I know I haven’t been able to write a blog for a very long time but I would never be absent to wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I hope that every one of you have a great Christmas today and a very happy new year. Please be safe, if you are planning on to drink then please find someone else who can drive you and not drunk because your safety and others are very important! I will try to write a blog post about my Christmas and what I have gotten in a few days but for the time being I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Truly yours,Joshua “Joshie” Sullivan.

No long time see here, I know I haven’t written a blog post in a very long time, specifically about 2 and half months to three months as the last time I have made a blog post were in April. I know I made a blog post last week but that doesn’t really count it because that was only a very short blog post to inform you all that I was sorry for not being able to write anything for that long due to health reasons and I am still dealing with that but I felt that where I have not written anything for that long that I should do something about it so I am doing something about it here. As for my health issues, I still won’t share any details because it is private matters but I can say that it is something to stop me from writing and still is but I have an idea that I should just write a few sentences and whatnot then take a break so not to put too much pressure on myself. Nonetheless, there are a few or maybe a lot of things that I would like to share with all of you and I hope that all of you will enjoy the new snippets article that I am writing today…
No long time see! I know I haven’t written anything in several months, I apologize for that but for reasons that I haven’t been able to write anything is because I am dealing with health issues which I rather not to share details about it but I wanted to write this blog post to let you all know that I am still around and I am still adding notes to the list that I need to write about or share my opinion on. I am still dealing with the issues at hand, I will try to see if I can at least write something once in a while and not keeping you all in the dark for too long. I know several months are long time but I ask that you to bear with me, eventually I will have something done and I just need the time or have the energy to do so. As always, I am still active on social media such as Twitter because it allows a sweet and short post so not to consume too much of my energy which I barely have these days. Please do still subscribe to JoshiesWorld blog and be sure to follow me on social media. I thank you so much for your patience, they are greatly appreciated and I promise…
Two days ago, there was a video that caught my attention through the news feed on Facebook, in that video it was an American Sign Language lesson in profanity by Nyle DiMarco and for past these two days since that video caught my attention I have kept my eyes on the commentary where the Deaf community would share their opinion on the video of Nyle DiMarco’s American Sign Language lesson in profanity. While there are a lot of people who have shared their views about it and I have not. I never left a comment, tweet or wrote a wall post on Facebook because at that time I had to think hard because I admit that at that time I was baffled – too baffled to think of what to say I guess. So, now that two days have passed or three, I decided that I should just go ahead and share my opinion on what Nyle DiMarco did in the video where he teach profanity using our native language which is American Sign Language. Please note that I am not speaking for everybody, this is only based on my opinion and my thought so if you are curious what are their thoughts you are more than welcome to ask them or to look for that video on Facebook. It…
No long time I have written an article for the blog! I know that many of you have taken a notice that I am no longer active in blogosphere, you have noticed that correct and I have some reasons behind why I haven’t written an article for a blog in a long time. I believe last time I wrote an article for the blog on the first week of February, but it was really more of an open letter to a person or a company, in that case it was for a company and it was written to Google about their new policy on YouTube which is owned by Google about their requirements for YouTube users. Here is a link to the open letter for you to read if you would like to or you can easily find it by going to the front page of this blog and look for the title called “Google, Reconsider YouTube Requirements”. Long story short, Google decided to change their policy for YouTube users with new requirements or criteria to be eligible to monetize their videos on their YouTube channel(s). Because of that new policy, anyone who was able to monetize their videos before the new requirements went into effective on February 20 have lost the ability to monetize their videos and only way…
Google have decided to change their policy on their monetization system for YouTube, anyone who has less than 1,000 subscribers and less 4,000 views annually (both combined will be required) will be affected if they already are accepted in their monetization system for their YouTube channels. I must say that I disagree with this idea, because Google didn’t realize that there are many Deaf and Hard of Hearing people who uses YouTube has very hard time getting any subscribers because they use their native language in their videos which is American Sign Language so this greatly limits their audience in general. Even, myself I don’t have that much subscribers although I do have the views on my YouTube channel which has been registered since the year of 2008 or earlier I believe, and I am myself Deaf so therefore I only use my native language in my videos which is American Sign Language, so I can only reach to a very limited audience due to that. Deaf and Hard of Hearing YouTube users has hard time getting subscribers because most YouTube users uses different vocal languages while we only use visual languages, and this isn’t only American Sign Language but also many other country’s sign language such as British Sign Language (BSL) or Latino Sign Language (LSL), etc. I ask…
I rarely would talk about this sort of subjects on blogging and as a blogger because it seems that a lot of bloggers wrote articles with answers that anyone who is curious about what a blogger is and the privileges that the blogger has but I saw some trending news about what had happened between a blogger and a hotel calls White Moose Café. A blogger named Elle Darby, for some reason White Moose Café called her a blogger when it is a vlogger but I will be the one to call her a vlogger here because it is a proper title, Elle Darby e-mailed a hotel named White Moose Café with a business proposal that she would advertise the hotel business in her videos and told White Moose Café that she is a social media influencer with a certain numbers of followers which I cannot exactly remember what she has because she is unheard of (sorry – you aren’t that much of a influencer apparently) so that she could bring a lot of traffic to the hotel’s business in return that she could be commissioned with free nights. She said that her and her partner (I believe?) had planned on to visit Ireland for Valentine’s Day, that she was in searching for a place to book for a stay…
I am writing this to ask all of you for some help, I have asked for some help before and I usually ask the help in every article I have written which can usually be found at the bottom of each articles. I must confess that I have been struggling to come up with something to write about or of and I am calling for your help with that. I am sure that you have noticed of lately where I have become less active with the blog, you are right and the very main reason that I am getting less active is because I feel as if I have written everything that I needed to say so in other word I run out of something to write. Now, as I said I need your help with that and I would very much so appreciate all the help you can give me. What can you do to help me you ask? I would be grateful if you would head over to this submit page or you can find the submit page by going to the “submit” tab at the top of this website and from there I would like for you to suggest on some of the topics that you would like to hear from me. Or if you have some…
