FIRST IMPRESSION OF SEVEN

I watched the video as soon as the Weverse notification popped up, and in total truth:

my 💥reaction💥 moment to the MV was the laundromat.

Because I am a Laundry Person.

I wasn't going to say anything, but then I saw JK's brother's story promoting Seven, (and I 💜LOVE💜 it!)

😅😅😅

This is just perfect humor and timing, for my head. Hysterical, coming from the brother. LOVE 💜 IT.

Laundry People understand.

YAY!

Many thanks to @roo-bastmoon for the encouraging, thoughtful reminders of how the online voting process works.

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Congrats BTS and Jimin!

Five trophies to take home!

And Jimin is the FIRST soloist in HISTORY to win the TMA Popularity Award! Now all Tannies have achieved an end-of-year award.

Well done, ARMY!!

😮 Oh, this looks like something we've seen before. (From rkive's Instagram.... 😭)

😅💜😅💜 FABULOUS - how does he know just what I (and the other infinity-millions) need to see?!? This is perfect.

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO I LOVE JUNGKOOK

Promo for Seven and i can’t even say I’m surprised because this is so Jungkook

LOOOK AT HIM

😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

Artie has the wisdom - and their words are always good for me.  My child is queer, and I ache for their safety and happiness.   That being said, I really appreciate the direct reminders from @chikooritajjk​ of how much danger and hypocrisy actually exists throughout our cis-het dominated world.  It is staggering.

You know that quote that is often misattributed to Einstein "Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results"

Although it wasn't something that he said, the meaning still holds true.

I have two posts and four points to share

1. How to report accounts and posts.

Tumblr

Reporting Update - Tips!

Ngl it makes me happy to come back here and see the amount of people sharing this post and reporting the accs that need to be suspended. I

One of the things thats really important is to remember that the more you interact with a tweet the harder it is to have it removed and taken down. If you're having a hard time getting a post down, I would suggest messaging reporting accounts and included SS for them to share it to a wider audience. Mobility in numbers can help bring accounts down faster.

2. The thing about hate is that it absolutely solves nothing. The mythology behind "defeat hate with even more hate" is such an archaic old view, and honestly quite stupid.

Especially when it comes to queer people.

If you are a heterosexual person, who is spreading hate under the name of a potential queer couple, then what you're doing is not defending said people, what you're doing is endangering their lives.

If your solution to "protecting jikook" is to continue the cycle of hate, not only will you be going against Jimin's and Jungkook's ethos of choosing kindness, but you're also doing is playing with queer peoples lives.

2. Spreading Hate leads to hate crimes

On June 2, Fong Hui Tung, and Lua Kai Hei, were out shopping in Hong Kong when they were brutally murdered and stabbed in broad daylight - 5pm in the afternoon.

The murderer had purchased a 12inch knife right before he stabbed both women to death. The issue is not only the fact that this is a hate crime, but the bigger issues is that because they are being reported on media outlets that they were only friends, not only invalidates, them, their relationship, but it also makes it so that their murder is NOT categorized as a hate crime.

The erasure of their relationship is a constant battle that we have to constantly fight against when it comes social justice and legality for LGBTQIA+ people. We not only have the public that hate us for what we are, but we also have an entire system that is built on excluding us from our basic human rights.

Our fear is not singular.

So this idea that you're going to fight back, or get back at people, is moot because for you - and I'm talking to the people who want to "protect jikook" - there is no risk, you don't risk your safety, nor do you have to risk prejudice based on your identification, but you're not viably risking anything because you hide behind a screen and log off at the end of the day, but for us, this is something we do have to fear outside of social spaces.

3. if you are using a queer couple, and you're using them as a means to incite hate and violence, then I think this community needs to accept that this is all a you problem - not me though, I've warned people about the dangers of social media, and yet a majority here takes it lightly. But in the same manner that ARMY is to blame for tkkrs, then it's the same for Jikookers and this new breed thats coming out. While you're idly standing by, and just ignoring the issue, another cult is forming with the same mentality, the same hate, and the same malicious intention as taekookers.

And when people look back and ask how it got so bad, I'll be sipping my whiskey while I see this community implode.

It's not a morality concern, nor is it being "holier than thou" when the call for advocacy comes into question.

Because as I mentioned if you're using a queer couple to spread hate because you gain clout from being hateful - as we have seen the past few months of bullying as an example - and because you get a high from wanting to go higher in the followers count, then just remember the higher you go up, the higher the fall will come.

Because you'd be stupid to think that being hateful will surround you with people who wouldn't betray you, to have the same as what you have. Thats the thing about greed no one talks about.

Because imagine gaining users by being hateful, and you go to twitter to spread that hate, and as I mentioned, twitter is less tolerable than Tumblr when it comes being hateful towards queer people.

And let's say the LGBTQIA+ community finds out that not only are you a het - or lying about being queer - and you've been a bully and harassed queer people, because let's not forget, bisexual people despite their partners are queer as well - and more importantly, you're fetishizing a potential queer couple, AND then on top of that you stood by, laughed, and encouraged others to misgender someone, just because you're too much of a child to grow up, then I guess be prepared for all of the hate you've been given, to come back tenfold to you.

The hate you spread and give, has consequences.

And if you think that fighting tkkrs with the same shit they spew will make jikook more valid then I have some news for you.

what you're doing, is you're highlight more hate towards Jimin - because in a space that already doesn't give him the respect he deserves - you go and harass people, and dox them in the name of Jimin or Jungkook, what you're doing is just creating a whole new cycle of tkkrs.

You're becoming what you so call "hate" and you're making it even harder for people to love and accept Jikook for who they are, as individuals and as potential couple.

I just think its funny that so many people are complaining about how toxic this space has become, when if you all take a step back, you'll see the moment it became like this, and you'll see who spoke up and who didn't, and those that chose to "take the high road" or stay "neutral" are the ones to blame for what has transpired.

That's what I meant when I said "I'm washing my hands clean off this community"

I don't want to interact with "people" who pretend to be here for jikook/bts, but really just want more followers and to become big accounts. I don't want to be friends with people who live for the gossip and forget that queer people are bigger than you needing to escape from the troubles - you, heterosexual people - experience.

whatever happens next, thats on the jkkr community.

You give a stupid person a platform and you end up with the Donald trumps of the world, because essentially, that's what these people are. stupid, narrow-minded, hateful parasites.

4. I want to leave everyone with a post I wrote a year ago about Jimin, and how much I admire him and respect him. A lot of people say they love him, and that we should be good people just because he says it, but rarely do they look deeper to see why he is the way he is, why he chooses kindness, and why he expects kindness from us as well.

I love Jimin, because he's not just an idea to me, he's someone I look up to, and his morals align with my morals.

JIMIN'S PROWESS: EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

Post was originally made in June 2022, updates have been made since then Disclaimer: These are entirely my opinions; it is not a psychoanal

and thats how you battle hate, not with the same feeling, not with spewing idiotic words, you fight hate by protecting queer people, you fight hate by supporting artists and you fight hate by creating less harm in this hateful world.

this will most likely fall on deaf ears, but I hope that the sensible people out there read this and see this for what it is.

I ask, as a queer person, who constantly has to fight for and protect my fellow queer people, that if your definition as an ally - especially if you're straight - is to spread hate in the name of a queer people/couple then you might as well say you hate us, and you're homophobic, because what you're doing is putting our safety in jeopardy.

Similar to what happened with Fong Hui Tung, and Lua Kai Hei - What you're doing is magnifying and heightening Jimin and Jungkook's security and putting them in harms way.

And if something happens to Jimin and/or Jungkook because of some petty internet drama, of "jkkrs are better than tkkrs" then I hope you get hunted down and made to pay for ever playing with queer lives, I hope you live long enough that you know that it was because of you that something happened to Jimin, I hope that you are ostracized, because you are inadvertently causing harm to someone.

And if anything happens to Jungkook because of you all, then I fear for not only you but for what Jimin will unleash on everyone. You think that man is going to silently stand aside if harm comes to Jungkook in the name of shippers and Jikookers?. Jimin will go completely silent, he won't have the same warmth towards us, you will never get anything from him, everything with him and what he shares with us will cease to exist. You fuck around with Jungkook and you put him in harms way, then the Jimin you all know, will never come back again, and that's on me seeing the future.

If any harm ever comes to Jimin, I hope you know that it's on this community, for staying silent, for standing aside, watching this happen and not doing anything about it, and for knowing that this is something you all created.

not me tho, I tried to warn you all.

"Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results" - jkkrs are becoming the new tkkrs

and I said that shit last year when I got misgendered, and guess what, every single thing I said came true.
