to get back on, some will manage to find their way around the tech and keep their accounts. But I truly believe the short-term discomfort will be worth the long-term benefits. Every single parent who has talked to me about this since I've been the Minister for Communications has said, thank you, do not back down, and thank you for being the bad guy. Thank you for allowing me not to be the bad guy. Thank you for allowing me to say, this is against the law. The government has made this law. So I asked them to draw strength. They asked them to ask their child to write to me, if that would be of any assistance.

34:06I do video messages to transmit this message, whatever it takes. But I do not for a second think that this isn't worth doing. I love how she's like, the government is the bad guy. Yes, yes, they are. And parents are thanking the government for being the bad guy. It's just funny. But part of this social media ban is impacting 10 major social media platforms, TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, Reddit, Facebook. They have all complied saying that anyone in Australia who uses these platforms has to be 16 or older. And if you are 16 and under, you can't set up new accounts. This law, the government would require all of these social media platforms to remove accounts that were held previously by kids under 16 and it would prevent people from signing up.

35:03And if these platforms are caught with younger kids on them, they will face fines to up to$49.5 million if they do not comply. That's a lot of moolah for these companies to have to cough up for every kid under 16 that is caught on these platforms. Now, it's supposed to encourage kids to actually get to talk to each other, get outside, be social, not digitally social, but literally social in the regular sense of the word that we all grew up with. And I can get behind that. That is a nice sentiment. But unfortunately, the cat is already out of the bag. I mean, if I grew up on social media. Kids now are certainly growing up on social media and they're not stopping.

35:53These kids are way more digitally minded and social media savvy than the people in the government trying to shut this down. And, you know, Anika Wells projected that kids are going to bypass this ban and they've already started to do that. If there's a will, there is a way. And like I said, these kids are smarter than these platforms anyway. So kids are using dog photos, VPNs, and fake IDs, how Australian teens are beating the social media ban. And this is literally the day that the ban went into effect. So they are already, they knew that the ban was coming. They've already figured out ways to get around it.

36:32So they're doing that by using their parents' accounts. So their parents already had social media accounts. Kids are just going to log on and use their parents' accounts, or they have their parents start new accounts for them. So the parent can just start a second account, say that it's their second account, and then the kids can use them, okay? So that's one easy way to bypass this. Then other kids are using their parents or older siblings' faces for facial recognition. So if they are setting up an account and then they say, hey, big sister who's 18, let me use your face to be able to log in for this, that's one way to get around it.

37:10Then a lot of these kids are starting new accounts with fake birthdays because I guess there's when you sign up for a social media platform, it just asks you what your birthday is. It doesn't ask for proof. So kids are just doing that. They are using VPNs to bypass the ban saying that they're in another country. I got a VPN, ExpressVPN to be exact, promo code scroll. and I did that because I thought when the TikTok ban was going to go into effect, I would just say that I was in Canada or wherever wasn't going to ban TikTok. Didn't end up having to do that, but again, this is what kids in Australia are doing.

37:48Some girls are just using filters to age their faces or they're putting makeup on to look older for those facial recognition. they're buying adult looking mesh face masks on T-Mail so they are going on you know these budget sites and they're getting masks that look older and they're getting into these social media sites in some cases kids are even using pictures of their dog to verify their identity because some of the technology on these social media platforms isn't built to recognize dogs faces So that's another way that they're getting around it. It's just totally ridiculous. And it is undeniable that social media has negative impacts on people.

38:31Undeniable. I'm addicted to my phone. It's bad. It also has positive impacts on people. And I don't think that kids should be on social media at all. But is it the government's place to put a rule like this in place? We say this all the time in our country that we don't want the government parenting our kids. That is the job of parents alone, not woke teachers, not the government. And clearly, parents and kids are fooling the government anyway, and they're still making the decisions for their families. So this is useless. It's just useless. This next one, though, you know, with the rise of AI, it's just a little scary.

39:16I don't like the AI videos. I don't like the I mean, sometimes they're funny. But, you know, Gavin Newsom putting the AI video of Trump in handcuffs. It's like, all right, now we have, you know, it's just it's getting to a point. Right. And then they're getting so good now. Like, AI videos are getting so good. I saw this. I was going to play it on the show and then I forgot. But there was this video of Will Smith eating spaghetti that was put together by it was AI and they did it in 2023 and it was really bad like he looked crazy there was all these issues with the video like you could tell that it was fake and then they used AI in 2025 to recreate that video of Will Smith eating spaghetti and it looked very real so it's getting a little scary and I think in in the world of news and and media and new media yeah this is this is it so here's the original Will Smith video 2023.

40:15This is what an AI video was. You would just say, I want to see Will Smith eating spaghetti and it looks like claymation or something. And now in 2025, it's much more detailed. I mean, it's not perfect. You could still tell that like something is wrong with it, but it's way better than this. He looks like Sid the Sloth from Ice Age in this video. So I don't know. But the CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, he went on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and he said that he uses ChatGPT, he uses AI, and he uses it to raise his kids. Watch. And do you use ChatGPT when raising your baby? I do. I mean, I feel kind of bad about it, because we have this genius level at everything, intelligence, sitting there, waiting to unravel the mysteries of humanity.

41:10And I'm like, why does my kid stop dropping his pizza on the floor and laughing? Yeah. So I feel like I'm not asking a good enough question. But it is, I cannot imagine having gone through, like figuring out how to raise a newborn without Chattopathy. Clearly, people did it for a long time, no problem. Yes. but yeah so i know like it's yep people did do that because we have natural instincts and you can also ask your parents um but this is like it kind of reminds me of google and how you know people used to get from point a to point b before getting the address online or they were using maps. They weren't using their phones, right?

41:53And I did a study in college or I did a paper on a study in college called the Google effect. And it is really scary how used to technology our brain gets. And basically the Google effect says that because we know that Google is there, our brains don't remember anything anymore. Your brains will remember some things, but your brain will remember them more if you Google them multiple times. And you almost know, your brain knows not to memorize these things because it doesn't have to. It's like wasted brain capacity and wasted brain space because you know that you could always just go to Google and Google will always be there and then the answer is there.

42:42So you don't need to like waste brain space memorizing these things, which is scary to think about because that was Google that's been around for decades to think of how reliant we've gotten on Google because I'm thinking well if I don't know the answer to something I'll just Google it how is that any different from people using AI instead of Google they're using chat GPT instead of Google it's like a an alternative right so a newer even smarter, probably alternative. So, you know, when he was using that example, my, I, yeah, I'm raising my kid and I couldn't imagine raising him without chat GPT.

43:20It's kind of like saying, I couldn't imagine raising my kid without Googling stuff whenever I have a question. And that's kind of normal. Like if you put it into that perspective, like it's really not that crazy. Although he said in that video that he was questioning why his kid dropped his pizza. Unnecessary question. I mean, it does. It sounds infinitely more dangerous for the parents than it does the kids. The kids are still getting an answer in the short term, at least. Right. But the parents are now losing, losing this natural, instinctive. But then the kids are never the kids are never going to live in a world that doesn't have AI.

43:59No, for sure. And the long term is definitely more detrimental to kids but in the short term in these early years like learning how to parent is a very valuable skill as well right and it's completely gone right and people people used to use books right they what to expect when you're expecting and and all these other books that people read when they're you know having a baby okay now people are just googling questions that they have well there's no you can't find in the parenting book why did my kid throw a pizza at the wall right you're not gonna get a dissertation on why your kid dropped a pizza like you would from AI.

44:30Yeah. But why do you even need to know that your kid just dropped something? Like it's no big deal. Correct. But I mean, it's the fact that he's even asking the question is pretty kind of dumb. But so I'm going to get a little conspiratorial here because I'm thinking of how reliant people are on AI and it is very scary. And because I just talked about the Google effect where like our brains have actually changed and adapted to having access to the internet. How are our brains and bodies going to adjust to having AI? And AI, we just saw in that video from 2023 to 2025, has gotten so much more advanced.

45:11When you talk to ChatGPT instead of Google, like Google doesn't know you really. I mean, it could take your data and know some certain things about you, but people aren't talking to Google like a friend. People are creating relationships and rapport with their AI chatbot where your AI knows when you're joking. Your AI knows when that guy is being sarcastic and he does videos asking his AI stupid questions. Like they it's way more intuitive. And I wonder, are we going to get to a point where our brains are going to regress so much that we will need AI to operate on our behalf? Because I'm thinking about kids in college.

45:58Like, they're not even writing papers anymore. So then it's like, over time, like, this isn't going to happen overnight, but over time, people aren't going to be able to write, sit down and write 10-page papers. Is that, like, a totally necessary skill? I'm not sure. but it's interesting to think of like how our brains and our bodies are going to adapt not for the better we're going to be useless without technology we're going to be completely useless without ai and basically we're going to like need robots like neo to do stuff for us like people are going to stop doing things because they have ai or robots or something to rely on and It's just very scary.

46:38Anyway. It's Wally. Wally is. It is. Yeah. Yeah. We're all going to be fat and in floating chairs and telling little robots to do our bidding. Who knew it was a documentary? It was a documentary. Yeah. It's scary. Quick little update here in Florida. There is a stretch of road in Palm Beach that is going to be named after President Trump, which I think is pretty cool. West Palm Beach city leaders, they came together and they are going forward with plans to rename. It is a four mile stretch of Southern Boulevard and it is going to be called President Donald J. Trump Boulevard. And it's very fitting because this is from Palm Beach International Airport all the way to Mar-a-Lago, the Winter White House.

47:26So all the way to his residence, President Donald J. Trump Boulevard. I love it. Very fitting. I love it. All right, let's get into some scrolling time.

47:52All right, well, this guy, he's living in Hawaii. and I thought that Hawaii was super woke but apparently not this guy walks around his neighborhood with a Trump shirt on and this is the response that he's been getting watch morning good morning

48:13morning seems to be pretty cordial morning man good morning no no golf today just a driving range how many miles you doing this morning yeah good for you man that's awesome hey what's up brother good to see you man morning hey thank you dang i thought that all trump supporters were evil nazi bigots but apparently this guy can wear his trump hat and his trump shirt and walk all around town and he's just he's the mayor he's the mayor so i love to see it i there are some other videos of people who walk around in trump hats and maybe they're in i don't know less conservative areas and they're not treated with such respect but I thought that was pretty cool this next one is a video of someone in a self driving car she's joking this is a Tesla she's joking that she had a tough long shift and thankfully she has the self-driving option to drive herself home watch thank God for my self driving Tesla because how the F was I going to drive home after that night shift and you could see her in the front seat and she's seemingly passed out.

49:35I don't have a Tesla. Do you guys, you don't have Teslas anymore? I don't have a Tesla, but my car has lane assist and adaptive cruise. Okay. And my eyes have definitely shut for longer than they should have on the highway.

49:51Wow. Don't admit that. I didn't admit that. No, I'm just kidding. People, I mean, this, this happens to people obviously. And I'm not saying minutes, like this is like three seconds. and I wake up and come to. Right. Yeah. Yeah, I have lane assist, which I like. I don't have, I don't think I have that other thing. What did you say? The adaptive cruise where just the cruise control doesn't run in the car in front of you. Sure you do. I don't think so. If you have lane assist, you have adaptive cruise. Really? For sure. I don't know. There's a lot of buttons in my car that I don't know what they do.

50:23Yeah, like the wiper fluid. Yeah, wiper fluid. I needed my oil change. I was like, this is too much. but someone in the comment section of this tiktok video said that people who do not own teslas here's a fact for you after four strikes your eyes not being on the road phone in your hand sleeping something like that an automatic emergency light and stop will happen and you are no longer able to use this self-driving feature for the rest of the day so four strikes you're out so basically if you close your eyes i wonder for how long but also if you're in a self-driving mode in your car, you should be able to like close your eyes or look off the road or text or something.

51:09Then what's the, if you have to be like attentive, then you might as well just drive. Like what is the purpose of self-driving if you have to be paying attention and alert on the road? Yeah. I mean, I don't know what the, the price is. There's a subscription for that full self-driving but whatever it is it's not worth it if I still have to drive right then what's it just drive like what like your foot's tired I don't get it like what like I don't know like how does it really help you if you still have to be you know you can't be texting you can't be sleeping and your eyes have to be on the road you just like sit you don't have to put your hands up.

51:47Like, I don't know. I don't get it. It's just dumb. Again, I I'm not for self-driving. I think that that's crazy. I would never get into a Waymo or any self-driving car, not doing it. Ask me in 30 years and I'll probably have a self-driving car or something. But as of right now, I'm, I'm not, I'm not for it. All right. Uh, art Basel took place in Miami, big art festival. and this artist created Jesus Christ out of wine corks and also wine openers. Very cool. Look at this. I've been saving corks for like the last 10 years. So I have like giant bags of corks. So the crown on Jesus' head is made out of the corks.

52:34I love what you did. It's very, very cool. And I love that you put the openers too. I was like the thorns. And the corks are just different colors. maybe she burned some of the corks some burn or paint yeah burn or paint and uh and made jesus's face out of that so that's very cool um i saw some other ones some really interesting because i don't know i associate art basil with the banana that was taped on the wall like just stupid art installations that are not thoughtful and not don't require any talent but then i saw some very cool ones like this one and i i just thought i would share All right, let's get into blind reactions.

53:13Guy, I got here and I had these on my table, my desk here. Three, two, one. And I said, what is this? And Guy said, well, they're for blind reactions. And I said, do I have to read them now or do I read them on the show? And he said, read them on the show. Oh, so do I do one, two, or three first? One, that's duh. I didn't know if it were like three, two, one blast off or what. we'll start with one. Denzel Siggers is a 27-year-old former Navy medic from Atlanta. He says he went from 5 '5 to 6 '1 in a painful height augmentation surgery performed in Turkey for over$81 ,000. So he added what, six inches to his height?

54:06okay here's the tmz interview with this this fellow huff long procedure and recovery and all so why did you do it it's just something i've always wanted since i was a kid you know all the men in my family were taller so i decided to do it for myself as well you decided to do it for yourself you obviously looked into this procedure am i correct with the way i'd always heard it Not that I was looking into it, but the way I'd always heard it was that it was three inches that they could add. You have found a way to add seven. Seven inches. No, eight. Eight? It was 5 '5", and now it's eight. Eight inches.

54:45How did you do that? The three inches come from the upper legs over in Turkey, which is why I did it in Turkey. They do upper and lower because lower is highly recommended against. they break the bone and they put a rod in between the bone and you stretch the you stretch the rod which stretches the bone out over a period of time which takes about three months per surgery so the first one I did was three months the second idea was three months everything stretches together which accounts for the loss of mobility and all these different things because your muscles are stretched past their normal limits so you just regain muscle you're 6 '1 now.

55:27Are there any limitations, side effects to any of this that are still kind of dogging you? No, I haven't had any issues. I'm fully recovered. Whoa. This is a crazy thing to do. Listen, girls have boob jobs and whatever else. People go to Turkey for hair transplants. I am totally cool with people getting something if they really hate something about themselves. Like if they're really, really, um, you know, they hate something, they hate their nose. Like, okay, go fix it. You know, but adding eight inches to your height and his bones have to grow now around this rod and he's, he's got to grow like, well, this is Frankenstein.

56:15Here's the fun part. It wasn't eight inches, but I did this.

56:23no you didn't i did but it wasn't cosmetic i had i broke my leg when i was a kid there's the short story and the leg grew too long so i had uneven legs and so i lengthened the other one interesting and did it really hurt this i mean in and out it's obviously surgery it's not a non-invasive surgery so i mean but it's the same process they stick a rod down the middle of the leg attached to the top and bottom break the bone in the middle and then three times a day you stick a big magnet that turns a screw in the rod and pushes the the two halves of the bone apart and they slowly grow together and did it did the process hurt like the actual lengthening yes no and there's there's like some weakness and it's not not painful but the actual lengthening part is is not i was expecting you to be like i went to turkey no no no there's actually experts in palm beach there's a guy the specialist in palm beach wow he didn't even have to go to turkey This guy spent$81 ,000.

57:18And eight inches is unreal. That's unreal. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah. Wow. Technology. That's something. That is something. All right. Let's do number two. And this says, Chloe Kardashian got flirty in the comment section of California school teacher Jacob Meyer's social media post, and now the educator is shooting his shot with a viral response. Okay. Shoot your shot. So since my post kind of blew up and your comment went a little viral, my entire town knows about it. My students keep bugging me about it and my family group chat's just been non-stop. I figured, why not shoot my shot? This Saturday, I have a staff holiday party and I would absolutely love if you came as my date.

58:01If you can't make that work, then maybe Chris can add me to your holiday party. But in all seriousness, I'm going to be in Southern California during winter break and I would absolutely love to hear how the rest of your day went. Wow, shoot your shot. He's very handsome. I don't know how old he is. Khloe Kardashian is how old? Khloe Kardashian. She is 41 years old. She's divorced. She's been single for a while. I love it. I think she needs, I like Khloe Kardashian. Out of all the Kardashians, she's very funny. And I always thought that she was kind of a breath of fresh air on the show. She's, she's just, she's got a good personality and, um, I want her to be happy and find love.

58:52So maybe it's the school teacher. She doesn't need money. Okay. So this is on the left is Lamar Odom, her first husband. And then was she married to Tristan Thompson? I don't believe so. They had, I think they had a baby true. Um, Khloe Kardashian, but he was cheating on her. Lamar Odom was also They're cheating on her and doing drugs and stuff. So she hasn't really had the best luck. I think this school teacher would be. She seems to have a type though. She does have a type, but this guy is handsome. And I think she obviously doesn't need money. So I think this would be a good option for her.

59:30Break the spell, you know? I think it would be good. I think it would be good for her. Okay, last blind reaction here. during a jump in queensland australia a skydiver's reserve parachute accidentally deployed and snagged on the wing flap of a cessna caravan aircraft at approximately 15 000 feet this sounds like a nightmare

1:00:09what happened i mean he's just it's he's stuck on the his parachute is stuck on the wing of the airplane he's just hanging there

1:00:20i am so what happened

1:00:26I'm no skydiving expert, but I believe every person has two chutes. Yeah, but if your chute is stuck to the... You cut the cord. Oh. Or cut or the quick release handle or whatever it is. That is horrifying. I would never in a bajillion years go skydiving. I have not one adrenaline junkie bone in my body. There is nothing... Like, I want my feet firmly planted on the ground. I don't even want... I've been snorkeling once. I would never go scuba diving. Like, there's a limit. this. I'm not boring, but I want my feet firmly planted on the ground when I do fun things. I went parasailing once. It was fine.

1:01:06Indoor skydiving? Oh, and those like weird tubes and you like fly around. That would be embarrassing. So no, I wouldn't want to do that. No. All right. I had some questions in here that I'm going to answer quickly and then we'll we'll get going. So someone asked me on Instagram, my biggest pet peeve. They said, you know, they were asking me what my biggest pet peeve is. And I have a lot and I had a hard time actually coming up with them in the moment. But I feel like I should just have a growing list on my phone and keep track of them. But I really, I hate when people say Reese's pieces. I've already covered that on the show.

1:01:52I hate when people are slow, when they're slow walking, slow driving. Don't like that. I've already talked about this on the show. I don't like when people are slow to deplane. I don't like when people are talking on their phone or listening to videos and they don't have AirPods in. And I hate when you go out to dinner with like a big group of people and then people start the check comes and then people are like oh well I only had one drink and you had two and then I had that bothers me like especially if you're out with friends it's like we're friends I'll get you next time don't worry about it you get a drink here I'll get the next one I'm very just like chill about it so nickel and dimers bother me someone asked me are you Italian?

1:02:38Um, yes, but only a little bit like my last name's Italian. Um, but I'm Italian, Irish, English, German, Scottish, just like white, basically a bunch of white. Yeah. Um, someone asked what part of your golf game are you happy with? My driver is great. I can hit a great tee ball and then things start going south for me. So, you know, I'm happy with the drive, but I haven't played in a while and it gets very expensive in Florida to play now because all the snowbirds come down and, you know, all the prices get hiked up. So I probably won't play golf for a little bit, but oh well, maybe I'll just like go to the range and try to get better.

1:03:24Someone asked me what the worst job I've ever had was. I've never had a bad job in my life. I've never had a job that I didn't like. I taught tennis and was a camp counselor when I was, you know, in high school and college. I babysat. I loved that. I started interning in local news. I liked that. I worked at Fox. I liked that. I worked at Newsmax. I liked that hosting the show. I liked, I've never not liked a job. So never had a bad job. And then someone said, what is your favorite Christmas season activity. And that would have to be driving around and looking at people's Christmas lights. And if it's nighttime and they have their lights on and I can see inside their house to see what their Christmas decorations are inside, I will also be looking at that.

1:04:09So peeping Haley around Christmas season. All right. Thanks for scrolling along with me. You can follow me on social media at Haley Karania on X, TikTok, Instagram, whatever truth social and um i'll see you right back here tomorrow bye
