Jesús Aceves has hypertrichosis, which makes his hair grow abundantly over his face and back. Because of his condition, he’s also known as The Wolf Man. But he’s tired of this alias and wants to live a normal life.
Meet Jesús Aceves, a 55-year-old man born with a condition called hypertrichosis, which means he has abnormal hair growth over his body, especially his face. Although married with kids, Jesús isn’t fully happy with his living conditions. He says he and his family suffer discrimination. In an interview, one of his kids mentioned, “People call me names, and they even tell their kids not to be my friends.”

He worked in the circus all his life, traveling through several cities. But now, he’s tired of being seen as a freak. As a consequence of years on the road, he’s been known as The Wolf Man.
Back home and not in the circus anymore, he’s facing another challenge: finding a “normal” job. He needs to support his family since his wife works in temporary jobs.
After several failed job interviews, he agreed to try something he had always avoided: shave his face. He relied on his family barber to transform him, even creating eyebrows and lashes.
The experience was difficult since the face is an extremely sensitive body area, but both he and his wife believed that simply by shaving, he would be able to find a job.
Jesús did several interviews, and it’s confident that now he’ll find somewhere to work besides the circus. If this happens, he must shave his face every 2 days.
Although rare, some conditions aren’t impossible to have. Luckily, people find a way to overcome the difficulties a rare condition brings and strive in life. Hannah Tyre, for example, was born with osteogenesis imperfecta, meaning that her bones break very easily. But her love for makeup made her an internet influencer, reaching millions of followers. We hope that, by reaching the mainstream media, people with genetic diseases won’t suffer more discrimination.
Tucker Carlson unveils significant media venture post-Fox departure.
Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News anchor, hasn’t slowed down since his departure from the network in April. He’s been hard at work behind the scenes, preparing for the next chapter of his career.
While continuing to share quaIity content and interviews on various pIatforms, Carlson has been quietly developing a new media venture, which recently launched via Tucker Carlson.com.
In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), Carlson revealed, “We’ve been out of work for 7 or 8 months now; it’s hard to know. Time flies when you’re unemployed, but actually, we have been working in secret and producing an awful lot of material for months now—interviews, etc. And all of it has found its way to TuckerCarlson.com.” He emphasized that the subscription service is part of his ambitious plans for the future.
“We’re launching a brand new thing very soon, and we’d love for you to see it. So go to TuckerCarlson.com to see it first,” he urged his audience.
Despite Ieading in ratings, Carlson’s abrupt departure from his show shocked many fans. In a recent podcast conversation with comedian Roseanne Barr, he hinted at potential reasons for his dismissal from Fox News.
“I didn’t expect to get my show canceled Monday morning,” Carlson said. “But I wasn’t surprised at all. Television is like that. People get fired. There are all kinds of lines that no one will explain explicitly.”
He suggested that disagreements over topics like the war in Ukraine and the events of January 6th at the U.S. Capitol may have contributed to his departure.
“I could feel that they strongly disagreed in the war in Ukraine stuff,” Carlson noted. “But they didn’t like that at all. The January 6th stuff.”
Carlson had previously suggested on his show that federal agents might have been involved in the events of January 6th, leading to outrage from some quarters.
Looking ahead to the 2024 presidential campaign, Carlson made a bold prediction, stating his disbeIief that President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump will face each other again.
Referring to Biden as “senile,” Carlson explained his perspective, saying, “It’s just true.” He pointed out Trump’s legal challenges and Biden’s declining poll numbers as factors shaping his prediction.
