Every hope is lifesaving—still. So although support has massively slowed down for these six families—despite ongoing famine, all their homes destroyed, impending cold, a baby due soon (‼️)—we’ll still be here every hour or two.

A square white graphic. On the left is a stylized ink illustration of a kestrel falcon in black on white, without outline just the black marks on its wings and face, drawn from behind. His wings are partly open and his head is turned to the right. In his beak is an anemone poppy in red ink with a green stem. On the right is the title "Keep hope alive: a gaza giving circle" in ink-effect font. The text says "We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We distribute your contributions equally every week for sustainable support." In the bottom right corner in green text is the link https://tinyurl.com/HopeGivingCircle.

Trump went for a Covid shot and then set the CDC on fire.

If that ain’t that asshole in a nutshell.

I'm picking up what you putting down!

Jungkook of BTS, Korean man with dark hair wearing a short sleeve black tshirt, has 2 fingers pointed in someone's direction and smirking as if to say we're on the same wavelength.

It would definitely reduce us to ash but WORTH IT!

I know I want Tae to cover a rap line song bc he and I both would enjoy the hell out of it. I'm choosing Safety Zone bc I want to hear that flow in his baritone, his harmonies carrying the 'oooooo' background vocal throughline, and his take on Jaicko's outro.

I debated between Letter and Slow Dancing for a Jin cover and decided on Slow Dancing. The vibe is somewhat similar to my favorite Jin song, Tonight. I'm picturing an acoustic guitar version, slightly slowed down with his full range in effect.

I also had an epiphany while listening to Falling...

Jimin needs to cover it. Same rock band and arrangement but add his vocal fry a la last verse of Film Out. Bring back an updated Kitty Gang Jimin fit.

Every time I listen to Heaven I think about Jungkook.

Walk with me....add his hidden vocals and harmonies to it. Take that bass line during the fade out and overlay JK's voice on ad libs.

Yeah, that's it right there.

I promise this isn't just me looking for Yoonmin or Yoonkook crumbs but I think Yoongi would do a bomb ass take on either Alone or Somebody. I'm going with Somebody bc I feel like it could go next level if he added a rap verse.

@pantsawe.borasky.social hoping for a hopekook duet of Closer to You got me thinking about this thread again. Walk with me...

Truekook⁷ @truekook.blacksky.app · Apr 18

Now that I'm home I can return to my nightly performance thoughts. The Jin Tour announcement (!!) got me thinking about OT7's return to concerts & which of another member's songs I'd like each to cover.

Starting with Joon. I'd love to get his take on SDL.

3 things I liked about Diane Keaton:

1. Her work as Kay in The Godfather was so underrated.
2. I remember how gross the press tour was for Something's Gotta Give because she dared to be 60+ and sexy in a movie (meanwhile Nicholson...) She handled it with such class.
3. She embraced aging.

I genuinely cannot express how vital it is that you train yourself to recognize AI-generated images and videos for your own good because none of this is going away and many, many people are counting on you to fall for their shit

I think people need to watch the movie Snowpiercer. Not the fuck ass show on TV but the real movie. The back of the train always works with the front of the train.

The Roman Empire created the games for one reason — to distract the people from what the rich and powerful were doing. The NFL, Sports & entertainment is the distraction throughout history.
