In 1902, 18-year-old Alice Roosevelt was known for her rebellious and independent spirit.

She owned a long-haired Chihuahua named Leo, as well as a pet snake named Emily Spinach which she would take to parties.

Alice was known for her unusual habits, such as wearing pants, driving cars, smoking cigarettes, betting with bookies, and dancing on rooftops. In a span of just 15 months, she attended a staggering 300 parties, 350 balls, and 407 dinners.

Alice's stepmom once described her as a "guttersnipe" who went "uncontrolled with every boy in town," while a friend of her stepmom said she was "like a young wild animal that had been put into good clothes."

Alice's behavior was so out of control that President William Howard Taft banned her from the White House after she buried a voodoo doll of his wife in the front yard. She was also banned by President Woodrow Wilson after she told a dirty joke about him in public (unfortunately, no record of the joke exists).

Alice's father, President Theodore Roosevelt, famously said, "I can either run the country or I can attend to Alice, but I cannot possibly do both."

Alice herself once told President Lyndon B. Johnson that she wore wide-brimmed hats around him so that he could not kiss her.

In an interview in 1974, Alice described herself as a "hedonist." She passed away in 1980 at the age of 96.

This photo captures the iconic Marlene Dietrich stepping off a train in Paris, France, in 1933. Contrary to popular claims, she was not arrested for wearing trousers, which defied societal expectations rather than breaking any law. Instead, she faced a media frenzy and mixed reactions from the French press, who both mocked and admired her bold fashion choice. Despite rumors of police warnings, no arrest took place, and Dietrich continued to challenge norms with her unique style.

There are no stationary objects in the Universe: even our Solar System is moving not only around the center of the Galaxy (828,000 km/h) but also relative to its nearest stellar neighbors (70,000 km/h)

The reason why the storyteller is the most powerful person in the world is because people are more easily moved by mythos than by statistics. Religions are organized through tales and testimonies. Successful ventures are built on missions. The best ads persuade you with emotions:

I love Sinead. A true artist with the utmost integrity and strength. Just 13 days after the infamous SNL moment, she got booed at a Dylan tribute. She stood there for two minutes until she stopped the band & doubled down w/ a HAUNTING rendition of Marley's 'War'. Unbelievable.

Sinead O’Connor has died today.
She was fearless, outspoken, brave.
She was famous for calling out the roman Catholic Church for abuse of children and then ripping a photo of the pope at the time. This caused controversy at the time but she was right.
RIP #SineadOConnor

Do people who operate without an inner monologue not deal with limiting beliefs? Like...do they just NOT think to themselves, "god, I'm such a loser?" Cause if so…I'd like a rewiring.
