Bpp, I wanted to add to your ask about if K-pop as a genre will ever be taken seriously. I wanted to add to your point about fandom behavior contributing to it not being taken seriously. I notice that k-pop fans are the first to disparage the genre itself outside k-pop spaces and that a lot of them don’t take it seriously (see reply to a comment here: https://reddit.com/r/kpoprants/comments/xlj0rj/_/ipjuxm7/?context=1) If the fans themselves limit the genre to just ‘mindless bops’, then why should outsiders think differently? And that particular comment just makes me think that a lot of fans don’t think of their idols very kindly or think their creative or capable of more at all. I’m not saying that these fans are bad for thinking that way, since they’re in the genre to consume the music they like, but I guess it does feel like a losing game for the genre. There are break out artists (THE break out artists) like BTS, but I feel sad if they remain that way. I guess I feel sad because there’s tons of talent and creativity in the genre and I don’t want them to be snuffed out because of its limitations. I do feel grateful that BTS, as my ults of ults, are in the position they are now that they aren’t hindered by anything to do the music they want to do, but reqding stories like CL’s breaks my heart a little. Let artists do their art!!!

Hi Anon,

Your link. And my post which you referenced, linked here.

I responded to an ask just now and basically described why some fans view k-pop disparagingly (linked here).

Let me say again that a lot of what passes for music in this genre is junk. And I'm not trying to seem harsh. It's the musical equivalent of putting lipstick on a pig and dressing it up in a harness and a tutu, and then stringing it up to curtsey at every fourth count. (For the people who need to hear this, please note this is a joke. Don't report me to PETA). But what I mean to say is a lot of music here is just kinda bad, and that's not exclusive to k-pop, but k-pop is the only industry with a team-supporter structure which compels a lot of people to 'buy-in' completely. So what tends to happen is that though the songs aren't that good, there are other things that attract people: 'Visuals' aka really handsome or beautiful members, lots fancy/'hype'/cool props and splashy MVs, shipping and ships, overly complicated choreos etc, that make other people stan these groups instead. And they themselves know it lol. So when out in public and asked to talk about a musician they're into, if they're aware they're primarily into the group/musician/artist for reasons besides their music, it becomes very difficult to say so in a space that values authentic artists without looking like a bimbo.

Just as I said in my first post on it, so long as these tropes continue to be dominant in the genre, it will always have this problem.

But (again, as I said in my original post), k-pop is already being taken more seriously than before. BTS have shown the value in giving idols creative liberty, in prioritizing the quality of music, and in authentically connecting with their fans. The sheer monetary rewards BTS have shown is possible, is the biggest incentive the genre has had in decades to be taken seriously as a force to be reckoned with (for outsiders), and to put out actually good music (for insiders). I've said before k-pop stans are a bit... slow. It'll take time for their mentalities to change, but the industry already appears to be moving in the right direction.

Current Witchy Goals

hello!

ive decided that in order to stick to my goals for the future, i will publicize them! by publicizing my goals, i hope that everyone who decides to follow me on my adventures will hold me to them. without further ado, my goals!!

Finish my tarot deck. Ive been attempting to make a large tarot deck for almost two years now and recently the cards i had finished got ruined. i am determined to actively work with my deck and finish all of the illustrations ASAP. its going to be a pop culture based deck, with a fuck load of cards. more than double the standard. the deck is based in pop culture, with the major arcana being vocaloid/song based and the minir arcana being based on different anime. im still looking for anime to add so if you guys reading this would like to see any anime illustrated into a deck, lmk?

Incorporate witchcraft into my daily life. I should have accomplished by now, and im ashamed to say i have not. I have my reasons, but ultimately, i still want to achieve this. even if its just carrying around a crystal with me everywhere or blessing my drinks before i drink them, thats still just as good as doing a full blown ritual. I say that because in the end, i do rituals and spellwork to make myself happier and to improve myself. If smaller tasks can give me the same feeling of happiness and accomplishment, i should do it.

Let go. arguably the most important of these three goals, letting go. ive held on to so many things my whole life; my mental illness, my abuse, my history with attempting, everything. Ive held onto the expectations others have of me, the disappointment they felt when i fell over and over again, ive kept it all with me. i think its time that i relieve myself of that pressure and move on mwith my life. its time that i stop caring so much about what others think and focus on what i think. my opinion of myself is the most important opinion i could ever have. i want that opinion to be more kind. more forgiving. more me. i want to be happy. i want to feel better. i feel that the way to do that is to allow myself to be me and just. let go.

thank you for sticking by me through this post and reading through it, if you did. i appreciate the time spent on me. this post got kinda heavy even though thats not what i intended, so to make up for it. here have uwu.

i have commissions open to help with my family situation for spellwork, an illustrated tarot card, a drawing, etc. if you would like to see any examples please lmk :) they are PWYW, meaning you can pay whatever you think feels right. again, thank you all for your time and im sorry for the lil self promo. i appreciate yall.

#tw #tw: abuse #tw: suicide #seriously dont click reqd more if these subjects are sensitive for you #witch #witchblr #witchcraft #pop culture witchcraft #book of shadows #art #commissions #goals #wicca #im not wiccan but i feel like wiccans would appreciate this #why do i feel the need to apologize #grimoire #personal #ken talks

Gjallarhorn

“If there is beauty in destruction, why not also in its delivery?” --Feisel Crux

Type: Rocket Launcher

Slot: Kinetic | Energy | Heavy

Element: Arc | Solar | Void

Perk: Wolfpack Rounds - Rounds fired from this weapon split into tracking cluster missiles upon detonation.

Trait: Pack Hunter - Gain increased handling and reload speed when standing near allies. Firing this weapon also grants Wolfpack Rounds to nearby allies wielding non-Exotic Rocket Launchers.

Masterworked Trait: More Wolves - Increases magazine size. Final blows with Wolfpack Rounds spawn a faster, more powerful missile at the target's location.

Ornaments: GJNKR, Hraesveglur, Gjallarfoam

Origin & Description:

Give me a G!

Give me a J!

Give me a YELLHORN!

What's that spell?

PARTY TIME.

Talk to any D1 vet long enough and the name Gjallarhorn (pronounced like "gallon") - or "Gjally," or "G-horn" - will come up, often with a fond sigh. Gjallarhorn is one of the most cherished weapons in the Destiny franchise and Bungie announced its return in their 30th anniversary celebration with due pomp and circumstance. And who can blame the Destiny community for falling in love with a rocket launcher whose explosions are filled with smaller, angrier explosions? It doesn't hurt that Gjallarhorn was built to be an exquisite object. Its elegant chassis of ivory, gold, and polished wood gleams with sculpted ornamentation of wolves and wings. From the braided leather foregrip to the delicate reliefs of leaves and vines, no detail of Gjallarhorn is too small to be made beautiful. When fired its Wolfpack rounds explode on impact into a symphony of swarming cluster missiles that lift an entire arena's worth of enemies into the air with the sheer force of their detonation. There's a reason its Rise of Iron acquisition quest was named Beauty in Destruction.

Both in- and out-of-game designers intended Gjallarhorn to be a statement piece, a trophy, a weapon that marked out its bearer as a warrior of skill and achievement. Weapon designer Mark Van Haitsma, maker of so many fine Destiny exotics that I had to add extra words in here, famously added one sculpted wolf per day he worked on the Gjallarhorn; as a result it possesses the highest WPG - that's "wolves per gun"* - of any Destiny weapon. Art lead Tom Doyle described G-horn as "Hulk Hogan's belt in weaponized form," and Mark drew inspiration from the parade armor of knights and gladiators. In-universe Gjallarhorn was forged by Feizel Crux of the Crux/Lomar foundry, makers of fine rocket launchers. Crux used the armor of Guardians fallen at the Battle of Twilight Gap to build a weapon meant to be wielded by the survivors of said battle, a functional memorial to those who were lost. Its very existence celebrates the City's victory.

* Sixteen!

Gjallarhorn's long and storied history - which may rightly be termed "epic" as its namesake, the horn Heimdall will sound to call the gods to Ragnarok, appears in the Norse Edda - begins before the launch of Destiny itself. It was featured in August 2013 in one of Bungie's pre-game hype series of "Destiny Drawing Board" posts previewing game weapons that spoke to Destiny's worldbuilding and aesthetic, and a Titan wielded one in the game's live-action trailer. The weapon itself then launched with Destiny 1, but most players could be forgiven for thinking otherwise, because it was near-impossible to come by for most of Year 1. The very low drop rate of exotics combined with a long string of bad luck that had Xûr stock it the second week after launch and then NEVER AGAIN until just before Year 2 kept it out of most Guardians' vaults. When the Nine finally coughed up the goods, anyone interested in high-level content swarmed to buy it since it had by then become de facto necessary for raiding. New players were effectively locked out of endgame activities till they could get one. LFG raids would include the line "Ghorn reqd" and kick players who didn't bring it for boss damage phases, and it dominated the DPS meta much as Whisper did in 2018. Many raid encounters simply weren't interesting anymore - stack 6 Gjallarhorns and nothing could stand against you.

So when Bungie announced that Gjallarhorn was finally returning in D2 as part of the 30th Anniversary event in 2021, many vets turned to wondering what tuning they must have done to keep G-horn from gating off raids to new players. Since Gjallarhorn was specifically part of the 30th Anniversary pack, a paid DLC, the situation could be even worse this time - new players would have to shell out for this specific piece of content. We needn't have worried. Bungie dodged the problem in an elegant way: D2 Gjallarhorn retains the famous Wolfpack Rounds but adds the brilliant trait Pack Hunter*, which turns the Gjallarhorn problem neatly on its head. When one player fires Gjallarhorn, Pack Hunter causes nearby allies carrying non-Exotic rocket launchers to also get Wolfpack Rounds. That one trait changes Gjallarhorn from a barrier to entry for high-level content into one of the best choices for teaching new Guardians to raid, since it's relatively easy for even a new player to acquire a solid Legendary-tier rocket launcher. One experienced Guardian firing a Gjallarhorn in the middle of a pack of new players lets everyone then fire off their own rocket launchers with the same high-damage cluster missiles. Instead of stacking three or six Gjallarhorns for damage it actually becomes more useful in combos, adding Wolfpack Rounds to rocket launchers with other useful perks like Vorpal Weapon or Chain Reaction.

* Whose icon is literally Three Wolf Moon.

Part of the reason Gjallarhorn isn't causing problems anymore might be because they Nerfed it straight out of the box: they're building a Nerf Gjallarhorn. No, seriously. It's amazing. The Nerf blaster is a full-scale G-horn replica more than four feet long, with all the detailing of the original recast in molded plastic, and somehow it has Wolfpack Rounds. Nerf actually developed a new kind of Nerf ammo, the Mega shell, just for their version of Gjallarhorn; you fire the shell and the shell then fires three more darts. Yeah. There was actual innovation put into this piece. It even reloads the same way as the in-game weapon. It's stunning and hilarious and I can't wait to spend way too much money on it.

For your in-game dress-up needs, since Gjally returned as part of Bungie's 30th Anniversary celebration, it came with the ornament GJNKR to make it look like OG Halo's SPNKR rocket launcher. Xûr also brought along the ornament Hraesveglur which changes the wolves to eagles and redoes the detailing appropriately, adding eagle talons grasping the front of the barrel and curling winds replacing leaves and vines. It's almost an aeronautical look, resembling early bare-metal aircraft like the famous DC-3 in both color and aesthetic.

The masterwork trait More Wolves adds, well, more metaphorical wolves (because Three Wolf Moon can only be improved by More Wolves) by putting two rounds in the tube (two rounds!!) and oh yeah even more explosions because now the explosions created by the first explosion can also generate their own, third, explosion. Explosions filled with explosions filled with explosions! The Destiny playerbase tends to get grouchy, especially when anything changes, and it's been asking for Gjallarhorn back pretty much since D2 launched. Now that I've played with it, I get it. It's a marvelous weapon. Some people say that when you dress well, you feel good; for a Guardian, when you bring a stylish weapon, you feel on top of the world. I worked overtime grinding vendor rank to get to the Hraesveglur ornament purely for the look. When you fire Gjallarhorn, you feel like you're making a statement, and anyone nearby had better listen up. And for once even the crotchety old players seem happy with this particular addition: Gjallarhorn's back, it's not causing problems in the meta, and it's just as big, shiny, and wolf-y as before.
