And turns out she was just. bored!

UPDATE: Woah Vicky says she started the false rumor that she was kidnapped in Nigeria.

“I was just bored forgive me y’all,” she said.

Her fans and critics were not amused however, with many slamming her for spreading such rumor using a country that kidnapping actually happens… pic.twitter.com/bJISJ4v0kJ

As one can assume the reaction from the Black community went from "Please, keep her" and "This is obviously fake" to "Darnit, we wish she was really kidnapped"

but they're still mad at her for being a racist b-word

WELL WELL WELL

Not a great way to start 2025 with the death and destruction and all but it's good to know I'll be right about everything all the time in every way for yet another year

Recently, I suffered a massive injustice at the hands of @ToeBeans, and I wish to talk about it because it concerns a lot of important societal topics. Recently, @ToeBeans made a lighthearted thread asking people why they were still up. The humor is obvious - as a global website, there are obviously many users for whom it is not night, but @ToeBeans is acting like it is bedtime for everybody. It is also a relatable thread, as we have all had the experience of suffering from insomnia and finding ourselves browsing this godforsaken site.

https://rdrama.net/post/334265/why-are-you-up-so-late

I was one of the first people to respond to the thread, and I think I gave a worthwhile answer.

I left the thread and tended to other matters. When I returned, to my surprise, the thread had blown up and there were over a hundred replies. I jumped back into the thread to consume the new content but I soon found myself crestfallen. @ToeBeans had responded to everybody except for me. It felt like a knife to the gut, like having acid thrown on your face. Sadly, it wasn't an unfamiliar feeling, however, and the sadness that fell over me was something like an old friend. This is a situation I've dealt with plenty of times in my life - being ignored, overlooked, ostracized - and it comes down to heightism.

What Is Heightism?

Heightism is the discrimination of others based on their height. This is a harsh form of discrimination because one cannot change their height. It is a form of discrimination that mainly affects men, and it permeates all spheres of life. Height is used to judge one's fitness, attractiveness, and worth.

This is apparent when we look at the world of economics. What the studies show is absolutely darning.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_discrimination

Summing up the Wikipedia article:

1. Your height at 16 determines your whole life's earning power

• They also found that men's wages as adults could be linked to their height at age 16

• The researchers found that on an average an increase in height by one inch at age 16 increased male adult wages by 2.6 percent. This is equal to increase of approximately $850 in 1996 annual earnings. In other words, the height and corresponding social experiences of taller male adolescent at age 16 would likely translate to higher wage in later adulthood as compared to shorter male adolescent.

2. Your height determines what jobs you can have, even if height has nothing to do with your duties

• Studies have shown that short people are paid less than taller people, with disparities similar in magnitude to the race and gender gaps

3. Your height determines whether you will hold any leadership positions. If you're below 5 foot 7, you have almost NO chance of ever holding a leadership position

• Surveys have uncovered that less than 3% of CEOs were below 1.70 m (5 ft 7 in) in height. 90% of CEOs are of above average height

Heightism isn't limited to the world of money. It also extends into the romantic realm. Here, things get brutal for short men.

1. Women prefer taller men

• in a 2019 survey performed by Ipsos in Hungary with over 500 respondents, the perfect height for men for 53% of participants was between 1.78 m (5 ft 10 in) to 1.85 m (6 ft 1 in)

What Are the Effects of Heightism?

By now it should be obvious that heightism is not benign, nor is it a laughing matter. As a 156cm man, I have felt the harsh effects of heightism and it has permanently scarred my psyche and moulded me into who I am today, for better and for worse. There are no organisations or groups to come to my aid, and if I complain about the obvious discrimination I face, I am ridiculed. Heightism is suffered in private, and you are led to believe it is non-existent. Nobody has sympathy for you when you're short. You're always overlooked, never seen as a leader, you're always just "less than".

As you would imagine, research has shown that going through life as a short man has deleterious effects on the psyche.

• A study produced by the Universities of Groningen and Valencia, found that the taller a man was, the less anxious he felt about attractive, physically dominant, and socially powerful rivals

• it was found that a 5-cm (2-inch) increase in height was associated with a 9% decrease in suicide risk

Conclusion

When @ToeBeans ignored me, I felt that pain of being a manlet. That familiar feeling of being unseen and rejected for factors outside of my control. I put my best foot forward and I got overlooked. What's sad is that I've always tried to be nice to @ToeBeans so I don't know what I did to deserve this treatment.

But all that doesn't matter. I don't matter. I'm just a worthless manlet so nothing I do matters. I feel like cutting myself but I'm not going to do it. I'm dedicated to having a benzo and cutting free 2025. Nobody will take me off my path to self-improvement. I can't control what others think of me but I can control myself.

The only way this stops is when the girls (female) stop competing against men. Apparently their parents have no desire to protect girls' sports. The government obviously doesn't

Biden gets a bad rap, and while some criticism directed at his administration is warranted, especially when it comes to his admin's communication problems and some policies that were a bit out of touch with liberal voters, Biden achieved some things while in office, while the benefits won't be felt for years to come. (See my reply for more information)I mean, my biggest criticism of Biden was his decision to run for a second term, this put Democrats in a tough spot, and this decision, in no small part, contributed to a Trump victory.I want to recognize however, that not only was Biden stuck between a rock and a hard place when he first stepped foot into office, and thanks in part to the failures of the previous administration, as well as the economic and political fallout from the pandemic, but over the past 4 years, a portion of the American electorate have been far more concerned about their immediate circumstances than any messaging emphasizing some of Biden's successes and/or Tr...

Biden's team was solid enough. I think they were heading a correct direction for if they wanted to maintain the Neoliberal project. Waaaay too little ten years too late. And some of their calls were just... very typically center-stupid. But overall? They did a decent job considering that...... Joe Biden is irredeemably stupid and awful. And should go frick himself. He spent over a year giving Israel a free pass to do genocide and doing virtually nothing to stop it. And you can tell it was his call because every leak from the administration told that people were trying so hard to make a ceasefire. But the weak link was Joe "You don't have to be a Jew to be a Zionist" Biden.And the election. What a selfish, awful decision. He just handed our nation's future over to NrX-types and Pseudo-Falangists because he couldn't stomach being a one term president. Because of one stupid old man, we are headed towards mid-century climate and humanitarian disaster irrevisibly. The repub... (0)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Weak and feckless, mostly. Made the disastrous decision to appoint a gutless coward as Attorney General right off the bat, then when Trump started to rise again he, as the leader of his party, failed to organize a response. Then he backed down from a direct conflict with Netanyahu as he butchered Gazans in front of every TV screen in the world, meekly offering up "stern warnings" when he had much more powerful cowtools at his disposal.And most darning of all, his towering arrogance to run for a second term at his age because he believed he was the only person who could doomed the country to a full fascist takeover, leading to what will likely be a lot of terror, suffering, and death for Americans and everyone else.Ultimately, he failed to recognize that politics had fundamentally changed since the 80s, and tried to play by Marquess of Queensbury rules when his opponent was carrying a knife. His failure is complete and total, because anything he accomplished during his term is going to ... (1)

I'll be honest, I was a strong supporter of Kamala Harris and after she lost, I stopped caring about US politics as a whole. From browsing Reddit, I'd occassionally see headlines about Elon Musk but I didn't read much because I had kinda given up on America. Imagine my shock when a video popped up on YouTube and I decided to watch it. Trump and Vance utterly OBLITERATED Zelensky on the world stage. It was brutal and very needed. I smiled because it felt like the world was healing, wodie. America is the most based country in the world right now, and it's not even close.

Harris was a poor choice for a candidate. Biden should have stepped down a lot earlier and there should have been a primary, which would have resulted in a more capable candidate. (-22)

When they put her up for the POTUS run I worried about some things. Misogyny and racism in the democrats was one thing. The other was if you could get enough white men out to vote after telling them they are scum since the 90s when PC came about. Well it began to look like the dems had that same worry when they grabbed Midwestern Dad Tim to show they don't hate straight white men. It didn't work and Trump won. So it is time to learn from the Republicans. Be a group, don't just be a mess of people who are against the republicans but ready to gut a fellow dem for a little camera time. Saying "I never thought Al Franken would step down when we demanded he do it, just so we could get some pander points." still leaves congress without women's greatest ally and lets the dems know you are amoral scum (maybe try joining the Republicans if that is who you are). If you like throwing out terms like "white privilege" you are the ones driving Dem voters away from the polls. Honestly, do you thi... (1)

Ok now hold on a second. It is absolutely unfair to claim that they had no policy plan when they literally had a 93-page policy outline on their campaign website. (53)

This right here.I stumbled into this sub from the front page. I'm a conservative Xennial (in my forties).And frankly I'm disgusted and extremely disappointed reading all of these comments. "She didn't do this, she didn't do that, blah blah".Yah, she/they did. Putting aside the fact that anyone with a brain cell can see Trump for the scumbag traitor he and his entire base is (and they are), Harris didn't need to come to your house personally, spoon-feed you your dinner, tuck your little asses into bed, pat your head and tell you what big boys you were. But you are all acting like anything less than that is why you lazy, entitled asses stayed home or voted for Trump.She held speeches. They laid out their policies on their website. They did interviews. And if you dug through the past politics, voting records, and attempts made by Democrats in the past (including under Biden), it's plain as day the Dems have been trying to get you what you people b-word and complain about needing/wanting...

What if you agree with majority of what trump campained for minus abortion which a lot of middle of the road politically people agree with? You can still get mad if trump acts like an idiot but that one ad slogan really hit it home. "Harris is for they/then trump is for you.No one wants potentially criminal unchecked illegal immigrants taking over cities the way new york was. People are tired of all the dei bullshit infesting every aspect of life and in reality it is racist to give people of a certain color more advantage just because they are in a "minority" group. The price of food and eggs will go up no matter who is president since that is a result of market movements not what a president wishes for. Trump cannot lower the price of eggs anymore than Biden could forcing price ceilings. You can hate trump while voting republican. I challenge you to find to any person that voted for trump who actually likes him as a president. He is just a lesser evil from the choices and the dems ... (1)

in its time as one of the deadest( but best) esports of all time, competitive tf2 has had numerous dramas, some funnier than others. most of these are libertarian drama. one notable one occurred back in 2016

b4nny

Grant "B4nny" Vincent is the most successful competitive tf2 player of all time, having at least 30 tournament wins, 4 international tournament wins and numerous other meaningless trophies for his collection since 2008, racking up over 28,000 hours in the game. (no seriously) He is notable for being perhaps the only tf2 player to have made a career from streaming and for his enormous ego, creating numerous moments of hilarity.

(there will be more.)

one of b4nny's most redeeming traits (at least in the past) remains his penchant for tweeting.

his tweet game was so prolific that there is a 15 page thread on the main competitive tf2 forum compiling people's favorites

https://www.teamfortress.tv/32408/favorite-b4nny-tweet

some of these have caused immense seethe.

some of my favourites include:

(ok, this one is pretty funny, hes making fun of someone for not going to lan because of school or something lol)

despite his mastermind X antics b4nny has had a rough relationship with the community through the years.

initially starting off well liked, something seemed to snap in b4nny's heart, turning it cold.

maybe this was when he got cucked by his teammate and continued to play with him after finding out because he loves winning that much. Maybe it was his own teammate leaving mid-playoffs match due to him insisting on swapping the team's roles around for some reason, causing his team to get upset, get 3rd place (up to this point b4nny hadnt been either 1st or second in the top division for 4 years!) and disband immediately after. This also happened again like 7 years later but thats a different story.

B4nny immediately rebuilt his team with new up and coming players (including some who would go on to play in theoverwatch league (lolll)

all was well in b4nny's camp. He had recently met his funding goal to attend the 2016 international lan hosted in some shithole in england idk lol

one fateful day, b4nny decided to beat his liver and stream drunk. Clearly intoxicated, b4nny streamed on. meanwhile an up and coming top european player by the name of thalash decided to do some trolling by insinuating that b4nny was getting carried by his now ex-teammate who had cucked him in the past. B4nny's ego, already more inflated than the hindenburg (RIp crodies) reached nuclear meltdown levels. how dare a player who has never gone to LAN talk down on me like this!

b4nny also has a bizarre half-joking hatred for european players, berating their playstyle constantly for being slow and boring (true)

these factors lead to b4nny going on a legendary drunken tangent raving about europeans, accolades and how thalash is the equivalent of what someone might call a plumber or taxi driver driver in the UFC.

the most notable part of this autism fueled rant is b4nny's legendary statement that he requests his new found foe utter when he loses to him on lan(0:33 seconds in video 1 :) )

im sorry im not good i apologize for my ego please forgive me, im just europeean.

uh oh!

this sparks huge drama in the community, with some pointing out that thalash was provoking an obviously deathly drunk b4nny while others laughed at his ego about an already small esport.

august 26, 2016

b4nny has arrived in europe with his team to smite the europeeans once and for all.

[lUPS7b3.jpg]

at his sexiest, he is ready to take the win and prove why blumpfkenstiltskin needs to stop giving aid to twink european panhandlers.

can you guess what happens?

[shhdhdh.PNG]

[fgfg.PNG]

b4nny loses, becoming a laughing stock and likely killing some hobo in retaliation (he lived in la).

b4nny later returns to his uncrushable winning ways, winning every single major tournament in NA until 2021 and eventually getting his getback on thalash in 2018 and 2019 at lan, one being in NA one being in ingerland.

b4nny still plays to this day. i think despite his insufferable ego, its quite impressive hes been able to dedicate himself to this without roping or moving on to another esport. hes clearly a talented team leader and team builder.

ill probably never post again on this site but theres so much funny drama from this esport holy shit lol
