Cannot help but wonder if the only reason he has a grey chair is so that we can see him

But all jokes aside I really do have to hand it to the hyperfixation circuits in Jungkook’s brain, once he gets an idea of something that he wants to do / try he does not half-ass it or stop to think for even a moment. Gamer Jungkook was only a frail dream a few weeks ago and now he is Reality

Jungkook proving once more that he is indeed a BAD BOY (Black Attired Dude Being Outstandingly Young)

BTS as Sun Tzu:

SJ: In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity
JM: Attack is the secret of defense; defense is the planning of an attack
NJ: One mark of a great soldier is that he fights on his own terms or fights not at all
JK: If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him

Blue and Grey and I want it to be GAY as FUCK. Gauzy and saturated like 70s French porn. Yearning and yearning and yearning inside the glass walls of an enormous ice castle with broken thrones and half-revealed faces. Singularity but GAYER
OKAY QUESTION TIME: which BTS (or solo member) song with no mv would you want to go back in time and give a high production music video to? And what would you want to see in said mv? 👀

Brand: Hey Taehyung, great to meet you, we would love for you to do an ad shoot for our product, maybe like -

Taehyung: I would like to look powerful yet breedable. My biceps should show, and I want to bare my neck as I stare into the camera

Brand: I guess that’s fine?

Taehyung: Be there in 15

I’ve been on vacation for 2 days and I’ve read 3 books and 2 fics and I’m only now realizing that in the last few years I somehow… forgot how much I love to read? It’s so good, and I haven’t made enough time for it, and what a sadder and less interesting life that’s made. Gonna turn it around now!

In the long ago times there was a browser extension that replaced “politically correct” with “treating people with respect” and it was honestly quite eye opening how stupid the complaints about it were, even outside the Internet. “Wokeness” could use the same treatment in our brains
in online corners like these I think people largely recognize how credulous, unprincipled opposition to "wokeness" functioned as lightly papered over defenses of impunity, but it's one of those drums people should probably start beating for normies
Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

Okay here is my namgi day video, my computer wasn’t working so I had to use my phone which means my clips were limited :(

You go from a big city to the biggest city, young and hungry and desperate to prove yourself. You meet a boy who never had to prove anything but decided he will anyway. He has a fast way of talking, connecting ideas together without space for you, and he is the most annoying person you’ve ever met

Came to the realization tonight that AO3 is gooning for women and while I’m not the first to have the thought I am totally bowled over by it
November 12, 2025 at 2:26 AM
BTS by if they want you to say “good boy” to them, least to most:

SJ: Don’t say obvious things
YG: External validation = trap
HS: Only if he’s been superlative (by his standards)
TH: If he’s in the right mood
JK: If you are on the List
JM: Multiple times please
NJ: “Desperation” isn’t strong enough

Do you ever think about how Yoongi really likes to perform holding a mic when he’s rapping, even within a heavy dance performance, so even when everyone else has a headset mic Hoseok also holds a mic so that Yoongi won’t be the only one

I’m really glad for Namjoon that he has a Jimin, the one member of Bangtan he can flirt with full-chested and unafraid, scratching that smooth come-on guy itch in his brain in a very satisfying way

BTS by their most cursed sex playlist song:

TH: It Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got That Swing), Ella Fitzgerald
NJ: Life Goes On, BTS
YG: 15 Step, Radiohead
JM: It’s Not Right But It’s Okay, Whitney Houston
HS: C’mon N’ Ride It, Quad City DJs
SJ: Super Tuna, Jin
JK: Popcorn, Hot Butter

This is not exactly the question but reminds of a list I made when Post Malone covered Hootie and the Blowfishfor the Pokémon 25th anniversary, what song they would have covered, and I don’t remember anything about the list except Hoseok was TLC’s Creep (dance, vocal and outfits) and I stand by it
QUESTION OF THE DAY: what song(s) would you, in a perfect world, want to see BTS (or any solo member) cover or remake in a new style?

I want Taehyung to cover literally any Johnny Cash song... but also I think BTS should do Shinee's Don't Call Me (down to voicing phone call parts) 😆

BTS as my younger twin nephew:

NJ: Yapping 24/7
JK: If it’s fun, he’s gonna do it
HS: Obsessed with collectibles
JM: The Ideas Man of the group
YG: Knows the right way to do things, which is his way
TH: Swans in and out of rooms like royalty
SJ: Believes yelling and charm can overcome any obstacle

Overheard Taegi dynamic from my 3 year old twin nephews:

A: B, can you talk to me? Please? Please? Please, B??

B: I’m just thinking…

A: B, stop thinking. I wanna talk to you
