This is just getting sad now. Can't perform at Daisy Chains because someone HURT themselves? Two on a hiatus?? It's a hot mess right now. I am one of those that was like thinking "three is better than none" and that "HxG will wanna profit off the group at their height which is now" but uh...this is sad and i'm worried it might just get worse and worse for these girl's health. I just think Postpone the entire tour until these girls are ready. PLEASE.

It's just a bit *much*. Firstly neurodivergency is different for everyone. I really don't like how people have been doing nothing but comparing themselves to the girls when it comes to this. "Sophia and I have ADHD and we both experience ADHD burnout so we must be similar" STOP. Firstly you are not Sophia, you may or may not experience the same things she does and I have to say the same thing when it comes to Daniela as well and her ADHD she has talked about. Stop putting them in the same box you are in, every person is different. Don't get me started on Megan and how the ED community reacted to her Pinterest board. It's just really invasive and I know the fandom is parasocial but let's respect their boundaries. I understand it may feel like "I can relate so much we must be so alike" but when it comes to things like this do not compare yourself to others let alone people who you do NOT know. It's weird. Just because that was shared with you doesn't mean you shouldn't respect that and try to compare yourself to that just so you feel closer to your bias. As a nuerodivergent person myself I know that idols have said they are nuerodivergent but I never would compare myself to that idol because I respect their boundaries and know that while the industry promotes and encourages parasocial behavior I do not know them and it's still none of my business.

I could've swore five months ago it was neutral and you could actually say things about katseye that were actually quite negative without being shamed for it. Now it is kinda just a parasocial fan sub with nuanced opinions where negative ones often get shamed but when did the shift happen? Maybe iconic by mistake era idk but there was a shift.

I was on a kpop forum (I will NOT say which one and tbh it was more of a thread place not really a forum) for about a good ten months. It was my hobby I put a lot of work into it but it was mainly for fun. I made many forums until the beginning of July which is when I woke up to basically all ten of the forums I made being completely removed as well as me being BANNED. I was confused so I messaged the adm1n that did it and they messaged me back with this Grok generated paragraph not about how sorry they were but that it was my fault because my posts violated copyright. They then told me that there was now a rule since JUNE of this year that posts which violate copyright will be removed. I said I understood but here's where I LOST IT.

I asked to be unbanned and the admin basically sent back a message that was just like "fuck you and fuck your forums too". They told me I won't be unbanned because I violated the copyright rule ten times and therefore have ten penalties and won't be unbanned..the rule that didn't exist until June. They then told me that they always had the rule but only recently put it in the rules sidebar. I have spoken to adm1ns and they don't gaf basically. I don't know if it's because there's so many unsympathetic k-netizens on the forum but this was just very frustrating and dismissive. I have moved on though.

Listen, I'm all for repetitions in k-pop. I am here for it. I love a catchy repetitive stuck in my head ear worm but unfortunately...that song was just annoying. I know a lot of people liked it but I didn't really like it. I thought it was abysmal. The instrumental sounds like elevator music and the lyrics were repetitive in a way where it was just really annoying. A good example of repeating the same thing constantly in k-pop is Gashina by Sunmi, that song does that it in a way where it just makes you want to get up and dance , GRLS makes me want to get up and turn it off.
