Recently I've taken stock & asked myself why I'm so invested in this band from halfway across the world. They do me good, they make me happy, and I know I'll stay with them until forever, but why? Well, there are many reasons. Here are 3 (very personal reasons): 1(5)
@bts_twt
When I said I'd share no Jin military pics unless he posted them himself I was told in very unkind words that he never would be allowed so that's why the pics on military pages were fine to share. Well. The pics he shared on WV prove the opposite. So. You know what I mean?
Hello... It's... me... Cypher... Shesawseesaw... do you recognise me..? I worry that I'll lose touch with my dearest moots if my 👻-ed Plan A goes under for real... 🥺💜
Right. It's me, Cypher (main in screenshot) , and I'll be acc hopping to try to get the most done for the drop, in spite of Melon Husk..! Please find me here on this, my bu acc too!
The $26 I paid for the amazing, energy boost, love letter of
#BANGBANGCON_TheLive
was easily the best anti-boredom investment since this pandemic. The value for money is fantastic cuz the amount of work, practice & preparation for the event must be enormous. So grateful.
@bts_twt
Other artists hype their releases for weeks...
@bts_twt
and
@bighitent
? Oh, they don't even tweet a link to the release, they just drop it quietly and disappear for the day, leaving promotion to ARMY... 😂
Hey it's me
@cypherluscious
, just a heads up, if you tweet a promise to go visit unspecified individuals to wave frozen marine life around them you might get r-worded. Apparently. 😬🤦♀️
#TwitterHasAbsolutelyNoSenseOfHumour
Don't mind me, let me just vent here on the quiet *deep breath*:
If you don't approve of my playlists just DON'T STREAM THEM AND MAKE YOUR OWN because that's what I do, I make playlists FOR ME, I just share them too in case someone might want one.
Oh I sincerely hope Tae unfollowed back to 7 because he wanted to and not because he saw the mess.
It's neither the first nor last time one of them will interact with people that might not be to your liking, but it's not your decision to make, so just trust them. Seriously.
While sh*dow b*nned on main I shall camp out here for a bit, where I fly completely under the radar and no one sees me... kind of like on my main atm... 😕.
Oh.

My father used to tell me that in order to understand a person's character you should look at how they treat, not their friends or bosses, but the ones who are in a dependent relationship to them. He was a wise man. Stay gold.

#BTS
The thing is, it's not about talkshow hosts or lazy writing. It's not even about
@BTS_twt
or ARMY. It's about everyday racism. The "jokes" in the office. The (under)representation of Asian actors and artists. It's about acts of violence against POC.
It's about the road ahead.
Right.
👁🤍 can...go catch a flying frozen fish with their teeth, and that purple layout can be a coincide, but I'm still 😑.
Don't let any outlet or acc use us for clout. Especially not these two. Or William Board.
I was looking for something in my saved files and happened upon this clip of Jin looking like Seokjin and then the rule says to always (ALWAYS) share. You're welcome.
@BTS_twt
I'm so happy when the members share their own travelling pics because then I know they're fine with us knowing they're off on new adventures. Personally I prefer not to share media airport pics...
...the way things look, I'll take up residency in my Cypher corner again and Plan B(TS) will go back to being... well, Plan B again. Come find me there..?
Personally I'd advise against raising your follower count with these kinds of tweets. I want oomfs who stay with me and actively choose to follow due to contents.
Yes, it takes more time to get a stronger voice, but at least then you're not shouting into the void of anonymity.
I swear, since I muted certain words and names, my tl is all fairy dust & rainbow unicorns! Best decision ever!
(Tagging
@bts_twt
because the best decision ever is actually stanning them...)
...a bit of empathy and kindness goes a long way. You don't know the circumstances of others, and what may seem like a trifle to you, might be a serious matter to some. Don't be so quick to judge. That's all I shall say. 🤐
Leave? They feared we would leave them? Don't they know our blood runs purple and we will never leave? Don't they realise we are in this for life?
@bts_twt
and
@BigHitEnt
, do you not know?
Let's vote. Drop OT7 pics of bangtanniest Bangtan that ever bangtanned.
I found it impossible to choose just 1 so here are 4:
💜 Happy foody Bangtan
💜 Kai-bai-bo Bangtan
💜 Happy chaos Bangtan
💜 Family Bangtan.

A very gentle reminder that huge accounts can also be, or feed & encourage, solo stan behaviour. Size is not a guarantee so always investigate before following. Thank you for coming to my anti-solo stan lecture.
...I know it's Christmas in just a couple of days, but this year my heart just isn't in it, as our family will feel incomplete, and I know there are many people for whom the Holidays always are a particularly hard time of the year. I'm sending each of you a special hug. 💜
5(5) Purple Life
To sum up this thread, the reason why
@bts_twt
own my heart until the end of time is that they make me stronger through their music, lyrics, message. They invited me into this purple world, gave me a hug, and told me "It's okay to be you." And I believe them. 💜
Gonna say this here to: If issues arise, we deal with them quietly. Shouting them out into the world in all caps is the worst thing you can do. Be more clever than loud...
What a week it's been... and that's just the fashion side of
@BTS_twt
...
(Still 👻 b*nned) (Still gonna point out the beauty of Yoongi's forehead, Jimin's hair, and Hobi's pout though.)
One positive thing about this 👻 ban thing is that I'm forced to clean my Plan B timeline too... And may I just say it was long overdue.
If you're just starting your duck app journey, curate your followings and tl straight away! It'll save you a lot of time and trouble.
Mono is really That Album. It is a shoulder to cry on, an encouraging nod, a comforting smile. I listen to tracks from it every day.
What an amazing gift from an inspiring man. What a well earned win.

Real ARMYs watching all the media & gp suddenly talking about
@bts_twt
and ARMY, wanting our clout for their own purposes, while ARMYs know we're in this for Bangtan, and for Bangtan only.
#BTS
#BTSARMY
Perfectly put. It's not the attention we're missing here in the shadows, it's the talks, jokes, banter in replies. It's like being at a party, talking only to yourself.
A conversation with a moot helped me put some words on why this shadowbanning hurts
Without replies you can't have a /conversation/ you can only broadcast. So the frustration with it is nearly the *opposite* to wanting "hit tweets". It's wanting actual connection.
"The only thing we can control is ourselves. Get your hands on the changes you can make."
- Don't stress over the numbers of others.
- Don't be made to feel insecure about how you support
@bts_twt
.
Do what you can.
There's no Best ARMY Award.
Just have fun & enjoy armying.
💜
2(5) Love myself
Yes, cheesy, I know, but someone telling me that I can & should love myself for who I am has changed my outlook on life & above all myself. Although I'm far from perfect I'm doing all I can and that's good. Not good enough: Good.
@bts_twt
tell me. Every day. (+)
We're talking about the
@bts_twt
rabbit hole, but isn't it more like entering a door held open by Jimin, as Jin is ushering you inside, with JK waving at you while RM greets you with a warm hello and Tae offers you a seat while Yoongi is looking shyly at you from the corner?
3(5) Acceptance
Joon said "yesterday's me is still surely me" and that truly hit home. Mistakes, past, present, future ones, are inevitable but there's no point beating myself up over them. Some things I might regret, but they're all part of where & who I am today.
@bts_twt
(+)
4(5) Vulnerability & Trust
@bts_twt
both tell & show me that even if I'm strong & capable and an adult, I can also be tired and need help at times. It's okay. I must admit it to others, but mainly to myself, and trust that they'll be there to hold & support me. I'm NOT alone. (+)
... you'd best believe that when an ageist tweet turns up on my tl I'll check likes & retweets and remove followers who clap in agreement. Do you know how old I am? Yeah, exactly. If you think anyone over 25 is ready for retirement, I don't think you'll like it in my corner. Bye.
Today seems to be a good day to greet old & new followers since I moved to this account.
My house rules are simple:
- NO solos, antis, mantis
- Play nice, let everyone fanperson the way they want to
I promise to never:
- make you jump through hoops to stay moots
💜😊
@bts_twt
...did enough time pass..?
Expose threads.
We all know how easy it is to take a tweet, reply, or DM and twist it. How easy it is to fake a ss. Without context anything can be turned into... well anything else.
Before jumping on the cancellation bandwagon, just pause.
(+)
Oh what a messy tl I have on this acc... I neglected curating it, I guess.
Please don't find with any other fandoms... Let's just stream the great track, enjoy the MV, and try to stay in touch with moots in this our own version of Interlude: Shadow... Focus on what matters...
There are many upset voices over YT and I completely agree, they're a snake, but to put it into perspective let's remember purchased views can never beat organic success in the long run, and
@bts_twt
prove they have the numbers to back up their status as true world superstars.
Does it ever suddenly and unexpectedly hit you that Jimin is such a beautiful and kind person and you'd love to have a friend like him? Just me? Ah well.
@bts_twt
#Jimin
Woke up to a text from a student who graduated a few years ago.
He wanted to thank me and say the gentle yet firm pressure, encouragement, and high expectations I had of him, changed his faith in his own abilities & gave him courage to choose the route he's now taken.
I- 🥺
My two cents on this 🍊 situation:
We're a force to be reckoned with, and if we put our minds to it there's very little we can't do. But. With great influence comes great responsibility, and as much as we laugh at this latest display of power, there are things to consider: 1(5)
So I just saved this pic of Yoongles drinking out of a water bottle.
It's pic number 764 of Yoongi.
He's drinking water.
From a bottle.
Why did I even..?
Help.

Need to tweet sth on this side too, so here's a great pic of Joon that you might not have seen before.
(Who am I kidding! As if there were any pics you haven't already seen and saved and backed up to your cloud storage...)
@BTS_twt
I'll happily block anyone complaining about who sings what and when. I will block you with a smile, regardless of whether we are mutuals or not because I do not want to see it. 😘
The respect I have for
#BTS
as artists is hard to describe.
They refuse to buy their way into charts. No bundles. They let their music speak for them. They want success, but they will not bend to the "rules" of the industry at the cost of their vision. Integrity. (+)
@bts_twt
Ah. It's that kind of day I see.
Since I have new followers on this ne acc it might be time for this:
In this house we love & support all 7 members. Solo stans are not welcome.
Here we know our place as fans and trust BH & BTS to make the calls. Mantis be gone.
Now carry on.
Gaaaarrgh! I just woke up to 500+ new followers here (crossovers from my main) and I'll try to work through them as quickly as I can but I don't want Elmo to put me on the naughty step for following too many at once so please give me some time! 😬😱
I'm even more reluctant to vote on this acc. Because I know they will just award whomever they feel like, but still I vote, because BTS is
#TheGroup
at
#PCAs
, and that's all there is to it.
@BTS_twt
@JohnCena
I love your tweets. This right here is such a poignant message for example. Hope without effort will get you nothing but disappointment. Effort without hope and you will lose your orientation. Hope and effort in combination will get you to where you want to be. 💜
Good morning, class, today's topic is muting & blocking.
Now, it's important to take charge of your own acc. Your tl should make you happy, not anxious or stressed. That means you actively choose whom to follow & you filter out negativity, cuz this is about your experience. (+)
I've almost (not quite) given up on getting my main
@cypherluscious
but I still miss so many old friends.
Might those of you who found me help me one last time by retweeting this so maybe a few more can find me on this new account? Thank you I miss my old friends... 💜
