Happy Music Wednesday, everybody! A quick update: JUL is reportedly working on new French rap material, though it's not ready for release just yet. On the personal side — I'm back on Boo, the dating app, under username IAMZAKI, with premium features active for the next three months. If you're into anime, manga, video games, movies, TV, international studies, and diplomacy — plus a lot of coffee, ramen, and sushi — feel free to say hi. We'll dig into the Apple Event in more detail next week; word is a folding "Apple Duo" could run as high as $3,000, which is out of reach for most of us. In the meantime, I'm putting it out there: Nothing Technology CEO Carl Pei, if you're reading this, a Nothing Phone (3), (4a), or (4b) in 512GB would make my year. Same goes for you, Sundar Pichai — a Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold in 512GB would be incredible.

What's up, everybody! Today we celebrate Geeks, Nerds, Otakus, Intellos, and Strebers — round of applause for keeping every server up and running across the United States and the world, especially during a tumultuous week and somber anniversary. Shout-out to every Linux sysadmin out there; let's enjoy some IT Crowd marathons. I've got my eye on a lightweight travel laptop so I don't have to lug around my MacBook Pro or Lenovo Legion on trips — and I'm still hoping for a Razer Blade 16 or 18 someday, or maybe a Razer Care Package since I'm a proud Razer Creator. Shout-out to everyone in #Technology, both #BigTech and #Startups — Friday and the weekend are coming, which means LAN parties everywhere as people dive into World of Warcraft: Midnight, or livestream whatever else they're playing. Online multiplayer gaming pulls in billions of players worldwide every month, though exact concurrent numbers vary a lot by title and platform.

What's up, everybody! Thus begins #LDW2K26 — Labor Day Weekend 2026. Back in our 20s and 30s, this weekend meant a trip to Las Vegas for a DJ concert. With inflation the way it is these days, that's a much bigger ask now. I'm still hoping to procure a brand-new vehicle in time for the grand opening of the Barnes & Noble Bookstore in Elk Grove in about two weeks — it's my dream, and every bit of support helps get me there.

Happy Medicine Thursday, everybody! Today we're covering Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and chronic illness, bipolar disorder and mental illness, music therapy, and even video-game therapy. A quick reminder while we're on the topic: your local pharmacy should have the latest COVID-19 vaccine available soon — I plan on getting mine, and I'd suggest you do the same. And please, vaccinate your kids against measles. Talk to your family physician and pediatrician; they know your history best.

💉 Public Health Reminder

COVID-19 vaccines are rolling out at pharmacies again this fall — I'm getting mine, and I'd encourage you to consider it too. And please, keep kids' measles vaccinations current; it's one of the simplest ways to keep them safe.

As always: this is general encouragement, not medical advice. Talk to your family physician or pediatrician about what's right for you and your family.

Music Therapy Spotlight

Camille Thomas & Julien Brocal — Rendez-vous

Franco-Belgian cellist Camille Thomas and pianist Julien Brocal frame their album Rendez-vous, recorded at Montana's Tippet Rise Art Center, as more than a listening experience — Brocal has paired it with "Musical Breathing" mindfulness sessions developed with psychologist Dr. Ilios Kotsou, distributed through an open-source app to help listeners manage anxiety. The record reworks contemplative classical pieces, including Bach's Ave Maria and Satie's Gymnopédie No. 3, alongside original reflective improvisations. It follows Thomas's earlier UNICEF-backed Voice of Hope project and her pandemic-era Chopin Project — both explicitly framed around music as a tool for collective and individual healing.

Gaming & Wellness

Video Games as a Communication Bridge in Primary Care

Some clinicians and mental-health researchers have explored using commercial games like sports sims as a low-stakes "shared third object" in doctor visits — something to look at together rather than a direct interrogation, which can ease the anxiety patients feel discussing chronic illness or mental health. The idea is that talking through in-game routines, setbacks, and recovery can open the door to real conversations about energy, motivation, and support systems. It's not a substitute for treatment, and clinicians caution that games with heavy microtransaction or FOMO mechanics can become their own source of stress if not used mindfully.

This is a general wellness concept, not clinical guidance — talk to your own doctor about what communication approach works for you.

Small Joys

A Large Tuna Sandwich, a Slow Afternoon

Living with bipolar disorder means the day-to-day can be a lot, so it's worth celebrating the small, steady comforts — like a proper late lunch. A large tuna sandwich, piled high, toasted just right, is one of those simple pleasures: satisfying, easy to make, and a nice built-in pause in the middle of a busy day. Fish is a great addition to a balanced plate, and honestly, half the benefit is just the ritual of sitting down, taking a real break, and enjoying something you like without rushing.

A good lunch is a nice mood boost, not a treatment plan — if you're on medication, check with your doctor or pharmacist about any food interactions specific to you.

Happy Music Wednesday, everybody! Today we're all about the world of music. JETLAG RADIO episode 4935 is live on Spotify right now, and I'm hoping to land the big JLR 5000 milestone sometime in September or October — it'll line up with the DJ MAG Top 100 DJs announcement, so it deserves to be a proper release. Nothing new yet on 13 Organisé, AKH, SCH, JUL, or Le Classico Organisé, but I'm still hoping for a "Le Classico Organisé II" compilation down the line. Keeping an eye on the new PNL album too, and the buzz around the upcoming Wu-Tang record with Inspectah Deck. Meanwhile I've been enjoying "The Documentary III" from The Game — good to see him extending an olive branch on record. If you're in high school or university, don't forget BENKYO RADIO, my LOFI study podcast — a little studying every day adds up.

Happy first of the month, everybody! Today, September 1, we celebrate Geeks, Nerds, Otakus, Intellos, and Strebers everywhere — and yes, I am wearing that badge proudly. A new month also means we're one step closer to the opening of the Barnes & Noble Bookstore in Elk Grove, California, which I am genuinely excited about. There's a Coffee with Zaki VLOG in French coming later today, plus a Coffee with Zack VLOG in English covering yesterday. Let's get into it.

🇫🇷 Proud to Pursue La French Tech San Francisco

I'm actively working toward joining La French Tech San Francisco, and I'm especially excited about the La French Tech NOVA program, which supports high-potential entrepreneurs from under-represented and minority backgrounds — entrepreneurs like myself — with mentoring, investor connections, and access to the broader French Tech network. Fingers crossed!

French Tech Network

Grenoble, Annecy, Chambéry, Valence-Romans, Genevois français — La French Tech Alpes is the local arm of the national French Tech movement, launched by the French State in 2013, connecting startups, talent, and investors across the Alpine corridor. It's exactly the kind of regional ecosystem I hope to be part of as I work toward La French Tech San Francisco.

Coffee with Zack ☕ — Lundi 31 Août 2026

What's up, everybody! It's Monday (Lundi) August (Août) 31st. It's the last day of the month, and it's also Monday, so it's Major Content Curation Day. There's a lot of news to go over today — enjoy all the stories I've curated myself. I appreciate y'all taking the time to read my content, and as always, if you'd like to support my work, please consider a Venmo donation or a purchase through my Razer affiliate link. It means a lot.

I'm genuinely excited because we're a little more than two weeks out from the grand opening of Barnes & Noble in Elk Grove, California. I'm grateful for this location since it'll save me on gas, and I'm hoping there are some good fast food options nearby too. I can't wait to sit in that bookstore and work on ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC, on JETLAG RADIO podcasts, on my next book, and in my journal — and who knows, maybe even meet someone special along the way. It's not impossible — shout-out to Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan for the inspiration.

On a more serious note: I remain genuinely concerned about the President's fitness for the role, and I think there's real embarrassment across the military and among our NATO allies about the state of American leadership right now. There's a lot of work still to be done — the Iran/Israel conflict needs to end, and gas prices need to come back down to earth. And honestly, I could really use some financial breathing room too — even just enough for a decent meal some days. Thank you very much for reading.

Weekend Sports & Motorsport Roundup

Coffee with Zack ☕ — Samedi 29 Août 2026

What's up, everybody! It's Saturday (Samedi) August (Août) 29, 2026. Today we celebrate Sports! I wrote this on Sunday, so you may notice some scores from that day mixed in as well. I'm very excited about Manchester United's performance — I'm watching the highlights right now — and I admire Sir Alex Ferguson's dedication to show up at the match despite hurting his left leg. Makes me want to play some FC 26 later this afternoon. I probably won't be able to afford FC 27 until Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. I'm also excited about earning my first NBA 2K26 trophy, which may take an hour or so — there will be a livestream, timing still TBD. Hope y'all are enjoying my F1 '25 livestreams. If you enjoy my work as a #RazerCreator, a donation to my Venmo always helps — with $30, I can grab the F1 26 DLC. Thank you for the support. As always, here at ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC, we focus on Mental Health, Emotional Support, and Music Therapy.
