The End...

I lost my domain name thanks to a recent personal drama I will not get into (it's household related, so nothing major).

Since someone else got my domain name and will probably use it in ways I can't imagine, along with the uncertainty of Tumbler's future and my lack of interest to maintaining this blog, I decided to push my efforts elsewhere.

So, if you still have an interest in my outtakes and what not, I'm going to be blogging from @nukirk from now on. I'll keep the @thoughtremixer up for as long as possible, but don't expect any new updates on this side.

March 6th, 2015 -- FIVE YEARS AGO, WE BROKE THE INTERNET.

By “we” we mean “Black Tumblr”. T’von (formerly known as expectthegreatest) had an idea, Mars ( @marsincharge) had the drive, and @nukirk had the reach to make something *incredible* happen. And you guys...you showed up and showed out.

We wanted to make sure that Black Tumblr -- and Black people all across the internet and around the world -- had space to flex. To show each other and themselves, that THEIR Black is beautiful...and talented...and passionate, smart, etc... To celebrate what makes us all different and yet bound together in kinship.

Thus, #Blackout + #BlackoutDay was born.

ON MARCH 6th, 2020, CELEBRATE OUR FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY WITH US.

We’re looking to break the internet again. Can we do that, Black Tumblr?

Looking back in 2017.

All things considered, it was a good year.

See y’all next year.

I’m 39, BTW... yeah, yeah.

We’re our own role models.

Allow me to reintroduce myself...

I'm not sure what re-inspired me to do this. Could be a writing bug. It could be that some content creators I follow are bad news all day every day. Whatever the case, I decided to once again reintroduce myself and tell you signed up for.

My name is nukirk and I love three things: tech, culture and protecting them. Somewhat in that order. What I used to do is blog about racial issues and sad news as What Whites Will Never Know. Now, I want to blog about a lot of other things beyond that.. and less sad news. Too much of that going on. Here's a taste of those things (in no particular order)

How to protect yourself online from the rapidly changing Internet.

Curating posts from other people about what their passionate about.

Why it's important to not be complacency with your digital equipment.

Learning about the current culture environment and how you can help (and no, complaining about it online isn't the only step)

Social commentary about stuff that the news might missed.

Basically, if it's related to tech, blackness, and culture, I'm going to blog about it. Or re-blog about it.

So, stay tuned for more posts.

P.S. - what's with the "for the rest of us" line? Well... some things I post about is to simplify it so it doesn't go over your head. Especially when it comes to tech. I always like to simplify things so that you can learn it without being the geek yourself. Hence "for the rest of us". Hope that clears that up.
