Okay food et back to #kpop #albums.

Now time for #StrayKids part one: #DoIt #skzDoIt.

I got the It version because that's what Target had in stock when I ordered for pickup last night. Let's #unbox these goodies. :3

This little poster has them looking like a murder of crows and frankly I'm here for it. Dramatic goth #SKZ era when 👀

Duo photocards: #Felix and #I_N, #Han and #Chan. Solo photocard: Han being a cuuuuutie. I've been blessed. 🥰🥰

FYI #STAY #STAYs, the lil mirror in this version of Do It has protective film on both the front AND the back. Annoying af to get off but worth working at it.

Okay time to glance through the photobook 👀👀

- oh someone told Felix he looks good with an implied vertical labret. 👀🥵 (or someone told staff that STAY *loved* it which.... we did and do.)
- #Changbin with that veil on his hat? Gxd PLS give me more of this??? (Can I get muscles!Changbin in veil or is that too thirsty of me. Idek if that one is horny aesthetics thirsty or artistic aesthetics thirsty. ...both?)
- shoutout to #Hyunjin for the cardigan that looks the most sensory hell of anything they're collectively wearing in the pink party shoot. W h y.
- but also kudos to #LeeKnow for layering a soft looking tee under a double-breasted suit jacket-thing and absolutely owning it. Hell yeah be your best self rock on!
- <*gets to the solo shots, gets very O.O*>

Anyway don't ask me how often I told the photos they're all illegal; SKZ is way too fuckin' pretty goddamn.

.... I have no idea what sort of tone to expect from the music. Cool! 😀😍

#unboxing

Opening my new #kpop #albums.

Starting with #TxT #TomorrowxTogether #Together.

First off: cool design to fit everything neatly in the photo book. Very sleek. A+.

Love those stickers negl.

My big photo is #Yeonjun (nice), my photocards are... I think #Soobin and either Yeonjun again or #Hueningkai (I think). (I haven't deep-dived enough to tell for sure just yet and they didn't put their names on the photocards. 😅)

The tarot card thing is Different and Neat!

... okay more contrast for the lyrics foldout pls. A bitch has enough issue with the font size y'all pick, at least don't make it soft gray on every so softly grayed white. TXT pls.

Now that's an atmospheric poster. Glossy would do it loads of favors but I see the appeal of matte (including printing costs 😆).

I'll flip thru the photobook later, I've got food to eat lol.

It’s not depression. It’s living in a misogynoir world that basically hates any real level of intelligence, decency and humanity. Also capitalism.

Anyway, send your favorite #music #songs | #albums when you see this. No kpop or anything related to wicked, please.
