Lee know is about to become the most popular and recognizable member of Stray Kids in South Korea, mark my words! Not only is he booked and busy, always on TV or on the radio, but he's also freaking beautiful and people will notice that.
Even though Chan, Felix, and Hyunjin are the most recognizable to international fans, it will probably be Lee Know who pulls korean fans by being on variety shows.

Happy native and indigenous peoples month! Make sure to thank ancient indigenous people for the cultivation of corn, squash, potatoes, tomatoes, and peppers.
Before European contact with the America's, Italians made sauces with carrots and beets, the Irish had no potatoes, and all Asian food lacked spice from peppers. Now, 3 out of 5 staple crops around the world were originally cultivated in the America's by indigenous peoples.

I feel this. The older I get, the more I consider building a tiny house of my own somewhere that's not too far from convince but still quite. Something just big enough to host a few friends for dinners or bon fires. Somewhere surrounded by natural beauty. Nothing too big or flashy, just cozy. I think I'm okay with living a small life too.
(And environmentally sustainable)
been thinkin about this lately and i think i want a small life. not a BAD life n not an ISOLATED life n not a CLOSED life but just. small. with defined boundaries. i want a job that will sustain me that doesn't require exhaustion to survive. i want a place to live that's big enough for me to choose every part of it; just enough shelf for mugs i love, just enough cabinet for a neat set of paints, just enough closet for clothes i actually like wearing not just ones i tolerate. i want to do little routines and make small batches of things and be a regular somewhere. i just want to have something contained and clear that's mine, mine, mine

I am not myself, I am merely a collection of other people's thoughts, observations, and opinions of me. Do I even exist if no one is around to see?

SKZ fanfic idea:
Newsies AU!
Listen, after disecting the musical theater influences on the Backdoor choreography and after Minho's selfies of him in a newsies hat, I just really need a Stray Kids Newsies AU.
Either a time period piece with them as literal news boys OR as the cast of the musical! Please! I need it!
Chan is the perfect Jack Kelley!!!
Suengmin IS Davey.
I.N. IS Les!
Han would be a perfect Cruchie.
Lee Know as Spot
Changbin as Romeo
Felix as Specs
Hyunjin as Race
I've been thinking about this a lot. I was in Newsies in University (dance captain) and I just think the energy of the musical is so on brand for Stray Kids! Literally newsies are stray kids! AAAAAHHHHHH
#stray kids#stray kids au#bang chan#lee know#han jisung#changbin#hyunjin#felix#seungmin#i.n#yang jeongin#newsies are stray kids change my mind

I only watched the first half of the the first episode of squid games and decided it wasn't really for me.
BUT, when I was at the bus terminal yesterday, these 2 highschoolers were playing the game that the main character plays in the train station (hitting each other's folded paper squares till they turn over) and it occurred to me that this show will probably be a HUGE deal. I even have elementary students playing the games in school.
Considering the show has only been out for a week, it's kind of crazy how fast it's penetrated the mainstream in Korea.
(For context, I teach English in rural Korea)

Oooof, when someone makes a whole ass 20 minute YouTube video about how bad they think NoEasy is and their most scathing point is that "the lyrics don't make sense and I can say that because I'm a Blackpink fan"
It's like, sis, you wouldn't be able to perform an adequate lyric review because you don't have any practice. Leave that to the professionals!
The lyrics are insane and it's not SKZ fault your monkey brain is incapable of deciphering the doubles meanings and workplay.
Like I actually cackle when people don't understand the whole "I'm not sorry, I'm dirty" lyric, like it's right in front of you! They play dirty and don't follow the rules. They spell it out in the song!!! Are you listening? That parts all in English too.
I have a headache...

Jisung being a vocal last week and an amazing rapper this week really fills a void in me.
I hope, again, that people wake up to the fact that this man is an absolute treasure that the whole kpop industry and fandom should bow down too!

If anyone ever asks you how bangtan sonyeongdan becomes BTS, here's how you can explain it:
Bangtan Sonyeondan in Hangul is 방탄소년단 and if you take the first 3 starting consonants in the first 3 syllables, its ㅂ ㅌ ㅅ which, when romanized, is BTS. The ㄴ ㄷ is left off, in my opinion, for aesthetics (imagine their name being BTSND... not as cute or pleasing to the ear/eyes)
So yeah, understanding Hangul really helps understand kpop on a deeper level, even outside of lyrics.

Wow, all it really takes is being with someone who kisses your forehead and tells you that your beautiful and kind to realize that every person you've ever been with before was either selfish or just mean.

Han Jisung is literally one of the most talented idols in all of Kpop! His vocals GO OFF and his rap is amazing! He can dance really well too! Oh and he writes and produces? Like, he really is something special.
Thank you Kingdom for, at the very least, showcasing this boys insane talents!

Bullying
I can't believe I have to talk about this again, but here I go.
So some ILAND bs is being spewed again on Twitter and to absolutely no ones shock, people are dragging K like he's public enemy #1. Recap, he's not.
So, how does that relate to bullying? Well, let me tell you. People's #1 complaint about K is that he "bullied a minor" which isn't true in the least!
First, let's define bullying. Bullying is described as REPEATED, TARGETTED harassment or violence. Last I checked, K never once singled someone out and repeatedly harassed them.
Second, K did get angry at Niki but for good reason. Niki wasn't acting like a team player. K acted as the more experienced adult in the room and gave Niki guidance. That guidance was pointed and strongly worded, but thats not a bad thing. Niki then proceeded to ignore that warning and do his thing in front of sungduk. And guess what! Niki got scolded AGAIN for the SAME THING K warned him about and then K also got scolded as well because he was leader. So yeah, Niki needed to be scolder and K had to take on that responsibility because he was the leader.
And also guess what! K and Niki are fine! They love each other like brothers. Niki cried and hugged K like his life depended on it till the very end. You have no right going around accusing K of being a bully and victimizing Niki when neither of them have issues! You're fabricating reality to fit your own narrative and it's not okay. GET OVER IT!
Y'all are projecting your insecurities onto all the other Ilanders, going around posting everyone was terrified of K. Yeah no, they loved K! It's just you that would have been afraid of someone older and more talented than you showing up and showing off. It's not K's fault that he's talented, attractive, tall, and athletic.
#oof yall need to back off of K#literally half the issues you have with him are MADE UP#just admit that you are intimidated by him and go#stop protecting and victimizing ilanders who love him#im glad he didnt debut in enhypen because that fandom is the worst ive ever seen#and ive been a kpop fan for 10 years
