2020 Seasons Greetings remains my favorite Bangtan photoshoot. 🥺

BTS Jungkook, j-hope, & Jimin cuddling on a diagonal: JK leaning on Hobi's chest and Jimin standing behind Hobi with his arm around Hobi's neck. They are wearing clothing in black and white patterns. (2020 Seasons Greetings)

BTS Jungkook and Jimin cuddling on either side of Yoongi. Jungkook has his arm around Yoongi's shoulders, and Yoongi has his eyes closed, gently smiling. Jimin is on the right with his arms around Yoongi's waist just below frame. They are wearing button-up shirts and necklaces. Yoongi's t-shirt under his iridescent purple shirt is exactly his skin color so at first glance it looks like his chest is exposed. (2020 Seasons Greetings)

I've never written a fic but this is so wholesome I might have to. lol

ARMY doesn't cancel racists by yelling at them. We work in the shadows, we go to their bosses, we go to HYBE, we fight their shitty opinions with full sentences and facts. That's how we succeed, and how these blowhards will find out it's a bad idea to piss us off.

In case you haven't seen...it's not just you.

Headline: BTS ARMY Site b-cd.app Hit by Widespread SSL Outage
Text: On September 13, 2026, users of the fan-run b-cd.app platform reported an Error 525, a Cloudlflare SSL handshake failure preventing access across phones laptops, and cities from Singapore to Chicago. The site lets ARMY complete streaming tasks, track plays, earn digital photocards, play games like Heardle, and join events--all independent of BTS or HYBE. While some saw brief fixes, the outage disrupted logins and routines, with fans hoping for a quick resolution amid the platform's history of traffic strains.

I require this to be AI because the concept of this moment happening in real life is causing me to short-circuit.

a still shot of a live performance from the BTS Arirang tour showing Hoseok leaning back against Taehyung's chest with his eyes closed with an expression of ecstasy. Taehyung is looking over Hoseok's left shoulder with a big mischievous smile, his hand reached under Hoseok's jacket and holding his boob over Hoseok's white tank top. Hoseok's arm is draped over Taehyung's with hand placed on his own abs. It's more deeply erotic than it has any right to be.

I don’t know if Bangtan is in town yet or not, but I figured the Field Museum would be an unlikely spot to run into any members. So I rounded the corner and saw the entrance… 🤦‍♀️

I bought some BTS stickers on Amazon, and found these lost souls. 🥺 Please adopt a k-pop boy today.

Two stickers of unidentified K-pop idols, the left has black hair, a (probably fake) lip ring on his left, and a tattoo which is definitely not Jungkook’s peeking out from under his shirt. The one on the right has a mop of icy-blue hair and a thin face wearing a distressed white sweater. Could be Heuning Kai at a really weird angle but probably not. I know BTS are your ults, young men, but you can’t do it by running away. Be proud of your group(s), whoever they are, and work hard at your craft. Now go on back home *pats head.*

The "BTS MVA" Purple Carpet. We boycotted the MTV VMAs, so a group on ARMY twitter created its own awards ceremony for the same night w/ nominees, voting & endless edits of the tannies and other "celebrities" walking the purple carpet. I was laughing so hard. 2019 ARMY twt was the golden age.

Of their hundreds of awards, these are so satisfying:

In the left column, labeled Award Ceremony, "American" of American Music Awards is highlighted in yellow. In the column for "Category," "Artist of the Year" for 2021 and 2026 is highlighted.

Found the screen shots posted by b_cdapp on the bird: we've been found out oh no. They'll be shocked to know I actually AM listening to bcd playlists at work with my own ears. I'm not a bit tired of Arirang.

A screenshot from a Last FM support thread. Top post: "I agree with this. They shouldn't be taken seriously, nor should you waste time and energy on them, because they are a lost cause. The smartest thing we should all do is point the finger and laugh at them. I hope the team will start purging inflated plays and statistics to make their numbers genuine. It would be good to get this taken care of." Second post by user frikandel "Want to provide some additional background on how this issue became a thing and on 'why' all these BTS fans are on Last.fm, in case anyone is interested. (Although after posting this I notice someone who also posted this on March 11). I looked around on Twitter a bit, and it seems there's an app called 'BCD.' It's an app for BTS fans that basically gamifies streaming BTS across as many platforms as possible, and it used Last.fm to keep track of users' listening history. The app has 'daily missions' and 'group missions' where you'd have to scrobble a BTS track a certain number of times I found some screenshots of this:"

Even with clothes on Joon's thighs are undeniable.

Namjoon circa 2019ish is sitting on a stool wearing a white button-up shirt and light colored jeans that are form-fitting enough to hug his thighs perfectly.

A photo of BTS members after a concert in Osaka (2019). Jungkook is on Taehyung's lap and they are holding hands. Namjoon is winking and holding up a peace sign, wearing shorts that bare his thighs. Seokjin is looking straight at the camera like a mug shot with purple hair and wearing shorts that expose his knees like that isn't pretty much naked as far as Jin is concerned. Yoongi and Jimin are appropriately covered so that we don't completely lose our minds, and Hoseok delivering the final blow in baggy shorts that expose his KNEES, white shoes that look like muppets and a smirk like he knows what he's doing. They should be ARRESTED.

My amiversary seemed a good time to bring out this fan-made BTS Tarot deck. I’m not much of a woo-woo person, closer to an open-minded skeptic. But when I found out about this deck & it was the very LAST one, it seemed like fate. So here’s my first “reading,” for what it’s worth!

3 square tarot cards laid on a black table with the remaining deck face-down showing images of BT21 characters. The 3 cards are: “10 Wheel of Fortune” with a photo of the carousel from Spring Day; “20 Judgment” with a photo of Jin standing in the rain from the “Epiphany” MV; and “Happy Squirrel” with a photo of Hobi wearing a flower crown.
