I’m 32 and tracked my fiber for a week mostly out of curiosity.
I was getting like 12g a day.
The recommendation is 25–35g, which honestly explained a lot. I always had mid-afternoon crashes, bloating, and just random stomach stuff I never really thought about.
The tracking apps I tried didn’t really help either. MyFitnessPal tracks fiber, but it’s buried behind calories and macros. Cronometer felt way too detailed for what I wanted.
I basically just wanted an app that told me one thing:
Did I hit my fiber today or not?
So I built one.
It has a daily ring for your fiber goal, barcode scanner, 200+ USDA foods, and a plant diversity score. That last part was kind of surprising to me. A lot of gut health research points to variety per week, not just total grams.
A few honest surprises after using it for ~6 months:
- Getting to 30g isn’t that hard once you realize where fiber actually comes from. Beans, oats, raspberries, chia, avocado, etc.
- Plant diversity was harder for me than the actual fiber goal.
- A lot of packaged “high fiber” foods are not as useful as they make themselves sound.

Would genuinely love feedback on the food database or anything that feels off.

What’s that old show from 1st gen that did cruel pranks?
Does anyone remember that prank show from 1st gen that was literally insane? I remember they pranked an h.o.t (?) member into thinking they accidentally shot one of their members or smth. I can’t find any clips from the show either unfortunately, but I remember watching a clip on YouTube. Anyone remember the name?

Weird 1st gen mystery album
I found this album called Friend by someone named Rubalcava Mahalko. When listening to it I thought it sounded like a 90’s korean boygroup made it. I can’t find any info about the songs either.. The songs all have a weird filter and it says it was released 2026, and all the songs have atleast 10000+ streams which is so weird, but its obviously a 1st gen kpop boygroup/boy duo. does anyone know who made these songs?
Edit: in ''Observe A Moment Of Silence'' it ends mid song and plays another song. its all kind of eerie and im really confused...
Here’s the link: https://open.spotify.com/album/2Jki2ZXYigoCQAtfyqyuEp?si=lMggsSvuTMukKuMhWkUsoQ
HEAT - My Way
Some of you may know this already, but I'm completely obsessed with this song. I had already posted this MV before, but I discovered something fascinating recently: there are three different MV edits. I don't think I've seen that before.
https://youtu.be/8iXsj8gH5Wg?si=YPAiVwL7EsOWHvmm - This one is mainly focused on the choreography. There are some behind the scenes clips throughout.
https://youtu.be/pz1NncOpWa8?si=U8acm0sODJA5pjt5 - This one is similar to the first, but the behind the scenes clips are longer, it contains bloopers and alternative footage.
https://youtu.be/Nyp9OeK7AVY?si=j5ehijhkd-6bmkZJ - This one is a short film about a journalist trying to take pictures of a criminal group. YuJin is watching over him and also acts as a vigilante.
I don't know if there are any other versions out there, but these are the ones I found.
U;Nee with Shim Eun Seung ♡
Yesterday, while listening to Shin Eun Seung, I came across this photo of her with U;Nee. I’m not sure if it’s been shared here before, but I wanted to upload a higher-quality version. While looking into it, I discovered something really interesting: U;Nee and Shin Eun Seung were actually involved in a project together around 2005 called Avex & Z-Link (Jet Link) This link contains information about this compilation album!!
The two artists reportedly participated in a compilation album connected to the project, and they were also the only confirmed artists who officially signed contracts and performed at the 2005 Aichi Expo in Japan to promote it. U;Nee’s hit song “Call Call Call” was even planned as the album’s main promotional track.
What’s strange, though, is that the project seems to have quietly disappeared. Even though both U;Nee and Shim Eun Seung confirmed its existence and performed at Aichi Expo, there’s almost no information about the album or its lineup online today.
At the time, news sources mentioned that the company planned to sign a total of 8 or 9 female artists for the project. However, because the album was apparently released in very limited quantities, never officially distributed digitally, and more than 20 years have passed since then, the full tracklist and the identities of the remaining artists are still unknown and absent from official music databases.
Personally, I feel like artists such as Kil Gun and Chae Yeon could have been involved, but that’s only my own speculation.
Sadly, after U;Nee’s passing (RIP to my queen), Shin Eun Seung later became known in the media as a “scandal maker.”
Around 2015–2016, Seungri, former member of BIGBANG, filed a lawsuit against her, claiming she had scammed him out of 2 billion won. Not long after the news spread, Seungri withdrew the lawsuit and stated that they had reconnected after about a year and resolved the “misunderstanding” between them. Even so, the controversy caused irreversible damage to Shin Eun Seung’s public image.....
On top of that, she also faced constant media attention regarding her age, plastic surgery rumors, and relationships. Eventually, saying that she had developed a fear of the internet and public scrutiny, Shin Eun Seung completely retired from the entertainment industry.
which groups tried the "visual kei aesthetic" (other than TVXQ for the "Triangle" era)

Help me find this song
Help me find a song from this tik tok 🙏🙏🙏🙏
My name is Iz album
Got this album yesterday. Some of you might know her as Can*D with her Dominate album that came out in 1999.
This version I got was during her original debut in 1997. Since photos of this album isn't really anywhere besides the front and back, I wanted to put it on here for anyone who was curious about this version and what was in it.
The album songs are the same as the ones in the Dominate album besides a slight difference in the timing of the songs.
Do you think this is true?
Video I recently posted. Press on pic to see comment. Do you agree with the comment?
