me when someone replies to a thing from months/years ago like !!!!!!!!!!

One thing that I noticed about Yuu reminiscing about Chiaki, is how those memories used to have "specks of light" on them, giving them a dreamy, kind of romantic feeling (in my opinion)

But the last time he was reminiscing about Chiaki, those memories no longer have specks of light on them.

One could argue that Hatori is in those memories, so of course Yuu isn't going to be very fond of them. However, even his past memories with Hatori used to have specks of light, because Chiaki was there.

I really like how it cements the fact that Yuu has moved on and no longer has those kind of feelings for Chiaki. I feel like Yuu struggles a lot with his feelings and ends up feeling gross with himself, so it's really nice how the visual elements convey what he's truly feeling 💕

Netflix: suggests Ronja the Robber's Daughter show based on the old Swedish Novel by Astrid Lindgren

Me: "Oh, my God! That is so cool that a little bit of Scandinavian literature has come to Netflix!"

Netflix show: one of the cast members is black

Me: "Okay, slightly unrealistic since this takes place in the early middle ages in Sweden, but it doesn't really affect the story so whatever*

Netflix show: Ronja has blonde hair

Me: "... ok, now you're just trying to make me mad."

I think a.i.voice vy1 and vy2 actually look like them, like I can look at the designs and see all of the popular existing takes on them in them, just condensed down to the most neutral those characters could look. in my mind the a.i.voice vys serve as kind of a base to the other versions and I actually like that approach to giving characters marketed as blank slates "canon" human designs

I've been disabled for almost 29 years. Here's what I've learned.

Tablets sink and capsules float. Separate out your tablets and capsules when you go to take them. Tip your head down when taking capsules and up when taking tablets. Liquigels don't matter, they kinda stay in the middle of whatever liquid is in your mouth.

If your pill tastes bad, coat it with a bit of butter or margarine. I learned this from my mom, who learned it from a pharmacist.

Being in pain every day isn't normal. Average people experience pain during exceptional moments, like when they stub their toe or jam their finger in a door, not when they sit cross-legged.

Make a medical binder. Make multiple medical binders. I have a small one that comes with me to appointments and two big ones that stay at home, one with old stuff and one with more recent stuff.

Find your icons. Some of mine include Daya Betty (drag queen with diabetes), Stef Sanjati (influencer with Waardenburg syndrome and ADHD), and Hank Green (guy with ulcerative colitis who... does a bunch of stuff). They don't have to be disabled in the same way as you. They don't even have to be real people. Put their pictures up somewhere if you want; I've been meaning to decorate my medical binders with pictures of my icons.

Take a bin, box, bag, basket, whatever and fill it with items to cope with. This can be stuff for mentally coping like colouring books or play clay or stuff for physically coping like pain medicine or physio tape.

Decorate your shit! My cane for at home has a plushie backpack clip hanging from the end of the handle and my cane for going places is covered in stickers. All of my medical binders have fun scrapbooking paper on the outside. Sometimes, I put stickers and washi tape on my inhalers and pill bottles. I used my Cricut to decorate my coping bin with quotes from my icons, like "I've seen enough of Ba Sing Se" and "I need you to be angrier with that bell".

If a flare-up is making you unable to eat or keep food down, consider going to the ER. A pharmacist once told me that since my eye flares can make me so nauseous that I cannot eat, then I need to go to the hospital when that happens.

Cola works wonders for nausea. I have mini cans of Diet Pepsi in my coping bin.

Shortbread is one of the only things I can eat when nauseous. Giant Tiger sells individually-wrapped servings of shortbread around Christmas or the British import store sells them year-round. I also keep these in my coping bin.

Unless it violates a pain contract or something, don't be afraid to go behind your doctor's back to get something they are refusing you. I got my cardiologist referral by getting in with a different NP at my primary care clinic than who I usually saw. I switched from Seroquel to Abilify by visiting a walk-in.

If you have a condition affecting your abdomen in some way (GI issues, reproductive problems, y'know) then invest in track pants that are too big. I bought some for my laparoscopy over a year ago and they've been handy for pelvic pain days, too. I've also heard loose pants are good for after colonoscopies.

Do whatever works, even if it's weird. I've sat on the floor of the Eaton Centre to take my pills. I've shoved heating pads down my front waistband to reach my uterus.

High-top Converse are good for weak ankles. I almost exclusively wear them.

You can reuse your pill bottles for stuff. I use my jumbo ones to store makeup sponges and my long skinny ones to hold a travel-size amount of Q-Tips.

Just because your diagnostics come back with nothing, it doesn't mean nothing is wrong. Maybe you were checking the wrong thing, or the diagnostic tool wasn't sensitive enough. I have bradycardia episodes even though multiple cardiac tests caught nothing. I probably have endometriosis even though my gynecologist didn't see anything.

You can bring your comfort item to appointments, and it's generally a green flag when someone talks to you about it. I brought a Squishmallow turkey (named Ulana) to my laparoscopy and they had her wearing my mask when I woke up. I brought a Build-A-Bear cat (named Blinx) to another procedure and a nurse told me that everyone in the hall on the way to the procedure room saw him and were talking about how cute he was. Both of those ended up being positive experiences and every person who talked to me about my plushies was nice to me. If you don't feel comfortable having it visible to your provider during the appointment, you can hide it in your bag and just know it's there, or if you're in a video appointment, you can hold it below frame in your lap.

Get a small bucket, fill it with stuff, and stick it in your bed (if you have room for it). I filled a bucket with Ensure, juice boxes, oatmeal bars, lotion, my rescue inhaler, etc. in October 2023 in anticipation of my laparoscopy and I still have it in my bed as of January 2025.

If your disability impacts your impulse control (e.g. ADHD, bipolar disorder), you should consider setting limits around your spending -- no more than X dollars at a time, nothing online unless it's absolutely necessary, and so on. Or, run these purchases by someone you trust before committing to them; I use my BFF groupchat to help talk sense into myself when I buy stuff.

Feel free to add on what you've learned about disability!

Your Ideal Partner In Your Destiny Matrix Chart

Hi! I haven't been there for a while, 'cause I needed some sort of a break. Thanks for your understanding in advance. We can go further with spiritual content now. This time, I'm going to make a post about how and where you can look for your ideal partner in your Destiny Matrix chart. If you're single and do not exactly know which type of partner is the right one for you, I hope that this post might help you in any way, shape or form. But as always, take things as they resonate with you, do not force anything if it doesn't fully align with you. So, without a further delay, let's get into it.

If you did read my first post (the intro) about the Matrix of Destiny, you might know that there is a love line which is formed by three numbers and it talks about our relationships style, its struggles, partner etc. The second number in this love line is a number which is placed the closest to the heart icon/emoji, represents our ideal partner and the characteristics of our partner.

Here is the example of that. I marked the adequate number with the black color, so you can see it clearly. This is my Destiny Matrix chart and the number I have close to the heart icon/emoji is number 7, so my partner could have characteristics of this number and arcana, which is The Chariot in this case. I hope it's understandable.

I'm going to describe each numbers and possible characteristics of your partner now.

1 (The Magician) - If you have number 1 close to the heart icon/emoji, then it means that your partner may have natural leaderships qualities. Your partner might be confident, independent and even powerful. He or she might also inspire you to live your own life however you want and will definitely give you freedom. With The Magician card being present here, you can basically manifest any partner you want, 'cause this card is about manifestations.

2 (The High Priestess) - This partner may likely be an emotional and empathetic type of person. You might seek for a partner who can take care of your and who wants to build a family with you, since number 2 is ruled by the Moon, which does represent family. Your partner might be in tune with the feminine side, no matter if this person is male of female.

3 (The Empress) - Your partner might be very beautiful and good-looking, even wealthy. This partner may also be creative and interested in artistic fields. You can experience a lot of joyful moments and you can have fun a lot with your partner in general. You may find comfort, pleasure and even luxury in your relationships.

4 (The Emperor) - There is a strong masculine energy in this arcana. Your partner could be a natural leader and logical, which are the characteristics of a divine masculine energy. I wouldn't be surprised if you married some kind of a CEO or a manager with this arcana. This partner might also be controlling, so be aware of that.

5 (The Hierophant) - Another arcana which radiates some kind of masculine energy. This arcana is mostly about traditions, conformity and religion, so your partner might have a traditional and religious beliefs and might be someone who likes the order. Number 5 is associated with communication, which means that your partner might be communicative and adventurous, obviously.

6 (The Lovers) - This arcana is basically about relationships and love, so having this arcana in your love line could be a jackpot for you, but take it as it resonates, please. Your partner may give you emotional support and may buy you a lot of expansive things to impress you. The communication with your partner might be on point, unless your partner is negative and judgmental.

7 (The Chariot) - Your partner is likely to be strong-willed, ambitious and disciplined with an active lifestyle. There is also a spiritual side of your partner, since number 7 represents spirituality. The Chariot card is related to Cancer sign, so you can have a family with your partner. This also tells me that your partner should have a balance between spiritual and material world.

8 (Justice) - Your partner might be a balanced, organized and responsible individual, 'cause number 8 is ruled by Saturn. He or she could be a lawyer too. Your relationships may be dealt with a lot of conflict, aggression or you may simply deal with karmic relationships. You might need a partner who can calm things down and put things together.

9 (The Hermit) - This arcana is all about solitude, introspection and reflection and it might be hard to have this arcana in your love line. If you struggle with your relationships or you constantly feel lonely, know that it's quite normal with this arcana. Your ideal partner might be someone who is wise, mature, compassionate, empathetic and who can guide you through spiritual world. It can also indicate starting relationships later in life.

10 (Wheel of Fortune) - This position might be very lucky in terms of your relationships. You can basically hang out with almost everyone, but don't always rely on luck when it comes to your relationships. Meeting your ideal partner might seem like some fated event you cannot control. Your relationships may also seem like cycles and if your relationship is negative or toxic, that cycle needs to be ended.

11 (Strength) - Your partner might be strong, courageous, energetic and optimistic, according to the Strength card. Number 11 is a very spiritual number and is associated with intuition. It takes courage and accountability to follow intuition. I sense that you might need a partner that you can count on. Watch our for an aggressive nature of your partner.

12 (The Hanged Man) - This tells me that your partner could be caring, creative, smart, even selfless. You might need the type of partner who will take care of you, support you, sacrifice for you and who'll give you different perspective of life. Be careful not to be too attached to your partner and to make some boundaries in your relationships.

13 (Death) - Your relationships might be transformative period of your life where you can shift your mentality and a view of your whole life. Your partner might come across as mysterious, unpredictable or even shady. This person could also be adaptable into almost every situation. Make sure to hang out with people you can change and progress with.

14 (Temperance) - Your partner might be balanced, emotional and mature. This can be an indicator of a normal and moderate kind of relationships. Sometimes you should be patient for your partner to come in. This partner might have an artistic or healing abilities and can inspire or help you to see the bright side of life.

15 (The Devil) - This arcana can indicate having a toxic relationships and being with over materialistic partner. Your partner might be someone who embraces his or her dark side. You can date someone who deals with addictions, who is charismatic, energetic and passionate. There can be a strong bondage between you and your partner as well.

16 (The Tower) - Your partner and overall relationships might be so chaotic that you can experience whether mental breakdown or spiritual awakening. This number/arcana represents an intense partner who may go into the extremes (violence, aggression, attachments) or a spiritual and intelligent partner who may lead you into the spiritual growth.

17 (The Star) - After previous arcana, where everything falls apart, then comes a healing journey, according to The Star card. You might experience more positive things with your partner or in overall relationships. Your partner is likely charming, sensitive or even popular person everyone knows about. You can share some unique moments with your partner.

18 (The Moon) - You may date someone who is deeply imaginative, mysterious and intuitive. This arcana represents illusions, which means that your partner might be in his or her own world a lot or you can fantasize about your relationships a lot. Your partner might also be creative and artistic, which relates to this arcana.

19 (The Sun) - I feel that you need a partner who will give you joy and positivity into your life. Your relationships could be filled with optimism and celebration, meaning that you may go to the parties with your partner a lot. There's a chance for you to have a happy and fulfilled relationships and you can benefit from your relationships, but it can indicate being depressive after breaking up.

20 (Judgment) - This arcana relates to the family and ancestors, so you may need a type of partner who wants to build a family with you. Your partner might be spiritual, intuitive, mystical who may guide you to live your life differently, but this partner could also be very judgmental to you. It can indicate being in the karmic relationships.

21 (The World) - Your partner might be an open-minded individual who has a natural diplomatic abilities and who can hang out with people easily. This arcana may indicate having a partner from abroad or from a more different culture than yours. You could meet your partner in your work environment, but it doesn't mean that will be the case of everyone.

22 (The Fool) - I sense that your partner might be spontaneous, adventurous, explorative and free-spirited. You could experience really fun and unpredictable moments with your partner. Your relationships might seem like an adventure, basically. The problem is that this could lead into disorganization and irresponsibility into your life, especially if you're someone who needs some kind of a structure in your own life.

Okay, I think that would be all for today. I hope you enjoyed it and learned something new. For me, it was great to come back after not posting anything for a week. Comment what you want to see next on my astrology blog if you want to. I wish you all had a beautiful day ahead. See you!

Best regards,

Paky McGee

buddie's first time cinematography. walk with me here. cast your minds back if you will to season 6 episode 6 tomorrow aka henren begins. if your mind isn't there already, please take it to henren's first time scene. the camera pans down to their shoes for network television reasons of propriety. now, cast your minds forward to the not so distant future. buddie are canon. they've been on their first date. they come home, they're in the kitchen, eddie grabs them two beers from the fridge. it's tense, loaded, fragile. they're both waiting for it to break. to escape this equilibrium from when they were only friends. buck breaks. eddie breaks. it doesn't matter who breaks first. their beers are discarded on the side, not even half drunk, for a kiss that's seven years of waiting plus the duration of their first real date. it gets hot and heavy fast. they're stumbling out of the kitchen as they're fumbling each other's jackets and shirts off. the camera does not follow them. instead it pans slowly back to the beers on the counter. we hear the bedroom door slam. a bead of condensation rolls down the beer bottle. fade to black. a metaphor. them putting down these icons of their normal bro hangouts to allow themselves to touch each other the way they've always wanted. also. cum.

GUILT

(HSR MEN X READER) (ANGST)

(GN!READER) 

Synopsis: You and Sunday were dating but then you overhear him talking to those who work with him about how you’re just a pawn for his games.

SUNDAY:

Soft footsteps echoed as you walked through the halls of where your beloved boyfriend Sunday lived. Though a feeling of unknown dread crawled onto you as if warning you of something soon happening.

Click. Click. Click.

Your eyes lit up as you heard your boyfriend speaking to those who worked under him and you couldn't help but eavesdrop. The curiosity of how he acted when he wasn’t around you dwelling in your mind.

“It’s simple. I’m using them. They are just one step closer for me to get closer to my goals.” Sunday said with a calm smile, hands gently tracing his desk looking down at the men who were talking to him.

You were confused.

What were they talking about?

“Sir..are you sure? Aren’t they attached?”

“My so-called significant other is definitely attached. Though that benefits me. Much. More. Easier. To manipulate.”

You paled.

He was using you.

Tears bubbled up in your eyes and you held your hand to your mouth to stifle any noises of sadness that were threatening to come out.

Hitching and turning on your shoe you make a dash for it unaware that Sunday caught a glimpse through the slit of the door open with his eyes. His wings twitched in surprise and soon lowered as a disgusting feeling of shame hit him.

It was an oddity for Sunday.

“Oh dear.” He murmured out making his way out to find you.

Synopsis: Aventurine and you dated but when he bets you in a game everything goes downhill.

AVENTURINE:

You catch your boyfriend, the renowned gambler betting as usual. You told him his hobby wasn't good. But as if that would stop him. Eventually you gave up and just let him do what he wanted despite worry filling you each time he pushed a chip forward with his iconic trademark smirk. 

“Babe..” You murmur out unease written all over your face.

“Oh! Hey darling~ this man just won’t seem to give up..even after I basically drained his savings. He’s penniless and now putting bets on things he doesn't even own!” Aventurine chuckled, holding his head amused.

“Maybe you should stop? It's getting intense, no.?” You worriedly whisper out.

“Oh no no no sweetheart. Once you go in. You can’t come out.”

“Huh?” You fluster.

“In gambling! What were you thinking of?” His smirk grew and became more toothly as you spluttered but it soon died down as Aventurine noticed that the man he was gambling with was slowly earning his chips back.

“You pull up a tough fight.” Aventurine spoke and you just knew he was going to pull an impulsive move. 

“Seems my chips have vanished. What a shame. Yet I do not intend to lose. I bet..my darling sweetheart right here.” 

You flinched at his words staring at him with a ‘did you really just say that’’ look making Aventurine smack back into reality.

“Oh..doll wait I didn’t mea-”

He got cut off by you walking off.

Ping! New message!

(AVENTURINE HAS SENT $1,000,000)

Synopsis: Dating Dr. Ratio was nice. Though he puts more time with other matters, neglecting you.

DR RATIO:

You hadn’t seen your boyfriend Veritas in a while because of him either studying, working, teaching others, or doing something other than hanging out with you. You're aware of his passion to join the Genius Society but he can work on that while hanging out with you too right?

You felt left out.

So you decided to make your way to his office excited to see him but also a bit nervous due to the thought of him brushing you away to work on something else.

You knocked.

“Come in.” You hear his British pompous voice making you crack a small smile not hearing it in a while.

“Veritas..” You open the door smiling but it broke as you saw him writing down something in his notebook not bothering to spare a glance at you.

“What is it? I’m quite busy.” He whispered out, still looking engrossed in his work.

“Do..you want to hang out? It’s been a while and I’ve been worried about you overworking yourself. And I miss seeing you.” You blush at your own words staring at him.

Veritas sighed, dropping his pen and rubbing his temples.

“Dear how many times must I have to tell you that I am busy?” Annoyance is apparent in his tone making your eyes droop in defeat.

“Oh. Sorry. I just wanted to ask..since it's been such a long time.” Another sigh left Veritas as he ran a hand through his hair and finally made eye contact with you.

“I’m doing work at the moment so please leave me to it.” He picked up his pen again taking a glance at you but his eyes widened as he saw your vulnerable expression of defeat. You nodded softly and shut the door leaving.

Veritas stared at the door, his heart clenching in what he just did. Guilt poured onto it.

“My lord.” He murmured holding his now aching head.

"i've always wanted something simple..."

「 tws + notes: no tws, potentially ooc, unedited as BAWLS, what do you mean it's been a while since i've last written, domestic (kinda), lowkey heavily implied romance,,,, blame the spirit of valentine's day (。﹏。) 」

「 gn!reader, can be platonic or romantic relationship <3 」

↳ ft. bruce wayne, dick grayson, jason todd, and tim drake

author's note: yeah so... i'm still dc rotted. here are little things that i just find cute つ﹏⊂ <33 gonna keep it 120% w/ u, life is BUSY!!!! but we ball regardless :D you know im gonna find time to write my superhero fanfics anyways >:3

▸ BRUCE loves when you wear his clothes. simple but recognizable, his clothes become a silent way of saying "they're with me." and considering that most of the pieces in his wardrobe that are downright iconic, almost all of gotham knows who's jacket you're wearing when you step out in it.

he's not insecure by any means, and it isn't quite a display of possessiveness— but rather, affection and devotion. you're special to bruce, and even if it's through subtle means, he's more than happy to show it.

▸ DICK likes to have you within reach. no reason in particular, he says, but you know that's not quite true. maybe he's secretly a little ashamed of being so clingy. either way, he wants (or needs) you to be close to him.

it doesn't really matter to him how he achieves this either. whether it's his hand in yours, his arm around your shoulders, his hand resting on the small of your back, or his arm linked with yours— he's happy as ever. if you're a fast walker and by some miracle, you weren't already holding hands, dick's not beyond tugging your shirt from behind to reel you back in.

"are you trying to escape me? i'm wounded." dramatic.

▸ JASON loves helping you run errands. to be completely honest, he would be content doing just about anything as long as you're around, but there's something special about being the one that you drag around for mundane things like buying groceries or getting gas.

he also loves to be helpful to you. always offering to get the things off higher shelves that you just can't reach, always getting out the car first to pump your gas— there's just something about that shy but pleased smile of yours that makes doing little things for you so much more rewarding. and, yeah, it's silly but jason's heart practically leaps out his chest when you thank him by planting a little kiss on his cheek.

▸ TIM loves to take naps with you. he values the time that he has with you, and of course, would much rather spend it conscious— but there's something particularly special about being able to rest at your side. it's a declaration of trust from him— and there's an undeniable tenderness he feels when he realizes that he's able to let his guard down for once.

except... tim doesn't notice how frequent this habit has become. he's gotten so used to napping with you, that if he's feeling like he's been awake for too long, he'll hunt you down just to get some rest. your plans of reading peacefully on the couch are thwarted— prepare for him to wrap his arms around you while he shifts to lay his head on your chest. no words, no questions— guess you'll have to set aside whatever you're doing now.

🎧ྀི♪⋆.✮Pile 1: Hi pile 1! You know, your style is a powerful way to express yourself to the world, and if I've learned anything, it's that there's nothing more attractive than authenticity pile 1. But I feel like many don't get it. The key here is to focus on what makes you feel powerful, comfortable, and completely yourself. Maybe you've gone through times where you thought you had to follow the rules of "good taste" or the latest trend to fit in, but the real magic begins when you start letting go of those expectations and allow yourself to dress for yourself, not for others. Have you noticed how there's something incredibly attractive about people who wear their style with confidence? That doesn't come from following the rules, but from finding what makes you shine. And I don't just mean clothes, but how you wear them, how you stand, how you move. It's that energy you project when you feel good about yourself. So start experimenting. If you have those pieces that make you feel amazing, wear them without hesitation! Don't worry if you think they're too bold or different. If they make you feel confident and radiant, then they're the right thing to do. If your heart beats faster in a specific piece, that's the sign. Personal style isn't just an outfit choice; it's a way to assert your confidence and power. It's like a constant reminder that you're taking control of your life. People can tell when someone feels powerful, and that's what makes your style truly "iconic." It doesn't have to be perfect or conform to what's in fashion; all you need is to be true to yourself. So start dressing from the heart, not from external expectations, and you'll see how the world responds to that unique energy you radiate.

🎧ྀི♪⋆.✮Pile 2: Hi Pile 2! FIRST OF ALL, how do you feel about yourself? Beyond what you see in the mirror, beyond the things you might like to change. Do you really feel good about yourself? Because the glow-up that matters most isn't just the one you see on the surface, but the one that comes from within, the one that makes you feel more at peace, more connected, more you. The glow-up starts in your heart, in your mind, in the way you speak to yourself every day. If you want to shine, you need to heal, because when you do, the light that comes out of you is not only reflected on your face, but in everything you do. I know it can be difficult at times. Maybe you've carried insecurities or doubts for a long time, but I promise you that the path to the inner glow-up isn't a destination, it's a journey. It's starting to do things for yourself that make you feel good, that nourish you. It might mean meditating, reading, surrounding yourself with supportive people, exercising, or simply taking some time to listen to your body and what it truly needs. The important thing here is that it's not about achieving an "ideal" version of yourself, but rather embracing who you are right now and working on being the best version of yourself, without external pressure. It's about accepting that you don't have to be perfect, but you can be a better version of yourself every day. And that internal work, those small decisions to take care of your mind, body, and soul, are what will truly make you shine. It may sound cliché, but self-esteem doesn't come overnight. It's a process. It's about giving yourself permission to make mistakes, to rest, to be human. And it's also about knowing that, although challenges and insecurities exist, you always have the ability to move forward, to reinvent yourself, and to rediscover yourself. Remember that a glow-up isn't just physical; it's something that comes from within, a vibration that is generated when you are aligned with yourself. And when you begin to connect with your true essence, you not only feel more radiant, but you also feel more at peace. That inner peace is what truly makes everything else fall into place: your style, your attitude, your relationships. Don't rush. Don't compare yourself to others. Every day is a new opportunity to choose yourself, to invest in yourself, to begin healing from within. You deserve to shine, so give yourself the chance to do so!

🎧ྀི♪⋆.✮Pile 3: Hi pile 3! You know that no matter how much you change on the outside, or how many new outfits you wear, if your attitude isn't aligned with that powerful energy you want to project, everything else feels a little empty. Attitude is what truly makes you iconic. And believe me, it has nothing to do with being arrogant or putting on a fake front. It's about having confidence in yourself, walking with confidence, and showing the world that you're ready for whatever comes. But here's the trick: it's not something you achieve overnight. An iconic attitude is built over time, through small daily decisions and moments when you choose to be strong, even if your heart trembles. It's normal to sometimes doubt yourself, to feel afraid, but true attitude lies in how you get up after each fall, how you face challenges with a smile, and how you keep going without letting difficulties define you. What an icon you pile 3, love your energy. You may not always feel like you're ready to take the world by storm, and that's okay. It's not about being in a constant state of "superpower." Iconic attitude has a lot to do with being able to stay calm when everything seems chaotic, staying true to yourself even when circumstances change. It's that inner stillness that allows you to respond gracefully to whatever comes your way, rather than reacting impulsively. Remember, being iconic doesn't mean being perfect, it doesn't mean being invincible, it means being true to yourself no matter what others think. Because when you are authentic and genuine, when you are unafraid to show your true self, that is the spark that makes your attitude shine. It's not about being "the best," it's about being the most authentic version of yourself. So, if you ever feel insecure or wonder if you have what it takes, remember: your attitude is all you need. Act with confidence, with grace, and with a heart full of courage. When you align with that inner energy, everything else begins to fall into place. I believe in you pile 3 :).

Your Venus Sign as an Iconic Female K-pop Visual

Hello everyone! Here's another fun post for y'all! Let me know which female you got in the comments down below! Also please know that the Venus sign won't be the idol's actual Venus sign (if it is then it's coincidental). But this is based off of my own observations.

Aries Venus - CL

CL (2NE1) is the perfect example of the Aries Venus. Her fashion style has always been bold, raw, unapologetic, and was one of the first female idols to fully own a "bad bitch" aesthetic. 2NE1 invented the "Girl Crush" concept but CL fully owned it. The main colors of most of her outfits consist of black, red, gold, and silver colors or jewelry. She can rock lace, leather, fur, or multi-patterned clothing. She absolutely rocks avant-garde and streetwear fashion. She has always been full of confidence and swagger, which makes it easier for her to rock those type of clothing.

Taurus Venus - Wonyoung

Wonyoung (IVE) has a fashion sense and visuals that are so Venusian to me. She always seems comfortable in her own skin. No matter what she's doing, she always looks composed and unbothered. Her fashion is elegant, fairy-like, and classy. Her signature style consists of ruffled skirts or dresses, lace or plain stockings, satin, Mary Jane shoes, ribbons, bows, vintage button up shirts or sweaters, and silver jewelry. She has innate and effortless beauty. She doesn't have to chase attention because she naturally gets it. She is always glowing and a true divine feminine.

Gemini Venus - Soyeon

The main thing I love about Soyeon (I-dle) is how she fits any concept that I-dle does. Whether the era consists of Y2K, burlesque, or streetwear fashion, she wears it with ease. She has changed her hairstyles many times as well. She can pull off anything and wears pretty much anything, so because of this I don't know what signature style to give her. She is like a fashion chameleon. She is also very charismatic, confident, and unpredictable.

Cancer Venus - Mina

Mina (Twice) has been seen in different types of fashion, but the one that suits her best is her soft, elegant, Old-Hollywood style of clothing. With this style, she usually wears satin or vintage style dresses, stiletto heels, long boots, lace, silver jewelry, or a casual blazer and skirt set. It's similar to Wonyoung's, but their vibes are different. In my opinion, Mina's beauty is more Cancerian because she looks and feels more gentle and mysterious, with soft expressions that pull you in. She is graceful with a dreamy aura and gentle movements.

Leo Venus - Jennie

Jennie (Blackpink) is a great example of a Leo Venus because she radiates main character energy without effort. Ever since she debuted in Blackpink, she has been seen as the it girl of her generation and has always been the most popular member. Even when she's not doing much, her presence is always felt. Jennie always wears outfits that are memorable, stylish, expressive, and statement-making. No matter the style, she always owns her outfits.

Virgo Venus - Yoona

Yoona (Girls' Generation) is a perfect example of a Virgo Venus. She wears clothes that are clean, refined, and minimalistic. She doesn't overdo her outfits nor her makeup. She embodies quiet elegance and grace. She doesn't really experiment with her style, just keeps it consistent and simple. She is known for being private and poised, which fits how Virgo's are usually full of dignity and subtly. She wasn't the original "Nation's Center" for no reason.

Libra Venus - Tzuyu

Tzuyu (Twice) has beauty that is harmonious, symmetrical, and effortless. Tzuyu has the kind of beauty that looks like she is a living art piece. Her presence feels peaceful and balanced. She usually wears flowy dresses, brighter colors, and gracefully tailored outfits. Her outfits don't ever feel out of place even if it's a style she rarely wears. But she definitely excels at wearing more formal, romantic, and elegant styles.

Scorpio Venus - Sunmi

I just love Sunmi. She has released versatile comebacks, but most of them still always carry a sensual and magnetic undertone to them. Her gaze and body language is always powerful. She always makes deep and powerful love songs (Heroine, Gashina, Tail), while releasing music videos with important and even darker messages (Noir), which is very Scorpio Venus coded. In her fashion, she usually wears black and red clothing, and sometimes floral patterns in short, flowy dresses.

Another thing I noticed is how she also wears florals a lot and even has flower visuals in some of her music videos. It's ironic because Scorpio Venus represents transformation and duality, which flowers perfectly represent. Flowers are beautiful and on the outside, but represent life, death, rebirth, and desire, which aligns with Scorpio's themes of transformation and and emotional depth. A flower can be crushed, plucked, and left to wither, which is similar to Scorpio's feelings of attachment and loss.

Sagittarius Venus - BIBI

Similar to Gemini Venus, I've noticed that Bibi's outfits are versatile, but a bit more experimental. One minute she's wearing a tightly fitted leather black dress with fish nets, the next minute she's wearing a big fluffy, multicolored dress. Then she gonna be wearing a bright and bold outfit with mismatched patterns and colors, then gonna hop in a simple cotton romper with only one or two colors on it. She is an absolute wild card and even knows how to blend certain styles, materials, and colors together to create a unique outfit.

Capricorn Venus - Krystal

Krystal (Fx) radiates an energy that is cool, composed, and chic. Her beauty reminds me of the old money aesthetic. She's luxurious and sophisticated. Her energy and fashion gives off quiet superiority and elite taste. She usually wears outfits in neutral and darker colors, such as brown, beige, white, black, dark blues, dark reds, and grey. She usually wears simple midi skirts, tailored women's suits, high heels or long boots, long and simple satin, cotton, flowy dresses, and occasional denim jeans with a simple shirt. She shows how less is more.

Aquarius Venus - Ningning

I feel like I can put Aespa as a whole group, but I decided to put Ningning because I feel like her outfits suit Aquarius Venus the most. Ningning's outfits are innovative, unique, and trend-setting. In my opinion, her stage outfits are some of the best out of all of Aespa's comebacks. Not only that, but the way she evolves in her fashion is amazing. One day, she could look cute and casual, then the next day she may look bold and glamorous, then after that she may look futuristic, and it'll all feel and look natural. Her beauty and style is unconventional and original.

Pisces Venus - IU

IU truly embodies everything about a Pisces Venus. She's like poetry in motion. Her beauty is soft, mystical, dreamy, and ethereal. She usually wears outfits that seem like they're straight out of a fairytale book. She wears pastel colors, lose and sheer fabrics, short dresses with detailed cuts and jewels on them, florals, and silver accessories with heels or short boots. She radiates a beauty that attracts many people, yet is subtle and bittersweet.

Thank you all so much for reading this post! This was very fun to make, especially since I love fashion a lot as well. I hope you all enjoyed this and if you have any question, leave them down in the comment section!

Of course Nicky will never clock Kevin as bisexual. Of course he never clocked andreil as queer. Of course he can't ever see the members of his own community.

As far as we know, Nicky's first time actually being in a big, queer community was the camp. I feel like people overlook this. He was raised baptist, and no matter how gay you turn and how much sinful sex you have, you're always going to be just a product of your environment. The hymns are embedded in your vocal cords. The wine flows through your veins. It's all he's ever known until it suddenly isn't.

I'm pretty sure that he grew up thinking that gay people were only this caricature, this nameless freak, like many of us did. Gay men always dress a certain way, they're annoying, loud, touchy, and lesbians are always disgusting and manly and smelly. This is what he was taught, and there's no indication that he ever grew *out* of this mindset.

Yes, I believe Nicky enjoys a lot of the things he does, but I also think he's portraying the part of who he thinks he *needs* to be. And everything outside of those boundaries is still new and unbelievable. He's still a child, and relatively new to being openly gay.

And he's so proud. He can't think of anyone being anything other than proud of what they are. Nicky sees things as very black and white (completely gay or straight as a rod, hatefucking or about to get married) and probably thinks that if you're not out and proud, you're working with internalized homophobia. He never wanted anything other than to be free, and he cannot even think about the fact that some people don't want that level of fanfare.

He expects anyone who's queer to immediately come and talk to him. He's trying so hard to be the safe, iconic gay that other people can look up to and latch onto. He thinks that the only thing stopping people from screaming their sexuality to the world is homophobia, therefore they would at least tell him.

He doesn't get that people (Andrew, Neil) might just want to keep things private, because, to him, privacy equals secrecy, secrecy equals shame, and, well, there's nothing to be ashamed of!

Or maybe I'm just rambling. Idk guys this is my hot take of the week or whatever

ADDITION: guys I edit it to baptist I'm SORRY for the previous mistake I was sleepy.

ALSO ALSO the fact that he had to choose to be baptized?? That he's being faced with the choice he made and the nature of what he is?? The nature versus nurture themes HELLO?? This man is driving me crazy
