"Lenovo Legion Go - It's Go Time" [Lenovo Legion via Twitch]

What’s up, everybody! I am in the process of listing blogposts in the future by date and not by podcasts. I am actually not at PODCAST 1200, but at PODCAST 2200 (Great Teacher Onizuka aka GTO was 22 years old with the motto “Don’t Worry, I will make School Fun for You”) and above. That’s how far into the future I am. Anyway, lots of work to do. Here’s a video to explain stuff to younger generations, since unfortunately, with TikTok, and their 8sec attention span, their ADHD, none of them understands the importance of: “Don’t Boo, Vote.” Thank God that I do, and I will remind them. Now, if you are familiar with TRON mythology, at the end of TRON LEGACY, our main character (Sam)’s father was left behind in the TRON world, and he escaped with his girlfriend. We are now waiting for TRON 3, where we hope that Sam returns to the TRON world, to save his dad, completing the first trilogy of the TRON movies. The other video is from Dragon Ball Super Season 1, near episode 131, where Goku with ULTRA INSTINCT battles Jiren. A very difficult battle. While it is true that a new season of DBZ will be released this early September, everybody wonders where Dragon Ball Super Season 2 is. We shall wait. In the mean time, DRAGON BALL HEROES was released inside a videogame, and I have been unable to watch it yet, and kids/teenagers are gone crazy over it. It’s about TRUNKS imprisoned on another planet, and all the Z Fighters have to come and save him from this hell.

Until Next Time!

This is great! I wish I could have celebrated with everybody at #LaFrenchTechSF on June 3rd evening, but I did not have a credit card with zero balance and a reliable car to come to the Bay. I apologize. Please be upset at my previous employers for doing this to us. We will celebrate some other time, hopefully soon. Vive la France! PS. I will vote in the European Elections for France on Saturday, in Sacramento, CA. Voting for Raphael Glucksmann (Parti Socialiste) because I am from the Left, while the President is from the Right. In any case, be sure to vote to keep the Extreme-Right (Front National / RN) away from power, or else they will get rid of all immigrants in France. Merci.

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.
