00:00Okay, this is gonna be a bit of an odd show, and yeah, I know how many times have I
00:06said that, and the title of this video-exclusive recording today is Friday, May the 1st, 2026, welcome to Commie
00:19Day at May Day.
00:20Same thing. I am calling this Mediocre Days, but first, I want to touch on a couple other things. May
00:33Day. Reports out of Moscow, May Day celebrations muted.
00:39Not a whole bunch of missiles and tanks and personnel carriers and troops wandering through the streets of Moscow today.
00:55Why? Because Putin is worried.
00:59He can't have, he needs to put on a big display to show, hey, I'm winning this war in Ukraine,
01:09but at the same time, I can't put on this big display because Ukraine could do another deep within Russian
01:19drone attack and attack his troops live there on May Day.
01:25So, he's gotta scale that back, which is a loss for him.
01:31So, anyway, but it's rather funny.
01:38Yeah, the great display of force, and I'm gonna rebuild the Soviet Empire even beyond just expansion into Ukraine, belied
01:51by his scale-back May Day.
01:54But could you imagine, you can make excuses why I scaled it back, as opposed to not scaling it back
02:05and having it all blown up by the Ukrainians.
02:09Bigger propaganda loss than just a scaled-back version.
02:14And the other thing I was gonna throw in first, I did see the movie Michael a while ago.
02:21I'm gonna do a full review with Rick Walker on Maverick News coming soon.
02:28So, I don't wanna say much about that, other than, I give it a B, and I've done a 180
02:36from where I was before the movie.
02:38I thought, oh, you know, exploitation, ride his coattails, make some money off of Michael Jackson now that he's gone.
02:49And that may be true.
02:51It may indeed be purely exploitive.
02:55I don't know the motivations and reasonings.
02:59But now I'm to the point where I don't care.
03:04And condemn not lest ye be condemned.
03:07More to Matthew 7 than the first seven words.
03:12That's between them and God.
03:15God will judge them for whatever.
03:19But as for me, it may be exploitive.
03:23I don't care at this point in that.
03:26I say it's an important film.
03:28I just posted on it earlier, again today, on social media.
03:34Yeah, yeah, some negative aspects in his life.
03:39But if we could focus on, in the post, I attached his human nature song.
03:45And that, to me, is the most important part of the takeaway of the movie and why it is needed.
03:54So I don't care the reasoning.
03:56The fact that it's out can be helpful.
03:59And trying to focus on the parts of Michael's life where he wanted to bring joy and make the world
04:10a better place.
04:12We need more of that thought now.
04:14So I'm just going to leave it at that.
04:18It can be a positive movie for a time when it could be needed now.
04:25But Mediocre Days.
04:28Fifth book in my Life and Living series of books.
04:34TinyURL.com slash Life and Living Series.
04:40The fifth book will drop in May of 2026, coming soon.
04:46But I want to leap back to the third book in the series, my The Book of Kennedy, Project Carpe
04:55Diem.
04:56One of the points and themes in there.
05:00And I have a Suno song.
05:05TinyURL.com slash JLD on Suno.
05:11Kennedy Stares at the Ceiling.
05:13There's actually four versions of the song.
05:16I think the most popular is the unplugged acoustic version.
05:21Kennedy Stares at the Ceiling.
05:23Is life just a collection of mediocre days with some good ones thrown in?
05:32In the book, it says it.
05:33In the song, it says it.
05:36And the reality is, oh, I screwed up to start.
05:41I was going to say, today's a meh day for me.
05:44And you know what?
05:45A meh day is M-E-H, right?
05:49Meh.
05:50Like the emoji movie.
05:52Those are okay.
05:54The reality is, yes, for most people, most days are mediocre days.
06:05And we hope for better.
06:08We live for those really up good days.
06:11But the issue is, what do we do on these mediocre days?
06:20What are we doing to try to make them a little better for ourselves and others?
06:26And the point, as in all the Life and Living series of books, little things matter and add up.
06:37Smiles and whatnot.
06:38What are we doing to make our day a little and someone else's day a little brighter
06:45as we all go through these mediocre days?
06:51An analogy.
06:54Came up with this in the car.
06:56The genesis of this whole episode.
07:01A french fry and another french fry and another french fry.
07:07Like, ugh.
07:09Not very filling.
07:12But you get enough of them.
07:16You've got a good side.
07:18You've got a nice part of the meal.
07:20You've got something you can enjoy.
07:25Oh, I forgot what else I came up.
07:27I was going to say, oh, you can savor the flavor of that as part of the meal.
07:36Right?
07:37I, as an analogy, you might not think it much, but pun intended there.
07:44I'm kind of tongue-in-cheek and being a little silly with my language here.
07:51But that's a very important, serious point.
07:56The little things adding up.
08:00A few fries as part of an overall meal makes the meal.
08:05And you can savor the flavor.
08:09You know, one or two, again, you're not going to be fulfilled.
08:12But get enough of them in, it can make for less of a mediocre day.
08:20And that's true of smiles and jokes and laughs and whatnot.
08:27Little things to make the mediocre days better for yourself as well as others.
08:35So not the best of analogies.
08:38A big tongue-in-cheek.
08:39But a very serious sub-point.
08:43So yes, the reality is, is life a set of mediocre days?
08:51For most, yes, that is true.
08:54And that's not, that's not, I don't know what word I want to, it's not, I don't know what word
09:04I want here.
09:05But it, it's, it's not, not entirely bad, I don't want to say, it's not an absence of what your
09:16life should be all the time, or could be all the time.
09:20And again, we hope for more.
09:22And it's great when you can have a succession of a bunch of good days, like if, when from work
09:31you afford a week's vacation, and you go away, and for five days you're running, you know, I'm sightseeing this
09:41day, I'm doing this the next day, I'm lounging by the pool that day.
09:46And, but yes, sorry, unfortunate reality is life is generally a set of mediocre days.
09:59And that's just the reality we have to live with.
10:05What can we do on those mundane, mediocre days?
10:09Because most of our days are mundane and mediocre, does not mean the sum total of your life is mundane
10:21and mediocre, is, is kind of the point I was trying to get to here.
10:27So, let me grab the book again for the behind the scenes, the video exclusive, The Book of Kennedy, Project
10:36Carpe Diem, tinyurl.com slash life and living series, or Kennedy Stares at the Ceiling, the Four Versions, tinyurl.com
10:50slash JLD on Suno.
10:53So, today's kind of a mess for me.
10:56And you know what?
10:58I'm okay with that.
11:01That's the point.
11:02Learn to be okay with that.
11:04Understand and accept.
11:07That's life and living.
11:10That's reality, as opposed to some delusional TV series trying to say, oh, your life could be exciting every minute
11:20of every day.
11:21Like, that's not realistic for the majority of the 8 billion people on this planet.
11:32So, that's it.
11:33I just felt it important, and I came up with that lame, silly fry analogy.
11:38I really wanted to be able to work in with you.
11:42Thank you all.
11:43Take care.
11:45God bless.
11:46Love you all.
11:53Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
