I finished school at 3.45pm, to catch a train from my local station at 4.40pm. An 18 minute delay in boarding, turning into a 36 minute in arriving into London, I have been through security and passport control at St Pancras, and I finally feel like I am on my way. #AndRelax ##ARIRANG #ParisD2

It's still too fucking warm to do anything involving an iron, but needs must. Pleating is complete, waist ties are made and attached to the waistband, one side of the waistband has been attached to the body of the skirt. Next, approx 1.5m of hand slipstitching on the i side of the waistband 😐
Photo scrambled up black and white Gingham fabric, on a wooden kitchen table with a sky blue cutting mat. It is just about possible to make out pleating and a wide reinforced waistband of a skirt, along with one narrower fabric tie.

I'm sorry. Knowing what the temperatures in the UK have been this week, all I can think is,"why are these (beautiful, beloved) bellends wearing wool and fleece beanies?"

Even though it is far too warm to be doing anything involving an iron, with deeply uncharacteristic preparedness, I have began making one part of my outfit for #ARIRANG in #Paris I might need more pins. [Hello btw.! Catching up with everyone's tour photos this afternoon has been 🥰]

Part of the fabric closest to the camera is pinned in pleats, while most is still flat to the table. A small pile of sewing pins and a pair of small scissors is visible on the far right of the frame.

I promise I haven't forgotten about this, if anyone was waiting; I was just trying the last week of term before I started it, and then I was ill last week. It will be done soon, but probably via an Instagram account/link.

Did Weverse just cut the transmission after it reached two and a half hours? My livestream disappeared part way through Into The Sun, with a message saying the event had ended.

I'm up, I'm up, I'm up.... Earliest I've been up all Easter hols, to be honest. I have tea (fresh in a cup, and in a flask for later consumption), I have biscuits (no time to cook breakfast), and I have both sound and vision on my mirrored TV. I'm sad the Seoul weather isn't being kind.

Also, with apologies if I'm rehashing points already made... Not only did the overlapping horizontal pleats, sashes and skirts, and hardware/studs, help the cohesion of the overall group look, they reminded me of the armor that Eastern nation armies wore in their middle eras.

Lissie @wisewombat.bsky.social · 21/03/2026
I working on finding patterns for #SewingArmy to recreate some of the looks they wore. I've a pretty good idea for Joon and Yoongi's shirts, and Jin, Tae, and Hobi's jackets, plus the backing dancers trousers, already. I'll do a breakdown thread once I have full details.

If, like me, you are feeling attacked by Kim Namjoon, please find some respite in some photos of some #Namjooning I did yesterday at the V & A's Marie-Antoinette exhibition N.B. I have NEVER seen queues or packed galleries at the museum like the ones I saw yesterday.

So. I think I have a ticket for D2 Paris. However, my brother had to do the actual ticketing for me because I was at school, and the process he described was not what I expected. Is there anyone else going to Paris with whom I can compare notes please? #Paranoid

If the tour info is being released on January 14th, do we have any guesses or precedent on when to expect ticketing to begin? January 14th is a Wednesday (so ~ Tuesday 13th 3pm GMT,for me). Is ticketing likely to begin that Friday, January 16th? #btshelp

If I were in charge of such things, I would insist that the opening date is a Saturday evening*, and is livestreamed both online and in cinemas. * Assuming the first show is in Korea (and that the majority of people are freer at weekends) they can catch ARMY on both sides of the time differences.

It's not morbidly pessimistic, so I'll take it, even if it's not yet clear what I'm supposed to be wlofish about.

Wandering around Covent Garden with a pal, circa 2007. Michael Palin (of Monty Python) exited a building as we walked past it, with someone we presume to be a journalist. He was talking about being recognised just as pal and I looked at each other like 😲 Both he and journalist laughed at us.

I have a trip to Rome, in February*, already paid for, that I'm hoping I don't have to cancel because BH sometimes struggles to understand the meaning of forward planning for fans. They've been planning - probably - for years. Army should get three months AT MINIMUM. * likely too early but 🤷‍♀️

November's ##MonthlyMusicMoment was Turin Brakes at Birmingham Institute. A band I've sort of, maybe, kept an eye on for around 25 years, as terrifying as that sounds. All those years have seasoned them into a mighty live unit though. And, if you'll allow me to be uncouth for a moment: Gale 😍

I didn't update but I did do. October's #MonthlyMusicMoment was Kathryn Joseph, supported and accompanied by Lomond Campbell at the Tin Music and Arts, Coventry. Dark and shadowed lyrics, delicate music, and hilarious crowd work.

I came here to do just that! These are (at least, inspired by) ghillie brogues. Ghillies were gamekeepers in the Scottish Highland estates, who would keep visiting poshos from drunkenly killing themselves during hunts for grouse and deer.

For the first of my #MonthlyMusicMoments, I made a three hour round trip to see And So I Watch You From Afar play at Gloucester Guildhall. A post-rock/math-rock four piece from Northern Ireland, I have seen them twice before. Last night was their best showing though, because the crowd was *on it*

I went #Namjooning at Tate Modern yesterday, seeing Do Ho Suh's 'Walk the House' exhibit for the second time. It was even more astonishing than I had remembered. He's clearly quite mad, but in the loveliest, most positive way. It's running until October 26th. I recommend in the strongest terms.

Due diligence has been done, case files have been consulted, and I'm ready to make a bold statement. This is the Boongiest the boy has ever been.

This time, two weeks ago, I was regretting not getting tickets to both nights at the O2. Alas, I had heavy adulting to do first thing on the Thursday. I could have done it time-wise but not mental acuity-wise. I have come to realise that I am fully, platonically in love with this man.
