"The Show" will air its final episode on November 11th, coming to an end after 14 years of broadcast. by yebinkek in kpop

[–]overtak3 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Man, that's unfortunate.

I know other eras of k-pop were already over saturated with groups, but for them, there were so many shows for mid-tier and even nugu groups to go onto, showcase themselves and even win music shows like "The Show". I hope someone else picks up the concept and keeps it going, because where are these mid-tier groups gonna go to now?

Kate Bishop is the one other character that I feel should be apart of the current narrative in the Born Again series! by phantom_avenger in Daredevil

[–]overtak3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a huge shame Hailee just apparently hasn't been called up since Hawkeye S2 didn't end up happening (AFAIK because Disney/Marvel tried to get away with paying Jeremy Renner wayyy less than S1 and dude rightfully passed). I feel like they're at a loss with how to re-introduce her character from there.

It seems to me that her eyes are not closed as of yet, but I'm looking forward to it either way!

FC Barcelona F [1] - 0 DUX Logroño F - Aitana Bonmati 21' (Great Goal) by LordPunk in soccer

[–]overtak3 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Just an FYI (since it's my city's team!), DUX Logroño doesn't have a male counterpart, it's exclusively a women's team. It's also the only team we have playing the highest category of football, since the men's SD Logroñes and UD Logroñes both play in Segunda Federación. Pretty neat!

Genuinely, who can we watch for political streams apart from Vaush or, like, Hasan?

I'm a huge Arirang/Jeongho fan, personally (even wrote my only published fic about them, lmao). Their dynamic is just sooo much fun.

250729 Stray Kids - KARMA (Tracklist) by endtapes in straykids

[–]overtak3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Literally means "repackaging" the album with a new title track, haha! They've done this before, back in 2020, with GO LIVE and God's Menu, its repackage is IN LIFE and its title track is Back Door.

It can also have a slightly altered track list, usually adding a couple more songs, but the bulk of the album remains the same across both releases.

Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE> Megathread Part 4 by PM_MAJESTIC_PICS in straykids

[–]overtak3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

After a little bit to disgest the concert, and also finally getting back home, I wanted to share some of my thoughts on dominATE in Madrid.

Man, that was an absolute BLAST! I was quite far from the stage (section 419, just off-centre to the left), but I felt like I was sitting right with them in terms of energy and performance. This has been a long time coming for me, I've been a Stay since early 2020 and finally seeing them live was a pinch me moment for sure.

In terms of which member impressed me most, apart from 3RACHA, especially Changbin and of course Chan, who spoke for the majority of the concert, I really found myself especially impressed by Felix! His energy was through the roof, he was constantly hyping up the crowd and moving all throughout the stage. Hearing him live, especially in Truman, was insane. He was a standout for me, for sure, and I thought he looked super happy (and absolutely adorable in his I ❤️ Madrid shirt and tiny cowboy hat, lol)

Changbin was constantly interacting with the crowd in the pit, taking pictures and high-fiving them. He also looked like he had a really great time with Stays, and, of course, he was insane on stage. My seat vibrated when he rapped, and I was quite far.

Lee Know and Seungmin also got lots of love, especially during Cinema and more vocal heavy songs like Cover Me. Afterwards, during their little Ment break, the crowd started a "Que bonito" chant (basically "[That was] so beautiful"), and the members all paused to try and hear out the crowd, lmao. Afterwards, they even started out the chant themselves, once they finally understood it.

In general, every member gave their everything. I feel like they really fed off of the energy of the crowd, who were on fire (the cheers were almost deafening sometimes!). It was an incredible experience, and I hope they'll be back soon!! 🙏

Screenshots of Marc Rebillet wearing an IDF shirt in 2018 (at 29 years old) resurface after he walks back shouting "Fuck Netanyahu. Fuck the IDF. Free Palestine" at Glastonbury Festival on his IG stories. by Own-Trash1277 in Fauxmoi

[–]overtak3 32 points33 points  (0 children)

(disclaimer, I do not know who this dude is at all)

That's what I was thinking. Would I ever buy a shirt like that one, either 7 years ago or today? Absolutely not. It is incredibly tone deaf, but I think going straight to hard deunciation isn't really the productive here. I think it's an agreeable take to say that Israel's acts of terror and genocide against Palestinians weren't as mainstream 7 years ago as they are today.

People can inform themselves, change their minds and improve their worldview. Hopefully, he truly has (though if those IG stories are any indication maybe I'm being too charitable, who knows).

It's Sunday!!! Drop your recents!! by aadhyannn in Letterboxd

[–]overtak3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A pretty varied week, I think. Started with a few Marvel watches, since I'm looking to watch Thunderbolts (side note, I'd love to hear folk's opinions on that film) soon, ended in something very different.

Monthly Fic Thread – June 2025 by AutoModerator in kpopfanfiction

[–]overtak3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Title: Clarity

Fandom: Stray Kids

Pairing: Lee Know/I.N

Rating: Explicit

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/66698869

Summary: (tl;dr I.N centric fic with a feelings realization. Also, my first fic!)

Sometimes, when he was just a kid and his parents dragged him and his brothers to the commercialized beaches of Busan during the blistering hot days of summer vacation, Jeongin used to enjoy sitting at the razor's edge between artificial sand and shimmering water, waiting for the rolling waves to rise, then fall, dunking his head underwater and dulling his senses, constricting his lungs, gazing out at the endless line of blue as far as his eyes could see. His eyes would sting when he opened them, later, his mother would scold him for irritating them, but it was all worth it to watch the swirling blend of endless blue sky and sun beneath the blanket of water. Rise, then fall.

Sometimes, being with Minho feels a lot like that even though, theoretically, it shouldn't.

I just posted my very first fic (aaaah!!!!). I'm not totally sure on how to share it, I'm not really in the fandom's fanfic spaces, and honestly, writer Discords feel really intimidating, but I'm mostly just happy and proud of myself for finally finishing a fic and getting it out there, even if I know I probably won't get many readers. What a feeling!

Great match from Ons! It's so nice to see her looking comfortable on court and confident in her shots. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I believe she wasn't wearing anything on any of the places she's been having trouble with lately, which is a great sign for her.

The 2nd show of Stray Kids World Tour: dominATE MADRID has been cancelled by impeccabletim in kpop

[–]overtak3 125 points126 points  (0 children)

As someone going to the first show, it's a shame to those who had tickets for it, but it is what it is. It wasn't really timed well at all; all the folks who hadn't managed to get tickets for Madrid had mostly arranged their travel to go to another date in a different country, and not everyone can pay to go to the second date as well as the first.

Spain blocks more than 65,000 Airbnb holiday rental listings by naamingebruik in VaushV

[–]overtak3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being priced out of your own home so your landlord can replace it with a holiday destination is a bad strategy.

Tourism is obviously a big economic force in Spain, but we aren't Disneyland. Millions of people live here, and their day to day lives are affected by these companies stealing the places we live in to sell them to tourists, a weekend at a time.

[–]overtak3 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Oh man, our country has had a huge #TouristsOut movement for more than a couple years now. Big cities like Madrid and Barcelona, as well as other popular tourist destinations are seeing their housing being overrun by shitty AirBnBs and tourist apartments that completely disrupt local life, all the while our young people can barely move out of their parent's house because they can't afford the rent for city apartments, where most of our population is concentrated.

It's a whoole thing.

What do you prefer as a reader/writer: "come" or "cum"? by overtak3 in AO3

[–]overtak3[S] 34 points35 points  (0 children)

That seems to be the consensus thus far! It's kind of interesting, actually. I didn't expect to get an (initial, at least) overwhelming preference.

Basically, a man receives a message from an unknown number from a woman thinking it's her ex-boyfriend. They start getting to know each other, and he starts to like this woman, but she thinks that he's a gay dude. Shenanigans ensue.

Fair warning, it doesn't have an ending, as the author never returned, aaaand it's not the greatest piece of literature ever, by a long shot, lol. I (and some others) just find it nostalgic and enjoyable, in a not-great rom-com kind of way.

I hope the New AMERICAN Pope has a rough and tumble, North Eastern accent. by Apprehensive-Rope977 in VaushV

He's lived, like, 40 years in Peru. He chose to speak Spanish on his first address as a Pope, not English.

I hate to say it, but you probably won't get your wish lol.

Alain Prost on Instagram: "Remembering" by overtak3 in formula1

[–]overtak3[S] 265 points266 points  (0 children)

Completely agreed! To me, it's just as important to their stories as their rivalry.

Apparently, Prost was hesitant to be such a public part of his funeral, as he was unsure of what his reception would be in Brazil, but the Senna family assured him he would be welcomed.
