Microsoft GLEAM T-shirt, black with "I can't even code straight" text, 1996
One of the first four shirts created and distributed by the Microsoft employee group GLEAM (originally Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Employees at Microsoft, later renamed Global LGBTQI+ Employee & Allies at Microsoft). The front says, “I can’t even code straight” and the back includes a design which imitates the Windows ’95 logo. These shirts were worn to PRIDE marches, parades, and other events. GLEAM was started in the 1980s but was more formally organized in 1993 under Microsoft's Diversity Advisory Council.
