Tombili (Turkish for the word chubby) was a cat who lived in Istanbul, Turkey.
Tombili would sit on the steps shown in the image above and look at passersby, which gained considerable interest from people on the internet and quickly became an online sensation.
Sadly, Tombili died in August 2016 due to a severe illness, but a statue was placed in her honor. A month after it was revealed, the figure was stolen but was returned shortly afterward.

On March 18, 1944, 27-year-old Aimo Koivunen and his Finnish ski unit were in Lapland, Finland's northernmost region, when they were attacked by superior Soviet forces. Forced to retreat through deep snow, Koivunen found himself exhausted.
He remembered he had a supply of Pervitin, an early form of crystal meth used in World War 2. Unable to open just one pill while skiing away, he swallowed all 30 pills. This gave him an immediate burst of energy, allowing him to outpace the Soviets and his unit, before passing out.
When he woke up, he'd covered 100 kilometers (62 miles) alone and high, without food or ammunition. He kept skiing, encountering Soviets multiple times but always escaping, even after an injury from a landmine.
He travelled 400 kilometers (250 miles) to reach Finnish territory. Upon arrival, he weighed only 94 pounds and his heart raced at 200 beats per minute. He survived until age 71, dying in 1989.

The Supreme Court heard arguments in a case last week that could block the U.S. from ever imposing a wealth tax, potentially upending proposals to tax rich people’s amassed fortunes instead of just their yearly incomes.
