I was at the green garage today. midtown detroit. a great incubator for entreuprentuers, and losers alike.
I dropped my phone, and did some silly stuff as usual. I had the great pleasure of talking with Journalist Henri Cesoli afterward, I was aimed at talking to him about the electric batter industry.
After the meeting, we hit the old miami, a veteran bar. I tried to play there as a teenager, but they wouldn’t let us in because I was 16. This was with Mike Berger, recording engineer and Vernon David, and Mikey Mike, all professional musicians.
But anyway, may be I’m a bit italian, Zapico is spanish descent, but I am from Detroit. Pepino “pepi” bitonti, who was married off to Helen Bitonti for citizenship, would beat the shit out of her, keep his food locked in a safe, and drop boiling oil under the deck and floor because they had chickens.
Pepi Bitonti was a fugitive who fleed Italy for killing his officer during world war one. I saw helen a couple times, and she gave me a golden dollar but she was locked in an old person’s home. Some of my earliest memories are of the italian side screaming at my mom for accusations of stealing a plastic cup. She grew up as an orphan during the depression. She taught my mother, Deanna Lauren Kingins Bitonti, how to sew, and worked with legends such as CLO Green, Black Mafia Family under the direction of 50cent (Curtis Jackson #7 or whatever, white people names, who is a vet but jamaica queens can’t get a dollar out of me, this is the motor fucking city), Superman/Batman with Affleck, and with Ruth Carter, who arguably costumed the most racist movie of the year 2025. Extremely talented seamstress and designer. But she’s still a bitch, according to her siblings, per usual. They call her “big D”.
Anyway, with Cesoni, an expert journalist in the auto industry, dating a total hottie, total stud, younger black girl, anyway we talked about the auto industry.
So we started about complaining about AI, but then shifted to the auto industy, EVs, and data centers, a hot topic.
This is an AI generated summary of the transcript below, because devs are lazy (did not work).
Violence Against Women
I have actually hit women several times (this is a joke). It was under instruction of Dr. Sensoli once. I’m good at anticipating someone’s head movement so he had me bop her in the forehead for a few rounds. And then at Eric McGuire’s gym he let me fight a teenage girl. It was fine I was kinda getting beat, but I wasn’t going to knock her teeth out. Her dad was watching. And, yes, I think it’s important for women to learn self defense or do a bit of fighting. Prof Kris Mager’s, as a while belt always emphasized escape as a first line of defense. He earned his black-belt under Xande Riberio, a legend. But no, in general I’m not thinking about hitting women, or men at all, unless for sport, or assaulted. There was a really funny of a high school girl fight and one knew BJJ and whipped her on the ground, I can’t find it…
Here, found it. Girl fights are the best. OSS.
But the boys, in BJJ and boxing were always trying to beat the snot out of eachother. Funny guys.
Any way, recommended Detroit area gyms, mostly depending on location, all champion producing gyms, are: 313 (Fabio is a Marcelo Garcia blackbelt, but got hit by a car, but byron and zack are cool), Legion (Chris “big chris,” Wisniewsky and some brazilian named mattheus), (Detroit BJJ, with Danny Agemi and some other guys, Danny is another Riberio black belt along with Kris Majors in Ann Arbor at Ursa).
It’s a bit physical for m/w but there are all female classes. She’d whoop my ass but I’d fight Ronda Rousey for like 1mm, fuck it.
