I still don't like it, nostalgia, ULTRA. remains his best work to date

It didn't, the tracks essentially got counted double since the Remixes whose streams got merged are also on the Complete Confection tracklist and they show the same numbers as their original versions. TOTGA original (track 7) got like 350M streams from the Acoustic Version, TOTGA acoustic version (track 13) got 1,3 billion added from the original. Same for every other remixed track (E.T. & Last Friday Night).

Hasn't happened with Gaga's songs as well, except for 1 single song: DWUW ft. X-Tina, which gained like 120M over night from the deleted version with R. Kelly

Could it be that some users triggered this attack by participating in this thread? If you think about it, people were basically instructing ChatGPT to scrape the entirety of ATRL in search of their public posts to write a summary of their personality multiple times.

ok?

Trump winning over Latino men in 2024 was an absolute worms for brains moment

Honestly the entire ordeal is still sad. Like... there's almost like a child-like naivité about Gaga presenting the song to her grandma, as if she's like trying to say "Look Grandma, I'm trying to fix dad!" while her grandma has accepted that her son really can't be fixed, because only he can fix himself and he refuses to do the work. And Gaga kind of did listen to her grandmother and let the hurt go, I don't think she has even uttered the name Joanne after the era ended (unless she specifically talked about the album or the era).

Dancers and tour workers/roadees have unions. Musicians have no union to leverage against touring companies and record labels, they all have to indvidually barter against conglomerates with all the money in the world. Literally proof that unions do work.

I just wanna know who is buying them since they literally have no fanbase

Honestly, I'm using my 12 till it falls apart and then I'll upgrade to the 15 Pro Max. The 16, 17 and 18 models all are not it and the new Chip supplier for the 18 is genuinely concerning me

Billboard didn't ban YouTube, YouTube stopped reporting numbers to Billboard because they were made that their ad supported free streams weren't counted at the same weight as premium streams. If you wanna blame somebody, place the blame correctly and call up YouTube for f*cking Shakira over.

One of Whitney's biggest pop ballads on a list of the best R&B songs The Thunderpuss Remix of It's Not But It's Okay is more R&B than I Have Nothing.

My ex-best friend got with a girl that saw me as "competition" and she started a public bullying/smear campaign against me that he willingly participated against, including revealing private information about my sexual assault that I shared with them and publically confronting me with my rapist. Removed myself from the situation, skipped graduation events, went no contact and sent a cease & desist. And that was that. It kinda f*cked with me that I had lost another great friend, but ultimately it was for the better. Retrospectively, he was a really bad influence on me and that was a lesson I really had to learn. Befriending the bullies out of fear of getting bullied just turns you into an enabler at best (a bully at worst), pretending to be somebody that you are not is a one-way ticket into the mental ward, and you're only a "friend" as long as you act within the parameters they deem acceptable. One wrong move and every piece of friendship and vulnerabilty you shared is a literal weapon you gifted.

"Christians" pushed me in front of traffic because my walk was to f*ggy when I was 10 years old in rural Germany. Just shut up. You know nothing.

you know what, you're right. his face lift is drooping again

he spent 1 billion on gender affirming care to go from a 3 to a 5

Update: A suspect has been arrested by the Berlin police. According to police information the vehicular attack happened at the crossing of Lennéstraße and B96, not near the Siegessäule.

This is a developing story. Berlin pride just cancelled and attendees got evacuated after a car sped into the crowd of the parade finale/concert attended by 100k people. At least 4 people appear to be injured. The car sped into the crowd at Tiergarten/Siegessäule, which is host to the Berlin Pride street festival/carnival. The perpetrator is still at loose, Berliners are instructed to stay inside and shelter. https://x.com/polizeiberlin/status/2081120335282205111?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2081120335282205111%7Ctwgr%5E78898ad38c3a6caf201061b8b31be470804a115e%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stern.de%2Fpanorama%2Fberlin--csd-abgebrochen--moeglicherweise-fahrzeug-in-tiergarten-gefahren-38011818.html Update: According to German news outlet Die Zeit the number of injuries have increased to 14, one person has unfortunately passed away. https://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2026-07/berliner-csd-laut-polizei-abgebrochen-offenbar-mehrere-verletzte Update: A suspect has been arrested as per German news network n-tv. Update: 17 injured, the arrested person on site was not related to attack. According to multiple eye-witnesses the perpetrator was also armed with a knife and attack people after crashing his SUV into a tree. Update: 29 injured, the suspected perpetrator has been shot by the police in a garden colony after an exchange of shots.

I think old songs dominating the charts is a mirror to our society: People wanna listen to old tracks because times right now suck. Living on this planet is terrible, and people wanna reminisce and think about times when things didn't totally suck. People don't wanna listen to new tracks because being rooted in the present reminds people of how terrible the reality of the here and now actually is. Music right now is a comfort, a coping mechanism. And new things are not comfortable. I think newer artists would have a better chance of breaking through, if we weren't on the fast track to worldwide fascism.

I agree. I do think that is very uncommon for older people to look at the other side as well. There's a huge generational divide within Jewish people in the USA: While younger Jewish people predominantly are anti-zionist, the older generation is almost exclusively and staunchly Zionist and apologetic towards everything Israel does because of decades of propaganda. I don't think it's wrong to recognize that Pink is on the other side of the generational divide, with people like Debra Messing.
