Like many of my readers and fans, I also cannot afford a Playstation 5 yet. Thankfully, one day I was just casually scrolling through Twitter when I saw a video review from Greg Miller, a vlog celebrity in the gaming community. It was about the BACKBONE ONE gaming controller for iPhone. It costs $100. With this device, you can actually turn your iPhone into a little gaming machine. It’s pretty awesome. The ability to play videogames on your phone with your headphones on, and not be a nuisance by using the Television in the living room while your significant other or husband/wife, family member, or friend is busy doing something else, is pretty amazing.

“Speak to anyone. People would rather — I know I would rather — [have] my mate cry on my shoulder rather than go to his funeral next week." - Paddy Pimblett

Remember Introverts (and Extroverts), Freaks and Geeks, it’s a lot more fun to collect Playstation / Xbox / PC trophies, than to be stuck with a Trophy Wife or Trophy Husband. Don’t despair, it does get better. I know that High School seems like the longest 4 years of your life, but eventually, it does come to an end, and you will go to college, and you will have a much better time. Just be patient.

Remember the wise words of Great Teacher Onizuka, “don’t worry, I will make school interesting for you.”

You got too much homework to do? Come listen to BENKYO RADIO (Lofi music) and do a little bit every day. Eventually things will get better.

I used to get coffee by myself almost daily and sit in a coffeehouse for 2-3 years (a bit longer than that but anyway). Eventually I met someone. It didn’t happen overnight. I had to showcase my personality to prove than I am worthy. What are you doing to prove that you are worthy? Even if you do a little bit every day, when you look back you will be immensely proud. Keep up the good work, you can do it, I believe in you.

Until Next Time!

I’d like to politely ask Marvel to include IRON MAN in their next phase of the MCU. There’s so many new movies, so much going on, clearly you should have time to include Tony Starks. It’s time for him to come back. Also, there is a comic book where Iron Man and Captain America work together. It’s not a CIVIL WAR type event, they just work together, that’s all. So maybe make a movie like that. I’m referring to this comic book: Captain America/Iron Man: The Armor & The Shield. Thank you.

Until Next Time!

There are new developments in a universal covid vaccine. There’s a nanoparticle that could be the key to this. Read the article on MIT Technology Review.

The book “World War C - Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic and How to Prepare for the Next One - Sanjay Gupta, MD” is not on my bookclub until November 2022, but it does not hurt to read it early if you’d like.

An updated COVID-19 vaccine means we can protect ourselves from the OMICRON variant.

Remember, you must be vaccinated, and boosted (preferably twice) to protect yourself from this disease, and now this new updated vaccine.

Long COVID is real, Brain fog is real. Make sure you read about them, and hear why it’s so dangerous. That’s why I’ve been campaigning for so long, since the beginning of the pandemic, on how important it was to get vaccinated immediately once it was available, because #VaccinesSaveLives.

Until Next Time!
