Hey guys! I know long time, I know I have not wrote an article in a very long time especially on here or anywhere else including being a guest for some other well-known blogs but there are some reasons for that which I will share only very a few because the rest of the reasons are not meant to be shared with the eyes of public but for one I have been very busy lately because every time when the summer is over my schedule became messy more than anything which that happens to me every year when our summer were over and I have worked on other project that it seems that the project I am working on were never going to be successfully which that means I am working on a new blog for the group of bloggers that I have personally selected. Yes that means that there are going to be a another blog except this time that it is not by myself although I am founder of the blog as I am the one who build it but for the people who I have personally selected to be blogger of the blog I am working on which most of them have accepted the offers I had given them so I am excited when I finally launch…

Looks like I have a few numbers of subjects to discuss about, I would like to remind everyone who is fans of my blog that tidbit articles are usually a very long article for reading because the definition of the tidbit is everything else in one so that means different subjects instead of writing an article of just one subject which can be a bit boring to some of the people as it seems because several people have sent me emails saying that they prefer something long to read as it keeps them busy as long as some of the subjects would be interesting to some of the people who like to reads blogs or some news outlet. Personally I believe that tidbit articles are perfect for JoshiesWorld because when I founded the website with the intentions of a whole different categories because some of the bloggers would only blog under one category or niche as they says that it makes it more successful than to blog on different categories but while I have nothing against any bloggers who only interested in blog in one category or niche although myself I sees that when bloggers include several categories instead of just one category often succeed at blogging because. For example if there is one category or niche, let’s say food…
First of all I would like to say hello to every one of you out there, I wonder if I am the only one that is in the middle of huge storms which is here in the state of Kentucky in United States of America? If I am then I am glad that some of you aren’t experiencing being in the middle of insane storms that is brewing around along with a high possibility of flooding here in this area that I live in which is sometimes prone to flooding because where I lives there is a river that is often flooded when a huge storm with heavy rainfall hits here. While sitting inside my home feeling the huge of constant booms by heavy thunderstorms, I was going through a few of things here on the internet and I stumbled upon something that is very shocking to me but not only myself as I am sure that it also shocks several people who is Deaf or Hard Of Hearing. If you ask me if by saying shocking I mean as in a good way or bad way? My answer is in very terribly bad way to where that no Deaf or Hard Of Hearing just cannot sees it with their own eyes including my own eyes. A large local company…
I stumbled upon a article that wrote by Fox News that upsets me more than anything. The title of the article says “Feds try to eliminate housing for the deaf”. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) who granted to pay 2.6 million in funds to build a complex named Apache ASL Trails that has 75 units for deaf and hard of hearing to live in back in 2005 but now they changed their mind and are wanting to force the deaf and hard of hearing residents to move out and be homeless. Apache ASL Trails is located in Arizona, the senate of R-Ariz are fighting to put a stop in HUD to force the deaf and hard of hearing residents to move out and make them homeless, but HUD are quite powerful especially their lawyers and are willing to be inhumanity because all they care about is for themselves and not anyone who residents in Arizona especially the deaf and hard of hearing. Over five hundred thousands of dollars from state taxpayers and the apartment’s developer has put in to fight HUD, and National Association for the deaf (NAD) has jumped in the action to fight HUD and bought in more lawyers, several people are fighting against HUD to try to put a stop for them from forcing about…
There is deaf news where they give the news all around in the world for only deaf and hard of hearing to watch the video about the news they have up to date or read the update news they have. Today one of the news on deaf news has the title that stated “Congressman hires deaf interns” and that caught my attention because my belief is that all deaf or hard of hearing are equal to hearing people but sadly, often they are not recognized as much as the hearing people are in America especially when it come to important things such as career, politics and among others. That is what makes me ill is that often a lot of people who think that deaf or hard of hearing people cannot do what the hearing people can do, that has been a heated debate going on for several decades. Same way as men vs women for driving, comparing their skills and such. Same concept as deaf/hard of hearing vs hearing which is quite unfair as it should be equally because only difference between deaf and hard of hearing vs hearing is that deaf and hard of hearing cannot hear, that is it as it does not change how their brain works because they do have same brain as the hearing…
I have come across a video on YouTube that are quite interesting about the deaf holocaust in Germany along with Nazis in world war two (WWII) and decided that I should embed a video in this post so that every one of you can watch the history about the deaf holocaust and the nazi in Germany at the dark time, it has subtitle/closed captions for every one of you to get the idea what the narrator are saying in the video and as well for deaf or hard of hearing people to understand what the narrator are saying in sign language who signs in Germany Sign Language (GSL) which is quite interesting, it is quite long video so be sure to grab some popcorn and a cup of coffee or soda and pull the chair in and sit and play the video to watch or if you have device or TV that has internet app on TV, then press watch later button and then go to YouTube app on your device on the TV then you will be able to watch from there instead of watching it on the computer. Hope you enjoy the video and if you are interested in to get know more about it then do some search and you will get numerous researches to learn about…
I decided to start searching for different news and videos to read and watch because I was boring and had nothing to do. While I was doing so, I have stumble upon news articles about music has decided to involve a deaf singer, which in this case where people can be the in music and sign with sign language in some videos and creating songs. The record label has decided to sign a deaf rapper! Fox news has said that his name is Sean Forbes and he is deaf who will be doing the music and also will be in opening with a rapper Ludcris and such. He has already created one song that I’ve heard of and watched the video, it was amazing. The song is titled “I’m deaf” by Sean Forbes. Now the music industry is stating that he’s sort of The Real Slim’s Shady singer, Eminem. The rumor is that Sean Forbes is supposed to be in some sort of movie but I am not sure if it’s actually true but I do know the music is actually true and it’s happening since he has already signed the record deal. So hopefully that he’ll make it far as some of singers do, because he is inspiring to a lot of deaf and hard of hearing cultures, that’s…
