    Facebook Fail! Bar Employee Learns Domestic Violence Is NOT a Joke… [PHOTOS]

    Oct, 9 2013 | Written by ATLien

    Domestic Violence Sign Texas Bar

    A local Minibar in Texas found itself in the middle of a domestic violence controversy after an employee thought it would be funny to share a joke about domestic violence.

    An employee of the bar posted a sign outside the bar that read, “I like my beer like I like my violence: domestic.”

    [WATCH: Kelly Rowland Speaks Out Against Domestic Violence in PSA Shot by Derek Blanks (VIDEO)]

    Had it not been for an Austin resident sharing a picture of the disturbing sign on Facebook and Instagram, we may have never known about the sign, but one did… and the post grabbed national attention.

    I walked by the sign on Friday night, and my first response was just anger

    I currently am a volunteer at the women’s shelter in Austin, so my sensitivity is extra high, but I think my reaction would have been the same regardless. Not only was it offensive, but it was also just bad humor.

    Minibar removed the sign the following morning and fired the employee responsible for posting the sign.? They also posted another sign to correct the situation. Continue Reading…

    Facebook Cheater

    Facebook has been known to tear apart many marriages and relationships but at least one of your ‘online friends’ is hoping that it will keep his relationship together.

    [READ: Should There Be A Rulebook on Facebook Relationship Etiquette?]

    Ivan Lewis posted the photo above on his facebook timeline after he was caught cheating on his wife. Apparently Lewis’ wife, Sonya Gore, says that if he gets 10,000 likes on his humiliating picture, she might just forgive his indiscretions.

    So far, Lewis has only accumulated a little over 3,000 ‘Likes’ but if you think his lil social media experiment is a ‘fail,’ think of it this way… Lewis can get his wife back in a few days AND a ton of new “friends’ to cheat with.? A win/win for all!

    ?Convicts Using Facebook in Jail

    Facebook isn’t just for students anymore, it’s an equal opportunity social networking site. But Facebook for inmates? Whoodathunkit?!?!

    It’s against prison rules, but several inmates within the Oklahoma corrections system are (or have been) active on the popular social network.

    [FLASHBACK: Fact or Fiction? 15 Things Black Girls Do On Facebook (VIDEO)]

    Prisoners Using facebookIt was revealed over the weekend that nearly three dozen inmates have been disciplined since January 2012 for engaging with ‘friends’ online and it was also reported that at least three dozen more inmates are still online, but undetected by prison officials.

    [READ: Reason #43425 They Shoulda Never Gave You People Facebook! (PHOTOS)]

    Typically, inmates who are caught lose their good-behavior credits, but that minor punishment pales in comparison to the online praise they receive for showing off their jailhouse physiques. Did you know that there are convicted murderers, armed robbers and even child molesters serving time in jail while ‘friending’ you online?judge-judy-laptop-gif

    While you may know most of the people on your friends list personally, I’m sure there are a few who got in on the merits of being a friend of a friend.?? That being said, some of these dudes could be gawking at your vacation photos right now as I type or… since several inmates have been bold enough to post photos from inside jail cells, you could be gawking at them too.

        Straight From the A to the Hall of Fame! This one Straight From the A to the Hall of Fame! This one hits different. 👽🛸

OutKast’s induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2025 isn’t just a win for hip-hop — it’s a celebration of Atlanta’s heartbeat. Before there was Real Housewives, Love & Hip Hop, or any Atlanta reality show, there was the Atlanta music scene — real stories, real people, and a creative energy that could only come from the Southside.

I grew up in Southwest Atlanta, and back then, it wasn’t unusual to bump into (or run with) the same circles as OutKast and the Dungeon Family. We were all just young ATL dreamers finding our voices, our style, and our lane. Somewhere along the way, I kinda inserted myself as an unofficial member of that crew, a sister to the culture, always front and center, documenting the movement before “content creator” was even a thing.

When I started blogging in 2007, Straight From The A wasn’t about reality TV or viral gossip. It was about the music, the movement, and the people who put Atlanta on the map. My blog name, my pen name ATLien, my whole digital identity was inspired by @outkast , @goodiemob , @killermike , @ceelogreen @sleepybrown , and the whole Dungeon Family - the original ATLiens who made the world respect the South. 

And Killer Mike — I’ll never forget how you encouraged me to keep pushing nearly 20 years ago when blogging was still that “weird internet thing.”

Today, I celebrate the legends who defined Atlanta’s sound, spirit, and swagger. True innovators. True visionaries. Forever ATL. 👽🛸

        The Kenya Moore Hair Spa drama just got even MESSI The Kenya Moore Hair Spa drama just got even MESSIER, chile! 
The landlord has officially clapped back in court — filing their answer to Kenya’s counterclaim, and whew, they brought receipts on receipts! 

According to the filing, Kenya hasn’t paid a dime in rent or utilities since December 2024, which technically makes her a squatter! 😬 And about that $80K tenant improvement allowance she’s been fighting for? The landlord says she’s in default and violated several terms, meaning that deal is void.

This whole thing is turning into a Bravo-level courtroom saga… minus the peach! 🍑

The full 99-page amended complaint (with all the juicy details) is available now on Patreon + Members Only! http://patreon.com/atlien or hit the link in bio for the exclusive legal tea.

So what do y’all think? Can Kenya spin this, or is the Hair Spa officially a wrap?
