How's Jimin practicing dance in those baggy ass jeans 🤔🤔🤔

It was good to see his cute face though.

baggy pants are so comfortable and don't restrict his movements tho. and well, he's jimin, the same man who can dance effortlessly in anything—tight jeans, baggy pants, barefoot, in chelsea boots, in slippers/slides, and even in blindfold.

Kon, the first and last of the Nazca gods. Kon is an incredibly mysterious deity, his original worship being petrified in massive geoglyphs that coat the lands of Peru, formations that wordlessly tell an incomplete story. What is known was that he was heavily associated with the sun, sky and beasts, constantly being depicted floating in textiles. Kon’s reconstruction is extremely limited, only able to give the basic details of the god. Kon was most likely the primordial first god of the Paracas and Nazca, wordlessly he created the stars earth and moon. Kon embodied the sun, wind and rain, and was possibly the animate force of life itself. However when humanity scorned Kon and neglected his teachings he left the earth and returned to the sky.

Long after the Nazca, the Inca told their rendition of Kon’s story. Kon was born at the dawn of time, the son of the Incan sun god Inti. Kon was boneless, his form bent and stretched unimpeded by the limits of joints, sandstorms foretelling his appearance. Kon was blown into the world by a north breeze, and wordlessly he created the land seas and Man. Kon frequently brought humanity many gifts, with his staff he gave humans trophy heads and delicious bread and fruit, each time he arrived he brought life giving rain, his one request was for them to venerate him. The humans did as he asked, telling his grand stories and gracefully dancing to honor the deity. But as time went on, the people abandoned Kon, they withdrew their dances and stopped telling his stories. So in anger Kon took the waters he gave to them, the tide receded forcing the forests to become coastal deserts, and the rain stopped causing their crops to wilt. However the Inca state that another god had arrived, from the south the Ichma god Pachacamac challenged Kon. Kon fought desperately to protect his people despite their disrespect, but in the end Kon was defeated by Pachacamac, turning the people Kon had created into the beasts of the land. Despondent, Kon fled to the skies, never to be seen again.

—————

Kon originates from the Paracas, a culture from ancient Peru. The Paracas evolved into the Nazca people. Both of these groups are known for their huge geoglyphs, giant patterns carved into the surface of the earth. Though no text of their mythology survives, their geoglyphs show their clear reverence for their spirits.

Kon himself is believed to be represented in a number of these geoglyphs, the most well known is the “astronaut” geoglyph. Kon’s description given by the Inca align with these ancient glyphs, he was described as boneless and human like, he wielded a staff and wore a bird or feline mask. Birds and felines were greatly associated with Kon, often times being featured with the animals in geoglyphs and textiles. A feature greatly emphasized by worshippers was Kon’s giant eyes, one of his epithets meaning “the eyed god”.

The myths the Inca told of Kon were most likely localized versions of the original Paracas and Nazca myths, retold in order for it to fit into their established mythos. The appearance of Pachacamac supports this, as Pachacamac was originally the Ichma creator god, unlikely to have been worshipped by the Paracas or Nazca.

After the absorption of the Nazca and Ichma cultures into the Inca, their chief patron gods were introduced into Incan myth. Kon likely developed out of the same common ancestor as the Incan Viracocha and the Ichma Pachacamac, each one being regional branches that split off from each other. Sometimes the Inca referred to Kon as Cuniraya, also known as Cuniraya Huiracocha. Cuniraya was the result of conflation between Kon and Viracocha, as seen in the Huiracocha in Cuniraya, Cuniraya was seen as a manifestation of Viracocha as a trickster god who commonly transformed into a beggar to antagonize the other gods. Cuniraya was said to be the one who created the universe and all life by his worshippers. The connection between Kon and Viracocha is represented in Viracocha’s title of “Kontiki”, likely a result of ancient conflation.

THIS DANCE IS KICKASS

I mean seriously it's really, really good:

Also that studio is cool. But Jungkook's dancing is just awesome here. I feel like we don't get to see enough of him dancing alone. Hobi agrees.

Koo says he feels a little "heavy" and that's valid because he's been on break. We don't really know how much actual dancing (or eating) he's been doing. And we don't know WHEN this video was actually shot. So maybe he feels emotionally heavy, for reasons. Jimin reasons.

But I LOVE THIS. I wish he'd take off three layers of clothes so I could look at his knees and hips but overall he looks awesome and his comment to Hobi is priceless: "you really LIVE here" like... "you dance like this ALL THE TIME BRUH WTF EVEN" is more like what he meant and the man is not wrong. (ETA: he was also possibly clowning Hobi about living on Insta and he is not wrong about that either.)

I hope this means Koo is feeling better now that Jiminie is feeling better because dude looks GOOD. But of course the pathologicals have to come over and ruin the party so I get to address it like so:

NO HE IS NOT FLIRTING WITH NAIN FFS CHILDREN GET OUT MY INBOX AND GO PLAY IN YOUR OWN YARDS WHY YOU ALWAYS GOT TO BE IN MINE? I did not invite you over. But you've sure got a lot of time on your hands and bloggers to bother today. It's like you don't have jobs, or something. JUST LET PEOPLE LIVE OMG DAMN HE IS NOT HURTING YOU. Did you really think the man should be in bed sobbing even after his man said he was good and coming home soon? Really? NO YOU DIDN'T. No go away, eleventy-four anons (or two cosplaying anons who have a lot of time and fake accounts). I'm just blocking you today. I have dance posts to FINALLY FINISH FFS.
