Meme stocks like GameStop are soaring like it’s 2021 [Vox] congrats to those who invested. I haven’t got a salary check since 2019, therefore blame my previous employers. In any case, gaming is going nowhere, I own LEFRENZY.com now. LEFRENZY is my username on PLAYSTATION NETWORK (PSN). We got lots of gaming to do, I will be an Influencer in the world of gaming, just like Greg Miller is doing on Kinda Funny Games. Right now, I am a one-man-army, but I cater to many audiences. Specifically people/students/veterans who deal with #MentalHealth, people who need #EmotionalSupport, people curious about #MusicTherapy, and raise awareness about my chronic illness: #EhlersDanlosSyndrome.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1179 & BENKYO RADIO 1179. As always, AFWERX (and SPACEWERX for that matter) are doing incredible things, in the world of Research & Development (R&D) for the United States Air Force & Space Force. I have made large contributions to both entities (not to be confused with tities), and thankfully, now I own an EIN/DUNS number thanks to my new corporation ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC, and look forward to work in conjunction with the local AFB, which I guess is Travis AFB, on an SBIR paperwork, for the greater good of American military might, and keep this nation secure against all enemies, foreign (China/Russia for example) or domestic (Trump trying to hijack our nuclear arsenal). Anyway, there’s a lot of work on the horizon. Let’s get to it.
