Ten years ago, Leandro de Souza was known across Brazil as the country’s most tattooed man, with nearly every inch of his skin covered in ink. His body told a story of rebellion, demons, and pain — each tattoo a chapter in a chaotic past.

Today, that story has taken a completely different turn. After battling through loss, substance abuse, and homelessness, Leandro found faith and a new sense of purpose. He’s spent years enduring the painful process of laser removal, erasing the same tattoos that once defined him.

Now his skin, once a canvas of ink, reflects something else entirely — redemption, resilience, and the courage to start over.

It’s a reminder that transformation doesn’t happen overnight, and healing rarely comes without pain. But change is always possible, no matter how deep the marks go.

She refused to change her clothes — and in doing so, she changed history.

On November 22, 1963, Jacqueline Kennedy walked out of the hospital with her world shattered. Her husband, President John F. Kennedy, was gone. Yet she still wore the pink Chanel suit he had admired that very morning — now stained and darkened with his blood.

Doctors, aides, and even friends begged her to change.
She shook her head.

“No. Let them see what they’ve done to Jack.”

She didn’t raise her voice.
She didn’t cry publicly.
She simply stood there, carrying her grief for the whole world to witness.

Later that afternoon, on Air Force One, she stood beside Lyndon B. Johnson as he took the oath of office. Her hands were steady. Her eyes were hollow. The blood on her suit remained untouched — a silent scream preserved in fabric.

That suit has never been cleaned, never displayed, and will not be shown to the public for decades. It rests in the National Archives, locked away, sealed in darkness — just as that moment is sealed in America’s memory.

Not as a fashion icon.

But as a widow.

As a woman who refused to hide the truth of what violence had taken from her.

Her courage did not roar — it simply refused to be erased.

A 22-year-old college dropout turned down $1 billion. His advisors called him an idiot. He proved them wrong by 1,000x.

Mark Zuckerberg was 22 years old.

Yahoo offered him $1 billion for Facebook.

Everyone told him to take it. His entire team. His advisors. His investors.

“You’re 22. This is the startup dream. Take the money.”

“You’ll regret this for the rest of your life if you don’t sell.”

“Stop being stubborn and cash out while you can.”

He said no.

Here’s what Zuckerberg knew that everyone else missed:

Money wasn’t the mission. Connecting people was. He had a vision for something bigger. Something that could change how billions of people communicate.

So he held his ground.

And it destroyed his company from the inside.

Within one year, every single person on his management team was gone.

The company was torn apart. Relationships fractured. People he trusted walked away.

Zuckerberg later said it was “my hardest time leading Facebook.”

He felt alone. Isolated. Second-guessing everything.

“I wondered if I was just wrong,” he admitted years later. “An imposter. A 22-year-old kid who had no idea how the world worked.”

But he kept building.

He launched News Feed. The feature everyone said would ruin Facebook.

Users hated it at first. Then they couldn’t live without it.

He opened Facebook to the public. Took it beyond college campuses.

Scaled it globally. Built mobile apps. Kept iterating.

In 2012, Facebook went public and raised $16 billion in one of the largest IPOs in U.S. history.

But Zuckerberg wasn’t done.

He acquired Instagram. Then WhatsApp for $19 billion. Built Messenger into a standalone platform.

Expanded into virtual reality. Renamed the company Meta. Invested in the future of communication.

Today, Facebook has 3.07 billion monthly active users.

2.11 billion people log in every day.

That’s nearly 40% of the entire internet population.

Meta’s family of apps reaches 3.98 billion people every month.

In 2024 alone, the company generated $164 billion in revenue.

All because a 22-year-old kid refused to sell when everyone told him to.

He turned down a billion dollars and built something worth over a trillion.

đŸ”„ “When Dr. Dre Fell for Tupac’s Half-Sister” đŸ”„

Few people know this — but behind the scenes of Death Row Records, there was more than just music and money
 there was emotion.

Rumor has it, Dr. Dre once caught deep feelings for Tupac’s half-sister, Sekyiwa Shakur. She wasn’t in the spotlight — quiet, graceful, but sharp like her brother. Every time she visited the studio, Dre changed. The tough producer who ruled the booth suddenly became calm, focused, even protective.

Pac noticed it. At first he laughed, saying, “Yo, Dre
 that’s family, bro.” But over time, he saw something real — two hearts drawn together in a world full of chaos.

Some say Dre wrote beats inspired by her — slow, emotional ones that never got released. Others say Pac pulled her aside and told her, “If he’s true, he’ll prove it without the fame.”

No one knows how far it went, but one thing’s sure — for a moment in hip-hop history, love and loyalty almost collided in the middle of Death Row.

“Not every story from Death Row was about beef — some were about the kind of love nobody ever talks about.” â€ïžđŸ”„

A UK study found that many tampons contain glyphosate, a pesticide associated with hormone disruption and fertility problems in women.

According to a recent UK report, glyphosate levels in some tampons were found to be 40 times higher than the amount permitted in drinking water.

Glyphosate, which is commonly used in farming, was classified as a "probable carcinogen" by the World Health Organization in 2015.

While the pesticide levels detected are within "safe" limits for ingestion, experts warn that chemicals absorbed through the reproductive system pose a different risk.

These substances can enter the bloodstream directly, bypassing the body's natural detoxification systems, which may lead to greater health concerns.

Currently, period products are not regulated based on their chemical content, and manufacturers are not required to disclose a list of ingredients. Gynecologists urge caution but acknowledge that there is limited research on the long-term health effects.

An Iranian woman has a message to share with Americans: "Iranian here, with another pro tip for anyone who's not from the Middle East: Do not allow Communism and Sharia law to take over your countries. They bring nothing but death, despair, and destruction.

Forty-seven years ago, Iranians made the mistake of trusting these evil, demonish Ayatollahs and their Sharia law, and we have been paying the price with the blood of our people ever since.

Just this past weekend, another innocent Iranian man, twenty-five-year-old Omid Saralak, was brutally murdered by the Islamic Republic just for burning a picture of this evil demon man, the supreme dictator of the Islamic Republic, Ali Khamenei. And now Iranians in Iran and around the world are burning his image and sharing it on social media.

I, too, join Iranians in burning the image of this evil, demonic Ayatollah that is responsible for murdering the innocent people of Iran.

Down with the Islamic Republic! Down with Sharia law! Pāyandeh Irān, Jāvid Shāh! In memory of Omid Saralak."

Crypto millionaire and his wife are kidnapped and dismembered after being lured to meet 'investors' in UAE

After being enticed to meet with "investors" in the United Arab Emirates, a Russian cryptocurrency millionaire and his spouse were abducted and dismembered

Roman Novak, 38, and his wife Anna were last seen alive a month ago when they drove to meet people they believed were investors in Hatta, a mountain resort in Dubai, according to Mail Online.

According to reports citing law enforcement, the flamboyant couple from Dubai were "extorted" for cryptocurrency.

Novak had acquired an extremely valuable, elite British AC Cobra vehicle just before going missing.

It is believed that the couple were driven to Hatta by their personal driver, who took them to a car park by a lake before they transferred to a different vehicle for the remainder of the journey. 

It was at this time that Novak had messaged contacts in his phone to say he was 'stuck in the mountains on the Oman border' and desperately needed £152,000. 

'Subsequently, contact with the young couple was lost,' said Svetlana Petrenko, of the Russian Investigative Committee.

Their phones were then tracked for two days in Hatta, and next in Oman and Cape Town, where the signals vanished in early October.

It is now believed the killers arranged for the victims' phones to be turned on in order to confuse investigators.

The alarm was raised by the glamorous couple's relatives in Russia before the severed remains of Novak and his wife were found buried in a desert in the UAE. 

May they rest in peace 😮

đŸ’‰đŸ“± He Went In For A Routine Surgery
 But His Phone Heard Everything.

A Virginia man, preparing for a simple colonoscopy, turned on his phone recorder to remember post-surgery instructions.

What it captured instead shocked the world.

While he was under anesthesia, the surgical team — including the anesthesiologist — mocked him, joked about his body, and even discussed falsifying his medical chart.

They laughed about writing “hemorrhoids” on his report and made crude remarks about possible infections. All of it was caught on tape.

When the man listened later, he was horrified — and he sued.

In 2015, a jury awarded him $500,000, ruling in his favor for defamation, medical malpractice, and punitive damages.

Virginia’s one-party consent law made the secret recording legal, since it captured his own procedure.

The case became a landmark example of patient rights, medical ethics, and accountability in healthcare — showing that respect and professionalism matter, even when patients can’t hear you.

Some would say it's middle class.
It depends on how you see it though.
