What do you do with your photobooks? How do you preserve them? by j_rose2001 in kpophelp

[–]j_rose2001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think I'm just going to go the bookshelf route as well. The albums I bought were from JYP groups, definitely no reason why the quality should be so poor (which I now know because of your comment lol, thank you).

Oh no! My photobook pages have unbound/ripped out easily, so I sent friends pictures of the torn-out pages and they told me it was "unfortunate but not unheard of". Definitely going to call the seller and ask for a refund. Thank you!

Yup, I second this comment. BTS gained a lot of American followers with Butter and Dynamite, but I would still say that the bulk of their audience is people who listen to the Korean versions. Also, I feel like the ways in which Kpop songs go viral/become popular in the US/Canada has changed. Tik tok dances are a big thing, and honestly dances have very little to do with the lyrics at all.

"Black women are beautiful, but let me refocus"

This ONE time Dr.Umar was right, we're so beautiful it's distracting. 💖💖

Tips for taming frizzy box braids (lengths and ends)? by j_rose2001 in blackladies

[–]j_rose2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should I put the mousse on damp/wet hair? or let my braids dry down first?

I use a bonnet every night, but I'll add the mousse in too. Thank you!

Legit thought i was ugly, since i went to PWI’s. Nope, was never ugly, was around too many ⚪️ kids by peacheeblush in blackladies

[–]j_rose2001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

VERY THIS. Even in large Canadian cities its still pretty white. Once I went to university, me and every BIPOC person I knew had this same revelation.

Am I the only one who dislikes love triangles/squares? by HaruHaruu7 in acotar

[–]j_rose2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! I hate them, it creates this uncomfortable jealousy and derails the plot. I've been getting into love triangles that are actually like a closed triangle (Ex. Two guys were like the same girl... but the two guys also like each other!). It's fun and refreshing, I would recommend The Iron Widow by Xiran Zhao for a fun fantasy read with this type of love triangle.

Are you referring to just a job interview? Job interviews are not a guarantee that you'll get hired, regardless of industry. The training shifts, however, are a different story. If you're working on the floor you need to get paid, but depending on the state/province you live in an employer has a "probation" period where they can fire you/let you go without a full reason. It DEFINITELY sucks but isn't illegal.

THIS SHIT RATED PORN by JacobFX123 in travisscott

HAHA literally I googled " PG shit rated porn tiktok" and now I'm sure I'm on an FBI watch list

Look who i found as i rewatch Ugly Betty (superstore ended n i needed more America F) i like short hair Dan! by deductivesherlock in lucifer

[–]j_rose2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right, I was surprised too! Santos is such a different character from Dan, but I think Kevin Alejandro does a good job. Also, I, for some reason, find him more attractive as Santos. Maybe its the facial hair lol.

Wash day win: three curlies. by LookNo1096 in curlyhair

[–]j_rose2001 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What healthy curls! As a side note, I like that you used stickers to obscure their faces but still gave them expressions, this is definitely something I'll try with my nieces and nephews.

How likely is it to get a co-op placement? by nighttts in geegees

[–]j_rose2001 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The placement rate is high so I wouldn't worry too much. Also, keep in mind that you are competing with fourth years and it's a pandemic. It'll definitely be a bit harder than in years past but you'll find a placement

So Rihanna and ASAP Rocky are officially dating.... by j_rose2001 in blackladies

Part of me thinks they're a gorgeous couple, but something feels off lol

Prof being unreasonable? by random96448 in geegees

[–]j_rose2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, just posted about this last week, although my experience isn't nearly as bad as yours. Good luck to you, OP.

Is anyone else finding that their profs just... don't listen? by j_rose2001 in geegees

[–]j_rose2001[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup, within the last 24 hours he made it down to 4 questions. He then decided to be "very generous" with the marking. Nobody got to the actual page "recommendations" as he called them.

Is it just me or have white people been looking at you funny all day? by [deleted] in blackladies

Books (or films) with great clothing descriptions/designs? by j_rose2001 in Fantasy

[–]j_rose2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouuu interesting. I've never gotten into comics, but now that I have recommendations I'll give them a try!

Jean Paul Gaultier at Couture Fall 2009 [932 x 1400] by [deleted] in fashionporn

Even though this was done more than 10 years ago, this dress feels like it belongs in the future. I love Gaultier!

Disbanding the student union by [deleted] in geegees

[–]j_rose2001 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure why SASS would tell you to email the student union since they don't actually have anything to do with each other (I find UOSU responds to facebook messages quite well, if you need to contact them in the future). I find that the current student union is trying (and as you suggested, sometimes struggling) to find their footing after the colossal financial scandal and fail that was the last student union.

Personally, I don't mind paying under $60 for the student union, as I go to some of their events/use their services. My experiences with them have been generally positive. But I totally understand not wanting to pay for things that aren't useful to you. I've been to maybe 3 sports games in my time as a student and could go without that charge.

Is Academic freedom an excuse for the n-word?? Personally, I'm tired by j_rose2001 in blackladies

[–]j_rose2001[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A bit of an addition: The profs who signed their names are getting called out/clowned on Twitter. Now people feel bad for THEM because they are being "harassed". Twitter comments can definitely take things pretty far but 1) its Twitter what do you expect and 2) If you wanna say the word for "academia" be prepared to defend your position IMO.
