I'm reading Raymond Chandler and enjoying his prose so much. "He sounded like a man who slept well and didn't owe too much money." Sksksksks this is up there with Fitzgerald's descriptions of people, I'm so tickled

I really hope Namjoon's exhibition travels because having it only in one city, in one country, on one continent, is so unfair 😭
one thing I wish stan culture did less of, although I know it will never happen, is the insistence that everything is that Lady Gaga "spectacular, amazing" meme. If Jimin says "I like apples", we don't need a 10-part thread manifesto that he is promoting sustainable farming. you know??
I deep cleaned the kitchen and needed an audiobook to listen to as I did it, so I put on To Catch A Fascist about the rise of neo-Nazi/white supremacist groups in the US and Antifa's efforts to dox them. Light reading, you know. Learned a lot. But I think the overall observation that also applies
Listening to a random Bangtan playlist on Spotify and my god it's a banger after another
Just logged into my online banking and a notiff popped up asking me permission for my bank to feed their content into my Instagram and Facebook We live in HEEEEELLLLL
MAYBE got a good idea on how to start the chapter.... maaaaybe....
Anna@springchives.bsky.social · 3d agosigh, I had the WIP brewing in the back of my brain all day, kept thinking about it in the supermarket, the cafe, on my walk, but NO BREAKTHROUGH. it'll come to me. I evoke the spirit of WWH
what I love about these US shows is that I have no idea where the fuck they are. East Rutherford sounds like a place you ended up at for missing a turn, like where the hell are you, are you okay, do you need me to come get you
Angling the Zoom call video just so to conceal the fact that I'm doing my nails

I just thought "okay, I better go through all my messages and just reply to everyone in one sitting", and I realised this is the exact same as ppl of yore "tending to their correspondence" by writing 10 letters to all their moots, some shit different format.
There's a Namjin AI picture going around X with almost 50k likes. HOW ARE PEOPLE SO DUMB. It's a good fake! But the scenario is completely unrealistic. Ppl need to learn to be more critical, oh my god
I love overhearing couples' fights, this woman just got so mad at this dude that she switched to ranting at him in her mother tongue, now neither me or he know what she's saying but we both know he's cooked
aaarrggh uuurghgh a bit stuck with the WIP right now. waiting for some kind of a flash of genius. I hate writer's block
That video of JK taking a sip of Seokjin's beer is killing me, he's like HYUNG IS THIS ALLOWED, HYUNG ARE YOU SURE WE CAN DRINK THIS? baby you're turning 29 next month
while I think 90% of kpop fandoms beefing with each other is dumb as hell, the remaining 10% is impressed by the spite and vitriol that keeps stans fighting other stans. every day these ppl wake up and choose violence
I love writing Seokjin so much, he's so fucking funny. but then it's me writing it. so do I just find MYSELF funny??? is this me??? send help

I did a roller coaster with this of "oh I remember him, oh this is sad, let me go to his wikipedia to read about his life, wait what's this allegations section, women accused him of what, okay well the sadness is now over, that was fast"

BTS has given me impossible standards, someone was showing me a video from their holiday where in a restaurant there was a traditional dance number for entertainment, and I watched it like "...but look at these men, they're all completely out of sync?? unacceptable."
my 4yo niece is currently imprinting on me and it's giving pure namkook energy Me: what's your favourite colour 4yo: pink Me: that's a good one, i like yellow 4yo: wait, MINE IS YELLOW. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN YELLOW *clings to my neck* this was probably 90% of namkook dorm interactions way back
Maybe one day I should reread The Book of Achilles because I thought the book was subpar, poorly written, and lacking interiority, but to this day it continues to be lauded. And maybe I should reread it to find out if we all really read the same book.
I hope one day someone is as obsessed with me as this fly circling around my flat is with me
Apart from everything that Grammy-affiliated (allegedly.. source?) woman said on her Insta, is she not outright saying BTS should have gone to the Recording Academy BEHIND CLOSED DOORS to negotiate? REALLY? you're putting it on MAIN that that's how it's done? I mean I guess we all knew it but wow
I wonder if the boys will do any US talk show appearances? In which they would obviously be asked about the Grammys... Could be juicy
why do all these ppl always make social media content while sitting in their cars that's so sad do they have nowhere to be
