#tHEY DESERVE THIS ON DECEMBER THE 2ND

[thinkwosolife23]

Reputation Part 2, Alexia Putellas

You didn't ever anticipate playing against your sister. But here you were, currently flying from Barcalona to London for the first leg of the Champion's League Quarter Final. There were 7 teams that you could've faced but it had to be Arsenal. But facing Arsenal meant multiple things; not only were you facing your childhood club, you also had to face your past - you had to face Katie again.

These past few months had been better than you could've ever imagined. You grew up at Arsenal: you held such a love for the club and nothing would ever change that. But Barcalona gave you a different sense of belonging, like you were a piece of their jigsaw. Like they cherished you for you and not for being Leah Williamson's little sister.

Barcalona were currently sat at the top of the league as well as being in the quarter finals of the Champions League, you wanted to retain both of those titles with the club.

In terms of your personal career: you were improving everyday and your hard work was paying off. At 24, you had just placed 2nd in the rankings for the Ballon D'or. Your club teammate, Aitana Bonmatí had took the top spot.

And then there was Alexia.

She was a dream. She continued to impress you day by day, the world had tossed you the most beautiful, kind and caring soul you could've ever imagined. You didn't know what you did to deserve her.

Since that conversation at the club, you and Alexia had gone on so many different dates. Ranging from movie night on the sofa to picnics on the beach to resturant dinners. You spent weeks trying to prove that you only wanted her, you only needed her.

So, you asked her to be your girlfriend on New years eve.

Flashback……. 31st December 2023

You and Alexia had been apart over the christmas week. Her staying in spain with her mum and sister and you going back to England to be with your family.

Your flight had landed quite late in the afternoon, and Alexia was none the wiser that you were back in Barcalona.

The plan you had to ask Alexia to be your girlfriend was all ready to go.

Mapi had got Alexia to the beach just as you had asked. And now you had just go to said beach. You could see her on the beach just looking at the sunset and the sea. You had gotten Alexia a promise ring whilst back in England and it was currently sat in the back pocket of your jeans.

You headed towards where Alexia was stood and wrapped your arms around her waist, causing her to jump at your touch, clearly not expecting it.

As soon as she turned around, she jumped into your hold; wrapping her legs around your waist and her arms around your neck.

"Tu espalda, te extrañé." (Your back, I missed you.)

"Yo también te extrañé, amor." You said whilst placing her back down on the ground. (I missed you too, love.)

"¿Por qué estamos en la playa?" She asked, confused. (Why are we on the beach?)

"Bueno, quería sorprenderte en algún lugar que ambos amáramos." (Well, I wanted to suprise you somewhere we both loved.)

And it's true, you and Alexia loved the beach. It was one of your favourite places to be together other than the football pitch. Obviously.

"Y quería preguntarte algo." You continued. (And I wanted to ask you something.)

"¿Pregúntame qué?" (Ask me what.)

You took a step back from Alexia and got down on one knee whilst grabbing the promise ring from your back pocket.

"¿No crees que es un poco pronto para esto?" Alexia laughed slightly. (Don't you think it's a bit early for this?)

"No te lo voy a proponer, todavía no." It was only then you realised what it look liked you were going to do. (I'm not proposing, not yet.)

"Oh."

"Es un anillo de promesa. No puedo prometer que no tendremos discusiones ni consecuencias. No puedo prometer que seré perfecto porque ha pasado mucho tiempo desde que hice todo esto. Pero puedo prometerte que siempre estaré a tu lado, siempre te respaldaré y trataré de protegerte. Quiero que seamos tú y yo contra el mundo. Quiero estar contigo y solo contigo. Entonces Alexia, ¿serás mi novia?" (It's a promise ring. I can't promise that we won't have arguements, or fallouts. I can't promise that i'll be perfect because it's a long time since i've done all this. But I can promise that i'll always be by your side, i'll always back you up and try to protect you. I want it to be me and you against the world. I want to be with you and only you. So Alexia, will you be my girlfriend?)

By this point, you were both shedding tears. But Alexia quickly nodded and put her hand out so you could put her promise ring on. She pulled you up and soon attached her lip to yours whilst wrapping her arms around your neck, yours going to her hips pulling her closer to you.

"Te amo." She told you, resting her forehead on yours. (I love you.)

"Yo tambien te amo hermosa" (I love you too, beautiful.)

Flashback Over.

And here you were now, heading towards the tunnel of the Emirates stadium to play your former team.

Your former teammates were already stood in the tunnel, as were some of your current teammates, waiting to head out onto the pitch. Before joining your own sqaud, you quickly went to the front of the Arsenal squad where your sister was stood.

Leah soon wrapped her arms around you, wishing you good luck and telling you that she would speak to you after the game, also letting you know that your mum and brother were in the crowd watching the pair of you.

Alexia was stood on the opposite side to Leah, as they were both captains. You gave her hand a squeeze before heading to the back of the Barcalona squad.

As you were heading back to your spot, you realised that Katie was the person opposite you on the Arsenal side.

It just had to be her didn't it.

"Long time, no see, Y/N" Katie said, with that stupid little smirk on her face.

"Fuck off, McCabe!" You snapped back at her before you were pulled away by Mapi who was stood in front of you.

As soon as you were in sight. The stadium was filled with boo's, the Arsenal fans clearly stating that they felt the betrayal of you leaving. You had expected it though: being there since you were little and then leaving, you knew not everyone would agree with that. Especially the fans.

You had to shut it all out, your focus needed to be on the game.

Arsenal's Starting 11:

GK - M. Zinsberger LB - S. Catley CB - L. Williamson (C) CB - L. Wubben-Moy RB - K. McCabe CDM - L. Walti CM - K. Little CM - F. Maanum LW - C. Foord ST - A. Russo RW - B. Mead

Barcalona Starting 11:

GK - S. Panos LB - O. Batlle CB - I. Paredes CB - M. Leon RB - L. Bronze CDM - K. Walsh CM - P. Guijarro CM - A. Bonmati LW - A. Putellas ST - Y/N Williamson RW - C. G. Hansen

In all honesty, Barcalona were all over Arsenal during the first half, managing to get two goals past the. You and Patri being the two goal scorers, Alexia assisting them both.

However, in the second half, the Arsenal players started to become a lot more reckless. Late challenges, shirt grabs, harsh elbows and pushes was becoming incredibly frequent. You and Alexia seemed to be on the recieving end of most of them.

You managed to contain your fustration, that was until Katie tackled Alexia in the box. It was a high tackle from behind, Katie's studs going straight into the back of Alexia's calf, sending her straight to the ground.

Most of your teammates quickly ran over to where Alexia was laying on the ground. But you went rushing over to where Katie was stood and gave her a harsh push.

"What was that?" You shouted, causing you and Katie to go face to face.

"Proteceting your flavour of the month, how sweet." Katie laughed, her irish voice appearing sarcastic.

"I don't blame you, though. She seems like the desperate type." She continued.

By this point, you had Katie by her collar. Your hands clamped on Katie's shirt. Members of both teams trying to pull the pair of you.

Leah managed to get inbetween you both, her body blocking you from getting to Katie.

"You need to drop it, Y/N." Her sister voice coming out, trying to calm you down.

It wasn't until you heard someone else's voice that you were pulled away.

"Oye mirarme. No estoy herido, ella sólo está intentando llegar a ti." Alexia told you calmly, her hand grabbing yours to walk off. (Hey, look at me. I'm not hurt, she's just trying to get to you.)

Alexia scored the penalty that was awarded for Katie's challenged. The rest of the game went all Barcalona's way.

It finished 4-0 with you managing to get yourself a brace. After speaking to some of you former teammates, you went to find Alexia. Your eyes softened when you saw where she was, her and Leah were talking and laughing about something. Two of your favourite peopel, that sight would never get old.

Over the few months you known Alexia, you had managed to teach her some English. She asked you teach her so she could talk to your family.

You headed over to where they were stood talking. You went up behind Alexia and wrapped your arms around her waist, before kissing her cheek. You felt her lean back into your hold, her hands resting over yours.

"Where's mum?" You asked, directing your question to Leah.

She pointed to just next to the Arsenal benches, you looked towards where she was pointing to see your Mum and brother.

You took yourself away from holding Alexia before grabbing her hand pulling her in the direction of your Mum and brother.

"¿A dónde vamos?" She questioned you hesitantly. (Where are we going?)

"Es hora de usar tu inglés, amor." (Time to use your english, love)

"¡Qué! Eliges después de un partido completo para que yo los conozca adecuadamente." (What! You pick after a full match for me to properly meet them.)

"Sí, ahora vamos." (Yeah, now come on.)

When you eventually got to your Mum and Jacob, you gave them both a hug before introducting Alexia.

"Mum, Jacob. This is Alexia, she's my girlfriend."

The three of them were extemely fast to jump into conversation. Alexia's english was better than you thought it was. Was there anything this girl couldn't do?

You left them to talk, as you and Leah went around the stadium together.

"You love her, don't you." She asked you, the look on her face telling she already knew what the answer was going to be.

"I really do, Le." Your gaze followed straight to where Alexia was still talking to your Mum and brother.

"I'm sure there's worse sister in laws in the world." She chuckled to herself.

"I'm gonna marry her." You told her confidently.

"You down that bad, huh."

"She's my person, Leah."

Hello, and welcome to 'Thoughts on the Try Guys streaming platform thing', by basically the only remaining try guys dedicated account on Tumblr (I think (Also ignore I haven't changed my pfp after the controversy))

So, as I've said before, I think the guys really managed this very well when you compare today's video with Watcher's announcement from a few weeks back. They seem to be using the new streaming service as a fancier Patreon that you can subscribe to if you like the content and want more of it, plus the exclusive vids or extra stuff, but it doesn't seem like it's meant to replace the channel and leave the people who can't afford it behind. They are offering a lot of new shows, many of which they teased on the youtube channel. The little pilots were used not only to give us a taste of what 2nd Try will be like but also introduced the new cast members! (I guess it's apropiate now to call Johnny Cakes, Kwesi, Marissa and rest as Try Guys too?). I'm so so happy to see them now as main talent; they helped carry the new era of the channel for the last year and a half and deserve the recognition.

Hooowever, I will say this.

I feel like the way they are handling this transition (and, let's be frank, the reaction from the audience) would not have been the same without the Watcher TV announcement and its fallout.

In case you don't know: Zach and Keith told us there would be a BIG announcement around this time of year way back in December. In early May (I think) watcher announced their own streaming service and literally everybody hated it. In mid-may, on a random Wednesday, the try guys channel just? don't post anything? and it seems like a very last minute decision to not post a video when they have posted videos every Wednesday for years? And now, a week later, they announce their own streaming service (with a video that references Watcher's announcement, so we know it was filmed after that was posted).

We can only guess, of course. Nothing is confirmed. But it really seems like they were going, if not the same, a very similar route that Watcher was. This is why I struggle to give them that much credit for offering a better deal that the Ghoul boys did, since I don't think they would've taken the same decisions a month ago. I want to think they are good guys who understand that most people can't afford to pay for this and they wouldn't put ALL their content behind a pay wall. But if you asked me a moth ago, I would have told you that Ryan and Shane were incapable of that too.

So I guess I'm not sure how to feel lol.

(Also I know many watcher fans are kinda mad that the try guys are getting a better response that Watcher did and also that Keith and Zach referenced the Watcher.tv vid because they think it was shady.

Calm down. They're literally friends. I bet they know what's okay to joke about and what isn't. I even bet they spoke about this in the last few weeks. Calm. Down)

would anyone be interested in/likely to participate in a rerun of TOTA Takeover this December?

for those that missed it: takin over the asylum takeover was an event me and @jaykinarts ran last December, that basically worked as a TOTA appreciation week. Each day follows a different character/thing, and you post about that character on that day. Posts can range from random thoughts, incoherent ramblings, photos, gifsets, fanfiction, art, literally anything - as long as it's on the right day and tagged as '#tota takeover".

while the point is to appreciate takin over the asylum, it's also about filling the tag with some non-campbell centric posts and appreciation, and giving (particularly) the women of the show some deserved attention

i feel like it'd be nice to make it an annual thing. would anyone be interested in participating?

would probably be the 2nd week of December again, 9th-14th

Welcome to my side blog!~

๋࣭ ⭑⚝⋆｡ ﾟ☁︎｡ ⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡ ⋆ ⚝ ๋࣭ ⭑⚝⋆｡ ﾟ☁︎｡ ⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡ ⋆

๋࣭ ⭑⚝ Info ๋࣭ ⭑⚝

๋࣭ ⭑ It was December 2003 when I watched the first Harry Potter film. I fell in love with the film! I saw the 2nd movie when it came out at the time but for the rest I didn't watch until 2020. (Yes I know, WAY LATE.) As for the books I've never read until now which I am slow at but I am reading the books.

๋࣭ ⭑⚝ Why the love for Snape? ๋࣭ ⭑⚝

๋࣭ ⭑ First and foremost, I am a huge fan of Alan Rickman. He has captured my heart with his exceptional acting skills and down-to-earth personality. He knows just how to bring a character to life and add that extra spark of excitement! ๋࣭ ⭑ One of the other reasons I am drawn to Snape as a character is his unique appearance. Tall and dark, with an aquiline nose and long black hair, he is like a piece of eye candy for me. There's something captivating about men who dress in all black, especially if it's in vintage styles that are more modest. Maybe it's just my quirky Aquarius side, but I find what others may consider unusual and strange to be fascinating and uniquely attractive.  ๋࣭ ⭑ But on a deeper note…I love Snape because I can relate to the bullying he went through while at Hogwarts and I had a friend in 5th grade who was bullied and outcasted like him. Like jayrickman on TikTok put it… “If you asked me what I think about the Marauders, I would say…That like every other character they had their flaws and strengths and that I quite like Remus! But if you asked me on a deeper level…I would say they were horrible people (except for Remus), that came from wealthy influential families and bullied people until a point of attempted murder and S.A. Nothing can ever justify that and I’m wholeheartedly convinced that, if Severus was not excluded by literally everyone BUT Slytherins, he would’ve turned out to be a completely different person. People crave companionship. Milieu forms people.The Slytherins passively and actively brainwashed him to think of his hatred towards his abusive muggle father as hatred towards all muggles. He was abused at home and thought Hogwarts would be his safe place, only to then be bullied there too. Marauders fans have managed to spin their little fanfictions in such a way that they actually made the victim the villain. Snape becoming a bully is such a CLASSIC case of the abused becoming the abuser yet Marauders fans will still say that he deserved to be S.A. I sincerely wish I was privileged enough to say things like ‘sometimes bullying is okay’ because it is more than apparent that no Marauders stan has ever felt what it’s like to have absolutely no one and cling on to whatever lifeline you have. It was always Tobias’ and the Marauders fault that he turned out the way he did.” 

๋࣭ ⭑ I am someone who faced bullying since Elementary because of being of mixed race and the things I like, being S.A during my 10th and 11th grade school years and people saw and did nothing as well as the staff and then having a good majority of my so-called ‘friends’ tell me ‘it was my fault’ and ditched me when I needed them most. I feel a kinship to Snape through that trauma, unfortunately.

๋࣭ ⭑⚝⋆｡ ﾟ☁︎｡ ⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡ ⋆ ⚝ ๋࣭ ⭑⚝⋆｡ ﾟ☁︎｡ ⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡ ⋆

๋࣭ ⭑⚝What will we see on this blog? ๋࣭ ⭑⚝

๋࣭ ⭑ Well, you should be seeing things related to the Potion Master, my character Sandrine Everhart and anything and everything H.P related. ๋࣭ ⭑ On top of that I will be sharing commissions of Snape and Everhart on here too.

elenas diaries!

December 28th I can't go back. Is it correct? Will Cucurucho and the rest of the workers believe me?

December 30th I can't sleep, I feel guilty. Maybe I was the one that deserved to die and not that worker.

January 2nd The Federation hasn't contacted me yet. That's something good... right? .... right????

January 3rd, It's making me go insane. I am innocent. I didn't mean to kill the worker. They need to believe me.

My Apologies, and Updates

I haven't started yet on becoming willogenic after my breakdown yesterday. It severely messed me up. Especially since I am going to the same state my mother lives in for Thanksgiving to hold up my end of a promise to a family member that didn't traumatize me. Will not post every day just yet as I need to regulate my emotions and prepare myself for anything that happens when I am there. I will be leaving my partners the 24th of November and won't be back until the 2nd of December. A little over a week being away from my anchors and the people I love and cherish.

As for updates, I have a generalized idea of the wonderland. Something that would be a calm and tranquil place. It's something I have somewhat imagine already via meditations for other things. A log cabin in the middle of the woods, away from civilization. A campfire not too far away. The cabin being ever changing to fit the amount of willomates I may gain. Especially when giving each their own room to decorate as pleased. I'm still working it all out, but hopefully this will suffice for now as I take care of myself these next few weeks.

Remember, you all are valid. Endogens, traumagns, willogens and more. Make sure to eat a snack and drink something hydrating today. The body deserves nutrients.

BRF Reading - 2nd of December, 2023

This is speculation only

Cards drawn on the 1st of December, 2023

Question: Did Harry ring King Charles on his birthday?

Interpretation: I think he did, or he tried to call.

Card One: The King of Pentacles

This card represents King Charles as Harry sees him - the King of Money. The energy from this card is of someone who holds all the money and the desire to get money from that person. If Harry did ring King Charles on his birthday, it was about money, so it looks like the story told by Arthur Edwards and referenced in an ask below did actually happen (it is always nice when the cards tie in with real life events).

Card Two: The Page of Wands

Pages are children, and pages are messengers, so King Charles could have received a message from his child. Harry may not have spoken directly to his father, as pages don't always speak directly to Kings, but he may have given the message to someone else (like an aide or a chamberlain) to be passed on to his father.

On the other hand, wands are ideas, creative ventures, and PR, so this could be an idea that Harry had that was not followed through, or it could be a PR message put out by Harry. However, given that the Page of Wands card is dashing directly towards the King of Pentacles card, I am inclined to think that Harry did call his father on his birthday, or at least attempted to call him on his birthday (I'm not sure if the message got through or not - Harry may have had to call again the next day or at a later date).

I'm getting a very impulsive, spur of the moment energy from this card, so if Harry did call his father, it was on the spur of the moment and not planned in advance. Wands are a very fiery energy, so it could be that Harry called him because Harry was in a strop over something and decided to have it out with his father.

Card Three: The Four of Wands

This is a card of home and celebrations, so that fits in with the idea of a birthday. If a message was sent, then it was sent and received for King Charles's birthday, so on the day itself or around that time (one or two days before or after the birthday).

Underlying Energy: Justice

This card has me stumped. Justice is about justice being served, legal proceedings, truth, honesty, accountability, being responsible for your actions, consequences, and so on. The only energy I am getting from this card is that Harry thought the phone call was about a matter of justice and getting what he deserved, and who knows how that translates into real life.

Conclusion:

I think Harry did ring or get a message to his father at the time of his father's birthday, but it wasn't to wish King Charles 'Happy Birthday', it was to ask for money. The call or message may have come one or two days before or after the actual day of King Charles's birthday. The call or message was done quickly, on the spur of the moment, and most likely was fuelled by a sense of righting a wrong that had been done to Harry (in Harry's mind) or of getting something that Harry thought was due to him. It was then used for Sussex PR (as we have seen). It is very clear that the call was about money and that Harry views his father primarily as a source of money (the 'Bank of Pa'), or at least that was Harry's major concern in this instance.

Happy December 2nd our sweet Georgia Peach!

Who of Chris and Seb's characters would make the best elf and helper for Santa?

Steve, Ari, Ransom, Johnny, Andy, or Cole Bucky, Jefferson, Lance, Carter, Chase, or Steve Kemp

The @theinheriteddutchess and I are working on some polls and ideas for a December of Fun and Silliness Challenge! We just want everyone to have some fun and laughs! We are working to have a different theme each day (or every other day depending on our schedules) and hoping everyone will play along with a pic, edit, gif, thirstiness, or even story idea! Whatever brings the fun and keeps it rolling!

I can't write but I can do very messy edits. Doesn't Bucky look happy playing elf to Ransom's Santa?🤣 Ransom finally got his milk for the cookies.🤭 Who would make the best elf?

Oh!!! I love this so much, and look at my babies!! Ransom and Bucky just make me so happy and I love and adore them both so much 🖤 and I love this idea. Spreading some holiday cheer one smoldering look at a time.

See!! I think Johnny would be an amazing Santa’s helper! You know he’s going to be all peppy with Christmas music, and he could make things be all cozy and warm just by changing his body temperature.

Bucky 🥹 he’s going to eat so many cookies, and drink so much hot chocolate. But he’ll be there for moral support. Plus, you love when he gets all warm and his cheeks blush with pure joy! Bucky deserves the best holiday season in the whole world ever!

The Cyberchase Homepage Through the years: part 1 (December 28, 2001 through December 12, 2004)

I decided to collect some screenshots showing the evolution of the Cyberchase area on the pbskids.org website over the years. Keep in mind that this is based off Wayback Machine archives, so I am limited to whichever variants the web crawler captured. They didn't necessarily crawl every time the page updated. There may also be assets missing, as the Wayback Machine doesn't always grab everything.

Let's start with the earliest known capture. This is from December 28th, 2001. This was 24 days before the show premiered.

We can see links to the webisodes, which were a set of official prequel web comics. There is a link to the original e-card creation page, as well as a link to the "What is Cyberchase?" page that explains the premise of the show.

The next major revision came up after the show released. The earliest capture of this page was on February 2nd, 2002. However, I picked a capture from August 3rd, 2002, as it was the earliest capture that wasn't missing any assets. We can see Jackie setting down to play the old Cyberchase flash game "Symmetrizer", while Matt is leaning on a small table near the TV that is advertising Season 1 Episode 18 "Problem Solving in Shangri-la". Inez and Digit are missing for some reason. Why is Buzz here without Delete?

They made a Christmas version of this page. The only capture I found was from December 3rd of 2002. They put some lights around their logo. Matt is now wearing a Santa hat. Jackie has a giant bow in her hair. Inez and Digit are still nowhere to be found. Did Matt and Jackie kick them out for breaking the TV?

The earliest capture I found of the next major update to the site was from December 3, 2003. Does anyone remember the "PBS Kids Go!" rebranding where they tried to market some of their shows to slightly older audiences? Inez and Digit are finally allowed to be in the group photo. They now have two TVs, as well as some combination of a computer and arcade cabinet. Why are Buzz and Delete here?

This version of the site got a Valentine's Day update to promote Season 2 Episode 1 "Hugs and Witches". This capture is from February 8th, 2004.

So, this capture from June 9th, 2004 is the same version of the site as prior to the Valentine's Day update. However, I thought I should include it because Creech and Slider popped in for a cameo.

Here is a capture from June 6th, 2004. It contains a summer promotion by Delete. It also replaced Jackie with a clone of Inez. This may have been a mistake in the website itself, since it seems to randomly pick a kid to put in a place on this background. Otherwise, the Wayback Machine may have grabbed the wrong image somehow.

And then, they cloned Matt on June 27, 2004. This must have been a mistake in the webpage code where they put the same kid in two places.

Yeah, Jackie got her turn to be cloned on June 29, 2004.

There was a layout update that added a promotion for new shows. I grabbed this example from September 3rd, 2004. It also shows off a contest from the time, which deserves its own post.

Fast-forwarding to October 13th, 2004, we have the kids in their Halloween costumes from Season 2 Episode 14 "Trick or Treat". We also see an advertisement for Season 3 Episode 11, "Shari Spotter and the Cosmic Crumpets". Apparently, they also fixed the duplication glitch.

On November 11th, 2004 We get a link to the winners of that contest.

This capture from December 12, 2004 shows that the kids have decorated for Starlight Night. We also see an advertisement for Season 3 Episode 12 "Starlight Night".

This seems like a good place to leave of for now. I didn't realize how many variants there were until I got into it. I will make a part 2 at some point.

Probably, some controversial opinions

I remember back in Face era when we were complaining about how short Jimin's promotion period was and a lot of armys were saying that it had to be this way because they have no time but apparently there is a lot of time for other members like Jungkook who has been promoting since he released Seven in July and he'll continue to promote probably until December even, i have seen that man's face more than my mom's at this point.

It's just frustrating for me as a fan because i think that Jimin's first solo album has been something that i, as a fan, was waiting and expecting for so long and the fact that everything felt so rushed and short is sad and heartbreaking. It doesn't change the fact that it was really meaningful, it made history and it changed me as a person, i love that album so much but i just wish we have gotten more of jimin with his solo album.

i want to make very clear that my opinion stand even if it was jimin's decision to make his promotion period that short because i don't believe that just because you like an artist you can't criticize their decisions or you can't disagree with what they do, so. if it was his decision i still would wish for it to be longer.

Another thing that i wanted to say is that at this point i just can laugh about how obvious Hybe/Bighit is being with their favoritism, what else can i do. My biggest complain with the company isn't that they didn't give like crazy 10 remixes no, my biggest complain is that they couldn't even do the BARE minimum for Jimin and that song even after it reached #1 in Billboard HOT100. There are things that happened that don't have any explanation other than the company being shady and i want to make it clear that i'm not talking about the promotion that Jimin physically him could have done after Like Crazy got #1; i'm talking about stuff the company could have made to promote the song even a little because it got #1 like playlisting or restocking the cd. I even thought that overlapping promotions is something that they don't do and that's why Jimin's promoting was so rushed but during Taehyung's album release month Jungkook was still there promoting Seven in Stationhead so they can overlap promotions, they just didn't care about doing that with Jimin's song.

And i don't think a lot of that stuff was Jimin's decision, do you think that Jimin the day like crazy was #1 on the top 50 global of spotify he picked up the phone to call spotify and said "please split my song so i'm not #1 anymore☹️" let's be serious and the fact that Hybe still hasn't restocked like crazy cds even though fans have been begging them since March, don't they want to make money? it just doesn't make sense. The shady article that came out from their own company were they diminish Jimin's achievements is even super weird.

In March i gave them the benefit of the doubt and i thought maybe they didn't know what do to do or they weren't expecting Like Crazy to be #1 but after everything they did with Jungkook's Seven they made it clear that they know what to with a successful song and i don't even think that what Seven got is payola, i think they gave him the rightfully promo he deserved but they couldn't do the same for Jimin.

It's just hilarious for me, as a fan of BTS, that for so long have been repeatedly reminded that BTS are 7 and the 7 of them are equally important and for this 2nd chapter of BTS to come and for Hybe to be so obvious about the favoritism that they have is just laughable and i think that because of this point is obvious that there will be some armys complaining about how not all of them are in the same playfield, also, i have seen some people say that they all have different music and different audiences and therefore Bighit couldn't have done the same promo for all of them and i think that's just stupid; Hybe is such a big company and they have the money and they have the resources to give all of them, the seven of them, the same promo and to not underestimated them before they even debuted as a soloist. like just give them all the promo. they're all bts and made bts what it's today.

At last, i just wanted to say all of this because i'm frustrated. I think that knowing that the company didn't submit Like Crazy for some awards made these thoughts and feelings i've been having resurface and these are things that i have been thinking for months, some are just questions that i have that don't make sense and i'd love for someone to give me an answer so i don't think that Jimin's own company is sabotaging him, it's just insanity and seeing armys so against even saying the little thing against the company is just frustrating, you can have your own opinions and disagree with something that has been happening.

and i love jimin and i think he deserves so much better. he's such an amazing artist and i would love to experience more of what he has to offer as a soloist, face was such an excellent debut and it left me waiting for more solo music from him.
