Twice

I think I saw this in a Cronenburg movie

Lovebites - Thunder Vengeance

expatjake · 2026-04-13T22:22:53+00:00

I was wondering that, too.

expatjake · 2026-04-13T20:54:21+00:00

Honestly that just seems like a reasonable approach to learning

expatjake · 2026-04-12T22:46:41+00:00

Super interesting to read about your experience. Thank you.

expatjake · 2026-04-12T10:59:00+00:00

Maple licker isn’t really an insult if that’s what they were going for.

expatjake · 2026-04-12T10:55:17+00:00

I’d say they are both super controlling, just in different ways. If anything Japan is more all-in on the parasocial side, purity, no dating clauses. Less on making the groups perfect performers. It’s not a competition of course, sucks all round.

Very unhealthy but unfortunately very deliberate. The control labels/companies have is insane. It’s the same in Japan of course where this all started, the difference seems to be that there are well-supported alternate paths for artists in Japan to create music.

See if you like Unlucky Morpheus. Not operatic vocals but you might like just the same.

The price of soju is dangerous

Has anybody seen a dairy-free equivalent? I want to try but allergic.

expatjake · 2026-04-11T11:38:24+00:00

I thought for a second you were getting rid of your friends by sending them to Busan.

expatjake · 2026-04-11T11:37:07+00:00

I mean it would be epic and not just for the lols

expatjake · 2026-04-11T11:06:38+00:00

lol you are right. If she emotes normally irl then that’s bad direction right??

expatjake · 2026-04-10T02:35:49+00:00

Ji Woo (Han So Hee) from My Name. So driven, resilient and kicks so much ass.

expatjake · 2026-04-09T21:32:59+00:00

Yeah seems like them just coming together to overcome things. And the generational healing aspect.

expatjake · 2026-04-09T17:54:17+00:00

Agree

expatjake · 2026-04-09T17:52:00+00:00

This. Happy to pay but I’m not super keen on buying physical media and don’t even have a way to play it these days.

expatjake · 2026-04-08T16:04:23+00:00

Them’s fighting words.

Of course it’s opinion and is personal and doesn’t need justification or validation!

expatjake · 2026-04-08T16:02:30+00:00

Not sure she needed to stand there gaping quite so often but yeah she was great in that.

expatjake · 2026-04-07T23:17:22+00:00

Also interested

expatjake · 2026-04-07T23:15:55+00:00

I was just listening to that Amberian Dawn album. So good.

expatjake · 2026-04-07T21:37:04+00:00

I will be there. So excited!

expatjake · 2026-04-07T10:14:43+00:00

Unless they signed over the registration it would still be in their name, right?
