hey Rika! How do you feel about the Shownu ad now?
i'm still like ughhh but i'm pretty sure they saw all the backlash behind it because they did the bare minimum to promote it (like one monchannel episode and maybe 1 or 2 mentions from shownu) like usually if they do promos that big they wouldn't shut up about it
it's still disappointing that they didnt address our concerns as fans and i definitely pulled back from consuming mx content because of that. not too sure i'd be willing to spend the money i used to as well on them, like aside from partnering with a brand funding a genocide, they basically ignored us and our concerns. like why promote to international fans if you're just going to ignore them??
#sorry this turned into an essay zdskfjd but thanks for asking#i was also really tempted to @ eshy like i was that annoyed#rika.replies

idk what it is, but I really hate how every time I get back into a show I liked when I was younger, I unfortunately hear that one of the people playing a character I like did something horrid 😭 it's expected at this point, which is why I usually don't look up anything about actors or singers anymore but it still usually ends up getting talked about in fandom stuff and it's honestly so exhausting. why can't people be decent human beings? is it really THAT hard to do??
me finding out how shitty vic mignogna is omg im with you 😭😔 at this point i can only trust the guys from blues clues and the wiggles. like they have not let me down

is it just me or does wonho look a bit different? Is it the hairstyle?
i think it's the hair yeah and tbh i think its also that he slimmed down a little bit from when he was actively promoting before and it shows in his face

ohh how was the laser experience ??
OOOOO ok under the cut bc i wanna give a good breakdown
1. price
idk how much it costs where y'all are from but here its super expensive, so i waited until the place i wanted to get it from had their annual sale. i got 12 sessions for the underarms, brazilian and full legs for 1000 NZD (normally 2000 NZD so i got 50% off)
also the laser place i went to kinda scammed me and said i had to buy this tube of after care cream for like 60 bucks... you don't need to, don't make the same mistake i did....vaseline is fine as long as you don't have any allergies or sensitivities to it
2. the experience
so my first few sessions were a little awkard bc i didnt know what to expect. they essentially made me strip down to my bra. for the first 6 sessions, the pain wasn't too bad, just some light stinging where my skin was more sensitive (like around my ankles, knees and brazilian). but hoooo boy by my 7th session, they turned the settings up and i was physically flinching and sometimes yelping - they would ask if i was ok to continue and i would say yes, but dont be scared to speak up if you wanna take a break!!!!
3. the outcome
they say laser works best if your hair is dark compared to your skin.. so if you have lighter hair and/or darker skin, it might not work as well on you. after the 3rd session, i really started to notice the difference. a few months after i finished my last session, i had minimal and slow regrowth. a few months ago, i bought an ipl machine myself, so now that there's minimal work, i just do it myself at home. i just do my underarms, brazilian and my knees since those are the places that still show some regrowth. i haven't done ANY hair removal on my legs in more than a year. same stuff applies - shave before you do it, moisturizer on after, and avoid showering/sweating/swimming for 24 hours after!!
#hope this helps!!#also really do your research where you get your laser treatments done#if you want to save money i suggest buying your own ipl machine and doing it at home#it is a lot more work but definitely a lot cheaper#rika.replies

for the anon talking about HS; i have HS as well. if you smoke tobacco, try to quit it. nicotine makes HS worse. some groups of food such as dairy and gluten escalates it too, so you might want to follow a more "mediterranean" diet. + laser treatment really does wonders. if you go to a dermatologist, they will give you antibiotics and roll-on-style acne solutions, both of which help to reduce it as well. it is a condition that sometimes escalates and sometimes declines, and the best thing you can do is to identify the contributing factors (with the help of a dermatologist) and minimise them. there is nothing to be ashamed of <3
thank you!!! and 100% agree with the ending sentiment, it is nothing to be ashamed of

So when were you going to tell us that you‘re actually Shownu’s understudy in the musical and that’s why you took up violin?
oh im sorry i forgot to tell you that 10 months ago, shownu came to me in a vision saying "you have to start learning to play the violin now so you can be my understudy in this musical, just in case i destroy my violin out of sheer frustration" and maybe MAYBE you should also consider if you have ever seen me and shownu in the same room hmmm

if I was someone who wanted to be a kpop idol, cube would be one of the last companies I would go to- like I think I’d audition at unknown companies before hitting up cube if I was that desperate Lmaoo cause like, the shit you hear about them. I mean, they seem to really only give a shit about gidle and even gidle members hate cube 😂😂😂
And omg yeah it’s crazy cause pentagon had so much potential, especially when shine became so viral.
RIGHT even their best selling artist hates them like cube has got to be THAT bad
honestly they were already kinda bad but i think they went even further downhill after that whole hyuna/dawn fiasco, i think their reputation in the industry really went south after that

idk why I expect shownu to be dumb lool like when I watch them play games, just because he's kind of clueless and he isn't loud at how much he's into it, I expect him to be dumb. He's a freaking economics major. No he's always attentive and he's so smart. Like why do I have this idea..
Suddenly I'm reminded of when wonho said everyone's smart except him 😭 aww bless him..
sometimes i swear shownu isn't human lmao he'll look all bored and unassuming and then pull out the most amazing moves when they play games in variety shows. he is SO smart but sometimes i think he just blanks out or doesn't get stressed about things that the others get stressed about
and honestly wonho is also super attentive, he has such a high EQ?? he should give himself more credit, i bet if he wasn't so nice (and if he could stop giggling every 5 seconds) he'd be so good at all those mind games where you have to manipulate other players

Seunghan on hiatus and rest of bts enlisting soon… this is… a lot 😭💀 I don’t even pay attention to either group but damn, I was not expecting either of those announcements.
Also I’m sorry but it’s so unfair to seunghan that he’s getting in trouble for… having a life?? Like?? I can’t even imagine how riize Stans are feeling cause I’m not even a fan and I’m annoyed on his and their behalf
all the 3rd gen bgs going for enlistment... at least it'll be over faster, just power through it!!
literally what... his scandal was all because he had a girlfriend and he partied?? like teenagers do?? i'm not a stan either but i feel so sorry for him and his group like whichever friend was "leaking" all that stuff.. man it must suck to be betrayed like that
