someone better take my money away from me bc i just spent recklessly on alpha drive one merch 💫

now that ald1 has debuted and i get to root for them and do my streams for them or whatever, i can’t help but peek at old trainee A content. it really just rips your heart out and stomps all over it 😭 i’m so happy for leowon, but the lore is SO HEAVY 💔

in here to cry about kpop. no joke, close your eyes is the boy group with the best songs of the current gen. no skips, and some truly special gems like “how to dance” and “you.” the choreo for “how to dance” is STUNNING. how are they not as popular as cortis? truly mind-boggling. minwook, too 🥵

rewatching that b2p finale and hot dog, sangwon crying during leo’s debut speech to him still hits you right in the guts. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL FREINDSHIP 😭 oh sangwon, infp that you are~

the way sangwon cried when leo made the debut line up and addressed him during his acceptance speech. those beautiful tears of joy i felt in my SOUL, man. he knows how much pain they both must carry—the weight of a failed debut must be enormous.

every time i think ive heard the dorkiest kpop group name, these survival shows keep one upping themselves. first illit, then izna, then idid, and now alpha drive one? WHAT DOES IT EVEN MEAN???? jfc!

still on my b2p shit, and i’ll just say what no one else is saying bc they’re all haters: chains group can debut now and i would be very happy.

i guess i’m old now and shouldn’t need to hear these kinds of things, but i wish i could hear my mom or dad tell me i’m doing well, that i’m working hard, that they miss me. things like that. but my mom is dead, so that won’t happen. my dad is alive and unwell, so he won’t say these things.

yoonmin not getting the hero vocal edit is going to get him eliminated. i’m not super into his timbre, but he’s easily one of the best, if not THE best, singer of the entire season. and i love leo lol, but yoonmin’s control is crazy.

close your eyes is my favorite 5th gen boy group. minwook having to go to the military at the end of this…

harry june up for elimination again on b2p and i’m screaaaaaaming. best dancer on the show must survive, right? COME ON.

here to have another hot take about a kpop survival show. if sangwon doesn’t debut rank 1 in boys planet 2, it would have to be bc of vote rigging. talk about a mfing STAR. and if leo doesn’t debut with sangwon, i will never watch another survival show again. leo’s vocals are unmatched. DEBUT!!!

a year ago today my mom died.

research twins! thank you for sharing all the groups to listen to. i just heard evnne and onepact last night, and i’m glad there’s so many more to check out!

may i ask what your research is for? mine is for a novel. i start writing this week, actually. hopefully, lol.

and while i understand that now, two years later, they have debuted, neither have shown up in groups that have public attention like zb1. it’s so sad to see…

i’m on boys planet right now, which is like the modern gold standard, i think, esp considering it gave rise to an incredibly popular group, zb1. and some of the finalists are just so, so talented. park han bin, yoon jong woo. definitely debut worthy.

i’m on like my fifth or sixth kpop survival show now—calling it research—and i feel SO AWFUL for the trainees who don’t make the debut group. it really is so heartbreaking to see them lose hope as all the spots get taken, especially in the final announcement.

just got back from seeing #jimmyeatworld at the senate in columbia. max cap 1200. when i tell you this band is INCREDIBLE live. i’ve seen hundreds of bands over the years, but none are as perfect live. blew my mind last year at #wwwyfest with 70k people and again now. WOW.

this new txt/hi-boyz song has literal crack in it. and the video with yeonjun and soobin is like next level idol power 💀 the way they find the lens with their eyes, it’s like they’re literally looking at my face??? even performing with an actual actor, there’s no comparison lol.

like. jiyong forever. but also wu hao? those live vocals are physics defying. the TALENT. and you left them crying on the stage to support some visuals? i’m so disgusted. and sad. it’s been days, and i can’t stop crying!!!

man, i’m still over here crying over #newkidsonthestarship since they did jiyong so so dirty. how do you give him main character energy and then leave him on the stage? i can’t ever listen to idid (trash name btw) without being stabbed by the memory of how poorly SSE treated their most talented.

pharmaceutical manufacturers and the billionaires who own them are true evil. filth not fit to be called human.

jiyong didn’t debut with the stupid new starship group called IDID. literally idid. what the actual fuck is happening. my whole heart is broken 💔

i have this theory that any kpop trainee who got veneers will definitely debut. come on jiyong, pull that W out my boyyyyy #newkidsonthestarship

like i watched american idol and the voice growing up, but this is a whole new level of torturous “vote for your fav” shit. i have too many favs </3

this is the first time i’ve ever watched a kpop survival show as it aired and actually had it dubbed in english so i could understand. and when i tell you i am STRESSED that my favs aren’t going to make it into the final group. it really is so heartbreaking??? WHY!

in my kpop era and i’m watching this new beomgyu solo, “panic,” and DAMN his face card never fails.

brand new released their summer tour dates. my heart is exploding. PLZ LET ME GET WHAT I WANT THIS TIME.

the regime is now trying to deport permanent residents for speaking out about palestinian genocide. legal residents exercising their first amendment. where will regime supporters draw the line? when they try to deport your family for posting online? when they try to deport you? me?

Democrats would win elections consistently if they campaigned on and implemented this….
