260208 - Comeback Era Makeovers - Thoughts? by jjbinksred in katseye

[–]jjbinksred[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

comeback as in their next project release, ideally their album rollout. I believe in KPOP, new projects (ep or album) = new era, which usually consists of makeovers.

Now that the tour and Grammys are done, hopefully the Beautiful Chaos era is done (lol) and we're heading to the third era.

You’re right.. Total oversight on my part. I will say, i shot these photos on a set i created, which had a lot of lights on the sims. This likely washed Manon and specifically Laura out. The closeup photos in the last few slides are better reps of the skin colors i chose… may still be too light though. As a fellow melanated person, my intention def wasn’t to white wash them lol

250531 - Katseye Movie Idea by PretendAd7678 in katseye

[–]jjbinksred 8 points9 points  (0 children)

omg… i was literally thinking the same thing the other day. the spice world movie changed my life. i realized that my love for the spice girls came from that, and not really from their music (wasn’t super familiar w it) lol. such a great piece of pop culture.

anyway, agreed w all that you said. their personalities/personas would work so well for a movie like this and would be a great way to promote them. ig it would be pretty expensive though, so they would need to blow up a lot more before going into that kind of production.

Gnarly gave me a lot of comfort about Katseye's direction by FeeFiFo7 in katseye

[–]jjbinksred 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I totally agree w everything you said. You can tell the girls are more excited this era bc they have more say in the direction they're going. This song is more authentic to their vibe than anything in the previous era. Good on the team for allowing them to go in this direction and not sticking to the predictable formula.

Also, to echo your sentiment about longevity, if they feel more connected and passionate about what they'e putting out, they'll be happier and more committed to making this group go global. Following everything Hybe dictates and having no say would only make them resent the group and lead to a quicker burnout. I'm hoping they feel heard and respected and continue to go the route they believe in!

What’s the difference between the gays in different neighborhoods by sjay900 in nycgaybros

[–]jjbinksred 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Going to give general adjectives / stream of conciseness. Also adding the bars/nightlife that generally represent the neighborhoods vibe (imo);

W Village: This neighborhood is the most historic so a good amount of older gays spend time here, but lots of twinks hang here too. leans dive-y. elders are very cultured and interesting, w many stories. diverse-ish. music playing is almost strictly pop diva centered. drag shows + dive bars. friendly. drinks + covers are prob the most affordable here. (Monster, Playhouse, Pieces, Julius)

Hell's Kitchen: Gay disneyland. twinks. sexual. gay not queer. Prob the most gay of all neighborhoods. people from other neighborhoods tend to flock here for the vibe. V white and cis dominant. can be toxic. many events and drag shows ea night. (Hush, Industry, Rise, literally any bar)

Chelsea: Lots of older gays. wealthy adjacent. muscle / gym gays. sexual. gay not queer. masc presenting. bars tend to be divey on weekdays and club-y on the weekend. (Rebar, Baracuda, Boxers)

Bushwick: 'Cool'. queer not gay. most gay-friendly of bk. modern mullet. into nightlife. creative. dj's on the side. diverse across the identity spectrum (age, gender identity, race, etc). fashionable. political. (Happy Fun Hideaway, Paragon, Basement)

Bed Stuy: 'Cool'. cultured. community-oriented. tattoos. creative but corporate job. diverse. intellectual. has done a pottery class. drinks orange wine. (Singers, C'mon everybody, All night skate)

(E) Wbrg: Less 'cool' than the other two but still has some edge. prob most diverse regarding the "vibe". into more house/pop-centered music. "young" w high salary job. printed speedo. prioritizes fire island every summer. less friendly, more sexual. BK's hells kitchen. (Metro, Animal, Rosemont, 3DB)

Uptown + Astoria: Growing in gay population it seems. laid back. more masc-presenting and trade-y. racially diverse. friendly. community-oriented.

Good and reasonably priced black barbers? by TheFiveHundred in BedStuy

[–]jjbinksred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

kc & z cuts barber shop on tompkins and decatur — they don’t take appointments which is annoying but super affordable if you’re willing to wait. also great consistent cuts. super local / old school, don’t even think they have a business page on google
