They're Back! They're Back, They're Back!

they're back! they're back, they're back!

all shade all tea but kpop fans who prioritize records, charts, awards, and views over having fun and enjoying the music are nine times out of ten losers who lack any type of accomplisments of their own in other areas of life so they use kpop as a vessel to be overly competetive, aggressive freaks who take credit for all the hardwork their favorite groups do just because they have the disposable time and money to spam watch music videos, buy albums, vote, zombie stream, and all that other over the top shit.

SHINee’s back babyyyyyyy

jfc i hate how much global influence america has and i hate how the uk still tries to pretend we have some ‘special relationship’ with them. fuck off the usa doesn’t give two shits abt the uk and it’s so obvious

The only problem I had with your review of Lore was your take on her big boobs. I’ve had big boobs since middle school (thanks no thanks puberty ugh) and while it is an artistic choice it’s also normal to have big boobs and be young? Idk if that’s what you were saying or not and this isn’t a criticism, just saying

i’ve got big tits too anon, dw i know it’s possible to be young and have boobs.

my problem isn’t really that she HAS big tits, one of them is that we get a lot of unnecessary panels kind of zooming in on them to the point where it feels that as a reader you’re leering at her. it feels even more concerning when we see persephone looking uncomfortable in her clothes (like at the party at the beginning) and we just gets shots of her boobs. combine that to the fact that nearly every male god so far (hades, apollo, zeus come to mind) has made comments about her body but also see her as childish/an object/a pawn that can be used it just doesn’t feel right?? it feels like she’s just being objectified.

what really makes me uncomfortable is how persephone is characterised as a really naive and young goddess in all this and no one seems to think it’s wrong to talk about her like this. in fact the only person who momentarily does is hades and that makes him the good guy bc he actually has to stop and think abt it for a second, even though he goes straight back to ignoring that afterwards. (with how he’s realising he knows nothing about her though maybe he’s starting to see her more as an individual than just a really pretty ass so i’m still hopeful).

i really hate how characters will bring up her age and say persephone is so young and then right after go back to ogling her big old booty like what??? and smythe doesn’t really show us the readers that this is a Bad Thing bc after any self reflection from the characters (mostly hades) abt how it’s wrong to just look at her this way is just brushed off later with more banter abt how sexy she is later. maybe this will change later but maybe it might not.

so really anon you’re right, there’s nothing wrong with her having massive boobs and being so young, it’s just that she’s characterised as a pretty vulnerable child who is standing on her own for the first time but also sexualised so much you can’t tell whether she supposed to be some kind of femme fatale instead. if persephone was written as a goddess who’s comfortable in her own body i wouldn’t have as much of an issue about this, but that’s really not the case.

that’s what comes to mind at first but there’s more i could add if you’d like

just had a dream where all i did was try to find a herbo, a himbo and a theybo.

i found all of them except the himbo 😔
