The Scariest Question I've Ever Been Asked?

The Scariest Question I’ve Ever Been Asked?

I actually wrote this draft a few weeks back but didn’t get a chance to post it then. This isn’t related to anything recent or specific, aside from having had people ask me this question multiple times in the past. Thanks! Out of all the questions asked of me, I have to say this one is the scariest: “Hey Odie, what should I think about this?” It’s one thing to ask me what’s going on and how I…

CLOCKED: Why The Music Industry's "TikTok Solution" Probably Won't Pan Out

"It makes absolutely no sense to look at moments of chance, luck, or unintended domino effects and treat them as if they signal the ability to track similar outcomes and manufacture or control them."

There sat Halsey, practically in tears as she shared, via a Tik Tok video of all things, that the label is withholding the release of her new music. According to her, they are hesitant to go forward with a single that she knows her fans will love, unless she can make a “viral moment” via the clock app to get people excited enough to stream and buy. It’s a similar story to what Adele’s label…

3 Proven ARMY Strategies To Counter Bad-Faith Media Slander

Our community uses proven methods of dealing with people who have the worst of intentions, so please remember these strategies and outcomes whenever you're feeling angry, powerless, or afraid...

I want to start by saying something extremely important, so please pay attention: Any comeback campaign by members of the press to denigrate BTS and malign ARMY isn’t about “distracting ARMY.” Poison and venom are not the same, even if they both are meant to cause harm. Never mistake the intentions of antis on social media for that of connected members of the media who do this type of thing in…

3 Reasons Why Gatekeeping Will NEVER Work Within ARMY Culture

Maintaining the health of and goodwill within a large fandom or community is very, VERY hard. One thing that has always worked to ARMY’s advantage is that we’ve generally been very gracious and open regarding who is welcomed into our fandom and how we treat the newest members. But sadly, I have seen more and more gatekeeping behaviors from people who should know better if they are as “veteran” an…

BTS IS COMING! New Album Announced With Release Date

After an admittedly rough week, leave it to BTS to make it end on an epic note! 🎉At the end of Saturday’s concert, attendees saw this video: BOOM, COMEBACK DATE! BTS is dropping a new album on June 10th. Needless to say, the ARMY at the concert went feral. https://twitter.com/bangtanchords/status/1515586003674681344 ARMY not at the concert went feral, too, I mean WE ARE REALLY ABOUT TO GET A…

I Have No Idea How To Title This

So I wanted to snap back into fandom action by today. But each waking hour was spent doom scrolling on Reddit, which sent me to Twitter for additional doom scrolling. I went back and forth between images of decimated Russian vehicles and fandom-related tweets. I wanted to make witty quips and discuss fan theories. Truly, I have a lot of things I would love to talk about. Positive, funny,…

BTS & Fragile Masculinity

BTS by its very existence is likely perceived as a kind of attack, a menace that threatens to upend traditional gender behaviors and perceptions. And, most importantly, dare to get women to feel loving and accepting toward ourselves...

You’ve likely seen, heard about, or experienced this yourself. You’re enjoying BTS or there’s a fun announcement concerning them, and some man (family member, friend, husband, or stranger) decides to confront you about it, misgendering BTS members as “women” or “girls” and angrily attacking their looks, behavior, and identities as men. They then go out of their way to remind you what “real music”…

"But What Will The BTS Antis Think?!"

“But What Will The BTS Antis Think?!”

Yes, in 2021, there are still people who prioritize the negative opinions of people who HATE BTS and ARMY. And they live their entire fandom life carefully saying things that won’t rock the boat with haters. They’re scared of being mocked. Scared that the people who love to hate us will have something new to crow about if we aren’t careful. And unfortunately, people operating under this logic…

The Curious Case of Billboard's Bullsh*t

The Curious Case of Billboard's Bullsh*t (I had to go off Twitter for this one... ☕)

I know this blog post is technically a few days late. However, I needed a little time to decompress before addressing Billboard’s ongoing self-serving hypocrisy as directed at BTS and ARMY. I also wanted to take some time away from social media to get my head right and focus on my personal life. Now that I have done as much, let’s take another look at Billboard’s amateurishly ham-fisted attempt…

On Learning To Love Yourself Right Now

It can be a near-impossible task for many of us to stop and simply accept ourselves as we are at this very moment. There can be this sensation that you’ll love yourself, REALLY love yourself, when you lose those pesky 25 pounds. Or when you get your teeth straightened and pearly white. Or when you stop being such an anxious, unsure, jittery mess. We’re always told to strive to be the best…

Ignoring BTS & Gaslighting ARMY Won't Work (Sorry, Not Sorry)

PSA: Ignoring BTS & Gaslighting ARMY Won't Work (Sorry, Not Sorry)

I have so much content backed up thanks to (predictably) having a lot of extra work thrust on me. But that wasn’t going to stop me from getting this point out in blog form. *clears throat* No amount of gaslighting, ignoring, defaming, or invalidation will make BTS magically disappear. Such efforts also will not magically elevate the bland as fuck industry plants that people do not care enough…

PSA On The Absurdity Of Guilt Tripping BTS ARMY

A PSA On The Absurdity Of Guilt-Tripping ARMY: Featuring ALL The Receipts & A Read From The Heart...

They say you can’t shame the shameless, but you can at the very least give them a sideways glance that asks if they lost their minds. Or at least their memories. At what point did people delude themselves into thinking ARMY was the fandom to guilt-trip into giving up? It’s a fandom that has always stood apart. In the beginning, it probably wasn’t entirely our choice, but these days, I think it’s…

THREAD: Appeasing The Music Media By Throwing Teen Girls Under The Bus Is Stupid & Pointless

DISCLAIMER Although inspired by a specifically disturbing interview I saw on my TL (that I’ve since been told was heavily falsified, which I can believe because the writer sounded like an ass), this thread isn’t based on any singular band or artist, whether a former teen idol or pop rock group. The issue weaves its way through decades of music industry misogyny, from one side to the other.…

Billboard Needs To Fix Its Passive-Aggressive Bias Against BTS

Billboard has a “BTS bias” problem. That might seem rich coming from me, a full-fledged ARMY, someone expected to be biased when it comes to BTS. However, I am not claiming to be a reliably objective “Bible” for the week-by-week popularity of American music.

An organization like Billboard should notbe going out of its way to make it abundantly clear how disappointed it is that a non-white,…
