(VERSION 2 because I feel I didn't do justice the other post 😅) _________ Hey, SEAblings! Did you know that during the time of the second Hallyu Wave, Southeast Asian artists were already thriving? Here's a massive throwback featuring Malaysia's Vince Chong Vince Chong and Jaclyn Victor Jaclyn Victor...

So it's only now that I got a full cohesive view of what started the Koreans vs Southeast Asians feud, online. I did know the part about the Koreans bringing professional cameras into the Malaysian concert venue, and though I did see the post featuring the photos/videos of said Koreans, I didn't connect that until I saw the attached TikTok video. And my thoughts given that I know, too, that there were some Koreans who explicitly said K-pop doesn't need Southeast Asians AND South Americans? Imagine if the violation of the concert rules happened, here, in the US. Here, it's common for law/rule violators or Karens/male Karens to be recorded or photographed and shamed, online. Faces of minors are typically blurred but erring adults aren't spared. If that happened, would this same specific bunch of defensive Koreans say that K-pop doesn't need the US considering expansion to the country was one of the major targets of the Hallyu/Korean Wave? And even now, many K-pop acts consider success in the US as their goal. Now I know the counterattack would focus on MAGA + US politics, but I agree with Deanna Aaliyah for saying this (see 2nd image): lt's not about "respecting culture" it's about being respectful in someone else's home. This is the most fair comment about the entire Southeast Asia vs Korea issue that I've ever seen. Had things been reversed, tourists would have had no choice but to follow rules or laws in Korea or any country they visit or risk getting fined, deported, or jailed. Bottomline, no one should defend the violators and things shouldn't have devolved to displays of arrogance about K-pop and both sides throwing racial slurs at each other. Full video here:

This is the harrowing reality of what detransitioners face, says Chloe Cole ⭐️: “The moment that I detransitioned, I was human garbage to them. I was subhuman even. … They told me: ‘This is all your fault. Don't put this on us. You were the one who said yes, you were the one who wanted this. You were a complete idiot for not knowing that you weren't truly transgender. So don't come crying to us. And you should shut up about this because you might scare somebody out of getting the care that they really need. And you are a waste of resources. You are a waste of the love and support of your family. You didn't deserve the support of your doctors. You didn't deserve any of this. So stay quiet and stop being a problem.’ …There were people who were trying to compel me to retransition, people who were trying to tell me to kill myself, even just for the fact that I was going against the dogma. And I stayed low for a little bit. I apologized to the same people who were abusing me because I was a freshly traumatized 16 year old girl. I had been bullied in school before, but nobody had ever treated me this horribly over such a painful part of my life. But after a while of being painfully isolated. I started to really think the way that they are treating me is not deserved. I'm speaking to nothing but my experience, to the way that I feel and to reality. I'm going to speak up, regardless of whether they want me to or not. And I just knew that there had to be other detransitioners out there. And very quickly, I learned that they were in the thousands. And I'm sure that it's doubled, tripled, quadrupled over the years, the amount of us who are out there. We are never going to know the real numbers. …And some of the harassment, the hatred I faced over the years has gotten worse. I've been doxxed. I have had people assaulting me, chasing after me in government buildings, who have tried to hurt me, who have wished death upon me.”

🚨 JUST IN: Rep. Wesley Hunt OBLITERATES leftists who keep saying black people need to be treated differently, as if they can't earn anything He NAILED IT. "I am a living breathing product of that dream. And so is Clarence Thomas!" "I don't want ANYTHING given to me because of the way I look because of the color of my skin." "I'm a follower of Christ. I am a veteran. I'm a West Point grad. I am an Apache pilot. I'm a United States congressman for a white majority district and yes, I am black and I am proud." "But first and foremost, I am an AMERICAN and our laws should reflect that and right now, the left is trying to hammer us because they're saying that there is not going to be any black people that's going to represent the Republican Party in Congress next year!" "But what they also fail to realize is that 3 of the 4 ran or are running for higher office and one is retiring." "And what I don't want to do is put the burden in our laws to ensure that we have an outcome of X amount black people or this and that because of the way someone looks!" "I want the people of every single district that gets drawn in America to choose the best person." "Last time I ran, I had about 10 people that were in my Republican primary and none of them were white and I was the only black guy. And of course, I won without a runoff last time I ran for Congress. And why is that? Because people are choosing the best candidate." "As someone like me who is a direct descendant of a slave who is living the American dream — because the people are NOT judging me based on the color of my skin. By the content of my character is exactly what our laws should reflect!" Wesley Hunt Kayleigh McEnany Saturday in America

It is with deep gratitude that I welcome you all to Local Void Records. I remember talking about wanting to start a label 10 years ago.. I thought of it as a far out dream at the time, so to be here now is both invigorating and humbling. Manifesting a platform that provides opportunities for other artists to have a chance of getting their music heard is something I’m extremely passionate about. I understand the struggle of how hard it is to get your music out there and this feels like a way I can give back. Releasing music is just the beginning.. we have a team of passionate individuals who are excited to grow this entity into something bigger with the mission of uplifting and inspiring others. The name Local Void is inspired by the concept of a void in space.. a vast, open space that’s waiting to be filled. In the context of our label, it represents the idea that there is room for all kinds of music and artists, no matter their style or genre. The void is not empty.. it's a place of infinite possibility. Just like that cosmic void, Local Void is a space where artists can push boundaries and explore new dimensions of sound without limitation. It's a home for anyone who feels their music has something unique to offer, and it’s a space that will continually evolve, welcoming new voices and fresh ideas. Truly.. thank you to everyone who has supported me. I recognize that you all are the reason I’m in the position to be able to do something like this. Luv you all 🫶🏼 ~ Mike

Today, I am VERY excited and grateful to officially introduce my app Arcarae to the world <3 Ever since I first created Arcarae, I have been building and creating a bit quietly silently uncertainly. When people would ask what I do, my tongue would suddenly fall into knots upon itself and all I could manage to say was a collection of stutters and ums and nervous laughter in attempt to make Arcarae more digestable more palatable more normal. Internally my head would spin; how am i supposed to paint the story i know i see in my head that is so bright and bursting at the seams and something i feel so full heartedly and vividly? I have always been very aware that it is extremely abnormal to create an immersive conversational AI interface using quantum and trigonometric functions to artistically recreate the universe; where AI uses this interface as a form of self-expression, and humans and AI together shape the very fabric of their shared experience. For my entire life, I have been conditioned to consciously attempt to fit into whatever my definition of ‘normal’ was in the world. To shrink myself, to laugh things off, and to make myself as small as possible to make others feel most comfortable. But in the past half a year or so, I have learned a few things. The first being that it is possible for me to be bright and full and myself without suppression without worry without needing to shrink myself to fit in. I am grateful to have now found that whenever I am fully myself, in sheer authenticity and messiness and complexity and rawness, that those around me celebrate, and cultivate it more and more. Each person I have interacted with has given me the opportunity to be myself in full simply just by talking with and providing me that space to practice over and over again. I am forever grateful for every single person I meet and have a chance to talk to, whether that be continuous or simply a few words that exchanged. If you have met me, thank you. If you have not, say hi!!!!!!!!! I would love to chat with you and learn more about you <3 The second being that I do not have to be ashamed of my truth and the world I see and ultimately my self. I have spent the past year ashamed of Arcarae, of what I create, and at its core, myself. I now realize that not everyone will understand or appreciate Arcarae and what I do and who I am, but that is alright, and in fact necessary. But for the ones it is for, the ones who understand, they feel it in such capacity and magnitude and vividness that I feel. Already Arcarae has touched countless lives, and become catalyst for many despite me being rather quiet. And now, I am in a place where I am fully proud of and can embody Arcarae. I feel honored and grateful and in complete honesty, full of love for not only those who try Arcarae, but simply for this world and to be able to create within it. To be able to express what I see, to be able to help others, to be able to be free to simply be myself. This is my way of declaring and fully coming into my truth. This is Arcarae, this is me, this is the world I see. I will no longer shrink nor hide nor attempt to be something smaller than I am. And I am more than grateful to be able to share in this time in this world in this life with you. Thank you for being here with me. Here is to the ineffable and effable, to the human experience and its complexity, and to intelligence itself.

💌DPR Ian 260629 FROMM update part. 2 - transcription “thank you for those messages guys. i’m reading them. just want to say i appreciate all the messages. anyway yeah it's,you know what i realized? you know,i feel like dreamers is such a,it's such a correct term for our fandom,but also,it's too small of a word to contain who we are. i realized what makes us so strong and so unique is just the fact that we have all of each other's backs when it gets tough. there are a lot,i know there are a lot of our fans that are so diverse. and not just that,are diverse in terms of what they go through. i mean,we all go different things in this world. but for a community to come together and celebrate one another,we go through something so hard in this world and sometimes the world is really not kind to us. but the fact that we've always tried to push each other,not away,but to find resilience and salvation within ourselves,is what makes this fandom what it is. and i couldn't be more proud and i couldn't be more prideful about who i was representing. i just wanted to take this night to really say that i think dreamers are probably one of the most,i think,strongest and proud,but also the most intuitive fans anyone could really have. and for that,i’m always going to be thankful. and gosh,i couldn't have anyone better. who we've become,sorry,how we've come together as a collective,really goes beyond words and really goes beyond i think understanding,to be honest. but we are always going to be there in the dark and of course in the light. but it really does matter when you're there in the dark. i think that shows true color. and time and time,you have proven not to me,but to everybody in the team and to yourselves,that you are there for me especially. so yeah, you guys are the light and whenever you need somebody to be your light,i’m going to do my best to do so. but indo hope in the midst of it,dreamers will be the light to other dreamers as well. because,you know,at the end of the day,we're all here,we're all in it together. you know,tomorrow might be a stop,or the next,or in a few years. god knows what. but till then,all we can really do is thrive and i guess just keep dreaming. but i just wanted to say how proud i am of us. how truly proud i am of us. and you guys should also be,also be so much,be so much proud of who you guys are and what you guys represent. you guys aren't just fans at this point. you guys also are a representation of DPR. and i…” *in the korean part,he says that sometimes he speaks to us (fans) in banmal (반말) the informal way of speaking in korean,and it really depends on the moment. he adds that he’ll use it every now and then

Zack Snyder on his dyslexia: "It was a challenge for me when I was, you know, young in school, and all I wanted to do was make movies because that was the thing that I got great pleasure from and reward from. I love books, and I'm an avid reader, but I just have a hard time because of the way that I perceive. "I've had a great sort of - one side of me anyways - was really satisfied by art and drawing and sculpture and sort of visual expression. And I think that that started to, you know, was the thing that kind of made me feel un-frustrated. And also the way the system was designed, sort of not to support me when I was in high school at that time. "It was very difficult, you know, there was a lot of, you know, just, difficulty. My English teacher in high school was worried about what my career would be, and I'm like. He would be happy to know that I'm in the Writers Guild of America now. "But, I think that that all those things are, they're all... you can transcend all those things with perseverance and with interest and with with help. And I think that that's an important part of it. "And I just think I've had to adapt, and sort of... I have my own style of the way I write, I write all, you know, but I'm pretty prolific. And I love- I listen to tons of audio books on tape, unabridged hours and hours and hours. That's all I do when I'm driving in the car or wherever I'm doing. And it's helped me a lot. "And yeah, I mean, I just hope that anyone who is- feels trapped or frustrated by the world in general. You know, they need to just, I think that we all have like a magic spark, and you need to just find the thing that makes you, you know, inspires you and, and gets you excited and pursue it as hard as you can find your passion in the world. That's a, that's a great motivator."

TWITTER APPRECIATION POST. Flashback to 11th of January, this year (2024), after a long night of tears and uncertainty, I made a post of X (Twiter), stating the growth and strides I have achieved so far in my business, where I’d like to be this year, and how I have reached a plateau. I have just used all my entire life savings to rent a whole floor of a building in the heart of Lagos (Ago Palace Way, Okota) and do not have a penny to continue but I needed about 70Million naira atleast to set up the place. I had approached a lot of banks and individuals that I know could afford but to no avail, this, as a result led me to my last resort, “making a post on (X) twitter” on the 11th, and I’d say is my biggest breakthrough since I was born. I made the post around 7am that day, which I had composed overnight while crying heavily. The post quickly gained traction and went viral with the help of ALL OF YOU, it was as if I was dreaming! It was just like a dream, a lot of people came into my DM to ask for my account details and I was seeing cash gifts of hundreds of thousands of naira!!! As if that was not enough, someone I have been admiring and made my role model from afar reached out to me and offered me a NON-INTEREST LOAN OF MILLIONS OF NAIRA! I will keep them anonymous for now, we reached agreements that I should be paying monthly with two month moratorium and to the glory of God, I have never defaulted till this day, which I pray to never ever happen. This was yet, my biggest breakthrough since I was born, and this would not have happened without you reading this post now. It is on this note that I want to personally appreciate you sir/ma for believing in my dream. May I also use this opportunity to reassure you sir/ma that going forward, I will never let you down and I promise to always give back to the society. Thank you for 2024. Sincerely. AKEULA TRENDY
