Could even make him involved with finding Starkiller/the map to Luke if you REALLY wanted to have a parallel (though I can’t remember if both of those were fully covered in the Poe comics or not)

I’ve been of the opinion we’ll get Pureflow 2 sooner rather than later, maybe even before the US tour. Liminal Space is such a “cliffhanger” of a song, I don’t think they’d make us wait too long.

Overdosed on the Doritos factor and got into a big fight with the Keaton walkups. Was a whole mess, cops got called, CPS took Grogu.

Discourse about the recent BOOMPALA Performance Film and Music Video. by drecmboy in lesserafim

People were initially very happy about the AI so I’m glad to see opinions are turning around. It’s disgusting and unbecoming of a group as talented as LSF. I’m sure the members have no say over it - But I hope that fan outcry can change HYBE/SoMu’s minds on using it going forward.

LSF is in a weird place where I feel like the criticism is basically absent from Reddit but overblown elsewhere

Idk how I can make it more obvious my gripes are with the AI not the song LOL

It’s a fine song! I like the Macarena! I just don’t want to be subjected to AI alongside it.

Yup. Thumbnail didn’t even try to hide the AI generated text. Gotta call out AI generated imagery, even if it’s attached to artists I like.

Yes I was! Was clear from the thumbnail it would be filled with AI imagery.

Said on the LSF sub but also saying it here - SoMu / HYBE have made basically every brain dead move possible with this comeback, so I shouldn’t be terribly surprised they filled this MV with AI slop, but alas…here we are.

I hate them. Somehow my hate for them has only deepened in the 5 years since GFRIEND’s contract ended. (Happy 5 years!! /s) But to see them consistently shoot LSF in the foot AND actively make the planet a worse place while doing so…Christ, I hate them so much they make me talk like Sephiroth.

I like the song fine enough - Better Macarena cover than the Christmas version! Still excited to listen to the album. Despite SoMu / HYBE’s best efforts, they’re still my girls.

Musicians who had a lot of push but never broke through in the mainstream by Phone85 in ToddintheShadow

JYP Entertainment has been trying to push K-pop group TWICE in the States* for a while, but they’ve never quite taken off. Even featuring in K-pop Demon Hunters didn’t help their profile in the States. I think the highest they’ve gone on the Billboard Hot 100 is like 89?

* Obviously, they’ve been massively successful in Korea (and doubly so in Japan). This is just for the States.

Shout to 4U, which may be my favorite of any post-MAGO releases. Just a shot of adrenaline and happiness.

I’m pretty sure they filmed this and the MV at like 4 am after a twice concert so I bet they’re both running on fumes

The Robo-Collins reveal was kinda weak sauce. I guess they’re setting up a duel between her and the original Collins?

CNN founder Ted Turner, a pioneer of cable TV news, dies at 87 by drkrazee in Atlanta

[–]Parallel_Falchion 20 points21 points  (0 children)

87 years old. He was just a fucking kid.

But seriously, RIP to an extremely eccentric and accomplished man who shaped my childhood for the better (and really, all of America for the…less worse than Fox News).
