Mix 02-19-2026

I have decided to start drafting the new Mix article. There are a few topics I would like to address. I hope there are at least a few topics you might be interested in reading about in this new Mix article. Here is the list of topics that will be mentioned. I have no idea when I will publish this Mix article, and I also don’t know how many topics it will end up including, because I sometimes add a few more after I’ve already saved the topics I had planned for the Mix article or a separate article. If you prefer to read only a few topics you may be interested in instead of the entire article, you can do that by clicking the topic you want to read, and it will take you directly to that topic. Or if you don’t have enough time to read the entire article, you can come back to this article at a later time, and press/click the topic where you stopped so that you can resume reading this Mix article. Mix 02-19-2026 Topics List. Let’s start with me first! Lately, I am doing a-okay. Not too long ago, I went to my semiannual check-up (every half a year), and I was honestly dreading it because I knew I was overdue for a…

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from JoshiesWorld!

This is the owner of JoshiesWorld, Joshua “Joshie” Sullivan, and I want to personally wish every one of you a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and Happy Holidays, such as Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, and others I may have forgotten to mention! As for Hanukkah, I am somewhat late, as it is celebrated from December 14 to 22. But I still want to recognize that, as other holidays besides Christmas and New Year are important as well. Some know what these holidays are, where they come from, and how they are celebrated. The celebration of Christmas started in Rome around 336, but it was not a major Christian festival until the 19th century, which began on January 1 in 1801 and ended on December 31 in 1900. The original reason for Christmas was to celebrate Jesus Christ’s birthday on December 25, a tradition established by Pope Julius I, combining religious observances with influences from winter solstice festivals such as Yule and Saturnalia. As for Hanukkah, it is a holiday for the Jewish people, the word Hanukkah means dedication due to purifying the Temple after the Jewish resistance against the Greek occuptation by Seleucid Empire after they outlawed the Jewish practices and defiled their Temple in 168 B.C.E. Hanukkah holiday also marks Jewish resists having their culture destroyed, and the fight…

Hey there, everybody! I hope that all of you are doing well and keeping warm, since we are heading into winter, cold weather, depending on where you are from. Speaking of where you are from, I would love to hear where you are from (do not give the exact location, but a region, or at least a hundred or so miles away), and how the weather is over there in the comment. Some of you already know that I am from the eastern part of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, near the border with West Virginia in the Appalachian Mountains. The weather here in winter often surprises us; one day it feels like summer, and the next it’s freezing with snow. For instance, a perfect example of a weather surprise is the flood a day after Valentine’s Day this year, 2025, which has become the second-largest flood since 1977. The great flood of 1977 submerged most of our cities, and that happened again almost 50 years later on February 15th, 2025. It was unbelievable to witness, because where I reside, by a river, the river became pretty much a lake, with my house becoming an oceanfront. I, along with my mother, was very fortunate that my house is on a side of the mountain, but unfortunately, all of the houses below…

MultiTopic 10-10-2025

So, here we are with a new multitopic article. If you haven’t read the first one, which explains what a multitopic article is, it’s essentially a condensed version covering multiple topics in one article. There were different names for this kind of article before, such as tidbits, which I didn’t feel was the right name, so I changed it to snippets. I still didn’t feel right with that name. I have had a few followers who suggested a better name for it. Hence, I had to think again for a name that would be easily recognizable for the readers to know what kind of article is going to be, so I thought of multiple topics then combined them to a multitopic, which is a pretty much self-explained title, I believe, so I am satisfied with that name for the articles that have more than one topic. It seems that it is acceptable to my followers, so that is important. Anyway, as always, here is a list of the topics that for this multitopic article, and if you are too busy to read the entire article you can always select which topic to read instead of having to go through the whole article trying to find the topic that you might be interested in reading or if you want to read…

MultiTopic 8-4-2025

Hey there, folks! How have you all been doing lately? I hope all is well with you. I am sure some of you are looking forward to the summer coming quicker than it feels, as the summer solstice will start this year on June 20th, 2025. As for me, I have been doing okay. I have some good and bad days, just like everyone else. But one thing I will tell you is that I am not looking forward to the summer this year, just as I didn’t look forward to the summer last year and years before that as well because I am not a fan of summer which I am sure that some of you by now knows that as I have posted on the social media for many years that I am not a fan of summer and that I am a big time fan of winter. In case some of you are unaware and wonder why I’m not a fan of summer, it’s because I’m not a fan of hot temperatures, which seem to get hotter every year and can be unbearable at times. I don’t know how some of you get excited about the summer, unless you’re in school and have the break. However, being outside in the scorching hot sun is no thanks to…

Happy Juneteenth Day

Happy Juneteenth National Independence Day, one of the most important days in the history of the United States of America. If you wonder what Juneteenth is about, it’s a day on June 19, 1865, when freedom began for the Black community as the United States of America ended slavery. Even though President Abraham Lincoln ordered the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863 to end the slavery of African-Americans, not everyone agreed with that or did not get the order until later due to slow delivery and on that day June 19th, 1865, the United States Major General Gordon Granger ordered the final enforcement of the Emancipation Proclamation in the state of Texas at the end of American civil war. On June 19, 1865, the black community was freed in every state. Even though slavery ended, there were some people, including some politicians, who tried to find every way to restrict their freedoms, such as Jim Crow laws, which segregated colored people from having the same access to things that white people had. Such as segregation in education, public services, businesses, restaurants, and others. Although it was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson with the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it had initially passed through the United States House and the United States Senate with bipartisan…

MultiTopic 4-4-2025

For a while, I have been writing articles on a single topic, but this time, I will write a multiple-topic, obvious article. Hence, the title is MultiTopic because I want to write about several topics. I have a list of topics I continue to add to, and it’s getting a bit too long for my taste, so I need to consolidate some of them in one article to clean up my list. Additionally, I don’t want the topics on my list to become too dated. As always, I hope you enjoy at least one of the topics covered in this article. If you’d like to discuss a specific topic further, please leave a comment below.
