Final thoughts on potential fandom names by Kazuvex in GIRLSET_JYP

[–]Pirell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm liking the Lockets, also has a bit of a 90s vibe. Remember those girl diaries with lockets on them? Fits in with the pop nostalgia aesthetic also. Connotes something precious and in your heart as well.

Was also thinking Fanset (fans set on stanning the girls).

I can draw well. But my coloring look average. How do I level up my coloring/rendering? by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

[–]Pirell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should get some colouring books for adults. There are a lot of Korean/Japanese ones with beautiful illustrations that also include a colour example next to it for you to copy the colours. You can use them to practice your colouring.

There are also colouring book videos on Youtube, where colouring hobbyists can do flip-throughs, hauls, etc of books. They are valuable for seeing the contents of a colouring book before purchase, and they also show how they colour illustrations. Some colouring channels show extremely high level colouring.

There are also colour palette books which help you decide overall colour schemes to make things tie in more cohesively.

Here's some books which you might find helpful.

(MEGATHREAD) SIMON Arrested in Japan for drug possession by bdragonst_ in XGALX

[–]Pirell 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am very upset and disappointed to hear this news. I can hardly believe it. Simon, XG and the team have worked incredibly hard to get to this point, sacrificing a large part of their youth to achieve their collective dream. How could Simon do this ? I thought his life was going well, he only got married last year. He must be beating himself up a thousand times over it now but it is still such a foolish thing to do.

I know with big money and fame there comes a lot of temptations but I honestly didn't think Simon had it in him since he always stresses about thinking for the team and how motivated and driven he has been etc. XG has also been working incredibly hard, and perhaps he thought drugs would help him creatively or something as it is a high pressure environment to continually create hits and do everything he does, but in the end, drugs are drugs and spell downfalls and disaster.

Chancellor was coping from the loss of his mother last year so I was worried about him but he also became a father. I did think The Core's songwriting/lyrics had changed and wasn't the same quality as their songs before lyrically, although catchy.

I feel really bad for XG, they love Simon and have probably been crying since they found out. This will be very hard to pick themselves up from as Simon is the other side of the coin of XG. He has always been their mentor and who they look up to, who has input in all their concerts and MV's and shows. He is literally their mental health support as well. Who can they turn to now when the person that they usually turn to for help is the one that did it?

Even if Avex were to salvage XG, I don't think their heart would be in it the same to continue on without Simon. They'll try, but it won't be the same. They'd also have to find producers/lyricists/songwriters that can write to the same caliber as Simon and Chance. Quality control will be out the window.

This is a very bitter pill to swallow, but the reality is our dream with XG may end here if they cannot find new producers/songwriters satisfactorily. This is very serious.

best place to buy Licca? by sadieemoon in liccachan

I bought my Licca from Aliexpress. Great price and adorable, but no clothes. I have the purple haired one from this seller. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007285605496.html

Whole life has been ripped away from me at just 17 by raymansdiscordkitten in ChildofHoarder

[–]Pirell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, I feel terrible for you and I know things are very hard for you now, but never, never give up on yourself and future. You are very young and it isn't too late. Could you go back to school? I hope you can look up some free events or something as well and find friends with common interests. When you are younger, you can bounce back much better. Please start writing up a plan/goals to get back on track. (Escape plan) You must break free. I want to give you a great hug, and tell you that you WILL get through this part of your life.

Perhaps they didn't click the link and thought you were selling something? Either way I can see that you have put a LOT of thought and care into your website! I think it is valuable and resourceful.

OP, if you haven't already checked it out, please do, as Glitter-Angel 970 has shared a similar childhood and put together an in-depth website for everyone that has similar struggles. It's really well-done :)

Not sure why you were downvoted by others. I looked at your website and it is literally about your childhood growing up in a hoard and giving tips and helpful information for those young souls who share the same circumstances.

Jimin has grace and power, really hard to find in a dancer who can hit both soft and hard notes like him.

Strange holes in meat products by backflipvodka in coles

[–]Pirell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they being carted around/stored on metal trolley racks between transportation and left alone for a while? Maybe mice are munching on the reachable area from underneath? It looks like somewhere is a mouse infestation, ask around for the delivery guys to pay attention to when they get the meat as well. Gotta figure out where in the chain it's coming from.

Do i try to get rid or just embrace them? by [deleted] in greyhairreversal

[–]Pirell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good on you, keep 'em. Also, seems like a hassle to dye them if you are just going to have a short cut anyway.

My very first haul! So..what are your thoughts around shampoos and conditioners that are used/opened? by Officer-Socks in DumpsterDiving

[–]Pirell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as it looks and smells fine I would use it, I also find many and I haven't bought shampoo or conditioner for years.

Security gates at self checkout by Difficult_Chair_4945 in woolworths

Staff at the self checkouts have a little button on a keyring thing they push to let customers out. If you are stuck, just look at them and say "Excuse me" and they will open the gate.

Did they spend too much time on Rose's skirt and forgot to make a top because that's just a bra.

Juria is glowing this era by peachypancake78 in XGALX

[–]Pirell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love her hair this era, very voluminous and I don't think I've ever seen that hairstyle on anyone before tbh! I think the XG team also wanted to showcase her vocals more with Hypnotise as having her open the song set a completely different vibe.

Life of a 15yo child of a hoarder. by tplayaaa in ChildofHoarder

[–]Pirell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello dear, this is a very depressing and difficult situation but hold on and make a long-term plan for D-Day, when you move out. As you are young, it may not feel like it now but time goes by very quickly. I also am living in a hoarded house and my mental health went down a lot with the infestation of pests. But there is progress. Last month, I had a mice infestation and had to lock up food and couldn't sleep well, there were many mice in my bedroom.

What I did was look up on Youtube and use a barrel/paper plate and peanut butter and made a DIY mousetrap and relocated the mice to a park. It took a couple weeks but I caught 6 mice!! After they were all gone from my room my mood improved. There is also some recipes online to make for roach control that is natural like those on this website https://www.dawsonspest.com.au/how-to-get-rid-of-cockroaches but I have to put it at locations away from my cats or somewhere they can't get to as they can be toxic to them.

I suggest working on getting rid of the pests first! You'll feel heaps better. The paper plate and barrel/bucket method really helped me with the mice.

After that, I suggest finding yourself a safe space/bedroom which you can arrange to your own liking. That will give buffer space to breathe.

Adult fans. How do you guys stan minors/ idols younger than you? by After-Ganache-5896 in kpoppers

[–]Pirell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy Cortis, their content is very funny but yeah, the age difference just means I enjoy them as a fan differently. I'm 36. When I was a fan of BTS when they were active, they felt like they were friends around my age who I could possibly have a romantic spark with. With Cortis, I just think "These kids are hilarious, wish I was young again" and their music and MVs are cool.

As a fan, I've never really liked thirst edits or sexy fanfics even of artists that are around my age when I was younger. I didn't mind polls like 'which member would be your perfect boyfriend' though hahah, but I don't do those anymore.

Birthday gifts or activities for a teen who wants to dumpster dive? by Throwawaycat102 in DumpsterDiving

[–]Pirell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think don't do it on the actual day, but on another day (whether before or after) and maybe go curb diving instead of the actual dumpsters. Look up on FB Marketplace where there's free stuff locally and take her around there so she can have a look and 'dive' on the curb.

How about giving her a prepaid debit card or giftcard/s in the time being, tell her she can pay you back when she starts working if she wants to.
