okay, finished listening to it and. wow. say what you wanna, but you can literally hear how much effort he put into this, whether he wrote it or not, sang in korean or not. he unleashed all his voice has to offer — from the high pitched adlibs in standing next to you to the low range in somebody, he gave his fkn all. god. i'm never getting over this.

We Need To Talk About Shipping

I just want to put this out there since this website seems to be full of delusional shippers who are pushing fictional narratives or chains of events that literally never happened irl. Now personally, I don't mind casual shipping (big gasp, I know). Like if you think two people are cute together or have great chemistry, that's fine; ppl tend to reflect their own desires onto other people/things, whether they be fictional or real ... create your stories, write your fics, draw some nice pictures ... the problem lies when you can no longer decipher your own fictional stories of your favorite ship from reality. If you have gotten to the point where you feel the need to argue over what ship is REAL in a space where these types of relationships haven't even been confirmed or acknowledged ... kindly exit the fandom and only come back after taking classes in human decency. If BTS hasn't confirmed a relationship, then we as fans must accept that as our reality. Of course, many of us have our speculations, but we should never overstep and promote those realms of possibility as true. You are allowed to think something might be real, but don't turn that idea of realness into false delusions about fabricated events. If you are in the ask box of a stranger accusing a BTS member of cheating on another BTS member with another BTS member... please take the time to reevaluate your life choices. I've seen jkkrs and tkkrs argue for hours over things that literally never happened. How can you guys accuse BTS members of purposely sabotaging another member in the name of a ship? I saw a jikook post that said JM was purposely trying to tick TH off by being 'intimate' with JK. Are you sure you're talking about Jimin? Like, Park Jimin? Kim Taehyung's best friend? That Jimin? One of the best examples that I can think of (right now) is JK's 25th birthday live when he told Jin that none of the members came to visit him for his birthday except for JM and HS. He confirmed TWICE that TH did not come to see him. Now normal people would look at this and just move on, bc we can understand that the other members probably sent happy birthday texts or even gave him a phone call. Just bc something is not done publicly does not mean it didn't happen. But anyways, tkkrs had the AUDACITY of accusing JK of lying, running with a fictitious lie that he had only said he didn't come to 'protect' TH. So are HS and JM not relevant in this equation at all? Did JK purposely mention JM and HS to put them in danger? You DO NOT get to accuse people that YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW of these types of things. Who the hell do you think you are? (also, I'm not targeting tkkrs, I understand that not every single one of you is a bad egg, but this is just the first example I could think of) Y'all need to throw blogs and youtube channels (*cough* taekook-lives *cough*) that have fake stories and leaked photos as evidence away. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, DO NOT SUPPORT SASAENG/STALKER PHOTOS, EVEN IF IT'S OF YOUR SHIP. Some shippers are far too comfortable using photos that were taken of BTS without their consent as ammo. You are gross. BigHit has protections! Half of these delulu shippers can't even interpret Kor words/sentences correctly and spew false garbage that is both utterly offensive toward BTS and the Kor lang. If you can't even take the time to properly consume the nuances of what is being said, what makes you think that you're such a good detective and can sniff out a relationship? Hell, they can't even tell when honorifics are being used or if they're speaking satoori! Is it so hard to consult actual Koreans and Kor speakers to see if what you're consuming is actually correct? The Korean culture and language are not yours to maliciously weaponize when you're trying to prove a 'point'. But like I said, I feel like this community needs a lot of cleaning up. I want you to enjoy your time in the fandom, but don't attack other people on false evidence or speculations. Take care of yourself and others. Don't let your ships make you into a monster.

And as always, LOVE all seven. SUPPORT all seven. Understand that BTS' bond is so pure and lovely and there's nothing that delusional stans and shippers can say/do to ruin that.

THANK YOU, TO ALL YOU ,💩heads WHO PRIORITISED YOUR PISSING CONTEST OVER AND ABOVE WHAT THE ARTIST YOU CLAIM TO LOVE, WANTED FOR HIS ALBUM ROLLOUT.

HE RELEASED JITB THE WAY HE WANTED TO LAST YEAR. EVERYTHING ROLLED OUT THE WAY HE WANTED IT TO ROLL OUT. BUT YOU REFUSED TO SEE IT!!!

YOU ONLY WANTED, WHAT YOU F****** WANTED. YOU DISREGARDED HIS CHOICES, HIS DECISIONS, HIS PLAN, HIS VISION – ALL FOR YOUR F****** SELFISH WANTS!!!

You f****** endlessly attacked Hobi’s autonomy and credibility as a human being and a veteran of 10+ years in the industry he dominates with his brothers. You attacked all of us ARMYs who stood by him and supported all of his plans, no matter what they were. Shame on those of you who made up think pieces and endless narratives of some perceived mistreatment, you had conjured up in your tiny little brains.

One year later you turn around and dare to say “misunderstanding” – F*** OFF with your misunderstanding!!! No one with half a brain could have misunderstood that he was doing exactly what he wanted to do!!!

YOU were the ones who willfully chose to “misunderstand” because YOU didn’t like what he wanted to do with his own f****** project!!! For YOU, JITB’s rollout didn’t measure up to YOUR expectations, measure up to what YOU wanted to happen!!! F*** knows why??? BECAUSE IT WASN’T EVEN YOUR PROJECT TO DIRECT IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!

YOU should be ashamed of yourselves. But I know that none of what I say will matter to you, because you won right?!?!? You got the physical you wanted so f*****g badly. YOU happily decided that Hobi didn’t know how to “defend” himself and how to get what he wanted from a company he is part owner of – SERIOUSLY, HOW DOES THAT EVEN MAKE THAT MAKE SENSE TO ANY OF YOU?!?!?!

ANYWAY – I hope all you f****** sheeple who went along with the narrative that this grown-ass man can’t make his own decisions, bought a copy of the album.

Now go stream Jack In The Box – Hope Edition!!!

laughed vs. acted funny: whose fault is it? cr. namuspromised

Idk if anyone thinks the same but I want the first twiyor kiss (if it ever happens) to be real. I mean not in some honey trap or we need to kiss to convince someone we are married. Not a "For the mission" kiss. I want it to be natural like idk, the two are just talking over coffee one evening , just talking about everything and nothing. Mostly about Anya and her shenanigans They laugh over something she said and then it just happens. Both of them lean into each other and it is the softest brushing of lips. A really quick one but it turns their world upside down.

Like for the first time since becoming a spy, Twilight doesn't know what to do. He is all breathless and his heart is going a mile a minute. He keeps trying to forthemissionify it, but he can't.

Your isn't faring any better either. She's dizzy with fear and excitement and confusion all at the same time. So she punches Loid and runs to her room.

And a sleeping Anya hearing the ruckus outside sleepily mumbles" mama and papa get so noisy when they kissy kiss"

and there is a "borf" in agreement.

i promise you'll feel better once you start to let go of the idea of being a good/bad person and just focus on doing your best to put more good into this world than bad.

if there's anything you've learned from my blog(s), it's that we can't put humans into neat little boxes. you're going to do marvelous things and save lives without even realizing it. you're going to fuck up terribly and leave a scar on someone, maybe forever. because we all do. you are not terribly or wonderfully unique in regards to that - but you are terribly and wonderfully unique in how irreplaceable your impact on someone else is.

for better or worse, no one else has the exact same knowledge, feelings, thoughts, worldview, support, experiences, and memories as you. you are the only person on this earth capable of wielding all that you are and directing it into creating a better world for all of us. all you can reasonably do is be aware of how your thoughts guide your actions, and what you choose to do. and that is far from the same thing as being utterly consumed by it.

and don't get too deep about it. you'd be surprised at how far just being authentically you and taking care of yourself can go. sometimes all you need to do for someone else is exist.

like i know we joke about yoongi being a rich bitch lecturing us all abt capitalism and it IS funny but only so far as you don’t listen to anything he says about his work and how it makes him feel. it’s such a theme in bangtan’s and especially rap line’s music generally; that, like, almost disgust with their own ambition because success in music DOES mean fame and riches. whether they like it or not, that’s how the world and the industry is structured. of course they benefit from that and i think they’re well aware but it’s possible for them to benefit from it AND for it to cause them harm. both truths can coexist. and i’m so glad that they talk about it so openly because it’s so important. yoongi saying in the doc “it would be so much easier if i was just a producer” because then he could just collect his check behind the scenes and move on. he never wanted fame, he never wanted to be obscenely rich - he just wanted enough for a meal AND a bus ticket home. the dreams of riches and fame came after bangtan became his dream, for better or for worse. idk idk idk i can’t be articulate about anything at the moment because i’m still processing but just. bangtan is so important. they’re everything to me. and they always will be

bisexualrapline

watching yoongi get praised by other artists and his friends and even just people on the street is so. like i know he has mixed feelings abt his impact and bangtan’s position in the industry and like the world stage. but he deserves every single word of praise uttered by anyone ever he deserves it so much.

As a person who is dying for book recommendations: What is a book you picked up randomly that you heard nothing about previously that blew you away?

I feel like we all have at least one hidden gem we stumbled upon.
