Whoopiewoop

It was Layover, in both cases.

Remember that you can always download the app on your MacBook as well. I have it on both my phone and laptop and they are synced so i can see the same thing on both devices. I'm so glad that I don't have to wake up at f*ck o'clock for the concert to be honest. 8pm is 11am for me so I'm thrilled. And I will be able to watch it on TV without a problem while doing a video call with my sister at the same time. I'm getting better health wise, but panicking with the job hunt. It's not looking good at all Still holding on hope that I win the radio competition on Friday so that I can breathe and start planning my journey back home with the buns after July lol

Since we both have a lot of time on our hands (at least I do), I'm happy to do a video call and help you out with it if you want. Will be a lot easier to talk you through the steps I think while you tell me what you can see. I have a MacBook and iPhone as well so that's going to be easy It's just that the conversation here feels very static at times here and on signal it flows better because it's a more immediate back and forth.

Anything's possible. Dubai might have a special new facility, and they gave BigHit a good deal as a way of promoting it. Maybe they have an idea, and carrying it out in Korea might not be very viable for one reason or another. Or it might just be a photoshoot unrelated to Arirang.

Apparently they're going to Dubai for a shoot according to JK (based on translations from X). Maybe for the MV?

Our boys are off for work! Looks like they're freezing lol The way I started crying when JK and Tae started playing with the camera from Dispatch.

Things have been quiet since the ticketing. The real tea so far was the chaos Mex ARMYs had to live with because of the scalpers but no one is properly reporting on it and instead the media choses to focus on the fact that their president asked for more dates instead of addressing the real problem. Ridiculous. And then you have your usual bunch of uneducated, distasteful people making fun of ARMY. Some people say to have been able to get tickets for Goyang even after one week. They have been queueing all this time. Clearly cancellations are coming through It's like they're pre-school kids 💜

The best way is the Korean way. Face ID at the venue. If the registration doesn't match to your face ID, then you're out. It's limiting, yes, because they allow only one ticket per person but this eliminates the reseller completely, and fans can still resell their own tickets at face value if needed to another person and they will go through the same face ID checks. And a raffle would still allow scalpers to take part unless there is another identity check being done afterwards. I don't know how Japans works.

If you prefer to use your laptop/PC, there is a version for it as well. I Assume you have Windows? https://signal.org/download/windows/ No pressure though, we can stay here for you I hope you get your angel too and manage to get a ticket. Have you all seen the news about Eun-woo and his alleged tax evasion investigation? U$D140 mill is crazy.... and apparently his entire family is in it.

I'm here. We have just been more active on the Signal chat that we created in the past few days but we're staying here because we know it's easier for you to handle the Planet than phone apps. You don't really need to feel for me. I did resign myself to not being able to go because of everything, and I had (kind of) come to terms with it but there was an angel who gifted me a London ticket this morning so I've been on cloud nine all day.

I'm confused.. you already said hi in it, no? Just use it as a normal texting app like whatsapp or instagram

Yoongi's live gave me life today. It was so lovely to see his calm self after such a long time. That cat clearly loves him, the way it kept calling out to him for attention. And Namjoon was also live a moment ago. He wanted to show so much excitement but he forced himself to remain subdued, it was a bit funny. Usual comments in the chat that annoyed him but glad he's telling them off.

People who consider it bad taste have a) never had to face a difficult situation themselves where they're left between a rock and a hard place and therefore lack complete empathy or b) have faced a difficult moment and they had no one to turn to to ask for help for xyz reason so they're unfortunately, bitter and hate it when other people get the help that they needed in the past. Eitherway, they should be ignored. During this time, I have come to learn that people who know you, are more than willing to help if they can if you're honest about how bad things are. People who I've worked with over 7 years ago while at Booking.com have chipped in and I might have had 5 non-work related conversations with them in total. And I will also be forever grateful to them, including the people in here who have helped me out 💜 I'd say create a Go Fund me, Barbara. Ask people to share it on their socials and get the ball rolling. Especially your son who must have an interesting network in his line of work. You have the advantage of the US being massive. I've seen other campaigns based in there, and could see how much easier it actually is for people in need to get donations there. The only thing it takes is to get the ball rolling with a few $5 donations and the rest will come as long as you keep sharing. Hell, I have seen people with TSW there getting their $5k and more to go to Thailand for CAP treatment. That's easier said than done. Sometimes they want to offer but their own situation doesn't allow it. My dad has offered to help, and he has sent me some money but I can't leech off of him anymore than this because I know how difficult it is to just gather £50 for him being in Argentina. Of course, most of Barbara's family is in the US (I assume), but if the relationship is not there or their financial situation isn't good for them either, then there is no point in speaking up and it ends up being more of a guilty feeling for her than relief of finally getting some breathing room. Mine is still ongoing. There have definitely been some up and downs. Not so much because of writer's block but more because of life kicking me in the ovaries, like now. I want to finish it. Now that I have all this time while I'm applying to jobs I need to give it a real go. It's always been kind of a dream to earn a living as a writer. Back in school I always used to get full scores when we had to write something for our Literature classes and I even made my professor cry once when I read the story out loud to the class. Proudest moment of my life 😂 Keep working on those stories of yours. For me, writing while I posted at the same time has helped me make it an actual responsibility. Especially with all the kudos and comments I would get. They hype one up and it makes you want to keep on writing for the 5 souls who leave comments lol

Happy Holidays ladies! I'm alone at home with my two buns, just enjoying a quiet morning/brunch. I made myself some crepes and splashed tonnes of Nutella on each of them. I'm probably gonna do some cleaning after to make myself useful while I can. And maybe even pick up writing again later and make use of the skills I developed while writing my own fanfic on AO3 - see if that could potential serve me as a minimal income. Being unemployed while having a chronic illness is not it, I tell ya Things I want to say: Taehyung needs to know that Weverse ads tend to be longer than his lives. Someone has to tell that boy.... JK in that tiny silky robe on AYS is doing my head in. Jimin too, but you know, JK is my boo and pretty much the only man I'd accidentally lose my clothes for. Thanks demisexuality! (does this belong in our private group chat? I think it does. Sorry!) I'm seeing a lot of people on X getting emails from Weverse from orders that were placed during Black Friday, informing them that it was cancelled due to being out of stock. I swear whoever works as the distribution centre for them is ridiculously incompetent. Have we gotten too used to the likes of Amazon and local post where you can get International shipments within days? Are the long waiting times something typical in Korea? Do they accept orders and THEN start fabricating the item in question? I just don't get it. Is only one person working there to cause such delays? I recently saw a tiktok of Reuters interviewing the CEO of Weverse. Let's just say the comments were anything but positive feedback (including mine). They talked about moderating comments during lives, AI translations and how the shop orders are handled. I'm amazed at how quickly Hybe Boy uploads stuff on youtube as soon as there are news about the guys. Obviously he does this full time, but like... how does he not have executive disfunction? I would need hours to talk myself into starting to record anything
