Entspann dich. Du schaffst es.

At the #AfroTech2019 side events listening to black entrepreneurs using @Shopify as their main selling platforms... So. Many. Black folks. In tech. In one place. No lie, makes me feel far less isolated knowing there are folks that look like me in the tech industry and are farther ahead in their journey than me (#goals). #BlacksInTech (at Oakland, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4lvI-vA2iUiBe-Ranmrr0-rhglRHZG4lU7M8I0/?igshid=d5exue4yo09v

Gf: Hey, you wanna swing by Hollywood and watch fireworks from one of the best viewpoints in the city? Me: I wanna, but I have work all week (including today) and class to finish... Gf: I have red, white and blue glow sticks and IPA on tap... Also me: (And before you mention it, I don't celebrate 4th of July like that; I'm just glad for the time off, food and booze during the day. Lol) #HappyFireworksDay #EnjoyTheIPAs lol (at Netflix, Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzhWSrnAr-3/?igshid=1m2bdrp6nugj2

Was shopping with moms and gf (yes, they "volunteered" me to go and bribed me with a breakfast sandwich) and visited the grand opening of @cannabisnowretail on La Cienega and 3rd... Straight CBD stuff... Really good shop, really slick products, SUPER helpful staff and LIVE music. Also, #ShamelessPlug for both @ghostvapesofficial (#MyMv1Pin #GhostMV1 [I'll rock the pin on my backpack, I promise lol]) and my #VBL sponsor @dompenvape (#YERRR lol). Shouts out to Tom at the @ghostvapesofficial booth, helping a novice cannabis advocate feel like less of a novice showing me how their vaporizer works. #PromoteThatMan #CannabisAdvocate #CBDadvocate #LegalizeCannabis #DontWorryIfISampledOrNot #NoYOUhaveTheMunchies lol (If you're actually curious if I did or not... That's not your business. LMAO) (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BywOcUYg5a0UrpUM3wmhSW-xE7imvSxwoSug380/?igshid=qew1767d8clv

OMG WHY IS THIS SO TRUE. Not just in RPGs, either... As a #BlackGamer it's incredibly frustrating to see game after game faceplant on black hairstyles. And it shows a GLARING lack of POC in the gaming industry... From the 3 generic black hairstyles (Seriously, black hairstyling is a legitimate form of art, IMO)... To Miguel in #Tekken6 wearing a Mariachi outfit (even though he's from Spain and Mariachi is Mexican)... To the fact that black people make up ONE PERCENT of the gaming industry... Not to mention the inherent racist and "boys only" mentality in both gamers and the industry itself. Come on, gaming industry. Do better. #Gaming #GameDesign #GamingIndustry #POCinTech #POCinGaming #DiversityAndInclusion #DiversityAndInclusionInTech https://www.instagram.com/p/ByBoVq5AmJrjTByi8zHLqqCMRQoZWJQuufqP7Y0/?igshid=io4dfi9yikp7

I got my awesome gifts, my cake (red velvet) and #AvengerEndgame tickets (YES THIS IS MY SECOND TIME WATCHING IT AND YES I WILL WATCH IT AGAIN IT ANYONE WANTS TO GO)... GOD, my gf is the best.

Finally visited the Griffith Observatory with my best friend/gf... It's weird; it's one of those.places in Los Angeles Angelinos don't visit, even though it's easy to do so. It's like New Yorkers not visiting the Statue of Liberty. I got to see all of the actual (non-deadly) elements of the Periodic Table (White Phosphorus, Gold, Neon and Krypton are my personal favorites), saw a 400 iron chunk of a meteorite (about the size of carry-on luggage), the corona of our sun, reenactment of a solar flare... God, I'm such a nerd. LMAO (at Griffith Observatory) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwjISczg5W5-JKNgpFtiTTIlPCGbbH-5mHE6ww0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8wp5tbeoxv6l

Last day at #GoogleNext19... Gotta make it count... And grab as much swag as I can physically take on the plane. Oh, and networking and learning about #Google n stuff. #IhaveToPostThis #HowElseWillPeopleKnowImDoingStuff #StuntingOnIG https://www.instagram.com/p/BwHwFmIA5lRlmPKiNrqw7zFU3hXBnwTdkHdzI00/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ubfjfc186t7s

*wanders into session* Hmm, this sounds like an interesting talk about self-care, self-awareness of your physical/mental health, the actual concept of a safe andHOLY CRAP IT'S LAVERNE COX. If it's available, please check it out on the #GoogleNext19 YouTube channel... Seriously, it's REALLY good. And no, I'm not starstruck. I'm from LA; we don't GET starstruck. #YOUREtheOneThatsStarstruck (at Moscone Center, San Francisco, CA) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwDV-ZUgn3zOOL9RLp3XmcoyLgjmh-ONYzvoUw0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hncfy3bsyszu

Got finished watching #Us... MY. GOD. Pros: LUPITA. NYONG'O. IS. A. NATIONAL. TREASURE (I know she's of Kenyan descent and born in Mexico; shut it lol). She carries this movie with her performance. Everyone that stars in this movie kills it, but LUPITA... Man... Jordan Peele can pretty much make whatever he wants now. He's a genius and is creating a new genre of horror as we speak. It's shot so well and there are so many incredible shots. WHOEVER COMPOSED THE SOUNDTRACK DESERVES A DAMN MEDAL. THEY👋GAVE👋I👋GOT👋5👋ON👋IT👋A👋 CLASSICAL👋MUSIC👋REMIX. Bruh, I don't even LIKE American horror (TORTURE PORN, JUMP SCARES AND GORE-FESTS DOES NOT COUNT AS HORROR, GUYS), and I plan on seeing it again. Also, a GREAT movie symbolizing the dual nature of America and its "Shadow" archetype (pick up a Psych book lol) Cons: I'm not a fan of horror, so there were some more violent parts that aren't for me. There was a dude vaping in the theater in front of us. I think Jordan Peele directed this movie so you'd have to watch it 20 times to get half the references. Still, go see it. See it on a date with someone because it'll be weird grabbing onto a stranger after... Well, go see it and you'll know what I'm talking about.

Bruh... I'm exhausted from this weekend's hackathon... On the bright side, the team I was on (#TeamGenie) placed in the finals for Best Web App to help #MakeAwishLosAngeles... Super geniuses (as well as myself) working towards putting smiles on kid's faces...? Totally. Worth it. Still though... MY BRAIN IS MUSH RIGHT NOW, SO HIT ME UP TO PLAY MONSTER HUNTER IN LIKE, 7 HOURS. #CodingProblems #NeedNewStickers #LAPTOPSICKERS #ItsTheOnlyWayPeopleWillKnowICode https://www.instagram.com/p/BtMJzhzgVjypBJtSobPSlP6L07sTyHKlhhdjJI0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=60hfbtqj1cbg

How I imagine future maintainers looking at my code comments for help

To a year full of tragedy, losses, self-inflicted wounds, and just an unpleasant year all-around... At least the music and movies were good...? Lol See y'all next year. #ProgrammerHumor #HappyNewYear https://www.instagram.com/p/BsEjsT1gV1KIvbxW_26-DBNdwrivFzcNzablfw0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=r3pd9cil6lpl
