Oh that’s right, he was poorer then. As we remember, why does nobody #MeToo homeless men? Because it’s all about money. Don’t trust someone who shits the bed. PS.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1048 & BENKYO RADIO 1048. Now, there is a new story in the ‘Like a Dragon’ Gaiden series entitled “The Man Who Erased His Name.” As mentioned in a previous YouTube video, I was so excited when I installed this latest game and was about to get started for Christmas Day. IMAGINE MY BIG SURPRISE when the first game in this series was launched in 2005. This mythology is over 18 years old. I have to start from the beginning and I have a long journey, there are 23 games, with nine of them being part of the mainline series, some are spin-offs. I hope some of you will join me along for the ride.

PS. The U.N. Security Council called for another ceasefire in Israel/Palestine, and everybody is for this, except for the U.S. Veto. The entire planet are in the streets protesting for the rights of Palestinians, and fanatic forces of Zionism are against Peace. The Pope even called Netanyahu a terrorist.
PPS. Netanyahu was also the MOSSAD agent who was involved in the planning of 9/11 and the diabolical plan of 343 dead firefighters (prime factorization of 343 is 7x7x7 aka jackpot) and its subsequent $1 trillion #MilitaryIndustrialComplex without repairing Afghanistan, while Germany and Japan were rebuilt to great technology after WW II. This story will be told in the Loose Change documentary version 3. This is the longest investigation by INTERPOL. America has refused to declassify this information until the year 2051, a time where we might all be dead from #GlobalWarming and #ClimateChange.

Until Next Time!

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1047 & BENKYO RADIO 1047. Here is a retrospective on the X-Files for its 30th Anniversary. I have some excellent news: they have announced a remake of the series. I cannot wait. As you may know the story of Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, they have both worked at the FBI Bureau for DECADES, only to realize things were part of an elaborate conspiracy, in similar fashion, Robert S. Mueller III tried his best to impeach Trump and place him in prison, the world around him did not listen, and the fucking idiot at the NSA (John Bolton) with the mustache refused to stand by the FBI (and therefore, John Bolton is complicit), and instead waited a couple of months to sell his stupid book. Next thing you know, we became stuck inside a nightmare where Trump’s stupidity caused the deaths of 600,000 Americans from COVID-19 by telling them not to get vaccinated and not wear masks, even though Donald Trump himself was vaccinated (at the time, it was 600,000 deaths, eventually it was 1,000,000 deaths from COVID-19). Trump is essentially guilty of essentially flying a plane into the WTC every week for months. Do you get the picture? Do I have your undivided attention? Good. Fuck your #MAGAcult, Trump is a terrorist. Now, what do you think about this Trump TV charade for the past couple of years? I suggest you cut the bullshit, remove Trump from the ballot in 2024, shut the fuck up, and let me play Like a Dragon Gaiden series in peace. Thank you in advance.

Until Next Time!

There was some good climate news in 2023. Really. [MIT Technology Review]

Business Insider has been banned from this blog for the time being

As #COP28 looks to ditch language on phasing down and phasing out fossil fuels, it’s time to take stock of what this means for the environment movement. It’s time for Western activists to wake up to why the call to phase out fossil fuels was doomed to fail due to a fundamental failure of the call itself.

Here at the COP28 summit in Dubai, I’ve been working with delegates from a range of developing nations – the Gambia, Ghana, Nigeria, Chad, Mali, and Malaysia to name just a few. Overwhelmingly, they tell me that the fundamental problem with the fossil fuel phase-out call is that, for them, it’s meaningless.

The focus, then, has to shift. Instead of focusing on dismantling the incumbent system, we need to focus on accelerating the deployment of the new system that will replace it (both in terms of technological transformations across key sectors, as well as related socio-economic transformations): because that’s the only way that demand for oil and gas can be eliminated.

Ultimately, the conversation needs to change to how we phase out fossil fuel demand. Because it’s demand that keeps producers in business.

As always, the Obama Foundation does great work for the future of our nation, especially when it is under attack by the #MAGAcult invasion. Now more than ever, while Biden has trouble understanding the ramification of standing by Netanyahu, the Butcher, the Barbarian, the person who caused a Genocide in Palestine, Obama has to get in a room with Bush, Clinton, and Biden, and say, look, guys, are you going to let America get taken over by Trump and his fourth reich over here? Are you fucking serious? Wake the fuck up. We have to think about Presidential Elections 2024. VP Harris is the front-runner. Will Biden stay in the equation?

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1040 & BENKYO RADIO 1040. Now, as you are aware if you are a fan or supporter of me, you are fully aware of what happened to me. I waited 17 years for a cup of coffee with a woman who did not show up and explain herself. The day she did not come, she said she was in the shower. I basically became one of the most important man in the entire industry of Technology and Music, and nobody dared tell me what happened. Everybody acts like she never existed. Then what happens, a woman with the same name is a spokesperson at the State Department. What happens to me? I have a crush on her as well. What the fuck happens? It was a ruse and she was a white nationalist. Who was the woman I was in love with? You might as well call her Lust. Her bestfriend for over 20 years knew I asked what the fuck happened to her, and she refused to utter a single word about her. I essentially invented SPACE FORCE, and she still did not say anything. I became so fucking frustrated, to me, she is dead and they uploaded her memories and I can only see her inside a video game called CYBERPUNK 2077. She’s also (spoilers) the terrorist in Death Stranding. There was a fucking SUPERNOVA who almost broke the atmosphere (our High School Senior Newspaper website was created by me, I called it FBZ [FRENCHBIGZ] GOES SUPERNOVA), and still, nobody wants to me where happened to her. I hate (almost) everybody from High School for doing this to me, except Keisha Box aka Beyoncé. This is a goddamn conspiracy, and it’s so messed up that they have to tell that story into the next Deus Ex, Deus Ex 3, Adam Jensen trilogy completed. Illuminatis (think about how much money billionaires made during the pandemic) exist on our planet, and we will expose them, just like when I proved (and others did) that MOSSAD did 9/11. Important to note that after 17 years of waiting for that cup of coffee, I said FUCK THIS, and basically became a superhero.
