260504 #SUNGHANBIN Live ➕💬 how sung hanbin saved the members' names: kim jiwoong → woongie hyung kim taerae → t-rae seok matthew → cube matthew park gunwook → bopeul gunwookie 🐹🐱: for matthew, it’s literally "cube matthew." i have his id photo from when he was maybe 17 as his contact picture, so it pops up whenever he calls. i’m telling you now though, i can’t show it to you. i’d get in trouble with matthew so i can't show it, and that’s why he’s cube matthew... and for gunwookie, if i change "bopul gunwookie," it feels like all those memories we’ve shared would just disappear, so i’d rather just keep it that way. even if he’s a bit sad about it, it’s my way of showing affection, so i’m not changing it~

“It’s not the end, but an ‘and.’” - Kim Jiwoong Today, we place a special bookmark in a chapter that meant so much to so many people in this story we have all shared together. ZEROBASEONE was never just nine members sharing the same stage, it became a home where nine dreams that began at the same starting line. A place where the members could rely on one another, grow together, lean on each other, and create memories that Zerose will carry forever. Watching them over the years, it became clear how much that home meant to Jiwoong. To Hao. Thank you for being someone Jiwoong could quietly lean on throughout this journey. As hyungs together, there was always an unspoken understanding between you, the kind that didn’t need many words. Standing side by side while guiding the team, sharing both the responsibility and the quiet moments in between, you became someone he trusted deeply. Your future is so bright, and we know your only hyung will always be quietly cheering for you. To Ricky. From the very beginning, Jiwoong spoke about how strong your presence was when he first saw you. As time passed, that presence became something your hyung quietly admired, someone who always stood confidently as his true self. Watching you grow your own unique color to the team was something Jiwoong carried with pride, and the bond you shared became one filled with quiet respect and admiration. We can’t wait to see you grow even more into the amazing role model you strive to be. To Gyuvin. So many of Jiwoong’s memories with you were filled with laughter. Your bright energy, playful teasing, and the way you naturally stayed close to your hyung created moments that felt warm and effortless. But beyond the laughter, you were also someone who quietly looked after him, someone Jiwoong once shared is often the first to notice when he is sad or down. Those small, quiet moments of care will always remain some of Jiwoong’s most precious memories. We know that wherever you go, you will take this immense and precious love and share it with everyone around you. To Yujin. Your bond with Jiwoong was always something deeply special. As the maknae, you were someone he naturally wanted to protect and care for, just like a real younger brother. From being each other’s gganbu to the countless small moments you shared, he watched you grow little by little throughout this journey. Seeing that growth, and being there beside you as your hyung, we are as proud of you like Jiwoong is. We know you will continue to shine and grow into someone your Jiwoong hyung will always be proud of. To Hao, Ricky, Gyuvin, & Yujin. Thank you for standing beside Jiwoong during this precious chapter of his life. Each of you shared a different bond with him, but together you were four of the nine pieces that made up the home he found in ZEROBASEONE, and part of the journey where his dream of standing on stage as an idol became reality. Just like Jiwoong once said, “this is not the end, but ‘and’.” And now, a new chapter in ZEROBASEONE’s story begins. As Jiwoong continues forward with Hanbin, Matthew, Taerae, and Gunwook, they carry not only the name of ZEROBASEONE, but also the memories, friendships, love, and dreams that all nine members created together into the future. To all nine members, thank you for the story you gave Zerose. And thank you for being the people who stood beside your hyung, laughed with him, and helped make his dream shine on stage. These first chapters written by nine members will always remain part of ZEROBASEONE’s story. And this place will always be your home, no matter what path each of the nine of you takes in the future. The door to this home will always remain open. And your Jiwoong hyung will always be there to welcome you home. Once a Zerose, always a Zerose. Once a member of ZEROBASEONE, always a member of ZEROBASEONE. 🤍 #KIMJIWOONG #김지웅 #キムジウン #金地雄 #ZEROBASEONE #ZB1 #제로베이스원

gunwook day 3 encore full ending ment 😭 💌 🧸 i need to deliver a message so i’ll hold back a bit. okay so, time has really flown by really fast… the tour… i mean after the tour, and performing today. starting with ‘here i am’ and all the title songs.. it’s just all these songs, all these performances… it reminds me of the times we worked on all that. and all the emotions i had back then… the situation of the members. all the things we’ve said to each other… and all of that is just so… it feels it was just yesterday. and it was hard for me to hold back my emotions. but still, i held back for this performance! so i really tried to meet eyes with the members… i thought i would cry so hard if i did, unable to perform. i was just looking down at the ground. but thinking about it now, i should have just looked at them at least once more, and just gone with it. and now, since we can’t meet up as much anymore. even if it would have made me cry, i should have looked at them once more. that’s what i thought, so i have no regrets. also, yesterday i talked a bit about zerose. so, today i want to talk about the members. you could say that it’s just a coincidence that we’ve meet up but the fact that we’re come this far is destiny. and also, i think that my team means more to me than just a simple idol group relationship. i can say that with confidence. so after i debuted, the reason i didn’t feel lonely… it’s all thanks to my members. i can knock on the doors if im bored, i can text them, telling them to game with me that was what held me up for the past 3 years. also, i have a personality, i cant say i have a great personality but the members enabled me to try to work even harder on that. im so thankful for the way they helped me grow. im grateful that i have such great members and im thankful for the 8 who watched my back. im happy to have them walk before me. and also, going forward, im sure we can meet up in private too. but still, we shared so many moments on stage and that leaves regrets too. and to zerose who united 8 of us, thank you so much. i can’t talk about the past 3 years within a few minutes but it’s just … ive been grateful from the bottom of my heart. im so lucky to be a part of zb1. it was filled with beautiful moments that might never come again and the members thy made it possible ricky, taerae, hanbin, yujin, gyuvin, matthew, jiwoong. this has been zb1’s park gunwook. thank you so much for everything!

🦌 &team, right. i met up with k hyung from &team. let me tell you the story. i just parted ways with him. so, i met up with k hyung. he had told me before, "if you come to japan, hit me up. let’s grab a meal." but honestly, everyone says things like that, and actually following through to the point where you sit down and eat together isn’t that easy. you get what i mean, right? it’s kind of like when someone asks, "hey, are you going through a tough time these days?" a lot of the time, they’re not genuinely offering to sit down and listen or comfort me. most of the time, it just means they’re curious about how i’ve been and want to catch up on my life. but when i actually reached out to k hyung, he immediately said he was free today, so we went out for a meal and then stopped by a café. and honestly, it was so much fun. even though it was our first time eating together, i felt more comfortable than i do with some of my hometown friends. since he speaks korean well, it made things even easier. and as for me, i’ve learned just enough japanese to at least try and make k hyung laugh. i tried being a little playful, and luckily, k hyung laughed at my jokes. that was a relief, i would’ve been embarrassed otherwise. i laughed a lot, and k hyung did too. we ate, and since k hyung likes walking, we walked around a bit too. he started this career way earlier than i did, so he gave me some advice. but honestly… i don’t even remember what we talked about. it’s like when you meet up with an old friend and later think, "wait, what did we even talk about?" and you can’t remember anything. i was so happy. when i go to apgujeong with hanbin hyung or gunwook, i tend to say, "since we’re in apgujeong, i’ll pay." but when we go often, we just take turns paying. so when i went to apgujeong with gunwook to eat kalguksu, i was like, "i’ll pay this time, but when we go to osan, you cover it." we joke around like that. but k hyung did the same thing. seriously… k hyung was really just like me… it felt like if we met a second time, one of us might disappear, like what happens to doppelgänger or something, just way too similar. we kept talking, then went to a café and talked some more. he said he had never seen someone eat two ice creams before their meal. i had ordered them 10 minutes before k hyung arrived. i saw that the barbecue place had ice cream, so i was like, "oh? they have ice cream? well, then i gotta try it!" and i ordered two. apparently, that was a first for him. i guess it’s not something people usually do. even after the meal, i had more, and then we went to a café. k hyung was once again like, "since we’re in japan, i’ll pay." he took a regular taxi for himself, but for me, he was like, "oh, gyuvin, you’re a superstar!" and called a van. i was like, "hyung, this isn’t right. you should take this one." but he kept insisting, "just get in, get in, get in!" so yeah, we had fun and then i came back. and as soon as i got back, i turned the live. that was my day. also, i have a lot of friends now. there's younghoon hyung, jungha hyung, and of course, k hyung, hanbin hyung… of course, my members are a given. i guess i’m kind of a “insider” now, huh?

🚨BREAKING: The man shot by ICE agents in California went MISSING, after an eye witness came forward directly contradicting DHS’s version of events… And when he finally resurfaced, a judge ordered his RELEASE... only for the government immediately appealed that decision. Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernandez, who was NOT a gang member, or murderer, as DHS claimed, was shot SIX TIMES by ICE, underwent multiple surgeries, the very next day was discharged from the hospital, and immediately taken into federal custody. And then, his own attorney could not locate him, and wasn’t given any information on his condition. Tuesday, his criminal complaint was unsealed, he went to court, and a judge ordered his release. The government then stepped in to appeal that order, and keep him detained… claiming he’s “a danger to the community if released.” Because he drove his car “close to the bodies of the ICE agents” after attempting to flee. Federal agents claim this was a “targeted stop” and that they opened fire in self-defense after he “weaponized” his car. But, a civilian witness, with dashcam footage, says something very different… and her account matches Hernandez’s. She says agents were already surrounding his car, striking his window… when a single shot rang out. The car THEN began to back up, trying to leave, and multiple shots followed in rapid succession. He did not try to hit agents with his car… he only reversed AFTER a gun was fired at him. And in the video, you can see the agent does, in fact, have his gun pulled, aiming at Hernandez, before he reverses. Hernandez told his attorney the same thing from his hospital bed… that he pulled over, handed over his license, asked to call his wife… an agents fired their weapon, and THEN he drove away in fear. Two separate accounts. Same sequence. ICE shoots first… then claims self-defense. The witness also says agents were pointing guns into active traffic, at random cars, putting everyone on that road at risk… Again, showing that ICE agents are the real danger to communities. But, what makes this more alarming is the custody timeline… Hernandez was shot, hospitalized, transferred into federal custody, disappeared from contact with his attorney, then reappeared in court where a judge ordered his release, only for the government to immediately appeal and continue fighting his detention. That raises serious questions about due process, and transparency in federal custody, after a use-of-force incident. Because at every stage, the “facts” being asserted by DHS are being directly challenged by eyewitness accounts, physical footage, and now, even the procedural outcome in court.

sung hanbin’s letter to the zb1 members (full eng trans) 💌 “my beloved members who feel like family to me, this is your leader, hanbin. to be honest, i’m not sure if i’ll be able to read this letter all the way to the end, but i’ll try my best to express the things i’ve wanted to say and carefully put them into words. the time that felt like it would never come has finally come to us. maybe that’s why this moment feels both cruel and a little sad. during our activities and even in everyday life, i’ve received so much strength from our members. because of that, i always carry a heart full of gratitude toward all of you. the position of leader, which i took on for the first time, was never something light. sometimes it felt like a burden, and sometimes it felt like a heavy weight. there were definitely moments when it felt difficult. but the reason i was able to strengthen my heart and keep running forward while looking only ahead was because the members i love were by my side. in life, even until now, i’ve been more used to solving things on my own. rather than leaning on others or receiving help, i thought it was more comfortable to handle things by myself. but through the time we’ve spent together with my precious members, i gained a big realization: that i’m also someone who truly needs the help and support of others. even in difficult moments, what allowed me to stand up again was the trust that the members gave me. through all of these moments, i felt a great warmth, and with this one belief, i was able to become stronger and stand again. so with the hope that the members can walk confidently wherever they go…so that they could receive that strength, i think i tried even harder to become a good example. because i carried those feelings, there were probably many things i had to say that might have sounded harsh or painful for our members to hear. but there was only one reason behind all those words and actions: so that the members i love wouldn’t get hurt somewhere else, so that their hearts wouldn’t be hurt. if there were moments when the members felt hurt because of me, i want to take this opportunity to say that i’m really sorry, and i hope you can forgive me with open hearts. sometimes when you said things like, “hanbin hyung is here, hanbin hyung will solve it”, it often felt like a lot of pressure to me. but after realizing that those words were actually a sign of the members’ deep trust, they became incredibly precious to me… it made me feel how precious it truly was. and that’s when i felt it even more that we had really become a family. so now this moment feels even more bittersweet and regretful. even while writing this letter, my heart feels complicated and emotions that are hard to describe in words keep passing through me. but there is something i really want to say: hanbin, jiwoong, hao, matthew, taerae, ricky, gyuvinie, gunwookie, yunjinie…my members who are like my family, i love you all so much. even if we end up walking different paths from now on, i will always be cheering for you first from a place close to my heart. so with the memories we’ve built together, let’s keep our shoulders up and move forward. i hope you only go through a little hardship and that from now on your path is filled only with flowers. and someday, when the nine of us gather and meet again, let’s just smile like we do now and make sure to hug each other. from your leader hanbin, who may have been imperfect but loved the members more than anyone. march 15, 2026.” 😭💔

✅ Flew my first REAL plane yesterday It was a birthday gift by my gf and friends :D I think I flew Flight Simulator 1000x's of times and I don't really wanna be the guy on the couch with his flight sim game, I wanna be the guy in IRL doing the actual thing: So yesterday I flew a Cessna 172, I told the instructor I flew Flight Simulator, so he told me "ok then you'll fly the plane" I 100% thought he was joking but then we're at take off, he puts the throttle on and he says "now you're flying" and I took off 😂 He let me fly the whole flight except of course landing and ofc he controlled important stuff like rudder, and did the radio talking to ATC, best way to learn is just diving into the water like immersion so I loved it (but was scary :P) Everyone asked me: HOW is IRL flying different than Flight Simulator (FS) and I'd say FS is only 20% of the real experience: 80% of the experience of flying is you're sitting in a big loud aluminum box with a propeller that even on a sunny day quite violently shakes up, down, left and right and your job is to keep it somewhat stable at the right altitude and on course to wherever you wanna fly, and you feel everything. When you play FS you feel nothing cause you're sitting on the couch :D The 20% of FS is the same though, the cockpit and the environment is just really accurate in Flight Simulator 2020 these days, everything DOES work exactly the same, even the onboard Garmin computer etc. So I think FS does help if you're learning to fly, for ex to practice a landing runway you're going to fly to IRL soon and getting a sense of the environment (like mountains etc) MOST surprising to me was the yoke (like the steering wheel) which feels completely different than if you play FS: a game controller thumb stick or joystick is easy to move, while a Cessna yoke is directly tied with cables to the ailerons (to roll the plane left or right) and elevators (to pitch the plane up or down) and it takes strength to actually move it, I dumbly thought it'd feel loose and easy to steer Which is a good thing because if it was too loose you'd fly like a crazy person, instead you're supposed to kinda nudge the yoke left right up and down to change the plane's course! The best part is just that flying is magical esp when you control the plane. You do feel like a bird high in the skies and it's just a completely different vibe being up there than down on the ground. Especially since you fly much lower than commercial jets. You can actually see the houses and cliffs and beaches etc. up close. Anyway really cool and I def gonna get private pilot license now I think, Portugal has relatively great mild sunny weather for flying in terms of safety, and if shit goes wrong you can ditch in to the water (although that's not easy but ok)

I’d break the Zlatan issue for many people including yourself. Narratives have traveled and I’ve come to conclude that many of you don’t even know what happened with Zlatan at Barcelona. Zlatan’s major issue was with Pep, he had no single issue with Messi, none. Till date, he maintains that beef with Pep. On Piers Morgan, Zlatan said the mistake he did when he got to Barcelona was trying to fit in. He got off a wrong start with Pep because he drove a Ferrari to training. In his words, he said Pep told him that, in this place, players don’t drive a Ferrari. Zlatan said he didn’t drive his car for 7-8 months just to please Pep and try to fit in, which was his biggest regret. Zlatan said he wasn’t performing and went to see Pep in his office. Firstly he went to meet the higher people up there in the hierarchy, but they told him that they can’t interfere and he should speak to Pep himself. He went to meet Pep and told him that the new formation does not favor him. By the way, this is absolutely normal. I have attacked a video to Salah talking with Slot. In fact, you could hear Salah towards the end of that video say he was going to speak to Slot so they could change formations. This is normal in professional football. Players speak to their coaches, especially the big players. Zlatan said the formation does not give him more freedom and it won’t get the best out of him. It’s best he does not play because he’s not performing, Pep is also egoistic, he benched Zlatan for 4 games in a row after that meeting. Zlatan said he created fire afterwards, he started bringing his Ferrari to training and parking it in front of Pep’s office 😭. He said when he went to Manchester United, Pep was at City and Pep will never look him in the eye. I have been able to establish that Zlatan’s problem at Barcelona was Pep, he said it himself and this is the link. I don’t do GOAL, I do facts. ( How does Messi come into this? Zlatan, in his book, said Messi spoke to Pep about switching formations, this formation switch is what affected him. He was playing better in the previous formation, and scoring. This new formation meant he had no freedom and that’s what he said on Piers Morgan, he went to see Pep. This thing Zlatan said is what you guys have been running with. You & I are not privy to the conversation Messi had with Pep. Both parties have never addressed this before to give their side of the story, if they have, you can share me a link of them saying it just like I shared you that link (not screenshots from GOAL please, be serious for once). If any of their mates have addressed this before, please share too. Again, Zlatan’s issue at Barcelona was with Pep right from day 1 of driving a Ferrari, this has nothing to do with Messi. Let’s assume Messi spoke to Pep on changing formation, and Pep agreed, it’s on Pep and he’s the manager. Messi speaking to his manager is normal, just like Zlatan going to speak with Pep. If you listen to the video I attached of Salah, he clearly mentions he spoke to Slot on not defending, and he will still speak to Slot for them to adapt their formation because oppositions are finding out. Players are in constant communication with their managers. Whatever they spoke about, Pep is the manager not Messi. Easy with your bragging too, telling me you don’t just write and no one should dare you to bring evidences. After spending hours in your research, you even slept overnight, and the source you could reference is “Goal”😭 Listen to Zlatan talk about why he loves Messi so much, this was few days ago by the way Another Stop creating issues where there’s none.

In 2007, Nike assembled Kanye West, Nas, Rakim, KRS-One & DJ Premier to create a hip hop anthem to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Air Force 1 sneaker. “Rick Rubin did the original, and word on the street is they weren’t satisfied with the outcome, says DJ Premier. It was a whole different tempo, and a whole different approach. Rob Stone said they might actually want to remix it. Actually, KRS-One called me and said, ‘Yo, I need you to help fix this record.’ Then I saw the launch on MTV, and I figured that’s over with, when they launch the sneaker and everything. Then all of a sudden I got a call back again two or three weeks later saying, ‘Yo, they still want you to do something.’ So they sent me the parts, and everything was different. Kanye, Nas, and KRS did the joint to the Rick Rubin beat. Rakim wanted to make his own beat. So he made his own beat, but at the wrong tempo. So when I got it I had to tweak it to get him to that tempo, but still keep him in the same tone of voice. You can do that with technology. So I had to keep him in the same key. He was at a 100 rpm, but it was 107, so that’s a big step. So I stay tuned in the same zero note that he pulled, sped it up, and it matched. Then I just pieced the whole thing together. “For the video, Rakim came here, and we turned all the lights down, and just made it really dark. Since he’s the only one who came here, when you see the play back, it’s ill. We shot him just with the acapella so we can bring him back in. When I saw that, even though Rakim was last on the song, in the video, I thought he should go first. And that’s how we flipped it around. The video was dope, man.”

Everything you've heard people like Marc Lamont Hill say Pac didn't do is false. The man has the deepest literary device bag ever and he employed each of them well. These breakdowns only show a glimpse of how deep his literary device bag was. Sidenote: Joe Budden isn't a true Pac fan. *We clock figures "If I had a bigger dick or a dime for every time Muthafuckas took a bit of the lines from in my rhymes, I'd be richer than a bitch with a trick with big pockets, (Simile, hyperbole) equipped with a dick that's so thick, it fits sockets". (Hyperbole, metaphor) 2Pac loved implied metaphors. Here, he metaphorically compared his phallus to something large enough to fit into a socket, such as a large impact socket, exaggerating size for comedic and rhetorical effect. "If I had a dime for every time", is an idiom (Used to indicate a very frequent occurrence of something happening. Usually used in conjunction with some expression that one would be rich as a result of receiving money for all such instances -Farlex Dictionary of Idioms) You can follow the idiom with a multitude of different things, and he chose to follow it up with the number of times others have took a bit of the lines from his rhymes. He is obviously referring to other emcees biting his rhymes here. He layered an additional hypothetical onto the idiom, creating two parallel, alternative hypotheticals. Each hypothetical leads to a different exaggerated outcome; one financial and one physical (penis growth). He pairs the idiom with a second, independent hyperbolic premise, stacking the hypotheticals and juxtaposing their exaggerations. This parallel hyperbolic scenario intensifies both the exaggeration and the comedic effect. It also makes the hypothetical scenario even more non-literal and impossible. This is why he made sure the following lines did not just include a hyperbolic simile about the amount of money he would receive from every instance. He made sure the lines also included a "vulgar" hyperbolic metaphor about how large his penis would grow from every instance as well. It's figurative and impossible. The hyperbolic simile and metaphor helped drive his point home. The lines are placed right next to each other for a reason. Great word selection and placement. "Please don't misinterpret what I say to be dirty." The lines before this one could easily be considered dirty," and he is sarcastically pleading for the listeners to not view the lines in that way. This is his way of letting listeners know the previous lines were figurative and were not meant to be taken literally. Basically, he is saying to think beyond the surface and do not have your mind completely in the gutter. It is also a disclaimer for the sexual innuendos that come next. "Muthafuckas want to jerk me, so they irk me how they work me". Multiple things he mentioned here could all have sexual meanings. The disclaimer is there to let listeners know to not interpret it as him saying that, "muthafuckas" want to literally jerk and work him in a sexual way. It is very clever and humorous wordplay. Listen to his adlib right after he says "work me". He chuckled because of the puns he used; specifically the one he had just finished using. Everything here is connected, and it was all by design. He set the scheme up at the very beginning of the verse and ended it after the work me line. The whole third verse is pretty much figurative. With Pac, you always have to pay attention to how he worded things and the placement of those words. He simultaneously sandwiched his rhymes in the lyrics included in my breakdown. He did this by rhyming internally and externally. He rhymed internally multiple times here, and even more so if you count the near and partial rhymes. He even added a multi in there (pockets, sockets). The assonance and consonance can't be ignored either. Pay close attention to what Makaveli said after: "My history so thoroughly involves destruction, niggaz left with their ass bleeding, lyrical fucking". "Open up first to bust, let me see your heart, turn the lights down, cause I might clown in the dark" Is a play off the lyrical fucking bar. Peep his choice of words. They're all sex related. He's speaking figuratively. He used puns. Hence, "open up, first to bust and "Turn the lights down, 'cause I might clown in the dark" are part of it as well. He's referring to sex in the dark but figuratively. It's all figurative, clever wordplay. Word Class Wreckin Cru also has a song called Turn Off the lights. Hence turn the lights down. Dre was apart of that group. He dissed Dre by name in this song. Also, peep his choice of words here. There's an obvious correlation between see, light, and dark. Makaveli juxtaposed those words, using 'light' and 'dark' specifically to create an antithesis. 'Makaveli rise, all you niggaz die when I come I do some fly shit and be done'. The words rise and fly are both related to flight. Very subtle. Lastly, he used internal and external rhymes, both with and without using multisyllabic rhymes. "Murdered my friends, built a new posse, we taking shots at paparazzi go and fly now, nigga like Rocky". "Murdered my friends, built a new posse", is not directed at Stretch. The friends he's referring to are the members in the Thug Life group. (Macadoshis, The Rated R). The Outlawz are the new posse he's referring to. He's also alluding to what his character Bishop did in Juice. Xzibit has a song called paparazzi. "We taking shots at paparazzi" was directed at him. Makaveli referred to him as paparazzi instead of his name. Although Makaveli didn't explicitly say his name, he sent a clear subliminal shot at Xzibit. Makaveli felt that Xzibit took subliminal shots at him in his song, 'Paparazzi'. "Forgive me, I'm a rider, still I'm just a simple man All I want is money, plus the fame, I'm a simple man. - Makaveli (Radio Edit of How Do U Want it) Here's what Xzibit said in his song Paparazzi. "I don’t believe the hype or buy wolf tickets Nigga, you make a gang of noise and never seen, like a cricket I guess that’s why we never kick it A lot of niggas is soft and get tossed, tryna fuck with the Likwit How many niggas do you know like this? Always claimin' that they ridin', but they really turned bitch It don’t make sense, either you’re a soldier from the start Or an actor with a record deal tryna play the part—like that! It’s a shame, niggas in the rap game Only for the money and the fame Edi dissed Xzibit in Bomb First (My Second Reply) but Makaveli dissed him himself this time. This is also directed at the actual paparazzi. 2Pac wasn't fond of them. The Paparazzi are freelance photographers who pursue celebrities to take photographs (shots) of them. Hence, taking shots at paparazzi. Get it? "Go and fly now, nigga like Rocky", is a reference to the "Gonna Fly Now" theme song (performed by DeEtta Little, Nelson Pigford, and Shelby Conti) from the movie Rocky. ""It’s like he’s standing up there jumping around; it's like he's gonna fly." - John Avildsen (Rocky Director) He was also referring to Rocky from the TV show, "Rocky and His Friends". This is why he said "Murdered my friends". Rocky was a flying squirrel in the TV show and this is why he said, "Go and fly now, nigga like Rocky". Makaveli was able to do all of this in just three lines. He got his point across without any wasted lyrics. The lyrics have purpose. He's lyrically efficient here. The way he set up the Rocky simile allowed him to kill two birds with one stone. The wording ('murdered my friends, go and fly now') provided listeners and readers with just enough hints to connect the dots between the lyrics and the TV show, Rocky and His Friends, while still referencing the theme song from the Rocky movie. "Baby .45 but she's still live, one shot make a nigga'z heartbeat stop.” He’s metaphorically talking about a .45 caliber gun being his girlfriend; this is obviously wordplay. That's just not the only layer to it. This is a part of the time motif he employed because anything that happens in real-time is “live.” He also juxtaposed “baby” and “.45” to create an oxymoron. An oxymoron is a combination of contradictory or incongruous words, and that’s exactly what “baby” and “.45” are here. A literal baby cannot be 45 years old. This isn’t just figurative because he’s metaphorically talking about a .45 caliber gun; it’s also figurative because of the oxymoron. He also juxtaposed “live” and “make a nigga'z heartbeat stop” to create an antithesis. The word “live” means to have life, while “make a nigga'z heartbeat stop” refers to death. He said “she’s still live” to also create a paradox. 45-year-old women aren’t generally associated with vitality, but despite her being 45, she’s still full of life. All of this is placed in a single line by design. “One shot, make a nigga'z heartbeat stop.” He’s not just talking about his .45 caliber gun (metaphorical girlfriend) being able to end someone’s life with one shot. He’s also saying she has the power to leave a man figuratively breathless. One opportunity or chance (“one shot”) with this woman could figuratively take a man’s breath away and leave him in shock. She has the power to make a man’s heart figuratively stop because of the “caliber” of woman she is. One shot with her can have this effect because she’s that mind-blowing and breathtaking, pun intended.

Everything you've heard people like Marc Lamont Hill say Pac didn't do is false. The man has the deepest literary device bag ever and he employed each of them well. These breakdowns only show a glimpse of how deep his literary device bag was. Sidenote: Joe Budden isn't a true Pac fan. *We clock figures "If I had a bigger dick or a dime for every time Muthafuckas took a bit of the lines from in my rhymes, I'd be richer than a bitch with a trick with big pockets, (Simile, hyperbole) equipped with a dick that's so thick, it fits sockets". (Hyperbole, metaphor) 2Pac loved implied metaphors. Here, he metaphorically compared his phallus to something large enough to fit into a socket, such as a large impact socket, exaggerating size for comedic and rhetorical effect. "If I had a dime for every time", is an idiom (Used to indicate a very frequent occurrence of something happening. Usually used in conjunction with some expression that one would be rich as a result of receiving money for all such instances -Farlex Dictionary of Idioms) You can follow the idiom with a multitude of different things, and he chose to follow it up with the number of times others have took a bit of the lines from his rhymes. He is obviously referring to other emcees biting his rhymes here. He layered an additional hypothetical onto the idiom, creating two parallel, alternative hypotheticals. Each hypothetical leads to a different exaggerated outcome; one financial and one physical (penis growth). He pairs the idiom with a second, independent hyperbolic premise, stacking the hypotheticals and juxtaposing their exaggerations. This parallel hyperbolic scenario intensifies both the exaggeration and the comedic effect. It also makes the hypothetical scenario even more non-literal and impossible. This is why he made sure the following lines did not just include a hyperbolic simile about the amount of money he would receive from every instance. He made sure the lines also included a "vulgar" hyperbolic metaphor about how large his penis would grow from every instance as well. It's figurative and impossible. The hyperbolic simile and metaphor helped drive his point home. The lines are placed right next to each other for a reason. Great word selection and placement. "Please don't misinterpret what I say to be dirty." The lines before this one could easily be considered dirty," and he is sarcastically pleading for the listeners to not view the lines in that way. This is his way of letting listeners know the previous lines were figurative and were not meant to be taken literally. Basically, he is saying to think beyond the surface and do not have your mind completely in the gutter. It is also a disclaimer for the sexual innuendos that come next. "Muthafuckas want to jerk me, so they irk me how they work me". Multiple things he mentioned here could all have sexual meanings. The disclaimer is there to let listeners know to not interpret it as him saying that, "muthafuckas" want to literally jerk and work him in a sexual way. It is very clever and humorous wordplay. Listen to his adlib right after he says "work me". He chuckled because of the puns he used; specifically the one he had just finished using. Everything here is connected, and it was all by design. He set the scheme up at the very beginning of the verse and ended it after the work me line. The whole third verse is pretty much figurative. With Pac, you always have to pay attention to how he worded things and the placement of those words. He simultaneously sandwiched his rhymes in the lyrics included in my breakdown. He did this by rhyming internally and externally. He rhymed internally multiple times here, and even more so if you count the near and partial rhymes. He even added a multi in there (pockets, sockets). The assonance and consonance can't be ignored either. Pay close attention to what Makaveli said after: "My history so thoroughly involves destruction, niggaz left with their ass bleeding, lyrical fucking". "Open up first to bust, let me see your heart, turn the lights down, cause I might clown in the dark" Is a play off the lyrical fucking bar. Peep his choice of words. They're all sex related. He's speaking figuratively. He used puns. Hence, "open up, first to bust and "Turn the lights down, 'cause I might clown in the dark" are part of it as well. He's referring to sex in the dark but figuratively. It's all figurative, clever wordplay. Word Class Wreckin Cru also has a song called Turn Off the lights. Hence turn the lights down. Dre was apart of that group. He dissed Dre by name in this song. Also, peep his choice of words here. There's an obvious correlation between see, light, and dark. Makaveli juxtaposed those words, using 'light' and 'dark' specifically to create an antithesis. 'Makaveli rise, all you niggaz die when I come I do some fly shit and be done'. The words rise and fly are both related to flight. Very subtle. Lastly, he used internal and external rhymes, both with and without using multisyllabic rhymes. "Murdered my friends, built a new posse, we taking shots at paparazzi go and fly now, nigga like Rocky". "Murdered my friends, built a new posse", is not directed at Stretch. The friends he's referring to are the members in the Thug Life group. (Macadoshis, The Rated R). The Outlawz are the new posse he's referring to.

Eruption - Van Halen - Violin Cover by Nina D My journey to learn Eruption began a few years ago, when I only had access to a 5-string fretless violin. I learned a small bit of it, and quickly realized that I would need to compromise the octave range, and the finger tapping in order to perform it. There are a few covers out there of violinists doing just that, and they are very impressive. Anyone who knows me, knows that I did not want to do that. I wanted to sound like Eddie. Thus began my journey with the 7-string fretted violin. Pretty much the entire reason for having this instrument custom-made (thanks Wood Violins crew!) was to see if I could play Eruption. At the time of purchase, I wasn’t even sure if it would be physically possible to do the finger tapping, even with the new instrument. Upon its arrival, my first task was to learn how to play the darn thing- it’s like a completely different instrument, the neck is huge, I am tiny, and the low strings are super thick. (I also had to buy a special bow to properly play it). If your bow arm falters by a millimeter, you will hit the surrounding strings. Once I had this part somewhat down, I knew I had to dive into the hardest part right away- to answer the question, “but will it tap?” I began with transcribing this beast of a solo into notation. If you play guitar, and you want to learn how to play pretty much anything, you can go to YouTube and find slow note for note tutorials on EXACTLY how to do so. This doesn’t exist for trying to translate guitar things to a violin. You’re on your own. I tried it out with my normal rig. Pretty much dead sound. Nothing happening but noise. I had a few ideas for specialty pedals. Since you can’t really go to the store and try pedals any more, I bought one, it didn’t work, shipped it back, bought a different one, didn’t work, shipped it back, etc. ad nauseam. Months went by. It seemed for every step forward I took in achieving this technique, I took two steps back with new problems. For months, my poor family listened to what sounded like a train wreck falling on top of a car wreck falling off the Empire State Building. Brody even said to me, “it ain’t gonna happen.” So I locked myself away until it did. I struggled and fought the limitations of the instrument. I had some hard practice days, but the best motivation for me is “it can’t be done.” It took a combination of newly learned left and right hand technique, played precisely, practiced slowly for clarity, FOREVER to even make the right sound. The spaces that you need to hit, quickly, on a fretted violin are much smaller than that of a guitar. I tweaked the effect chain and technique right up until the 11th hour on the very final day of doing this. One day near the end of it, I was practicing in the studio and Brody was taking a shower. When he got out, he said to me he thought I was playing the recording of Van Halen. That was my breakthrough day. I knew I was close. I haven’t worked this hard since my masters recital on classical violin. I’ve ripped up my fingers to shreds, they bled, they blistered. Eddie Van Halen was in a class all of his own. His sound, technique, rhythm, and musicality changed the game for all guitarists (and this electric violinist) that followed. I am a far better performer, a far better violinist, with a much larger range of abilities, thanks to the months (or years) I put into dissecting his style and taking the time to do this on a violin as close to how he did it (so effortlessly) on a guitar as possible. Thank you, EVH, for making so many of us better musicians. ❤️🤍🖤 Audio Mixing/programming, Drone footage and video editing, Fog jets and laser programming: Brody Dolyniuk Filming: Patrick Rivera Photography Lighting: Robert Brassard Custom Made Eddie Van Halen Outfit: 3x Emmy-nominated costume designer Diana Eden HMU: the MOBB Group Graphics: Derryl Rice #eruption #vanhalen #eddievanhalen #evh #cover #coversong #guitarsolo #violin

The Reason Arunachal Pradesh is Still on India’s Map. Meet the "One Man Army" who refused to retreat when his commanders gave up hope. In the freezing heights of Arunachal, 10,000 feet above sea level, there is a soldier who has been on duty for 63 years. He is not a myth. Meet Rifleman Jaswant Singh Rawat, the one-man army India forgot. 1. The Dark Winter of 1962 It was November 1962. The Sino-Indian war was nearing its end. The Chinese PLA was advancing rapidly, crushing Indian defenses. The 4th Garhwal Rifles were ordered to retreat from Nuranang due to a lack of ammunition and manpower. But Jaswant refused-"I will not retreat. I will fight." Armed with just an LMG (Light Machine Gun), he stayed back at his post while his unit withdrew. What happened next is the stuff of legends. 2. The 72-Hour Standoff Jaswant Singh Rawat didn't just stay back; he decided to wage a psychological war. He knew he couldn't fight a battalion alone, so he created an illusion. For THREE DAYS, Rifleman Jaswant held his position against waves of Chinese soldiers. He used guerrilla tactics, changing positions, creating the illusion of multiple soldiers firing from different locations. The Chinese thought they were facing an entire battalion. They halted their advance, terrified of the "heavy resistance." 3. The Unsung Sisters: Sela and Nura He wasn't entirely alone. Two local Monpa girls, Sela and Nura, risked their lives to help him. They supplied him with food and ammunition, running through the crossfire. They helped him change positions, keeping the illusion alive for three days and three nights. Together, they held back an entire Chinese division. 4. The Betrayal and The End The Chinese were baffled. How could a few men stop an army? Tragically, a local supplier betrayed Jaswant’s position. The Chinese realized they were fighting just one man. They launched a final, massive assault. Sela died in a grenade burst. Nura was captured. Realizing he was surrounded and refusing to be taken prisoner, Jaswant used his last bullet. He shot himself in the head. 5. The Enemy's Salute When the Chinese Commander found Jaswant’s body, he couldn't believe it. One man. 300 Chinese casualties. 72 hours. Out of anger, they severed his head and took it to China. But after the ceasefire, impressed by his superhuman bravery, the Chinese returned his head along with a brass bust of him, a rare mark of honor from an enemy. 6. The Soldier Who Never Died Here is where history ends, and the Legend begins. According to the Indian Army and locals, Jaswant Singh Rawat never left his post. -->He is revered as "Baba Jaswant Singh." -->He is still serving - He has received regular promotions even after death. He is now a Major General. -->He is alive - At Jaswant Garh (the memorial built where he fell), 5 soldiers are detailed to serve him. 7. The Daily Ritual Every morning at 4:30 AM, bed tea is served to him. His shoes are polished daily. His uniform is ironed. And the most chilling part? Soldiers often find his bedsheets crumpled in the morning and his freshly polished boots muddy by evening. He is still patrolling. He is still guarding the border. The pass nearby is named Sela Pass after the brave girl who stood by him. The Nuranang Falls are often called the Jang Falls, remembering the battle. And Baba Jaswant Singh remains the Guardian Angel of the Eastern Frontier. Whatever you do today, take a moment to salute the ghost who never sleeps so you can. 🇮🇳 Jai Hind.

Cole Caufield’s first moments in the NHL: “When I got called up at the end of the 2021 regular season, I didn’t even think I was going to play. We were on a road trip out west, and I was just along for the ride. Healthy scratch. Get acclimated. Practice with the guys. And man, those were some guys. Shea Weber. Carey Price. Eric Staal. Corey Perry. Tyler Toffoli. I was coming into that room probably looking like the water boy. I couldn’t have been more starstruck. We’re at a morning skate in Calgary, and it was a bag skate, of course. I’m thinking I’m going back to the hotel for a nice nap, throw on the suit, sit up in the press box and have a Gatorade. We’re on the bus and somebody tells me, ‘Hey, you’re playing tonight.’ I thought they were joking. I said, ‘Oh my God, we just bag skated. I’m toast.’ I called my parents and my brother, and that was an awesome moment, just them getting choked up and saying, ‘We’ll be watching you on TV.’ That was the hardest nap of my life. I couldn’t even sit still. I mean…. I’m somebody who started skating in diapers. Me and my brother used to watch the NHL and be playing carpet hockey in full gear in the living room, pretending that we were those guys. I demanded to wear my hockey socks and everything. So yeah, that night in Calgary was pretty much the greatest 15 minutes and even plus-minus of my life. I thought that was probably going to be it — a couple games at the end of the season. But we had a few injuries, and somehow I ended up in the playoff lineup. Everything went so fast that I don’t even think I had time to be nervous. I’ll never forget, I was just so happy to be there and so amped up that we were at a morning practice at the start of Round 2 against Winnipeg, and we’re just supposed to be warming up the goalies, right? Nice and easy. We’re in the shootout line, and I get up to the front, and I had this goosebumps moment where I guess it finally sunk in like, ‘You’re a Montréal Canadien. You’re coming down on Carey Price right now. This is unbelievable.’ I came flying down like a bat out of hell at a freaking morning practice after Game 2 of a playoff series — guys are literally still yawning, stretching — and I absolutely rip one on net. As soon as I let it go, I thought, Oh s***. I smoked Carey right in the face. The sound was insane. Everybody stopped. You could have heard a pin drop in there. All I could think was, Is Shea looking at me? Is he going to kill me? I wanted to dig a hole in the ice and hide. Thank God, it was Carey Price. He shook it off like it was nothing, and he’s the chillest guy ever, so he wasn’t even mad at me. But then I skated back to the line and one of our vets just looked at me and said…. ‘Hey kid?’ ‘Yeah?’ ‘Don’t ever f****** do that again.’ Noted. Noted. I think I went five-hole on Carey for the next two months. The puck never left the ice.” Cole Caufield | Canadiens Montréal

We were on a road trip out west, and I was just along for the ride. Healthy scratch. Get acclimated. Practice with the guys. And man, those were some guys. Shea Weber. Carey Price. Eric Staal. Corey Perry. Tyler Toffoli. I was coming into that room probably looking like the water boy. I couldn’t have been more starstruck. We’re at a morning skate in Calgary, and it was a bag skate, of course. I’m thinking I’m going back to the hotel for a nice nap, throw on the suit, sit up in the press box and have a Gatorade. We’re on the bus and somebody tells me, ‘Hey, you’re playing tonight.’ I thought they were joking. I said, ‘Oh my God, we just bag skated. I’m toast.’ I called my parents and my brother, and that was an awesome moment, just them getting choked up and saying, ‘We’ll be watching you on TV.’ That was the hardest nap of my life. I couldn’t even sit still. I mean…. I’m somebody who started skating in diapers. Me and my brother used to watch the NHL and be playing carpet hockey in full gear in the living room, pretending that we were those guys. I demanded to wear my hockey socks and everything. So yeah, that night in Calgary was pretty much the greatest 15 minutes and even plus-minus of my life. I thought that was probably going to be it — a couple games at the end of the season. But we had a few injuries, and somehow I ended up in the playoff lineup. Everything went so fast that I don’t even think I had time to be nervous. I’ll never forget, I was just so happy to be there and so amped up that we were at a morning practice at the start of Round 2 against Winnipeg, and we’re just supposed to be warming up the goalies, right? Nice and easy. We’re in the shootout line, and I get up to the front, and I had this goosebumps moment where I guess it finally sunk in like, ‘You’re a Montréal Canadien. You’re coming down on Carey Price right now. This is unbelievable.’ I came flying down like a bat out of hell at a freaking morning practice after Game 2 of a playoff series — guys are literally still yawning, stretching — and I absolutely rip one on net. As soon as I let it go, I thought, Oh s***. I smoked Carey right in the face. The sound was insane. Everybody stopped. You could have heard a pin drop in there. All I could think was, Is Shea looking at me? Is he going to kill me? I wanted to dig a hole in the ice and hide. Thank God, it was Carey Price. He shook it off like it was nothing, and he’s the chillest guy ever, so he wasn’t even mad at me. But then I skated back to the line and one of our vets just looked at me and said…. ‘Hey kid?’ ‘Yeah?’ ‘Don’t ever f****** do that again.’ Noted. Noted. I think I went five-hole on Carey for the next two months. The puck never left the ice.” Cole Caufield | Canadiens Montréal

#IronyWritLargeAndLies Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa's former adviser Trevor Ncube, a local media publisher who owns Alpha Media Holdings (AMH) with the President's son-in-law Gerald Mlotshwa, has raised new controversy with fresh attacks on main opposition CCC leader Nelson Chamisa whom he says does not listen to anybody. Ncube has been consistently lambasting Chamisa calling him all sorts of names, going as far as insinuating he is a tribalist and dictator, but the CCC leader typically does not reply. Ncube owns AMH, publishers of NewsDay, Zimbabwe Independent, The Standard and online broadcasting platform Heart & Soul. NewsDay and Heart & Soul are names of Ncube's media platforms derived from BBC programmes. Although he postures as a neutral political observer who only wants to fix Zimbabwe's problems, Ncube - who behaves as if he has a God-ordained mission to do that - is actually a partisan political player operating in the dark shadows and an opportunist who hops from one party to another. He has been all over the place politically - from Zapu to MDC, then Mavambo/Kusile/Dawn, Alliance for People's Agenda (APA) and most recently Zanu PF by association. He is also a longtime Mnangagwa ally. Ncube's politics is not based on discernible ideological and policy ideation, values and principles, but opportunism and self-interest. He is also not principled. For instance, Ncube just went AWOL (Absent Without Official Leave) in 2017 when he was APA chair only to emerge as Mnangagwa’s adviser after the November 2017 coup without even officially resigning from his party. Ncube joined Mnangagwa’s coup project and became its media mouthpiece in a bid to revive his faltering publishing business interests after losing control of the Mail & Guardin in South Africa. He wanted radio and television licences to expand his media interests, while repaying a US$2 million debt to the Media Development Investment Fund, an American fund which provides debt and equity finance for independent media in countries where access to reliable news and information is under threat. APA had been formed in June 2017, with prominent business executive and academic Nkosana Moyo as the leader. Ncube's jumping ship and joining the coup gravy train led to Moyo to reflect and tellingly say that he had sadly come to realise that some Zimbabweans are not fighting to change the system, but to be part of it. Ncube went on to become a vocal and enthusiastic member of Mnangagwa’s Presidential Advisory Council (PAC) in his ill-fated political adventure. Ironically, Ncube keeps on complaining about Chamisa not taking his advice when he was Mnangagwa’s adviser. Ncube says Chamisa does not listen and repeatedly keeps on referring to a photo he took with him seven years ago as evidence of their meetings to discuss local political issues, justifying his conclusion and attacks on the CCC leader on the basis of one interaction seven years ago. However, The NewsHawks has checked the facts and found out that Ncube is conveniently manipulating one meeting he had with Chamisa in 2016 to make it appear as if they have been meeting when Chamisa was already a party political leader in the context of what is currently happening in Zimbabwe. A Chamisa adviser told The NewsHawks: "We have seen the video and remarks by Mr Trevor Ncube in which he attacks our leader Nelson Chamisa and says all sorts of things about him. We have no problem with Ncube or anyone for that matter legitimately criticising Chamisa as a leader, a hugely popular one at that. Ncube has a constitutional and legitimate right to criticise him and other political leaders. That's what should happen in a democracy. "However, Ncube must stop crudely misrepresenting and manipulating one meeting he had with Chamisa seven years ago for cheap political capital, publicity and relevance. In fact, he must stop lying about it. We have kept quiet throughout his lies and drama for far too long. I think we now need to set the record straight in the public interest and stop this charade. "The facts are very clear on this issue. Ncube invited Chamisa to his office in Graniteside, Harare, where AMH operates from on 5 August 2016 to discuss local political issues, including the formation of APA. Ncube wanted Chamisa to be part of that process led by Nkosana Moyo. At that meeting Ncube told Chamisa that he had held many consultative meetings in Zimbabwe and South Africa on the APA project, which he claimed was supported by telecoms mogul Strive Masiyiwa and many other prominent business people, some of whom ended up with him as Mnangagwa's advisers. "At the time, Chamisa had just been appointed one of the three vice-presidents of the MDC-T by the late Morgan Tsvangirai the month before, that is in July 2016. So he was not the leader of the MDC-T at that time and didn't even know one day he will lead the party. In that meeting, Chamisa told Ncube upfront that while he appreciated the invitation to join APA he was not able to do so because he wanted to help Tsvangirai rejuvenate the MDC-T post the 2013 elections and prepare for the 2018 elections. So Chamisa politely declined Ncube's offer to join APA. The idea was to use Chamisa's growing social base to back Moyo as APA leader in his presidential election bid in 2018. "The meeting, which ran for close to two hours from around 9am to just before 11am (that photo was taken at that time), ended on a somewhat sour note with fake smiles because Chamisa had rejected the APA invitation, saying he is a loyal MDC-T member and one of the leaders. Interestingly, it ended with a prayer. "Ncube gave Chamisa a book by Harvard Business School professor Bill George with Peter Sims titled True North, which is about leadership. Since then, Ncube has not spoken to Chamisa, not even once, except on 14 July 2021 when he sent a condolence message to him after a family bereavement. So Ncube is lying that he has engaged Chamisa on political issues and he doesn't listen. There is no such thing; it's just a needless malicious campaign and posturing. Chamisa talks to many people and takes ideas and proposals from them. He implements what is strategic and practical for the CCC given political conditions and circumstances. The claim that Chamisa doesn't listen, does not have structures, works alone and is a dictator is nonsense. He is a democratic leader who believes change can only be secured through democratic elections. Some may not like his style, but that is normal in politics. There is a difference between style, strategy and substance. In any case, why should Chamisa listen to advice coming from his rival's advisers? Ncube is a known Mnangagwa ally and now he works with his son-in-law at his media business. So why on earth would Chamisa listen to advice from that sort of a dishonest person who even lies about a meeting held seven years ago in a totally different setting, time and space? That's ridiculous. Let's must learn to discuss ideas, not people and events; this noisy mediocrity which pervades our polity masquerading as insightful leading lights of our politics is now part of the problem rather than the solution. He has his own system and team that he works with. It's ridiculous to suggest that Chamisa won 44% of the vote going by official results, which we reject as a fraud, and all those seats in parliament alone. How is that possible really? Is he superhuman? He works with others, but it is also true that other people are not happy. That's what happens in politics. He is also fully aware of critical issues that he needs to address urgently, that is the limitations and weaknesses from a political, structural, organisational and strategic point of view. Chamisa welcomes ideas and criticism from well-meaning people, not some malicious malcontents and bullies. He is a bona fide opposition leader who genuinely wants a solution to the country's problems and he is open to working with other people who seriously want to resolve national issues, not noise-makers and impostors. It's time we challenge these false and negative narratives by people who are more opposed to the opposition than the ruling party. Chamisa is an opposition leader trying to help a find a solution to our country's problems, he is not the leader of the country and the problem. He is the alternative to a failed leadership and its policies that have ruined the country with devastation consequences for all, especially the poor and vulnerable. He may have his own weaknesses like all of us, but he is the best alternative at the moment. Anything else is just mere wishful thinking and drama."

💔 This reel from @hannahheinzz really hate Home for me. Picture this: a mom of three, already carrying the weight of severe postpartum anxiety from each pregnancy, now sitting with her 21-month-old little boy who has been scream-crying for hours on end — day and night — for an entire month. 😭 She’s not just tired. She’s at her absolute breaking point. You can feel the desperation in every frame. She’s crying out for help, for answers, for anything that might bring relief to her baby and restore a shred of sanity to her days (and nights). If this video hit you in the gut like it hit me, you’re not alone. This is the raw, unfiltered reality of motherhood that no one prepares you for. Mamas, dads, parents, aunties, grandmas — if you’ve walked through anything even close to this, please drop your suggestions, what worked for you, or even just words of encouragement and TAG @hannahheinzz in the comments. Let’s flood her with real support and ideas so she knows she’s not invisible in this storm. She needs her village right now. ❤️ This hits so close to home for my own family.. My mom went through something heartbreakingly similar with me and my younger brother. With me, it was classic colic — that endless, inconsolable crying that makes you question everything. With my little brother, it turned out he was literally starving. He simply wasn’t getting enough from formula alone. My mom added cereal to his bottle (a full year ahead of what was considered the “normal” schedule back then), and the crying stopped almost immediately. He was finally full, content, and sleeping better. It was like someone flipped a switch for both of them. Every child is different. What saved my mom’s sanity might not be the answer here — but it shows how sometimes the root cause is something simple we overlook when we’re in survival mode. ⚠️ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: This is NOT medical advice. I am not a doctor. Persistent screaming and crying in a toddler can signal serious issues (ear infections, teething pain, reflux, constipation, food sensitivities, nutritional gaps, sleep disorders, developmental frustration, illness, or more). Always consult your pediatrician or healthcare provider right away for a proper evaluation. They can check growth, ears, throat, teeth, and overall health. Do not try anything new without professional guidance. Gentle ideas that have helped other parents in similar situations (again — run everything by your doctor first): ⏺️ Full medical check-up to rule out pain or underlying issues ⏺️ Tracking patterns: Does it happen after feeds, at night, during certain activities? ⏺️ Nutrition check: Is he getting enough calories and nutrients? Some toddlers this age still need more volume or variety ⏺️ Sleep routine & overtiredness (consistent naps, bedtime, white noise) ⏺️ Communication support (simple signs or words for “more,” “hurt,” “tired”) ⏺️ Mom support: You cannot pour from an empty cup — even 10 minutes of relief from another adult can change everything. Hannah, if you see this — you are an incredible mother. You’re showing up even when it feels impossible. This season is brutal, but it won’t last forever. Your baby is lucky to have a mom who loves him this fiercely and is fighting so hard to figure it out. We’re all rooting for you and sending you strength. 💪 Drop your experiences or suggestions below and TAG @hannahheinzz [IG] so she sees them. Let’s turn this pain into power and community. You’ve got this, mama. One breath, one hour, one day at a time. ❤️ #MomLife #ToddlerStruggles #MomHelpNeeded #ParentingCommunity #SupportMoms #ColicJourney #ToddlerCrying #ViralMomAdvice #YouAreNotAlone
