An update on my facial rash that nobody asked for:

Good news 1: It cleared in time for the festival!  
Bad news 1: It’s back  
Good news 2: I know what’s causing it  
Bad news 2: It’s my sunscreen

I loved it last summer and it didn’t give me any problems, wtf happened?? 😭

Same bottle or new bottle? Could be expired or that they changed the formula.

New bottle. It’s the LRP Anthelios UVMUNE anti dark spot fluid that came out last year, I can’t imagine they’d immediately start changing the formula. I’ve used it on days when I know I’ll spend a long time outside because it doesn’t sting my eyes.

I have some Korean sunscreen that I use on workdays (because my commute is 20 minutes and I work in a warehouse with no windows) but after the 2020-21 ~scandal~ I don’t know if I trust them enough to use them on days like today when the UV index is at 6

> **Summary**
>
> Why do you have to keep walking in and then walking out of my life? Why is it strange to you that its upsetting, especially when you’ve done it before and it sucked. It feels like to you, the concept is inconsequential, like im just collateral. I always want to believe that you’ll keep the promises you make when you say it won’t happen again but I can’t. It feels like everything was for nothing and that’s a bummer. Even though in hindsight i should have known, i wish it didn’t sting this bad. lol

You can leave twitter, but twitter won’t leave you.

It’s supposed to finally rain today after a full week of 35-40 C°. I hope it’s true, because I can’t take the heat anymore ;/

I literally was trying to find a spellbound thread. I could’ve sworn there was one haha! Man this is my favorite release by them!!

It’s the closest BBS release. If this is the direction they go I’m fully on board. Yusuke has been killing it covering BBS songs for lives!

i wanted to put this in random instead of any actual threads, but with the one-two punch of Kyouka and Yoshiatsu, i’m made to remember one of my favourite PVs by Pentagon. I know that’s a sus and possibly upsetting first sentence but if you’ll bear with me for a moment…

i think to some degree my actual life direction changed when i saw this one. maybe it’s worth a watch?

[![](https://forum.jrockone.com/uploads/default/original/3X/9/6/96b1b0c1c2496c55547519df72c3f1bc2e761ae1.jpeg "ペンタゴン「夢から覚めた日」MV FULL") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYsAJjZjPAA)

For context, they put it out just before disbanding, and in the video, a woman who seems around 30 appears to express exhaustion as her boyfriend(?) of a same age continues band activities, and she supports him. Read the lyrics too, it’s from her perspective, you feel a yearning for the success she feels he deserves, but in the video you see her collapse on the subway.

I don’t want to praise pentagon, a band of vkei guys, when talking about harms women in the scene feel at the actions of vkei guys. I’ll instead talk about myself, bc when i saw this video i was first tremendously confused; it made no sense to me and seemed random, so i kept returning to it, wondering why. I shared it with female friends who knew of vkei asking their perspective, what did they get from it?

I don’t know (and don’t care) if this is what Pentagon intended, but what i got from talking to my friends is the song and video examined the toll knowing an artist intimately can take on a person. It’s still hopeful and loving, and that’s not enough, the spending on someone else is still felt by her. All these people who were then kids talking now as adults must have at some point wanted the best for whatever band, but now look at what’s fallen on all them.

So it makes me wonder if that disbandment was due in some part to looking at the effect continuing band activities was having on the people around them, and finding it not worth it. Eh, this isn’t an open letter to all vkei musicians to stop doing vkei music, as that wouldn’t at all be what i hope for. But transparently, personally i hope more people if they see this video or otherwise think seriously about what they’re giving to whom and what they’re getting from whom. I want to think my fav scene can go on to exist without taking so much from who sees so much in it.

US getting a taste of a heat dome wave now too it seems.

I am not a fan of Schadenfreude… but it’s kinda funny to see the same people saying “weak Euros, why don’t they just turn the AC on, lmao” complaining about the heat.
