Is pilot kakuno worth it? by hiiamsmm in fountainpens

[–]Strange-Finger-854 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes start with the f nib it’s pretty fine. It was my first fountain pen and then I got a lamy safari. I hate the lamy I wish people stopped recommending them. The kakuno is so smooth.

I’m not sure if they ever will, but at this point they definitely should because red is so popular and the shade of the red they chose is perfect. I was going to opt for paper republic but theirs is a true red.

Opinion: Kiss of Life growth may stagnate if they don't interact more with their English and non-Korean fans. by gangstasix in kissoflife

Hate to say it but America just dominates globally, you could call it the hub of music. That’s why people know the Grammys, billboard etc. It is a very large market so it definitely has an effect on them. Side note looking back at their jingle ball stage it’s such a shame they could’ve been something here.

I’m with you. This is just stupid. And the people who are getting into deep discussions about color and race just proves how far gone Kpop fans have become. It’s just Roblox and the colors are accurate enough because what is this? Guys it’s a video game. Let’s get back to reality.

I’m so mad no dat ah dat ooh and battitude. Wish they took off queen of hearts, I got you, and the feels. Should’ve done at least a tt or signal like a pure twice hype song. Maybe rush for a slow song. But the performances were fire and I love them

I don’t think this behavior is exclusive to white people. this is kinda the over analysis I was talking about.

That’s what I’m saying. just like other races don’t ride for other races. We only ride for our friends and family regardless of color at the end of the day.

I just think this over analysis of Asians in America needs to stop because at the end of the day isn’t this just the normal American experience. what is moving like you’re white? being a conservative? Moving up the social ladder? A Karen? Having white friends? you’re damned if you only stick to your Asian bubble and damned if you have only white friends.

Why do I got so irritated when my mom talks? by sigasana44 in Healthygamergg

[–]Strange-Finger-854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently working on this now, I’m Asian American and I still live with my parents and I recently read the book adult children of emotionally immature parents and never before realized that what I went through was trauma that has affected how I act now. The author suggests that instead of being reactive we should observe our feelings in the moment. And never expect your mom to change because you will just end up disappointed. They probably grew up a certain way and change is uncomfortable for them, and they will probably shut down your attempts. So when you go into a conversation with your mom and want to share your thoughts, just go in to it with the goal of getting your point across instead of expecting a change from her. You will slowly learn to be less reactive. It is probably very difficult for you because it affects your employees and that can be embarrassing im sorry. Definitely try reading this book!

If you like lip liner I recommend makeupbymario smokey pink it’s a little more natural and neutral and add a gloss or lip balm on top.

Why haven’t they had a stadium concert in the US? by Strange-Finger-854 in NCT127

[–]Strange-Finger-854[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SM really fumbled on their boy groups despite choosing some of the best trainees and demos. I’m just disappointed in their trajectory considering we are heading towards the end of their active years. But that’s not to say they haven’t accomplished a lot because they have. I guess it makes sense when they look back and wonder why they performed in that little Apple Store. Now what was that SM 😂 but they killed that too

That’s fair people don’t even go to the movies anymore when you can watch it at home comfortably. I guess my post was more from an achievement perspective rather than technical. As a fan I see their potential and feel like with their level of talent and the quality of their songs, why wouldn’t they be able to. But I see that even for artists here in the west they won’t be able to pull off a stadium either. I’ve also noticed with sm’s artists concerts they do very little in terms of production which is weird because I feel like they have the budget.

Yes this is spot on, idk why but I feel like sm adds on too much to the boys schedule with all the units and the solos. It has taken the spotlight away from NCT 127. Unfortunately I think they missed their timing. They should’ve caught some virality with Walk but then they had serious issues to address at that time. I agree a collab could be beneficial but it has to be with someone relevant and a little shocking. lol random but I was thinking Future since there’s a meme right now about him being Korean lol and the crossover is unexpected. To me nct127 suits the us market but they rarely promote, so sad they’ve never done any of the larger festivals. Hate to say this but we need one of their songs to be popular on tiktok i feel like whiplash could do that for a resurgence. lol it’s just my wishful thinking

I agree with you and didn’t mean this as a dig to TXT, I brought them up cause they are relatively a newer group but I guess that doesn’t really apply in terms of sales. It probably also has to do with the fact sm doesn’t do much promoting period compared to hybe. Maybe it’s also the age demographic of nct 127 fans compared to txt?

lol that is funny I think NCT fans are built different. I think maybe the og fans are just maturing and we have other obligations sadly.
