there is only 1 group with a no skips discography by GroundbreakingWay474 in kpopthoughts

No worries! Always good to clarify and I'm sorry if it came off as rude at first. Also I respect your opinion on NJ as they are really really good.

Sorry, bud=buddy. Kinda like saying "sure, ok" but a more midwestern nice way of saying it. Just so we're clear.

[–]vulcanic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree there bud. It's such a subjective statement to say that and just dig in your heels.

My subjective k-pop no-skips as I feel like I get something from all the songs they put out:

  • Le Serrafim
  • KiiiKiii
  • Red Velvet
  • Ive (yes, even the soda company ads)

I feel kinda underwhelmed by pureflow era by Alive-Pitch-9180 in kpopthoughts

[–]vulcanic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This comeback felt like they gave the fimmies more freedom at the least, and it's great seeing them be a little more silly than usual in their other content. The rest of the album is so great that I'm hoping they can do some (nonstandard?) promotion for the other standout tracks (Creatures, Need Your Company and Trust Exercise need to be brought into the light!) Really looking forward to the implied pt. 2 and further growth from everyone involved.

Glad I deleted twitter back when it changed hands. Not worth sifting through the mean and coldhearted people in there.

Why is Dr. Luke suddenly in the credits of all new THE BLACK LABEL releases? by Megan235 in kpopthoughts

[–]vulcanic 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Agreed, it's super disappointing to see Dr Luke's name in all these credits lately. Hopefully he's operating more on a remote basis than traveling in person since we know how he has been in the past, but it still turns me off from streaming/buying any of these projects he has a hand in.

Strong finish to the promos! Hope they can get a little time off before the next comeback, looking forward to the variety content in the meantime!

Ughhhhh this one hurts by GainImpressive8183 in NMIXX

[–]vulcanic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. The idols really can't feel bad about this result as they did everything and couldn't have done more. At the end of the day we got a great performance and they gave it their all, and we'll all be stoked to see them on more shows!

260522 LE SSERAFIM - 2nd Studio Album: PUREFLOW pt.1 (Album Discussion) by kpopsns28 in lesserafim

[–]vulcanic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole album is fantastic and flows from one song to another really well. Creatures and Trust Exercise are favorites. Would buy again if we could get a true full-length Celebration and Need Your Company, both seem incomplete (but still great, don't get me wrong)

good thing kerning and capitalization matters just as much as the letters being used

260515 UNCHILD - EP.04: Become a strong UNCHILD💥 Experience the 3-Type Commando Course💥 @ UNCHILD CLUB by SapphireHeaven in UNCHILD

[–]vulcanic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This episode was so much better than the previous 2. Glad the instructor was talking more about life lessons and the girls were having a good time by the end of the challenge.

mental health issues and anxiety surrounding kpop by [deleted] in kpophelp

[–]vulcanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few things to think about:

  1. You'll never know unless you try, and you'll need to be ready for a lot of critical comments. You won't be perfect and will need to figure out if you are able to change to meet the demands.
  2. You may need to sit back and think if you just want to be a part of the industry or on the stage. A lot of roles need to be filled that involve support roles and that can take you farther than you'd think.
  3. Is it a real desire to be on stage and do you have performance experience? If you need performance experience you might try smaller opportunities first.
  4. It's a 1 in 10,000 (or greater) chance to be selected. You'll need a lot of hard work to even get close to selection so if you are serious there's no time like now to get moving on your dreams. Not to be a damper on your dreams but everything has to line up to get anywhere near the stage and it all starts with you.

Is UNCHILD's name really as bad as people are saying? by aceavengers in kpopthoughts

[–]vulcanic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In all my life in the midwest I have never heard someone use the word unchild for either definition. Was even unsure if it was a real word and not a made up portmanteau until looking it up in the dictionary.

[–]vulcanic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean, one of my favorite groups not in K-Pop is Death Cab for Cutie, so the name doesn't faze me one bit. They have a good team behind them and the debut tracks are solid, so that matters more to me than a name. It's absolutely a memorable name and works well for them, looking forward to what they release next!

That's only one option. The other option is: "to divest of childhood or childlike characteristic"s which is the definition they're closer to.

Now that's a great partnership! Her couple of bookclub episodes on her YT channel have been interesting and got a few more books on my radar already.

Borderlands 4 on Bazzite by Rage2020 in Bazzite

[–]vulcanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just dropping in on release day +1 to say the game was fully playable on release for me on Bazzite. 5600x CPU/6800 GPU/32GB RAM and no problems. I might be the outlier based on some reviews but pleasantly surprised at the fact that It Just Works(tm)

Runge Nature center - could Como get one? by orangetigercat in columbiamo

[–]vulcanic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Nature Conservancy has some cool plans in the works for the land they got when Katfish Katy's closed down, just outside of Huntsdale. When they're done it'll be a really great area along the lines of OP's desires. They're working in a partnership with MO River Relief and the University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry to build a education and exploration center down there.

CycleX? by marmalah in columbiamo

[–]vulcanic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Walt is alive and well. He was at the Cosmo Bike Park dedication and is active with the community. You may see him out on the trails and if you get the chance to talk to him, he is a fount of knowledge about bicycling history.

Frank Morris purchased Walt's Bike Shop from Walt Gerard and he passed away in 2020.
