I know there are idols everyone would kill for, but who are some 4th gens that scream "x company" to you? I've got:

SM: She may be everyone's #1 pick, but Wonyoung screams SM.

YG: Ryujin's got the badass rapper vibe down pat. NMIXX Kyujin also gives me YG vibes.

HYBE: Mark Lee's a rapper with that "nice guy but still cool" aura. HYBE would be all over him.

JYPE: Kazuha seems like she was built in a JYP dream factory.

This post is inspired by my recent conversion into full Kim Chaewon-standom. I knew of her during Izone, and she seemed cool, but more attention in LSF has really put her to that next, NEXT level. Girl is so dope.

Who else do you think could be a monster center or face of a group if given the opportunity? They could be from a smaller group or be a less popular member of a big group.

They've gotta relax with Nancy. She's got too much going for her. She makes the plans, leads the team, kicks the ass, gets all the dudes -- they've gotta give the girl a flaw or two.

Plus she's such a Chad she makes other characters suck. Jonathan had some cool layers in S1 but then largely became "Nancy's boyfriend" for Season's 2 & 3. He was sidelined in S4 but at least he expanded some. Got a great Will scene and made his first real friend.

Steve got away from Nancy, developed new friendships, became the best, but then got sucked back into her orbit and now kinda stinks again. Even Robin went from cool and witty in S3 to a bumbling mess under Nancy's reign.

Nancy Wheeler is the

gets back together with Nancy.

I love Steve. I love Nancy. But that was a bad relationship, and I know Barb guilt played a huge role, but Nancy treated him like crap. She got drunk, said some terrible stuff, they kinda "broke up," and then she immediately started having sex with her friend Steve was jealous of.

Best case scenario for me is them all, Jonathan included, going solo and doing something new. Worst case is Steve sacrificing himself for Nancy -- I can't deal with that shit.

Looks like they've ended most of their pods and haven't released anything since December. Checked the socials and no real updates.

I know Eric's on tour and it's got to be tough getting the artists together now that restrictions aren't as tight. Just curious to see if this is a pause or what they're up to with the shows -- love the channel!

So I have two problems. The main hot water line to my sink is stuck partially open and the water inlet valve to my dishwasher is busted. So basically I have an inlet valve that won’t stop leaking.

I’m having a plumber stop by tomorrow to check out the hot water lines but in the meantime the inlet valve keeps leaking a bit of water at the end of the dishwasher line.

Would I be okay putting a plug on the end of the dishwasher line or would that cause back up problems? Thanks for any help!

Our dog is getting older so we got her pet insurance over a year or so ago. She was peeing/drinking a ton recently so we took her to the vet and they said she had developed diabetes and it was out of control. No signs or symptoms prior to that week. Had her treated for the ketoacidosis.

She's been to the vet within the last year with no symptoms and she's got bloodwork from 2020 with no signs of diabetes.

Vet bills are pretty steep. Have Nationwide Pet, does anyone know if they would file it under pre-existing?

If you look at any of the Korean charts they're usually filled with Trot and ballad singles; I'm surprised one of the bigger agencies hasn't tapped into that market. Especially with a younger/good looking singer to try and kind of blend the demos.

Honestly surprised HYBE hasn't made a move on a sublabel solely for those styles of music.

It sucks that Blackpink is probably skipping the award show circuit again, but I really doubt there’s any plot or beef or whatever against the girls. They’re the second biggest group in the industry, stations want them there.

BP aren’t going to shows because they won’t win any Daesangs. They’ve had a crazy, gigantic year, but unfortunately, BTS is BTS. BTS will sweep again and BP will be left with BGG and a few smaller ones. And after the year the girls have had, that’s not good enough. They’ve got the badass, untouchable image, and standing to applaud as BTS wins everything messes with that. It’s the same reason Exo stopped attending shows in 2018ish — they stopped winning Daesangs.

And

Haven't seen this mentioned too much, but holy shit, Haven was nuts. I know this game is supposed to be more gritty and "realistic," but this big Uncharted-style addition fit in so well.

I've been seeing this weird dynamic where a lot people feel they need to tear down Part 1 -- specifically Joel's character -- in order to support Part 2. All of a sudden Part 1 has become an exclusive, simple, unemotional story and Joel was completely in the wrong.

Aren't we all here because we loved 1 and the characters?

I get that some of the feeling is trying to counteract the reaction to Abby, but that's what makes it even more confusing. Abby's storyline is almost beat-for-beat, Joel's storyline in Part 1 -- they're the same characters.

YG does some dumb shit in regards to their artists, BP definitely included -- but I really think there's some method to the madness with this giant gap between albums. While other groups give their fans a steady stream of content, BP has been growing their fanbase without new music and their hype/anticipation is sky-high.

Sourcandy wasn't great and is still crushing, people are going crazy about the new teaser posters. If this comeback on the 26th is even "pretty good" I think it'll do monster numbers and then the album could break records.

Plus with BTS/Twice having so/so years, this could definitely be the year of Blackpink cleaning up at the awards circuit.

I'm curious to see what an AEW Championship will do for Mox's run in New Japan. I can't imagine TK and company being cool with Moxley losing on the NJ undercard while holding the belt.

Just want to know when to start avoiding Reddit/social media for spoilers.

So I know we were going pretty hard into "live long enough to become the villain" territory with Darrow in IG. In a vague, non-spoiler-ly answer, could anyone say whether this book goes further into Darrow being a bad guy?
