Wishlist #1331

Salutations.

It is now 8:04 AM EST for me.

Before I begin looking for that music video and trailer again, I want to add to idea ‘Intent of action’ that I offered in Wishlist #1325 on 6/04/2022. If you are still thinking from time to time that song ‘Take You Home’ by Dido, then I want to recommend to you as an option, (you don’t have to use it, I’m just recommending it) the song ‘Picture This’ by Annie LeBlanc. As per the recommendation, that song will be refurbished to be used in another way. Here is a quote from tigerbeat.com about the song:

After giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at the music video for “Picture This”, the 13-year-old singer surprised fans by releasing the song a day early! An upbeat jam about a girl crushing on a guy, “Picture This” is the perfect song to blast when you’re in the mood to have an epic dance party!

According to wikipedia.org, Jules LeBlanc was born December 5, 2004, and is now 17 years old. According to the article, the music video existed when she was 13 years old. If you do a search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘picture this’ and select Annie LeBlanc’s music video ‘Picture This’, it was published June 2, 2018, 4 years ago.

And here is a quote from the lyrics to song ‘Picture This’:

Say, ooh la la
Here we are
Come a little closer
Cause I like you so far
Picture this
Picture this
Say, ooh hey hey
You and me
Baby let’s smile in one two three
Picture this
Picture this, ooh ooh

I want to stipulate that it is my belief that most of the music videos that are made, even now, are made to be relationship based. However, even though such songs are relationship based, the singer tends to add other forms of meaning to their music video participations. One example is from the actress Isabele Merced(formerly Moner) from the movie ‘Dora and the Lost City of Gold’ about her music video ‘PAPI’, which was published November 6, 2019. Here’s a quote from idolator.com about the music video:

‘ … the song finds Isabela laying down the law to potential suitors. ‘

‘ “I’m very influenced by Latin music like salsa, reggaeton, cumbia, and bachata,” she continues. “I’m experimenting with instruments and sounds from Peru, because they’re beautiful yet untouched by the mainstream. There’s also an energy and edge that comes from urban and rhythmic. It’s a new take on Latin pop with my own Peruvian spice and attitude. ‘

So, the quote that says:

‘ the song finds Isabela laying down the law to potential suitors. ‘

is an obvious indication that the song is obviously referencing interaction involved with relationships, and the quote that says that:

‘ “I’m very influenced by Latin music like salsa, reggaeton, cumbia, and bachata,” she continues. “I’m experimenting with instruments and sounds from Peru, because they’re beautiful yet untouched by the mainstream. There’s also an energy and edge that comes from urban and rhythmic. It’s a new take on Latin pop with my own Peruvian spice and attitude. ‘

is an obvious example of a music video that is showing more than just being another ‘relationship based’ music video, that the singer wants the viewers of her performance in her music video to appreciate it for other things that she is illustration with her use of music and performance.

Now, if you choose to use the music video ‘Picture This’, yes, Annie LeBlanc, according to tigerbeat.com, the music video and song is about ‘An upbeat jam about a girl crushing on a guy’, anothe obvious song and music video that is ‘relationship based’. I stipulate to that, but when using the song and music video associated with idea ‘Intent of action’, I’m putting aside that obvious use(don’t focus on using that), and I am recommending that you use it for it’s obvious focus. Here’s another quote from the lyrics again:

Say, ooh la la
Here we are
Come a little closer
Cause I like you so far
Picture this
Picture this
Say, ooh hey hey
You and me
Baby let’s smile in one two three
Picture this
Picture this, ooh ooh

If you watch the music video, you should notice that the phrase ‘Picture this’ is used many times. So, if you don’t use the music video and song for it’s obvious ‘relationship based’ focus, and instead use it mainly for it’s focus itself, then in my opinion, that should help you feel better, at least better than just using Dido’s song ‘Take You Home’.

So, as it relates to your use of idea ‘Intent of action’, when you are thinking of the song ‘Picture This’ contemplationally, primarily use it’s focus, that it’s focusing on something else, so if you want to relax, whatever is somewhat bothering you, or if it’s just something you don’t want to do within reason so that you can relax, just contemplationally think of the song ‘Picture This’ as presenting to you a focus that is focusing on something else. Use the focus itself, and not specifically in a relationship context.

I’d like to point out that the ‘S’ logo, at least when I watched the music video, is on Annie LeBlanc’s shirt several times. It is my belief that you can’t just wear that symbol in an official music video unless you have permission from whoever or whatever owns the rights to that symbol. I don’t know who that is, but there are probably computer servers that will take such media out of the internet relatively quickly if such images are posted. So, I’m assuming that whoever made the music video ‘Picture This’, that they have permission to present that ‘S’ symbol.

It is now 9:06 AM EST for me. I am now going to look for that music video and trailer again. I plan to give you at least 3 ‘story ideas’ today, and then next week finally explain further idea ‘Self’. I’ll start typing later today after I find that music video and trailer.

It is now 11:25 AM EST for me.

I found a music video and trailer to recommend, but because of the time, I want to order food 1st before I continue typing. I’ll be right back.

It is now 1:24 PM EST for me.

I have eaten from the UberEats food delivery, and I have some leftover food for later. I want to start with the movie trailer that I watched earlier today for the 1st time, that I recommend to be used for this advice. And of course, you don’t have to use it. It’s just a recommendation. The movie trailer is called ‘Secret Headquarters | Official Trailer | Paramount+’. It was published July 14, 2022 by publisher ‘Paramount Plus’, and has over 1.7 million views. I found it by searching in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘trailers july 2022’, I then selected ‘FILTERS’ from the upper left hand corner, for ‘UPLOAD DATE’, I selected ‘This week’, I then scrolled down and found the trailer ‘Secret Headquarters’. It was from another publisher. I then checked publisher ‘Paramount Plus’, and I eventually found it’s posting from there. If I didn’t find it from there, I would have used the original publisher that I found the movie trailer from. It’s just that the movie, according to wikipedia.com, will be released by streaming service ‘Paramount +’. Here is a quote from wikipedia.org about the movie:

‘ Starring Owen Wilson, Walker Scobell, Jesse Williams, Keith L. Williams, Momona Tamada, and Michael Peña, the plot follows a child (Scobell) and his friends (L. Williams, Tamada) who begins to suspect his father (Wilson) might be a superhero after discovering a secret headquarters in his basement.

The film is set to be released in the United States on August 12, 2022, on Paramount+. ‘

I’m recommending that you watch it because the trailer is for a comedy sci-fi movie where kids find out that one of their friend’s parents is a super hero. There’s lots of sci-fi special effects involved, and it’s also a comedy. There’s even a scene in the trailer where one of the fighters calls a ‘time-out’ from the fighting, because he’s exhausted fighting in his super suit, and they both stop fighting. That scene starts 2 minutes and 22 seconds into the trailer. Here is a partial quote:

Villain portrayed by Michael Pena: (turning the suit off, expressing exhaustion) ‘So hot!’

Superhero portrayed by Owen Wilson: ‘I got the Winter suit.’

The music video that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘Bells Variation’ by Alban Claudin. I looked for a review for that music video but I could not find one. I’m guessing it’s because I am too unfamiliar with that type of music to find such a review. I looked in wikipedia.org, and I could not find anything. So, I’m just using the description provided from youtube.com:

‘ Alban Claudin, a young composer and pianist from France, has collaborated with an array of artists and provided music for documentaries and short-films, all the while preparing a solo album in the shadows. He unveiled some of the compositions from this album in his recent live performance for Le Maison Tsugi Festival on the 26th of April, 2020. His music is characterized by a melodic – at times pop – immediacy, an enchanted melancholy and crystalline writing, all of which is delivered with luminous interpretation. ‘

I found it by searching in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘vevo’. I then selected publisher ‘Vevo’, scrolled to the bottom and for category ‘Featured Channels’, I selected ‘Vevo Playlists’. I then selected category ‘Playlists For Your Mood’, and then selected sub-category ‘Deep Focus Playlist – Concentration Music For Work | Vevo Playlist’. Here’s the description:

‘ Focus your mind with electronica and modern classical music videos. ‘

‘Bells Variation’ was #10 out of 94 from that playlist. It was published January 28, 2022, 5 months ago.

The reason why I recommend watching music video ‘Bells Variation’ for this advice is how the music video illustrates the woman in that music video, how it associates her with the music. It’s all about ‘how’. Listening to ‘Bells Variation’ seems to be illustrated by how the woman in that music video is associating herself to it, whether directly in the music video, or just by her presentation in that music video. I highly recommend watching it in that context.

And for the record, I went through other more popular selection possibilities, but I couldn’t find one that I would want to use, which eventually led me to this Playlist. In other words, it was the last place I looked. If I could, I would have chosen another music video, but I wasn’t able to find one.

It is now 3:47 PM EST for me.

It’s getting late for me, but I want to type in 3 ‘story ideas’ today. If I type in 2 today, in a manner of speaking, that will be a personal ‘miracle’ for me. I’m starting late because the 1st story requires me to renew my ‘disneyplus’ streaming service. I cancelled it a little while ago, after the series ‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ was finished. Now, I recently renewed it so that I can quote from it again. Also, I couldn’t find one of the original references for that story. So, what I’ll do is offer you 2 references, and then just explain using the 3rd one that I can’t verify. It may not even exist anymore.

The 1st reference is in episode 1.5 ‘Chapter 5: Return of the Mandalorian’ from tv series ‘The Book of Boba Fett(2022)’. The scene starts, according to Disney plus, 36 minutes and 13 seconds into that episode. Here is the quote:

The Mandalorian(Pedro Pascal): ‘The entire vapor manifold is missing.’

Peli Motto(Amy Sedaris): ‘Trust me, the last thing you want strangling your thrust capacitor is a vapor manifold. I fabricated you this induction intake charger that’s gonna double your output coefficient.’

The Mandalorian: ‘It’ll also blow the shaft out of my motivator block.’

Peli Motto: ‘That’s why I’m reinforcing your compression housing, and you can access it by using this Kineso-switch right here. You hit this button, you’re gonna evacuate your exhaust manifold, if you know what I mean.’

The 2nd illustration reference is in episode 1.6 ‘Chapter 6: From the Desert Comes a Stranger’ again from sci-fi tv series ‘The Book of Boba Fett(2022)’. According to the Disney plus streaming service, that scene starts 30 minutes and 18 seconds into the episode. Here is the quote:

Cobb Vanth(Timothy Olyphant): ‘Is that a Naboo starfighter?’

The Mandalorian: ‘That’s what it started off as.’

In the 3rd reference, and I can’t find it again, I remember The Armorer(Emily Swallow), the Mandalorian who makes their armor, saying something like the Mandalorians existing for over 100,000 years, and The Empire fell in almost no time at all compared to that.

All right. Here’s the story: I think I made the gist of this story while I watched this scene of ‘The Book of Boba Fett’. Here is that quote again:

The Mandalorian(Pedro Pascal): ‘The entire vapor manifold is missing.’

Peli Motto(Amy Sedaris): ‘Trust me, the last thing you want strangling your thrust capacitor is a vapor manifold. I fabricated you this induction intake charger that’s gonna double your output coefficient.’

The Mandalorian: ‘It’ll also blow the shaft out of my motivator block.’

Peli Motto: ‘That’s why I’m reinforcing your compression housing, and you can access it by using this Kineso-switch right here. You hit this button, you’re gonna evacuate your exhaust manifold, if you know what I mean.’

I don’t think it was the 1st time that I saw that scene, but when I saw it again, I made the imagined deduction that the technology that allows small spacecraft to travel in the ‘Star Wars’ galaxy also gave the beings that used such technology a certain convenient language, like the language The Mandalorian and Peli Motto was using. Since I’m not that aware of how the ‘Star Wars’ galaxy works, I just imagined that, ‘in the beginning’, it was around 100,000 years ago, around the same time The Mandalorians became more active in the galaxy. This is how I imagined it: One of those planets, a certain civilization in that ‘Star Wars’ galaxy, offered the other civilizations/planets a technology that allows small spacecraft to conveniently hyperspace anywhere in their known galaxy. Now, when I imagined it, one of their scientists, one of the people from that civilization who understands how that techology works, warned the rest of the known galaxy that such a technology has a weakness: if an electromagnetic pulse were to be discharged in the areas where that hyperdrive using technology were to be actively used, it would disable such technology.

Even with such a warning, the other civilizations of the ‘Star Wars’ galaxy still found many reasons to use such a techology. In a manner of speaking, they filled every nook and cranny of that ‘Star Wars’ galaxy that they could imagine with it. And any sentient being that used such a convenient form of technology used that convenient language associated with that use of technology. You can hear that language being used when people who use that small spacecraft techology communicate, and they’ve been using that technology ever since it’s inception, which was about 100,000 years ago, according to how I imagined it.

There are illustrations where big spacecraft are used, and such spacecraft are not using that convenient form of technology that small spacecraft uses. They cater to the many different lifeforms of civilizations for that ‘Star Wars’ galaxy to transport from one planet to another, and they’re always upgrading their techology use, whereas small spacecraft technology have been using the same hyperspace traveling technology for 100,000 years.

Anonymous:

Here’s the definition of ‘anonymous’ that I’m using from www.dictionary.com for this advice:

without any name acknowledged, as that of author, contributor, or the like:
an anonymous letter to the editor; an anonymous donation.

It’s going to get sloppy again. I’m just going to type what I can.

Every community in America has a committee, and each community has it’s own unique problems. In this story, one of those committee’s needs the help of an American specialist. For the purposes of this story, you don’t need to know what this specialist does. And this committee requested that he attend a meeting and help them with a specific problem.

That specialist agreed to help them, but under one condition: that he wears a costume that hides his identity, and that his actual identity is not obligated to be used during that meeting. It doesn’t matter if you actually know his identity or not, he just wants to help them in an anonymous manner. He doesn’t want to experience any distress associated with actually knowing who he is.

The committee eventually decided to meet his condition, and to make that meeting more considerate for him, everyone in that meeting will be wearing a costume, and a few of their kids will also be there wearing costumes. There will even be a few more specialists who will be invited to attend who will also want to participate under that condition. Of course, that courtesy is for the benefit for that one specialist.

During a break during that meeting, you see that man wearing that costume, let’s say he looks like DC’s Owl Man with the costume on, one of Bruce Wayne’s alternate reality versions of himself. 2 kids from 2 of the committee members see him walk by, and they talk about him. They say something about him, that they know that he is the reason everyone in the meeting are wearing costumes.

The reason I offered you story ‘Anonymous’ is to show you that there are people that want to help anonymously, without letting you know their identities. As an option that you don’t have to use, isn’t it better to be able to help someone anonymously, without that person knowing who you are? I believe that many people, if they were to have the option to anonymously help others, that they may choose to do so, as opposed to helping others in the usual way, in a way that allows those other people to know who you are.

It is now 5:24 PM EST for me. I am going to close this list now. Next Saturday, I will finally finish explaining idea ‘Self’, unless I change my mind again. So, if you are there next Saturday, I’ll see you then.
