Gay Things I Love: BlackGayBlogger.com

Searching through gay stuff on the internet is like falling head first down a never-ending rabbit hole. The gay web is perfect for the focus challenged, but is the worst enemy of most gay men who have something else to do. To help alleviate web headaches and make your time on the net more efficient, I'll present to you—frequently—the most wonderful, fun, cool, funny, fabulous, and down right weird stuff I love online. I'll review it, try it out or just glance through it. Then I'll lead you to where you can experience it.

First up is a blogger that I love to read. His name is Karsh. He's a self-proclaimed "country-born, city-raised, college educated. Writer. Artist. Musician. Mathematician. E-Media hotshot. Blasphemous Hater." I like reading his blog, blackgayblogger.com, when I need a break from the heavy topics in the news. Karsh is funny and BGB reminds me of the old school web days when you could check up on your friends only once a day and not every time Facebook refreshes. Here's an excerpt from one of Karsh's blackgayblogger.com posts about his day job:

"There are a lot of married couples that work at Big Company, Inc. It's kind of a no-fail situation, at first. One person starts working there, then after six months, they can bring on their spouse. If the spouse manages to stay for 90 days, then they get a hefty referral fee. The amount is under speculation, but I'm guessing it's at least $300.

In a way, I can see the advantage of working with your spouse. You both know the money's coming in on a regular schedule, you can have lunch together, and when things go wrong, you have a built-in amen corner.

But what if one of you gets fired? Sure, you're a couple outside of work, but is it the same package deal at work?

Today, one of the designers' husbands was fired, and in a rather gangster way — they called him at home before he was set to come in for his shift. He was instructed to give his badge to his wife (Big Bertha), and then have her turn it in. To add insult to injury, she was instructed not to gather his personal things, because the company would box them up and mail them to him."
