#i was doing cpm and this happened

[empty-movement]

you know the stereotype about utena fans

well

let's take a specific sequence and compare the four primary translations of Utena that I know of. why this one? because i know we changed it and also sequences with these two had a lot of minor telling differences from one effort to the next

Revolutionary Girl Utena, Episode 25, Our Eternal Apocalypse

1998, UTP fan project:

Touga: You're driving quite fast. Akio: She's purring nicely, don't you think? Care to take the wheel? Touga: What? But I still don't… Akio: You're too strict… Touga: That was a rather indecent proposal, Mr. Chairman.

2003, Central Park Media DVD:

T: We're really flying down the road... A: The throb of the engine feels good, doesn't it? A: Care to take the wheel? T: Hm? But I'm not old enough.. A: Such a strict boy. T: That wasn't a fair proposal, Mr. Chairman.

2011, Nozomi Blu-ray, edited from the CPM translation via a fan led project that was us and you and it was awesome:

T: We're really flying down the road... A: The throb of the engine feels good, doesn't it? A: Care to take the wheel? T: Hm? But I'm not old enough.. A: How upright of you. T: That was an indecent proposal, Mr. Chairman.

2023, Some-Stuffs fan translation project:

T: You're flying down the road. A: Exquisite vibrations, no? A: Care to take the wheel? T: Huh? But I'm still not... A: Well, aren't you stiff? T: That was rather inappropriate, Board Chairman.

Do you like what you see? Is this level of ridiculous exactness interesting to you? Do you think these decades-spanning comparisons add anything to the discussion?

Well join our forum, Something Eternal, then. Because in the time it took for me to type this up for the Tumblr post, forum member xenofem dropped this in the thread about comparisons of the text with other examples already there broken down by color look just go

Looking at that exchange in episode 25 line by line: Touga: 随分飛ばすんですね。 The subject of this sentence is elided, which is what's leading to the discrepancies around we vs. you. The verb, "tobasu", is literally "to make something fly" or "to send something flying", but can also refer to driving a vehicle fast, or moving fast through things. The object is also elided, the literal meaning is clearly the car but there could also be room for innuendo here.

ok no but seriously, so much amazing stuff has already happened on this babby ass forum that I can barely keep up, we have birding threads and Baldur's Gate 3 threads and new fans posting their reactions as they watch for the first time threads and terfs are banned on sight

#utena #revolutionary girl utena #empty movement #utena forum #utena translation #utena analysis #utena meta #apparently the 'well aren't you stiff' one is the most accurate #which figures because it's also the worst #in utena #the most uncomfortable scenes are often also the most brilliantly written

[lol-jackles]

You said before that in Hollywood people have their favorites cause theyre dependable, thats why we see some some directors working again and again and again with the same actors.

This seems to also encompass Kripke and Jensen. We know Amazon wanted an older and more well-known actor for SB. Kripke specifically wanted Jensen to the point of having him doing 4 tapes with corrections and notes to convince the executives.

I have an inkling that Jensen also got his first look deal with them due to Kripke's interference/ good will he has with TPTB.

My speculation is that they might pair up for a SB -led spin off produced by Chaos (even though TB already has a spin of in production). Am I too far off base? If you were to guess, how would Kripke work to better use Jensen's scene stealing skills being the protagonist?

SB-led spin off?  Produced by CPM?  Anything Kripke creates will be produced by his own company Kripke Enterprise (TB, Diabolical, Gen V).  I'm not sure how you came to the idea that CPM would produce a spin off of The Boys.

My expectations going into the 3rd season of TB was too high in thinking that Kripke will be designing Soldier Boy's arc around Jensen's acting strength.  Instead, we got a character that was barely present and barely interacted with others.  There was a wall between SB and the viewers who wasn't invited and were left on the outside looking in.  The only way I can see SB-led spin off happening is Kripke learned his mistake from season three, and brings Starlight and Hughie over to create a not!love triangle between her and Hughie and Soldier Boy. Kripke was hell bent on getting Erin cast as Starlight and stretched out her audition to 4 hours and kept giving her notes.  Erin and Jensen were the only actors I'm aware of who gave notes to better their chances to get casted on his show. 

[apoptoses]

omg I'm having fit because I typed this up in my notes app yesterday on the subway and just realized I never actually sent it you lmao I'm a clown 🙈

Anyway what I wanted to say was for the writer feedback thing: I actually think about this a lot because you're one of the fic-writers I take literal notes on because you have the Midas touch imo -- it's all gold 💖

Three things about your style that stand out to me the most are

You take risks! I don't mean the sex stuff (although that's great and I love it), but like you don't shy away from the gritty, painful, raw stuff that cuts deep and oozes all over the place. Your Daniel is no saint, and neither is Armand. When I read your D/A, I feel like I'm reading them the way Anne intended them to be read, and I think that's why CPMS nestles so perfectly within canon DM to your readers.

You show and don't just tell! It's never just "Armand is sad," you really weave the narrative to create the experience of physically being in the room with him, of seeing, sensing, knowing he's sad. When I read your stuff it's not just a well-crafted sentence on the screen; it's a full-body, five-senses experience. I usually need a joint and nap afterwards lmao.

You really nail the whole Ricey technique of weaving in the past with the present in a way that's organic and contributes to the overall story. Nothing you write is filler because it all serves a purpose.

tl;dr: reading your stuff makes me a better writer and overall enriches my entire life and ily, I can't articulate myself well enough atm but i'm so glad you're in my fandom 😭😭💘💘

lol it's only natural that clown things happen here at clown school (and I swear tumblr is the biggest clown of them all when it comes to formatting stuff)

Anyways this has had me all verklempt all day because these are really big compliments and I'm not even sure I've earned them but the sentiment is just so nice.

Risk taking is like...the most important thing to me in my work. I feel like if I'm not doing something unexpected there's no point in even opening a doc. I have to push a boundary with the setting or what Armand decides to do, and then it becomes really scary because I pushed the boundary! And now I have to share it and hope people trust me enough to go along for the ride.

And I'm so happy that so many people do! Because Armand and Daniel are both so precious to me and so near to my soul in so many ways. Sometimes my life feels like a series of experiences that happened just to culminate in me understanding them, which makes sharing my interpretation of them a vulnerable thing. So to hear that they're that right is hugely validating ♥

And then like- I've been in this weird place with writing right now. where I feel like I like what I do, and I can read other author's works and identify what I love about what they do. But I can't figure out how to polish my own skills enough to achieve the same thing. I can't figure out how to take my descriptions to that next level.

So yes. Hearing that I'm doing good right now and if I only ever stay doing things like this it'll still be good is a huge comfort to me.

So just. Thank you 🥹 Hearing that my little hobby has that much impact is so gratifying and fyi if these notes are an actual thing i'm going to bully you until you show me them just saying Thank you for always encouraging me ily 💖💖💖

I was going to make a post about a headcanon people might come up with if I was part of a MCYT SMP (even though I'll probably never be popular enough to join one), but because that headcanon involves my Minecraft character doing something that I definitely don't want to do in real life due to potentially being harmful to myself and others, I've decided to cut the post down to just the part where I get to show off my Minecraft player model and talk about the mod I used to make it.

This turned into a rambling post, click keep reading to keep reading.

This player model is possible thank to a mod called Customizable Player Models (by tom5454, mod is available at https://modrinth.com/plugin/custom-player-models), which lets you add things to your player model (or remove things from it), though it's probably not the easiest mod to jump straight into.

One of my favorite parts about the mod is that it's completely client-side and even lets you use your custom player model on vanilla servers (though it will only be visible to other people who have the mod).

My Minecraft skin (and the additional parts added through CPM) is based on one of my OCs who I don't think I've ever actually spoken of on Tumblr, so I'm going to list the information I've revealed about her on Pixiv by being lazy and screencapping part of the description of the one work she appears in.

I know I'm calling Blake a futa in that screencap, but I'd actually like to stop using that term outside of Pixiv tags.

From now on, I'll try using the term "hermaphrodite" instead of "futanari", at least outside of tagging my Pixiv works (since I tag those in Japanese).

Since this has basically turned into a rambling post at this point (probably closer to one of my Pixiv descriptions, since it's focused on a single character), why not talk about some of Blake's abilities?

If you've seen the Pixiv work that Blake appears in (which you probably haven't), you may notice that she doesn't have antennae over there, this is because she's a shapeshifter who happened to be in her default human form at the time.

Compared to the other two shapeshifting OCs I've mentioned on Tumblr (Haru and Misca), Blake's abilities are severely limited.

Haru and Misca can basically take any shape they want, with as many (or as few) parts as they want.

Blake is limited to "taking on arthropod characteristics", which is only limited by whatever Blake can convince herself is an "arthropod characteristic".

(For reference, arthropods include insects, arachnids (like spiders and scorpions), and crustaceans (like crabs and lobsters).)

Blake can grow bee wings, butterfly wings, or dragonfly wings, but can't grow bird wings or bat wings.

Blake can grow extra limbs, as long as there's an arthropod that naturally has that many limbs (she could theoretically have 100 or 1,000 limbs, but not any numbers in between), other restrictions may also apply.

Blake can also mix-and-match characteristics from different arthropods, like having butterfly wings, crab claws, and a scorpion tail all at the same time.

Hopefully Blake doesn't sound too much like a Mary Sue, the main reason I'm worried about that is because she's basically a representative (not a representation) of my online persona who evolved into her own character, then again I feel like a lot of my OCs are overpowered ability-wise.

Week 3 Post-Surgery Recap

Hip Arthroscopy & Osteochondroplasty (FAI Correction)

While week 2 was a drag, week 3 was a whirlwind!

Week 3 was 5/19-5/25. I'm writing this a whole week later so I hope I can remember what happened lol. Has the pandemic made other people feel like time is just this weird non-existent thing? Like a week ago feels like months ago.

Okay so here's the rundown of Week 3

-I had my 2-week follow-up appt. I already wrote a post about that. But basically I was given the green light to start bearing more weight on my leg and weaning off of my crutches.

-after a few days of more weight bearing on two crutches, I was able to walk with one crutch. I was able to start walking more comfortably with my sutures removed because my skin was less tight as I put more weight on my quad

-speaking of sutures, I FINALLY GOT THEM TAKEN OUT! I had to go to the hospital to get one of them out because it was really tight and the nurse was nervous about causing damage. But it was taken out at the hospital with little to no pain. I also iced my sutures before getting them taken out to help reduce pain and post-removal swelling.

-I'm done with the CPM machine (I actually kind of miss it even though I was tired of using it for hours a day lol)

-no more naproxen THANK GOD. now all I have left is my aspirin for the next 3 weeks.

-continuing to do daily exercises

-overall no significant hip joint pain. Just some soreness and weakness when i'm walking (w/o a crutch)

Till Next Time 🤞🏽

Why Google ads are a must for your business growth?

Google is undoubtedly the most sought-after search engine in the world today. It is estimated that Google processes over 40,000 search queries every second which is around 3.5 billion searches in a day and close to 1.2 trillion searches per year.

Google alone controls 90% of the search engine market in the world. It is also estimated that over 1.12 billion internet users use Google as a search engine platform. From hairpin to rockets, from shares to wars, from love to shopping …just about everything gets googled these days.

With this much power at Google’s fingertips, shouldn’t businesses be interested in making use of it?

Well, that should not be even a question in the mind of an entrepreneur who wants to scale up his business, who wishes to make his products more visible in the market, and how wants to make more ROI.

Google with its paid advertising platform called “Google Ads” has become a need for every growing business. Google ads make it easy to take advantage of the online advertising world. It not only helps in showing the advertisements to the right people but also gets us in control of the ad budget.

Below are some key benefits which make google ads a big YES for every aspiring and growing business.

Ad Targeting

Google ads provide a great opportunity for advertisers to showcase their ads to the right audience. Just imagine that if your business is into home automation and you are advertising traditionally, for eg: on television, in newspapers, billboards or hoardings, and others. But in all these mediums, there are more chances that your advertisements do not reach out exactly to people who are interested in home automation.

But with google ads, this problem is more or less solved. As you know how many people have clicked on your ad and shown interest in buying your product. Further to this, Google uses keywords which are words or phrases relevant to your product that are used to show your ads when customers search for the relevant keywords or visit the relevant web pages.

And, Google also provides the facility to advertisers to show ads on google search results pages and websites which are a part of the google search and display networks.

Intent-based

Google ads help to advertise to people who have the intent to search for your product or related to it. For eg: On traditional platforms such as television, newspapers, hoardings, and modern ones such as social media people don't come generally looking at solutions to their daily requirements. Nor they may be looking for something specific. But, in the case of a google search engine, people come with their everyday problems for which they are trying to find solutions. This provides an opportunity for Google to advertise where the customers are and which results in avoidance of ad money wasted.

You are in control

With google ads, you are in control of your campaign at all times. You can start and stop the campaign whenever you feel it's necessary to do so. You can also track your campaign status daily and use the various reports generated by Google based on your ad performance. We know that in marketing, every rupee should be invested in the right pocket and google lets us do exactly that. With constant monitoring, you can be sure that your campaign is in safe hands.

Budget in your hands

With CPC and CPM models, ensure that you are the king of your ad spend. It's never going to happen that one day you will be smacked with an exorbitant ad spend that makes your eyeballs roll. With every click you pay …it’s as simple as that.

Recommendations and Reports

Google provides structured recommendations to optimize your ad campaign for the best results. While your ad campaign is ongoing, based on the marketing and business intelligence, google recommends key pointers which you can apply to keep your campaign at 100% optimization ensuring a rather steady success. Also, google helps in providing detailed reports regarding views, impressions, clicks, demographics of the customers, and others which further help in fine-tuning the ad campaign and the results from it.

Google ads work for everyone. With its different packages, insights, and approaches there is something in store for every business. So, when are you kickstarting your business with google ads?

Eyecatchers is an advertising agency with a difference - we make advertising that sells! Print, outdoor, TV, radio, events, website, digital, social – we help you send out a consistent message through all media !

5 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Start a Blog on a Free Blogging Platform

When I first started blogging, I had a minimal budget to invest. So my initial thought was to go for a free blogging platform in the beginning. So if you are thinking of doing the same, I totally get you.

At this point, you might not be sure whether you will continue blogging or not or should you invest money upfront when you don’t know how long will it take to get the return of your investment. You are not alone. I have been there as well!

Years later, when I look back at it, I thank myself that I ultimately go for the paid option, and it was worth the investment.

I want to be honest with you. In fact, let me be the first person to tell you that all business, even blogging, requires a minimum investment. There is no other way around this. But if you ask me, the investment much less when you compare it to others.

So if you are in a dilemma to choose between the free and paid version of the blogging platform, this article might help you clear your mind. In this article, I will explain why choosing a free blogging platform is a bad idea and why you shouldn’t start a blog on a free Blogging Platform either if you are serious about making money online.

But before doing that, I will start by explaining what exactly a Free Blogging platform is.

What is a Free Blogging Platform?

A free blogging platform lets you to sign up and get a free domain at their blogging platform.You can set up your website for free and start blogging.

Two such most common free platforms are Blogger.com and WordPress.com. Apart from these two, few more known such platforms are Wix.com and Tumblr.com.

You can set up your blog within minutes and start blogging. A very few advantages of using such blogging platform will be:

It is free

It has a very simple interface and

It takes only a few minutes to set up

However for serious blogging and making income, the free blogging platform is not going to work. Let’s find out Why !

Disadvantage of Free Blogging Platform

#1.Free Domain Looks Unprofessional

Let me ask you a question. Do you shop online? On Amazon or Walmart? They have their website names as Amazon.com and Walmart.com These are branded websites that you trust, and you can buy from them with confidence.

Will you buy from a website that is something like Amazon.blogspot.com or Walmart.WordpPress.com with the same confidence?

You won’t because these websites look unprofessional and do not appeal to people.

The same thing will happen to your blog as well. If you create a blog on a free hosting platform, it will never appeal to your readers. Your readers will not take you seriously, no matter how well you write your content. If you are blogging for money, this is certainly not what you will want.

#2.Limited Storage Space

Blogger and WordPress Free version offer a minimal storage space. Blogger gives you 1 GB of storage space. For WordPress.com, it is 3 GB. This is very less, considering you will need to upload a lot of images and posts on your website on regular intervals for your articles.

#3.Limited Customizing Option

Free blogging platforms have a limited number of themes and less customizing options available. So in many cases, you might be able to change the color of the theme header, but not the font size. Moreover, in free platforms, you will not be able to install any new themes and plugins. Plugins are especially essential to customize the blog further and make it SEO optimized. Without SEO and other plugins, it is impossible to rank in search engines like Google.

#4.Limited Earning and Monetization Potential

The scope of monetization is very limited in free blogs. Free blogs like WordPress.com runs their own advertising in your blog to cover their expenses. You will not earn any money from this. You will have very little traffic, so even if you are somehow able to run ads on your website, the earning will be less. The CPC and CPM rates will also be less. The worst thing will be, most of the affiliate network sites will reject your application because they will consider your website unworthy.

#5.No Control over Domain

This is the most dangerous part, and sadly it happens a lot.

Relying on a free blogging platform can be costly as you have practically no control over it. So it might be quite possible, you can end up losing every piece of content you have posted on your blog and that also without any notice or intimation.

If the blogging platform notices any violation of their terms of service agreement, they can suspend your website and remove all the content. In a self-hosted platform, you are generally informed or given a warning when they notice any such violation to take corrective action. Unfortunately for free platforms, it is not the same.

What is the Best Alternative?

If you are serious of blogging and make money take the right action from the day one. Be in charge of your own blog and don’t let anyone take the control.

Always go for WordPress.Org (this is different from the WordPress.Com that I explained earlier).

WordPress.Org is a Content Management System (CMS), which is also free but you need to host it a server.

To understand it better, you can consider WordPress.Com as a software and the hosting server as a Hard Disk where you will install this software. The reason why you are installing this software on a server is so that you can be accessed and viewed from anywhere.

Using WordPress.Org has many advantages. These are:

You can use a professional domain i.e yourwebsite.com

You can customize your blog in any way you want

Total control over your website

You can monetize it better and earn money

Take regular automated back up; so you won’t lose any data

Wrapping Up

I hope now you have a clear idea of why you should not select a free blogging platform, rather go for WordPress.Org. Do you know that 14.7% of the Top 100 Websites in the World run on WordPress? Take the right step and give yourself the right start by choosing WordPress on a hosting platform. Trust me, this is the right thing to do, and you won’t regret it.

Hi there! What's the cutest line you've written for RPS so far?

a) i love you for asking this question

b) there are several lines in RPS I love

c) the one I picked isn't actually about Eli/Ambrose

d) I'm going to give you the whole snippet as a thank-you

(mild spoilers for RPS ahead, but honestly whatever)

Dawn has just gotten a profile in an elite business journal, and is showing Ambrose & Eli the copy of the article. This is Ambrose reading it:

Ms. Kerighin’s re-discovery of the elemental chasm moss was done in conjunction with Mr. Ambrose Beake, CPM, and Eli Valenz of Rosemond Street. Mr. Beake runs the Guild-certified and journal-acclaimed potions shop The Griffin’s Claw, which celebrates its 200th year this autumn. She highly recommends that after you visit the Whirling Wand Emporium, you stop by the Griffin’s Claw for all your potion needs. You will not find a better potion master, nor a better friend.

Eli was first to respond.

“Look, there’s my name!” He hugged Dawn. “You’re so sweet, you didn’t have to do that.”

“Dawn, I…” Ambrose blinked. The words on the paper had blurred all of a sudden. “I thought we had agreed there was no need to mention me—“

Dawn snorted. “Right, like that was going to happen.”

As Eli continued to gush over the sketch and the article’s glowing words, Ambrose held the paper to his chest, smiled, and rushed into the shop. Took down the old potion recipe, pried open the back of the frame. Slotted in the paper and hung it back up.

“There,” he said as Eli and Dawn shuffled up behind him. “I think that looks better, don’t you?”

“Ames…” Dawn took his hand, eyes shining. “Come on, you sure you want my mug on your wall?”

He was never more sure of anything in his life.

“Yes.” He nodded firmly and set an arm around her shoulders. “I need everyone to know that you’re my best friend.”

I’m guessing all Vmins were right Sweet night is about the past. I guess it’s why Tae give it for the movie instead of for his mixtape. I’m guessing JM gave him the ok to do so and why he’s been silent about it cause it’s over between them. TK are making it too obvious. jk treating JM like they aren’t friends suddenly. jk in purple/green all the time. v not shutting up about jk suddenly. JM is not handling it well. I guess it’s why v said he likes JM the most (guess as friend) cause he feels bad

Admin 1: “Sure, go and release a song easily identified as being about us and your hope of me giving you a second chance with a hopeful ending seeing as we aren’t together anymore, sounds like a nice idea to me. Go, Taehyungie, do it. Then also let me hold your hand on national TV and show it to the cameras happily, smile sweetly at you while we stand next to the president, talk about our song and memories and how much they mean to me, perform this song that's essentially a love letter to our bond in a live-streamed concert for almost 800k people, and when you tell me you like me the most, I’ll say I like you a lot as well. Because we’re over and not even friends anymore.” Sounds like some sound logic to me, and I mean that in the most sarcastic way possible to humans.

Honestly, either I’ve just been around too long and all these asks are starting to sound the same and impossibly uncreative, or they are just getting more farfetched and bizarre. If you want a proper answer, I told you, bring something to the table that hasn’t been talked to dust yet, or leave it be.

To quote Tae, the man who knows best what he feels: 95z is love.

Until he (and Jimin) changes his mind, this is the answer I have for any and all Xkooker ask, as well as any other ship involving Tae or Jimin.

Also yes, I did see the hate against Jimin that exploded yesterday, we even have an ask about it in our inbox, and honestly these types of questions, anon? Yeah, you're not helping, in fact, you are part of the problem, just saying.

Admin 2: Man, man, man!

We didn't really want to answer these types of questions anymore, but this ask takes the trophy when it comes to delulu/nonsensical questions, so I decided to answer it after all. Because it’s hot and I need a distraction.

Also, this question basically confirms most of our suspicions we’ve had so far. Let me explain.

Folks, who is behind these kinds of stories which are being presented and preached as truth on various sns?

I don't believe this is any single persons invention (in this case, that anon came up with this idea “without help”), if anything it’s the result of delulu, and often times toxic, scenarios and stories created by a group of people intended to further a narrative and actively disrupt the “peace” within ARMY (or at least that’s what it feels like since all these things do is ignite hate and toxicity). Where is the origin of it all? Ship centric YouTube channels.

It is very evident that these "imaginative creators/shippers" behind those videos have no consideration of the consequences and harm their content does because, in my opinion, the more controversial and clickbait-y, the better. You know why? More views means more money, which is the goal of it all. We’ve spoken about this before, I believe, how these videos on “ship evidence” and “ship drama” for Xkookers are the most beloved topics of these videos and thus make up one of the easiest means of generating income, in some cases even something upward of $80k a year depending on the channels CPM, sub and view count.

The average person has to work hard all year round to make this amount of money, if they even have a job that brings in that much. So, it is not surprising that these content creators go very far in their fantasies to support their claims and keep their viewers/costumers engaged and coming back.

I wouldn't be surprised if the creators (or rather the whole lot of them) of both Xkook camps are basically the same people, because their ideas, conclusions and explanations all sound the same and follow the same nonsensical patters. Which is why we’ve already told you many times that the best thing you can do is stay away from this type of content altogether.

So! Let's analyze this ask a little more:

"…Vmins were right Sweet Night is about the past. I guess it’s why Tae give it for the movie instead of for his mixtape."

Ok, let's say Tae wrote "Sweet Night" for Jimin, but in the meantime he has changed his feelings (that's how I understand the question) so he gave the song to the Itaewon Class OST instead of putting it on his mixtape. I wanted to note that Taehyung's mixtape isn't finished yet and we will probably wait many more months for it.

It seems to me that Taehyung really wanted to show his feelings to the world, so he saw an opportunity with the OST, and therefore a quicker release for SN, and took it. The fact is that SN is about the past, but there is also hope for the future, hope for the fulfillment of wishes, which likely did come true judging by how Tae said he wrote SN during tour abroad (so sometimes summer/early autumn 2019 perhaps) and we saw vmin holding hands at the airport on Tae’s birthday in 2019 when they thought no one would see, just three months before SN was released (and likely long schedules for said release since these types of things don’t just happen overnight) and many, many other such things.

“I suspect that JM gave him his consent and why he kept silent about it because it was over between them, TK makes it too obvious. "

And I suspect that Jimin was very touched by Sweet Night and ultimately wrote Friends in which him and Tae sing: “Many promises and memories / and more to come / Someday, when these cheers die down, stay hey / You are my soulmate”

The fact is that BTS didn't say much about SN, but it was the same with many of their other SC releases as well, so it wasn’t unusual, especially since SN came out while they were promoting MOTS7. Also, in my opinion, the content of this song is too personal to be able to describe/discuss the song in detail beyond the bit that was mentioned during Tae’s vlive with Namjoon. During a Japanese interview, the members basically confirmed/pointed out how romantic Tae is and when SN came up, Namjoon “coincidentally” turned around toward Jimin who has a similar facial expression of pressed lips as he did during Let’s BTS.

"JK treats JM as if they suddenly weren't friends"

And here I have caught you, dear anon. I think you're not even looking at the original BH content, but that instead you are basing your conclusions and opinions on manipulative YT ship videos instead because if you would’ve watched the original content like RUN, the recent SOWOOZOO concerts, and interviews, you wouldn’t arrive anywhere near such thoughts and conclusions.

Jimin and JK are still close, also Jimin calls JK his little brother (dongsaeng) and JK describes Jimin (or associates these words with him) as charm and cute. Does there seem to be any kind of conflict between Jimin and Jungkook? Certainly not, no.

„JK always in purple / green. v not shutting up about jk suddenly."

You mean their microphone colors? I wanted to point out how Tae wore a yellow shirt during the concert, which is the same color as the chick emoji ARMY associates with Jimin as well as his mic color. LOL.

As far as I know, when Tae has something to say, he will say it, and if he is praising JKs songs, and especially You Eyes Tell which we know is a song Tae liked a lot, that is a good thing. It simply means Tae appreciates the song JK created, appreciates and values his talents and hard work. If the entire band praises Namjoon and his lyrics/contributions on their songs, does that automatically also mean all six are “not shutting up about him” and therefore must be in love and in a relationship with him, or it’s an indicator of it? If anything, it’s merely an indicator that Tae is an honest person and JK did a good job on those songs. Easy as that.

That's my favorite part of the question: "JM doesn't handle it that well. I think that's why I said he likes JM best (as a friend, I guess) because he feels bad."

Personally, I consider myself a person with a great imagination, but I wouldn't really come up with a scenario like that.

How cruel of a person do you think Tae is? Imagine they aren’t together anymore or close anymore, or whatever else you tried to insinuate anon, and then Tae would go on national TV and do this whole thing of asking for the card in his letter to Jimin to be blurred and then said “Jimin-ah I like you the most”? To do something as hurtful as that you either have to be a sadist or an asshole and I’d like to believe even you, anon, don’t think in such a way about Tae, of all people.

Perhaps that’s something dumb teenagers or kids would do, but not adult men in their mid-twenties who see each other every single day, are part of the same team and have to work with each other. This is real life, not a soap opera. If these types of dramas really would be happening within BTS, they would’ve stopped existing as a band a long time ago because no one would be able to live with such actions and people for a prolonged amount of time. BTS are grown men, best friends, even found family, and not actors on a badly written TV show for our entertainment where they act out increasingly stupid relationship drama in which JK somehow ended up being the toy going from hand to hand like he’s not even an actual person anymore.

In summary, this question was written by a child, teenager, or an emotionally immature person naïve enough to buy into outlandish ship narratives.

Anon, hear what the members had to say during FESTA 2021. Make your own conclusions and stop watching and believing the nonsense on YouTube. As Tae said: Get out of your imagination. It’s not good in there.
