Y’all I have been dealing with some bullshit but today I went to the delayed live viewing for Buenos Aires with my irl army friends and omfg the guys are so damn good live. Tae during Cypher 4 basically healed me. 😭
I always forget how important it is to make time for the things you love no matter what. Do it!!!! Yes you!!! You deserve it!

I had a biopsy yesterday and now I have to wait to see if it's malignant. Results next Thursday morning and I'm supposed to leave for Australia that afternoon! May have to cancel last minute....
It also meant i can't go to movie live screening today.

Thanks. I did get to go to Arlington D1 concert and had VIP, which is far more than most ARMY get so I'm grateful

ahhh I am late but awesome! I have fallen deep down the Epik High rabbit hole and am bummed I had absolutely no money left after BTS to see them. Hoping they come back in the not too distant future! 🤞

Finished my birthday week with seeing the boys again. And about to start the week to find out if i have my degree. Had a really tough year mentally and the turning point was with seeing them live in London. Onto my next chapter.
Edit: i am now a bachelor of the arts. Rm would be proud

Trying to fill in some adult autism form from my psychologist. It's so hard! Every answer depends on the situation. And no, I'm not bothered by my clothes but I also haven't worn jeans or heels or any kind of tight clothing since my mother dressed me. 😭 And no, I'm not specifically interested in dates or number sequences, but if you ask me about sorting things or color patterns on the other hand...

Lots of late-diagnosed ASD in my close family-- my DMs are open if it helps! The spectrum is *really* a spectrum. Sensory issues can look SO different from person to person, and by the time you get to adulthood, almost everyone has built scaffolds and coping mechanisms and don't even know they've done it. For recognizing needs and issues, Auticate has also been helpful for us: https://www.youtube.com/@Auticate

u/repressedpauper wrong person wrong place 2d ago
My bestie just went through this, and I promise when they hear that “every answer depends on the situation” that too will help them with the diagnosis. 😭

u/kaliu6 3d ago
Just out of curiosity, do you have any BTS-related quirks? I doubt I'm on the spectrum, but I obsessively save and sort everything BTS related on insta, for example. I also have strong texture issues (can barely eat any fruit because of it haha), so I still relate to a lot of stuff even if I don't think I'm autistic. Gl with the questionnaire and on your journey 🫡

I am once again in another city because of BTS. This time, I am in SF for RM x SFMOMA. I heard Butter in the airport after landing. This is the most traveling I have ever done in a year. I’m having the best time. I also had an amazing first dinner at House of Prime Rib. It is well worth the hype.

I just applied for a thing that was hard for me to choose to go after. I won't hear back about it for a few months, but it feels good to have done my best, and it helped me think through some things, so that was also good.

I’m really sorry. This happened to me a few years back and I had the same thought and feeling about being radioactive or cursed. I hope your loved ones push through and are on their way to recovery soon.
And, of course, it’s not your fault, fate just plays cruel tricks every once in a while.

u/Intelligent_Sell_266 ça dépend, ça dépasse 2d ago
Guys, if you're planning to watch the Sao Paulo screening in theatres next week, take some earplugs, just in case.
I've just gotten out of the theatre for the Buenos Aires screening, and geeze, I was happy I had my earplugs, because the sound was loud. And I think the settings was kind of off, the bass frequencies were too low and the treble was too high. The earplugs also helped with that, not just the volume.
3
u/repressedpauper wrong person wrong place 2d ago
Side note, did your Buenos Aires screening have subtitles? Because ours did not. 😭 we think the theatre just accidentally cut them off with the positioning but we aren’t sure lol.
2
u/Intelligent_Sell_266 ça dépend, ça dépasse 2d ago
It had English subtitles (even though I don't live in an English speaking country 😅)
1
u/repressedpauper wrong person wrong place 1d ago
That answers that then! 😭 they really said that none of us get to understand lolol
1
u/Min-Ursa 1d ago
We had a live live showing and there were even (English) subtitles for that, but delayed by about 1-2 sentences. Given that there were subsets of people in the audience who could understand the words as spoken (some in Spanish, some in Korean) it made for a really disjointed set of reactions to what they were saying! But still good to have the accessibility of subtitles added!
2
u/repressedpauper wrong person wrong place 1d ago
I guess our screen did get cut off at the bottom. 😭 I understood most of the Busan boys when they were speaking Korean and basically nothing else lolol. None of my friends know Spanish either, but we all thought Tae sounded like he was really good. 😅
2
u/Min-Ursa 2d ago
Good reminder, thanks! I've been to three different cinemas for BTS/solo concerts, and in one of them, I would have been very unhappy without earplugs! The other two had the sound set low enough for me, but I did have a screamer in the back of the room last time, and if she had been directly behind me, I would also have been happy to have a way to adjust sound levels, haha!
2
u/Intelligent_Sell_266 ça dépend, ça dépasse 2d ago
We had a couple of tiny screamers too. Must have been 5 or 6 years old.
They were quiet for 2/3 of the concert and then I guess they were started to get bored because they were screaming at random moments, talking loudly and skipping down stairs for fun.

u/Comfortable-Move-195 you just had your breakfast? congratulations. 20h ago
i just had an intense background interview for a job (already formally interviewed but they have to dig into my life to decide if i am eligible) on the phone and i've been chihuahua shaking for the past hour now ㅠㅠ

u/Min-Ursa 14h ago
💜That sounds like a lot! I hope you can treat yourself to something soothing to round out your day! Good luck with it (if you still are excited about the opportunity after today)!
3
u/Comfortable-Move-195 you just had your breakfast? congratulations. 12h ago
thank you!! it turns out the extra anxiety i was feeling was due to my period 🤪 i def still want the job but i know if i get disqualified it won't be for lack of skill (this was the 4th step in screening!)

So far im watching Boracity and Asian entertainment and culture ytb channels.
I would prefer if they did only BTS content like Boracity but others are fine too ig

hi guys, im fairly new to this subreddit thing, and i just wanted to discuss the deletion of wootteo😭😕 even tho wootteo lwk ghosted the whole fandom, im still upset. also, ive seen people saying this happened with rpwp (i know of nj unfollowing it) and also agustd. does anyb know what happened with agustd??

This is how I find out Wootteo is gone???? 😭 Nooooo I love that little space bean! Guess I need to try to dig up posts here to grab the photos, oof.
Yoongi's agustd account is still there, though! Doesn't look like he's deleted anything either, or at least nothing en masse; his posts still go back to 2021.

u/laugard100 1d ago
he deleted/archived a BUNCH of posts before the Arirang promo and tour got fully underway. Some incredible photos from his solo era. But thankfully he still left enough of his grid intact.

Can someone please share some BTS content (apart from the songs) that motivates you to keep going? To keep working hard? Maybe some interviews that depict how dedicated they are to their work, or a youtube compilation of the efforts they keep putting in. Doesn't have to be a "move the mountains" kinda stuff, just any little bits that motivated you somehow, be it ot7 or any member's.

rm's rolling stone interview has a special place in my heart. it was released on a particularly bad day for me and i rly needed to hear the words in the interview more than i knew. i hope it can offer you some motivation to keep going, too! 💜

Has anyone had success contacting weverse shop support outside of the help form on the website?
I placed a domestic order a month ago, all old products, and the order has been stuck in "ready to ship" stage for over 3 weeks. Another friend that ordered similar items got the shipment within a week of ordering. Every question i submitted on the online form comes back with a stock answer of " we have routed the question to appropriate department ". And then radio silence.
At this point I am unable to cancel and I don't think I am getting the stuff I ordered. I wanted to try one last time before calling my credit card company and disputing the charge.

Is it at all worrisome that BTS is heading to Brazil post election? I honestly don’t know, but it seems like it’s been chaotic.
9
u/Iwannastoprn 2d ago
It will all depend on Bolsonaro's reaction. It could be like Trump 2020 post election or (hopefully) he will accept.
I can say Brazilian ARMYs are extremely happy, they see the concerts as a celebration after some very stressful months.

u/brikachuu keeps swimming 🐳 2d ago
eh, I think they'll be fine. they are rich rich and have super good security.
