Let’s just put this out there. Black Lives Matter. This does not mean that no other lives matter. At no point was that a statement of exclusivity. But right now there are certain segments of the population that unfortunately need to be reminded that the lives of those with dark skin matter just as much as the lives of us white folks. It’s disgusting that this needs to be said at all, but apparently some people still are too stupid to understand that racism is bad.
I know it’s been a while since I posted anything here, and I’m sorry. I’ve had to take on a second job and it’s really eating up a lot of my time. This site isn’t anywhere close to what I wanted it to be, but there’s only so much time in the day and The Berger Bits is low priority right now.
Remember that you should be going to Widescreen.org if you want the latest podcasts. And please … shut up and wear the damn mask!
