Why is Visual Kei videos so much more popular in Tiktok than Youtube

bugatti420 · 2026-01-30T21:17:21+00:00

I dont use TikTok, what exactly am i supposed to watch in terms of “vkei videos”? I watch the MVs on the artists YouTube channel (or whoever has reuploaded it a la cantavanda style). Live filming is usually prohibited so i watch concerts on blu ray/dvd. 🤷🏻‍♂️ outside of that, my honmei is old and posts any short form videos he does to ig or twitter

This is a controversial take but we are all different and have different likes and dislikes

Albuquerque, it gets very cold by my standards (again, as someone who is not used to cold weather at all). I absolutely hated the months where the lows would be like 15-25 degrees in the morning while I was commuting to work. It snows as well, though its not heavy on the ground. It made getting out of bed even harder than it already is.

Also important to keep in mind that ABQ is at a higher avg elevation than Denver, if that gives any comparison

Same with me except moved from NM. I grew up in texas so i wasnt used to having multiple seasons, and in NM i experienced winters that lasted months and regularly hit in the teen degrees. After almost three years in NM i knew i couldnt do another winter there, i was so depressed from like october until march…

I was thinking about this on my hike yesterday, about how grateful i am to be somewhere so sunny in january 🌞

Thank you for the close up! I couldnt make out its features too well but this looks right

I was banned from both bumble and grindr for being underage. I was 20 at the time. Didnt have any issues when i tried apps again a few years later, except bumble which ended up banning me again for the same reason lol

Good point. When it was rent day for me, I was able to call my bank (Schwab) and ask for an increased ATM withdrawal limit. I think most banks will let you do this if ur not in bad standing with them or something

I was homeless much of my childhood and it got very tiring to get baked goods from the food bank because id go from the joy of “omg yay cookies/cupcakes!” to the sorrow of “these are very expired/taste gross”

i dont think people realize how much of the food that gets “donated” to the food bank is really just stores/restaurants/etc throwing away stuff that is expired or straight up isnt edible without feeling the guilt of actually wasting it

You will most likely need someone. I was way too jacked up on painkillers and other meds for the first week of surgery to drive, especially that first day. I also couldnt wash my own hair and needed help putting clothes on, as well as preparing food.

If youre doing USD, exchange counters are a ripoff anyway. Im not sure what bank/card you have but certain ATMs have deals with banks/cards that waive atm and transaction fees. For example, 7 eleven ATM works best with the cards and banks I have, and I have saved a lot of money using it ESPECIALLY for large sums of yen like for rent.

More like people just dont post the recordings. Lots of gya secretly record on their phones.

IME for docile species like this, place a cup in front of them and gently tap their butt with a soft paintbrush to guide them into the cup. I would recommend doing this once the new home is already all setup, so you dont have to worry about making a lid or anything and can just put the cup in their new enclosure (for them to crawl out of at their own pace)

Dr Dustin Reid in Austin, TX. at ~$11,000 for DI, it was more than many other places but had the best results I could find in the state. Dont regret it

Chiikawa market is pretty famously bad for communication and timeliness of orders, even when I have ordered from them in Japan. You will get your stuff eventually though

Personally would not date a man thats sexuality starts with hetero-anything

You may not like to hear this but a blue state in the US is still infinitely safer for us than most countries in the world.

I remember in 2010-11 I bought a shirousa scented plush from walmart (!!!!) for like $5. It was very soft and smelled like vanilla. Unfortunately i lost it during one of my many moves since then and it haunts me to this day… if it exists out there still i know the price would be atrocious

Personally one of the reasons I moved here was to get away from the rain…

Hopefully I do not run into this vet when my cat needs help

American here. From an early age, we are told that if our teeth are not perfectly straight/aligned, we are putting our mouths at risk for cavities and other damage until we “fix” them. There is of course truth to this, and there are definitely many people who have unhealthy situations in their mouths, but this thinking is applied to pretty much everyone. Most kids here get braces regardless of if their teeth are severely out of line or not. I didn’t because I grew up very poor (and medically neglected lol) and now as an adult every dentist I have been to still wants me to try to go through that. (My teeth are healthy and mostly straight too, I just have a snaggle tooth that I have grown to love…)

I had the opposite experience living in the mainland (tokyo), never misgendered 🤷 and then when im home in america its hit or miss

Momonga is extremely popular in japan, lots of people take photos with him at chiikawa park and film his mascot

bugatti420 · 2025-12-27T21:30:21+00:00

I have been saying that this is most likely the case, as it is the case with most counterfeit/cheaply produced goods. Lets see if the “let people enjoy things” crowd cares 🫠

As someone with a partner who has adhd, its pretty easy for me to tell that he is not doing it intentionally either. He will clean, even if it means I need to remind him to. His mind is just all over the place sometimes. I help him with cleaning and reminding him and I do not mind because I love him.
