Looking for anything black/neutral colors, something I can use a cover on cover with :’) love tomie and JI but I’m starting an internship this fall and would like something less vibrant/more professional.

Recently, I’ve been seeing posts about Jk’s livestreams on instagram particularly and he almost always is drunk or drinking? I don’t know if I’m just overreacting or what but I am starting to be a little concerned about these lives. First and foremost, I’m not calling him an alcoholic or an addict. As an indigenous woman who lives on a reservation, alcoholism runs rampant in my community along with illegal consumerism of alcohol. I am fairly familiar with the effects of alcohol use and the way it develops in young people. I’m just noticing the frequency of which he does this on weverse. I understand he’s young and having his experiences that we all do but I feel like this type of consumption is getting to be a little closer to something that has the potential to develop into more than the occasional celebratory drink without intervention.

Basically, when does his behavior and actions become enough to warrant intervention from the older guys? When does it get to the point where they tell him, “hey let’s chill out on this for a bit.” Because to me, he’s tiptoeing along the edge. Recently I believe he showed texts from his laptop (please correct me if I’m wrong.) What happens when these little things turn into more? I don’t know, what do you all think? I feel like I’m an outlier whereas everyone else seems to enjoy watching his drunk lives and more or less glorifying his actions and behavior.

EDIT: Seemed to have crossed some lines bringing this up. Apologies if this was a touchy subject. I’m just simply voicing my concerns and what I notice, I’m not diagnosing anyone. I don’t watch the lives but I see the fan response online and it’s a bit weird to me to see people more or less glorifying and encouraging this behavior, though not necessarily concerning now. Yes drinking culture is different everywhere and coping methods exist. I think it is good for us to acknowledge that this does have the potential to develop into addiction whether we want to admit it or not. Addiction is addiction and it’s extremely prevalent in younger populations, particularly gen z. I come from a community where self medicating with alcohol is extremely common and one where mental health is still stigmatized. Excuse me for noticing behaviors I find harmful in a celebrity I admire. I don’t care if he drinks, I’m concerned about the frequency and amount of which he possibly drinks. I don’t know about others but to me, being drunk on live as such a high profile celebrity is not normal and I’m tired of people trying to say it is.
