Have you seen the BB article today BPP? (Idw to link it sorry but I think you know it).
***
Yup, Anon. I've read it. It's giving a lot of saving face and scapegoating by Billboard, as usual, given the fact that for every example of a Korean artist they used there's a more egregious Western artist example (Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen, etc) literally on the same charts that they ignored. [ It's interesting too the k-pop groups with more ridiculous version : sales ratios that they conspicuously excluded from the article. ] It also shows the obvious gaffe from Jimin solos that I alluded to earlier this year, re: publicly disclosing huge amounts outside ARMY buying channels and publicly soliciting ARMY sales. Thankfully, the uproar at the time served as a teachable moment for the solo stans of Taehyung and Jungkook (for Seven), since so far they've only disclosed huge amounts raised (>$7K) only within private channels. The few public tweets their solos had the sense to not hype them up to blow up. But either way, it's a nasty job by Billboard right around the time considerations for the Grammys and other awards will start going around.
Nothing we haven't seen before but they are becoming less tactful about it now. The 2023 - 2024 award season will be very interesting. I suggest you grab your popcorn for the fireworks and carnage. And keep streaming. :)
#I don't think the fandom is prepared for what Billboard is setting up#But there's no real growth without some spillage as they say#k-pop stans who have been salivating for their comeuppance#they might get their chance this year#they shouldn't get too comfortable either though#the calculus is always different for POC artists#bts#bangtan#billboard#kpop#kpop industry#kpop music

Well, I've experienced some pretty rough weeks of bad news in my life, but this one's certainly up there. (Nothing health or family-related.) If anyone's inclined to say something nice or kind about my existence making the world a tiny bit better, I would be rather grateful.
#not trek#all the stars have been aligning this year toward me getting my dream job#like in the you will never have a better chance at this variety#like in the there are fewer positions in this field than there are fingers on one hand#like I was already filling in doing the job#and I. I did not get it#so that’s just. it#I have a good job don’t get me wrong#but the election and then losing the thing I’ve worked my whole life towards in less than a week#it just. it just kind of gets you down you know#anyway.#might delete later

there's something to be said about this trend of doing prelim hip screening on very young dogs and freaking out when they look kinda meh
there's a whole bunch of other somethings to be said about vets apparently bringing up FHO as an option based on those prelims??
#i feel like my brain might leak out of my ears sometimes#and i am not a medical professional. not even a medical amateur#but even in my own private life ive seen (frankly kinda poorly done) hip xrays and hear that the vet that took them#held up surgery as an option for hips that were just mild to mild-moderate#idk if its got to do with more people screening and more professionals getting close to areas of the field theyre less experienced with#or what#but i#feel like i see more of it now than just a few years ago#imho prelims in general have limited value? if you're considering sinking thousands of dollars in importing a puppy for breeding#you may wanna rule out hips looking severe at baby ages#but if youre a regular person invested in the health of your individual dog - HD has such variability in expression#and prelims are just a general prediction (unless its getting old enough to soon get proper ones anyway OR you're looking at symptoms)#a great prelim prob wont turn awful and a terrible prelim wont turn great#but if your puppy is acting normal theres really nothing that xray will tell you that should much affect how you raise it#and a LOT of the ppl i see doing them now seem either mostly impatient or mostly looking for a reason to freak out#in case hips turn out looking TERRIBLE (mediocre) and HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN (because OFA fair is often FCI mild and also its chance)

I'm amused people dug up this post yesterday when i have been also shuffling things around in the background--
I've been planning of setting up a small preorder run for charms (limited as to not overwhelm myself) and these are one of the options i've been leaning into. ive sold them before locally and here's a sample of it. they're double sided with the bloody side at the back.
other stuff I'm digging for this are old persona charms/stands I'm still fond of (probably one of the akiham and ryuji ones) but I'm open to suggestions especially people have been requesting for prints for years. I'm not sure if I'll do prints but hearing out which ones you guys specifically want (prints or otherwise) will help me weigh what options I'll end up with!
feel free to message me or reply to this post and I'll consider it! thanks!!
#this is a good chance for those who've been waiting to buy stuff from me lord knows ive only sold my shit 3 or 4 times#the past few years outside of group/zine projects#if these go well i might be inclined to finish the rest of the kingsman sees squad wips ive had laying around for years#but i hold no promises#ill probs make a poll at some point to finalize but we'll see what suggestions i get#btw ive had that hamuko for like 3 years she is still going strong and protecting my keys

I love being aromantic because every now and then I get to play a very fun game of "am I crushing on this person or do I have no fucking idea what's going on and I'm just really fond of them"
#moss talks#it's extra fun when your parents are technically divorced and you get so scared that you completely drop everything and regret it for years#anyways guys it's so fucking over for me I got 2 crushes rn and i cannot see myself confessing to either of them#i LITERALLY cant confess to one because she's 1. straight 2. my best friend irl who i see all the time and 3. in the same program as me#so it would be soooooo easy for things to get sooooooo awkward and i'm not taking that chance <3#anyways might delete this later we'll see I just gotta get it out of my system rn before I combust#here's hoping that this blows over quickly weeeeeeeeee

Remember when Skullector dolls were supposed to be aimed at older monster high fans????
An Ellisabat doll dressed up as her movie character in the old gown and powdered wig would be a really great skullector doll imo.
Instead of grabbing up as many ips as they can to focus on selling to non monster high fans. Also where’s the news on the third wave of Creepros???? We don’t even have a guarantee on who’s in the third wave, just rumours and guesses on Operetta, Torelei, Nefera and/or Purrsephone and Meowlody.
#Monster High#a little rant#I’m tired of all these random ips constantly coming out. fucking release a couple dolls a year worth their price#and do more rereleases. I’d put money aside to get rereleases missing from my original collection#rerelease basic dolls twice a year!!! rerelease the fashion packs!!! rerelease other doll lines#I’d love to get the rest of the gloom beach or dead tired etc I’m missing#would love a chance to get them complete and get the fashion packs#a fang vote for a playset rerelease might be cool too#I know some people would really like dracs roadster and I’d like her or Frankie’s beds

Something I've been thinking a lot about lately is how everyone thought Egon had gone insane. What Happened that made them think that. They've fought a gigantic Stay Puft Marshmellow Man TWICE (counting the 2009 video game because iirc it's canon? Correct me if I'm wrong), fought an interdimensional god, fought a blood thirsty ruler that killed thousands and was hated by all that was trapped in a painting (and managed to get in to beat him by making THE STATUE OF LIBERTY start walking down the street with slime that reacted purely based on vibes), found an underground abandoned transit system full of the moodslime, had a bathtub try to eat Dana and her baby, fought a giant murderous black widow lady, fought the fisherman ghost who turned an entire hotel floor into the bottom of a ocean, and that's not even mentioning them getting trapped on an island that randomly raised up from underwater that had been abandoned for decades created by Ivor Shandor who worshipped Gozer. So what did he do or say that made everyone else think he'd gone insane?? All I can think is maybe he was acting strange / eratic before, but he's always been like that to some degree.
I don't know. It's something that I've been thinking about. The correct answer is 'it's not that deep and they needed a reason that the others weren't together anymore and weren't aware of Egons death or know what was going on,' but also. What Was He Saying that prompted everyone, including Ray, to think he lost his mind when he'd been right almost every time before that.
I'm genuinely so curious as to what he was up to before this. What was he doing. What insane idea was working on prior to this or was he even working on anything at all??
Also want to clarify this post isn't negative 😭 I really love the newer movies and their lore / the newer storyline / characters, I just like thinking about small stupid things like this. Gives me something to think about / speculate about / figure out an answer to.
#ghostbusters#egon spengler#nikolas posts#I have so many thoughts on it because I've just been rewatching the two movies on loop for the past few days.#All we got was Ray saying that he'd started talking about the end of the world (IIRC) and that he went insane and took everything#when he eventually left to deal with it on his own#which for the record it's extremely impressive that he would've stopped Gozer from returning BY HIMSELF. The only reason it hadn't worked#was because of the electricity issue#Hiding all the traps and setting up the proton packs to fire at the hell pit?? Insanity. He's just on a complete different level of existin#Like they were aware of Ivor Shandor and his plans long before??? They found his ISLAND DEDICATED TO GOZER who had full intention of#BRINGING THEM BACK#it's really Really REALLY not this deep but I have thoughts and I wanted to share them. Maybe someone else might have an idea I#couldn't think of or might have something to add.#I guess it could be a 'they beat Gozer once and assumed they were gone' but that wasn't the first time Gozer 'died' so??#if I missed something Please tell me. I haven't watched the newer movies as much as the older ones (I grew up watching them / playing#the game so I'm more familiar with the older lore and haven't had the chance to rewatch the newer ones 1000 times over unfortunately)#so it's entirely possible I missed something#I'd think maybe it was just because they were older but I really don't think thats the case. I have reasoning for it but I need to do#the math to make sure I'm getting the ages right by the time AfterLife happens.#really need to make a chart / timeline of all the events that happened and what year / month / day they happened. That's a project#for tomorrow perhaps.#anyways if anyones reading this sorry for the insane rambling and congrats for making it to the end#also this post isn't negative I adore the newer movies so much. I love them a lot and I genuinely don't really care about this at all#just a thing to think / ponder / speculate about if that makes sense#I enjoy thinking about stupid irrelevant stuff like this#so so so many thoughts

They lay down in the soft sand at the foot of the dunes, and then they heard the first bird calling.
#will parry#lyra silvertongue#his dark materials#the amber spyglass#hdm fanart#doodles and miscellania#plus pan and kirj are off there in the distance...#happy bench day folks <3#someone was playing a very bittersweet piano tune somewhere outside my window as i drafted this.....kinda magical timing. anyway!#why did i choose to draw the dunes this year you may ask?#i don't really have a good reason i just felt like it :)#also in all honesty this didn't turn out exactly how i wanted it to look but considering a whole week went by where i thought#i might not get the chance to even START midsummer art i'm gonna take the win at getting it to this point#i miss!! sharing art!! so i'm gonna share it now

so apparently pocket camp is shutting down and they're replacing it with an offline version you just pay for once and then have forever and man maybe this is wishful thinking but if in the new one you can access all the limited time & paid items with just bells or something then I'll probably get back into pocket camp. I wouldn't pay full game price for it probably, but I'd pay up to like $45. I'd pay 3DS game prices.
#the way the announcement is worded. we are 'developing' an offline version#like it might just be you transfer your save data and that's that you just play with whatever you have#but if I can get NEW stuff that was previously pay walled or time locked?#events could be rerun by putting them on a preset schedule instead of having to be online#I know it's like 7 years of events so they probably can't do all of them every year#but I'm sure they could find a way for them to rotate out based on calendar date just like the mainline games#nintendo you have a chance to get one more cash grab out of the people who refused to interact with your microtransactions

PSA, keep your dog on a leash when you're in a public, unfenced area. dedicated to the lady that just tried to reassure me, "no she's nice! put your dog down! she's nice!" babe i believe you when you say your dog is nice. what you have not considered is that the dog I am holding is NOT nice and WILL attempt to attack your dog if I put him down. also we are RIGHT next to a busy road and there is Nothing stopping your dog from running into traffic. pls put her on a leash im literally begging you it is SO dangerous for her to not be on a leash here
#rye.txt#the dog I was walking is my grandma's dog and#for the first 10 years of his life#he was NEVER around other dogs or socialized with them#he is CRAZY reactive but it's never been a problem because I keep him on a short leash+harness so there's no chance of him#slipping out and charging at another dog#bUT THAT DOESNT HELP WHEN YOU ENCOUNTER A DOG THATS NOT ON A LEASH AND SPRINTS DIRECTLY AT YOU#im lucky he wears a harness for walks because I was able to just snatch him up directly with the leash#and then spent a solid two minutes dodging the excited dog with her owner going 'put your dog down! she's nice! put him down!'#trying to explain to this woman that I cannot in fact put him down because he WILL start a fight with your dog#it literally took several minutes before the woman realized I was saying 'yes your dog might be nice but MINE ISNT'#'NOW PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PUT HER ON A LEASH'#augh im so frustrated. like I get what she was saying. she was trying to diffuse the situation like#the dogs just need to get acquainted and then they'll play#but like. GIRL. you are at least in your mid 40s you should be old enough to be able to listen when people tell you that a situation is bad

Thinking bout the time someone yelled at me because they didn't understand butches.
#feeling some kind of way about telling queer stories lately#and what makes something “queer enough”#which. in my opinion is that any story I tell is queer enough because I am a queer person telling stories about queer characters#but there are always going to be people who call that into question if boys arent kissing boys and girls arent kissing girls#in easy uncomplicated ways#looking glasses is meant to be messy#everyone is at turning points in their lives. they're young adults whose identities and relatio ships aren't fully formed yet#but those complications (in my opinion) are what make the story queer#what are dess's pronouns? she/her but only because she hasnt had a chance to think about anything else#when an overbearing mother got her daughter back after they were missing for years#she might have a hard time adjusting to her child maybe not being her “daughter”#which is queerer: two women getting together or breaking up?#i dont think it matters#but I find these in between spaces interesting to explore#and it's my story that I'm doing for free#so even if dess looks too much like a man#i dont owe it to anybody to conform my story to someone else's expectations#(long ramble that probably isnt very coherent)#(i've just been thinking about some of this stuff lately. and this is the funniest response I've ever gotten to the comic)#(like yeah. she is a girl. good job!)#(i dont often get hate on the comic (which I'm glad for) so whenever I do I find the types of hate really fascinating)#(and dont worry. I got this months ago. I've just been thinking about it again recently and laughing)#nickel for my thoughts
