I was searching through my photos for something and found this. An example of one of my many terribly immature pictures I’ve taken over the years. A not-that-surprising number of them are from Chinatown. This is from 2016.

I don’t know who to share this with but I just realized that balsamic glaze is sweet soy sauce for white people and I’m kinda just sitting with that.

I actually reposted the lyric vid with corrections and some updates with the official translation, although I didn’t go with it completely. Old vid is still up but unlisted. But very briefly I had the most hits on YouTube for Choose! 😳 #ateez #atinyday #atinyday2025 youtu.be/gsmuwRJRefo

I made a simple lyric vid for Ateez’s song they released for atiny day, Choose. 😭 English translation not mine, entirely from Irene @/lovelifebeauty_ on twt 🙇🏻‍♀️ #ateez #ateezchoose #atinyday youtu.be/OPXH1oQsUXA

Okay so it took me 10 days apparently but I then read it in two days and uh. Well. Highly recommend and loved this one. HIGHKEY wangxian vibes and was delighted at how fae and Burial Mounds the magic was, I was prepared initially for more HP-like magic but this has CLEAR other influences. Delighted!

So for Hongjoong’s birthday, I went on a 6k adventure with Jjoongrami.. only to lose the Hongyo pc holder I was wearing in the last kilometer. 😭 pray i find it tomorrow when it’s light out. #GLOBAL6K #HONGJOONG6K #RUN_WITH_HONGJOONG_2025 #HONGJOONG #ATEEZ

My parasocial ass is doing a 6k in the park for my favorite squirrel captain.

Excuse my blue hair dye beshitted up nails but why did my mom get this and I didn’t 😭 who did you think took her to go early vote 😭😭😭 (the back has senior citizen programs on it though, I get it, I get it *grumble*)

I was prepared and still unprepared for how cutely flustered San was in this. I feel like it weirdly(?) suited him more than Hongjoong (who's my bias, mind). In the middle of them I'd put Bumjoong (and isn't that a visual..) youtu.be/LZbs1MRZ2H0...

Me too! I would like to contribute to the fall love.

Obsessed with his wife 🙂‍↕️ #ateezfanart #art #seongjoong

Nothin else for it

Zohran picked 「卓蘭」("excellent orchid") for his first name and「夸梅」("brilliant plum") for his middle name. The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.

Always reaching new heights never before dreamed. I just flopped forward and I’m pretty sure my boobs just farted.

After that, you're toast

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

The sub call for Indigenous writers is now open! strangehorizons.com/wordpress/no...

The thing about adhd brain and requesting books from the library as soon as I hear about it is that it’s been a few weeks and I have no idea where I heard of this book and don’t even know what it was about. But it’s about queer sorcerers?? Enemies to lovers by the sounds of it? Okay, thanks past me!

i can’t believe a good thing happened we should do this more often

Cheney died, the NYC mayoral race has the highest turnout since 1993, and I have friends with REALLY GOOD personal news that isn't mine to share, it's been a really good birthday. Hug your loved ones, give to a food bank, watch some gay shit. Love you.

IQiyi is having a 40% off their annual membership now.

Ateez finally performed in their IYF MV outfits and this backless situation by ice prince Yeosang is diabolical. His smile. You can see his birthmark. Insane. Yeodoongies stay strong.

I watched something that said that TSwift is so popular that everyone is either a casual listener or a full blown Swiftie, and I am reflecting on the fact that she got really big in like 2006 and I apparently was spending that time...playing World of Warcraft.

Japanese place I’m at for lunch is playing Evanescence and I’m daydreaming of emo Hongjoong doing a cover of Bring Me to Life. Sigh. My Ateez life.

Happy Halloween 🎃

Found yungi headband at Miniso.

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

Today’s been a lively day of waking up to Hongjoong posting his matz-matching Lego minifig to an explicitly queer song called “we fell in love in October” ‼️‼️‼️ and then giving geriatric maternal medicine, insurance, and personal finance advice in a kpop fixed/soft claims group chat. Adultiny life fr.

If #Mingi were a packer, not a rapper. #ateez

quick psa: if you use GDrive, go into Settings -> Manage Apps and make sure the Gemini AI horseshit is turned off. Just got a heads-up about it elsewhere, and sure enough, Gemini had been turned back on without my permission

I know most of you aren’t in NYC so I’ll tell you a bit of good civics news, given that I think a lot of you would vote for Mamdani if you could. I early voted today. ☑️ (oops I’m vain and made a typo with the last post so here goes again)

Happy Ateez day. Happy seven years to these eight boys, who mean more to me than I can express. Thank you for existing and giving so much of yourselves to us. I’m so glad I found you. #7_years_with_ATEEZ #ATEEZ #에이티즈

Officially registered for #Hongjoong's virtual 6k for his birthday. Second year in a row he's doing it, so it's the second year in a row I'm doing it! Let's hope I don't catch the flu again this time. global6kforwater.com

Okay one more (ish? Sorta kinda three) for tonight's listening to tiktoks. Never doing Hongjoong justice but I've done more art in the last three days than I have in the last year, which I'll call a win?

Okay, last one because whatever. Nothing like posting when shadows and eyes don't make any actual sense anymore. Also it's 4am. It's fine. #wooyoung #ateezfanart

I regret this angle so bad. I'm so sorry, Hongjoong. 😂

It's not exactly inktober, but I did do a draw. A whole art, kinda. A sketch anyway. Haven't opened procreate in years but uh my current adobe options are down. #matz #ateezfanart #hongjoong #seonghwa

I sketched a small Hongjoong. It's pretty dang rough but. Ah well, I haven't drawn anything in ages.

it seems there's no non-weird time to do this in 2025 but the posts must go on, so: i have new book, RECIPE FOR TROUBLE, coming out next month! it's available now on netgalley and for preorder! it's full of laughs and queer joy! but, FAIR WARNING, it may make you hungry 🤤 geni.us/1204-al-aut-am

that big domino meme with the smallest domino labeled “you drew the wrong voltron characters smooching” and the largest domino labeled “censorship is good if the art makes me uncomfy”

OH!!! And because you can now search collections by tagged fandom *and* challenge type, you can now find things like All MDZS prompt memes: archiveofourown.org/collections?...

THREAD!!!

Why are these the two actual genders for Mingi though

Somebody on Twitter mentioned “yunsan Wednesday” and I would like to petition it to be yunsanday on Sunday or yunsanturday.

I am normally so even keel in temperament, I haven't had a bout of proper depression for possibly 15 years+. But the last few days have been pretty shit, and I don't understand why. It's like I've forgotten to take meds. (I'm not on depression/mood meds and have been okay with my ADHD one.)

In Chinese winter paintings, umbrella bearers are more than figures braving snow, they are moving poems. Though umbrellas began as tools of shelter, they became symbols of quiet resilience and fleeting beauty. 1/2 #art
