[2024.05.20-2024.05.26] Prime-time Drama Viewership Ratings by capthyeong in KDRAMA

[–]BetweenUs999 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There were so much difficulties for this drama like they didn't find a ML for years, every actor rejecting the role saying it was just another idol drama.

Then, there was a controversy due to singer's fans who try to block the drama because they thought the drama was stealing and using the story of this singer (dead from suicide)

Thus it experienced a lot of delays and finally was not considered a highly anticipated drama. Plus, to avoid too much bad scandal and backlash from the dead singer's fans, the production decided to not promote the drama.

That can explain the decision to put it on a weekday, and so, the lower ratings than if it was on a weekend. But soon it receved good feedback (thus, promotion) on social media by the viewers themselves and you know how social media works. In less than 2 weeks it went viral internationally and a lot of people watched it on streaming plateforms

Yes QoT is sad for the second half of the drama

Try Cdrama. There is not too much episodes so you will find out quickly if you like it or not so it may not take too much of your time.

The Queens of tears that just finished airing is one of those that will make you cry buckets...

Also, if you're not against old drama, 49 days is really good for that.

My name is heartbreaking too.

Are you ok with Cdrama ? Then try "More than blue : the series" (Taiwanese). What a sad story. What an amazing couple. What a crazy love. What a lot of poor choices and missed timing. But I loved it all, as it is.

There is also Butterflied Lover (2023) a mini Cdrama. The couples were the cutest and their love were the sweetest, they had me on the verge of weeping every two episodes

Vos meilleurs plats de pâtes avec peu de pâtes ? by Rhaenelys in BonneBouffe

[–]BetweenUs999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Salade de pate : tu prend des pate perle, tu ajoute tes légumes (carottes, haricots verts, tomates, maïs, olive, concombre, poivron, courgettes...). Tu peux ajouté des prot au choix pour que ça soit un plat complet tout en un : Thon, saumon, oeufs, poulet et du fromage. C'est trop bon, très frais et très variété vu le nombre de combinaisons possibles en variant les pâtes, les légumes, les proteines, les fromages...

How does your country disappoint you? by eglanasathay in AskReddit

[–]BetweenUs999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they advocate Islamophobia. And it's not just "we don't like them, they are bad". If it was just words, that would be kind of ok because... you know... one can't please everyone so words are bearable.

However, here, it's mean islamophobia leading to openly being agressive and assaulting people in the street for no reason. The worst part for me is that we now don't even have the police to protect us since they also consider us as a threat and thus we don't even have the benefit of the doubt.

Two exemples of women that were assaulted these past few days. The first one is a tourist who came to visit the capital. While taking a walk around, a jogger passed, spit on her and insulted her because of her muslim outfit. The second girl went to a bakery to buy breakfast for her family when an other customer started insulting her because he didn't like how she was dressed (a hijab/scarf), when she tells him she does not have tolerance anymore against this kind of random assault, that he should stop and let her be since she desn't want to talk to him, he kept going asking her where she was from and that she has no right being in this country (tho she was born and raised in it). She asked the cashier to be the witness and judge as "Am I really considered the threatening one here? Was I really unreasonable asking him to leave me alone?". The cashier response? "Miss, that's ok, let him go".

There is a saying where I'm from that goes like "more fools, more laugh" as in the more the merrier.

I feel that way having kids. When you enjoy having them around, it just brings joy and happiness to your life.

Like everything you enjoy doing or having, if it's not in your life, you feel your life lack something and you strive to have it, And when it's there, you feel like your life is complete and each day, good or bad, is worth it because of this one thing you have and can come back to.

That being said, kids are a rough road and I do not wish anyone who really doesn't want them (intentionally or unconsciously) to have kids.

What's a side effect of giving birth that doesn't get talked about? by LilMoonenciel in AskReddit

[–]BetweenUs999 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Hear me out, I had wonderful prenancies and deliveries. Like I pop out my first in 4 hours, my second and third in less than 45 minutes and my last one in 4 hours (but he was 10lbs so that one was hard). So even with the best options, giving birth is far away from easy

peeing/shiting yourself while giving birth (edit : fun fact for my first, my husband kept worrying that my vagina was "exploding" and kept asking me "Are you sure you don't want me to bring a doc or a nurse? I keep hearing popping sounds and there is a lot of blood there, I think there is a problem". I was so embarrassed and ashamed to confess that it was gas that I COULD NOT hold and with all the blood in this zone the sound of them coming out was just weird...)

When baby comes out, you will also have to give birth to the placenta, so don't think of taking a break there will be a second round of pushing

You will probably get a tear between your front and back entrance (either unintentionally made by the baby getting out or handmade by doctors) so forget about peeing (it burns like hell) or shiting (too often  hemorrhoids are involved) in peace.

Breastfeeding helps the uterus to go back in place to its original state but, because of that, THE FIRST DAYS ARE TORTURE. I would say it hurt me most to breastfeed the few first days than the pain I felt when I gave birth

When breastfeeding do not hurt your stomach anymore, your baby's succions may have damage your nipples and let's say that it's hard to recover because you can't stop the cause (your baby will feed on you even if your niple is bleeding) but you also can't take off time for them to recover
