Grin/Chewbacca
I didn’t keno what to call this, so I went with what I saw. More from my adventures on Melrose.

Let People Enjoy Things
As I do some slight planning for the Hollywood Carnival next month. I learn about this video from Childish Gambino, aka, Donald Glover, who I discovered while watching the show Community many years ago. Soon after some people posted a photo of him with his girlfriend and their kids together. Along with it people complain about him “not being woke” because he’s a black man in a relationship with a white woman. I didn’t know there was some kind of rule saying you have to date within your race.
This is an issue plenty of black friends, and my GF has told about when it comes to other interests of theirs. Asking why they like anime, or “non-black” styles of music. Who cares? Then there are white suprematists crying about a so called, “white genocide” which isn’t happening. This problem of attacking people for what they like because it doesn’t fit the cultural norms of their ancestry is an old idea that needs to die. It’s been seen around the world, for thousands of years. Let people enjoy things.
If you are black and like heavy metal, go listen to some Metallica. If you are white and like anime, watch some Cowboy Bebop. If you are asian and like hardcore punk and reggae, I know of a band for you. I believe we all need each other, and that we need to have a better understanding of each other so we don’t promote hatred based off of bogus claims. We don’t advance that way if we keep such old ideas going.
Luke Cage – Season 2
I didn’t expect to see this any time soon. I really did enjoy the first season, because something about watching that man throw people around is highly entertaining.
Negative Countdown
A few days ago I loaded this app on my phone, where you pretty much answer trivia questions, but must be done during certain times of the day. And you can win real money. Kind go like a game show. You are pretty much picked at random but answering questions does help increase that chance. So the next morning after I downloaded it, I got money. HA! Didn’t expect that. Nothing else after that but everyone else needs that chance too. But a funny thing happened yesterday while waiting for my questions, it started doing counting up. I twas over a minute and a half by the time it let me in, and I still got the chance to do something anyways, so all good still. Didn’t win anything, but didn’t lose anything either. Anywho, if you also download the app, be sure to use my referral code, cz7948z, and have fun.
Rainbow Sash
Awhile ago I made this design for a shirt that I wanted to put online to sell, but there was an issue. When I uploaded the image it didn’t display the way it had hoped. No matter wha I did, it just didn’t seem right, and I think it had to do with the sites own limitations, so I tried to find another just to have it up to print more as I saw it in my head, but still wasn’t right. So this morning my girlfriend asked me to vote for a design she made for a contest Hot Topic is doing. I of course did, because I support my woman (and I’m hoping you do too). That and I liked it. But this also looked like the opportunity to post this old design of mine up. I doubt I’ll win, but it’s worth the try.
Making Jokes is Wrong Now?
If you’ve seen the White House Correspondents Dinner, or at least clips of it from Saturday night you might have noticed a certain comedian go up on stage. Some people became offended by jokes she made about how Sarah Sanders looks, only to find, she didn’t. Personally I would say she was complimenting her make up work, while also talking about how she lies so often. Or at least I believe Wolf was complimenting her, or maybe it was sarcasm. Then the outrage from a number of people defending Sanders who seem to have very short memories. I also wonder, how is it that entertainers, specially those who make jokes, should be put to a higher standard then those who are supposed to represent us? Including one who has encouraged violence.
