Female veterans are the fastest growing demographic among the homeless population in the United States and face a double hurdle of distance and invisibility in getting the health services they need from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, according to research conducted by Penn State graduate student and U.S. Air Force veteran Elizabeth Elsea. link . Black Female Veterans are probably more so because shame keeps them from using the system.
Yesterday my site crashed🥴 “The white screen of death”and it took 12 hrs for me to troubleshoot and debug on my server, I did a t/c with the host site but while they were working on it so was I! It’s back up and they did exactly what I did on my server. Thanks IPage!( great customer service) Whew!
Although I prefer Joomla as my CMS, I decided to give WP a try for my own site. And one error caused the dreaded “white screen of death.” Whew! It was a permalink issue. 🥴Fixed it,and this is how:
I Renamed plugins, apparently in WP this can be the reason for the 500 error. The cache had to be refreshed…htaccess basically corrupted,inserted some fresh code, and made sure mysql was working properly( one of the files had a link redirect issue.) I am so glad I had a back up note: always have a back up! And if you don’t want to pay the hosting service, then back it up yourself with ftp ! Anyway I backed it up on my server.
Honestly, it was pretty invigorating for me! You may ask “why did you do all that if t/s was working on it ?” Simple, I fixed it on my own server in case it happens again I know how to correct it. One of my side hustles is building websites, I either write the code or template it .
It depends on what people want and my time. If it happens to one of those sites which I get paid to build and also manage then I can take care it quickly. WP is new to me and I always want to learn and not get stagnant. So ,how your day?
Introducing : Asalh Scruggs the owner of @sanaa.productions. She’s a mom 24/7, an animator by day and entrepreneur by night. (Who says women can’t do it all!)
Ms Scruggs is a multi-tasker, while building a name for herself in the animation community with her hot new animation project @diamondndre !
She even has a billboard up in Atlanta on one of the busiest highways ! Talk about smart marketing!
She is also branding herself as the go to person for her hot vibing smoke boxes!
When asked “why animation?” Her answer was simple. ” because I love it!” That’s really what it’s all about! If you have a passion for something you’re happier, when you turn your passion into a business you’re winning! You’ve visualized your dream and made it happen! The hustle is real!
Black Fact: In animation, only 3 percent of animated film directors are women — and just 1 percent are women of color, according to a 2019 USC Annenberg report. In 2021 we have to change those statistics!

I have said this many times in my circle VR is the future! For instance, Covid not going anywhere soon. And for some travel is inhibited. There are several apps that allow you to travel and what a cool experience it is! I love ‘ Wander’ myself but there are so many. You can even travel with friends . You can do concerts, you can sit in a movie theater in VR instead of going into a theater. I feel very strongly that this pandemic is going to put VR in the forefront!
This book was gifted to me by a dear friend and I will honestly say at first I felt like the book didn’t apply to me. I went back and reread it with intention. You can have a dream but bad habits can keep you from realizing it.
