What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 330 & BENKYO RADIO 330.
This blogpost has been redacted due to a polite request from the FBI & the CIA. I’m still very upset, but, hey, National Security.
All I can say is Mental Health is very important, and always check in with your friends and family who are struggling.
Throughout our country, there are young teenage boys who are bullied. Bullied by mean girls, bullied by other guys. They need role models. They need teachers who make education fun and exciting. Don’t you remember how frustrating school was when you were 14-18? Traumatized. I was traumatized. That’s why I take my GTO approach now. To understand other points of view, I am watching “Friday Night Lights” on Netflix now.
A few years ago, a Honduras Man called me a Faggot. I didn’t take it lightly. Now, Oracle executives are facing insider-trading allegations. His favorite Barcelona team is losing Messi. Honduras Drug Cartel got arrested.
As posted in a previous blogpost, I’ve said if anybody calls you a Faggot, you tell him that FAG backwards is GAF, or “General at the Air Force.”
Do not push my buttons. You’ve seen Naruto and what the Nine-Tails can do.
Best way to explain this is read the Bleach manga and watch the Anime. The next Presidential Elections are in 2024, and if we want AOC to win, to fight the evil forces who meddle with Elections, the Super PACs who tried to stop Nina Turner, the ones who fucked up Bernie Sanders’ win in IOWA…all of that shit, if we want Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to win in 2024, we really need to take it to the next level. I know sometimes I can seem extremely frustrating, but I am just Yoda. I work in mysterious ways.
Whether you are religious or not, please pray for our U.S. Troops who have one more month before the Pullout of Afghanistan. The next chapter will be very complicated, but right now, we need the fight the Military-Industrial-Complex. Too much money is spent on that and not back home, where we can spend it on Education. Let’s make school tuition-free. Let’s make Biden forgive student loans.
A very Happy 60th Birthday to Barack Obama, who taught me, when you’re a minority, you have to work 10 times as hard and are allowed very few mistakes. Unlike a white guy. I’m sorry but that’s the truth. Everybody got fucking upset at Obama for wearing a tan suit, but when Trump did his fucked up behavior for 2-4 years, he kept fucking up and fucking up, and people let him. The media was complicit. It’s because they were making money. Well, now we are in a pandemic. Over 600,000 dead. Because of bad leadership. Because of racism. It is so fucking frustrating when there’s a highly qualified black/brown man or woman, and he or she doesn’t get the job over a white guy in FUCKING SANDALS. Please look in the mirror, what happened on Jan 6th was the KKK. They act like they were “BLUE LIVES MATTER” but see what they did? They attacked police officers? Do you realize how Black/Brown people feel when they see that on the news? That’s why BLACK LIVES MATTERS.
We need a mediator. I read a tweet from a guy named Travis who had the best quote: “I want to see an episode of Undercover Boss with Jesus in some of these evangelical churches.” I mean c’mon y’all. If you pray to God for help, well, “God” gave you a vaccine. You do know when toddlers are young, you go to a pediatrician, and he or she gives your kid like 11 vaccination immunizations. Many years ago, we had plagues, the reason why we don’t have plagues is that we have vaccines! And now, we have a pandemic! To fight this pandemic, we use vaccines! Do you understand? Also, now with the mRNA technology, we might find a cure for Cancer and other diseases!
Now I just want to rest, read my copy of Computer Music & Future Music. 80Eighty is having a contest to win a GT-R. I pray to Jesus/Allah/Buddha that I win, even though it’s unlikely. Whether I win or lose, I’ll still always have a tuna sandwich here and there. RIP Paul. You are missed, every fucking day.
It’s All Gone Pete Tong is now available on YouTube. Please enjoy.
Remember, kids, if someone makes fun of your big ears, just say your ears are big like satellites because someday, it just might be true.
The new part of the Transformers trilogy is on Netflix! So excited!
