I haven’t posted anything new in a while. And with good reason. A lot has been going on so much so that it feels weird to share it on here. Since I last wrote same sex marriage has been declared legal in New York. I have been helping a friend work on preparations or as much as he would let me help on his new indie film. The Hardest Love and I started something new with someone who is actually old to me. Don’t wanna get into that yet lol. I have been thinking long and hard about my future here in New York that is one of the biggest things going on and trust and believe there is a lot more but it is all painfully boring and none of your business. lol I love having an outlet where I can just vent for a little. Thank you. Tye Tye
“@vanderjames: Been over a week since NY senate voted to allow gay marriage, & my straight marriage doesn’t feel any weaker, or in need of “defense.” Hmm..”
This is really sad
Things that anger me. This is terrible. There were other options before having to euthanize this bear.
Bad Bear News of the Day: Terra Nova National Park officials recently had to put down an adorable black bear cub because it was deemed “too friendly.”
The bear had developed a habit of approaching park visitors to beg for food. It gained Internet fame a few weeks back after it was photographed greeting Constable Suzanne Bourque who was investigating bear sighting reports. Authorities tried moving the bear to “a more isolated area,” but it came back.
According to Terra Nova’s acting director of conservation Kirby Tulk, “[t]he bears, instead of coming to the roadside to feed off their natural vegetation, become attracted to cars and humans because they learn to associate vehicles and humans with food.” Tulk said he was forced to euthanize the cub as visitors refused to heed warnings about feeding it.
