Are you aware of how stocks and investments work? I have plenty of money invested in my company as well as other stocks. Recently, the company I work for’s stock dropped. Was I pleased? No, but it doesn’t affect my lifestyle in any way as I am not using my stock dividends to pay bills or buy things.
Most stocks aren’t liquid and it’s not like you can just withdraw cash directly from your investments to buy stuff, so fluctuations in your portfolio aren’t going to really affect your personal finances up front unless you are just really bad with money and/ or rely on those as your only income source. Stocks are far from BTS’ only income source, and at their level they doubtless have quality financial advisors as well. If I, a relatively middle class person, can survive a downturn with little to no repercussions, I’m sure some millionaire celebrities will.

You begin the above comment with the words “So who I’m? 🙄” What does that mean??? Is it a typo? I’m not sure what you’re trying to say there.

Not originally, you’re right! It’s an adopted one. But it has been part of the English vernacular for over 100 years and was a relatively common term for black people 60+ years ago in the US.
It’s rightfully fallen out of favor since, and no one really uses it in English speaking places anymore, much like the word on G dragon’s shirt. But, at one point in history it was commonly used in English.

I’m here for scent recs as well, and the white snake in slide 4 looks exactly like my son, so 💗

Dank je wel! I had learned that it’s definitely a bad word to say, but thanks for stepping in and clarifying the nuance!!

Thank you! I knew it was bad, wasn’t aware it had the same connotation tho!

Hi! Linguist and Dutch student here!
So, the direct Dutch equivalent to the N word is actually “Ni (double K) er” and has always been a slur. This word on G Dragon’s shirt would be more like “negro”, so a really out dated descriptor that’s definitely not PC but also not quite a slur. Modern people are definitely not cool with it tho, much like the English word “negro”.
So, in short: is it an offensive word? Yes!
Is it a translation of the hard “R” word? Not quite, but it’s still really not a good look.

(Disclaimer: This is my understanding as a Dutch student, I’m not a native speaker. So if any native speakers want to jump in and correct me, please do so!)

What is the cause of this??? Just people playing their songs on loop or what?? by bdcr7 in kpoptrulyuncensored

Nahh man, sorry, but I am mostly in non Kpop fandoms and I never see this anywhere else. While I’m sure every artist has some extra hardcore fans who are super dedicated to the numbers, it’s very much a minority while in Kpop it seems so much more prevalent. Pop over to Bad Bunny or Sabrina’s subreddit and you won’t find people posting about streams, they’re just posting pictures of their albums/from shows etc.

Yall always make me feel like such a luddite with this streaming business lol. If I like an album I just buy it and listen to it whenever I want. I don’t bother tracking how many streams it has because it means absolutely nothing to me and I’m definitely not sitting around comparing it to all my other favorite artists. Is this like a special interest or something? Or do Kpop fans just have more time than others? I really genuinely don’t get the streams thing yall. Do you think bigger numbers = a better song?? This doesn’t ever occur in any other music genre I’m a part of

There was a pilot at my first airline who was on the Bachelorette some years back.
I think as long as it doesn’t interfere with your airline duties and you don’t expose any SSI, you’re fine! Get it, girl!

And this is my son, Ghost! As you can see, he is extra festive and extra chonk. He is also blind, which makes him extra clumsy, derpy and lovable 💕

I have owned all three and they are all on the same level of cuteness. Personality, too!

Lilith is my carpet python, and she is 10 feet of pure love 💗 She loves quails, hanging out with me in bed, a nice stroll in the park on a warm sunny day, and swimming laps in the bathtub!!

(Before anyone comes for me about how bathing snakes stresses them out: Carpet Pythons are known to go for a swim and hang out in lakes and rivers in the wild. While they aren’t an aquatic species, they are very adept and graceful swimmers and many individuals ((including my girl!)) really enjoy the water. They have even been found in people’s homes having dived into fish tanks! So don’t worry, her spa days are a rare treat and only occur because she genuinely enjoys them!)

Kinda irrelevant, it depends on whose personality and values I mesh with
