Salutations.

It is now 12:05AM EST for me.

In case you want to know, based on what I said in the previous list, I think I know why 2 of my fingers on my left hand were feeling a little itchy. I think that was happening for a while, but it was seasonal.(Not during winter, for example, because there were fewer bugs.) What I would normally try to do would use bug repellent patches and bug repellent spray before I would go to work, but I would not use bug repellent spray going home from work. I would still have the bug patches on my clothing throughout the day, but they were not enough to protect my hands while I was going home from work. Now, I would add bug repellent spray on my hands before I would go home from work. Now, it’s both directions. This is the bug repellent spray that I would use:

OFF! Family Care, Insect Repellent II Clean Feel, 6 oz

—

I think it’s fairly common. If you can’t find it in your supermarket, Amazon.com also sells it.

Now, the 2 fingers from my left hand almost feel normal, without that lingering itch. If you use a backpack to go to work, a 6 oz bottle should fit in there, so that you can using it going home from work, if you also think you have such a problem.

Since I was scheduled to start at 7:00PM EST, and it’s now 12:14AM EST, I’m over 5 hours late. Because I have less time, I’m going to explain 2 ideas today called ‘Can’t relax’ and ‘Can’t concede’. Um, if you watched that music video from a previous idea, ‘Playing with the Boys’ by Kenny Loggins, then in my opinion ideas ‘Can’t relax’ and ‘Can’t concede’ should be easy for you to learn, if you choose to learn them. I made other ideas, but they would have to wait, since I have considerably less time to explain ideas for this list.

I recently checked my recent Amazon.com purchases, and I purchased this item again:

eachway Shoe Stretcher Shoe Trees,Adjustable Length & Width for Men and Women

—

The shoe stretcher that I purchased about a year ago, it seemed to have lost some of it’s effectiveness, so I just ordered another one. It’s only about $20 with Prime shipping available, so I don’t mind purchasing another one.

According to Amazon.com, it still offers a variety of colors and sizes for men and women.

—

It is now 12:25AM EST for me.

I am going to look for a music video and trailer now for this list. That should take about 2 hours. So, if you are there when I start typing again, I’ll see you then.

—

It is now 2:47AM EST for me.

I got something to eat, which is why I am late.

The music video that I watched for the 1st time around 2 hours ago and recommend for this advice is called ‘DROP TOP’ by MEOVV. Here is a quick quote from wikipedia.org about the group:

‘ Meovv (pronounced “Meow”; Korean: stylized in all caps) is a South Korean girl group formed and managed by The Black Label. The group consists of five members: Sooin, Gawon, Anna, Narin, and Ella. They debuted on September 6, 2024, with the release of their digital single “Meow”. ‘

—

I found it by selecting publisher in www.youtube.com ‘InMusic Official’, select ‘Videos’, then select ‘New Songs Of The Week (May 16, 2025) | New Music Friday’ published 4 days ago. A video clip from music video ‘DROP TOP’ starts 3 minutes and 22 seconds into that music video collection.

Here’s a quote from the lyrics:

Drop top, drop top, feel the rain drop

—

And here’s a quote from seoulbeats.com about the music video:

‘ Fortunately, the last part of “Drop Top” offers more creative moments. Heading into the second chorus, the members leap from a cardboard box into an open sky. Subsequent sequences that show them flying, shot in a naturalistic style, are genuinely captivating. There’s also some nice animation and a smart use of fish eye lens shots to add momentum to the final chorus. ‘

—

To watch the music video, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘drop top meovv’, and it should be one of the 1st selections offered, with 14M views. It was published 8 days ago by publisher ‘THEBLACKLABEL’.

—

I chose it because of the music video special effects, and it’s new.

—

The movie trailer that I think I recommended for the 1st time in this blog is called ‘Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children’. This movie came out in 2016, but I don’t think I used it as a trailer for these ideas before. I could be wrong, but I can’t remember doing so. I found it by selecting publisher ’20th Century Studios’, select ‘Videos’, then select ‘Popular’. Since the trailer has 18M views, and the trailers are starting with ‘most views’ in descending order, just scroll down until you reach around 18M views.

To watch the trailer, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘miss peregrine’s trailer’, and it should be one of the 1st selections offered, with 18M views. It was published 9 years ago by publisher ’20th Century Studios’. and it’s called ‘Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children | Official Trailer [HD] | 20th Century FOX’.

It is now 3:10AM EST for me.

I am going to take a break. I’ll see you soon.

It is now 3:50AM EST for me.

Can’t relax:

Idea ‘Can’t relax’ is still from idea ‘Address use’, ‘Not addressed, not used’.

Can’t:

‘Can’t’ is an idea I used several times before. Basically, celebrity entertainment actor Djimon Hounsou(for example, Wizard from movie ‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods(2023)’ in the story portrays a father to a son. He gives his son a task, and soon after his grammar school attending son discovers that he cannot perform the task, he says to his father ‘I can’t!’, and as soon as he said that to his father, he looked at his father, and his father’s appearance at that moment, which it wasn’t before, was meant to look like Merlin the magician, the old Merlin. His father was wearing a long, white beard. His son was trying to understand why he looks that way.

—

I imagined making the question, I think it’s like this, ‘Why would his father present himself that way after he declared that he cannot perform a task?’

—

I made the idea that an instigator may present an instigation that encourages complexity to be used to create a solution/treatment for that experienced instigation, and that your efforts used to create a solution/treatment that uses complexity will discourage you from relaxing. In other words, you will have your ‘guard up’ to make a solution/treatment using complexity, but you will have your ‘guard down’, you will be more susceptible when using a sense of relaxing.

I do have an illustration reference for idea ‘Can’t relax’, it’s not ideal, but at least it’s from a Marvel movie. The characters exist in the Marvel universe. I’m just quoting the part when the main characters talk. Basically, in my opinion, the 2 main characters are both in a criminal lifestyle, both have powers, and one of them hired the other. The other is presenting an aspect of his power as proof that he is useful for the job. The Marvel action movie is ‘Kraven the Hunter(2024)’ starring Alessandro Nivola as Aleksei Sytsevich, and Christopher Abbott as The Foreigner. The movie is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene starts 1 hour, 28 minutes, and 34 seconds into the movie. Even though this is a Marvel movie, I still recommend that all the references used for this advice are with the inapproprieities removed. Here is the quote:

Aleksei: ‘Cute.’

—

Aleksei than says something to The Foreigner that he is offended by the way he used an aspect of his power upon Akeksei and his men.

—

The Foreigner: ‘Relax.’

—

The Foreigner recommended to Aleksei to ‘relax’ after his demonstration of ability caused Aleksei to be offended.

—

I imagined that an instigator may do this to you because the ability to relax is something that you would want to have, that you would find useful to be able to experience when you would need to, when you would choose to. One example, not every example, when you would experience certain mild to moderate instigations from certain instigators at work/school, the instigator may believe that the purpose he/she is causing you to experience an instigation involves you having an inhibited/weakened sense of relaxing use as you experience such an instigation.

The solution is that, when you believe you are experiencing an instigation that encourages you to have an inhibited/weakened sense of relaxing, contemplationally say to yourself ‘Can’t relax’ so that you can identify and manage better such an experienced instigation.

Another reason that I imagined that an instigator would use complexity to discourage you from using a sense of relaxing, to simply discourage you from making solutions that involve relaxing. The more ‘complexity discouraging relaxing’ solutions/treatments you make, the less likely you may even consider the possibility that solutions/treatments can be made using relaxing as a priority.

Notice that, in that movie scene, Aleksei’s employees were confused as to what had happened, and even Aleksei himself was offended by the experience. Imagined as of now, I believe that effect was intentional, to show Aleksei that The Foreigner can be useful to Aleksei in fighting, for example, to help fight and defeat Kraven the Hunter.(Aaron Taylor-Johnson). And, of course, take the inapproprieities out/don’t use it from that scene when used for this advice.

Can’t concede:

I finished watching the last 3 episodes from season 2 of series ‘Andor(2025)’, which was made available streaming from Disney+ on Tuesday, May 13, 2025. Yesterday, as I was looking through the streaming service ‘Disney+’, I noticed the movie ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story(2016)’, and for a few minutes, even though I thought I watched it before, I wasn’t able to remember the scenes from that movie. As I started to remember them, I made the deduction, in my opinion, that since the tv series ‘Andor’ was a prequel to the movie ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’, that caused me to see that movie differently. And so, I decided to watch that movie again. And here is the scene that I’m quoting from ‘Disney+’ for idea ‘Can’t concede’. The quoted scene starts 1 hour, 11 minutes, and 40 seconds:

Jyn Erso(Felicity Jones): ‘Orders? When you know they’re wrong? You might as well be a Stormtrooper.’

Cassian Andor(Diego Luna): ‘What do you know? We all don’t have the luxury of deciding when and where we want to care about something. Suddenly the Rebellion is real for you. Some of us live it. I’ve been in this fight since I was 6 years old. You’re not the only one who lost everything. Some of us just decided to do something about it.’

Jyn Erso: ‘You can’t talk your way around this.’

Cassian: ‘I don’t have to.’

—

1 hour, 12 minutes, 36 seconds:

Cassian: (looking at the 3 men) ‘Anybody else?’

—

I think it was just before I started typing in this blog that I invented idea ‘Can’t concede’. In the example, Jyn Erso is not able to concede with that Cassian ordered to happen. It’s a ‘Star Wars’ movie, and I wanted you to have an example of a person not being able to concede involving a certain participation, refurvished with inapproprieities removed, of course, and Jyn Erso is certainly not conceding to Cassian.

My point is that certain experienced instigations may discourage you from developing a sense of conceding. I recently imagined that ‘instigation group’ idea that I created and explained in past lists, that they would create many projects to present to management that involve a lot of conceding. They created them and went over them before presenting such projects to management. Of course, at least for the adults, when you would imagine management, the investigation them, and those with authority talk to certain instigators, that such conversations involve a lot of conceding from the instigators. Even though just imagined/thought about, what about concedings coming from individuals and other groups choosing to talk to you? They may present to you an option or options, and the ability to concede would help you a great deal when interacting with such options, but experienced instigations may have already caused you to have an adversely affected sense of conceding, making it difficult for you to just concede to one option presented by those individuals and groups.

I imagined that people in general exist with years of experience of conceding in American companies/jobs in general. For example, they set separate limitations to those they communicate with relating the use of conceding. Here’s a quote from episode 2.3 ‘The Geometry of Shadows’ from sci-fi tv series ‘Babylon 5(1994)’ starring Michael Ansara as Elric, and Bruce Boxleitner as Capt. John Sheridan. The episode is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene starts about 28 minutes and 40 seconds into the episode:

Elric: ‘Fourteen words to make someone fall in love with you forever. Seven words to make them go without pain.’

—

For example, if you are able to manage concedings as it relates to the limitations you assign others when communicating with them, since I am a single man, just imagined, not where I work, imagined in some other job, and I would meet an attractive, single, available woman in that other job, for certain options presented to me, maybe 3 concedings to allow that option to be made more presentable by that woman, 20 concedings, just imagined of course, in a reasonable context, to be in a relationship with that woman, and during that relationship, to be ready to propose to her for marriage, maybe over 300 concedings?

And of course, there are other options that can be presented to you that can still benefit from an imagined consideration of conceding use. Let’s say I present to another attractive, single, available woman the possibility of 10 concedings for her to use, for some reason, she needs to put me through something, and as I offer her those concedings separately, by the time she used the 3rd conceding, she felt satisfied enough to continue with me, generalistically speaking of course.

The solution/treatment that I recommend is that, if you think that an experienced instigation is discouraging you from developing a sense of conceding, contemplationally say ‘Can’t concede’ so that you can manage such an experience in your favor more, and maybe you may choose to develop more your use of conceding, if you think it would benefit you to do so.

It is now 5:26AM EST for me.

I am going to close this list now. I will start typing again Monday, May 26, 2025, or Tuesday, May 27, 2025, about 7:00PM EST for both, unless I change my mind again. So, if you are there, I’ll see you then.
