Salutations.

It is now 8:23PM EST for me.

I ordered food from UberEats less than an hour ago, and I think that I will order food this soon from now on. At the time that I ordered the food a day earlier, that made sense to me. However, I am acclimating to ordering food an hour or so earlier before I start typing in this blog, or even while I am typing in this blog. I ate some of the food that I ordered, and I have the rest in a container, not in the fridge, available for me to eat later.

I have decided to type in a ‘strategy idea’, but the idea includes a bookmark called ‘Attention’, which addresses how certain instigations may adversely affect your us of attention, as it relates to the experienced instigation. I believe that it’s better for me to type in ideas that involve attention before explaining that strategy idea. So, this is the list that I’ll offer you an idea that involves attention, and then that’s it. The next scheduled list, next Monday, 5/27/2024, I’ll offer you that ‘strategy idea’ that contains bookmark ‘Attention’.

But before typing in that idea that involves attention, I want to offer you an idea that, by design/intent, is meant to prepare you more for the upcoming ‘strategy idea’. That idea was created soon after I watched a scene from the crime comedy series ‘Elsbeth(2024)’. It involves an acting portrayal from actor Danny Mastrogiorgio(Detective Bobby Smullen), and the idea is called ‘Unrequited aspiring’. That’s the main reference I used to create the idea for myself. However, to explain it in a way that you can use it more, I will also all 2 illustration references from the movie ‘Chief of Station(2024)’ starring Aaron Eckhart as Benjamin Malloy. Because I started late again, I will very likely finish the ‘Unrequited aspiring’ idea, but I may have to be very sloppy when explaining the idea that has attention in it. Of course, if available time permits, I’ll type more. I am ready for that. It is always available time that shortens what I am able to explain in this blog.

As to recommendations from Amazon.com, it’s just candy. At the last minute, so to speak, yesterday, I ordered more Jolly Ranchers candy, 16 oz of cherry instead of 8 oz of watermelon, and I placed half? of that candy in the 8 oz container, since the 16 oz came in a pouch instead of a container. Here is the product description from Amazon.com:

Jolly Rancher Cherry Hard Candy, Individually Wrapped, Bulk Candy Bag – 1 Pound (16 oz)

—

Even though it would have been delivered by today, I wanted it delivered in the morning, so I chose the extra option for that, which adds a few dollars more to the order. Right now, I have one of those cherry Jolly Ranchers in my mouth. I’m causing the hard candy to dissolve in my mouth. One of the perks to eating hard candy is that you dissolve it in your mouth. Most candies I think you chew it. Hard candy may take several minutes before it is dissolved completely, and that’s fine by me.

I don’t have a lot of Jolly Ranchers hard candy, because I plan to just try new candies first. I ordered it again because I was in a rush to eat something before I started typing in this blog, and even though I already tried ‘Jolly Ranchers’, I wasn’t prepared, since I just tried to order more candy yesterday. I ordered a few more candies, but they just arrived earlier today, and I haven’t tried them yet. Next time, hopefully, I will be more prepared. I can’t think of anything else from Amazon.com, just the candy.

I want to repeat myself for something that I said several times before, ‘Standard demographic is not standard’, meaning that, even though I call these ideas ‘standard demorgraphic’ ideas, they are not ‘standard’ ideas. Think of it this way: since kids could be reading this, when you get jobs as adults, and you work for a company that integrates company internet with their work, and you choose to use it’s ‘blog’, so to speak, to introduce and develop some sort of topic, you may be developing that topic for years. In this situation, it is my intent to give you advice for mild to moderate forms of exposed instigation, so that you may manage such experiences better. If a person makes such a blog, it’s very likely, in my opinion, that that person will continue making ideas for it. The ‘standard’ is that, for most situations, you shouldn’t even be experiencing such instigations. But if you have problems with experienced instigation, and you read someone’s blog that’s trying to help with that, they will probably continue to make ideas for years, if they choose to, but it’s also important to remember that, for the most part, you shouldn’t even be experiencing instigation.

It is now 9:03PM EST for me.

I am going to look for a music video and trailer to recommend to you. It should take, based on past performance, about an hour and a half for me to select and prepare them for recommendation. I’ll see you then.

—

It is now 10:25PM EST for me.

I took a short break after finding and preparing the music video and trailer. I probably finished finding and preparing them in about an hour.

The music video that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘we can’t be friends’ by Ariana Grande. Here is a review from link ca.style.yahoo.com that explains the music video and song:

‘ Directed by Christian Breslaur, who also helmed “Yes, And?”, the video shows Grande erasing the memories of an ex, played by Evan Peters. The video ultimately ends with her completing the procedure…and him doing the same. They pass each other with different partners, unaware they had ever known each other.

As for the song itself, the lyrics reflect on the end of a relationship and the reality that she and her former partner cannot be friends or stay together because she cannot be her full self around him. (“I didn’t think you’d understand me / How could you ever even try? / I don’t wanna tiptoe, but I don’t wanna hide.”) ‘

—

And here is a quote from the lyrics:

We can’t be friends
But I’d like to just pre-etend
You cling to your papers and pens
Wait until you like me again
Wait for your love
My love, I’ll wait for your love
I’ll wait for your love
My love, I’ll wait for your love

—

I found it in www.youtube.com by selecting publisher ‘Hot Music Charts’, select ‘Videos’, then select ‘Top Songs of the Week | May 17, 2024’, published 4 days ago. A video clip from the song starts about 8 minutes and 13 seconds into the video clip collection, and is #20 out of 100.

To watch the music video, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘we can’t be friends’, and it should be one of the 1st selections offered, with over 93M views! It was published 2 months ago by publisher Ariana Grande.

I recommend that you start watching the music video about 53 seconds into it, a few seconds before the words of the song start. Just like the review said, at the end of the video, ‘…They pass each other with different partners, unaware they had ever known each other. ‘ I like the way the music video illustrated several moments of her previous relationship with the man she ended the relationship with.

The tv series trailer that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘The Lord of The Rings: The Rings of Power – Official Teaser Trailer’. I found it by selecting in www.youtube.com publisher ‘ONE Media Coverage’, select ‘Videos’, then I looked at just the face of ‘ONE Media Coverage’s version of it. I didn’t watch it. Instead, I searched in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘the rings of power season 2 trailer’, and selected ‘The Lord of The Rings: The Rings of Power – Official Teaser Trailer | Prime Video’ from publisher ‘Prime Video’, which has almost 13M views, and was published May 14, 2024. According to www.google.com:

‘ How many seasons will Rings of Power have?
The Rings of Power season 2 won’t be the series’ final installment. Payne and McKay have planned for five seasons, which is already mapped out. Based on reports on February, The Rings of Power season 3 is already in development, too. ‘

—

Here is a quote from www.google.com about season 2:

‘ Darkness will bind them. The Rings Of Power returns August 29 on Prime Video.

About The Rings of Power Season 2: Sauron has returned. Cast out by Galadriel, without army or ally, the rising Dark Lord must now rely on his own cunning to rebuild his strength and oversee the creation of the Rings of Power, which will allow him to bind all the peoples of Middle-earth to his sinister will. Building on Season 1’s epic scope and ambition, Season 2 of Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power plunges even its most beloved and vulnerable characters into a rising tide of darkness, challenging each to find their place in a world that is increasingly on the brink of calamity. Elves and dwarves, orcs and men, wizards and Harfoots… as friendships are strained and kingdoms begin to fracture, the forces of good will struggle ever more valiantly to hold on to what matters to them most of all… each other. ‘

—

If you watched Season 1, then you’ll probably would want to watch Season 2.

It is now 10:57PM EST for me.

I’m going to take a short nap, and then start typing again to explain idea ‘Unrequited aspiring(revisited)’. I’ll see you then.

—

It is now 11:39PM EST for me.

I am now eating a mini Heath.(I think it’s peanut brittle inside covered with chocolate.) I bought a pack of it from the supermarket I would normally shop in.

Unrequited aspiring:

Here’s a quote from episode 1.5 ‘Ball Girl’ from crime tv series ‘Elsbeth(2024)’. I’ll use the streaming service from Paramount+, but it’s also available streaming from Amazon.com. The quote starts about 32 minutes and 18 seconds into the episode:

Detective Bobby Smullen(Danny Mastrogiorgio): ‘I mean, you may think that you’re Danny Ocean, but you’re not as good at this crime stuff as you think you are.’

Ashlee(Aubrey Matalon): ‘Danny who?’

Detective Bobby Smullen: ‘From the movie.’

Ashlee: ‘Da… ‘(shakes her head.)

Detective Bobby Smullen: ‘Never mind.’

—

When I watched it for the 1st time, Detective Bobby Smullen looked disappointed when he wasn’t able to relate to Ashlee. After Ashlee shook her head, not understanding what Smullen said to her, he expressed disappointment. I think they? changed that scene. Soon after thinking about how Smullen reacted, and according to www.imdb.com, the episode aired Apr 18, 2024, so that gives you an approximate time when I invented this idea, I imagined him thinking about an opportunity, but as soon as he thought of it’s associated unrequited aspiring, he looked disappointed to himself, and discarded the use of that opportunity.

Soon after that, I imagined Detective Smullen making a business arrangement with a young woman. All he has to do is accompany her throughout an entire day, and when she initiates an unrequited aspiring, he is supposed to react disappointed, not as if he’s acting, but in a sincere manner. When Detective Smullen was with her throughout most of that day, she was very cordial and respectful to her. He didn’t have to react in a disappointed manner, and he was very surprised about that. It was when he was attending a social event with that young woman that she expressed a very obvious form of unrequited aspiring to him, and that is when Detective Smullen did his best to look sincerely disappointed with that experience. The young woman then proceeded to talk to the other guests, still complaining about what Detective Smullen did.

The young woman wanted to make sure that the guests responded to what she was about to do, so she also hired celebrity David Spade to witness and circulate the unrequited aspiring that took place in that moment. I didn’t watch it, but I remember the name ‘David Spade: Take the Hit’. According to www.imdb.com, it’s a tv special that David Spade was starring in. David Spade was in the party, walked towards Detective Smullen, and said ‘Ouch!’ to him. Detective Smullen then said to David Spade quote: ‘I just did what I was supposed to do.'(He said something else originally, but I only casually imagined that event, and I don’t remember exactly what he initially said to David Spade. And, of course, I only imagined it.)

—

Here’s what I recommend: Just imagine what Detective Smullen imagined, imagine conceptually an opportunity considered, and then an associated unrequited aspiring for that opportunity, and then the opportunity is no longer considered. To start you off, imagine it as colored aluminum foil. You can search for phrase ‘colored aluminum foil’ in www.google.com, click ‘images’, to see what that looks like. For example, 2 pieces of colored aluminum foil, the bigger, rectangular piece is the opportunity, but the smaller rectangular piece is the unrequited disappointment, and they’re stuck together, and it looks like a strip of colored aluminum foil with 2 colors. That way, you can imagine and conceptualize what it is as you are holding it.

It’s original causality is to be an opportunity that is considered, and shortly after the consideration process, an unrequited aspiring is thought of, and that unrequited aspiring causes many people in America to discard/not use that opportunity. That is it’s original, 1st form.

For idea ‘Unrequited aspiring’, I recommend that you manage that piece of unrequited aspiring better. I’m not saying that many Americans are wrong thinking that way. I’m saying that, if you choose to, you can create another sense of preparing, another perspective, and manage that use of unrequited aspiring better that just using it’s standard, very common form of considering a certain opportunity, and then discarding/not using it. If you choose to use idea ‘Unrequited aspiring’, here are 2 quotes from the movie ‘Chief of Station(2024)’ starring Aaron Eckhart as Benjamin Malloy, Jonathan Ajayi as Desmond Jackson, and Olga Kurylenko as Krystyna Kowerski. The movie is available streaming on Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, the 1st scene starts about 18 minutes and 33 seconds into the movie:

Benjamin Malloy: ‘Hey, you don’t need to hold my hand. I can do this.’

—

18 minutes and 51 seconds:

Benjamin Malloy: ‘I need you to hold my hand.’

—

1 hour, 3 minutes, and 52 seconds:

Benjamin Malloy: You’ve been following me since I arrived, haven’t you? You were on the motorcycle. How do I know I can trust you?’

Krystyna Kowerski: (edited) (scoffs) ‘I saved your life back there. Choose your next accusation carefully.’

Benjamin Malloy: ‘Thank you.’

—

Really quickly, since I am a single man, I meet who I think is a single, attractive woman, and I want to be in a relationship with her. So, in a situation that I can use these words, let’s say I say something, then she scoffs and says something like ‘Choose your next accusation carefully.’, or maybe she doesn’t have to say anything like that. The circumstance is already there. And then I quickly say to her:

Me: ‘Thank you.’

—

Hopefully, that may lead into me being in a relationship with her, and we can skip all of that other dating formality.

The point of those 2 illustration references, not the one that I added(I’m just not commenting on that one.), but the references from the movie ‘Chief of Station’, is that Benjamin Malloy changed his mind very quickly. Oh, also just use those 2 references. Throw away the rest of the movie. There’s too much violence in it. There’s even a scene when Benjamin Malloy was tortured. If you want to watch more of that movie, then at least remove all of the inapproprieities from it. Don’t use them, including any scenes of turture, or you can just use the 2 references I recommended, and just throw away the rest of the movie, for simplicity.

So, the 1st example I am offering you for idea ‘Unrequited aspiring’ is the possibility that you may change your mind later. In the movie ‘Chief of Station’, just using those 2 illustration references I typed in, Benjamin Malloy changed his mind twice, and he did so very quickly. He didn’t need ‘more time’ to think it through. He already had it ready, and he used it.

I just thought of this recently, during the time I’m using this blog right now. If it’s possible to ‘change your mind’ about using certain opportunities discarded/not used because of unrequited aspiring, then maybe it’s possible that many students are more objectively talking about certain opportunities, of course reasonable opportunities, that have the identity of having certain unrequited aspirings that would cause them to be discarded, but they are talking about them as if their use is still yet to be determined! In other words, it looks like a ‘no’ but is discussed as a possible ‘yes’. In the 2 illustration examples that I provided, Benjamin Malloy already turned 2 ‘no’s into 2 ‘yes’s very quickly.

So, when imagining that 2 colored aluminum foil, I recommend that you imagine that reasonable ‘no’ could also be construed as a possible ‘yes’, even though it looks like a reasonable ‘no’.

—

One more example. I’m using a scene, refurbished with inapproprieties removed of course, from movie ‘Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol(2011)’ starring Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt, Simon Pegg as Benji, and Jeremy Renner as Brandt. The movie is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene starts 54 minutes and 58 seconds into the movie:

Ethan Hunt: ‘Vent ducts.’

Benji: ‘Pressure sensitive.’

Brandt: ‘Not enough time.’

Ethan Hunt: ‘Elevator shaft.’

Benji: ‘Infared sensors.’

Brandt: ‘Not enough time.’

Ethan Hunt: ‘How am I supposed to do this?’

Benji: (throws gloves at window.)

—

Ethan Hunt was treating an option as an unrequited aspiring/discarded/not to be used, but Benji and Brandt presented the option that the only option available was the option that he is treating as not available. And, of course, just use it’s logic, and throw away everything else that’s reckless and dangerous from the movie. What Ethan Hunt did afterwards was obviously very dangerous to do, and is part of the action movie, not to be emulated/done by anyone.

—

Here’s another example: Just treat those reasonable opportunities that look like they have been discarded by unrequited aspirings, imagine a playing card as one of those discarded opportunities, imagine presenting many such cards as separate discarded opportunities by unrequited aspirings, and then consider those many discarded opportunities as possible ‘yes’s given the right circumstances, or if circumstances change.

You don’t have to imagine that. It’s just an idea.

You can imagine just holding an entire deck of cards, and that all of those cards are discarded opportunities that could be changed into actively used opportunities, if circumstances change.

—

It is now 1:28AM EST for me.

I am going to close this list now. This coming Monday/next Tuesday, I will finally explain a ‘strategy idea’, unless I change my mind again. So, if you are there, I’ll see you then.
