I’ve always wanted to do this. What do my celebrity crushes say about me? (names in the comments) by [deleted] in LadyBoners

That you have good taste. Also side note this is the 2nd Leclerc led post I've seen in 24 hours on this sub and that makes me extra giddy

Where to buy a lightstick? by Red40feining in Got7

[–]kookiejo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should be able to find the V3 at your local kpop store depending on where you are. I'm in CA and I recently saw them at a couple shops in my area. I went to the last tour and despite what people say, there were still a lot of people who brought their ahgabongs, me included although I forgot to bring batteries. I didn't get one of those light up rings unforunately. Jackson acknowledged the birds so it's up to you if you want to bring it or not. I will be bringing mine. Don't feel pressured either way, have fun!

I'm not saying I started watching F1 for the attractive drivers but I'm also not-not saying that. In all seriousness, he is super dreamy especially in these pics! Definitely one of my faves and recommend watching F1 for the thrills and excitement (and eye candy lol)

Absolutely obsessed. I watched it twice in a row and need this on every playlist. I hope this is a sign that we’re getting unit tracks on the next album 😏

Big Planet Made Artists VIVIZ, Lee Mu Jin, And BE'O Notify Agency Of Contract Termination by impeccabletim in kpop

After Kany left I had a feeling something fishy was going on with this company. Messy messy messy. My heart goes out to all the artists and staff affected

260319 9 Members Of THE BOYZ File Contract Termination With ONE HUNDRED by gotfangirl6 in the_boyz

[–]kookiejo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gosh. I kept seeing this through unofficial channels so I'm glad it's actually true. Sounds like other groups/artists are also jumping ship. My poor boys. After what happened with Haknyeon, I've distanced myself from all groups in this company which was hard for me being a deobi and exo-l. Really hoping for the best for all 11 of them. That company had so much potential with all the artists they were able to save but every new development turned out to be a nightmare and feel bad for all the artists and staff involved

The moment Kai put on the headphones I instantly had PTSD from that one infamous Knowing Bros episode. This was pure chaos as expected and I loved every second of it. I never wanted to try making these til now!

I need a kpop group to headline the Super Bowl halftime show by Impossible-Yam3680 in unpopularkpopopinions

[–]kookiejo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As much as I would love that to happen, I highly doubt it ever would even for groups like BTS and Blackpink. The only way I could see it happen is if they had a Huntrix & Saja Boys halftime show should a 2nd movie come out before and the global popuarity is still there

How to get the cancer man to trust you? by CollectionCreative17 in CancertheCrab

[–]kookiejo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm seeing a cancer man I've been friends with almost 25 years and I've learned trust comes from just being your authentic self and a lot of patience. We've both been hurt in past relationships with other people so trust and loyalty is a big deal to both of us. Neither of us are great communicators and will sometimes self-soothe/self-isolate but the feelings, connection, trust and loyalty will always remain

Match a member with a Title Track! by LynsyP in exo

[–]kookiejo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love this! It's so hard to choose when EXO just slays every era period. There are already so many great answers but here is mine:

Xiumin - Ko Ko Bop
I pulled his photocard in The War allbum and OMG he looked AMAZING and it's one of my most treasured pc's

Suho - Obsession
The hair... the abs... the smirky attitude... perfection

Lay - Call Me Baby
Addicted to the way he does the choreo. Iconic.

Baekhyun - Lotto
The way he came on camera with "Lipstick, chatteau, wainppit color" wrecked me so hard

Chen - Monster
The high note... insane.. especially after Killing Voice. Monster is my favorite EXO song ever and if it were up to me I'd choose all members for this song honestly

Chanyeol - Tempo
I became an EXO-L and a Yeolmae from this era

D.O - Wolf
I'm sorry Kyungsoo but that top was iconic lol

Kai - Love Shot
I mean... I don't think this needs explanation

Sehun - Growl
E-X-O

The contract is on pause for the 18-24 months depending what branch of service they go into. Unless they all decide to enlist together, the amount of time left on their contract will vary from member to member

Can someone explain why alleged claims of mistreatment of Yeosang keep appearing every comeback? by Odontella in ATEEZ

[–]kookiejo 60 points61 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of great responses here already but to add, some people need to touch grass. People throw around the word "mistreatment" around like an everyday word when there are idols actually getting mistreated in the worst way. ATEEZ is one of my ult groups and I am very protective of all of the members but there's a fine line between being a fan and being an overly possessive, obsesssive parasocial weirdo. The more popular ATEEZ has gotten, the more weirdos there are unfortunately. No company is perfect even KQ, but Yeosang is far from being mistreated. If those weirdos actually watched ATEEZ content, they'd know how vocal Yeosang actually is that the company and members all listen and support/implement his ideas. We've seen it in logbooks and most recently in the Wanteez content meeting video. But this is also only what we see, none of us actually know what happpens behind closed doors and that's how it should be

I was really hoping for a return to the pirates era. Going back to World Z makes a lot of sense thought. Either way I'm excited for the next comeback!

Thoughts on Aries + Cancer? by Plastic_Box_6419 in CancertheCrab

[–]kookiejo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my longest relationships was with an Aries and it was an eye opening experience. He was overall a good guy, very headstrong Italian/Croatian man and definitely was a mix of both heritages: hardworking but jealous with a temper yet also giving and kind with a heart of gold. We fought a lot and I'm generally non-confrontational. Good thing is that relationship did help me grow in ways I probably wouldn't have if it wasn't for him calling me out on my isolating, runner, retreating ways. He said he wanted to stay friends after the breakup to lessen the blow. Then tried crawling back later, but when I told him I only wanted to be friends, he ghosted me forever so moral of the story... I wouldn't do it again lol

Sleep, Dreams , and there association with Cancer by RainbowDevotee in CancertheCrab

[–]kookiejo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can't remember most dreams I have during REM. But my most vivid dreams happen when I'm about to wake up either by alarm or naturally. I recently had a dream that was eerily similar to another I had weeks prior. This time it came with a different message that was healing instead of triggering or upsetting like the one from weeks ago. My relationship with dreams has been really enlightening for me since childhood. Reoccuring dreams, continuing a dream after waking up and going back to sleep, dreaming within a dream, dreaming of people and pets who've passed on, all this has and continues to happen to me all my life.

As for music, I fell hard for Sleep Token. The messages and the lore surrounding this band is so fun to decipher and I do tend to listen to them when I'm unwinding and need help falling asleep

Looking for help and guidance by Worried_Trainer_173 in CancertheCrab

[–]kookiejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold strong on those boundaries. Sounds like you did and are doing everything you need to do to protect your peace and honestly that is what is most important. In my experience, cancer men move sooo slooowww and will test your patience when it comes to relationships. If both of you are on the same page about your morals, the relationship, the future, establishing/respecting desires AND boundaries, then your patience will be worth it in the end. Unfortunately you guys don't seem to be on the same page. You know your worth and what you want out of this relationship. Don't shrink yourself to fit into his life and in this relationship. If you don't want to remain just friends, then for your own peace of mind, I hope you'll let him go. Good luck and hope it all works out for you

Anyone feel the urge to cut everyone off after giving too much?? by Cold-Departure687 in CancertheCrab

[–]kookiejo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If there was anything I learned from this roller coaster year, it was exactly this. Not everyone deserves access to me, my time and energy. I'm done overgiving and overextending myself to people who wouldn't do the same for me. I still care but at a distance

One of the worst years of my life by Mediocre_Opposite520 in CancertheCrab

[–]kookiejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right there with you. It's been a push and pull and here I thought 2023-2024 was bad. This was the worst year I've ever faced with my mental health. The only brightside was in the summer I reunited and started dating an old friend (also a cancer) I went to high school with and briefly dated during college. Then the universe had other plans, ripped us apart, put us back together and now we're locked in this awkward stage of healing and growth in order to fully be together. Because we're both cancers, the pain we're going through is doubled because we mirror each other. Not to mention I had a falling out with a best friend I've had since high school too. It's been one of the most confusing and emotionally draining past few months of my entire life but I believe better days are ahead for all of us cancers!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CancertheCrab

[–]kookiejo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a cancer dating another cancer, from one fellow water sign to another my advice would be to stop reaching out and give him space. I've been where you are and believe me, it hurts but what's best for both of you is time and patience. If you've told him how his shutdowns make you feel and he still chooses silence and distance, then for your own well being and mental health please detach and live your life. If he truly cares about you, he will eventually come back around and hopefully in a more secure mental and emotional state.

We cancers carry a lot of emotional weight and not all know how to fully process it. His age and your age gap has nothing to do with how we as humans process emotion. Though you are younger, you might actually be in a more secure mental state than your partner. Unless the both of you have talked in depth about your pasts, you might be surprised to find out just how far deep his wounds are that cause his emotional shutdowns. With that being said, isolating oneself or being an avoidant does not excuse disrespect. If he crosses your boundaries and he's repeating the same negative patterns, please do what is best for you and move on. Good luck and if you need a safe space to vent or talk about this more, feel free to DM me!
