No Data In Recycler View


I am completely beginner to android so there might be some studpidness in my case.

I am trying to make an Instagram clone app. But I am stuck in displaying users feed. I am fetching my data from Parse Server Then its stored in Two ArrayList 1 stores all Bitmaps and other all strings. Through my log i can see that my data is fetching properly but it is not displayed any where on the activity.

I am providing the activity code and all the necessary information any help would be greatly appreciated.

userTimeLine.class :
