Pauly Shore Breaks Down In Tears After Surgery To Remove Tumor From His Pancreas
Shore completed a full-body scan and discovered he had a benign tumor in his pancreas. Though he was fortunate enough for it to not be cancerous, his doctors encouraged him to have it treated quickly so that that it couldn't turn into something more serious.
Shore shared his experience on Facebook, where he was honest about the experience and the emotional toll it had on him.
Shore wrote in the caption:
"GUYS, PLEASE GO GET A BODY SCAN!"
"About three months ago, I went in for a preventative scan in Las Vegas at a place called SimonMed, where they scan your body from head to toe. They check for tumors, cancer, aneurysms, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, you name it."
"Being in my 50s, I thought it was the right thing to do."
"A week later, they called me with the results. They said they noticed something in my abdominal area and recommended another scan. I did several more scans, and they told me they had found a tumor inside my pancreas."
"I contacted my doctors in Los Angeles, and that’s when everything got put into motion. Thankfully, they told me my tumor was benign. My doctor at Cedars-Sinai said it might have been there for 15 to 20 years."
"Although my doctor said it wasn’t an emergency to remove it immediately, he felt it was the right thing to do."
Though Shore was cared for quickly, the experience took a toll on his mental health.
"Mentally, it really messed with me. Knowing there was a tumor inside me… you just never know!"
Shore shared his experience with preparing for surgery and his recovery so far, and encouraged everyone to get checked out.
"Instinct played a huge role in this. If I hadn’t followed mine and gotten that scan, I might have never found out about the tumor, and in five or ten years, it could have been too late!"
"Please share. Pay it forward. Maybe I can help save someone’s life by encouraging them to get a preventative scan, or even just going to the doctor and talking about prevention. And maybe they can save someone else’s life too. You want to find it before it finds you. I’m all right, and I’m healing every day."

Though Shore received quick and mindful medical care, this is a great example of the emotional and mental toll that medical care, even when it's positive and of high quality, can take, and that it's okay to have those complicated feelings.
Most importantly, Shore took care of himself and made sure he received the best care possible.

Chris Evans' Fiery Defense Of 'Lightyear' Resurfaces After Snoop Dogg Says He's 'Scared' Of LGBTQ+ Representation
The controversy recently came back into the public eye when rapper and music mogul Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., better known as Snoop Dogg, disclosed on the It's Giving podcast that watching the film with his grandson reportedly made him "scared to go to the movies".
Warning: adult language
- YouTubeyoutube.com
Snoop Dogg shared that it was his grandson asking him how it was possible for two women to have a child together that truly "threw [Snoop] for a loop":
“They’re like, ‘She had a baby with another woman'.’'
"Well, my grandson, in the middle of the movie is like, ‘Papa Snoop? How she have a baby with a woman? She’s a woman!’'”
“Oh sh*t, I didn’t come in for this shit! I just came to watch the g*ddamn movie.”
“I’m scared to go to the movies now! Like, y’all throwing me in the middle of sh*t that I don’t have an answer for!”
While It's Giving podcast host Sarah Fontenot found Snoop Dogg's response funny, he naturally offended countless others, who all took to X (formerly Twitter) to call out the 16-time Grammy nominee for his bigoted words.
Some pointed out that Snoop's own life and career was going to cause much worse problems for him to explain to his grandson:
Thankfully, the controversy of Lightyear resurfacing also brought back the heroic defense of the film's same-sex representation from Chris Evans, who voiced the film's title character.

When Lightyear was faced with homophobic backlash at the time of its release in 2022, Evans, an outspoken ally of the LGBTQ+ community, didn't mince words in how he felt about those ignorant critics:
"The real truth is those people are idiots."
"Every time there’s been social advancement as we wake up, the American story, the human story is one of constant social awakening and growth and that’s what makes us good."
"There's always going to be people who are afraid and unaware and trying to hold on to what was before."
"But those people die off like dinosaurs."
"I think the goal is to pay them no mind, march forward and embrace the growth that makes us human."
As Evans’ touching and powerful remarks began to resurface, Facebook users threw his words right back in Snoop Dogg's face, hoping he might hear them and reflect on his bigoted reaction to the film:

If Snoop Dogg is too scared to ever watch a movie with his grandchildren ever again, that's his decision to make.
Why he isn't more scared of the questions his grandchildren are bound to ask him after listening to one of his albums, however, is a bit more curious.
GOP North Carolina Elections Official Arrested For Allegedly Drugging Granddaughter's And Her Friend's Ice Cream
James Yokeley Jr. was made head of Surry County elections in June by the North Carolina State Auditor, Republican Dave Boliek. A new law put the State Auditor in charge of appointing elections board leaders in all North Carolina counties and made Republicans the majority in state and local elections boards.
Yokely resigned days after news of his arrest and only about an hour before the State Board of Elections' emergency meeting to discuss him.
On August 3, Yokeley's 16-year-old granddaughter flagged down nearby Wilmington, North Carolina, police officers after she found pills in her and her 15-year-old friend's ice cream purchased from a Dairy Queen by Yokeley.
Wilmington Police Department Lieutenant Greg Willett said during a press conference that Yokeley purchased the ice cream while the two girls waited in his car.
When his granddaughter—driving Yokeley's car with her grandfather as a passenger—and her friend discovered unusual objects that looked like pills in their ice cream, they immediately pulled into a nearby gas station where they flagged down police and first responders who were already there.
Yokeley claimed ignorance when asked about the ice cream he gave to each girl, blaming the Dairy Queen employees for the crime. Police reports stated Yokeley was serving as guardian for both underage girls for the weekend.
But when police investigators reviewed video surveillance footage, it revealed Yokeley placing the pills into the ice cream for both girls. The pills Yokeley put in both girls' food tested positive for MDMA and cocaine, according to Yokeley's arrest warrant.
MDMA is known as a club drug and has been used by predators to commit sexual assault.
Yokeley invoked his strong Christian faith in his resignation letter while still proclaiming his innocence.
He wrote:
"This decision has not been made lightly. After much prayer, thoughtful reflection and consultation, I have concluded that it’s in the best interest of the State Board of Elections and Surry County Board of Elections, regarding my own false accused circumstances, to step down at this time."
"Based on the truth and facts, I remain prayerfully confident that I will be exonerated of all accusations levied against me."

Yokeley joins a long list of Republicans in positions of power preying on children while the GOP claims to be protecting children by attacking drag queens reading books in libraries and trans women and girls participating in sports.
Yokeley was charged with contaminating food with a controlled substance, felony child abuse, and possession of a schedule 1 narcotic.
He is out of jail on a $100,000 bond.
