Trying to get home and Wait for bus for 45mins. Bus magically doesn't come to that stop at that time (the company's app and another bus driver indicated that it did). Well, either way now it's too late and buses don't run at this time anymore (9:30pm) Nearest uber is in the city next-door 30mins away Call taxi company and get hung up because I was trying to find the road name Phone battery proceeds to run out Walk another 45mins to get to my friends cuz it's too dark to do the 1h30mins walk home That's what happens when u live in old-people's-ville. I'm tired

@Total Saikou growing tomatos is so satisfying. We have no idea how, but 3 tomato plants randomly start growing on my mom’s balcony. The plant smells amazing and it was a joy to care for it and then eat the fruit later. The only issue is they need a lot of space otherwise I’d have a plantation in my apartment lol I was so surprised at how big those money plants can get! I have a little one that I started growing from a leaf.

In the past three years plants have become a raging trend. Are you a plant hoarder or do you not really care for it? I grew up watching my grandma grow most of her food from her backyard so I learned a thing or two. Once I finally had my own space I started to try growing stuff, so this summer even though I live in an apartment I've been growing basil, chives, coriander, lavender, chamomile and sunflowers and I'm trying to grow some other flowers to attract bees. I'm not too much of a fan of simply ornamental leafy plants, but I would like to get a monstera at some point. I also have other houseplants like spider plants, pileas, hen-and-chick and aloe veras. I tried growing chilli plants but had 0 success. At the moment I'm battling a gnat infestation (they're like fruit flies )

ngl I danced to the whole song as hard as I could. Nothing wrong with a bit of fun music to get away from all the wristocutto emos around here

This is my guilty pleasure

Those visuals!! It sounds so good I wanna give the new album another chance.

💥she went there

I only like merch that I can put to use, so towels, tote bags and T-shirts if they have a cool design.

That's a long time to walk so do you have access to the countryside or do you tend to follow the same route everyday? Although I have access to miles of seaside walks and the countryside, I find myself picking a random street near where I live and following it until I get exhausted lately. I've discovered some interesting urban areas because of that even if it's just someone's nice garden (not in a creepy way lol)

Aw, he's harmless.

How long have you been doing that? Do you do it everyday? And I agree, listening to music, podcasts or audiobooks is a really good motivation for walking/jogging.

How and why do you keep active? (or why not?) Especially with gyms being closed and working from home, keeping active can be a bit of a challenge lately. Personally, I enjoy exercise. if I don't move, my joints and muscles give me hell so it's like I have no choice but to enjoy it 😅 I love going on long walks, hula hooping and doing yoga/pilates and I try to stretch often throughout my day. I hate cardio focused routines.

I wish to have the same confidence in my art as Karma does on his. https://www.rands112358.com/product-page/postcard-8 This is cute and tbh I wouldn't mind having this on my wall https://www.rands112358.com/product-page/postcard

Kanon Wakeshima circa 2009, great style for her music. It's a shame she changed directions so abruptly. I think the goth lolita scene still has potential (music wise). Mix the sound with some brand partnerships and you can make some decent dough from the die hard fanbase.

There seems to be a lot of promising songs and I love the concept and look for the PV. Looking forward to this.

I play xiv. Which server are you on? Have we talked about this? And also, welcome! Nice to see you here~

Let's be real that whatever X Japan (or Yoshiki) releases from here on out will never live up to any expectations. That sound stayed in the past.

They have the same color as coca cola I believe 😅 Good one, I've added a new option

I can't really stomach fizzy drinks, but every once in a while I'll treat myself to 7-up or a bottle of Ramune if I come across one. Sprite and Mountain Dew are wayyy to sweet imo, I haven't had any in over a decade.

Japanese vocal talent is not subpar, but there does seem to be a preference for artists who don't really have outstanding characteristics. For example, DAOKO's popularity when all she does is cry on the microphone, etc. (I still listen to her sometimes) Does technique matter within visual kei? I wouldn't think so. The focus is style and charisma in some cases. There are a lot of unmemorable or subpar vocalist that get carried by the band. For every other j-music movement/genre I'd say it's different, apart from idol groups. Anyone who can make noises gets accepted even if they can't sing to save their lives. The reason Kyo and Ruki get brought up is because Kyo, especially nowadays, does a lot of vocal acrobatics that others fail to replicate. Try his band sukekiyo. As for Ruki, he was one of the most memorable vk vocalist level-ups. There was one point in Gazette's career where everyone just went 'Yup, Ruki is spending good coin on singing lessons'. You can clearly divide gazette's discography as pre-vocal-coaching Ruki and post-vocal-coaching Ruki. Don't forget to check out DIMLIM for another memorable vocalist I would also recommend 9GOATS BLACK OUT.

That's pretty personal information, not sure how it would be on the Internet. Could be a rumour started by an angry ex, or an angry ex who knew this and spread it out of spite.

I'm team Shea, obviously. Latest episode was absolute garbage but the lip sync was fun. I think the main reason I keep watching is for Nina Bonina's rawview each week.

GACKT gives Karen vibes naturally. I just gave him a little push.

I will always be here for nun-kei. ALWAYS!!
