I don't think it's maybe, I'd say it's definitely.
I'm fat. I've always been fat. It's a natural way some people are and that's just how my body is built. This also means that I was constantly assumed to be out of shape and expected to be slow in gym class. Which is why, despite me wheezing every time I ran, it took me until senior year of highschool to discover I have asthma, because every gym teacher I had previously had assumed I was "just lazy" and "out of shape" and didn't wonder why I couldn't breathe when I ran or why I wheezed when I tried.
Back to exercise. In gym class we're taught that it's not actually exercise if you're not calculating and quantifying and doing specific "exercise" movements.
The best gym class I had was one that completely defied the curriculum and should have gotten the teacher in major trouble for not meeting the "requirements" (pretty sure the only reason it didn't is cause he'd been there forever and also coached hockey).
For some reason this particular class was made up of a majority of immigrant kids, pretty sure they were primarily Somali, just based on what I know of the immigrant groups that were biggest here at that time. I don't remember exactly how it started, but these kids just entirely refused to do anything other than play soccer. Like the teacher would try to make us do something else and they'd just be like "nah, we're just gonna hang out and not do anything".
I *loved* playing soccer (I still enjoy it) and I was super stoked. For the first, and last, time in my life I actually looked forward to gym class cause I got to run around, kicking a soccer ball and smashing full speed into guys who didn't give a shit that I was a girl, I had the ball and was on the other team. It was marvelous!
And I didn't recapture even a small part of that joy until several years ago when I did crossfit and discovered weightlifting. We'd done weightlifting in gym a couple times but it was like a one day "these are weights, you pick them up, girls you probably won't be able to lift much" and move on. It sucked.
I always forget this wasnโt a thing everywhere but my high school had a fun and innovative way to torment us in PE. They got heart rate monitors. It was this awful strap that went under the bra line and paired to a watch. The first day was great cause we got to set our resting heart rate. We did this by laying in a dark room and napping.
But then once a week weโd have to strap on these monitors and go running. The monitors were old tech and didnโt always pick up your heartbeat, so youโd have to use cold water between it and your skin to get a better connection, gods know why. Warm water never worked. After the day our watches would be collected and our efforts recorded.
The idea was that if your heart beat too fast you were supposed to stop, and if it was too slow youโd speed up. In practice this was ridiculous, staying in the green zone all class was ridiculously difficult.
Even people like me who were stubbornly resistant to running the mile couldnโt stand the horrific constant beeping and made attempts to placate the reviled machine. It was always fairly miserable. I had PE first thing in the chilly morning, dashing cold water on my skin before running around half awake was the low point of my week.
But for some unknown reason, the teacher insisted that no play could happen on these days. We were given the freedom to run all over campus but woe betide us if we tried to make a game that actually made this enjoyable.
Weโd initiate games of tag only to get yelled at for not justโฆ running. Any kind of play was forbidden. On one memorable occasion someone got a kickball and we started an impromptu soccer game with it.
If someoneโs heart rate got too high theyโd drop to their knees to wait out the shrieking of their watch so an extra element was added to the game of trying to win without going too hard. I remember being absolutely delighted, the thrill of that game still lives in my heart, hoping I could score a goal before my heartbeat betrayed me to the hated watch.
When the PE teacher found us we were soundly scolded and the ball was confiscated. Our happiness burst like a soap bubble and we turned our back to the enchantment of the green field and resumed slogging along in a grey haze as expected.
#the only time that teachef convinced us to play anything else was floor hockey#we lasted like 2-3 days of what was supposed to be a week before the teacher called it off#cause there was too much high-sticking and even more body smashing than we did in soccer#and he didn't want to get sued ๐

Thank you for calming some of my fears about this. This is stressing me out so much ๐
Do you have anything Jikook to share? It doesn't have to be about this, I just need some comfort right now.
This is really not something to bother you leave alone stress you? Antis annoy me yeah, but I never let them get to me. Ever. I refuse to let ANYONE affect my BTS experience. Leave alone my Jikook experience. I know what I know, have seen what I've seen, and it will take Jikook themselves to make me stop believing they're a couple. Not some rats on the Internet waiting to shit on Jikook any chance they get.
๐
๐ฝโโ๏ธ
Of course there will always be Jikook moments to talk about. I'll throw some random shit at you. How's that? ๐๐
Random shit No.1 -> I made a post here about JK's type and Jimin's lips keep popping up on every sm recently so they've been on my mind. Which is y I remembered a tiny thing from Bon Voyage season 1 ep 1. Keeping in mind Jin and Jimin are the 2 members with full lips (and RM some but not as much as Jinmin) it would make perfect sense that they are the 2 JK would zoom in on when interviewing them
Thanks editors for the caption. ๐
Random shit No.2 -> Remember this post I made about Jikook living together, remember how I said it was weird Jimin was the only one who didn't have anywhere to live? Well recently this Karmy was talking about how hard it was for Jimin to leave his dorm life since he loves being around BTS sm
Then this Kjikooker chimmed in on how JK bought Jimin an apartment to make him feel better ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ
So guess the theory is that JK is the one who bought Nine-one for them seeing as they were both living there. I mean if anyone should know its fans who live there, right?
When u really think about it, it all comes together because JK moving into Brunnen... a house owned by the company with furniture from the old dorm...proving just how temporary that place is...which again makes sense coz of the house he's building in Itaewon.....
While we are on topic, there is a moment missing on my living together post but we all know it very well.
If you pay close attention to Jimin you will notice him subtly lifting his eyebrow. Its so subtle that idek how people noticed. JK looks at Jimin while members are laughing at him and Jimin does that. ๐คญ So yeah, that coupled up with the fact that they were all making fan of JK and his mattresses but Jimin who under normal circumstances would be part of the discussion was quiet as a church mouse. That was incredibly sus.
Random shit number 3-> is a tiny BV analysis coz we know how much i love those. Okay so JK climbs up a steep hill without cameras at the crack of dawn to get his baby some snow. We know all about that. So tkkrs the morons that they are, tried to claim this moment for themselves because JK showed the snow to V first and offered him to touch if he wanted to. But, aside from JK waiting for Jimin to come out, apart from him jumping up eagerly to show Jimin the snow, apart from him watching Jimin's face to see his reaction when he handed him said snow, and apart from editors saying point blank that JK got a gift for Jimin, we also have this;
Season 4 episode 3. Members play RPS and losers have to climb the hill and bring back snow.
Someone i dont remember who, says that the snow will melt
But JK who's a professional of bringing snow from mountains by now, chims in
He already knows its not gonna melt since he did it before. Now he says that and then looks at Jimin and keeps looking at him
Doesn't once break eye contact. This here makes it perfectly clear that he got the snow for Jimin and no one else. JK stares at his boyfriend for so long that Jimin has to look away/looks down ๐๐
And JK still looking at him ๐คญ๐คญ This dude just makes me so happy to watch Jikookery stg ๐คฃ๐คฃ what does he want from Jimin?
Random shit No.4 -> while we are talking about BV there is something that happens i had to take note of. Yoonmin are the ones who lost and had to go up the hill to get the snow. When the rest got back to the cabin, Jhope was making people this magic toast with his secret recipe. This shit was so funny y'all should be able to remember it. He was so proud of it ๐คฃ๐คฃ Anyway, when Yoonmin got back, Jhope asked Jimin if he wanted his special toast.
But here comes the kicker. Jhope uses JK to convince Jimin to have the toast.
This, ladies and gentlemen are the reflexes i was talking about. It's not just Jikook keeping the secret that they are dating. It's the members too. And sometimes they will slip. Our president being the main culprit. ๐คญ๐คญ๐คญ what does it matter that JK liked the toast? Suga and Jin had the toast too. Why is JK the member he uses to appeal to Jimin?
Random shit No.5 -> Is just this edit I like of Jimin having JK on a leash ๐๐
Random shit No.6 -> Is this photo of JK looking at Jimin.
That man is gone. His mind was elsewhere right then. Jeon Jungkook is a man in fucking love y'all. ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
What's that? Different angle you say? Sure fam, I got you.
Random shit No.7 -> BH saying fuck you to the haters.
Random shit number 8 -> Jikook in Tokyo. The gift that keeps on giving. Here is a fan recounting
Here is that one time members were asked:
One more time from Jikook ๐ค๐ค
He he hee... and we have heard them call eo that many, many times.
Random shit No.9 -> NBD just sassy bfs in the soop
This is mostly for those who think Jimin is the only one who exudes this type of energy. ๐
๐ฝ๐
๐ฝ
Random shit No.10 -> This post wouldn't be complete without us going to the bedroom. ๐ Anygays, here is how Jikook look like when they're shouting in each other's briefcases
That is all... hope u feel better now... have a good one โ๐ฝ๐

I saw Frozen Empire, so obviously I have to talk about it. Spoilers ahead.
Also disclaimer that these are my personal feelings, so if we disagree that's okay too!
So, overall I would rate the movie as good. Not my all time favorite in the franchise, I think that will always go to the original, but I enjoyed it. The story could have used a little work in some parts, but hey, nothing is perfect.
Favorite part of this whole movie: one Dr. Raymond Stantz, hands down. He is so cute as an old man-child whose enthusiasm hasn't waned the least bit over the years. Honestly, in Afterlife he seemed like he'd become cynical, but here his true nature really rang through. And I adore him being a mentor for Phoebe and the other younger characters, while also getting into mischief with them. That little sparkle in his eye when Phoebe asks "Aren't you retired?" No, Ray is never retired, he will always be ready to suit up.
I also loved in the police station when Phoebe was standing up to Dickless Peck, Ray had this face like he was so proud, like he could see Egon in her, memories of him saying "YOUR MOTHER!" ๐
The other thing I liked about the movie was the expansion of the Ghostbusters as a business, with the research lab. First off, I love that Winston, the one who didn't even believe in ghosts when he was hired, is now almost like the CEO of the company. But also, it opens up more possibilities for this new era and allows for more playing with the world building. Though I feel like it was a wasted opportunity to put in some easter eggs for TRGB. Unless the ghosts featured were in the (*shudder*) Q5 episodes, I didn't recognize any of them from the show. Then again, I guess they're newer ghosts so that wouldn't make sense, but maybe they could have been similar kinds of ghosts. Just as a small reference.
Other favorite parts include:
-The near-lesbian romance between Phoebe and Melody
-Ray smuggling the Mini Pufts from Oklahoma (because of course he would)
-Also just the Mini Pufts in general (why are they so violent?)
-The way Ray's face lit up when Peter came to the firehouse
-Peter being proud that Ray quit smoking
-Peter's unwavering faith that Ray's idea is good and will work, and saying they all trust him
-The library ghost (did they never go back to get her???)
-Gary saying the words to the theme song
-Janine in uniform!
-Slimer eating the pizza with the posesser ghost in it
Now, onto the areas that I felt were not as strong. First of all, I found it wild that Phoebe was being ousted by everyone without any kind of fight. She's the one that started the whole thing up again, she's got the passion, she's got the brains, she's got the glasses and the curls! Her mom says a grand total of NOTHING to defend her in Peck's office, and they all just accept that she can't be a Ghostbuster anymore. Yeah, they don't want to get sued, but it's just weird to me that they don't even seem like they feel that terrible that she got benched. Callie and Trevor are very callous about the whole thing. Only Gary seems like he gives a shit, and he's not even her dad. The way Phoebe's benching ended wasn't all that satisfying either. It would have been nice for the other three to maybe struggle a little without her, realize they need her to balance the team, and try to find a way to get her back. Winston was really the one that got Peck off their backs in the end, no thanks to anyone else (also, I'm pretty sure in that scene, someone in the crowd yells 'dickless' ๐).
Side note, I really don't like Callie's character that much. I think she's self-centered and doesn't seem to care about the kids' feelings unless the situation becomes dire. Maybe she does deep down, but mostly her attitude about everything stinks. Idk, I wouldn't care if she wasn't in the movie at all.
Anyway, back to the plot. I liked the idea of Phoebe's plotline. I wish they'd gone all the way and had her and Melody kiss, I really thought that was coming when she separated from her body. But I have an issue about that particular moment. The decision to suddenly put herself in the chamber like that seemed to come out of nowhere, at least I thought so. They made it like Melody was supposed to be the one tricking her into doing it, but she really never said anything to convince her. Phoebe just decided on her own to try it. I know she mentioned a couple of times wondering what it would feel like to be a ghost, but it wasn't a strong enough buildup to such a risky move. Honestly, when she asked Ray about him wanting to be a ghost, coupled with Winston saying Ray was going to get himself killed, I thought they were foreshadowing killing Ray (and thank God they didn't!).
They also hint at Phoebe specifically being the one that needs to be used but why? Anyone could have been tricked into the chamber and been controlled by Garaka for the chanting.
But moving on from that, the other issue I have is with the firemaster. He was a little too good at controling the fire after what, a couple of hours of practice? I think the character could still work, he could still be a quirky weird guy, but I think I would have made him more of a reluctant inheritor of his grandma's powers. Maybe he struggles with it at first and he figures he can sell the artifacts to Ray to get rid of the responsibility. Then later he can finally accept his fate to help beat Garaka when he starts believing in himself.
Those are the only major parts that I felt could have been tweaked. Besides that, I would have loved to see Slimer and Ray get a moment, just as a nod to their friendship in the show, but I guess they want to stick to one continuity. Of all the things they could have referenced from the show, though, it had to be the Junior GB ๐ It was just a throwaway line, but still, I don't want to remember they were a thing.
Tl;dr, the movie was good and there were a lot of parts I really enjoyed. For the parts that were weak, I'm confident there will be another in the future, so hopefully they'll keep improving.
Also, who the hell voted for Peck to be mayor? I bet he rigged the election.

Question time about our least favorite sim, Gael. If it's spoiler territory, ignore me. Was this Gael, watching Bryatt?
If it was, was he stalking them or was that a chance encounter? Did he think this was a vacay fling (when she moved in with Kaito for a week) or was he worried Brynn would stay?
Also, because I like to peer into your OCs brainsโฆ During Gaelโs Very Bad Day (with three scary men in his apartment) and Oscar saying (to Wyatt), โYou havenโt got the connections to get away with this shit anymoreโ give Gael a light bulb moment? Did Gael realize that Brynnโs past (and current choice in a partner) was a darker place than he ever imagined?
ewwwwwww who wants to talk about GAEL?! jkjk I DO!!! ๐คธโโ๏ธ
first of all, that's definitely Gael! t'was never supposed to be a secret but i suppose his intent was up to interpretation at the time.. now i can say that it wasn't particularly stalky/malicious, he just wondered where the hell Brynn had wandered off to and spotted her with Wyatt, he was a lil sus if y'all remember, asking if she'd given him her number but he was asking mostly in good humour tbf
i don't think he thought much abt it until Brynn decided she wanted to go back to Mt Komo.. at which point he definitely felt like smth was going on (or she WANTED smth to be going on) either way he wasn't too pleased abt it cos it jeopardised their lil agreement but he's a pussy n' didn't refuse to take her there again so joke's on him! i reckon he definitely felt Brynn slipping during that trip but "Kaito's" general vibe intimidated him even BEFORE he kicked his face in so he didn't say shit at the time.. then Brynn didn't say a word when they got home so he thought he was safe.. SIKE ๐คญ
hmmmmm Oscar said the shit abt connections to Wyatt pretty quiet like so idk if Gael would've fully heard him, and even if he did idk if his mind would make that leap ๐ค he deffo pissed his pants tho, assuming they're at least a little dodgy (i rlly think he's too naive to jump to mobster conclusions ngl lmao) i also think he'd probably be a bit more wary of Brynn if he ever saw her again LOL.. safe to say he stayed somewhere else that night n' never went back ๐
#ranswers#fib asks#ahhhh naive little gael#u don't kno how lucky u and ur neck really are#๐
#still glad y'all didn't really know whether to be worried abt gael or not#i mean.. he's a controlling tosser but he's a pussycat compared to a lotta ppl we've met in the past#lmaoo

Oh boy. I just got one question and I'm being dead ass serious. Not even joking. Is it mutual? Cause if so, I have major questions right now. He sure seems to think its mutual, cause once again he's saying he's back to those feelings and once again asking his friend to let him out of the Friendzone one and for all. Ooooohkay. The title alone was a jumpscare, a deliberate choice, now the lyrics. It all seems too easy to connect, but subtlety has also never been this man's thing, ever. Blunt more like it. Anyways, I'm way too into my overthinking today, to deal. I am gonna have to rewatch the video again.
He's more delulu than I am is more like it๐ฉ๐น๐น๐น๐น
He's out here singing friends to lovers while Jimin thinks they are more of a mystery loving on each other one day, being enemies the next ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Mutual bby boy join the circus ๐
1st off THAT MAN IS FFFFFFFFFFOOOOINE DUUUUUUUMMMMM whew
Like let's not lie he's a gorgeous human being ๐ฅต
Ladies and gays I get it ๐
No need to explain yourselves I get it๐คญ
Fantasize away๐
Also the song is ๐ฅ ๐ฅ ๐ฅ
It's exactly as it should be. its done what songs do- give us the tickles ๐คญ๐คญ๐คญ๐คญ๐คญ๐คญ
It's giving Olivia Her Jungkook and Ariana in one song
And I think the meaning is clear. Dude caught feelings for his friend and he wants to be taken out of the friendzone. Such a beautiful tale of friends to lovers fantasies
Which is what we were all thinking it was so another L to those delusional solos and antis who thought we were mad how does it feel to be a clown guys.
Friends don't say words that make Friends feel like more than just Friends- which words sir juseyo ๐ค
And sir what do you mean.... who is leading you on cos I know it's not Park Jimin๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Not gonna lie all my Vmin fantasies are coming to life
That emotional entanglement they had going on like two emo lesbians I knew one was bound to catch feelings and it was not going to be Jimin๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Jimin tried that shit with Jungkook and now Jungkook is stuck on him for life๐
Such potent magic.
Now of course it leaves room for speculation as to who this friend he is singing about is but the fact he has a few songs asking what are we? Are you my best friend? And Jimin has a responding song saying we are friends and soulmates and now he's here saying friends don't feel this way let's end the friendship and start something is a bit ๐
I can understand why they didn't want him to sing that song with Jimin the sus level would have been high๐๐๐๐
Imagine thinking he has a boyfriend who went away to ms with his other besties meanwhile dudes just pining here over his best friend ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
The jokes write themselves ๐คฃ

How do you think the relationship between canon Light and fem!L would develop?
It's an interesting thought!
So I only really like thinking about them in a shippy sense if they're being gay together, so I'm going to mention that immediately as a disclaimer that it is affecting my takes on this before I answer. ๐ I WOULD find it interesting to see the combo of male!Light and female!L mostly only in how Light would maybe not be able to trick her with his usual seduction tactics and whatnot that he typically uses on girls? L just would basically blatantly notice Light's flirting antics and call them out / tell him it's sus or stupid and never going to work on her. In my head L's imperviousness to his usual charms might not be outright explained, as many things with L are not outright explained, but it would def give the vibes of "she's clearly not even into guys, bro..." I think Light would assume she is straight/more easily manipulated as a woman (and even if she WAS straight, I think she'd just keep that to herself because she thinks her preferences are none of his business either way). I think he'd be annoyed/insulted by her rejecting him and calling him out on his bullshit, but then he would also realize he miscalculated and have to rethink how to approach getting to know her better (after his initial sulking he would probably inwardly be like, "huh very interesting, I've never met a girl who that didn't work on before...") He'd maybe switch just to trying to befriend her more platonically? I think he's smart enough and good enough with people to realize she would probably prefer he just treat her like a peer and not make a huge deal about her gender than to be constantly aware of it and mentioning it and treating her like she is very different than he is or whatever as well - he would think she wouldn't like anyone acting like she is inferior, but also probably that she wouldn't want him to treat her extra nice or like she's made of glass or super astounding for being smart AND a girl, or whatever else. Not sure if meeting fem!L might actually cause Light to rethink some of the casual sexism he has in canon in some of his attitudes and thoughts? But I feel like even if he DID come to respect fem!L as an equal he might also end up just thinking of her as the "only woman he respects" or something along those lines, not that he now respects all women as equals across the board...
#none of the DN characters actually 'learn valuable lessons' too often hahaha#and i kinda like that about it tbh#it's like yeah they get taught lessons but then they usually either reach the wrong conclusion or die from them lol#so i can't really see light becoming a 'feminist king' even if that was the way it went instead#light yagami#ask#fem!l#genderbend#fem!lawlight#p

Omg I love this side of Kyungsoo ๐ It was 2am in Korea when he shared this story. And maybe he's a lil tipsy ! I love him for celebrating his Freedom and departure savagely. He slayed!
SAVAGE KYUNGSOO SUPREMACY!
Ps: To dumb Akgaes Dandanies whom I hate so much, don't Mistake Ksoo's dislike to SM to him hating his members!!!
Stop hating on the members! He clearly loves them and doesn't blame or condemn them for anything?! the fuck is wrong with y'all bashing them like They have any link to his beef with SM?? The X app is full of Dandans being psycho haters attacking Exo and ExoL like hungry wolves. The other members are also going through their own shit and sabotage from SM and you saw it with Chanyeol and CBX and Jongdae! Why are you only saying SM was bad to Ksoo only and that they were favoring other members over him??! Bitch where?
Sehun sang like 15 lines in all Exo songs since debut, has no solo album 0 reality shows or Variety attendance, 0 Sechan promotions from SM.
Jongdae was being canceled, threatened with Death him and his daughters and went on hiatus for 3years because he decided to have a family and SM didn't even support him or sued the fans who boycotted him or sent him death threats.
Suho, who works so hard on his albums and musicals, and has 0 promotions from SM, no appreciation, 0 variety/reality shows attendance!
Chanyeol who paid with his own money to print and promote his albums with Sehun ?? He said he wants a unit and make an album with Sehun he said he has the lyrics and composed everything himself he just needed the funds for making MVs and printing albums and promoting his debut and comebacks, SM said "Your unit your problem"??? Or the fact that SM was the one that spread that 10 gfs scandal and ruined him few months before going to military because he was being a Rebel! And there's notbing worse than going on military hiatus with a scandal , because once your back people will forget you by choice and with time also! And SM didn't even take any legal measures to protect him like they did with all their idols in that shithole pink company!
Or Jongin and Baekhyun &, Ksoo whom are called the money makers of SM who got overworked by SM, with no rest They put them in show after show after show after project after schedule, going from filming directly to another filming with no rest or a proper meal or sleep, and make them debut 4 times in units and a whole other band (SuperM)?
And Please don't get me started on Minseok/Xiumin, that Man as if he doesn't even exist to SM. He's the most underrated most mistreated member of all times NOT ONLY from his company but sadly from HIS OWN FANS who give 0 fucks about what he does, his albums and projects, I dare anyone here to tell me three songs from his album. And because he's not supported by his own fans that SM refuses to "Waste money" on him promoting him which is sad it's how business works, if you can't produce you can't consume. Like that he'll never have anything even if he begs for it, SM would say "No! We can't give you an album because have you seen your last album it barely got us any revenue 0 profit sorry" . In companies if you can't sell you can't ask for solo projects! Not even a birthday party for your own self with your fans. And if you wanna promote yourself you gotta pay for your Promotions like how Sechan did with their albums.
Sad but facts.
Anyway Ksoo has cute Toes UWU

Ok so here's my success story
Joined loablr 1ยฝ yrs ago life was normal for me and I was comfortable in my circumstances so I never really applied it, I was always scared if changes so i just read posts after posts from a+p to void to states i overconsumed so much that I forgot what it truly was. I never truly persisted and i didn't even believed it. But then last April my worst luck hit and life started going downhill in every area i could imagine. I failed all my exams, gained weight and started hating myself, my friends left me I was completely outcasted and the worst part i had to keep all my despair to myself because I wasn't allowed to vent. My father lost his job and became super short tempered he'll scold me for everything and for my mum everyday the disappointment I saw in her eyes broke me. I was still skeptical of the law but this time I had nothing to lose...
So first i wanted to manifest my life without void because i had saw the void obsession and i knew if I would start now i too would be omw obsessed with it. So i decided to start loa from the basis.I first read Pink's doubt post i read it till i convinced myself that loa and void all were real. After that I compiled your how i manifest, su's loa basics post,Rosie's void doc and Raven's revision post. I then logge off Tumblr. I made a routine for myself taking inspiration from your post and Rosie's doc. And Raven's revision post made me confident that nothing was impossible.
Every morning I would affirm for void concept and self concept i didn't wanted to get obsessed with anything and struggle more by putting them on pedestal. When I had nothing to do I would vaunt while listening to baejin and Roy's subs. I logged off from every social platform and just completely focused on myself.It's like superrrrr hot here in summers so I would usually take naps in afternoons and that time I used for SATS. And at night I would do breathing exercises and would affirm to wake up in void state.
After 12-13 days i felt such a huge shift in my life like my dad started being super nice to me and mum was actually motivating me and taking me out on walks to cheer me up just like i visualised in SATS!!! This boosted my confidence so muchhhhh!!!! I was sure about my abilities my self concept was also amazing and I was manifesting small things here and there but i hadn't entered void till now. So i read Pink's post again and then Rosie's void doc this relaxed me and motivated me to keep persisting in my new story and the next night i entered the void state!!!!! It was so relaxing and calming and I felt so safe. It was just like how i thought it would be baby blue with sparkling stars everywhere!!!!! I felt so light and happy.... After staying for some time i affirmed for my desires stayed there for some more time and then came out.
Now the fun stuff i manifested
Firstโ i woke up in my room!!!!! But in my old story i shared my room with my parents but here i was in my room that looked exactly like my Pinterest boards!!! Honestly I just laid there for 15-20 min i don't know why but i was crying??๐
๐
I still don't understand it maybe because i always wanted a space for my own where i could just release all my emotions and always being surrounded by people i just learnt to swallow my emotions and remain stoic but on this day i just released myself i was so proud of me for sticking through and becoming the success story i wanted to be.okay...... not going too indepth in other things now otherwise it'll become a novel now๐
2) I was my desired weight and had my complete desired appearance. I felt so confident on seeing myself in the mirror.
3) My dad getting his job back and now having a big big promotion for the relentless work he did for the past 20 yrs.He is the senior of the guy who fired him on false charges hihi guess who got fired next๐๐
4) Passing all my exams with A+ and getting into my desired school it's a private school only for rich kids i always wanted to attend one so now I am attending it๐
5) Having amazing IQ and photograpjic memory.
6) We have an amazing house of ours now it is so big and beautiful ๐ป๐ป๐ป it also has a big lawn outside.
7) Being the popular girl of my school those friends who ditched me are now begging to be in my group but you see I'm the popular girl and not the mean girl so they are not welcomed here ๐๐ค๐
I manifested many many more desires and now I'm so so happy everyday is a blessing for me. And I just want to thank you and all the bloggers here you all are a ray of hope in our lives. I love you so much and will always remain thankful to you,Rosie, Pink,Sue and every other blogger who helped me. You all are amazing people and you all deserve the world.
Now I'm gonna deactivate from Tumblr so thank you again. We may don't know each other but you all have become an integral part of my life. I hope Tumblr good days return again and it get flooded with success stories again.
Nd all the bloggers here remain safe and happy and manifest positivity and goodness in their lives.
Sorry it became very long๐
but i hope Konnie you stay happy and healthy always and your blog is just filled with positivity you don't deserve these stupid haters. Thank you again for helping me...
Bye Konnie!
Anon I am so happy for you! Iโm so happy I helped you, Iโm so happy that you got everything you wanted love! Enjoy your life honey! ๐๐๐

I had never read that article before considering that before she started dating Austin I didn't even know who Kaia Gerber was and I never cared about Jacob Elordi (I don't like him either as an actor or as a person). The article demonstrates many things: 1) It is useless to rejoice when it seems that a relationship is going well, because a couple can break up shortly afterwards. 2) We can see how much Kaia does not take her acting career seriously. Not because she doesn't really want to be an actress, but she seemed to admire Jacob for his work and experience because "he's gone to drama school", so why doesn't she go to drama school too? 3) "So I'm like, 'Oh, I'm definitely going to be using you as a resource.'" Sure, she probably meant for help preparing for the role (even though he wasn't much help because she was totally terrible in AHS), but the words she used still make it clear what kind of person she is. "Using" someone is wrong but for her it's normal.
Girl preach!! ๐
You are so spot on with this comment above. ๐ฏ
I never really was a fan of Jacob either, but I kind of followed him and Kaia's dating relationship a little bit mainly because I'm a fan of Zendaya, and I always felt that the way that Jacob jumped from Zendaya to Kaia was a bit sus (but that's a topic for another day ๐).
Anyway, so I have watched how this girl operates for years, even before she started dating Austin.
You are so right about not being overly invested in celebrity relationships. Like we established yesterday, these relationships are usually short-lived, some of them not even genuine (look at Benana for reference lol ๐), and we also never know what's going on bts. Even long-term celebrity romances can fizzle out and die unexpectedly one day. Look at Austin and Vanessa! I just knew they'd get married one day. ๐ Nope! So yea, it's useless to idolize these relationships imo.
Girl, Kaia definitely does not take her acting seriously. She just leeches info off of her actor boyfriends, and uses her connections to further her career. ๐ If she had been taking acting lessons, we would be seeing a huge improvement since AHS, but we haven't. It annoys me sm that people like her can continue to suck at her job, and still get promoted with more roles, whereas us regular folk would end up getting fired from our jobs if we're continuing to be THAT bad after all these years. ๐
Bingo!

there's a scene in bon voyage s3 e6, when the members were eating and jhope mentioned that tae and jk were sleeping upside down and hugging each other's legs, i found jimin's reaction to the info kinda sus. the scene was overall weird, jimin was sitting down when hobi finished talking, with no apparent indication of standing up, and suddenly they show jimin's reaction and he's like "wae (what)!?!?" but he's standing up, and then another cut to hobi confirming the story, then the camera goes back to jimin who is seated again and says "that's weird". do you think they edited some of the conversation out?
Anon, this moment makes me ๐๐คญ
Sorry for making you wait. Let's go go go!
(Had too much fun with this one, it is quite long >.<)
Here is a clip of the moment
vimeo
Cr. Full video here
Let's Quentin Tarantino this. Do I think this was a sus moment? Do I think some of the convo was edited out?
Yes, to both. ๐
JM going from sitting to standing up without us seeing it happen didn't stick out to me too much only because in content like this (Not just BTS content), editors tend to show multiple viewpoints of a moment and I'm guessing JM stood up when we saw the close up of Hobi explaining what he saw. You can also see Hobi's eyes are looking upwards as he's talking.
What gets me tho is JM's initial reaction to Hobi, going eh?! And then needing to clarify what he just heard lol.
Then we cut to JM saying "์ ๊ทธ๋" with that face and that tone.
Side note: I'm not Korean and I'm not fluent in Korean. I have been learning for a while. I'm somewhere between beginner & intermediate and understand that context, tone, and the words used, explain so much when it comes to the Korean language. That's why I wanted to highlight this next part.
Let's talk about the sub-titles here for a moment.
The translator decided to go with "What's wrong?"
This is correct, but it's not the only meaning of those words. "์ ๊ทธ๋" can also mean the following depending on the tone, context, and intonation (rise & fall of voice): "Why is it like that?" "Why are you like that?" "Why are you acting like that?" "What's going on?"
This is a great post about how "์ ๊ทธ๋" can be used.
IMO, JM's tone sounded like it had a bit of a bite behind it. There was no rise in his voice at the end of the words to sound like a curious question. And his face was a little more on the serious side. Again IMO, something like "Why were you like that?" seems more accurate.
He gave off a WTF? vibe.
Back to the question about edited-out parts
I think it's hard to say if anything was edited out right before JM said ์ ๊ทธ๋ but I definitely think the reaction to what JM said was edited out.
There could have been more conversation, but I honestly think there was probably awkward silence after him saying that. ๐คฃ
Because JK & V were both awfully quiet while Hobi was explaining, other than initially asking "Did we?" "Who did it?" There was no laughing, no smiling.
To me, it felt like JK & V were starting to sense JM's unrest with the whole thing and so they decided to stay quiet since an upset Mimi is not what you want to deal with. An upset Mimi is a feisty Mimi.
Look, we always talk about JK being the possessive one but I just think JK is louder about it than JM. There are 2 possessive men in the Jeon-Park Household.
While JK does do some type of skinship with all members, I do think JM enjoys his boyfie privileges. That there are just some things JK doesn't do often with others. And it was probably weird to hear that they were hugging each other's feet especially when JK is sensitive to smells ๐คฃ
Before I go, I have to bring up our president Hobi.
Like, Hobi.
Why do I feel like you're snitching on them to Mimi??
๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
That's the funniest part about this moment to me. After bringing up the situation to JK & V, Hobi is literally telling this story to JM.
I love Hobi. I miss him!
Thank you for the ask Anon. ๐๐
For you, Happy Jikook inc...

Sweetheart !!!!
I was so so excited when I found out that you a Midnight at Pera Palace fan !
I would love to know your thoughts on the episodes you have watched so far.
Personally, the only thing that bumped me out was Halit knowing Esras name without her telling him!
Hopefully it gets renewed for a third season ! And hopefully it will not take them 2 years ๐
hiiiii ๐ธ๐
i sadly got to it rather late? i only watched season 1 back in mid-august! half sad i didn't find it sooner, half glad because i only had to wait like a month for s2 ๐ณ
i loved!!!! episode 1. the opening with halit arriving to 2022 RIGHT on the night esra first stepped on the pera palace? exquisite, divine 10/10!!! episode 2 was eshal heaven. the PAINTING???? he's so extra i just can't with him i swear to godd. episode 3 and 4 are building on the suspense (wink hitchcock wink) as well as so much more eshal, but also some angst because we're all doubting halit a bit, aren't we? i don't want to, but the show is making me sus as hell. and the ending to episode 4 was crazy, it made me so sad
i cannot even fathom the roller coaster of emotions i will have to endure in the remaining four episodes ngl
but you're right!!!!! it's been bugging me that suddenly halit knows esra's name when she never told him!! is it a plothole, did dimitri tell him, is it in a future/past upcoming scene??? i just wish they'd show us the moment he learned it bc it feels like a monumental thing for them??? i feel like???
ANYWAY!!! i yapped a lot. but yes please netflix tรผrkiye give us season 3 i beg

All I know is they had the perfect window and opportunity to end everything officially back in September. All the wedding articles and what not, yet no confirmation for WEEKS! Then Mr. Chris Evans got on stage and confirmed with his big mouth and now itโs likeโฆ..dude are you just a lazy spouse and decided to get married just to say youโre married (which would explain non of his past relationships working out) or โฆ..you lied about being married, you are in some Hollywood mess and regardless of anything, none of any of this makes a lick of sense.
Now people are trying to claim fish ๐ is pregnant and already had the baby, like wtf?! ๐
Also I have a theory that the Hollywood pr bs might be true due to other celeb couples not making sense or people randomly getting together.
Lu pita and Joshua Jackson are apparently a couple after both of them separated recently (he and his ex wife Jodie divorced and Lupita and the guy she was seeing parted ways) now donโt get me wrong life does happen and whatever but the timing is suspicious. Like they could be friends doing pr for whatever reason since they have no current work I assume.
Next is Taylor and Travisโฆ..they are bringing in the cash and people are loving it, they are doing a great job selling this because I really donโt know if itโs pr or legit. ๐
Chris and ๐โฆโฆno explanation. Makes no sense either way you look at it, except Chris is being forced to do everything but thatโs scary if Hollywood could force someone to fake a marriage. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ other option is he purposely married a racist clout chasing bitch.
I'm going to say this right now, and since we're on the verge of picking teams, I'm on Team Albitch is or wasn't fucking pregnant!
Now, that that is out of the way. Let's tackle the stuff about Hollywood PR.
Yeah, it's messy. Like "how TF does this happen?!" messy. Chris seriously half confirmed it, he didn't say her name, which again ๐ฉ, but he did open his big mouth and said it ๐ซฃ
Their timeline doesn't even add up! It seriously never has, and never will. No matter how they shape it, THIS SHIT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!!!
And yes, Imma go with Hollywood or his team forced this. Because again, Chris is known to be against Racists and wants to be with the person he loves. Albitch ain't it.
At least with Taylor and Travis, if it's PR, it's working, and makes sense. The "Travis DMed Taylor, about going to one of his games, and she did because he's cute." And "he was a fan that became the best boyfriend" and it works!
And Taylor isn't jeopardizing her career or her success, even though it was revealed that Travis has said some sus things online too.
I'm one of those people sleeping on Lupita, Joshua and Jodie drama. But damn that sounds way too weird and out of the blue.
All of this is just making me see what people mean by Hollyweird ๐

MY THOUGHTS ON THE MANDALORIAN - Chapter 23: "The Spies"
Right now, I have the mighty need to pay Jon Favreau a visit. One which would be not beneficial for his overall health. I heard vague rumors that this episode was going to be a rough one to watch, but I avoided catching any details. I don't know if knowing what was going to happen would've made it easier to bear, but dang! It hit me hard.
Loosing yet another of my beloved characters in a short time has me reeling. How dare you, Favreau? HOW.DARE.YOU?! It started very funny, but that ending destroyed me.
This is going to be a long one (testament to how great the episode was). So read at your risk.
Hmm, this imperial chick again. What are you up to now? who are you meeting with? I don't think Gideon is bold enough to be on Coruscant, butโฆ Oh, a probe droid! ok, through a holo, yeah that makes sense. And there he is! Ugh! Poodoo is going to hit the fan now.
Woah! where are you hiding, Gideon? This is cool and terrifying.
A meeting! Do I know anyone there?
Oof! Imperial using the same tactic that the rebellion used at the beginning of appearing nothing more than an unorganized group of remnants is like YIKES! ๐ฌ๐ฌ Dare I say whose idea that was? Perhaps from a blue grand admiral well-known for studying his enemy and using their tactics against them?
HUX?! PALLAEON?!! OMG OMG OMG!!
LOL Shadow Council? Couldn't you find something more original. Just sayin'
Of course, Gideon is trying to take power from Thrawn while he's not around. Gideon, let me tell you right now that you'll lose, my friend, and you won't know what hit you once Thrawn put you in your place. You think you're a step ahead of everyone, but he's 10 steps ahead of you!
Ok, here we go! will Mandos behave?
Nicely done, Armorer. Big mama reminding younglings to be in their best behavior ๐
From Coruscant? How did you get that Karga, hmm? (Side note: this seemed sus to me since the first time I was watching the episode, but even more after I was done)
IG-11!!!
Oh, poor Grogu ๐ he got scared as soon as saw the droid. Not that I blame him because of how things went last time.
IG-12? lol A mecha, nice solution.
Now, Grogu is happy!
๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ bad baby! no squeezie! ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Greef Karga is grandpa โข spoiling Grogu rotten and Din can already see that this will bring more chaos to his life. He can feel it! ๐
OMG!!! Grogu can communicate now. His first word!! Sortaโฆ and it's so appropriate that it's "No". Grogu officially entered the terrible twos! Din is doomed now ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ This is so hilarious!!
๐คฃ๐คฃ Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Din makes the example, of course! and he volunteers Grogu too?! Are you insane? Actively taking your son into dangerous situations is not good parenting, Din. JFYTK! But I love that Grogu stands immediately.
Koska and Axe, too. I guess that was obvious. YES!! Good for you, Paz! (Side note: After watching the episode, I no longer think it was a good decision, Paz. You should've stayed ๐ญ๐ญ)
Ooh! The armorer is going too? With the vague rumors I heard that this episode will end not in the happiest terms, I have the feeling she might die ๐ฉ I don't want that! (SN: yeah, my spidey senses weren't that off, after all. Somebody died ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ)
Ooh! the heartbreak of everyone watching Mandalore's surface from the Gauntlet ๐
What's that? Oh! More Mandalorians? On the planet? Why do I think this is sus? I mean, they could be working with Gideon to lead them to a trap (UGH! sometimes I hate being right! or maybe not, but it's really sus that these guys appeared and let the party just to where Gideon's base is? like ๐)
OH!!! Bo-Katan is telling what happened finally!!! (I've admitted before that I was never her biggest fan, but I feel for her. Obviously, Gideon didn't give her much of a choice and took advantage of that. And she has changed a lot since then and even before that. Her wise words come from painful experiences)
I like that Bo is admitting her mistakes out loud. Not spelled them out entirely, but enough for me to be appeased. One of my criticisms about her arc is the vague mention of her past mistakes. I don't mean it as to forever punish her for them, but to show how far she's come all these years. Because casual fans who haven't watched TCW or Rebels don't know she was Death Watch. And to me, that's an important thing.
And I ADORED Din's speech!!! And it's the confirmation of what I thought Bo's arc was about. It's about showing others and herself that what has value in a leader is not the blood or ancestry, nor possessing a magic weapon, but who you are as a person. Like Din says: honor, loyalty, character. And his vow brought tears to my eyes ๐ฅน
So the Armorer is not going? ๐ค So maybe she doesn't die, but if she doesn't, who will? ๐ฃ
and these guys know exactly what they're going ๐คจ Yeah, definitely sus. Something is going to happen and I'll hate it!
๐คฃ Paz and Axe playing together? Danger! Danger stranger! This is going to end badlyโฆ see what I mean! I'm not even surprised that Paz is the one issuing the challenge. And of course, Axe won't back down.
it should be embarrassing for both Paz and Axe that a child has to intervene and stop them. But I'm wheezing! it's so funny.
What do you mean, Din?! You've taught him that too!! from the top of my head, I can remember not less than 6 times that you've tried (at least) to deescalate, if not stop altogether, a fight. I mean, you just were going to do exactly that!!!
Oh my gaaaaawwwddddd! Din and Grogu nodding to each other!!! OMG that's so cuuuuuuute!!! ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
Ok, I'm getting nervous, because I know something big is going to happen and I don't know what!
Wait! What the hell is that?!! Is that the Mythosaur?! (On the second viewing, I paused it to check carefully, and no, it's not the mythosaur. I don't see the tusks, so it has to be another nameless monster)
awww uncle Paz and Axe saving Grogu together ๐ฅฐ
๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ Din "the galaxy's best dad" Djarin checking on his kid (But my dear, this is exactly why you shouldn't have brought him!)
Oh, dank ferrik! Imperial commandos?! Ugh! Stormtroopers, lots of them ๐
oh fuck! no no no no!!! That looks too imperial!!! There's a post there!!! AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I knew it!!! It's a trap!
Nooooo!!! stop it!!! Turn around!!!! TURN AROUND!!!!
I TOLD YOU!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
DIN!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!
I KNEW IT!!!!! I've been saying since episode 2 that dark troopers were made of beskar alloy!! Somebody listened to me? probably not many.
Oh fuck fuck fuck fuck!!! No, DIIIIIIIIIIIN!!!!
yeah, that would've been nice, Bo. Problems for many people would've gone poof if Gideon were dead!
yeah, like that trick would work twice! Pfft! Please Gideon, come up with something better
omg omg omg!!!! nooooooo Paz!!!!! NOOOO!!!!!! NO that's NOT the way!!! noooooooo!!!๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
Afterthoughts
I'm devastated because Paz is my second favorite mandalorian after Din, and I can believe that I've lost 2 characters very dear to me in as many weeks! Why they want to ruin my comfort shows with this level of angst?!! Gosh, it hurts!! All I can think about is in the poor Ragnar that's now fatherless ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐๐๐ (Does he have a mom, or he just turned into a foundling for a second time in his short life?)
There's something else that was left without a clear answer. Who the spies are? Because, yeah, Elia Kane is A spy, but the title is in plural, so who is or are the other(s)? I have several suspects.
The first ones, of course, are the "survivors" in Mandalore. They seemed to be in the right place and right time and knew exactly how to go where the others needed to go. Suspiciously convenient, too convenient.
But maybe, they're not the spies, if Jon Favreau chose to be a little less obvious. If not them, then it could be the armorer. I mean, everyone is suspecting her. She has always been pretty sketchy and super mysterious and manipulative, and this season she has had all of us going back and forth with her inconsistencies. And the fact that she went back to the ship in orbit instead of going to the main forge, a place she spoke with such a fondness just before they were led to a trap? Sus, very sus!
However, after thinking all day, there's one thing that makes a case in her favor. If she is the other spy and is working with Gideon, why was he so surprised, like genuinely shocked, that the children of the watch and the nite owls were teaming up? Why she didn't tell him? It could be that she's playing both sides; it's a big possibility, but maybe she's not the spy. She's just the distraction from the real thing.
(Also, there's like a sort of plot armor with her, I think. Someone really big badass needs to be in the fleet when the bombers attack to lead the counterattack, since everyone else (known BAMFs, I mean, not extras) is on the planet's surface, Jon F gave her the job. Maybe?)
My third suspect, and I can't believe I'm going to say this, but what if Greef Karga is the spy? I know he has changed a lot since season 1, and he's a good friend to Din and a sorta grandpa to Grogu, but that thing with the bottle from Coruscant raised all my red flags instantly. At first, I didn't know why, but once I watched the whole episode, it went from a silly thing to a big red flag! I hope I'm dead wrong and this is just my hyperactive imagination playing tricks on me. But now under this light, even the gesture of welcoming all the Mandalorians on Nevarro could take a new nefarious meaning.
If you think my list of suspects is done, you're mistaken. I have 2 more. Axe Woves and Koska Reeves. Him, because his ego might be still wounded that Bo kicked his ass last week. I mean, it's a lame excuse, but he wouldn't be the first to do something like this for that reason. And she because there's nothing suspicious about her. It's crazy, I know, but the best traitor/spy/etc. in any story is who no one expects to be. Even if she had a nice moment with Bo sharing a silent conversation before Bo said how she surrendered to Gideon, and Koska was the first of the nite owls to volunteer to go to Mandalore, she still could be the spy. And it'd hurt Bo greatly that either of them betrays her to Gideon.
In conclusion, I suspect of everyone except for Din, Grogu, Paz (RIP), and Bo. Everybody else is a person of interest in my book. And there's a whole week of waiting to know the answer to this and to the fate of Din! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! How will I stay sane till then?
I warned you that this one would be long, and I think I've spoken enough, so I'll shut up now. See you next week!
