​@@AnarchyStockers this might come as a shocker to non/casual listeners of his music, but his "persona" in his albums have always been that of a toxic person and the character has always been self-aware in it. And since he packages his albums as concept albums, people interpret them as him worldbuilding (especially since he's always been referencing movies) with some inspirations from real life. It's most perhaps because of The Idol that the mystique of his The Weeknd character is starting to really dawn on people that he might been just a regular asshole all along with not as much self-awareness as he made himself out to be, outside of the worlds he built. Also worth noting that when he released his first 3 mixtapes, later compiled as his first album, no one even knew if The Weeknd was a band or a solo group or what he looked like. And even rarely does interviews. It's him maintaining the "mystique". Not trying to justify his whole thing, just giving insight into why many people are having recent breakdown of his mystique. English is not my first language so I'm sorry if I'm not as coherent/eloquent.

The play's not about little people, but Davis gave a cast of short kings and queens a chance to play in a farce. He also started a talent agency called Willow Management that represents actors under 5' (and also over 7').

@@bilbofaggin5 Soccer, football, and rugby are all related and vaguely based from the same ancient medieval games, but the accounts vary. Rugby sprung up somewhere in the 1820's but nobody has a specific date that they are 100% sure on. Soccer was officially codified (and named soccer) in England in 1848. Football was codified in America more than a century later in 1974. Early versions of the game included significantly more kicking than the current version, thus the name. In 1976 the NFL (National Football League) was created and patented in the USA. A few years later (early 1980s) Europe was working on consolidating a lot of their sports leagues. Many countries had their own ball kicking games that were played casually, and they were all very similar to British soccer with various names and slightly differing rulesets, so when they brought them all together, they called them all by their common denominator of being played primarily with your feet and called it "football". This meant that most countries, including England, largely abandoned their own names for the game and started calling it football. America on the other hand, refused to go along with the group because the NFL had patented their name several years before, and didn't want to change it, so football remained football and soccer remained soccer. So yes. American football is the real football.

Peter Dinklage actually doesn’t take any roles of dwarves or elves. He finds them insulting, and I agree, and he has still managed to build a career as an amazing actor and activist. 11/10 respect for him ❤

elves and dwarves are both complete fantasy and have their reasons for existing that way within their fantasy roles. literally nothing offensive about it at all.

[@kilobucket]

​@kregman6928 he claimed that the characters that people w dwarfism are cast in are flat and uninteresting to him, but has played "dwarf-like" or small fantasy races if the character had depth besides being short

[@bananapeel892]

Unbiasedly, Shayne is S tier. Dude is good at everything while being the most humble guy. He talked about how he was insecure before. He’s incredibly kind. Insanely funny. Isn’t afraid to laugh at his own Jokes. Has the most wholesome laugh. Shredded. And of course he thinks he’s an A. Also, he looks like Ryan Gosling…

[@swimseven77]

A few years ago, I saw Billy Joel live at Chase Field in Phoenix, in front of a sold-out crowd, all singing along, while he sat at a SPINNING GRAND PIANO center stage absolutely killing the performance at 70 years old. In that moment (and since then), he was the coolest man I've ever seen with my own two eyes. In short (no pun intended), giving him a C is an absolute crime. I'd put him at A.

As a short king I’d like to nominate Lionel Messi for the S tier

[@christinanelson3676]

Agreed! Especially since he actually needed growth hormone therapy and Barcelona was willing to take a chance on him even though most teams likely weren’t. Makes his GOAT and short king status even more powerful.

[@Toadsavior]

@@JohnAlanSmith206 lots of girls want tall, unless you go for the tall girls. I went for a tall girl, and she makes me feel so good about myself that I’m never going back to the people who want me to be taller! Plus, 5’10” is the average height of a white male in America, those girls are on something I stg. Hot take: it’s much better to be able to be tall for a day by wearing alt style badass platform boots then it is to be tall all the time, because the taller you are the more expensive you are to keep alive. More food, higher clothing expenses, often bigger feet which means more expensive shoes, etc. Since you’re taller than me, you’re tall! It’s official. Find a girl who doesn’t give a shit about your height.

@@Toadsavior most tall guys I know have either back issues because they're shy nerds (which is imo the superior type) or too proud of their height that they go through life not developing any other personalities.

[@MoonStone-f2w]

@@Toadsavior it's not normal to over think it that much. You may need a therapist my guy. you're short-ish but not tiny. If girls are rejecting you it means you are lacking in other areas as well, bc plenty of 5'9 guys do very well. But it's totally weird and whacky to wear lifts and cope with your height by talking about costs to keep taller people alive. Like it sounds like you are mentally unstable. I would expect any woman with standards to be repulsed by you if they find out you wear lifts bc it is so damn insecure.

[@friedrichpianezzola]

@samdemonic6570 i don't know about that tbh On the Internet information about his height is pretty contradictory and you only see him often with Bob and wade who are tall as hell so it's hard to compare, but some people who saw him irl said he's probably around 5'5"-5'7" instead of the 5'9"-5'10" you see around So yeah, kinda unclear

[@elizabethfeuerbach5006]

Amazing video! 2 things: 1. Please do a Tall Queens Tier List! Being a young 6' woman, it would be amazing to have tall women represented. I've always wanted to act, but feel out of place in the industry for being 5'8" at around 12. Seeing some women like me might inspire me to be out more in acting. 2. Peter Dinklage should be higher in the list. He turned down all elf and dwarf roles because he didn't want his height to get in the way of his acting abilities. That's confidence. You should check out Penelope as another reference.

[@iloveorochi]

So true!!! I loved Peter in Penelope ❤

[@elizabethfeuerbach5006]

@@JohnAlanSmith206 I would get the usual "You're so tall" "You should model" and "Do you play sports?" comments from people. However, the media and social standards mentally make it very difficult for me. You don't usually see or read about women who are purposefully tall in movies, TV, or books. So, I keep having trouble being comfortable with myself because of it. Fashion also is a pain, having clothes that don't fit properly and the nice shoes are high heels. By the way, 5'10" isn't a bad height for a guy. It's different for a girl, though. Hope this wasn't too long for you.
