As someone who spent 10 yrs in a marriage with a man who judged me for having any type of relationship before him, I can understand why she was scared to tell u. My late husband, who died in May of 2023 of cancer, accused me of cheating, constantly called me a b-word, whore, slut and a c*nt every single day because of the fact I wasn't a virgin when we got together and I had an 8 yr old son when we got together. And he constantly interrogated me at the beginning of our relationship about the size of my son's father's peepee because I told him about the abuse I suffered at the man's hands(he beat and r*ped me for 8 years). And then spent our marriage accusing me of wanting cheating cuz I "needed" a "real" man cuz he wasn't "huge". My late husband was so fricking insecure and it sounds like u, OP, are just like that. An insecure prick who can't handle her past. IT IS HER PAST!!!! LET IT FRICKING GO!!!! Her past is her past. She is more than likely ashamed about that part of her life. But... (-3)

ESH. Wow. Okay, so there's a lot to unpack here with the information you provided. Emotional reactions are understandable under the circumstances, but feeling your feelings doesn't excuse a person's behavior. And OP, your words were hurtful, cruel, and disgusting. Regardless of how you feel and view s*x work, you might as well have called your wife a whore. She did not call herself a prostitute, that is a label you put on her. You only know the side that she is telling you, and from the sound of it she was right to feel unsafe confiding in you. If she suspected you would react with such little understanding and empathy, then what is the point in confiding in something she did when she was young, immature, and probably desperate for money? She also might be ashamed of her past actions.Not only were you cruel, but imo you showed some very ugly colors in saying that you never would have even dated her if you knew. Though maybe if she told you, y'all could have gone your separate ways a... (12)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Dude! That's fricked up!!! You literally married a prostitute. I know you say you love her, but darn! She lied to you this entire time. I can only speak for myself, but I would get that marriage annulled. She's ok with lying to you to get her way. She's used to whoring herself out to get what she wants (gifts/money). You can never trust her. Luckily you don't have kids. Break that shit off and get the heck out of there. (-1)

Remember That Dead Minecraft YouTuber Drama? It's Still Generating Seethe :marseyxd:

You might remember this drama from the previous two posts about it:

Original post from the yoootoober themselves: https://rdrama.net/post/335788/i-have-pissed-off-1000s-of

Further sneeding: https://rdrama.net/post/336959/brave-dramasoldier-has-ended-up-causing

After 4 days, he's still generating whiny children. Technodad is the father of dead YouTuber Technoblade. He came out with the following statement:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738025835pt6ANPpYsGjxQg.webp

It'll make more sense if you read (and upmarsey) the previous posts.

There's a lot of sneed on OP's tweet but it's kinda hard to parse what's being said as Minecrafter terminology has changed over the multitude of years that I haven't played the game. The guy OP's quoting has been tracking the whole situation.

NOBODY is letting our brave dramasoldier off the hook, even after he donated $100 to the charity that the dead YouTuber was fundraising for.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738025836Vijj7d-iRnukCw.webp

Further sneed about both our dramasoldier and another YouTuber defending him, TheMisterEpic.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738025836HR4KIjv3Zte2-w.webp

Not only is TME being kkkanceled for defending racism on the TL, he's also being cancelled for… agreeing with a Turkey Tom video! I don't know a lot about the Wilbur Soot situation as I'm not a teenage girl, but apparently he bit his girlfriend and ppl have been melting down over it for YEARS.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738025836ObQ7qDRGH6z_cw.webp

He also points out in the thread how our dramafren was caught on the TERRIBLE INCEL DATING APP… duolicious. Lmfao I cannot express how much I'm laughing rn

Removed the photo just in case BB doesn't want it up, his face is censored but he does selfdox a lot so…

In the original video, he's basically just making fun of how people look… or the same reason these people identify themselves as an incel. He even acknowledges the true definition of the word at the beginning of the video. Later into the video he talks about how he hasn't really seen any "incels" (or his twisted definition of incel) on the app, mostly because incels are just people who can't have s*x and not he-man women haters.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738025836aBjGg3vGPT0LRw.webp

The video itself is really unfunny and very hard to listen to as this British loser has a REALLY bad lisp. When it gets to the part that shows BB in his true glory, the YouTuber keeps soying that there's a Minecraft YouTuber on the platform. He tries to find who it is but he can't figure it out. The only comment acknowledging this is BB himself self reporting.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17380258376f9G573V6V3Amg.webp

The very last tweet in the thread talks about how TME defends groomers. Well, I took two seconds to find the actual tweet and he doesn't appear to be defending groomers, in fact, he sounds like he's against it.

Original tweet:

The whole argument is over sexual thumbnails on YouTube videos, TME puts a purposefully vague quote tweet to farm interactions. He further replies clarifying that people should be protesting for change at YouTube VS attacking a shitty guy that'll just be replaced with another shitty guy. I find this especially funny when the guy who made the incel video (who's also part of this Minecraft YouTuber gang with the dead YouTuber) also has slightly suggestive thumbnails/themes.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738025837HZMHhmfUJ0IIMA.webp

NOW looping back to the original point… do you know the best part about all this… that incel video was made 8 months ago. If it actually becomes a part of this drama, that technically means he's been generating seethe for 8 MONTHS. Make sure to upmarsey to support my independent research and make sure to show "support" for everyone involved :transheart:

Basedness: 🔥🔘🔘🔘🔘

9 million per home! How?In Chile, that is much more prone to earthquakes sometimes x1000 stronger than LA (most seismic country in the planet btw), most modern constructions (including houses) are made from concrete, and they are earthquake proof, and they definitely don't cost anywhere near 9 million (323)

It may just be because of their extreme building regulations permits and purchasing power parity (10)

Basedness: 🔥🔘🔘🔘🔘

/u/inspectcloser Building inspector here. A lot of these comments are dumb stating that concrete and steel can't hold up to an earthquake yet look at all the high rise buildings in LA and earthquake prone regions.The video makes a good point that the US society largely conforms to building HOUSES with wood.Luckily steel framed houses are a thing and would likely be seen in place of wood framed houses in these regions prone to fire. Pair that with fiber cement board siding and you have yourself a home that looks like any other but is much more fire resistive.Engineering has come a long way (1116)

What's the cost difference vs stick built? (18)

Angriest Comments

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Path dependence is certainly a factor - but it's hardly dominant, or even the biggest one for most areas. More importantly though: for a fire that severe, there is a fairly good chance the concrete building will need to be demolished anyway. Concrete won't burn, but it can be damaged by fires in other ways: expansion, corrosion, spalling, cracking, etc. This is also a major factor in other regions in the US with different disaster risks. If the expected damage from the disaster is high enough that you expect to demo/rebuild either way, the cheaper construction wins out. This holds for major flood risks and for things like tornadoes. It doesn't hold for hurricanes because there is a safety component - concrete block homes have sufficient wind resistance to allow shelter during hurricanes, which is why they are a thing in Florida (even though the flood damage often means they have to be demolished anyways). That said: for fire in a particular there is a level of "herd immunity"... (1)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

This is a legitimate request for insight. I'm constantly worried about how much BS is floating around and how susceptible I, personally, may be to it. Even if someone is worldly, intelligent, educated, canny, or whatever, the sheer volume of misinformation means you're bound to fall for a lie eventually, right?And I can't make any special claim to bring any of those things. So: this video seemed plausible to me. I could buy it and fold it in to the body of things I "know". What about it is wrong? My biggest issue is it doesn't make any radical or harsh claims or judgements and it tells me something o already expect to hear (people are fricking up because they won't change) it's a really easy to accept it and let it add to my "knowledge". What's the catch? What is it making up? (1)

It's treating these recent wildfires like it's a major threat to all housing the US. Non-Americans do this every time there's a natural disaster that destroys homes in the US.The thing is, this wildfire destroyed a few thousand homes when there are 81 million homes in the US. Not only that, it was a fairly unprecedented wildfire that burned into an urban area because of the confluence of some pretty uncommon variables. That makes it big news for obvious reasons, but that doesn't mean that there's something wrong with Americans building wood houses. The reality is the vast, vast majority of wood houses in the US won't be destroyed by a natural disaster. They'll just be victims of time and progress, likely tore down to make way for a new house more in-line with the prevailing style of the time. So, the video is basically alarmist. It's like someone claiming that Germans are stupid for not building vehicles out of 1/2 plate steel because a few people die in wrecks every year and that o... (3)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Concrete does not do well in an earthquake. A poorly designed concrete house will still burn. It is possible to design so that the house is earthquake and fire resistant. The USA found this out the hard way. Look up pictures of cities that were destroyed by earthquakes. In most of the world wood and brick are not cheaper.Wood does not do well in fires. A poorly designed house will still collapse in an earth quake. It is possible to build fire and earthquake resistant houses. In most of the world it is not significantly cheaper than concrete. So choose your poison. LA burned for many reasons. Mainly Government stopped measures to prevent fires. Like water management, firebreaks, defunding the fire brigades, stopping power suppliers from putting in fire prevention. Building codes obviously were inadequate. Forestry /grasslands management is appalling. Personally with current State Government, bureaucratic and community attitudes, I just wouldn't live there. Too dangerous. Looks like m... (0)

Temporary Protected Status or TPS is a legal mechanism that protects illegals from deportation. According to the gov itself, Homeland Security may designate a foreign country for TPS due to conditions in the country that temporarily prevent the country's nationals from returning safely, or in certain circumstances, where the country is unable to handle the return of its nationals adequately. USCIS may grant TPS to eligible nationals of certain countries (or parts of countries), who are already in the United States.

This is a godsend for illegals from particular shithole countries because it is a literal trump card :marseycarlos: when it comes to illegal immigration. As long as TPS is extended, the date in which you had to make it to the US to apply for it keeps being rolled down, and with shitholes like Venezuela who remain unsafe given their actual dictator in chief, the prediction was that it would be free from Drumpfs list of targets as they are neither accepting deportees or stable/safe/not committing human rights abuses :marseyflagvenezuela:

TPS as a trump card is legitimately insane and lawcels use it to a ridiculous degree to prevent deportations. Notably, TPS can be used during deportation proceedings to:

>petition the court to close an ongoing deportation case, with or without the support of a prosecutor

>prevent enforcement of an active deportation order

>appeal a deportation order to then close the appeal once you have TPS

Lawcels will effectively sneed at having a large amount of clients be outright unable to avoid deportation now, as will actual beneficiaries. The sneed from beneficiaries is also going to be monumental, because a TPS beneficiary qualifies for:

>protection from deportation

>work permits to work legally

>social security number

>housing benefits and numerous forms of welfare like healthcare, cash, student loans, food stamps...

So wheres the drama? Soon to come about as the news comes out pretty late night about a niche topic. NYT has confirmed they have a copy of a Trump Administration Decision to shut down the latest renewals, meaning Venezuelans will lose their protections in 2 waves, one in April and another in September and face summary deportation unless they beg to be placed in the enormous queue for a deportation hearing. Keep an eye out for sneed sometime between tomorrow and saturday (deadline for DHS Sec to announce if renewed or banned). Once the official announcement is made and this actually hits headlines beyond one outlet, we may get a surge in Dramacoin (or it will all be unintelligible bastardized spanish).

The obsession with neurodivergent women needs to stop

Seems like lately the internet has been deluged with posts that are along the lines of "I NEED an neurodivergent gf" or "me and my neurodivergent gf" etc.

As someone who actually dated an actually neurodivergent girl for about a year I can promise that it actually sucks. Sure it's cute the first few times she infodumps about her favorite musical or something else, but after the 15th time of her saying the same stuff she did last time for an hour it gets annoying.

It's also really hard to talk to her about anything that's not one of her interests, and even harder to have any serious conversation with her since she just doesn't understand or relate to anything you're telling her.

Maybe it was just her but intimacy was also a no-go. One time we walked past a lingerie store and she had a pretty exaggerated reaction to it being gross. Another time we were at a local art museum looking at a porcelain exhibit they had and there was this beautiful piece depicting nude, muscular men ala Renaissance/Greek statue styles and she had the same exaggerated reaction.

I'm sure all that makes me sound like a peepee but I really did try to be sweet and nice to her and be a good boyfriend in general. I just ultimately couldn't see her as my wife or mother to me children.

Of course everything I just typed is most likely meaningless since they mean the quirky doesn't like going out tiktok autism and not real autism.

… in a subreddit for listing available federal job positions.

:#pepejannie:

Many are upset about this and start arguing in the comments.

There's a literal fricking hiring freeze, what do you want from us?

To follow the rules and not try to start some uprising here?

:#marseymoplicker:

What federal hiring process? No one is getting hired right now, and also, who would even want to join the government at this point? You'd have to be desperate or stupid to hop on a sinking ship…

People are still getting hired. Jobs are still being posted on USAJobs. So go on, delete your comment or edit it to admit you didn't think before commenting.

I did think before commenting and stand by my comment that anyone thinking of joining the federal government in this moment is either stupid or desperate.

Even if you do get hired, everyone received the mass "please resign!" emails and I doubt that trend will end any time soon. And if you get hired, you're likely probationary which is an awful spot to be in. No one's job is special or safe or can't be done by a Musk crony according to this administration.

I mean, if you're already trapped in fed gov, do you. But now seems like an especially bad time to hop around because what boss is going to bat for a new employee?

Plenty of people want to join. There are still posts on this very subreddit of people looking for advice, showing their TJO and FJO. You want to call them stupid or desperate? Fine, but don't try to subvert the reason for the subreddit existing. So both your points, that no one is getting hired and no one wants to work for the administration are rendered null by the facts.

Yeah, good luck to them 👍 I truly hope it works out.

:#marseywink:

Amen. My heart goes out to you mods, I can't even imagine how busy you guys have been sifting through the extra 100K new bots and their nonsense.

:#marseyjanny2:

If anyone wants to really visualize why this is necessary then everyone's history is accessible.

ALL (no exceptions as of 43 comments) who want non-stop rage bait politics here have never before set foot in this sub prior to the EOs.

ALL who don't like off-topic nonsense and support the mods, hammered with downmarseys, are top contributors who've been helping the sub for months/years.

We are being brigaded by trolls and bots, the only people who can possibly abide are the trolls and bots.

Do remember there are a lot of feds who have created burner accounts in order to participate without issue. Does make it much harder to tell who has been here before and who is a bot or troll.

New accounts would support that possibility, but none of them are new - all long term /r/politics users never here before.

Plus burner or not wouldn't change the fact that it is off-topic on this sub.

:#marseynooticeglow:

Did Elon post this?

:#marseyelonpaypig:

Removing posts about what is going on only serves the interests of the new administration. Reddit should be a safe space for people to converse about their reality as a fed, or anyone affected by these EOs. We should be kept aware as the general public so we know how to help and join the conversation. Silencing the voices of people who are worried or unaware of the situation is how we got here and how we make it worse—not better. The teaching and nursing subreddits almost never ban ANYTHING. Why? Because everything is relevant in their public facing jobs, everything reaches them one way or another, the feds are no different. Shutting down the conversation is wrong and leads to/is fascism. Stop upholding arbitrary "rules" that support it.

Post them to /r/fednews where they belong.

It doesn't even belong there, but rprz and the other mods are terminally chronically online reddit jannies who are ignoring rule #5 of their subreddit.

Rule 5 there states no politics, but you can discuss current policies. So discussion of the Fork in The Road, the other HR(at)opm.gov emails, the RTO memos, and notices to probationary employees should all be valid.

Given that our work has been politicized to a higher degree than at any point in the past, I don't think the Mods are violating their rules.

Rule 5 there states no politics, but you can discuss current policies. So discussion of the Fork in The Road, the other HR(at)opm.gov emails, the RTO memos, and notices to probationary employees should all be valid.

If that's what were happening I'd agree with you. However the 100,000x fold YoY increase in the usage of the words "Nazi", "Fascist", and "regime" to describe our democratically elected government suggest to me that reasoned discussion of government policies is not primarily what's going on. When subredditors describe what they're doing as "doomscrolling" that word seems to have a negative connotation, in my mind. When "Solidarity from Moldova" type posts are upmarseyd to the top of the subreddit, that doesn't feel like a well-considered policy analysis by an informed stakeholder.

Enjoy a dead Reddit for a while, then.

Amazingly we existed just fine from the dawn of Reddit until a couple weeks ago when the bots invaded. We chugged along even without an off-topic chicken little post every 5 minutes.

That's funny, you're going to chug along with what job postings?

Yeah, thanks.

That's part of the problem. This can't exist in a vacuum. Everything that impacts hiring needs to discussed.

Feel free to post anything pertaining to the federal application process (e.g. questions, concerns, suggestions, tips, experiences, etc.).

The day one purpose and rule 1 of this sub.

What about the application process has changed due to the EOs? Go ahead, I'll wait.

Nothing? Correct.

Fednews (and THOUSANDS of others) exists, until an EO fundamentally changes the application process it doesn't belong here.

You're extremely pressed.

Uh, no. I think—like many of us—he's just getting tired of the 24/7 complain fest that this sub has devolved into. Go complain to your family and friends. Some of us come here for useful information—not to read people's diaries.

Not much federal hiring practice activity going on right now…

checks usajobs, sees plenty of jobs posted

Gaslamping doesn't work when people have reality right in front of them...

They're not "gaslamping"

They said "not much" is going on right now which is very true. Just because there is some still happening doesn't mean that the majority of possible positions are under a hiring freeze

Thank you. The person accusing gaslamping is literally gaslamping lol

i'm at my big firm corporate girlboss job and one of my coworkers said something about grad school - i missed a deadline last month, guess that's a sore spot for me - and i just started crying. tried to hold it in but all i managed were tears silently sliding down my face. had to slip out after a minute when it didn't stop.

literally been slinking around the office and hiding in the bathroom for an hour trying to stop crying. once, i thought i was in the clear, but when i put my hand on the doorknob to the meeting room it started up again.

i'm so annoyed because i'm a totally competent person otherwise. i'm not even really ""emotional"", like i stay pretty girlboss professional eloquent deadpan all the time - which makes it even worse when i turn into a blubbery red-eyed swollen-faced mess.

all my life i've been someone who cries at the drop of a hat - in elementary school, during ballet class, at parties, etc etc. one of my exes would get so mad at me when i cried and accuse me of doing it to derail whatever stupid fight we were having and make him feel bad. i kept swearing i wasn't doing it on purpose and i tried my best not to cry but he never believed me. i do try!! i hate crying. it's embarrassing and it's a waste of my time. i'm missing an important meeting right now :( i have to go collect my laptop that's been sitting there abandoned. what do i even say? nothing? say my tummy was upset?

Good lord this woman is a MESS. Someone casually mentioned grad school and it caused her to cry for the rest of the fricking day.
