Happy BHM.

So, the post break up talk was swift and we're still friends, so that's whatever.


More importantly, just sent some good ass java programs to a Tech Lead so I can get a role change, and the game I was working on in Global Game Jam got an award!


So at least the end of January went well!

BLACK WORKERS EARN 23 PERCENT LESS THAN WHITE COUNTERPARTS: U.K. STUDY

Black workers in the U.K. earn on average almost a quarter less than white workers with similar qualifications, at all levels of education, according to research by Labour think tank the Trades Union Congress (TUC).

A study of Labour Force Survey figures for 2014 and 2015 by TUC reveals that the average pay gap between black and white workers amounts to 23 percent.

According to TUC, white graduates earn £18.63 ($26.57) an hour, compared with £14.33 ($20.43) earned by black university graduates. The gap is prominent at other levels of qualification as well, as on average black workers with A-levels earn 14 percent less than their white counterparts, while the difference between black and white workers with GCSEs is 11 percent.

Oh shit, it's BHM already. Second best thing about the month is removing the first person on my Facebook that posts something about "there oughta be a white history month".
 
My LJ account turned 15 years old yesterday. I have very few posts lately (like, one a year over the past 4), but it was kinda neat to click back to the entries I made while still in freakin' high school and read stuff I wrote back then.

It's a good thing I decided to make everything pre 2007 mass-private a long time ago

This inspired me to look back at mine and

I'm so embarrassed. This is so cringey. This was a mistake.

Apparently I really wanted to learn to ski six years ago. I've tried since then and I disliked it. That's the mildest thing.


Not in Brazil.

Not in the Bahamas either.

17year old AoL login still works

I think AOL tombstoned my account, attempting to log in just tells me it has no recovery options and that I have to call them. I still remember winning a contest they held to extend my members.aol.com webspace from 4MB to 12MB.

At least things are looking up for you.
 
Man, Morgan Freeman...

That 60 minutes interview still pisses me off to this day. I hate when white people reference it, I doubly hate it when black people reference it.

Fuckery fuel.

Pretty sure he's Australian..they seem real down with fuckery on GAF. Post racial and all that jazz.

I'm betting shit is gonna slide plenty..

Austrian actually.

I'm real tempted to post the "Why 'I don't see color' is a copout" article as a thread. I'm certain people will love hearing how their utopian "all bleed the same" worldview is utter bullshit.

....

Ima put that kickstarter on reddit.

I'm just waiting for the moment when both MLK and Morgan Freeman are referenced in a stupid manner. Sprinkle a little devil's advocate on top as well.

I was browsing through YouTube's Live broadcasts last night. There is a guy that I have never watched, but seems to get his material from that interview. He is a Black guy and his stream titles are all about self-hate. He has about 1200 people watching at all times, but I am not giving him my time. Last night was - "Why do Blacks ignore Black Crime?", another night was "The Myth of Black Love".

Hey guys, so after a terrible and insensitive joke I made in another thread (again, sorry) I found out February is Black History Month (I knew this month existed but not that it was in February). So what actually happens in February because of this? School projects? Theatre plays? I really have no idea, there's nothing comparable in Germany.
