we call these hot pockets
jcsalterego.bsky.social Jerry Chen @jcsalterego.bsky.social · Jun 12
the best pockets of bluesky carry small forum energy. show up enough in the replies with something meaningful (or the absolute dumbest thing possible), gather a few likes, give a few likes, hit "Follow," people hit "Follow," and now you've got regulars in your TL who you've known for decades.

Wonwoo in his 'nerdy' shirt living in my head rent free for several years. Wonwoo in the THIS MAN cards about to demand rent from ME.

I've had a type of 'hot quiet geek' since I was a teen. ISTG Wonwoo was custom-built just for me.
Singer/rapper Wonwoo from the group Seventeen. He appears to be in a bedroom. Behind him to the left is a bed with rumpled pillows, and to the right is a window with long tan and cream drapes. He is sitting in front of a desk with a computer on it. His black hair is combed forward and his glasses reflect the blue light of a computer screen. He is wearing a white shirt with a graphic. The graphic looks like a piece of paper taped to the shirt, and the paper reads NERDY. inger/rapper Wonwoo from the group Seventeen. This is a photo for his upcoming EP with Jeonghan, also of Seventeen. The EP's title is THIS MAN and it appears above him in this image. Photographed in profile, he is wearing a shiny black jacket, no glasses, and his collarbone is exposed. He is looking down with a serious expression on his face.

KAI KNOWS AND IS DIRECTING ME FROM AFAR LIKE THE GOD HE IS.

Had a complete brain fart a bit ago while writing notes and couldn't remember the group name EXO... so just scribbled 'Kai and those other guys'.
All those other guys patting Kai on the head. His hair is shaved in preparation for military enlistment.

It breaks my heart thinking about how this was the last time they saw ARMY before the MOTS tour was cancelled due to the pandemic. 💔

BTS have pretty much always been so hot as to be unbelievable but the Speak Yourself tour was really a direct attack on us all from seven different directions

DPR IAN has nearly broken me today. First, the MV. Then a listen-through of the EP 'SAINT'. The track SKINS... I'm not sure how to articulate its impact on me. The track SAINT is powerful. The track LIMBO gave me goosebumps at one point. This man is an artist's artist.

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ surprise kai ♥
An excerpt of a scholarly paper on queerness in Hallyu. The relevant text reads: The following section discusses how K-pop music videos use fashion, make-up, body movement, and the futuristic imageries, to not only construct soft masculinities of the performers but also to blur the lines between genders and explore liminal gender expressions. First, BigBang’s Fantastic Baby (2012) is considered due to the utilization of hairstyles and make-up, followed by the discussion of fashion choices in music videos by EXO and XIA. A still from the EXO MV for the song Power. In the still, Kai is dressed in a dark shirt and wears a pair of tan-strapped goggles around his neck. He is facing the camera, aiming a futuristic gold gun at the viewer. His eyes are blue and gems adorn his outer eye and temple area. His hair is dark with a longer top and short sides trimmed into a distinctive stripe pattern. The background is dark but has neon pink and blue details. The text caption for the image reads: Image 2 Kai performing soft and tough masculinities in EXO’s Power (2017)

Is anybody else watching #MakeMate1? I've been enjoying it. At the end of episode 1, I scribbled down my picks, and I think most (or all?) are in the top 12. I'm an indifferent reality program watcher, and most audition programs are meh to me, but I like this. The boys are so sweet-natured. 🥰
