i should have known today was going to be f*cked up when i checked the Shinee tag before going to bed early this morning and saw that the unofficial sign merch for the fans going to the Japan tour with all five members had been pulled and replaced with official merch from SM that only had the three that are currently active. that should have been a sign from God that some f*ckass sh*t was about to go down the vibes were off

#shinee #minho #choi minho #taemin #lee taemin #key #kibum #kim kibum #i said i wasn't going to talk about this but ykw i have to talk about it. i am weirdly detached and i am grateful that i ate before i #saw that sh*t but i'm going to talk about it bc the more i think about it the more pissed i am #look. i'm at most maybe two or three shades darker than Minho. i have heard these kinds of comments from 'friends' in the past #and i'm not going to pretend that it didn't hurt bc it did. it did and you can see that it hurt him too bc he had to laugh it off and Kibum #and Taemin are two grown ass f*cking men who should know better. and as much as i love them i am thankful that their asses #are getting lit up on social media and people are talking about this bc it's 2023. you don't f*cking say that to your friend #this is the same sh*t they did to Haechan. we literally just had a reporter criticize Taecyeon's skintone at one of the press conferences #for Heartbeat a couple months ago asking if he didn't think he was too dark for the role there is still the trend of lightening #idols' photos in official merch and ones taken at fan events WE ARE STILL DOING THIS KIND OF SH*T #whatever internalized issues with colorism Taemin and Kibum have they need to sort it out. go see a therapist idk something #but don't take that sh*t out on someone so close to you you consider them family. don't do that #Jjong is looking down from his satellite disc trying to beat their asses and God is holding him back again by his collar #but just barely. the satellite beams are so the rest of the fandom can get signal to do their work and call out the bullsh*t #going to spend the rest of the day reblogging Minho sets listening to Heartbreak in between Mirotic streaming #and trying to watch the rest of SOTB. that's all i can do atp
