What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1168 & BENKYO RADIO 1168. As you may know by know, I was personally responible for leading the petition to bring back the BMW M5 Touring back to America. It was available in Europe, including the UK, but not in North America. Now, by the power of the BMW CEO in Germany, it is available in USA, starting this Christmas. I would love to own this vehicle. Let’s hope they continue this series from BMW M on YouTube. I cannot afford one at the moment, but if my future employer hands me a paycheck, surely I may be able to.

PS. If you are a man and you are worried about your testosterone levels, JOCKO sells pills that are legal. I bought some in case of emergency. Let’s just say that huge amount of Soy/Almond Milk/Oat milk in my coffee seriously is turning all of our men’s feminine side a little too strong. Let’s turn the dial a little bit back with some LACTAID milk in our coffee, which has zero growth-hormones nor Estrogen. I love women, I don’t mind my feminine side, but at the end of the day, I am a Man, Goddamnit, Baristas, don’t you dare try to mess our minds like that. Thanks in advance.

Dark Matter & Dark Energy [NASA] Is that supposed to be a joke, Jean-Marc? How much power do you wield? You better recognize that #NuclearFusion was invented thanks to my JETLAG RADIO podcasts

Blogging/Writing as we speak, very difficult topic. Post is not late. Something tragic could have happened (in the future, now in the past) due to Netanyahu’s evil atrocities. I had to essentially go back in time, to prevent another genocide, the statistics would have gone double or triple the amount of the 34,000 dead Palestinians there currently are since October 2023.

There is now, my IRON MAN funko, a Planet Earth stress ball, and a Falcon Captain America funko. It is now the responsibility of both of us that the entire world does not get destroyed, because Netanyahu has gone to war with 6 arab nations within a few days, which was completely and utterly stupid, almost launching WW3 over his tiny strip of “Holy Land,” which is barely as big as Luxembourg. No wonder INTERPOL is investigating him.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1167 & BENKYO RADIO 1167. This is an expanded edition with even more articles, from My Setlist of articles content curation that starts with “The Economist” and more, and the other setlist that starts with “Slashdot.org” and more. As always, a #TwoStateSolution for Palestine and Israel is the ideal solution for the region. There is no reason why this should be delayed. It has been over 74 years of oppression. There is only one entity, maybe a few more entities, and I am not talking about tities, but entities, or singular entity, and that is the United States Air Force, which has a rich history of 76 years. The only organization with the ability to go 2 steps above and beyond any other adversary, and recently had to learn how to move 3 steps above, thanks to Alphabet’s Google’s DeepMind AlphaGO, which was the computer who defeated the best GO player in the world, the most difficult battle simulation in war, while Chess is what Americans and Russians utilized, as a sign of respect for American-Chinese relations, we must learn the game of GO. Listen, Bordel (French expression), this conflict no longer needs to go any longer, it’s been over 74 years, we cannot cry about the genocides of the past, if they come back to the present and the future. Over 34,600 dead Palestinians and over 80,000 injured is an atrocious number. Computer simulations expect even more terrible statistics. Diplomats, from America, from France, the rest of Europe, Asian diplomats, diplomats from Arab League and Persian place, this is a farce. Everybody in the United Nations building in New York are basically all sitting down, everybody has to pee or go number two, and they’re all thinking the same fucking thing, how in the flying fuck is THE UNITED NATIONS, over 194 countries (LAMBDA/QUANTUM/GT/TECHNO RADIO 194) and the number of countries within INTERPOL, cannot go toe to toe to one single individual, Netanyahu, a butcher, a monster who eats babies. A man whose list of crimes are worst since WW2 Nazism. If you cannot get Netanyahu on corruption, on genocide, what the fuck can I get him on? Can we impeach him for fucking an intern then? We have to do something soon, before I turn into Godzilla, and call Kong, and we’re going to personally “take care” of Netanyahu ourselves. This conflict has lasted long enough, we are NOT going to let him to go to war with Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, all at the same fucking time, and set fire to the entire Palestinian Territories, especially what we all know, nobody mentioned the West Bank recently, why? Because the “West” used the #MilitaryIndustrialComplex as a BANK-system, which is paid with American Taxes. This what we all feared, what was in Top Secret documents. AIPAC was the worst thing that happened to American Politics, they control Washington D.C., which is why the FBI, Robert Mueller III wrote his impeachment report, 448 pages, 4 ZIonist Jews, Illuminatis, control EVERYTHING. From 9/11 and MOSSAD involvement, to unnecessary going to Iraq, to not finding UBL in Pakistan and waiting 10 years to grab him, to Dick Cheney still alive even though he made the Air Force wait 10 minutes to stop those hijacked planes. Secrets so dangerous, the security clearance does even have a name. It’s above secret, and top secret, not even a Q-clearance. They call it a BEYOND Top Secret clearance, and hold off to your horses, there’s Secret, Top Secret, Q, and 50 levels above, then there’s BEYOND Top Secret, which includes the full-declassified 9/11 commission report (guess who worked on commission, not car dealerships, but the military-industrial-complex), why the war on terror and suicide bombers were eradicated when the blowjob was introduced to the middle east, and even more embarassing concepts where there were weapons which were created with a $50K budget which could defeat a $1million weapon (Advance Warfare). Anyway, moral of the story, NATO, American Troops are busy with Ukraine goddamnit, they’re crying over another Sudan conflict, and millions of other problems, stuff I just realized, like when your spouse wants your attention for more than 46 minutes to watch a tv show, and you try to put your phone down for more than 15 minutes, and within 5 minutes, you have to jump in the shower and get to work, because there’s a crisis. As far as “Crysis” that’s for later. Please make peace in Palestine / Israel. Tell Netanyahu to resign, or I’m telling everybody to put Death Stranding 1 Director’s Cut, and Death Stranding 2 on the jumbotron, and say: “you see HIGGS? That’s the bad guy, do you see how dangerous he is, here’s a metaphor, it’s fucking Netanyahu himself. In Joker makeup costume.” That’s who we’re trying to defeat here.

Until Next Time!

BLOGPOST UPDATE IN PROGRESS

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1166 & BENKYO RADIO 1166. Here’s my Linktree, if you’d like to make a donation. I have EDS, it’s a very rare genetic disease, and it causes me to have exhaustion often. It’s a big problem, because others would consider it as laziness when it is surely not. Anyway, some people who have worked with me know I work hard, others just exploited me. There is one guy at BMW FS who knows I worked super-hard, he was the VP when I worked on the Expense Report on the weekend while everybody was on vacation. He remembered my story, and I told him, my whole life, all I wanted was driving a BMW M vehicle. That was my dream. To go to Germany, have an European Delivery, and bring it back to California. I got to be at the Nurburgring, near Frankfurt & Cologne, and unfortunately, I drove the competition, an Audi A6/S6 because BMW rentals were sold out. I was devastated, but still enjoyed the drive. I know German-Engineering are superior than many other vehicles. I still need to drive a BMW, already drove a Mercedes-Benz before as a rental, and I have yet to drive a Porsche. Car Manufacturers around the World have A LOT TO LEARN from German-Engineering Luxury Brands. I have got to drive a BMW someday, whether as a rental, or full-time vehicle. Maybe I could at least own one as a “Company-car.” It’s of importance, not just to myself, to your brand, but for work, both at the Startup level, and the World Affairs level. I asked a request by myself, to bring a BMW M Touring vehicle to America, something completely unheard of, and it’s coming? I have got to consider it for Christmas or later. I don’t have the spending capital to own one, but someone does, my future employer, whoever that person might be. I need this. There’s something special about this car. It’s a goddamn “Batmobile” inside for me. The Wagon-size lets me carry KRK speakers, IKEA furniture, new computer triangular table, musical equipments, a bike, or a stroller someday. This vehicle has a lot of potential. Just like the Audi RS6 Avant.

[Inc.] AI keeps you up at night, because after 10 job interviews both phone and video calls, I was this close to get a career salary position and job offer at Journey Blazers, a tech startup that works with Salesforce. I did not get the job because the CEO did not like the article about my car accident. This is blatantly against the law. I will enjoy watching Salesforce perform a nosedive until I witness a written apology and a job offer. I have been stable with bipolar disorder for over 12 years, got 12 years of Corporate experience, a college/university degree, and 2 certificates. Hire me, or suffer the consequences for discrimination. If I had taken that position, it had been a few years, I would already be driving my Audi RS6 Avant now or BMW M5 Touring this Christmas 2024/2025.

What he has done is so dangerous, so grandiose, the average person doing that would have been shot in the back. There’s no other way to say it, if Trump spied for Russia, China, stole Nuclear Secrets, 91 felony counts, and more, and he still not got shot in the back of the head, it’s time to ask, do we live inside the #TrumpMatrix simulation? Is he Agent Smith? How did he acquire so much power and still isn’t killed? What is going on here? What is this #TrumpTVshow that never seems to end? Something is clearly wrong. Trump is in CRIMINAL COURT right now. Is there an end in sight? Let’s hope so.

BLOGPOST 1162 COMPLETE

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1162 & BENKYO RADIO 1162. I really wanted to win a Project Manager position (remote/hybrid) at SAP in San Francisco. That would let me afford a brand-new Audi RS or BMW M vehicle. I know that they hire people that are Neurodivergent. I’ve been talking about German-Engineering vehicles for over the past 5 years, and in that short time, the SAP stock jumped 89%. I’m sure it’ll climb higher. Look, I’ve done a lot of work, and I will continue. Right now, I just want a brand-new Audi RS, BMW M, or JDM vehicle asap. Thanks for your help.

Until Next Time!

Disability Inclusion: AHA! Moments in D&I [SAP] #SAP #IwantToWorkAtSAP

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1161 & BENKYO RADIO 1161. I recently received some gear from Tuned In Tokyo, it was a mystery box I got around Christmas. It was amazing, lots of cool gear inside, and here’s a YouTube VLOG I’ve made about it. Enjoy. Please remember only trust my video content from my YouTube channel, and be sure to subscribe. To make sure you’re on the real one, it’s the one that has my video from The Ohio State University where OSU scored a touchdown. I am also a little upset over providing ton of work pretty much unpaid ($550.00 monthly allowance, $300.00/month credit card limit), I am ready for my break soon, I’m going to Fujiwara Tofu Bistro and celebrate (they got a bunch of great new sushi and other things on the menu), unfortunately I still do not have a new car/vehicle. I’ve entered LGND Supply Co, Speed Society, 80Eighty, TunerCult contests, and I hope to win any one of them, but preferably, the Audi RS6 Avant (edit: I did not win the LGND contest, I was very sad). My goal is to finish the SEGA RGG game “The Man Who Erased His Name” before I get there. I need a suit, and Great Teacher Onizuka is on Netflix. It’s going to be amazing. This will be good for Mental Health, and Emotional Support.

Until Next Time!
