for the last 2+ weeks, the Amazon has been catching fire. Yes, it’s the season where that’s normal but because of the sayings (aka incentive) of our new president, some farmers are taking advantage of that and intentionally setting the trees on fire. Yesterday, because of this, the sky of São Paulo looked like this. AT THREE IN THE AFTERNOON.
Hospitals of the northern states are filling up with people (especially children and seniors) claiming they can’t breathe properly. ALREADY ENDANGERED ANIMALS ARE DYING. THIS IS SERIOUS.
Germany and Norway, huge donators to the Amazon cause will stop sending money because they don’t see results (that can also be credited to our president, who has been tweeting angrily ever since - not because he cares about the environment, btw). That money gives this guy and his team equipment to save little guys like these:
THIS AFFECTS EVERYONE, NOT JUST BRAZILIANS. The Amazon is the largest rainforest in the world, and it’s being destroyed. WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.
If your country is holding elections, vote for someone who cares about this. Don’t let another Bolsonaro or another Trump have the power to do something and then do nothing. This is going to shape our future — if we have one.
PLEASE REBLOG, EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THIS!!
side note: not to sound bitter or ungrateful but also like what’s up with Europe... y’all exploited South America for centuries but just because you “aren’t seeing results” you stop helping altogether??
edit: I’m sorry if it sounded like I’m blamying Europe. I’m not. It’s our own government’s fault (Bolsonaro merged the agriculture and environmental ministries when he was elected, for God’s sake) and I’m really sorry if I offended anyone, I was just angry. Please don’t let that be the only thing you take away from this post.

He looks so happy here :) I wish he could have always been this happy..
Okay.
Everyone.
Take a deep breathe.
You're okay, Woojin is okay, Skz are okay.
There have obviously been some problems we didn't know about, whether it's a physical problem, mental problem, or whatever, something was going on and now we have our beautiful eldest member Woojin leave the group. This doesn't mean we have to pretend he was never there, this doesn't mean we can't be upset about it, but it'll be okay. He above anyone knows what's best for himself and whatever made him make this decision had to be important enough to leave something he's worked very hard for. It's okay to be sad, it's okay to cry. Take time away and just get yourself together. I know a group can come back and even bounce back stronger than ever before when this happens. Stray Kids are still nine or none, but this time Stay will just have to be that 9th member. Work hard for skz, keep supporting them, but above all take care of yourself. The important thing is everyone is okay. We will be okay. Stay strong Stays ❤️
this account does and will always support Bang Chan. if you don’t, feel free to unfollow or block me. thank you. he did nothing wrong and the hate he’s getting is literally for no reason. he’s not a racist. where that came from?? idk.
anyways, i love chan. he’s a whole cutie and an amazing person. thank you for coming to my ted talk
Since JYP Ent. hasn’t spoken up about anything for a WEEK, I’m just going to assume the most likely case. They kicked Woojin out, plain and simple.
Because if it was really personal reasons, there would have been a specific statement as to why, like other companies did for Hwall and Wonho. If it was a family issue, we would have known from Woojin himself, like how we knew about IN2IT Kim Sunghyun’s economic situation concerning his family.
And it can’t have been something that bad because we would hear of it anyways. Like come on, drugs and sex scandals? We’ve been there. There can’t be anything worse.
But it doesn’t matter what’s going on.
Unless there is a clear explanation as to why Woojin is suddenly taken out of a group I will keep on talking about Woojin and drive JYP and his company mad. But I am not going to be seen as the Stay that stood by while a member was forced out of his own group. That’s a regret I am not going to have.
When idols have to hide the hair when they have a comeback.
But oh. My. Word.
You are all accusing Heechul of being a predator??? For dating another consenting adult???
YOU. DON'T. KNOW. THESE. IDOLS. PERSONALLY.
By calling Heechul whatever disgusting names the internet loves to use, you are questioning Momo. You all claim to love Momo and want to protect her when you automatically assume that she can't possibly be dating Heechul because, I don't know, HE'S A GOOD GUY who is famous for how respectful he is to women?! And you automatically assume a bunch of sexual stuff and not that he's dating her because he LIKES HER? You are questioning Momo's ability to think for herself and be a grown working woman making adult choices.
I have seen countless young girls go full on crazy over male idols. I've heard 14-year-old girls say sexual things about idols who are almost 30. Several of the people crying over Heechul and Momo have said these things themselves. Also apparently Heechul admired her "when she was a teenager" - you're leaving out the fact that she was 19 - AN ADULT.
And to all the people sobbing about how they're both actually gay and it's a coverup, you disgust me. You actually disgust me. These idols sexualities are none of your business. Oh, and throwing shade to someone because they're not the sexuality you wanted them to be? That's not only a million times creepier than anything you claim Heechul has done, but is hateful and contradicts everything you supposedly stand for - which is supporting people no matter their sexuality.
Momo and Heechul are both adults with their own private lives who don't owe these bratty, selfish, so-called "fans" anything. I've seen people giving Heechul DEATH THREATS. Which is in fact illegal (their relationship is not).
In short - Heechul and Momo deserve all the love and happiness in the world. You're allowed to be uncomfortable as I know many people have had bad age gap experiences but please PLEASE for once just realize that not everyone has the same experiences as you.
And to everyone accusing Heechul of horrible things and to everyone who's so concerned for Momo's safety - I sincerely hope you can get a life and stop infantilizing women as well as stop assuming the worst about a man simply because he is a man. Oh wait - this is your life. I don't hate any of you - I'm sorry for you. You must feel so bad about yourself that you feel the need to try to ruin innocent people's lives that you have no involvement in because for some reason you've decided it's bad.
Stop treating idols like they're fictional characters who must adhere to your headcanons and ships. Stop infantilizing grown adult women making their own life choices. Stop threatening men on completely baseless accusations. This is the most disgusting thing I've seen in a long time. I sincerely hope you all learn from this and stop acting like the terrifying cross between Puritans and Radfems that the internet seems to breed so prolifically.

Its been one-thousand and ninety-five days since you’ve gone away. Those three years have been long. So, so long.
We haven’t forgotten you. We never will. Your music plays through the speakers of our cars, your smile is thought of, your humbleness is cherished, your imprint on our lives is well known. You are remembered Jonghyun, not just by your music alone — but by the four men who persevere in your memory. You are still loved, thought of, embraced, and missed. You are that beacon of light, of hope, of love.
Your battle was hard, and you did all you could do, but sometimes, that weight gets too heavy even for the strongest of people. There is nothing wrong in accepting that. You’re simply one person, and it’s not your fault.
The day you left us, the moon flickered out for just the briefest of moments. Was it welcoming you into its embrace? You are the moon. You are the stars. You are everywhere. You are a gift in words, in lyrics, and I just want you to know that we’ve heard them. Read them. We do it so we can sing them back at you. Write us something new if you get the chance, and we’ll listen to it in the wind. We’ll listen, because we weren’t listening hard enough before.
We love you. We miss you. 수고했어요.
