Aang is boring/unpopular/irrelevant, yet THEY drag him into every single fucking discussion they have
Aang is boring/unpopular/irrelevant, yet THEY need to steal his plotlines and charming personality to make their favs look more cool
Aang is boring/unpopular/irrelevant, yet this series wouldn't exist without him
THEY are so obsessed with him and don’t even know it 🤷♀️
Semi-motivational quotes from Hayao Miyazaki
i found an old blog months ago that used to specialize in eggso recolorings. I did it for fun for awhile. But its sad nobody does them anymore. Like this is not a sin..anyway this like disappeared and I miss these so I'll just do it for myself. Lmao when Im scrolling one day I'll see it and pretend it wasnt me and smile. I used to not have a heavy opinion but now some people genuinely don't know koreans have melanin. But its only because everything has filters now.
lmao it needs to be rebranded remelanation
The commoners are also to blame, they planned on contributing to the upper class and becoming apart of it rather than change it. That is the ultimate goal of the average human. To join not change. It's humanity's own hive instinct that is the true downfall. The rich or powerful is such a pointless term. People agreed to give power to the few because they hated their enemies more. They wanted to keep and block out others, so they pledged allegiance to leaders who will guide them in wars to destroy their enemies. The true enemy is ego. Do people who live in the jungles feel inferior. Do they demand money? No, they don't even know what that is. They don't care. If you play someone else's game of course you won't beat them. Giving value to the aristocracy is a mindset. Workers in the end were invented to replace indigenous people who lived off the land. There are no workers in nature. It's an unnatural process. There is only adding to the group your own family. Everything else is fantasy. Rich people don't know you and you don't know them. It's only the ideal of a society that makes everyone work together. That makes 100 people work for one person or a thousand people pay a membership fee to a store to buy food from it. There's nothing like it in nature. So of course one person will screw over the other. It's impossible to demand loyalty from someone who doesn't care about you. And why would they? Nothing in the movie talked about dismantling capitalism or giving back to nature. It's such a sham of a movie. Rich people love it because they recognize it as commentary of how desperate and envious poor people of them. And poor people think it's the rich upper class admitting that they are bad people. In reality it's simple showing both truths from a neutral perspective. Korea is one of the most classist places on earth. Poor people are treated as subhuman. The movie cast is full of rich people. It's barely a critique and if it is it is a very ironic one. No real lessons were taught and obviously nothing was learned from the film seeing how much people love it. It was simply another puff piece to make the upper class feel clever. The irony is poor people all over the world spent money watching this all while feeling like it was for them. That if anything is the lesson. Stop trying to get rich people to understand wealth inequality. The lion will NEVER feel bad for the gazelle. But having a victim mentality is even worse, selling out one another as a response is why the poor are still the poor. Spending money on, promoting and endorsing movies that glorify rich people's ignorance is why we cannot complain too much.
when parasite said the rich can afford to be kind, when parasite said global warming is most catastrophic for those least responsible, when parasite said the rich are the ones with access to sunlight, when parasite said the efforts of the working class are invisible to their exploiters, when parasite said water only ever flows from the rich down to the poor and never in reverse, when parasite said the rich are the real parasites for leeching off of their workers' labour

Alright since like NOBODY has got this yet, cause apparently the early 2000s never happened and we all don't have common sense enough to know what is going on in an obvious situation. I've seen every theory under the sun with a lot of various implications none of them even close to right I want to add. Y'all remember kim k always following Paris around like ALL the time. Bruh Moonkyu is basically Jongin's part time stylist. Thank goodness to be honest he really couldn't dress well before mk started picking out clothes for him. Nobody's copying anybody. It's not a Jennifer's body situation even though tbh that would be really interesting. I've heard dating rumors, obsession, clout chaser, all sorts of weird stuff. Everybody so scared for their narrative to be messed up nobody even tries to think stuff through. Moonkyu picks out his insta baddie clothes, takes Jongin's pics, in exchange Jongin doesn't look like a plain jane and keeps his sponsorship deals and insta thot relevance and Moonkyu builds up his portfolio. Has nobody watched any fashion drama shows Gossip girl 2022? That's why he's always with him when he goes places. You can work with your friends it's a thing. And I'm just learning people even knew Moonkyu is into fashion. I am the first person to be like ehhhh with the lil friend group. Never liked that but that's for other reasons that actually make sense, like bad vibes. But knowing people out there bullying somebody who "fell off" and is trying to build themself back up with the help of a friend, mind you pretty much the only friend who talks about him frequently, like no I really don't like bullies especially bullies who try and disguise feeling threatened at a relationship they don't understand with petty banter and rude remarks. If you don't like somebody just say that, stand on it, don't be a coward and try and be like 'oh I'm just jokingly being mean'.
everytime a woman says they are only reading a book or consuming certain media cause a male pop star said he personally likes it my heart fades away all of woman kind weeps
It can be true but the patriarchy is strong enough no need to even say stuff like that.
Especially cause a lot of times the books are written by female authors. I wonder is it is the fame association or the fact that its men giving stuff validity. I think the goal of men reading women centric work is to understand women better and the fans want to know what the guy likes but many never give an actual opinion.
Even if they did the point is to form your own opinion which will never be the same as a mans not really.
4 example a looooong time ago when I was a teen kji was still recommending books to fans back when fans read actual books. A lot of girls got sprung by the fact that he read a korean translation of me before you
( I only watched the movie and ended up reading the second book cause finnick from hunger games and khalessi from game of thrones was in it) but it was a big deal at the timw.
Now and days it is really not in the sm ent image to be intellectual for some reason, I suppose fans don't like that idk.
Many thought of it as a...indicator of him being..idk romantic.
Which..is possible but actually looking back in his old interviews he basically said he mainly read books to imagine himself in the main role he said this many times.
So he generally has little interest reading books he wouldn't want to be in. Me before you was a tragic romance which is basically his entire acting career. Andante, he cared for ill people the entire drama and his girlfriend who passes away. Spring has come, he cared for his girlfriends family and eventually his sick mother. Miracle that we met, literally played an angel...guardian angel..like that's very obvious.
Even the superm show as we wish where for like the first time ever the managers said the members get to create the mini dramas they want to star in.
Mark even reenacted his parents engagement story. Kji ended up doing a tragic romance that included memory loss and a car accident. It lowkey is neverending cause he even made it clear he hates romance but talked about a romance movie from the 70s he watched....where the fiance died.
Bonus round he only has writing credits on one song and it makes a reference to this movie. A very obvious reference.
Some people like what they like for very specific reasons. Even if you read the book or watch the movie you can't feel how they felt while consuming that same thing. It is good to pass on likes or learn of new things from people but its your own personal experience that matters.
I love watching golden girls because I think old people are like large adult babies who can talk, most people would never know thats basically the only reason I watched the show so many times.
This stuff although is there to just figure out but I think many assume korean is so hard to understand and confusing we must rely on social media to tell us who the kdolls are. 1stly tv interviews say much more than fansubs and fandoms. Many people do say a lot about who they are but many people read more fanfic than interviews. Some read both but the fandom version is more fun. I can say this cause I read kpop fanfic since like 2014 neve got in the way of like me knowing real personalities and fandom creations. This is shots fired for some people at least but kji isn't really shy..sm made him shy. He was super go getting and excited back in 2012 . Some may disagree that this was fake and the real him is shy, but I disagree, outside of Korea is usually when he's more talkative both to strangers and in general. Now it's reserved for the fans and outside of that he was typically mum. Nobody saw that kji again until at least a year into super m. Not simply clowning around but speaking his peace and defending himself and sharing his opinions.
In super m he got to be loud and obnoxious without censor because that's "American style" promotion. Cool guys can also be funny and total jerks yet still well liked in America.
yes he is an anxious person but not shy and introvert is a stretch.
Shy baby bear jongin at least to the degree it's been sold is giving noona fanservice I'm sorry. Anyone can be shy at any given moment but shy as in a personality trait is a bit much for anyone who's an idols and literally interacts with new people everyday.
I LOVE pseudoscience and feel like many things in pseudoscience are very accurate and have a lot of truth in them. But personality tests are iffy at best and go only surface level of what makes up a person. I also don't believe the basis of the test is ... good either
It's important to note that it was made to pigeon hole women more than actually discover who a person truly was on the inside.
Those personality test are inaccurate on multiple levels, please research many books debunking the extrovert introvert myth similar to animals personality changes with environment and comfortability. The same shy person in New York can be an extrovert in Los Angeles. Also personal experiences can craft a person's being extroverted or introverted. It's not a 100 percent set thing that can't change...complete myth..one that America and a lot of first world countries have latched onto in the name of faux tribalism.
For multiple reasons I keep referring to other sources to expound upon the fact that it gives me major ick people can't see how gross the origins of a Eurocentric world war two control device to dehumanize women SHOULD NOT be used as an accurate test of any kind and it's based off of a very immoral and inhuman type of thinking. I highly recommend reading this for appropriate cultural scope. I think it's better explained by these author's.
The craze to me was honestly a bit scary with how many people quickly latched onto these labels and identified themselves like, for so many reasons nooo! It's really ick to me for lots of reasons, yes it's fun but many people label idols like this. Rare types and common types, introverts and extroverts and it's like the idols begin to play more into the roles they were assigned.
Jongin being branded as an introvert(the offstage version of exo kai still a character btw) was to I believe sell a certain image to the fans. Introverts don't go out to clubs and party with girls and their friends, they stay quiet and text on bubble and act like they are texting their middle school clique. It always gives I don't know anybody here guys come get me. Yet that obviously can't happen but it creates that illusion and further deepens the bond.
At a certain point kji just stopped really saying much cause the bear bear image is what people cared about. I remember early on he explained how much he didn't like fanservice but he would try to get better. Basically I think he may have liked the book because of it having a caretaker in it and he likes that caretaker role. Most visible when he's with kids.
He as a person has that as a strong part of his character. I wish people would try to look at things a little deeper. If one does feel the need to get something or consume something just like their fave did at least maybe one form your own opinion and enjoy your own personal experience first and foremost but also understand why that other person likes that thing. People like men written by women more than the women who write them. Understand it takes a lot of positive influence from women to make a man like that. I.e the mother and other older female role models.
I love multicultural cooking docuseries so much. its history, recipes and personal stories all mixed together. netflix, although they have a bunch of junk on it nobody wants to watch, has amazing cooking shows. The show Ugly delicious is very personal and human. I just learned about monoculture and how bananas in south america grown for american use are just based off one individual fruit so when a disease comes it wipes them all out cause they aren't breeding and creating genetic diversity. Basically they are all clones. Now india is starting to grow them but apparently they are gonna just run into the same problem eventually. Now I'm trying to figure out America's obsession with cloned food. Is it the aesthetic? All the superiority about food standards has actually been about wanting to put a price tag on food and shaming people who just wanted to eat whatever new stuff God just dropped. Now more people are gravitating towards the foods that have always been ridiculed in the west like korean, indian south american, jamaican/african.
