Covid-19 POV: Pilot Blog

The STRONGEST pandemic of the 2020 decade. This was going to be an exciting year for EVERYONE! Leading up to January, talks of the town consisted of "I can't believe it's going to be a decade", "What was I doing in 2010??", "Wow a decade already??", and much more. I for 1 can say that  I was very excited for 2020. When I was younger, I would lay around the TV on Friday evenings watching whatever it was that the news channel had to offer. Many times would I indulge in the show that was known as 2020. From what I can remember, it was great stories of your everyday average people doing amazing things in life. The show covered lives both domestically in the U.S.A and globally around the world. One of the funniest episodes that aired was when this African guy was talking about how the Homosexuals in their country were enjoying the arts of fisting and eating feces from the anal area. The fact that people were doing that stuff wasn't the humorous part, it was more so how angry it made the guy feel.  He was one of those guys who used his hands to express what he was feeling. So when he made a fist with his hand and started licking the tip as if it was an ice cream cone, it was a pretty funny sight to see. 

2020 however, is not so funny. It must be a coincidence how that episode aired on the 2020 series because it  I were to summarize 2020 in 3 words or less, I'd say it was "Shit. Pure SHIT". But I can't complain. This silent killer took damn near half the whole world like it was a spawn from Thanos or some shit. I'm just thankful that none of my family members were caught in the grasp of Covid-19. I lost my job and so did my brother and cousin but we kind of sorta bounced back in a way. I, along with my cousin and a childhood friends of my brother now work at a collection agency that I used to intern for. This is the pinnacle for innovation. I was always told that  I was a creative person, so maybe this is God's way of saying; "No more EXCUSES!! This year, you will show me what you can do. Now, go on and CREATE!!!". That was my impression of a higher being if you didn't realize. 

I don't know what to expect with this blogger. I don't plan on making any money through this. The reviews on blogger.com already slander the fact that the platform is owned by Google and that it's hard to monetize the content you create. However, at the same time I have nothing else planned to do. Not to mention, I'm really good at writing paragraphs full of useless content. Using this platform will also help me feel like I'm not completely useless in life. I read somewhere once that happiness doesn't stem from perfect conditions, but perfect conditions stem from happiness. If this will be my vehicle towards happiness, then so be it. I'm ready for the growth chapter, the ups and downs, the slips and slides, and all the other things in between. Thank you for listening! :D.

Reviews by Pancho @ "Precolonial Black Africa" By Cheikh Anta Diop

  Precolonial Black Africa 𓁃𓀠𓀢𓀧 This mid to large size book, originally written in French, gives readers a gateway into what Africa was like before the colonization. "Precolonial Black Africa" gives readers a detailed outlook on what life was like amongst the earliest Africans. The book sheds light on what the early Africans did for a living, how they saw each other, how they handled conflicts, how they conquered other lands, how they practiced religion, and a number of other things.  Throughout the book, Cheikh Anta Diop divides the text into sections that focus on the different angles of political and social systems.   For example, section 2 or II or the book goes into detail on what the socio-political status of Africa was at the time.   Sections later on in the  text talk about the education levels that was present during precolonial black Africa. The text is well rounded overall and makes the reader(me) feel like they're sitting in an exclusive African American H

Reviews by Pancho @ "Gamification is Bullshit" By Ian Bogost

🎲Gamification is Bullshit 🎲 The article of Lan Bogust explains that most companies and big businesses of today use a new method of “bullshit” called G amification. As stated in the article, Gamification is “ marketing bullshit invented by consultants as a means to capture the wild, coveted beast that is videogames and to domesticate it for use in the grey, hopeless wasteland of big business, where bullshit already reigns anyway ”. In this case, I think that Bogust was trying to tell readers that marketing firms have no idea what video games are really about, and this new method is used to gain them more profit . His personal studies on the products of Gamification showed him nothing but slander and misinterpretations of video games. He claimed that each boo k of Gamification had a method of repetition on irrelevant facts. I personally believe that Lan Bogust is telling the truth. I have never heard of this guidebook known as Gamification, but if it derives from the business w

The Benefits of a Four Year College

Whenever seniors in high school approach graduation day, they come across a common question from many people. This famous question is, “So what are you going to do with your life now that you are done with high school?” Most of them will tell that curious individual that they are going to college, going into the workforce, or heading to the armed forces . For those who choose college, they only have two options, a cheap , local community college or a university that cost s a lot of money. The most important thing that should matter to every student is which of these learning establishments will better prepare them for the real world. Students should attend four year colleges or universities over community colleges because four year institutions provide more opportunities to prepare them for life after college Many students have different interest and goals in the world , but finding out what they want to make their profession can be hard. This is normal for students who ha
