#i just feel like complaining a bit lol

[thesingingrevolution]

i feel like gens should be defined retroactively and yes it is a bit sus to promote this because it’s obviously easier to compete against other 5th gen groups when there’s like three of them lol

people were saying this last year too, and there has been backlash stemming from these current conversations so i don’t think “5th gen kpop” is gonna catch on right now. i do think 5th gen will start over the near-ish future (gens are usually ~7 years, the average span of a kpop contract) since we’re 5 years into 4th gen. but i think it’s still too soon to say anything, and like i said we won’t “realize” it until it’s gone by. like i don’t think people woke up on the day the boyz debuted and said “wow this is 4th gen now.” maybe i’m wrong but i don’t think that’s how it happened ?

i also think generations usually have certain things in common that make groups a “component” of the generation, which is why sometimes people will be like “what isn’t x group a 3rd gen groups?” when they debuted in early 2018 or so

it’s hard to explain but i still think it’s two early for 5th gen. literally three of the groups listed haven’t even debuted and the other one debuted like a month ago. it’s wayyyy too early. but we will see !

I am going to again mention that Hikaru No Go cdrama adaptation Qi Hun is on youtube for free (iqiyi), really really good, and if you ever shipped the two rivals to partners then the cdrama decides well They Do Too and cranks it to Bad Buddy childhood rivals to desperately longing for each other to domestic and professional partners levels. (I'm not kidding, to spoil the ending out of context: they move in together with one bed, play partner go for future career, and end the show together happy). And yes, our ghost friend still absolutely decimated me emotionally. <3 ;-;

Anyway I just. While it's absolutely amazing as a show on simply the merit of quality, pacing, good storyline, solid story it's based on And solid adaptation that kept things true while putting it's own touches? It's also really really heartfelt if you like childhood enemies/friends to partners stories. And it feels as bl as Guardian or Word of Honor did, easily (so clearly shippers helped make the show lol).

Here's where to watch!

I promise I don’t mean it in a hater way but I just never really understood the “MC is basically a therapist to the overblot characters” memes when applied to twst bc I feel like Yuu is barely involved in the overblot breakdowns compared to the other characters (aside from the meta that we r I guess helping guide the teamwork for battles / how things go in the manga/novels)

update: if you like this art, please go check out this fic that @chessala wrote for it ╥⁠﹏⁠╥

update cont: this is the first time someone's ever written something for art that I've made, and I'm still so happy and touched beyond words that she wrote this. she was even kind enough to share the initial draft with me and asked for feedback and even worked in little suggestions i had for expanding on different parts of the writing, which was so fun and collaborative and I haven't gotten to do something like that in ages. I'm so overwhelmed (in a good way) and it feels like getting to beam the full mental vision of the scenario i had in my brain while working on this piece into the mind of anyone who reads it; ;

i know these close up crops are a bit silly but well. i did my best lol... the full version is up on my alt twitter linked in my pinned post ♡

please also observe the little 🐰 logo.... it is silly & crucial....

Finally got around to watching ep 11 (´；ω；｀)

I know people are upset about ER DLC lore stuff, but tbh I am having the time of my life playing this right now.

[bestialitybestiary]

Like, you guys know I'm a steter enjoyer, but I was thinking, since, if we consider intended ages of the characters, Stiles would be just a baby. Baby boy. (he's 21 in s1 irl) and shipping him with 30yo or 25yo, whatever age Peter was supposed to be, would just look and be yikes. So if we look at them more realistically, I think it'd be nice, if Peter saw Stiles as a younger version of him or just liked him and so became some kind of guardian to him. Like an uncle or something. Because Stiles was on his own most of his life, or at least had to grow up way faster (I know Melissa probably helped a lot, but she doesn't live with him and works a lot herself) + Peter lost his family and them becoming something of a family would be nice.

NOT GONNA LIE i had to reread the most recent case multiple times because i simply could not understand what this crypto finance bro was doing but Uhhhh rip my man at least it wasn’t mr bonzo that got you (hopefully)

when people complain about getting like, a 98% grade on something because it was "so close to perfect" its like. i understand what you're saying on a technical level. but that is a line of thought so far away from my experiences and ways of thinking that i do feel like im from another planet. 100% isnt even a real number to me

[bluehairedspidey]

Ur a curly enjoyer and thats so based. I still havent played mouthwashing but i like the look of him

his design is absolutely one of the main reasons i decided to look into the game its so good, i havent played it yet either (just watched a play through) but im thinking about it tbh 👀

I frequently feel completely isolated no matter how much I talk to people. So that's fun

[martyrbat]

im still not over that video of the fat men in swimsuits dancing and partying and a cishet woman making an addition to the post saying how they looked friend shaped and like theyre safe and give good hugs like. girl can you take your fatphobia and infantilization someplace else some of us are horny !!!!

Reading ur tags about aizawa being kind of a jerk makes me think like, I hope it's some kinda twist that he's just repressing his feelings and lashing out with anger/resentment/being a jerk because he didn't use any outlets for dealing with his friends deaths

Cuz it's true his vibe changed, I just hope it's for a reason

And doing something like that^^ wouldn't justify it, but it would make it feel realistic imo

Mans is emotionally constipated and has gone through a lot of trauma, so though it doesn't surprise me exactly that he's being a jerk, I hope there's a breaking point or something

Yeah, I mean, that maybe is it, since it happened around the shirakurogiri arc, but I honestly don't know if Horikoshi thinks that deeply about his characters.

I will be happy if it's eventually addressed and he can be a good character again, but I kinda doubt it will? It's not him as a character I have a problem with it's the writing it just feels . bad.

I also don't know if Midnight's death will actually ever be addressed in any meaningful capacity. There was no reason for her to die except for a moment of shock value.

My solution for all of this is make the Loudspeaker AU canon.

Every now and then I remember the times I would mention to my flatmate that I was thinking of buying myself something reasonably expensive (that I had been eyeing up for months and had budgeted for) and she'd tell me that I shouldn't spend that much money on something I didn't need and it would be stupid etc etc while she regularly impulse bought things that cost at least as much and she would use once (while complaining that she was under a lot of financial stress and couldn't afford <$3/week for 2 months for a rental washing machine when ours broke). She is... perhaps not my first call for financial advice
