In order to calm the situation between Ukraine/NATO and Russia, I was in agreement with many Military personnel suggesting that Peace is the only solution to the conflict. Neither the United States nor Russia want M.A.D. so it’s ridiculous for both sides to pamper troop movement near the borders. Please watch the Carl Sagan video below. The Earth is a tiny pale dot in our Solar System, in our Galaxy, in our Universe. We have so many other problems to resolve. We need to fix Climate Change. I’ve been warning you that in the 2030s, Climate Change would be a huge conundrum. Well guess what, we’re in 2022, so that is only 8 years away. It’s so bad that eventually they may have to cancel the Winter Olympics because the snow is disappearing. C’mon now. Let’s act like adults. Let’s all work together. While you are arguing in Ukraine and Russian border, what do you think our Astronauts and Cosmonauts think of the situation? Don’t you think they think you’re all acting a little bit ridiculous? There’s a fucking red phone. Use it. Talk to one another. Why don’t you share some of your favorite TV shows or something? Why can’t the U.S. President and the Russian President play Mario Kart together or some shit? Just calm down. Don’t you realize scientists around the world are coming up with some great initiatives? Haven’t you become bewildered by how fast they came up with a mRNA vaccine for COVID-19? That means a potential cure for Cancer is on the horizon. That’s right, a fucking cure for cancer, on the horizon. Let’s make it happen. For my fellow fans of Quantum Computing, we’re getting even more closer to “The Theory of Everything” and surprisingly, it does include Electronic Dance Music, and other regular type of music. So if you are into music or musicians, get to work, because goddamn there are some wonderful stuff in there.

Until Next Time!

Intel Corporation has made a $20 Billion dollar (considered a megaproject) investment in Ohio, near Columbus, where I attended The Ohio State University, my Alma Mater. I have been extremely impatient. It has been 1,333 days since my last Intel Corporation paycheck. Do not test my patience any longer. In America, the stereotype is to sue for millions of dollars. I just want a job here in California, and a paycheck. Don’t give me that “you’re overqualified” bullshit. Some people have seen me mad. Trust me, you do not want to see me mad. Refusal will result in a full disclosure of the events of my 33rd birthday, causing in layoff and incarceration of numerous Intel Corporation staff and executives. Any attempt to intimidate either me, my former team, family, or friends will result in a full testimony divulging the “Back To the Future II” & “Bleach anime & manga” metaphors.

442 or Four-Four-Two is a tactic in Football (Soccer), and the name of the most popular magazine about Football in the world. I ordered a copy of the mag, and some asshole at the Post Office stole my magazine. I never received a copy. I’m still upset, but if I don’t receive my magazine and something bad happens to him, maybe he or she will be struck by Zeus, God of Thunder for stealing my magazine. If he is electrocuted, I won’t shed a tear. If he does apologize and give me my magazine, maybe God won’t smite him after all. The ball is in his court.

I don’t understand why people are so afraid of Trump. I mean, I can’t believe Bill Clinton’s infidelity ruined his career for about 10 years, and meanwhile, Trump causes over 600,000 deaths, and nobody gives a shit. What the hell is wrong with America? Don’t you agree with Howard Stern? Don’t you want to go back to normal? Do we have to live in these shitty conditions because 10% of the population refuses to get vaccinated? This is ridiculous. We can’t live the next 40 years like this (did you see South Park 4 COVID specials warning?) Maybe Trump’s secret incest lovechild story will finally be his downfall. We just can’t risk him running in 2024. We cannot have a White Nationalist in the White House.

While fans were upset that Sony lost $20 Billion dollar evaluation due to the Microsoft $69 Billion dollar purchase of Activision Blizzard, Playstation fans can stay calm. There are plenty of great games on their system. They assure that Call of Duty would stay on the Playstation platform which is good too. What’s good is that Microsoft can use those tools to build a great Metaverse, one that will be infinitely much better than Facebook’s Metaverse, which must not succeed, because Mark Zuckerberg is evil.

As I watch a handful of documentaries about the struggle of African-Americans, I find it imperative that VOTING RIGHTS LAWS are passed immediately. We have a lot of young Democrats who are angry as hell. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez can’t do this shit all by herself. We need to elect more REAL DEMOCRATIC SENATORS, not some fuckers who are bought by the mob such as Joe Manchin (The Penguin) and Sinema (Harley Quinn). I implore President Joe Biden and Vice President Harris to flex more muscle before Midterms 2022 because we are in quite the predicament here.

Until Next Time!

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 438 & BENKYO RADIO 438.

It’s imperative that Russia does not cause provocation in Ukraine. What’s the rush? What’s the big deal? Why does Russia need to mess with Ukraine? Russia has its own share of problems and troubles. Putin is just trying to change the topic, because he knows the people of Russia are living in harsh conditions, and are about to experience yet another terrible cold winter. The Soviet Union era is over. It’s time for Putin to take care of the Russian people, not invade another nation. People are starving in Russia. People want change in Russia. If Putin causes provocation in Ukraine, The United States including NATO will make absolutely clear that it wants Peace. It does not want war. The diplomatic approach is the ONLY solution to this crisis. Get your diplomats to argue over a nice game of chess, and stop dicking around with the security of the globe. Thanks for listening.

Until Next Time!
