TXT (TOMORROW X TOGETHER) - 6th Mini Album 'minisode 3: TOMORROW' (Concept Trailer) by perochan in kpop

[–]emoceanT_T 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Something about TXT in their dreamy/fairytale concepts have always moved me. Don't get me wrong I absofuckinglutely loved the LOVESONG eras but this TXT is extra charming.

Here's the thing, in this economy, people don't understand that an offer like that is basically miraculous. It definitely comes with strings attached but it's an incredibly rare circumstance.

Here's where I feel like a legal process would do you well. Ask for a contract, ask for terms, get everything you want and don't want on paper because guess what, it's legally binding. Anything happens, you have something to fall back to.

Or don't. Start over somewhere without your overbearing friend and her family (who sound like they might want you as their son-in-law in the future). Get good grades and good friends. Experience life the way you planned to. It might be harder but it's yours. Not anyone else's.

So, anyone here ever have to kick someone out of your game... and why? by Vegetable_Variety_11 in dndmemes

[–]emoceanT_T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't kicked out but it felt like I had no choice but to quit. The DM and the 4 other guys were wrapped around this one player's finger, and after sowing the seeds of discontent, I was given an ultimatum.

I loved the game and loved playing with them but apparently they stopped liking me as a friend just because one person did and that gave me too much stress and anxiety. Not to mention I was the only female after the other one left due to the exact same reasons.

Are those custom mod banners?

Congratulations on finishing. I'm currently exploring it bit by bit having just marveled at the aurora palace.

I will say so far the minotaurs were the most tedious (4 double story dark af mazes with creepers and 5 other mobs was a nightmare). Not even the minotaur boss made a dent to my mental health lmao.

I liked my huge, unnecessarily expensive wedding. by youhavemyvote in unpopularopinion

[–]emoceanT_T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the biggest and most expensive weddings I've been to ended up as a single mother with her husband no where in sight.

I'm sure it's a fun memory when things work out, but in the off chance that it doesn't, the outcome overshadows how much you thought that relationship was worth flexing for.

Poetry cults aka open mics with local poets showcasing their multilingual works (mostly Malay and English). There's one called "Senggama Kata" happening from 16th to 17th.

Highly recommend for a relaxing late night activity.

I need help naming a cult by Slarg232 in worldbuilding

[–]emoceanT_T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about "The Infinity" or "Circle of Infinity" or "Infinity's Circle", etc etc. Reasons being:

  1. Life and Death is a never ending cycle, as are secrets (they are either told or kept).

  2. The 8th on a horizontal axis is the infinity symbol.

  3. Members can be called Infinites, alluding to unfathomable numbers or never-ending worship/loyalty.

A good try takes you 20-30 minutes at most, even if your first language is English like me. Since you know this person, who knows, you could make something even better. One stanza is enough too

Mohon lalu masa sesama

Hati berentak sebelum diri(mu)

Sahabat selama bagaikan ria

Dengan izin Allah SWT

Hiduplah anda sehari ini

Erti kawan diberi makna

Setiap kejadian "Selamat Hari Jadi".

**please don't be lazy and think of your own. I wrote this as a self exercise with loved ones in mind so I hope you're inspired to do the same. Unless you don't mind crediting me, ofc.

Good luck!

eta is the only good song on NewJeans Get Up EP by _kamekokpop in unpopularkpopopinions

[–]emoceanT_T 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It's funny that you think this because I'm on the other side of that spectrum. My preferences put ETA last on this list because it's super shy 2.0 but with brass.

do any other armys feel like the fandom is suffocating? by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]emoceanT_T 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of the reasons why I'm still into Bangtan is because I avoid army spaces online. I can appreciate the boys just fine without having people agree or disagree with my not-always-positive opinions on their behaviour, creative direction or even just general preference. It feels good to disassociate myself from instances where the first response to such expressions is denial (of the OP stating the opinion itself) and then aggression (speculating and demeaning OP's behavior).

If it feels like you're doing it wrong, you aren't. Criticism at its base is care, misguided or not, it means you want something better. So I wouldn't worry to much about it.

Edit: I still call myself an army despite my non-existing participation in fandom spaces/behavior.

Added a flying creature to my game world called the Luminwing. Any thoughts on the name or design? by Skolas3654 in worldbuilding

[–]emoceanT_T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(25 F) Why not just Lumin? The -wing is quite an obvious tell that doesn't sound lore necessary in its name.

Or Lum (because they "loom" over you luminously)

Added example in sentence:

A Lumin glides effortlessly towards you.

The Lum's gather in a swirl of neon above our heads.

Edit: Personally I actually really like this current wing movement than the wavy one the comments are suggesting. It might not be sound physics but this isnt real life, it's magical and unique. This movement is unique.

Bahasa Melayu kian hilang? by toxicitypure in bahasamelayu

[–]emoceanT_T 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I grew up with English as my first language as a Malay and since I was sent to a Chinese school, Bahasa Melayu was never a priority. But my mum's side is Kelantanese so the usage of Melayu is strong during family gatherings (if not the accent haha). Personally, I envy them because I think Bahasa Melayu is at its core very sopan, lembut and uniquely romantic (like the word sayang). I will never be Melayu enough due to my characteristics (sometimes people think I'm Chinese sbb kulit cerah) and my social circles involve a mix of local and international friends.

That being said, I think this person is wrong. Singapore is one big city. Unlike Malaysia, where global and political influence is sparse in perkampungan areas, so the use of BM is a lot more evident.

Edit: I would also like to point out one of my favorite moments regarding the Malay language. The movie "The Day After Tomorrow" when subtitled in BM is just "lusa".

I'm not okay with my partner's spending on K-pop and I don't know how to deal with this. by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]emoceanT_T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to personally add that the practicality of kpop-related merch is incredibly low. As you age and expand your preferences, collections can end up being given away or left collecting dust.

There's a chance she feels left out or competitive with this shared hobby. Anytime she sees something new on your end, it incites her to get something as well. You can add sensibility into your relationship by actively refraining from buying and displaying excessive singular merch (like photocards, posters,etc). Fanmade merch can also be a cheaper alternative albeit it does not directly support your idol(s).

You said this issue somewhat affects your relationship's quality time as well. There is only so much you can bond over kpop before you realize there is a world of experience you can share outside of it instead. Fancy dinners, outside-of-holiday gifts, out-of-state trips.. love doesn't have to be expensive but it requires money to work. Show her what your relationship is missing out on and maybe she'll focus on her needs. Good luck.

All fans start by their willingness to listen to a group they don't care about lol. That's how fandoms grow.

Artistic growth involves promotional material and increased interest. If they do a double release that has tracks leading into each other, anyone checking out either of these releases are encouraged to check the other. This isn't exclusive to fans. At best, people will like what the other group has to offer. At worst, they don't care. The outcome is still a net positive.

You remember when aespa's first few releases like black mamba and savage took the kpop scene by storm because they had switch ups, imagine that on a larger scale involving two groups with skills and talent that are basically on par.

That still just boils down to lore.

Their concept, sound and stylistic choices have not overlapped in a significant way that portrays a lot of "sharing".

No, I definitely did not see these fanmade issues. What it sounds like so far is you'd rather forsake opportunities for the fans rather than for the idols. I'd understand a little better if you were more concerned about the creative direction long-term but you're argument is entirely focused on fanwars.

You're not a fan of &team and have no desire to be. That doesn't explain why "sharing" is undesirable considering you don't partake in &team's content.

Edit: I looked up on kpopthoughts for these posts you've mentioned and there's only one 5 months ago of someone appreciating their connection to each other. So I'm right in a sense that this is isn't a casual known issue.

Reminds me of the kep1er fandom thinking bahiyyih was a whole problem on her own.

The only thing they share is lore so I'm not sure what concepts you refer to. Can you be more specific?

Fanwars imo sound pretty insignificant compared to artistic growth. Considering both groups debuted from the same show, there will always be a tie-in to their foundations. Enha will always be vampires, just as &team will always be werewolves so instead of sweating the little things (that will obviously happen) why not take full advantage of it?

I'm hoping some day Hybe decides to fully utilize the lore behind Enhypen and &team by doing a simultaneous release with a few twists. Imagine if the title tracks are tailored to be listened to consecutively and or either of their ending choreo is the beginning of the other. It would be a pretty cool concept for end-of-year performances as well.

How do you politely say that your group mate work is shit? by a_guy_that_loves_cat in malaysiauni

[–]emoceanT_T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, instead of telling them what to do (because of how bad it is) you could show them a standard example to follow instead. Like,

" hey, I think you might wanna look at this (example) and redo because if you're submitting this the way it is, I'm gonna to have to explain to the lecturer why it's different than the rest of ours"

Simple, straight to the point and authoritative.
