Greetings.

It is now 6:19AM EST for me.

Just wanted to tell you that I’ll begin typing again around 8:30AM. Around 11:00AM, I’ll order from DoorDash. Oh, right. I’m currently watching the beginning of episode 2.2 ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’. New episodes I think are available streaming around 3:00AM EST, so it was just made available to watch a few hours ago. I feel entertained as I watch that episode, and I’ll continue watching it after I type this in. It’s not a recommendation for advice, but you may find it entertaining to watch if you choose to. So, if you are there around 8:30AM, I’ll see you then.

Learning without expectations:

It is now 9:04AM EST for me.

Before I finish that ‘Kryptonian’ story, I want to offer more advice about learning without expectations. I talked about it in a recent list. In my opinion, and I only believe that this is happening with many businesses, not only does learning without expectations allows employees to learn many things without the ‘hangups’ of expectations, it is also a very convenient way to learn things, and it is the only way I know of to learn certain things. I want to use an example from the sci-fi tv series ‘Odyssey 5(2002-2004)’ starring Sebastian Roché as Kurt Mendel. It’s not streaming on any of the streaming services that I am normally aware of. If you look it up in www.google.com, it does offer a few streaming services, but I’m not familiar with those services. Anyway, if memory serves, the crew goes back in time a few years, and Kurt Mendel notices that a woman who is supposed to be a celebrity isn’t, and he tries to convince the entertainment industry that she is supposed to be a celebrity, but he wasn’t able to do so. Refurbished, you can use that as an example of ‘Learning without expectations’. Let’s say Kurt Mendel learned from his job to have an appreciation for that woman, to be a celebrity, but when he tried to use that appreciation elsewhere, no one reciprocated. The company he works for was able to teach him something, but when he tried to use those lessons for other expectations, he wasn’t able to be reciprocated. The training he received did allow him to have that appreciation, an appreciation according to the episode he wholeheartedly accepts. It did benefit him.

I’m going to look for a music video and trailer now. Soon after I prepare them later today, I’ll start typing again, later today. So, if you are there, I’ll see you then.

It is now 11:22AM EST for me.

Around 11:00AM EST, less than 20 minutes ago I think, I ordered from UberEats. Here’s some advice for ordering: if you know the restaurant that you are ordering using an app has more food available than the app menu shows, after you order using the food app, you can always call them up and ask if they can add food that is not on their app menu. I just did that for the 1st time today, and I asked for desserts that were not listed on their food menu. They charged me on the card that I gave them over the phone, and sent the receipt to my smart phone, the number that I gave the employee over the phone. Now, I can have my meal, and a few more desserts to go with it! So, if you order from a restaurant using an app, you can try to ask if they can add to your order over the phone, foods that are not listed on their app menu. In my opinion, it doesn’t hurt to ask. They’ll charge the credit card number you’ll give them, and if they accept your order, when you get your food delivered to you using the food app, more food that is not on the app menu will be delivered to you, something to add to your app food ordering experience.

All right. The music video that I watched for the 1st time and recommend for this advice ‘Marshmallow’ by TWICE. I found it in www.youtube.com, select publisher ‘InMusic Official’, select ‘VIDEOS’, select New Songs Of The Week (June 16th, 2023) | New Music Friday’, which was published 5 days ago, and a video clip from music video ‘Marshmallow’ starts 1 minute and 56 seconds into the video collection.

Here’s an English translation quote from the lyrics:

Everyday, my life will no longer be alone
Tomorrow may be like ding-dong, ding-dong happy day
It’s sometimes
Even if it rains, It will be alright
Just dancing, dancing in the rain

To watch the music video, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘misamo marshmallow’, and it should be one of the selections offered, with 4.3M views! It was published 7 days ago by publisher ‘TWICE JAPAN OFFICIAL YouTube Channel’.

Even though the group TWICE is not singing in English in the music video, I recommend that you watch it for the marshmallow themes that are presented in the music video. Here is a quote from wikipedia.org about ‘marshmallow’:

‘ Marshmallow is a type of confectionery that is typically made from sugar, water and gelatin whipped to a solid-but-soft consistency. It is used as a filling in baking or normally molded into shapes and coated with corn starch. ‘

I’ll go over a few examples for you from the music video:

2 minutes and 2 seconds, you see one of the singers unravel a pice of paper with a message in it and a marshmallow. She takes the marshmallow out.

2 minutes and 11 seconds, to me, it looks like the security guard is the one putting the marshmallows in the paper.

2 minutes 47 seconds, the wall displayed on the left side screen looks like it’s oozing marshmallow.

3 minutes 37 seconds, the singer is eating a marshmallow.

These are not all of the examples. I’m just going over a few of those marshmallow examples, in case you choose to watch the music video ‘Marshmallow’.

It is now 1:08PM EST for me.

The food arrived around 12PM, and I’ve been eating ever since. I’m full now, and I have some extra food for later.

Before I begin explaining the movie trailer, I believe that many schools of thought are reading this blog, or could be. So, who they believe Santa Claus is could be entirely different from other people’s beliefs. In this movie trailer, Santa Claus is depicted as being an African American man. He’s going to be someone, right? Just so you know.

The movie trailer that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘Christmas…Again?!’. I found it by selecting link ‘List of Disney Channel original films’ from wikipedia.org, scroll down to ‘Disney Channel Original Movies’, and movie ‘Christmas…Again?!’ is found for year 2021.

Here’s the plot summary from wikipedia.org:

‘ Eleven-year-old Rowena (Ro) (Scarlett Estevez) makes a wish that results in Christmas repeating itself. ‘

And here is a quote from a review that I found searching in www.google.com for phrase ‘christmas again movie reviews’:

‘ Despite the best efforts of Ro’s well-meaning mother (Alexis Carra) and Ro’s colorful and comedic-relief Abuela Sofia (Priscilla Lopez) and Abuelo Hector (Tony Amendola) to keep Ro happy, things go sideways and downhill in slapstick fashion, resulting in Ro inadvertently making a wish to a local Santa (Gary Anthony Williams) to get a Christmas “do-over.” Cue the same song playing on the radio at 8 a.m., and Ro finding herself in a time loop, which she initially finds horrifying until she realizes she can use this crazy spell to her own and quite selfish advantages. ‘

‘ With stops at Navy Pier, the Shedd Aquarium, the Museum of Science & Industry and the Hancock Building’s 360 TILT attraction, “Christmas Again” has a bit of a 21st century, “Rowena’s Day Off” vibe, as our heroine learns the true meaning of Christmas. ‘

To watch movie trailer ‘Christmas…Again?!’, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘christmas again disney trailer’, and it should be one of the 1st selections offered, with 599K views. It was published 1 year ago by publisher ‘Movie Coverage’.

If you choose to watch the movie trailer ‘Christmas…Again?!’, don’t perform/do any of the stunts that you see. Since it’s not presented as an obvious action movie, it’s sense of realism may mislead you into believing that such things are possible to do. You can get hurt if you try and duplicate those stunts. Just watch it like it’s an action movie, that the stunts shown should obviously not be done by people. And if it’s presented like an amusement park ride, amusement park rides offered to the general public have obvious safety precaution situations.

It is now 1:36PM EST for me.

In a previous list, I recommended that, if you don’t know who I am, then use the human appearance of character Satoru Gojo from tv series ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’. According to wikipedia, the 2nd season consisting of 25 episodes is set to premiere on July 6, 2023. I said that because the illustration I recommended for you to use was made by that character. Now, for what I am about to type in, for the story, I am using and I recommend that you use character Clark Kent portrayed by Tom Welling from the ‘Smallville(2001-2011)’ storyline. If you see just a few minutes of him in a ‘Smallville’ episode, you may find it easy to imagine him in the story I’m about to type in. In the story, I’m portraying a Kryptonian, and I recommend for this part of the story that you imagine me as Clark Kent portrayed by Tom Welling, and I’m about to talk to Canton Delaware, portrayed by Mark Sheppard and refurbished for advice. Canton Delaware is shown in 2 episodes of ‘Doctor Who’, 6.1 ‘The Impossible Astronaut’ and 6.2 ‘Day of the Moon’, both episodes are available streaming from Amazon.com.

All right. Here’s the story: As I’m running around helping people with situations that the Kryptonians helped create and just left, in several places on the Earth, I placed a TARDIS prop in these places, to show certain people that I have chosen to help. In this story, even though there’s a Superman in this reality, the sci-fi tv series ‘Doctor Who’ also exists and is popular to watch. I purchased some of those TARDIS props from the people that make the ‘Doctor Who’ tv show, to show certain people. One of these people I’m about to describe me showing it to him is Canton Delaware from the ‘Doctor Who’ series. He is not in the ‘Doctor Who’ tv show in his reality, but seemingly paradoxically, he is a character in the ‘Doctor Who’ series. So, obviously, he’s not a character in their ‘Doctor Who’ series, but conveniently he is a character in reality.

When I 1st met Canton Delaware, he asked me a question, and the answer I gave him was me describing to him how enthusiastically I would attend my kid’s sports events. He did not like the answer I gave him, and so he then asked me a question that demanded a more obviously complex answer. I smiled to myself(I didn’t show him that I was smiling), and then I gave him the answer. Here’s what happened in that moment, when I smiled to myself. I’ll describe it by using how Worf(Michael Dorn) talks to humans in general, even to members of Starfleet. Here is a short quote about Worf from wikipedia.org:

‘ He graduated in 2361 and was commissioned with the rank of Ensign, becoming the first Klingon officer in Starfleet. ‘

In regards as to how Worf talks about his Klingon beliefs and Klingon experiences, Worf has always been careful when talking to humans about them, especially when talking to Starfleet personnel. There are many things that humans cannot tolerate in regards as to how Klingons interact with each other. Here’s a quote from link https://robotech.fandom.com/ about the song “We Will Win”:

‘ “We Will Win” was a song by Lynn Minmei. She sang it when the SDF-1 attacked Dolza’s Zentradi fleet with the help Breetai’s battle group. The song not only raised the morale of the SDF-1 and its allies, but also caused a culture shock to Dolza’s army, confused by the concept of music. ‘

Worf is always concerned about such things, how humans may adversely interpret certain interactions and beliefs of Klingons. Of course, since it is the future, there are technological safeguards in place. There’s probably an obvious safeguard for that. However, when directly interacting with humans, the effects can still be harmful to them.

In other words, I was checking to see if I should give Canton Delaware such a direct answer. In one of my previous lists, I quoted a Star Trek comic book that involved time travel I think, and a Romulan from the past relative to Data’s present asked Data a question, and Data said to the Romulan that he could not give him such information, because it may change the timeline, and the Romulan said to Data ‘Can’t blame a Romulan for trying.’

Later in the participation, Canton Delaware agreed to see what I invited him to see, one of those TARDIS props that I purchased. I learned from my human wife and kids to appreciate certain responses from humans, and so I pleasantly watched Canton Delaware’s response as he looked at the TARDIS prop for a little while. After he responded, I then told him that I purchased the TARDIS prop, and I was showing certain people the TARDIS props that I purchased. The reason that I showed him the TARDIS prop was that I was moving around from perspective to perspective, helping those with their Kryptonian related issues. You don’t need an actual TARDIS to do that, but since people in general, since their perspectives are defined by their jobs, showing a few of them the TARDIS prop makes sense.

It is now 2:47PM EST for me.

I am going to close this list now. The last part of the ‘Kryptonian’ story I will explain next Thursday. I was going to finish it today, but I don’t have enough self allotted time. Like I said in the last list, I will explain idea ‘Compensate penalty’, but that idea requires a few more ideas, and I want to also explain the other ideas that will be explained after I finish explaining the ‘Kryptonian’ story, unless I change my mind again. So, if you are there next Thursday, I’ll see you then.
