Salutations.

It is now 6:50AM EST for me.

I’m going to begin around 8:40AM EST, about 2 hours from now.

In a recent list, I recommended to the men I gave advice to to wear oversized jeans to have an extra belt in case the belt that they are currently using breaks. If you have a place in your job to put it in, that would be useful. Now, I recommend for you to practice at home wearing that pair of jeans and belt as if that part of the belt broke. I recommend that you put it in a loop in a way that can still hold your pants up without using that metal thing that goes in the hole. If you have a little experience with that, and you can manage using the belt without that metal thing being used, then even if the belt breaks, let’s say it breaks while you are at work, your experience looping the belt should allow you to continue working. When you get home, you can throw away that belt and replace it.

So, if you are there around 8:40AM EST, I’ll see you then.

It is now 9:04AM EST for me.

I am going to look for that music video and trailer now. When I come back later today, I will explain what I will type in today. I’ll see you then.

It is now 10:04AM EST for me.

Wow! It took me less than an hour to find and prepare a music video and tv series trailer to recommend to you. You get some good days.

The music video, refurbished with inapproprieities removed for advice, that I watched for the 1st time and recommend for this advice, is called ‘Seven (feat. Latto)’ by Jung Kook. I’ll begin with a quote from wikipedia about the music video:

‘ An accompanying music video, directed by Bradley & Pablo,[17] was released alongside the song and features South Korean actress Han So-hee as Jungkook’s girlfriend. Chronicling an entire week (in reference to the song’s lyrics), the video depicts Jungkook comedically attempting to win back Han’s affection, often to her annoyance. ‘

‘ The video opens with Jungkook and Han arguing at a restaurant on Monday, during which an earthquake causes a chandelier to crash down from the ceiling onto a table and the walls to explode.[18] On Tuesday, he hangs off the window of a train she is on to serenade her and walks atop the train as she switches cars.[19] On Wednesday, Jungkook tries to capture her attention at a flooding laundromat, to which she responds angrily. On Thursday, he is hit by a car while attempting to give her flowers. On Friday, Jungkook follows her during a rainstorm, which culminates with him being blown away by the wind. Latto appears during Jungkook’s funeral on Saturday and performs her verse atop his coffin at one point before he suddenly resurrects and greets Han. On Sunday, Jungkook sings to her while on a suspended platform. At the end of the video, which returns to the rainstorm on Friday, Han eventually reaches for Jungkook’s hand and the two walk away together in the rain. ‘

I believe it is better to give you an idea of what the music video is like 1st, to help you decide whether or not to watch it.

And here is a quote to the lyrics song ‘Seven’:

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday (A week)
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Seven days a week
Every hour, every minute, every second
You know night after night
I’ll be lovin’ you right
Seven days a week

I found music video ‘Seven’ by selecting from www.youtube.com publisher ‘MUSIC CHARTS’, select ‘VIDEOS’, select ‘Top 40 Songs Of The Week – August 19, 2023 (UK Singles Chart)’, about 3 minutes into the video clip selection, ‘Seven’ is #25 out of 100.

To watch music video ‘Seven’, search in www.youtube.com phrase ‘seven jung’, and it should be one of the 1st selections offered, with 162M views! It was published 1 month ago by publisher ‘HYBE LABELS’.

This is how I recommend you watch the music video. It goes along with what was said in wikipedia. Here is the quote:

‘ Chronicling an entire week (in reference to the song’s lyrics), the video depicts Jungkook comedically attempting to win back Han’s affection, often to her annoyance. ‘

Don’t interact with the images presented literally. It’s a music video. There are dangerous scenes in it, so identify the scenes in the music video as a metaphor to convey a meaning, not to be interacted with literally, except for the notion from wikipedia, that ‘Jungkook is comedically attempting to win back Han’s affection, often to her annoyance.

For the sake of continuity, to use the music video for the idea, let’s say that the reason Jungkook’s girlfriend is upset with him is because he forgot the day they 1st met, not the day they decided to be in a relationship together. And when that anniversary date arrived, and Jungkook did not acknowledge it, even when his girlfriend explained it to him(his way out of getting into more trouble with his girlfriend, but that didn’t even work), she decided to temporarily discontinue interacting with Jungkook in a relationship context. As soon as that happened, Jungkook, in a manner of speaking, created that music video called ‘Seven’.

His girlfriend wanted 2 things to happen before the relationship continued. 1)that Jungkook committed in his mind the importance of that date, and 2)that she no longer felt upset to her compromised satisfaction that she no longer felt upset over what Jungkook did. So, after ‘seven’ days, she held Jungkook’s hand as an indication that the relationship was back into ‘active’ status.

—

There’s only 1 scene I’m concerned enough about to type about, to prepare you for it. It starts 2 minutes and 6 seconds into the music video, the funeral scene. That’s also the scene when Latto sings/does her performance. It’s great that 2 different nationalities are working together in the song and music video. Anyway, for this advice, it’s just to be watched as a metaphor to convey a meaning, not to be taken literally, except that Jungkook is still apologizing to his girlfriend for what he has done. In my opinion, he should have used some of that effort to show his girlfriend that he is at least understanding more what he has done wrong. If he did that, there may be more development involved, even though it may still take a week before his girlfriend finally gets over it.

The tv series trailer that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘SPELLBOUND Trailer (2023) Hailey Romain, Etienne Moana, Drama Series’. I’ll give 1st a wikipedia quote and a quote from link variety.com that I found searching in www.google.com for phrase ‘spellbound tv series reviews’:

from wikipedia.org:

‘ Spellbound is an upcoming English-language tween fantasy television series. Produced by ZDF and Cottonwood Media, it serves as a successor series to Find Me in Paris (2018–2020), set in the same location of the Paris Opera Ballet School, but with a new cast of characters and a focus on magic rather than time travel. The series will premiere on Hulu on 31 August 2023. ‘

—

from variety.com:

‘ …weaving a story where witchcraft, like ballet, work cohesively as fantasy metaphors of a girl’s discovery of sense of self. ‘

‘ “Witchcraft is so often used for coming-of-age stories for a reason. It’s about discovering who you are as a person, whilst dance is also about discovering and mastering your body,” said Michel. ‘

—

I found it by selecting in www.youtube.com publisher ‘Movie Coverage’, select ‘VIDEOS’, then select ‘SPELLBOUND Trailer (2023) Hailey Romain, Etienne Moana, Drama Series’.

—

In my opinion, when I watched the trailer, I like the effect of ballerina dancing being mixed in with magic.

Disappoint:

It is now 10:56AM EST for me. I am getting ready the references that I will use for idea ‘Disappoint’. It’ll take a few minutes.

—

It is now 11:15AM EST for me.

I want to say that, as usual, I’ve never explained this idea before, and I don’t have other variations of these ideas presented to anyone. This is the 1st time that I’m typing this in. As usual, it’s just in my mind 1st.

In the last list, Wishlist #1395, I recommended, refurbished with inapproprieities removed, that you watch tv series ‘Platonic(2023)’ and use the show as a reference for disappointments that should not be tolerated and surpassed for certain expectations. As refurbished proof, when most of the people in Will’s(Seth Rogen) life tried to do it with his constant insistance, his wife divorced him, and his business partners partially alienated him from certain business dealings, fearing that he would ruin such dealings with his philosophy of interacting with disappointments. Most of us don’t have our own businesses, and I recommended that the example is to be used to help mitigate certain experienced instigations, no offense as to how the show is interpreted literally.(More is said in the previous list.)

In this 2nd part of idea ‘Disappoint’, I used the efforts of an imagined business/company. This company developed a practice for at least most of it’s employees to use. Based on the fact that it’s ‘on the company dime’, that the use of this practice is in no way affecting their own income, they developed a perspective that, at least for the short term, is to be integrated into their company business practices. The purpose of this practice/perspective is to avoid the disappointment interactions illustrated by the main characters of tv series ‘Platonic(2023)’. The company even quoted the tv series directly. The company wants a ‘hands on’ interaction with what certain disappointments are associated with, but they also don’t want their employees to need to surpass and tolerate such disappointments. For example, the reasons why Audrey, Will’s wife from tv series ‘Platonic’ got a divorce from Will, and the reasons why Will’s business associates alienated/did not disclose certain business dealings with Will. In other words, the company wanted their employees to eat some sort of hybrid, like eating a seedless orange.

I am going to make a story where I am talking to Will from the series ‘Platonic’. For the sake of simplicity, Will works for the company, and is being introduced to this practice/perspective by me. I have chosen as my avatar, the person who will represent me in the story, to be a main character from the sci-fi tv series ‘Babylon 5’. The character is Delenn(Mira Furlan). If you are not familiar with the character Delenn, you can use a scene from episode 4.13 ‘Rumors, Bargains and Lies’ from tv series ‘Babylon 5(1997)’. That episode is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene starts about 12 minutes and 50 seconds into the episode. Here is the quote:

Delenn: ‘I need your help.’

Neroon(John Vickery): ‘My help? I remind you that not very long ago I fought to keep you from taking control of the Rangers. We have not exactly been friends.’

Delenn: ‘No, but your actions have always been motivated by one desire, to do what is right for our people.’

—

All right. Here is a correction explanation of the practice/perspective of how disappointment is used in the company. In the story, Will is already complaining about using that practice/perspective, that they should be given more active merit, and not dismissed so easily. Will is already exposed to the practice/perspective, and I was sent by the company to introduce to Will another program that is associated with that practice/perspective, one that can be used to help employees to acclimate more to it’s use.

So, here’s the story, I via my avatar Delenn is talking to Will, and I am offering him via permission from the company the option to re-visit any 1 week, 7 consecutive days, any participation Will has had with the practice/perspective, and the company will suspend all practice created disappointments within that week. Will can address those suspended disappointments, even resolve them if he can.

Since this story is just imagined, such a program has been around for some time now, and it made a deal with the company that owns the ‘Superman’ logo to use their logo for that program. I via my Delenn avatar introduce Will to the Superman fitting room. During that week, if Will chooses to accept participation, he is to wear or have something associated with that Superman logo, and he is allowed to move around within the company wearing such a logo. The Superman room will custom tailor suits and casual clothing that has the Superman logo on it. The actual Superman suit that Superman wears, the one with the cape, is also available to him, but he is to use his common sense and is told to refrain from wearing that suit when moving around within the company. If he is to wear his own clothing without any obvious Superman logo, then he is to have some sort of item with the Superman logo on it, and there are many items in the Superman room available for him to use. When an employee asks to see proof that he is indeed participating in that program, he is to present that item to the employee that requests such proof.

Even though the company has some years experience with that Superman program, there are always a few employees that will complain about it’s participants, whether they are new employees, or whether they are veteran employees. The company also has a lot of experience interacting with such complaints.(In other words, you’re not going to lose your job simply because other employees are complaining about your participation with such a program.)

Towards the end of our conversation, I said to Will quote:

Delenn: ‘I am going to imagine talking to Oberoth(David Ogden Stiers) about getting a ZPM.'(based on episode 4.2 ‘Lifeline’ from sci-fi tv series ‘Stargate: Atlantis(2007)’. You may watch the episode in relation to advice. The episode is available streaming from Amazon.com. The episode contains the scene when Sheppard took a ZPM from the replicators. I have refurbished that episode as a reference to request a ZPM from the replicators, at 1st imagining talking to Oberoth.)

—

Will said quote:

Will: ‘Isn’t that just imagining, and it’s not real?’

I said back via Delenn:

Delenn: ‘I heard what you said.’

—

To explain, I heard what Will said to me, but I did not agree to address it.

To conceptualize what Will does within that 1st week, I recommend that you use a scene from the movie ‘About Time(2013)’ starring Domhnall Gleeson as Tim. The movie ‘About Time’ is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene start about 30 minutes and 28 seconds into the movie, when Tim discovered that the Lawyer in the Play(Richard E. Grant)had forgotten his lines, and Tim left the play to go back in time to give the Lawyer in the Play his lines via words written in cardboard. You may imagine Will leaving that play and he has chosen to change that outcome. Refurbish that scene. Instead of Tim time traveling, it’s Will resolving certain suspended disappointments as he is moving around from within the company.

This is also part of the 2nd part of the idea for idea ‘Disappoint’. Since I just imagined it, this story is another example of other employees using the practice/perspective. Basically, after only a few years, the many divisions of the company would no longer need to use that disappointment perspective. They have the experience for it, they ‘get it’, and they seemingly no longer have a use for it. It served it’s purpose. However, some of the employees continue to use it because of the perks that they discovered by using it. After all, the disappointments are associated with certain opportunities, and over time, the employees have created a sort of network interaction with certain benefits from such a program, like ‘free parking’ and other benefits associated with their lifestyle jobs.

I added the lawyer Diane Lockhart(Christine Baranski) as a visiting participant, so that she can interact with that disappointment perspective. Soon after using it, she met one of her clients portrayed by celebrity Armand Assante(The Hunley(1999). And as soon as they started talking, you get to hear the song ‘Just Another’ by Peter Yorn as it is represented by a scene in the movie ‘The Man from Elysian Fields(2001)’. The movie is available streaming on Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene starts 1 hour, 6 minutes, and 17 seconds into the movie, when the song ‘Just Another’ is playing in the background, the main characters Byron and Dena forgot something that they bought from the store, and one of the employees came out of the store to give them those items. Just that scene extrapolated. But instead of Peter Yorn singing it, celebrity Kevin Bacon based on his singing performance with guitar from the movie ‘The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special(2022)’ is singing it. The movie is available streaming from the streaming service ‘Disney plus’. When I watched that movie, I didn’t watch Kevin Bacon sing while playing the guitar, but I’m still using that scene as a reference.

So this is how, recommended, that you may imagine it. When you imagine Armand Assante as a business employee talking to Diane Lockhart, they’re just talking amicably. Diane is married, and Armand Assante is just talking cordially to Diane, like they are talking during a social event. Mr. Assante is introducing her to the neighborhood that he is familiar with in that area, along with other perks/benefits he is offering her. He is also giving Diane a tour of his nearby greenhouse, and he’s talking about the plants and flowers that he is attending within it. Basically, if you choose to imagine Diane and Mr. Assante talking in that context, you may also imagine Kevin Bacon playing the guitar nearby singing the song ‘Just Another’ by Peter Yorn. For example, you see/conceptualize/imagine Diane and Mr. Assante talking one moment, and in that imagined area, you can then change your vantage point to see Kevin Bacon playing his guitar singing ‘Just Another’. You can change the vantage points.

That Kevin Bacon singing ‘Just Another’ while Diane and Mr. Assante are talking via the disappointments perspective is meant to promote the possible benefits associated with using such a perspective.

—

Keep in mind that idea ‘Disappoint’ is meant to help you more tenably experience certain mild to moderate forms of instigation, not to be interacted with literally. For example, the disappointment’s perspective program was made for that specific company, but if you were to create results outside of that company, let’s say while in a company that does not subscribe to such a perspective, even though you may achieve the results that you want, many company employees may complain, since such a created result is also associated with a lot of disappointments that haven’t even been addressed!

—

It is now 1:05PM EST for me.

I am going to close this list now. Next Thursday, I will explain idea ‘Do something’. It should lead into variations that may eventually lead to the current idea that I am actively using, an idea that I recently(within the week) invented, and I contemplationally call the idea ‘React solve’, but that will take some time to explain, unless I change my mind again. So, if you are there next Thursday, I’ll see you then.

—

I forgot to give you a quote from the lyrics to song ‘Just Another’:

You were lying wide awake in the garden,
trying to get over your stardom,
and I could never see you depart us
and you’re my baby,
you’re just another girl.

—

If you want to hear the song without the movie, you can search for phrase in www.youtube.com ‘just another peter yorn’, and there is one link from publisher ‘dolly day dream’ published 11 years ago that has the song, or there are other links that have the song using that phrase to search for.
