View attachment 2648571Not much to say here; just a selfie of Victoria looking :horrifying: Let is not forget that she claims, of all things, hair loss.

“Requests” for an uneven, undesirable, domestic violence look? Sure, Vic…

"Triple kidney infection"

hormone levels were five times off the charts

She’s wearing a wig but it’s set too low on her hairline so it’s taking up a portion of her forehead. You can tell by her hairline and the part of her hair. It’s probably a slightly nicer wig than a Party City wig, but not by much…

I'm so glad you've said something because I've been in the wig suspicion camp for a while regarding her, but had reasonable doubt due to not being extensively informed in the realm of wigs and hairpieces. For me, the first tell was how consistent her hair is. The curls themselves seem to not change day-to-day. Secondly, the lack of paralleled hair texture/volume when her hair is pulled back really just doesn't add up. Do I think she suffers from hair loss, as she claims? Nope. Do I think she has perfectly normal hair that's just not glamorous on the regular without styling, which takes actual effort, so she throws on a wig cap and the wig du jour? Absolutely.

Consider today's photo with an earlier photo from the hospital, when she clearly wouldn't be sporting a wig/hairpiece. We can see in the latter photo that her hairline isn't nearly as defined as it is in the former photo. It's very gradual, with many baby hairs. Totally normal (we all have baby hairs), but they're gone when she's sporting her flawless flowing locks. Thank you for attending my TED talk.

The second picture does look like there's some hair loss towards the front. That could be traction alopecia from the wig.

I dug up a picture of Victoria before her huge weight gain earlier in the thread, where someone groomed her eyebrows and she has a normal sized forehead even:

From her mom's blog

And yes, apparently Victoria has 3 "published" books via vanity press / amazon.

 

[Hyacinth Bucket (Bouquet)]

Is she on some sort of steroids? The weight gain alone wouldn't normally turn her face that round.

Something i dont think is discussed more openly is how, over the past decade or so, people are looking more and more like potatoes.

You can tell shes trying to hide it but if you take away the hair, makeup and facial features what youd be left with is potato.

With the advent of wig discussion id like to draw your attention again to my suspicion for which the case in favor is becoming compelling.

Our suffering kween Victoria waxed poetic over a hospital admission in which they "almost lost [her] due to blood pressure issues" during an upper endoscopy. BP gets wonky during general anesthesia, no? I am not a doctor, but I feel like that's fairly common and no one who's reasonably healthy takes a dirt nap during the -- what? -- moderate sedation required for endoscopy? This is not even general anesthesia, Victoria.

Well, general anesthesia for endoscopies is starting to get really common for whatever fucked up reason so they may have put her under. Don't even get me started on this, ugh.

Alright alright everyone, here are lots of screen grabs of Vic’s real hair to settle your titties. Hair loss my asshole, but I don’t blame her for wearing a wig. Her hair texture is reminiscent of pubes Not her fault of course, just... unfortunate.

Yes, her hair is just average hair. It's not hair loss. It's just the average baby hairs we all get from probably wearing our hair up too much.

PS: Please post thumbnails of large images instead of the originals, which are the size of the Russian Federation. Once you copy-paste from your screenshots into the reply box, the image will appear in the file bar underneath. Remove the original from your post, click on "Insert" then "Thumbnail." This saves kiwis from scrolling through Victoria's life-size face on a Sunday afternoon when they're just trying to live their life.

Noted and fixed. Not only am I on mobile, I’m also extraordinarily exceptional when it comes to technology

 

[Help Me Move This Table]

Pretty sure her face is that big because her absorbed twin is trying to push itself out

That also explains why her facial features are drifting apart like tectonic plates. Some of them belong to the twin and have gained enough sentience to attempt escape.

 

[Sammies#1Fan]

This may have been covered already, my apologies if I missed it...do her parents go along with the conjoined twin bullshit? Where did she come up with that?

 

[Cytotoxic Positivity]

It is possible, but as someone who had steroid "moon face" to the extreme this isn't that. Her face is just fat for whatever reason, but not the typical edema and roundness you see with high-dose , longer-term steroids on board.

ETA
As for the hair patchiness, especially surrounding the face, looks like steroids, hypothyroidism, anemia or one of the many other reason hair thins and looks brittle as you see with her.

F steroids, btw.

It takes practice and some money to have wigs look good and natural. She’s clearly taking them out of the bag from Amazon and putting them on with no further styling. Why waste the time when you could be posting online about your conjoined twin?

 

[latter day taint]

She looks like she has a combination of Cushing's (which of course is not super special and is easily treated) and obesity.

The closest thing I have to an answer for that is this Facebook post that her mom commented on.

It's also worth noting that the video she links does not mention the conjoined twin thing, just twin loss. Which makes the theory that there was a twin but the twin was absorbed normally even more likely. (Other theory being that she's just making the whole thing up.)

Or maybe there was a twin who was miscarried, but she’s making up the whole conjoined thing for the online spoonies so she can be the very most special spoonie warrior. That’s my theory.

Today's episode of Make It Make Sense;

Rethinking 'Don't Blame the Victim':
The Psychology of Victimhood

Ive been trying to understand why the world has suddenly become opposite land without a whimper from academia, politicians, doctors etc and came across this paper that got me thinking about munchies.

Its hell to find any academic material that challanges the insane worldview thats been adopted. If you search for a particular behavior or social phenomenon to try to understand it, all you get is page after page of academic material validating it.

This isnt my area of study, but i suspect the material im looking for is hidden in plain sight and written in academic code that avoids drama.

Another example i came across is when i wanted to understand how patients that are harmed by medical error react. There isnt a search term i could come up with that didnt offer page after page about the trauma medical professionals suffer when they cause harm, and nothing about patients. Reminds me of the theme of last years World Patient Safety Day which was healthcare professional wellbeing.

So when i finally found the above article that had the courage to be wrong and unpopular, it was refreshing.

I thought my fellow munchie fanciers might be interested because they hijack victimhood almost as a way to preempt or obscure the harms they do, and the world is complicit in allowing the victim role to be free from responsibility and blame.

I think it happens so that the victim role never goes beyond arms reach. Perhaps society feels that if we prevented people abusing it, we couldnt abuse it ourselves should we need to in the future.
