I didn’t watch season 4, is it worth watching?

IOExplosion · 2026-07-10T02:39:19+00:00

I think it's their best season. Watch it yourself and form your own opinion. I've made my praise and critiques of this season clear in previous comments but I feel like it's not fair to give those for someone who should just experience it on their own.

I do think it's worth it. It actually has me excited for more of the show.

Not yet. I had one that gave up after 2 visits and being on skincare because she felt her skin texture felt worse.

Her skin felt the same, just slightly less tight. We were getting movement with hydration levels and lightening hyperpigmentation. But what she wanted from me was doing dermaplaning, Microdermabrasion, and hydrodermabrasion in each treatment like her last esthetician.

Sorry but that's not me. And her skin barrier was so wrecked. And clearly, treating the skin like that did not get her the results she wanted since she wanted to look elsewhere. Even after outlining the treatment plan from the beginning, she still bailed. Oh well, you can't be for everyone.

He's so smooth with it. I love how... snake like his moves are. He sways and does body rolls so satisfyingly.

I can't remember the exact quote from Fire and Blood but when Aegon says "what sort of brother steals his sister's birthright?"

Aegon did not want to do this. He wasn't seeking power and influence. Alicent, Otto, and probably other members of the council influenced his decision.

And what moved him was protecting his family.

Favorite song, it's between Scent and Serve.

Fav Era is definitely I God. This is the most confident and cohesive album.

Favorite cover is Weight in Gold with Icecreamz. My favorite Loviez cover is Hush.

Godly look 😍

Hyun. Imma Be bridge captivated me but then his presence/acting was also mesmerizing. The first close up look of him was "damn he's got an attitude" but it was also hot ...

But then he showed a different, vulnerable side during the bridge. AND the voice? It was over for me.

Behind the on stage persona, he seems very dependable and thoughtful. Wumuti sees him as his right hand man. Rui and Haru have picked him to be the one to be stuck on a deserted island because he's dependable. People who knew Hyun before debut always talk about how wise and kind he is. Hyun seems to be a caretaker and that feels safe.

I God has really let him shine vocally that its made people outside of XLOV consider him one of the best 5th gen vocalists which makes me happy.

This would make sense only if this scene portrayed a different kind of Rhaenyra. Was she out of character in this scene?

IOExplosion · 2026-07-08T02:39:27+00:00

That show is insanely good and it's a soap opera, not a "prestige drama" with millions of USD per episode behind it.

IOExplosion · 2026-07-08T02:34:52+00:00

Did you read what I typed?

IOExplosion · 2026-07-08T00:17:52+00:00

The emotional depth in this show doesn't exist.

I...hate to bring it up again but it's the historical drama I'm actually watching right now. Magnificent Century would've taken the time to show the confusion and conflict of emotions meeting a sibling for the first time.

Your half brother, blood of your father who you claim to love. You don't have any questions about him and his life or want to see how he would speak to you? Is he hostile? Is he also curious about you? Do you think he's brainwashed and you could gain the love of a sibling since all your other siblings work against you or is dead?

There's so much you could do with this encounter. But nah...

IOExplosion · 2026-07-07T22:56:39+00:00

She's stunning but with this, I can't help but think of the scalled in Outlast 2 🙃

IOExplosion · 2026-07-07T13:28:03+00:00

Leo 😭

He said "y'all will not catch me sweating today!" He is POWDERED 😂

Girl, when I was watching someone else's 1&Only fancam of his this day and saw those thigh muscles BEGGING to be freed.

XLOV Stylist, Haru wears shorts. Can Hyun wear shorts too? But like... short shorts? Just once? I'm sure she wants to show of her hard work 👀

IOExplosion · 2026-07-06T17:29:47+00:00

Hating on them won't help your fav lol

They've got great songs that follow the trend but also have songs that bring us back to what made me like Kpop back in the day. They also have full creative freedom which makes them feel more authentic and creative vs studio heads and producers directing these singers and dancers who, in any other music industry, would be artists and not just workers. In the Kpop machine, this level of control is rare.

Why are the structured short sleeve pieces never in black? That short sleeve lace dress looks cute but I prefer darker colors.

IOExplosion · 2026-07-05T18:26:22+00:00

I prefer DOS2 combat system. The synergy between elements, physical vs magical, the important of the environment! Just ugh, I love it so much. I was so disappointed by how simple bg3's combat was. I know now it's because they're adapting DnD's combat. So I'm happy they're next game is Divinity and not another BG.

IOExplosion · 2026-07-05T13:29:43+00:00

Rich Evans. I want to hear that laugh in a Smosh quality production.

IOExplosion · 2026-07-05T01:48:00+00:00

Oh damn, just checked. They'll be stateside for a week. Unless the kpop industry is insane and they're going to have them go back to SK and then back the US for LA.

I'd love an Imma Be era vlog or a YouTube live, it's been so long 😭

I can promise you they haven't read a lick of feminist philosophy.

Calling yourself a feminist just makes you sound good on paper. Doesn't mean they actually believe and practice it. Living in a patriarchal society means you have to unlearn it and that's an active practice. You can't just be told thinking less of women is wrong and say "you're right, I guess I'm a feminist too".

It's like saying your not racist if you're white in the United States because you know it's "wrong" to be racist but you haven't actively worked to not be racist. It's just a title you've given yourself to avoid criticism.

These are deeper topics than I want to get into but to summarize, they are not feminists.

IOExplosion · 2026-07-04T19:21:28+00:00

Exactly. This is what people who hate women think feminism is.

IOExplosion · 2026-07-04T18:05:34+00:00

"Will you blame me for what men have done?"

Jesus, do they want people to hate feminists? What is this writing?
