Spotify Streaming Tips

1. Always stream the main/title track using a PLAYLIST. Create title-track focused playlists. Playlist length doesn’t matter, you can use 5 hours or 7 hours long playlists. But what you need to do is change the playlists in every 2/3 hours. Streaming from only one playlist for too long might count as bot behavior. Here’s an example how title-track focused playlist looks like ⬇️⬇️

2.  ONLY 2-3 SONGS IN-BETWEEN THE MAIN/TITLE TRACK FOR SPOTIFY. Adding 4 - 5 - 6 songs wastes too much time. Also, you HAVE TO add other versions of the main/title track (example: remix versions, instrumental version) in-between as fillers. Again, only as FILLERS, not to replace them with the original version. Adding other versions in your playlists will boost the streams for the original version in official charts. And don’t use 🔀 or 🔁 button. Take a look how to add them,

3. Always PRE-SAVE/PRE-ADD the song when they drop the link. They drop few days before the comeback day. Here’s why it’s extremely important,

4. Get premium subscription plans of your affordable prices. Streaming from a premium account has less chances of streams getting deleted. For a first timer, you can start with free trials here.

5. Share the link to your family members, friends & on other social medias to gain more unique listeners.

6. DO NOT skip/repeat/pause the song in the middle. Just stream the full song normally.

7. Repeating/looping the song again n again counts as spam/bot streaming. Often people stream just the song or the whole album over and over throughout the day. Spotify deletes those streams while filtering out the datas. That’s why it’s important to stream with a PLAYLIST.

8. Make sure to create MULTIPLE ( 15 or 20 at least) title-track focused playlists and switch between the playlists HOURLY. Streaming from only 1 or 2 playlists for hours count as spam/bot streaming. If you don’t have time to create more playlists or in need for more, then DM me on Twitter.

9. Add some NON-BTS tracks in between. You can use songs from their mixtapes, collabs, songs produced by them as non-bts songs. Or some artists you like to listen to besides bts (example: coldplay, ariana grande, beyonce etc etc).

10. Keep 2 and 3 gap in between adding main/title-track, not more than that. You can change the gap pattern tho, not repeat it. Something in FROZE & repeated pattern isn’t organic. For example ⬇️⬇️

Title track

xxxx (gap)

xxxx(gap)

Title track

xxxx (gap)

xxxx (gap)

xxxx (gap)

Title track

xxxx (gap)

xxxx (gap)

xxxx (gap)

Title track

xxxx (gap)

xxxx (gap)

You can change the gap pattern the way you want.

11. Offline streams will also count. First you need to download the song before going offline mode. But you need to turn on wifi/mobile data time to time (in a day) to make your streams count for the global chart and the overall streams.

12. IMPORTANT REMINDER FOR 🇬🇧 ARMYS:  UK official singles chart count only 10 streams per day per acccount coz UK charting system is different than US, thus if you streamed 10 times on Spotify and still want to help, then create a new account or switch to another account if you already have one or pick another platform (ex: Apple Music, YouTube, Deezer etc) to stream 10 times more from there. Streams more than 10 will be thrown out. So for title-track focused playlist, add the main/title-track 10 times in your playlists, then move to another account or another platform to stream 10 times more.

13. Plug earphone with your device for volume.

14. DO NOT use any third party, VPN apps to create accounts or to stream.

THE TIME OF ANGELS (2010) BOOM (2024)

I’m about to have a fun afternoon.

So my trainer’s bf cheated on her. She broke up with him. He’s holding her stuff hostage until she agrees to talk with him. Which she refuses.

She trains; for free mind you; three college linebackers, a college wrestler, two martial artists, a body builder, and… wait for it…. a Navy seal. We’re gonna go get her shit for her.

This should make for an interesting story.

Open Letter to Wilbur Soot

(which will likely be read by no one)

The silkworms out here have no idea what you need, what advice you are getting, and whether there are practical reasons for your silence. We can assume you must be under terrible pressure from outside, inside, and all around.  With apologies and understanding, I feel compelled to apply a little more pressure. 

For every former fan who posts a hateful comment, there are a hundred who stay silent. For every positive comment, there are a hundred who are afraid to speak.  Some are determined to despise you but are agonizing over the affection they still feel. Some secretly want to see you vindicated but are afraid to be seen as not believing a victim.  Do you know how they feel? 

It’s not news to you that you are the object of affection for many, many young people (and a few old ones :)). 

Mansplaining Warning (L’Mansplaining…): A celebrity crush on an actor is different.  Actors play someone else.  When a teenager falls head-over-heels for an actor, the connection is less intense.  The actor they adore is usually playing someone else and the public doesn’t really know what the actor is really like.  You play yourself.  Your chat *knows* you, and while you could argue that it isn’t real, SO MUCH OF IT IS.  They have seen you talk, laugh, react, and interact with minimal filters.  You aren’t an actor to them. You are real.  THEY ARE HEARTBROKEN, and it is REAL. 

The A-word was fixed to your chest by your ex-girfriend. Fandom splintered and sides were chosen. There is a tone that any questioning of Shelby’s characterization of you is anti-feminist or immoral.  People believe they aren’t allowed to accept you. Kids think it’s a true-or-false thing - either you did this or you didn’t.  

They think the man they idolized and thought was the best kind of person is actually the worst kind. Some think they were fooled. Some think they were betrayed. All they have to go on are Shelby’s words, bolstered by the blistering response to your statement from a few of your former colleagues and the deafening silence from the rest.  

There is a feeling that if you haven’t defended yourself, fully, it must be because you have no defense.  If the Sorry Boys and MCYTs won’t defend you, there must be more to this, and whatever you’ve done must be indefensible.

There are thousands of fans standing in the river, halfway across, hoping someone will tell them it is okay swim back.  No one is telling them.  Some have made their way decisively to one shore or the other and will not look back.  The people in the middle are a MESS.  

We know you are hurting.

These fans are hurting. You don’t owe them anything.  It must sting to have them adore you so much and then turn on a dime.  But if you have anything left to give, there are a bunch of fans who need more than anything to hear from you. 

My friend (one of the ‘fan moms’) exchanged DMs with kid in crisis a few days ago and talked him through a suicidal night.  He was struggling with losing you (which is how it feels to them), and the final straw was getting banned on Twitch by other CCs because he supports you.  He just couldn’t bear it. 

I read two Twitter threads today from fans who have denounced you confessing how much they miss being fans.  Both writers started and finished their ‘vents’ with caveats professing their support for victims and disgust for you, to make sure that no one reading would mistake them for “supporting an abuser.”  Then, they go on to describe the loss they feel and the holes in their hearts.  They question whether it is okay to still like Lovejoy.  They shyly ask if it still counts as “supporting abuse” if they can find ways to listen for free. They miss the high they used to get when a new single dropped or a new stream popped up. They say that of course they can’t love you anymore, but they loved the way you made them feel.  Between the caveats, the middle a straight-up love letter. 

Both sides love to toss around the “you’re parasocial” insult.  Who cares.  Parasocial or not, the suffering is real. 

If your PR person, your label, your lawyers, your band are telling you not to talk, *don’t talk.* 

But if not, and if you can ——-

PLEASE START TALKING. 

Talk for hours.  

Any damn way you want.  

Script it.  Wing it.  Push it out in pieces.  Produce a Dream-style YouTube video. Hop on Twitch and talk honestly until there is nothing at all left to say.  

Most importantly, make sure it isn’t short.  More is more. 

Talk about your faults, talk about your perception of what was happening at the time, and your perception of it retrospectively.  Talk about how you are doing, about what these months have been like for you.  (The WSS fans on your side of the river need most of all to know how you are doing.  Honestly. No bullshit please.)  If there are lies, call them lies.  Where Shelby is right, acknowledge it. Take the hits you deserve, but not the ones you don’t. Hit back when it isn’t fair. Please. 

If your silence means “I am exactly the guilty POS you think I am,” by all means, stay silent. 

But if not, PLEASE, for the Love of God, DEFEND YOURSELF. 

 **Now go listen to your team and yourself before taking strategy advice from some fangirl.

Some of you guys have never burned a CD and it shows

ok not to be that guy but like. labor rights and working class rights can coexist with 24h services and late amenities. its certainly hard to do so without worker exploitation in this political and social environment, it’s not a conflict likely to resolve overnight. but 24h services are important and especially valuable to those of us that are disabled or are on a different circadian rhythm. in fact more professional, health, and government services should be available or at least possible to work on asynchronously (if applicable) during late or odd hours, while workers also get sufficient pay for their labor and proper consistent scheduling. this would be much easier on the workers with night schedules if the entire professional world didn’t grind to a halt at 5pmEST

As someone in and around their 30’s it has been INSANE to see feminism in popular media descend through

Women can wear pants and play sports and that’s equality. Women don’t just belong inside the house. This woman has a career

This woman can be a mechanic just like a man could. She’s probably still a lesbian, though, which is basically the closest to a man a woman can *be*, and explains everything. But she’s still a person!

If a woman superhero CHOOSES to wear stilettos to fight crime, that’s girl power! This comic character written and designed by men wears a bikini and has a waist size of 12 inches because it makes her FEEL POWERFUL! Girls don’t HAVE to dress boyish to be strong! She can make you a sandwich AND be a feminist! Girl power!

What, are you saying women HAVE to do boy things to be taken seriously? Who are you to tell a woman what to do? Maybe some women NEED to get their hair and nails done twice a month to feel powerful! Maybe a lot of women WANT to be stay-at-home moms!

What I don’t think you understand is that women have an inherent feminine spirituality which guides them towards maternal and nurturing paths. Women need to honour their divine female aura to keep their. Their fuckin. Their chakras together or some shit. You should put quartz up your hooha and huff wheatgrass. Leaving manual labour and science and technology to men is natural and good for you spiritually

Uh she can’t do that, that’s a blue job, she’s a pink job girly. Food? Yeah, she’s having #girl dinner, which is a handful of almonds. Time for our 15 step skincare routine, which is empowering. Hashtag #girlboss. Ew no, touching dirt? She’s just a girl. You can’t expect a girl to do that. Haha #girl logic

"How do you write such realistic dialogue-" I TALK TO MYSELF. I TALK TO MYSELF AND I PRETEND I AM THE ONE SAYING THE LINE. LIKE SANITY IS SLOWLY SLIPPING FROM BETWEEN MY FINGERS WITH EVERY MEASLY WORD THEY TYPE OUT. THAT IS HOW.
