Not to re-heat these nachos but who did JYP (who has an argument for greatest living lyricist himself) pick to write the ONLY group song on TWICE's 10th anniversary album?

Mf'n KENZIE

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT, the Collective Action Comics in-depth review of Superman (2025) is out NOW!

The reaction to it has been overwhelming, to say the least.

Listen wherever fine podcasts are sold!

oh gawd i just realized how annoyed i'm going to be that they won't play most of my favourite songs

JUSTICE FOR PINK LEMONADE

(if they don't play Cheer Up, that's when we'll know it's over for Canada as a country, too)

Thanks! They added a second Hamilton show, so if you missed out, the queue is LOW

Being a fan of someone in your industry is so wild because everyone is like 'why are you stressed ? don't you have hook ups?' and like...my siblings in the struggle....if i did, do you think i'd be so publicly annoying about them?????

My pleasure!

Thank you for shouting out KENZIE!

I'm a Seulgi ult too(?)!

Please accept these mostly wholesome Seulgi memes in friendship and solidarity

A werewolf rips their shirt with the caption SEULGIIIIIIIII

Korean pop star Kang Seulgi sits laughing in a chart with orange and pink pieces of paper in front of her, she looks like a lesbian flag

It you're ever sad, just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist
at the same time as SEULGI

Korean pop star Kang Seulgi looks aghast with 4 question marks underneath

Listen, I'm a ReVe1uv so I'm obv biased, but EVEN EXCLUDING RV songs, you can't deny KENZIE's influence

Into The New World is *literally* THE protest song of the last 10 years - including a presidential impeachment! It JUST happened! ON THIS VERY APP!! THIS YEAR!!!

It's International Lesbian Day?

Korean pop stars Kang Seulgi and Irene from Red Velvet appear side by side.

Seulgi is wearing a pink (Irene's colour) shirt with a yellow (Seulgi's colour) bear that reads "you're so good at making me feel bad" while looking at Irene lustfully

it's working for me but i've seen others saying it's down & based on geography suggest it may be an issue with a specific server?

SHUM @shum138.bsky.social · 3d

just saw someone else ask re: the search being broken & all the replies agree that it is - maybe i'm just (un)lucky?

& yeah i tend to offload it from my phone during the day/workweek too (checked the app just now, works on there too))

SHUM @shum138.bsky.social · 3d

yes! i did a search for 'utami' (bc ofc i did) & it worked in both the 'explore' and 'search posts' for my own profile & yours for qa and it worked / i post too much about utami

someone said the folx who run the place have succumb to the posters' madness & that seems to be the case

SHUM @shum138.bsky.social · 3d

seems to be working for me (via the website at least) but lLists were acting up yesterday & folx' posts weren't appearing. seems like it's not just the ppl who run the place coming apart at the seems but the site itself

(related: #1 search term is Blacksky -from people wanting to migrate away lol)
