What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 205, BENKYO RADIO 205, and LAMBDA/QUANTUM/GT/TECHNO RADIO 040.
Here I was driving past a Bass Pro Shops, and I remember the very first time I walked in that store many many years ago, I found one thing very striking. You see, as soon as I walked inside, I said to myself, “the only two black people in the entire store are cleaning the floor? There’s clearly something wrong with this picture.” You see, the BLM movement has had frustrations for many years, and many of us are unfortunately oblivious to this. You need to understand this. Remember one of my previous blog posts. The difference between pulled over when you are white or black. It’s striking and it’s sad. We must all come together. We must not let white nationalists stir the pot and keep fighting among us. It’s gotten bad. It’s gonna to a point where a few people don’t see the difference, and are not “motivated” enough to vote for Biden. Are you fucking serious? Can you imagine 4 more years of this non-sense with Trump? You heard the Bob Woodward tapes. Trump knew about COVID-19’s impact back in Jan/Feb, and did not do enough to prevent the 200,000 deaths. It’s unforgivable. I plea with you to please vote for Joe Biden / Kamala Harris. If you ever want to wake up from this nightmare, if you want to return to normalcy and the ability to simply walk the streets or go places without wearing a mask, we need to elect Joe Biden. He will bring a realistic track towards a vaccine. Listen to the adults in the room. Dr. Fauci is an adult. He knows that there’s no way a vaccine can be ready by November. He knows it’s on its way, but we all have to work hard. We will get this done by 2021. Stay strong. In the meantime, wear a mask, use social-distancing. Don’t forget to get your flu shot too, because it’s flu season, and the last thing you need to worry on top of COVID-19 right now, is the flu.
Until next time!
