You know even the gadgets. We know he already had some of the gadgets, and he could’ve just traded or revamped what he already had. Or you know, we see him working with that cop, maybe she helped him get the material.
Honestly I don’t think this is some big mystery or lazy writing, people are blowing the apartment thing way out of proportion. It’s literally described as full of asbestos and junk, that’s not some fancy Manhattan loft, that’s a broke kid squatting in a place barely fit to live in
There’s something kind of heartbreaking about that actually, this genius who saved the world over and over, completely alone now, living in a falling-apart apartment because nobody remembers him enough to help. The gadgets and lab stuff, sure, that part’s a stretch. But the apartment itself? That’s not a flex tbh, that’s just how low he’s fallen since everyone forgot him.
It’s like 2028? In the MCU world which is obviously a lot more technologically advanced than our world. Maybe dumpster diving results in better scrap parts than we would see today.
Omg, BTS would have lost if they had agreed to submit for the Asian category. Kakao and SM Entertainment have established a direct, internal bridge into the Recording Academy voting board because of the Gold Music Alliance Nishimura created. How did the Grammys even allow this major conflict of interest to happen? Letting a man who simultaneously leads Kakao Entertainment Global and SM Entertainment America have so much power is crazy. They turn around and say it’s for the benefit of all Asian artists. No, dear. Y'all just want SM artists to ride the wave of BTS's global success while BTS gets the short end of the stick.
At BTS' SOLD-OUT MetLife Stadium concert today, ARMY showed their support for the group's decision not to submit their music for Grammy consideration during "ARMY TIME":
— "Beyond categories, the music is ours."
also the cameraman just as messy as armys like he plastered every single sign whacking the g**mmys on the jumbotron and let it marinate too like😭💀 WHOLE HOUSE MESSY AND IRRITATED
OUCH.
"Each of the seven members posted the same brief statement announcing that the group would not submit its music to the Grammys this year, adding a hope that music might be heard and loved for what it is rather than sorted by region or language.
Big Hit Music asked that the statement be taken as written, and taken as written it is remarkable, because it asks for nothing. A boycott makes demands. This made none, set no conditions, named no grievance, and offered the Recording Academy no way to win them back. You negotiate with an institution whose judgment you still need. The one whose judgment you have outgrown, you simply inform.
[...]
An award has no value of its own; it is worth exactly what the wanting of it is worth, and the wanting must be freely given. For five years the biggest band on earth gave it freely, showing up, performing, losing, returning, lending the ceremony the one asset it cannot manufacture, the sight of someone enormous still hoping.
That hope was always the Grammys' property more than BTS's weakness. It has now been withdrawn, without anger, without demands, in a statement short enough to fit on a phone screen, by seven men who knocked at a door for years and were at last, generously, offered a smaller one."
you want me to gaf about the grammys when this is the crowd bts pulls with a 5 hour notice for a few minutes appearance. awards can be bought but you can never fake influence.
você percebe que o Grammy REALMENTE sentiu esse aviso de não participação dos meninos quando para pra analisar que eles apenas postaram e estão seguindo a vida normalmente... enquanto isso o Grammy postou nota, apagou vídeos deles, Ceo se pronunciou, votantes estão se pronunciando, gente ligada ao Grammy quase arrancando pêlo da xereca pra defender a premiação
e os meninos seguindo a vida, indo viajar pra cumprir os próximos shows sem se importar com toda essa bagunça acontecendo, eles estão seguros da decisão, eles sabem que não são eles saindo perdendo
