Apparently my “tweets” were not appropriate for the twitter community…. Despite having been on twitter since the beginning… Despite having no followers on twitter after bing on twitter since the beginning… Despite people posting the most insane shit all day, every day….from their assholes getting licked to racist shit… Yet I am the one targeted and suspended off the platform… This has happened to me on EVERY social media account, except twitter…until today. Which always is confusing to me, because everyone else posts way much fucking worse. The things I tweeted that got me suspended weren’t bad, weren’t racist, weren’t even funny. Maybe it’s cuz I said something about Trans being a myth….because they are still men with their dicks cut off….maybe it was asking that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez about her tits… Either way….it’s PG-13 commentary at best… I could be way worse, people are way worse…yet here I am suspended…. The world is fucking nuts. I’ve been a victim of censorship for so long and I’m not even that bad…It’s just weird when you look at what else is out there not getting censored, and you think “well why did I get deleted when people do way worse”…. I’ve always hated social media, I’ve always felt it was evil corporations censoring the thoughts of the people…not allowing original thought, disguised as this fun and stupid game…. But we are in a time where we don’t exist without social media, so the evil corporations can just erase you. I am not delusional, I’m back burner of the internet, the site never went viral and no one cares about it. I do not think that I am a target from the evil empire out there. I am well aware that I barely exist and that no one reads or cares about this site. I just don’t understand why I get flagged and suspended and deleted….when people are way worse. I will never get that answer….but the world is fucking nuts. The post Shut Down By Twitter of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepFather.com .
Source: NurPhoto / Getty Man Gets Caught Trying To Smuggle An Orangutan Into His Country A Russian man was arrested at an airport in Bali after attempting to smuggle a drugged baby orangutan in his luggage out of the air hub and back to his home country. The tourist is now facing anywhere up to $7,000 in fines and a five year stay in prison. This past Friday night, Andrei Zhestkov was detained at Ngurah Rai International Airport before boarding his flight back to Russia, according to reports from The Independent . Officials found a 2-year-old orangutan fast asleep in a basket–evidently because he was drugged with allergy pills–after a routine security screening. The 27-year-old reportedly told officials that he had been given the protected primate by his friend, who purchased the animal for $3,000 at a street market. He explained that his friend is also from Russia and had apparently convinced him he could take the orangutan home to keep as a pet, according to reports from The Guardian. But that wasn’t all the wildlife this man had stored in his suitcase, authorities also discovered two geckos and five lizards in the man’s luggage. For all of these offenses, the would-be smuggler faces up to five years in prison and $7,000 in fines. “[Zhestkov] seemed prepared, like he was transporting a baby,” Bali conservation official I Ketut Catur Marbawa said of the scene, revealing that the Russian man had also packed baby formula and blankets. The baby orangutan is now being cared for by the Bali Natural Resources Conservation Agency, BBC reports . As noted by the World Wildlife Foundation , orangutans are a critically endangered species with a few more than 100,000 known to be remaining across the globe.

While in the hot seat, Big talked about his career as a bodyguard before working in radio, his relationship with Tupac, and the lawsuit his old radio station slapped on him.

T hree days out of the week Amantina Sosa would wake up before the sun rose to prepare for an early morning shift at Starbucks. Following her barista shift Sosa—a Bronx native—would hop on the train and rush from the Midtown Starbucks location to Harlem to participate in a tech and entrepreneurship program designed for underserved adults. Prior to getting involved with the program, she says she would have never considered pursuing a career in tech, and now she’s on a path to creating her own app. “I didn’t think that I could pursue tech as a career,” she said. “This program made me see that tech wasn’t something that was far in reach.” For Sosa, the early mornings and long days were worth it because she knew she was investing in her future. Like Sosa, many underserved young adults in New York City, have struggled to forge their own paths due to the lack of access and exposure to career readiness resources. Disrupt Harlem Code Squad—a Harlem-based free 16-week program designed to empower adults between the ages of 18 and 24 to step into entrepreneurship and expose them to career pathways in tech—is aiming to change that narrative. Participants learn how to code, experience what it’s like to work at tech companies first-hand through field trips, and receive ongoing mentorship from tech leaders and entrepreneurs. Students are placed on teams and work on creating their own digital projects which are presented before a panel of judges on Demo Day. The program has proven to be nothing short of impactful. A lot of the participants in the 2018 cohort say that being a part of Disrupt Harlem has given them a strong sense of purpose and inspired them to further their entrepreneurial endeavors. For many of the students representation was key; seeing themselves reflected in their instructors and mentors had a positive influence. “It really showed me that technology is a driving force in everything,” said participant Aniya Carter . Carter, a recent college grad, has always had a passion for entrepreneurship and says that Disrupt Harlem Code Squad provided her with the foundation to build her own business. For her Demo Day project, she created a platform called Jigsaw which helps connect job seekers and employers. “It was a great experience. It was encouraging to see that everyone looked like me. It was run by Black people and the students were Black which was motivating.” Like Carter, program participant Mark Farrel hopes to be at the helm of his own business within the next few years. Farrel—who worked at Bloomingdale’s while participating in Disrupt Harlem Code Squad—has always been passionate about pursuing a career in fashion. The Harlemite says the program has shown him how he can merge fashion and technology. “It became my safe haven. Prior to this, I didn’t have a support system,” Farrel told NewsOne. “It caters to individuals who aren’t taking the traditional educational route. It showed me how I can disrupt the fashion industry through technology.” Farrel and his team created an app called CopIt which gives you details about a piece of clothing by taking a photo. He says he wants to continue to learn more about front-end and back-end development and hopes to become an app developer in the future. There is a need for culturally sensitive entrepreneurship and tech education programs for young adults in inner-city communities. Ones that are understanding of the daily struggles that they face and can provide guidance and show them how to overcome them. “DHCS provides a holistic approach to educating young adults. We don’t just teach the tech skills needed to enter the industry, but also what’s traditionally considered soft skills. Things like emotional intelligence and networking are key in developing a successful career,” said Program Director Philomena Boateng . “Over the course of the program, our students have grown as not only entrepreneurs and tech professionals. We often say our network is our net worth and they’ve truly taken steps to meet new people and jumpstart their careers.” DHCS is gearing up for its next cohort and plans on continuing to make an impact in the lives of young adults of color in New York City.

Source: Chris Becker Photo / Getty Besides babies, there’s nothing in the world that brings humans as much joy as puppies. They’re smart, wise and more loyal than most humans you know. “I may be an a**h*le but that still doesn’t change how much I love babies and puppies.” -Ebender34 Most people have a soft spot in their heart for the wolf-like canids, but some folks take their puppy love to a whole other level. One bride even shared her wedding spotlight with a group of adorable rescue pups. Instead of giving her bridesmaids bouquets to carry down the aisle, Samantha Clark gave them adoptable puppies from a local rescue group to hold onto instead. The gushing bride told The Dodo.com , “I have three dogs of my own. I originally wanted to incorporate them, but they already have a home and plenty of love. I wanted to incorporate animals that needed both: love and a home. We had a booth set up at the wedding and reception that had a log of adoptable dogs. I’ve been told many adoption applications have been submitted.” But what is it about the baby canines that just makes an humans heart melt? According to PetMD , bonding with another living being that doesn’t judge and only wants love from you is one of the main reasons people invest in pups. “Dogs really don’t care if you’re a five-star culinary artist, or if you can barely open a can of soup. Nope. They love you because you’re you. And they will pretty much eat up anything you give them.” “When you’re feeling down and thinking no one loves you, you always have a snuggle partner to make you feel better. That is, if you own a dog. Why? Dogs love to snuggle, they love to put their head in your lap, and they let you know that no matter what, they love you, and always will.” Puppy love is real. Get you some. Hit the flip to check out these interesting, random facts about pups that’ll make you fall in love even more.
I n November 2018, Dr. Tamara O’Neal —an emergency room physician at Mercy Hospital in Chicago—was shot and killed by her ex-fiancé. Her former classmates are turning the tragedy into something positive. In an effort to keep O’Neal’s legacy alive, they have launched a scholarship in her honor, the Chicago Sun-Times reported. Dr. Tamara O’Neal was tragically gunned down at her workplace, Mercy Hospital, in November. Now her classmates and closest friends have created a scholarship in her name, @mitchdudek reports. https://t.co/sI0SzztoT3 — Chicago Sun-Times (@Suntimes) March 17, 2019 The scholarship—dubbed the Tamara O’Neal MD Scholarship Fund—is designed for students who are a part of the University of Illinois’ Urban Health Program. The money raised for the fund will go towards supporting a student’s first year in medical school. They also hope to be able to fund the education of a fourth-year medical student who plans on completing their residency in emergency medicine. O’Neal graduated from the institution five years ago and became an emergency medicine resident graduate in 2017. Their mission is to give back to those who are following in O’Neal’s footsteps and are determined to make their mark in the medical field. So far there has been $68,000 raised for the scholarship fund. “Tamara was always a person who lived to help people, and to be able to pass that on in the form of this scholarship fund to help someone else, then Tamara still lives,” O’Neal’s father Tom O’Neal told the news outlet. “She used to call me up and tell me to say an extra prayer for her when she had a big exam … now I’ll say an extra prayer for the person who gets this scholarship.” This isn’t the first scholarship fund that has been created in memory of O’Neal. Shortly after her tragic death, her close friends launched a fund to support the next generation of Black doctors.

B lack youngsters are displaying excellence in academia. As college acceptance letters continue to roll in for many, a 16-year-old from Dallas has been selected by some of the nation’s most prestigious law schools to continue her education, Black News reported. She's 16. She's brilliant. And she's entering LAW SCHOOL this fall. Meet Haley Taylor Schlitz: https://t.co/Lm0NKy6DvQ pic.twitter.com/TcmMgO67xU — WSB-TV (@wsbtv) March 22, 2019 Haley Taylor Schlitz has had an educational journey that has been full of milestones. Schlitz—who was homeschooled—graduated from high school at 13-years-old. She then went on to take courses at Tarrant County College and also furthered her studies at Texas Woman’s University. After receiving her bachelor’s degree this Spring she will pursue her law degree at Southern Methodist University’s Dedman School of Law. The Dallas-based institution is one of nine schools that accepted Schlitz and is recognized as one of the top 50 law schools in the country. Among the other schools that accepted her were the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, Howard University, Texas Southern University, and others. Her family recognized that she was gifted at an early age. After Schlitz underwent intelligence tests and performed well, her parents decided it was best for her to be homeschooled. Not only would it give her the opportunity to learn at her own accelerated pace, but they wouldn’t have to keep her in an educational setting where she didn’t feel challenged. Schlitz initially wanted to follow in her mother’s footsteps and pursue a career in medicine, but witnessing all of the inequality in our country motivated her to want to become a lawyer. “It is my hope that I can bring my passion for addressing education equity issues, and help facilitate a program that focuses on the legal advocacy needs of underserved students and their families in accessing gifted education programs,” she wrote in a piece for Better Make Room . “The lack of access to these programs helps promote stereotypes and keeps students of color in our K-12 schools locked in an education system that views them as the problem instead of the solution.” Aside from making her mark in law, she plans on creating an organization that empowers children to help them reach their full potential. Earlier this year Schlitz and her mother Dr. Myiesha Taylor released a book titled The Homeschool Alternative which highlights how homeschooling is beneficial for Black children.

Source: Kevork Djansezian / Getty LeBron James Won’t Be In The Playoffs This Year It’s official: LeBron James has been eliminated from the NBA Playoffs for the first time since the 2004-05 season. The Lakers were out defeated on Friday night when the Brooklyn Nets beat them in a tight race of 111-106. As for the team itself, this will be the sixth year in a row the Lakers have missed the postseason, which just so happens to be a franchise record (but not the good kind). This loss also drops the Los Angeles Lakers’ record to 31-41 for the entire season. LeBron’s signing at the beginning of this season originally gave the Lakers something to look forward to. It was all good just a few months ago, when the team was in fourth place in the Western Conference after a Christmas Day victory against Golden State. But that’s also when things started to go downhill, as James suffered a groin injury during that same game and had to sit out for a career-long 17 games. The Lakers ended up only winning 6 of those 17 games without him and the team as a whole just wasn’t able to bounce back. This transition to the Lakers also marks a big year of firsts (or at least the firsts in a long time) for LeBron. In addition to missing out on the postseason for the first time in 14 years, LeBron’s streak of playing in eight consecutive NBA Finals has officially come to an end. The last Finals without LeBron were in 2010, when the Lakers beat the Celtics in seven games. The only bright side to this? LeBron has a lot of stuff up his sleeve outside of basketball, so he probably won’t be too bored during his extra time off.
