Here is an update for a really Bizarre situation... Remember that guy who spent a decade slicing off his nose, ears, and fingers to turn himself into a real-life extraterrestrial? 👽 The "Black Alien Project" (Anthony Loffredo) took a massive, unexpected turn. After reaching 65% of his total transformation, Loffredo shocked his millions of followers by announcing he was officially stopping the radical surgical procedures. Why the sudden halt? Lost Meaning: He admitted the constant bodily alterations had entirely lost their initial purpose. Social Rejection: He faced massive discrimination, admitting he couldn't secure normal employment or go out in public without people fleeing or shouting. A New Focus: He has pivoted toward emotional stability and introduced his new romantic partner on his social media accounts. However, he isn't totally done with body art. He recently returned to timelines showing off intense new facial scarification patterns carved across his cheek and jawline. At what point does body modification cross the line from artistic expression to a medical red flag? Should doctors who perform these extreme amputations lose their licenses, or is it pure body autonomy?show more

And, the way you always keep the most important... person for last, the fact that the apogee of his acceptance speech was about Connor.. he had me sobbing, cause of how completely unguarded and raw Hudson is here. The way the emotion is slowly building up, as he is going down that list, his voice cracking a bit, his hands shaking. And he can feel it slowly, tears forming in his eyes, tears he is holding in the best he can. As he is holding that award, so firmly, that last name on his list, the one that felt like an awakening. He is the one he'd want to hold right there (or rather be held 🥺). The one who is more than a scene partner, more than a best friend, his "emotional support person in life", his "soulmate", his anchor even. Cracking a joke or two to try to release a bit of pressure, but when comes the point of saying his name "to the honorary Canadian Connor Storrie, I share this award with you." and not find his face, his eyes, his smile in front of him, the absence is screaming in his chest and the tears are closer than ever. Cause to be here, and for that to happen not side by side, like everything they've experienced for the past year or so, this doesn't feel quite right. "A single person is missing for you, and the whole world is empty" So yes he got through that speech without crying (barely), but not without beautifully opening his heart up to us before, and showing just how much he loves him 💓show more

In 1499, Michelangelo overheard people crediting his greatest work... to someone else. He snuck into St. Peter's at night and carved his name on the sculpture. He regretted it immediately and never signed anything again for the rest of his life... He was 24 years old. The year before, a French cardinal had paid him 450 gold ducats to sculpt a statue for his own tomb. The contract had one strange clause: it had to be "the most beautiful work of marble in Rome, one that no living artist could better." Michelangelo had never completed a major public commission. He accepted anyway... He carved for two years from a single block of Carrara marble that he later called the most perfect stone he ever worked. What he produced was the Pietà: the body of Christ, lifeless, across the lap of his mother. When it was unveiled, visitors refused to believe a 24-year-old Florentine had made it. They credited the work to a more famous Lombard sculptor. So according to Vasari, Michelangelo slipped into the basilica with a chisel and carved his name in Latin across the sash running between Mary's breasts: MICHAELANGELUS BONAROTUS FLORENTINUS FACIEBAT. "Michelangelo Buonarroti, the Florentine, made this." Then he vowed never to sign another work. He kept that vow. Through the David. Through the Sistine Chapel. Through the dome of St. Peter's. Through 65 more years of work, until he died at 88. Not one of them bears his name. What I can never quite get over is that he was only 23 when he started. A young man who believed he could carve the most beautiful object on earth. And then he did...

Let's say this with all the letters: ADRIEN IS... AN ABUSE VICTIM. Gabriel abused and neglected him his entire life. Gabriel controlled him, manipulated him. He made Adrien believe that he loved him, only to punish him for his actions, making affection conditional on his behavior. He exposed him and allowed MILLIONS of people to have digital access to his body while he was a minor and without his consent (once again manipulating him by making his own freedom conditional). He emotionally restricted him, basically taking away his autonomy to freely experience his emotions. He deliberately caused him emotional distress whenever he took his anger out on him. He overworked him while he was a child who had just lost his mother (and without any explanation, that's for damn sure). He locked him in a 4x4 room without caring about his emotional well-being. And you know what? I don't care that these were deleted alternate timelines: he beat him multiple times, emotionally blackmailed him, and traumatized him just to force him into being akumatized. Now go ahead and tell me again that Adrien is stupid for this. Adrien is an abuse victim. It's insane that we have to repeat this so many times for people to actually see it. He's a kid who didn't even have time to process the fact that his father, his ABUSER, had died when suddenly everyone was applauding him for having "saved the world." Imagine KNOWING how much some asshole made you suffer, only to see everyone praise him and tell you they want you to be like him. Imagine starting to question whether YOU were the one who was wrong for thinking he wasn't a good person, and having that idea drilled into your head so much that it eventually overrides your own memories and beliefs. Just to make sure we're all on the same page: ADRIEN IS AN ABUSE VICTIM 😁😁😁😁😁😁show more

Rex was found living on his own in the... hills outside Chico, California after the wildfires tore through that area in the fall of 2022. He came into an Animal Rescue badly underweight, with scars across his back, and so frightened that volunteers could barely get close. For almost two years he lived in the shelter, improving slowly but still flinching at sudden movements. The Chen family had been searching for their Australian Shepherd since the evacuation. Their ten-year-old son, Liam, never stopped believing they'd find him. He carried Rex's old stuffed duck toy in his backpack every single day. When the family finally got a match through a lost pet database and came to the shelter, Rex backed straight into the corner. Liam sat down on the floor without rushing and pulled that worn, faded duck out of his bag. Rex's whole body changed. His ears came up. His nose started working. He crept forward one step at a time until he was close enough to sniff the toy - and then he was on top of Liam, covering his face with kisses while Liam laughed and cried at the same time. Liam's mom said: "Rex didn't remember our faces. But he remembered that duck." Sometimes the way home isn't a road. Sometimes it's a smell, a shape, a thread of memory that never fully broke.show more

Tamale Mirundi was the kind of man you would... dislike, and at the same time look forward to listening to. He had many contradictions, swinging from one position to another and back. But wherever he stood at a time, he had that gift of the gab to make you feel like he had some point. He laboured to analyse. Much of his analysis was sophistic, and often opportunistic. But you had to be keen to notice the fallacies therein, otherwise you would get carried away by the entertainment in his way with words, metaphors, and fitting examples that were always available to him. Much as his books (pamphlets) were dismissed by many in view of the speed at which they were released, they manifest a desire to reflect and document. He prided in his arrogance. But it was usually an entertaining arrogance, easy to let pass. Towards the end of his life, his vocabulary became more and more unhinged, requiring Parental Guidance. Could the liberty of his tongue have been Dutch courage? As a propagandist, sometimes he sounded far fetched in his conspiracy theories, but his quality was often a bit higher than the new herd of bonehead propagandists deployed by his political club on social media. Many of them are characteristically unimaginative, belly-brained, predictable, petty, and, in summary, stupid. You can detect them from their first sentence. One of the features of philosophical minds is the freedom to think beyond conventions, venturing into taboo topics, pushing boundaries of what is acceptable, and questioning common sense. Much of this he did. He questioned religious beliefs and cultural norms. He lived the way of his mind. In many ways, including when he went off limits of social decency and civility, he was his own man. He dared to use his brain. He hasn’t returned it to the creator intact. May he find rest.show more

[Throwback] Kobayashi Arata,a professional dancer, give detailed abt taehyung’s... dance abilities on Fire and Dynamite 👤Whenever I see Taetae dance, I got the impression that he is a groove-type dancer. He has good detail and dances like he is riding the music. I like dances that convey the dancer's own vibe that only they have, and Taetae's dance is like that. His neck's trajectory is continuously moving back and forth. It's a professional's technique. His dance is very professional. It's very difficult to grab the rhythm in a simple way, but Taetae has a very good sense for that. Even when he isn't moving, the texture of his dance movements are very exquisite.The way he dances to his heart's content is wonderfully cool. The way he feels the sound (music) is expressed through the movement of his neck. The way he burns his feelings into the music is at a very professional level. One more thing to mention, the way he approaches a certain melody is always very outstanding and beautiful. You can see his great sense for dancing in his ad-libs, besides the set choreography. The neck is the part of the body that can express rhythm, so it especially requires skill. Taetae uses his neck extremely well. People at a high level of dancing can draw a hot response from just moving their neck a little. A great dancer knows that just a simple neck movement can look really cool. 1 speculate that Taetae is a dancer who knows this. The way he paces himself is no joke. The reason he can comfortably maintain the rhythm with his whole body is because he properly feels the music inside his body His dance has a mature charm. It's something different than the brilliance and dynamism that can be seen from the outside. From an angle that surpasses all that, he expresses how he perceives the beauty of the dance. He is the type that enthralls others by actually enjoying the music himself. He is like a miso soup made by a first-class chef. It doesn't make sense how smooth he is. (All of his movements are very smooth.) People, who enjoy music itself in the first place, look cool with the way they ride the rhythm. He dances as if he has surrendered himself to the sound (music), and as if he is submerged in the music. He is able to feel the rhythm with his whole body. Taetae's hidden details, in which he accomplishes things like they're nothing, make my heart beat. It's a difficult thing to do. You can't do this just by learning it. He has a good sense for dancing. The way he dances is very smart. In conclusion, Taetae is at an extremely high level of dance. From the little details that are hard to catch at first glance, to his dance skills that read the music, making it feel like a "professional dance" style and feel, can all be seen in the ad-libs as well. These parts all depend on the individual's sense for dance. What can be seen from here is that Taetae has a good sense of understanding and feeling sound(music), and i really want to become someone like that too. 28min video: trans cr: KTHbase/KTH_FanBaseshow more

➡️ The ZANU fighter was just defeated by a... 60-year old guy. 😌 This guy, Themba Gorimbo, had the support of most Zimbabweans when he entered the UFC, because – what a great achievement and representation for our country! 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾 🇿🇼 Then, he made the quintessential error that many shallow Zimbabweans who find fame MAKE – he involved himself in regime politics ... because he saw it as a way to make a quick fortune. 💰💰 He started to ride high on ARROGANCE, and use his platform to insult and mock the opposition movement while promoting ED and ZANU PF regularly. He is especially known for stalking Winky D, and posting negative comments and mockeries about him, in order to please his ZANU masters. He thought that if he placed himself on the buttered side 🧈🍞 – the OPPRESSOR’S side - then he would be on the fast track to wealth, freebies and trinkets. 💵 Amateur mistake. When you’re a professional athlete there is no upside to playing politics. 🤷🏾‍♂️ You’ll just alienate many supporters unnecessarily, and attract controversy. You also draw negative attention to yourself internationally. MMA is a global sport and UFC is the pinnacle of the sport. So then he started losing supporters and attracting criticism ... but continued on his arrogant high horse, believing that his commitment to ZANU would pay off. Then when was CHOKED OUT in his last fight and lost consciousness in front of the entire world 😴- he thereafter had a "Damascus moment" when he realized that HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of UFC fans around the world were joyous about his humiliation! 😃 Especially when at one point he enjoyed widespread support and a growing fanbase - even the Rock had given him a house in the early days ... before Gorimbo showed himself to be an arrogant, toxic chump. 🤦🏾‍♂️ Then after being choked out he tried to “CHANGE” and win people over again, and started becoming anti-Zanu, etc. And it has worked for some people, but for a lot of OTHER people, including me (who was initially a HUGE fan), the damage had been done... 🙅🏾‍♂️ I always support Zimbabwean athletes and teams PASSIONATELY 🇿🇼 – but this guy has shown his true colours, and I find him to be unsavoury... He’s someone who tried to use his platform to benefit from the REGIME. He supported OPPRESSION and mocked the suffering of Zimbabweans, and efforts of the opposition. He is NOT a good guy. 😏 He is only now pretending to be in support of the PEOPLE because he has seen how supporting dictators will negatively affect his MMA career. It actually may be too late for him to redeem himself because even on the MMA twitterverse, I see a LOT of people from around the world posting negatively about his arrogance. They are also calling him a SCAMMER because of the library he had said he was building “in his village” and apparently people donated money, but there is ZERO library in existence 🤔- and when he has been pressed to explain he has been saying to critics that he built ¾ of the library and then he had to tear it down for some reason... 👀 I will always view him as a “ZANU fighter” because that’s what he proudly was for a long time, and has now realized his miscalculation ... and trying to pretend to be otherwise. Anyway, good luck to him. Because these days KARMA is visiting him.show more

The relentless attempt to paint Prince William as the... villain because he wouldn’t entertain Harry or play their media games is getting out of control. William didn’t publicly humiliate his family. He didn’t sell private conversations. He didn’t sit in interviews making accusations against his father, his brother and Catherine. He didn’t turn family grief into content. He didn’t spend years telling the world his version of events while repeatedly dragging his family into it. Harry did. Yet somehow William is the cold, unforgiving brother who needs to “heal the rift,” while Harry gets an endless supply of excuses. “He lost his mother young.” So did William. Diana was William’s mother too. And Harry is not a grieving 12-year-old boy anymore. He is a middle-aged man who has had decades to process his grief, make his own choices and take responsibility for them. At some point, childhood tragedy cannot become a lifetime exemption from accountability. And somehow people still want to make William the problem? Did a coconut fall on your head? How many times is William expected to take the high road while Harry keeps burning the bridge? William chose not to play the game. He chose restraint, duty and protecting his family & Country. And for that, he’s somehow the villain? Fuck that.show more

NEW: 🚨 Self Proclaimed “Physician” Abdul El-Sayed Once Admitted... On Audio He Was Only “Cosplaying As A Doctor” 🚨 Abdul El-Sayed repeatedly presents himself as a “physician” and “medical doctor” on the campaign trail, in bios, LinkedIn, and interviews, yet his own words prove he’s been overstating his position. Michigan Jihadist Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed Dr. Abdul El-Sayed has made his so called “medical credentials” a centerpiece of his pitch to voters. He often calls himself a physician and he regularly says, “I’ve been a doctor my whole career.” His LinkedIn lists him as a physician. However, records tell a different story. He has never held a medical license in Michigan or New York. His documented hands-on patient care consists of a four-week sub-internship (a clinical rotation) at a small Manhattan hospital at the end of medical school. In a 2022 podcast, El-Sayed himself described that experience this way: his “job was to be the, like, worst doctor on the team” and he was “cosplaying a doctor.” Listen to him say this in his own words below. 👇🏻 He earned an MD from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons (after time at the University of Michigan Medical School) and he has worked in epidemiology and as Detroit’s health officer where he oversaw the slaughter of nearly 4,000 innocent dogs and cats that were held at Detroit animal control. An MD is an academic degree. A licensed, practicing physician is someone who completed residency, passed boards, obtained a state license, and treats patients under ongoing regulatory oversight on a regular basis. El-Sayed has not done the latter, and thus, he should stop referring to himself as a practicing physician. Abdul’s Islamic ideology compels him and encourages him to lie to non-Muslims for the purpose of advancing Islam, which is why he feels comfortable lying to Michigan voters about being a “practicing physican”. This is called Taqiyya, and it’s the foundation of Abdul’s US Senate campaign. In his own words, Abdul was only “cosplaying” as a doctor, specifically the worst doctor. Michigan voters, BEWARE!show more

what im about to say is just MY vision!... this is how i see it i feel like the car in the mv represents heeseung himself and everything he has gone through over the years. in the mv, when he first got the car, it’s bright red. red symbolizes his passion, excitement, and happiness as he finally achieves the dream he had worked toward for so long. he has debuted, he is standing on stage and he is doing what he always wanted to do as the story progresses, the car becomes almost completely gray. i see this as a reflection of heeseung’s burnout and emotional exhaustion. the feeling of becoming drained after constantly giving so much of yourself without having enough time to recover. heeseung had dreams and desire to release his own solo music and show a different side of himself as an artist, but he wasn’t able to do it, he pushed it aside for a long time so he started losing hope. the fading color of the car mirrors how his passion and motivation were slowly being overshadowed by frustration and disappointment yet the car never becomes entirely gray. the driver’s door is still red. that remaining red represents the part of heeseung that refused to let go of his dreams and passion. no matter how exhausted he became, no matter how much disappointment he faced, there was still a small part of him that continued to believe that things could get better. the car is literally following heeseung and refusing to let go. i feel like it symbolizes the passion that survived even when everything else seemed to be fading away – the fully red car shows the joy of a dream coming true – the gray car shows the emotional cost of everything that came afterward – and the driver’s red door shows that no matter how difficult the journey became, he never completely lost himself that’s why i believe the car represents heeseung/his dreamsshow more

The viral video of Emmerson Mnangagwa completely ignoring his... presidential advisor is not just a awkward political moment We warned Tungwarara. We shouted it from the rooftops that this man cares for no one, loves no one, and respects no one. But Tungamirai thought he was special. He thought he was different. He blinded himself to history and became the chief architect and loudest preacher of the "2030 Agenda." He threw himself into the trenches, moving heaven and earth to make Constitutional Amendment Bill Number 3 a reality, all to guarantee a term extension for a man who views people as nothing more than disposable tools. Now that the groundwork is laid, the mask is off. Tungamirai has been used, drained of his utility, and cast aside like a used condom. How could anyone be this politically blind? Look at the history! General Constantino Chiwenga did not just hand Mnangagwa the presidency on a silver platter; he literally saved his life. When Mnangagwa was poisoned at that Zanu-PF rally in Gwanda, it was Chiwenga who flew him out, saved his body from death, and engineered his path to State House. And what was the reward for that ultimate loyalty? Mnangagwa turned around and weaponized the entire 2030 Agenda for the sole purpose of blocking the very man who saved him from ever ascending to the presidency. There are even dark, persistent allegations that he has poisoned the very people who protected him. If a man can allegedly poison and politically destroy the General who saved his life and built his throne, who did a mere advisor think he was? This is the absolute truth of our current leadership. It is a system built on using patriots, milking them for power, and dumping them into the wilderness. Tungamirai wanted to play with fire, and now he is burning in the cold reality of who Mnangagwa truly isshow more

🙏🇺🇸🙏 U.S. Air Force Captain Seth R. Koval —... one of six Airmen who lost their lives while supporting Operation Epic Fury. For those who knew Seth, he was far more than a pilot or an officer in uniform. He was a husband, a father, a son, a brother, and a friend whose presence filled the lives of the people around him with love and strength. Seth grew up dreaming of becoming a pilot. That dream eventually became a life of service, one he carried with pride every time he put on his uniform. Those close to him say he loved what he did and felt honored to serve others through his work in the Air Force. But the people who knew him best remember something even greater than his career. They remember a man who was loving, generous, and kind-hearted. A man who always looked for ways to help others. Someone who could fix almost anything, who loved the outdoors, and who never hesitated to put the needs of others before his own. Above all, Seth was a devoted family man. His wife shared the heartbreak their family is now facing, describing the unimaginable pain of losing the person she loved most. In her words, Seth was not only an exceptional Airman, but the most incredible husband, father, son, brother, and friend anyone could ask for. She shared that one of the greatest honors of her life was standing beside him as he achieved the dream he had carried since childhood — becoming a pilot and serving his country. Though his life was cut far too short, Seth's legacy continues to live on through the family he loved deeply, especially in the smile of his young son who will carry a part of his father's spirit forward. For the Koval family, the days ahead will not be easy. Yet they have expressed deep gratitude for the love and support that has surrounded them during this painful time. Across communities and within the Air Force family, many people are remembering Captain Seth R. Koval not only for the uniform he wore, but for the life he lived - a life marked by service, faith, and love for others. Today we pause to honor him and to keep his family, friends, and fellow Airmen in our thoughts. - May Capt. Seth R. Koval rest in peace, and may his service and legacy never be forgotten 🙏🇺🇸🙏show more

There is a bit of beauty to the whole... Tate defeat. Hear me out. If you look at Demoor’s first professional fight below, let’s face it, it’s beyond comical. It was so bad that Demoor’s own corner threw in the towel after the 2nd round. THIS is the EXACT fight Demoor was alluding to when he said he contemplated taking his own life. He was ridiculed across social media. Laughed at and rejected my the male community. Fast forward and Demoor started listening to Andrew Tate. Demoor decided to LIVE. He started training harder. Applying himself. Refocusing. Taking everything much more seriously. After defeating Tate, he tearfully revealed that Andrew’s own words are what pulled him out of this dark place. Andrew saved his life. Demoor stepped into the ring with the man that breathed life back into his soul and won. ‘A real master trains his replacement.’ This is such a W for men across the board and it’s shocking that many men can’t see this. Both men won, and dare I say, Andrew walked away with the biggest W of them all. A TRUE Cinderella story. He who has ears.show more

In July 2014, Lars Mittank, a 28-year-old from Germany... went on a vacation with his five of friends to Varna, Bulgaria. The week went by really fast," said Paul Rohmann, one of Mittank’s friends. However, the day before the group was scheduled to fly back home, Lars got in a fight with other German nationals at a bar. The fight stemmed from a disagreement over football. Lars was absent for most of the evening but reappeared at his hotel the next morning, recounting to his friends that he had been assaulted by a group of four men, resulting in injuries to his jaw and a ruptured eardrum. Afterwards, Lars visited a doctor who recommended against flying due to his injury. Additionally, the doctor prescribed an antibiotic for him. Despite his friends' desire to stay with him, he insisted he could manage alone. He encouraged them to stick to the initial travel schedule and fly home on July 7, which they did. Lars checked out of the hotel with his friends and then checked into a new hotel. But this is where things turn really strange. The day following his friends' departure, Lars displayed odd and paranoid behavior. From his hotel, he contacted his mother, Sandra Mittank, speaking in hushed tones, expressing fears that individuals were attempting to harm or rob him. He also urged her to cancel his credit cards. The CCTV in the hotel captured him pacing up and down the halls, looking out windows, and hiding in an elevator. Around 1 am, he departed from the hotel and came back approximately an hour later. His whereabouts during this time remain unknown. In the morning, he once again called his mother, telling her that the people pursuing him were getting closer. Lars arrived at Varna Airport on July 8, 2014, the day he intended to board his flight back to Germany. He sought advice from the airport doctor, Dr. Kosta Kostov, who later characterized his demeanor as "nervous and erratic." According to Kostov, he told Mittank that he was fine and could return home. Lars also expressed concerns about the medication he was taking. Shortly after, a construction worker entered the office, causing Lars to exclaim, "I don't want to die here. I have to get out of here." He abruptly fled the office, abandoning his luggage containing his wallet, cell phone, and passport. These final moments of Lars Mittank can be observed in the CCTV footage provided below. Upon exiting the airport, he can be observed in the footage jogging away from the airport, scaling a fence, and bolting into a meadow. Following this, he completely disappeared.show more

That hilarious blooper from The Boys where Black Noir... got completely distracted by his doodles and had the entire cast and crew cracking up. Black Noir is one of the most enigmatic members of The Seven in The Boys. He never says a word and is always concealed beneath a black suit and mask, giving him an unsettling, unreadable presence. Since he doesn’t speak, nearly all of his character is expressed through his actions, mannerisms, and body language. A highly dangerous combatant, Black Noir excels with blades, stealth, and lightning-fast attacks. In many ways, he comes across more as a silent assassin than a conventional superhero. Unlike most of his teammates, he has little interest in fame or public attention, which only makes him stand out even more. As the series progresses, more of his story is uncovered. Beneath the intimidating exterior are signs of deep emotional scars, particularly those tied to his past and his complicated relationship with Homelander. These revelations add depth to his character, transforming him from a mysterious enforcer into one of the show’s more tragic and layered figures.show more

During the filming of the scene where Barabbas is... released and he meets Jesus face to face (played by Jim Caviezel), the actor Pietro Sarubbi(who played Barrabas), later testified that when their eyes met, he experienced something he could not explain. He said: “When our eyes met I felt a sort of surge… It was like I was really seeing Jesus.” He went on to say that in that moment he saw no hatred, only mercy and love, and that the experience led to a real life conversion during the filming of the movie. Before the film, Sarubbi had spent years searching spiritually, living in a Tibetan monastery, practicing meditation in India, and traveling widely, but after acting in that role he said: “I have reached the final goal of this search in Jesus.” After The Passion: He became a committed Christian. He wrote a testimony book about his conversion (From Barabbas to Jesus: Converted by a Glance). He began teaching acting and public speaking. He does charity work, even performing as a clown for orphaned children. He lives with his family on a farm near Milan. He had a personal encounter, not with Jim Caviezel, but with the real Jesus Christ, Himself!! Praise God!! 🎥Itabira .onlineshow more

U.S. Coast Guard Rescue Swimmer Tyler Jaggers has sadly... passed away after being severely injured in a high-seas rescue off the coast of Washington state. Jaggers was injured during a medical evacuation of a cargo-ship crew member who had suffered a stroke. Jaggers was getting ready to propose to his girlfriend, according to close friends. "Yesterday, surrounded by the people who love him most, his family carried out the proposal on Tyler's behalf. His dad placed the ring on my hand at his bedside," his fiancée said. The incident happened about 140 miles off the Washington coast, according to local reports. "While conducting a helicopter medical evacuation offshore of Washington state, Tyler was seriously injured while being deployed to a large vessel," USCG Rescue Swimmers said on IG. "After being transported to a hospital in Victoria, Canada, it was determined by doctors that Tyler would not survive his injuries." "Our brother put his life on the line for someone he had never met, as Coast Guard aircrews and rescue swimmers have done thousands of times before, answering the call so that he and his crew could save a stranger's life." "Unfortunately, Tyler lost his in the process. He gave his life in the purest act of service: trying to save another." Rest in peace, Tyler.show more

The Issa thread PART 1: The Ronaldinho Scam Let's... first take a look at Parsa Abbasie’s Career Timeline Beginning as “sphex” he would scam people for Fortnite gift cards on streams. This is where he found his love of ripping people off and later used this name to transition to grifting SMMA and dropshipping courses. He made a big step up in his career after this, finding a way to get hired by Andrew Tate / Andrew Tate. This was huge for him and is what his entire brand was built on prior to crypto. He used to grift on money twitter as a sales and marketing aficionado before he made the shift into crypto scamming. The hook he had was that he was claimed to be Tate’s “top sales guy” when in reality he was probably just Tate’s bottom. He began working for Tate at a time when a majority of Andrew’s income was from trafficking Eastern European women under the age of 18 and forcing them to do sex acts on webcams. So we can see he had a very strong moral base to work off of. When he could no longer make monopoly money off his fake job he used the “G” boyfriend connections he made through his time with Tate to begin his crypto career. Let's take a look at the Pencil Neck Cabal (all pics will be in thread): Sam Patel - Seen pictured alone on a boat with him in the video below (sus) and one of his day ones and closest partner in crime Harry.XBT - You can watch 2 of his cringe tiktoks below, one of which alludes to a $240M crypto as you can see the crew renting cars and flexing their money acquired through stolen funds as well Louie H - He is the blonde guy you can see in the videos above and also goes by Hermes. Seems to have enemies based off the tweet below. Attaching his instagram as well as a pic of his LinkedIn below Jayden Mellor - Big piece of the puzzle. Another day 1 and his father Will Mellor would NOT want the world to know his son has affiliations with Issa. Will is a big deal in the UK, he’s a popular actor from line of duty, works in media, etc. More on Will Mellor - Issa and his goon squad’s scams go all the way back to 2023 when his speciality was HARD RUGGING presales. They would sign up KOLs with large amounts of supply and HARD rug them instantly, ask cheatcoiner.eth about it as he had fell victim before. There were too many of these instances to count, but they all shrinks into comparison to their greatest masterpiece: The Ronaldinho launch on BNB. Depicted below you can see the sussy squad driving around with Ronaldinho and taking pics with him as if he’s some circus animal. They got their practice rounds in prior then executed a swift and VIOLENT rug with Ronaldinho. Ronaldinho post launching the coin: The coin peaked at $400m FDV and is now sitting at near zero. Let that sink in. If you visit Issa's (now privated) twitter, you will see him gloating about his experience in the markets and dropping platitudes nobody asked for. He acts as if he's a market wizard when the reality of the matter is that he's a thief. And now he spends his days at Jumeriah Beach Residence (JBR) in Dubai whilst racing around rented cars and flexing rented watches off the money he stole from YOU.show more

The ground shook on Iwo Jima in 1945. Smoke... choked the air. Marines were pinned down, nowhere to run. And in that frozen second, a 17-year-old made a decision no one should ever have to make. Jacklyn Lucas was just a teenager. He had lied about his age to join the fight. Too young for war. Too young for what was coming. But there he was, on a battlefield that did not care how old you were. Then it happened. Two enemy grenades landed near his fellow Marines. No time to think. No time to hesitate. Lucas moved. He threw himself directly onto both grenades, pressing them into the sand with his body. He knew what it meant. He knew what would happen next. The explosions hit. Sand, metal, and shock tore through him. His body absorbed the blast meant for everyone else. Around him, Marines who should have been gone were still breathing. He had taken it all. By some miracle, he survived. But survival came at a cost. His body was shattered. Dozens of wounds. Long months of recovery. Pain that never truly left. At 17, he had already given more than most people ever will. He received the Medal of Honor. One of the youngest ever. But medals do not follow you home at night. The war stayed with him. The memories. The weight of that moment. The knowledge of what he did and what it took from him. He lived a long life after that day. But the world moved on. The story faded. The boy who jumped on 2 grenades so others could live slowly became just another forgotten name in history. 17 years old. One decision. A lifetime of scars. And today, almost nobody remembers. 🙏show more
