-If you aren't fan of certain hair styles, certain styles of piercings or tattoos in general, why force yourself(or guilt trip other fans) to like them even if someone in a group you stan has them(even for non kpop celebs)? Obviously you can't change anything about it. It would also be wrong to harass people over it on either side. I just don't think there's anything wrong with saying you aren't a fan of those things in reference to celebs you like. We know that should treat idols, actors etc just like we would any other person outside the industry, but will trip over ourselves to support something we aren't a fan of, just because they're celebs? Its really not worth it. I also understand people are worried about being too negative in the current climate, which is understandable so idk. There needs to be a balance. You're allowed to have personal preferences like that, just like the people you stan. It doesn't mean you're automatically being hateful or an anti. -On a similar note, I think certain Korean sites completely removing comments is no where close to solving the issues they have. I don't think its even putting a band-aid on their problems.It's not possible to remove everything from every site with an article, or set out to sue everybody with critical, rumors or negative comments. Or even having fans with big social media accounts creating narratives to control is not helping anything either. Something else has to be done. -I think people get a little too obsessed with plastic surgery 'research', to the point where they start seeing it in people who haven't had any. Like instead of taking it as standard inane entertainment gossip, they go overboard. Sometimes becoming severely distraught or angry after being corrected about this person and that person not having any surgeries. I think at that point its better to just take a break from the topic. -Regarding the Final Fantasy 7 remake, people are going overboard dog-piling on other fans with any tiny criticism people have with the demo recently. Even people who are basically repeating similar things as other fans have(like how the boss battle throws a lot at you even though the characters give you instructions it), are being attacked. It's not that serious. It's turning people off from interacting with the fandom with the unnecessary gatekeeping. Just keep enjoying the demo and the game when it releases.

Unpop opinion about Parasite 2019, don't click if you don't want spoilers

I used to eat them as a kid, but as I've gotten older I just don't like them at all for some reason.

Love both, but burgers. Those have always been my favorite go-to fast food.

The most recent episode of Mr. Robot was the weakest of the series(so far, hopefully it won't happen again). It was unnecessary, coming across like a niche fanfiction from a small part of fandom come to life. Not that there hasn't been filler episodes before, but this recent one entirely lacked what makes the show great in comparison to other filler eps. There's also the fact that one half of that pairing shown overstayed her welcome plot-wise a long time ago. There's no need to continue having focused episodes on her, so I'm not too sure what the writers are thinking. Then the other half of the pairing was out of character for the purpose of this 'ship'. She was one of my favorite character's before and the writers messed up a bit with her. Overall, the ep felt like a waste of an hour. Which is disappointing for an amazing show that's currently in its last season.

No, maybe only 2 or 3 times a week at most I'll have some with my breakfast. It'll be pretty rare for me to have it every morning nowadays, but it has happened in the past.

There has always been too much of an obsession with owning expensive art supplies over years. Sometimes there really isn't much of a difference between certain student and professional grade traditional art supplies(i.e if you replace a bullet nib with a brush nib for inexpensive alcohol-based markers, you'll get the same results as the brush tipped copics). Sometimes the only difference between the two is that with the expensive product you're paying for the brand name and advertisement costs. It's like paying for national brand food all the time, when your cheaper private label/store brand is the same or better. There is also the case of people seeing buying the inexpensive stuff as; 'needing to work your way up after using beginner products', in the same vein of an artist struggle. Something that HAS to be done and seen. It's a badge of honor to complain about certain inexpensive brands as being crappy, but your new expensive supplies are the most perfect in every way(even when they aren't sometimes) to show how you've leveled up as an artist. Another issue; I think its strange that whenever a popular artist youtuber compares cheaper supplies with expensive ones they backhand compliment the former with, "wow these are actually amazing! You can get great results with this xyz cheaper product. I can't tell the difference between the two...but the xyz expensive brand is still much better :)". It's like which is it, you got the same result(sometimes a better one), so how is the cheaper brand worse?? That's why people need to take their word with a grain of salt, use their eyes and common sense. Some artists may have been given the expensive brand for free to use(i.e a low key brand ambassador), or they don't want buyers remorse after spending so much on those expensive materials so they're being delusional on purpose. It is possible to like that particular brand better, but whenever they phrase a review a that way I can't help but be suspicious. That isn't to say there aren't art supplies made with fillers that reduce its quality.Or that there's a certain supply in your collection that compliments a different brand than you're used to ect. Its not always cheaper brands that can suffer from those occurrences. Also, it is fun to try new supplies every so often, cheap or not. I've owned samples of expensive products that I've liked, but sometimes enjoyed my art more after coming across their cheaper counterparts years later on. You may get something from the cheaper brand that makes your art look better, than if you used the expensive one. Technique and learning to use the tool that compliments your art is the most important thing too. Just do what you need to personally for your art, ignoring the outside art community drama/politics/status quo.

The mv was so different from what I was expecting. The choreo was amazing, and their outfits were too. Loved the risk taken with the rock elements within the song. Overall I think 'Undercover' is a great song but I still have the other titles as my fave over it at the moment. Haven't listened to the rest of the album yet.

-I don't think people should be taken seriously when they blame their age group, gender, college level ect for dumb or illegal things they or someone they're a fan of does. At the end of the day, you're only responsible for your own behavior. So you can't keep using the 'everybody does xyz' lie/excuse to make what's been done acceptable to avoid accountability or jail time. -I'm ready for the trend of people cheering on self-destructive behavior as 'self care'(when its obviously the complete opposite) or 'relatable enough to emulate', to end. Life is hard enough, and some people are really too easily influenced by the worst things. Which then leads to making life even harder for themselves and those who care about them. It really has gotten worse over the years with social media and people constantly broadcasting their self-destructive habits or choices. Sometimes I know its done as a cry for help(and people miss that point frequently for entertainment purposes), other times people want it validated as conventional instead of getting help. Overall it gets more disturbing as the days go by.

I'm really excited to see more of the direction they go in~ I love the photos out so far.
