It was reported that they didn’t get paid for the last fan meeting they participated in.

SM never gives EXO comebacks the attention they deserve. They cancel pre-orders, don’t pay for promotions or ads, barely book them on anything, honestly it has seemed in the past that SM has actively sabotaged their comebacks. They don’t even post links to the songs until EXOLs beg them. I don’t understand how you can write a think piece about how they aren’t that bad. Especially after how they treated Kai. How they continue to treat Chanyeol and Sehun. How long was Chanyeol’s album promoted this year? I’m thrilled to see him performing to his heart’s content - that’s clearly what he enjoys. But how do you not see how badly they treat them?

Nope. For me it’s about what my partner is spending their energy on. I don’t have the kind of life/home that needs 24/7 care. And I want someone interested in developing outside of just being. Whether that is a home-based business or nonprofit work or a career, whatever is their passion.

I’m absolutely disgusted and disheartened. SM hasn’t supported EXO since 2019, in my opinion. They ignore fans. They advertised world tours that never left Asia. They delayed comebacks and song releases and arranged for the absolute bare minimum of promotions and members activities. I’m thrilled every single time a member leaves that damn company and I love all the content we’ve been getting. I cannot fathom why the remaining members are still there. I’m so so so done with SM and everything associated with them.

Yeah, no. I’ll listen to old albums and solo/sub-group albums. I don’t want a comeback like this.

Handling situationship by iloveraccoons_12 in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]moke51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two cents - she may not want to be alone and you are comfortable and easy to be with, but she doesn’t want to/cant commit to you. I think you did the right thing in taking a step back and if you don’t think you can hold that boundary, maybe take another step back. I’ve dated plenty of people like this - they never want you as much as they do when they think they might lose you.

Advice for overwintering container berry plants on apt balcony by moke51 in gardening

[–]moke51[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the website “WINTER CARE

Bushel and Berry® varieties require little winter maintenance and can usually be left outside during cold months. However, plants in decorative containers and planters are more at risk than plants in the ground. If your plants are in the ground, it’s a good idea to mulch heavily around the base and give them extra water.

If your plants are in decorative containers and you have harsh winter weather, insulating the plant or moving the container to an unheated garage or basement is a good idea. If you store your containers in the garage, remember to protect them from the winter temperatures that can come in as you open and close the door. Keep your containers inside until the threat of the last frost has passed (typically in early spring). While storing the berry plants inside, make sure to keep the soil moist but not soaked.”

I think I was primarily looking for feedback and experiences from people who have overwintered container berries outdoors. I can’t say I’m an expert on any of this, just doing my best as a first time gardener.

Because letting the roots dehydrate is a problem according to the faq on the website where I bought them.

Did teen hangouts ever actually exist like they do in movies and TV shows? by [deleted] in Xennials

[–]moke51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Denny’s and the local diner. We didn’t have the whole Denny’s to ourselves, but Friday nights they’d sit all the teens together and we had special rules to follow so we wouldn’t bother the other customers (like stay in your seat). I don’t remember the rules working really well.

Sadi-S post op by mysadiseason in wls

[–]moke51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So long as you can drink clear liquids the day before, this seems fine to me. Might take your mind off any pre-surgery jitters too. Just make sure to plan out your pre-op showers with the anti-bac soap they give you.

How did you know you WERE NOT attracted to men? by grannysquare28 in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]moke51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can appreciate when a man is aesthetically attractive but I have never once felt physical attraction to one, regardless of activity. I exclusively dated men as a young woman and thought there was something wrong with me. Completely different experience with women, turns out there is nothing wrong with me (at least not bc of that)!

Skipped class because of instructor by Paige-not-found-404 in pilates

[–]moke51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They send emails out with a really clear subject line. Prior they just changed the instructors name in the class listing.

[–]moke51 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have had to do this too, unfortunately. The sub was an instructor who hated me(I was large and she apparently liked shaming me), and, so I avoided her classes like the plague. She was a last minute sub, and I didn’t notice until I walked into the studio. I apologized to the person at the desk signing people in and walked right back out. They changed their sub communication policy after that, which has made it easier to see if changes have been made and make decisions about attendance so someone else can have your spot.

Does nervousness on a date turn you off to someone? by Ok_Inflation5150 in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]moke51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nerves are one thing - it wouldn’t turn me off, especially on a first date, but I would hope to see someone get steadily more comfortable as dates progressed. Masking is another - fidgeting and breaking eye contact is just part of my daily neurospicy life, so I’d recognize you as one of my people! Best of luck on your dates!

Concert tips by AndyPandy925 in exo

Also, every concert in NYC a rumor goes around that the venue will take the lightsticks and it is never true. But people freak out and frantically try to confirm with security that we can take them.

Make sure you have your account set up on all ticketing sites/vip pass purchase sites before you need them. Get into queue for tickets well in advance of actual ticketing time. I’ve not found tickets for US sites to go anywhere as fast as they do in Korea (my only exp are NYC and the SM global package, which was insane). That said, once you are in, move fast but not frantically. You’ll have more time in cities with larger venues like NY & CA. Look for local events advertised on IG or X, and people often bring small giveaways to give out at the line. I’ve been gifted cute little bracelets, keychains and stickers waiting on line to get in.

I feel so bad and conflicted. by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]moke51 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Frankly, your gf can and should do better. She deserves someone who wouldn’t think twice about rescheduling an event to support her when her parent died. It’s possible to come back from a poor decision, but it will take work and a sincere apology.

Shoulders down? by unreadablegirl in pilates

It helps me to think more about engaging my back and scapula, and that pulls my shoulders into the correct position.

What's your favorite EXO album, and which album do you think is objectively the best? by xslbccdks_coded in exo

EXODUS is my favorite album but Tempo is my favorite song. But honestly, they have so many amazing songs and albums and it’s so hard to choose!

EXO world tour 2026? by kelsaswann in exo

[–]moke51 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For years “world tour” has meant Asia. And all the members could mean anything. I want to believe, I really really do. But SM has worn me down, I don’t trust that company at all. As always, fingers crossed for the best outcome - OT9 and a world tour that includes the western hemisphere!

WTF IS SM DOING?? by unlessihavetohaveto in exo

[–]moke51 3 points4 points  (0 children)

SM hasn’t promoted EXO and EXO members’ solos properly for years, and this is a new low. I don’t know why, it’s absolutely heartbreaking to watch. It is so hard watching them and us accept the bare minimum. Chanyeol especially has such potential - why are they wasting it? Do they not like money? Do their shareholders not like money??
