Should I keep my previous pair?

After hitting a milestone at work I got my first new pair of Timbs in about 6 and 1/2 years, it’s actually kinda interesting to me to see the damage and how much cleaner the new ones look.

I’ve been thinking of keeping the old one but at the same time they are really well loved and used in manual labor so they don’t look the greatest.

What do you think?

Can someone describe their lore for me?

So tbh I’ve known about the group for a while, I commented on their shock performance video not to long after it was released. I love the catchiness of the song and added it to my running workout playlist right away and I was aware of their company becoming a ‘family label’ with JYP but I never really became a Stan in a sense.

Since their latest release [Dang], I started to dig into some of their latest performances and songs since I’ve always like On:n’s voice and unique visuals which I love.

When it comes to the mvs, I really love the visuals and design, especially with deadman walking and Dang. But I’m so confused, is it mostly vibes over storyline or is there a hidden storyline that I don’t know? 🤷‍♀️ Any clarification would be super super helpful and I’d love to give it a read, thank you! ❤️

Can you explain the hate on Mnet/ CJ to me?

I have been a kpop fan for a while and I always get told not to support or watch MNet or CJ to the best of my ability but no one has really gone into detail about why aside from the fact ‘their a bad company, they treat people horribly’ and call them ‘Msnake’ all day long without explaining anything and I’m just confused.

Their videos get suggested to me a lot, sometimes even featuring artists I like but I just don’t click on it.

Sometimes they still have millions of views, thousands even. So is it just fans being hypocritical?

Sounds kinda silly I know, but I’m not on twitter or instagram to search for any of this information and I figured maybe people here have some more information or could tell me their views on it.

Kpop stores in Toronto?

Does anyone know of some stores in Toronto that sell kpop albums? (Ideally MONSTA x or Wonho?). I’ve been trying to find the Reason Album, Off the Beat (I.M) and another by Wonho but the stores locally to me only have artists I don’t listen to plus a handful of copies of [The Dreaming].

While is an album I adore a lot, it’s not something I’m looking for at the moment. I’m not local to Toronto and will def google search for stores when I’m there, but I was curious to read what you guys could suggest.

(And ps, to those doing the artist send offs, do they usually allow albums? I was thinking of getting [The Reason] or [No Limit] for this reason, ty in advance. 🙇‍♀️ ❤️🫰🏻).

Views vs Sucess, Victon has amazing songs and lots of views. Where’s the fandom?

Victon is one of those groups I have come to love over the last couple years, while I wouldn’t claim to be a Stan, there’s just something so special about the members and their music.

After taking a break from kpop, they are one of those artists I find myself coming back to a lot. This time around, I noticed some of my favourite songs have millions and millions of views. But, why is it I never see Alice’s (fans) online often?

Are they quietly supporting the group with streaming? I’m not upset at all, but it feels like once in a blue moon I come across a fan I can fangirl about Sejun and Hanse with. Talking about their voices and my favourite songs but it’s so rare.

Time of Sorrow came across my homepage last night and has 4.1M views as of now, while some of my favourite music show stages like Nightmare, Nostalgic Night and Stupid a clock have a lot of good views as well but I feel like I never see people talking about those songs.

Of course everyone has a different side of the internet, and maybe I just don’t see enough from fans on my side. But it made me really curious about views and success.

What do you think about co ed projects these days? (KARD, ADP)

When going through some of my older playlists I came across a couple ‘older’ songs from KARD and for some reason it has got me thinking about other co ed groups in the industry including All Day Project.

Because of the announcement KARD did recently, did it make you think any differently about co ed groups/artists and wanting to check out more in the future?

For those who listen to ADP or are fans, did listening and coming across ADP make you dig into other groups like KARD? Or make you more open to the idea of co ed artists in the kpop or music scene in general?

I’ve always been a boy group fan so I’m just genuinely curious~

Is there any dress code for tour stops? And if I denied freebies would that make fans feel hurt?

This is the first time I’ll be attending tour of my ult after being a fan for years and I wanted to do it right. While yes I did get VIP for the Toronto stop, I couldn’t help but wonder if there’s been anything going around regarding a dress code or ideal colours to wear for the concert?

I’m not on twitter and haven’t been for a long time, so I figured if I were to ask here maybe some people can share what they have seen. If not, that’s totally okay to, I’m planning to be far more prepared this time around (I saw OOO, and I didn’t do a great of job of planning), so I’ll make sure to bring a clear plastic bag, have more water etc.

-
Edit to add: I’m not the biggest on collecting merchandise anymore, I have Kihyun fan meeting life is journey pouch, a bee and a mini key ring of the light stick but I don’t plan to get a ton of merch. Maybe a hoodie or shirt and the VIP BENEFITS.

Would a fan who put a ton of energy into their freebies be hurt if I say no? I don’t want to accept it if I won’t give it the proper attention and space. I don’t want it to end up in a moving box and just sit there, that doesn’t feel right to me.

Received my letter that I will no longer be on government assistance. (Canada).

My dad showed up tonight with two letters from the program I’m on here in Canada, while it’s a little nerve racking I can’t help but be proud to. I will no longer be receiving assistance from them going forward. Even if I was embarrassed of my mental health and struggles in the past, I hope people here and in similar positions that things do get better and I’m genuinely rooting for you every step of the way.

My struggles will still be there, and even if the job I do isn’t glamorous for many I have never been in this type of position before. Let alone in a place to talk with my dad about setting up a retirement plan and making a budget (I get paid bi weekly).

We all start somewhere even if it’s not somewhere you want to be, keep going forward and don’t give up. You never know the light at the end of this tunnel. You can do this I promise! 💪🏻

(This is the longest job I have had since some of my major major episodes and it’s been 9 months. :-))

Would you remove a scene entirely or comeback to it later?

So for the last little while I’ve been re thinking about it one of my scenes I have characters go through. Without saying a lot my apartment was broken into and I felt so violated and other things, while things were stolen I am okay. But as I re read this one thing, I can’t help but wonder if I should keep the scene.

Yes it does serve purpose with the plot and introduces another ‘main’ character. But at the same time should I remove it altogether or wait after some time? It’s only been a month and a half since it happened and I’ve been dealing with moving.

Would you keep a scene or come back to it later after you’ve had some time to heal and step back? I have so many other scenes im excited to write about and focusing on.

Question for older/more experienced women/women presenting lesbians. Would you go out with a masc presenting newbie?

I did edit this so hopefully it makes a little more sense now but i was genuinely curious about this, and I’m open to a wide range of opinions too.

I am out to everyone in my life but have struggled for a long time with being ‘proudly’ out, this year amongst my other list of goals I’ve made with my therapist, I wanted to try dating and work on my confidence. I recognize a lot of my dreams seem to have that loneliness meaning.

I am very very new to the dating world and only talked with a couple girls, but as a newly twenty five year old who hasn’t dated anyone I wonder if it puts people off

The conversations always seem to flow okay, in one she planned to meet up after work for some ice cream/ frozen yogurt at a local place, but that was based on her camping trip (currently going through heat wave here and tornado warnings)so totally understandable right?. But it just stopped. I dunno if after tinder gold stops it deletes your messages but I just get ghosted. Cause of all the things I said I highly doubt me saying I work retail was the off putting thing (I’m thinking about going back to school, I just have a thousand things to narrow down).

They seem to go okay, we always vibe and bounce off each other. But it never goes further than that. I have zero experience with dating and figured maybe dating older can help me you know? But at the same time I’m like oh should I be honest with them and bring that up?

Is there a thing on dating apps that show I’m on others? Cause I’m on two different apps but I never mention that. I’m careful when I message and make sure I don’t respond too soon. I’m totally open to dating younger but I have been into older women for a while 😅.)

Would you be honest with someone that something said made you uncomfortable or hey we just aren’t the best fit before deleting a message or blocking? I just feel like I did something wrong but not to sure what.

[Bedrock] [Twitch/Code Reedem] How long will this last/ be okay for?

Over the last little while I have been trying to reset my password for my account but have been struggling to get a password reset link to my email, which is sad because recently I received some codes for the latest drops due to watching streams on twitch.

I'm worried about how long the codes will last for and if it will stay around as I figure this account issue out. I have several capes on my account and find the fun in collecting them this way. If I don't redeem the code in anyway, will it won't be claimed by anyone else right?

This isn't the first time I have had issues with my minecraft account and feel very defeated, I'm going to step away for a bit to focus on moving places irl and come back to it after I've had a bit more rest.

Looking to upgrade my headphones (closed back/open back welcomed).

Over the last little while I have been heavily considering switching headphones and looking at various models and posts online, while I will go into a local store and a bestbuy to try on some headphones, I was looking for people's opinions (both positive and negative) feedback on their closed back/ open back headphones.

I previously had the beats solo 3 where I had two pairs, both of those times I have had issues with the fabric of the cuffs (which I believe is due to wearing them in the gym/ sweat.) but I am planning to not do that going forward with my new pair and use them for casual wear, and checking the audio of my photography clips/ videos. I also listen to a wide variety of music but casually. & I am not picky about bass at all.

I am from Canada and have a wide price range, I just don't feel like going back to beats if I'm going to have the same issue.

*(Edit to add; in the past I have used skullcandy and airpod earbuds in the past, skullcandy was okay but did not fit properly in my ears which is why I turned to the larger on ear headphones).

Wanting to switch from beatsolo 3, what are your thoughts on the airpod max?.

I am looking to get some opinions from people who use them.

I previously had only used beats solo3, I had purchased the beats solo 3 twice, and both of those times I have had issues with the fabric of the cuffs (which after some thinking, is because I used them in the gym consistently instead of my airpods/ it was caused by sweat overtime). I am not planning to wear them other then casual youtube watching and checking the audio in my photography clips/videos.

I am open to a wide price range, + I am going to go to bestbuy to try some of their on site headphones they have in stock on my day off from work sometime this week once things get settled but have considered getting these for a very long time.

Any opinions both positive and negative is heavily welcomed.

*Edited.

Best over ear headphones in your opinion.

Without getting to much into it, I was recently robbed and my previous headphones were one of the many things stolen from me and I know there is probably a high likely hood of not getting those back. I am looking to get some opinions from people who use the bose headphones, I know some who have a really good experience but I feel like I couldn't get some honest answers from them on any of the downsides.

Learning perspective | Would you move this middle ruin back or wait until the general foundation of the large ones are finished first?

This is a copy of my survival world, the area I am standing is going to be a main view point when I eventually build my bee farm. I really like this general idea but can't decide if the middle ruin should be moved back a little more since the other two ruins would be so big.

I'm not very great with perspective and wanted some other opinions, thank you!

u/goldenskies_x — 5 months ago

I've been going through a tough time in my personal life, dealing with a mixture of general burnout amongst other things. But as I get back to things and they get better, I've been getting more creative again to, writing more often, trying to get back into my drawings and even taking up minecraft again.

I'm currently in a creative world of my survival world that I started in February, I wondered what you thought on the perspective as I do like it, but at the same time 50/50 on. I am not planning to building a direct copy, but the final image is from hermitcraft last season (season 10) of an idea I loved. The second image is the idea I had while in the middle I wondered if I should move it back just a little bit.

Thanks for your thoughts!

Without getting to much into things I'm slowly starting to take back control in my life as I get treatment for certain things and as I do so I have finally picked up a stable basic job in the food industry, but I have come to realise its just not where my passion lies anymore.

I'm looking to get back on track in many aspects of my life but one of my top focuses is rebuilding my resumes and gaining references that I desperately lack. I started volunteering in similar fields (wildlife rehabilitation centre for birds and another org. that focuses on planting trees, community meet ups/events and other similar things), since I turned 25 not to long ago I'm severely behind because of my previous issues, but I can see a lot of good positive things in front of me, I'm curious about what people think and how they would get started.

I'm currently working at a grocery store as I figure out the next step, I plan with talking with professionals in the areas of interest including in person meetings, looking into attending conventions and building my resume. (+I have several courses I have bookmarked that I'm going to be discussing with my parents further. I'm interest in conservation worker, Ecologist, Freshwater Ecologist, Forester/Planning Forester and many others I'm just narrowing things down)

Any other ideas I would be greatly appreciative, I'm not on twitter or Instagram so this was def a place I wanted to ask and do some more reading on. I recently followed large orgs in Canada and their pages to keep up to date with job listings and other activities as well.
