Old people beside me are talking about marine le pen. I prefer to preserve my peace

Like there are other floors, everyone takes one for themselves and we're good 😭

And they're fighting tonight again 😭

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · 15d

So the stray cats are now fighting in our balcony, idk what to do

The stray cats in our apt complex are fighting so loud I hear neighbors who seem to have woken up because of then 😭😭

To make it appealing to people who are used to a more "normal" format, but then maybe they're saving us from lost time

Nothing that has neevr been said before but it's my first time seeing it so.. I'm a little amazed at the summaries of books that are mostly targetting booktok. Their structure is like a list of tropes, and I don't get why also adding emojis is fine?
I feel like they could find a middle ground

Tate mcrae's choreo do look like sport exercises, I thought ppl were overexaggerating

I'm *heavily* anemic, apart from the supplements I don't take correctly I haven't made changes, so how is it that my nails are strengthening?

Soup season has begun and while yesterday's was meh, today I corrected it with some carrots I roasted(?) on the pan before adding water and now all is well in the soup world again

I miss my nepehew and how he'd put his head to my heart when I was putting him to sleep

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · Sep 16

By the way, thank God he got stubborn on some things, like insisting on an album with intemporal songs.

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · Sep 16

A hell of a first solo album, Haechan and the team behind Taste need to be given their flowers and I'll be very mad if not (KMA, I'm looking at you /lh). They can be proud of themselves and I hope he'll continue in this amazing trajectory and that we'll be able to be even more satisfied next

Somewhere else.

The earned confidence (he said "don't play with me" and he's right about it!), and I love how it gets announced by the interlude which is also pristine 🤌)
3. Roll With Me (joyful and soothing in a two step kind of way, I just envision a sunny day full of love, would've made an amazing album ender

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · Sep 16

The rest of the album: apart from Adrenaline and Wyn that give me Chris Brown, I listen to and love all of the tracks.
I think my top three is
1. Love Beyond (the snares, the seductive tone, Adrian McKinnon who's become scarce in the industry these days)
2. Talented (the groove thanks to the bass,

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · Sep 16

Haechan is giving is very fitting, but I also think moments of passion here and there could've elevated it.

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · Sep 16

Crzy is definitely not the highlight of the album, but the more I listen the more I like it. It makes sense that they chose a pop rnb track to have more chances of attracting the wider kpop community. All that said, I still would've liked more dynamism.
Concerning the perf, the nonchalant suaveness

The work and all the new things to do.

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · Sep 16

Made him sing in different ways than he's been used to as a singer in an idol group and the singing conventions that goes with it to truly embrace the genres explored. And btw, I really recommend the behind, it was amazing to see him communicate with Haechan because Haechan looks so stimulated by

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · Sep 16

Quality. It's been hand crafted by producers who know rnb/soul etc., understand the components that make a track authentic in these genres. It's not diluted as I find myself complaining about often in the kpop industry
I watched the recording behind and Deez made Haechan get out of his comfort zone

Tin @tininthehat.bsky.social · Sep 16

Let me tell you that he more than delivered

Haechan, haechan, the level of quality I expect out of your album...

I'm not on here much anymore but all of a sudden I remembered that I didn't gush about haechan's album on this account
