I agree, leave them alone. Now of course, there is a line in the sand. For instance, they cant compete with women in sports as they still have the unfair advantages of a male body. And unless they get their wee wee chopped off in transition surgery, they may not use the women's bathroom/locker room. lol Where is the problem with bathrooms…all of your sick fantasy's There was a time..not long ago… where no women toilets existed in work places…especially in industry.. Just close the door and .. I agree with you in sport I have no issue with it, but many woman do. They don't feel comfortable with biological men in the same bathroom, or in the same locker room, which is understandable.

Wonder why Juliet isn't at the Christmas party. Your Instagram embed will appear here after you post..I know it is a docu about politics… but I think that Juliet exactly feels like the young man portrayed in this German docu… "I'm not allowed to be a child, even if I would like to be - I have to fight, even though I don't want to." Life for Beau, 17, is extremely difficult and dangerous in the USA. He is a strong personality. And trans* . Only a very small minority of all teenagers in the US identify as trans*. So why are they an election issue? she is just tired as he expresses 35:00ff www.ardmediathek.de/video/weltspiegel/trans-teens-im-sturm-der-us-politik/das-erste/Y3JpZDovL2Rhc2Vyc3RlLmRlL3dlbHRzcGllZ2VsLzIwMjMtMTItMThfMjMtNTAtTUVaShe just wants to live her life… be a young woman… but she cannot do this when most of you are treating here like a monster Discussing about toilets… You said " most of "you" treat this person like a monster. Let's see the specific names and evidence of that treatment. You act like there are millions of people reading this forum, when the number of guests showing up in the last 24 hours is 997 according to the home page.

You act like there are millions of people reading this forum, when the number of guests showing up in the last 24 hours is 997 according to the home page. And the majority of those "guests" are the same people using different names. lol As far as discussing toilets and locker rooms...a lot of women feel incredibly violated by that and it's not your place to minimize that eulenspiegel. Easy solution...trangenders get their own bathroom. I do agree that people need to leave them alone, stop judging them, and let them lead their lives. The only issue I ever have is when that intersects with the rights of others, usually women, like when "women" with men's bodies try to compete in athletic events with women...and then they inevitably dominate. That is unacceptable and pathetic.

www.stereogum.com/2240332/spotify-reportedly-plans-to-pay-even-less-in-royalties-to-less-popular-artists/news/Spotify Reportedly Plans To Pay Even Less In Royalties To Less-Popular Artists Spencer Platt/Getty Images NEWS OCTOBER 25, 2023 9:52 AM BY TOM BREIHAN Spotify, already notorious for its insultingly low royalty rate, is reportedly planning to pay even less to artists who don’t already get a ton of streams. Billboard reports that the giant Swedish streaming service is restructuring its royalty system and that it “will de-monetize tracks that had previously received 0.5% of Spotify’s royalty pool.” Presumably, Spotify will frame this as a way to combat fraud and to limit payments to ambient-noise generators, but it could also have a tremendous effect on the service’s role within the independent music world. As Music Business Worldwide reports, Spotify has recently been in talks with Universal Music Group, the most major of the major labels. (UMG has also been in royalty-related talks with services like SoundCloud and Deezer.) According to Billboard, Spotify has also been talking to the other majors and to indie labels and distributors, and the service plans to change its royalty model early next year. The new system will benefit the artists and labels that are already more established, and the biggest change is that a track will need to reach a minimum number of annual streams before it starts generating royalties. Spotify reportedly also plans to enact financial penalties against distributors and labels when it detects “fraud” in uploaded tracks. (The definition of “fraud” here is a little mysterious, and I have to wonder whether it covers things like samples that haven’t been cleared.) Non-music tracks — white noise, ambient sounds — will also have to reach “a minimum play-time length” to generate royalties; Spotify must be sick of paying people for 30 second of bird sounds. The various benchmarks for royalties have not yet been revealed. The labels that supply Spotify with music will have to agree to all these changes, but Billboard claims that the major labels are all likely to sign on because they’ll make more money from these changes. In an earnings call in July, UMG CEO Lucian Grange reportedly announced a “newly expanded agreement” with Spotify, claiming that it’ll be “artist-centric” and that it’ll benefit “real artists with real fanbases.” Since the vast majority of independent artists presumably will not reach that 0.5% threshold, though, I have to wonder whether the smaller labels will see any point in keeping their music on Spotify. Streaming services like Spotify already have a reputation for pushing listeners toward music that’s already massively popular, and it seems that this new arrangement will only increase that tendency. The income gap between big stars and smaller acts is already huge, and this change could make that gap a whole lot larger. -- So with this model, you have to get alot of streams to make money. Unless Jackie gets millions of streams, she has to rely on touring and other income. The purpose of bringing up her streaming numbers is a passive aggressive form of trolling.

Where did you get "millions of streams?" I didn't see that in the article. It doesn't sound like this was meant for established artists like Jackie. It sounds like the purpose is to stop paying scammers for posting junk and filler. The whole music-delivery world is going through another period of disruption, and this is just one of many changes to come. It's too soon to predict doom and gloom for independent artists and small labels, and it would be crazy to bail out of a potential revenue source because of uncertainty or fear about having enough streams.

Agreed. The distinction you make is critical. Especially considering that Jackie 3.0 streams on Spotify are very very low. There are other ways to stream besides spotify and unless you own your own publishing and copyrights, then you arent making much to begin with even with millions of streams. As I mentioned with Tracy Chapman a song she wrote another singer covered she made most of the money off it Luke Combs on spotify http://instagram.com/p/C4iQo5Hugp-

I was referring to a previous billboard article here. I linked to this article prior. Sims confused the "publishing royalties" with the "recording royalties. What I correctly stated: he had a huge hit with Fast Car but most of the money went to the writer. Its clear from the video I posted and the interviewers brought it up that touring really benefits the artist as Combs said.

Its clear from the video I posted and the interviewers brought it up that touring really benefits the artist as Combs said. In the post of yours I originally responded to, you stated:
The reality is that the streaming money for the recording artist went to Combs. That article was mentioning publishing royalties where the bulk went to Tracy Chapman who was both publisher and writer. The little that didn't went to BMI or ASCAP. it wasn't anything about Luke Combs - it referred to Tracy Chapman making bank on Combs' recording. Combs didn't receive any of the publishing royalties - nor should he have done so - as he had nothing to do with the publishing end of it. It never stated he did not receive his recording royalties which would have been close to the same as what Chapman received. So Combs recording of "Fast Car" earned Chapman $500,000: $250,000 each as publisher and songwriter. Each of those is 9.4% (18.8% total) while the recording artist receives 16%. In Combs' case, that would be recording royalties of approximately $425,000. Why you would expect Combs to receive publishing royalties when he is neither the publisher nor the songwriter I will leave to you. But Combs certainly made bank on his recording and the article never said otherwise.

Amazon was a discussion created by a fan for other fans to discuss her career, it was anti-fb from the beginning. It became clear that certain fans could not self moderate and non-fans who wanted to create friction among fans also found an opening to troll in the same spam and gaslighting tactics used today to spam opera singers or poppets. Jackie fans did not care or want to read attacks and left in mass. She was criticized from day one by opera critics all over the internet. She shouldn't be held to that standard as she was interpreting that material as a CC singer, so corrections were along that line. You have long pushed the made up debunked narrative that I was attacking people. That was somebody else who admitted to doing it afterwards on amazon. Its narcissism in that you portray yourself or others as victims of attacks, many years ago some were attacked but I had nothing to do with it.

By your own admission, you are not a fan. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(slang)In slang, a troll is a person who posts deliberately offensive or provocative messages online These messages can be inflammatory, insincere, digressive, extraneous, or off-topic and may have the intent of provoking others into displaying emotional responses, or manipulating others' perception, thus acting as a bully or a provocateur. The behavior is typically for the troll's amusement, or to achieve a specific result such as disrupting a rival's online activities or purposefully causing confusion or harm to other people.

Its a Jealous Mean Girl fantasy of Rickky and enabled by Caz that Jackie is in any fictional competition with anyone else, especially those who show their assets regularly in photos for/to followers. No one other than those two care about social media follower stats. Jackie doesn't have to do any of that unless she wants to as she has had all the success and can record any material she wants. Move on. Wait. Could you just... could you just clarify... uhm... WHOoo... who is Caz? I still have no idea who Caz is. Who the hell is Caz? I think you think people are clear on who Caz is, but I'm not, and if anyone else is they probably don't give a sh!t. Neither do I really, except I kinda do. I just like to keep up with the drama. Not knowing who Caz is is like when you realize you must have skipped a page in a book because you're missing some piece of information. A laundry list of issues have been raised on this forum regarding Jackie, but one thing I know for sure: there is no Caz here. If you define Caz as an amalgam of everyone you disagree with, then fine – I'll just cop to my 10% of your complaints and eat my popcorn – but please take my advice: Argue specific points, it doesn't matter who they come from. Stop attributing hostile motives to everyone who ever posts something you don't want to hear. What lands as an insult to you can simply be a fact to someone else. Don't look at everyone as some kind of threat. You say move on, I say calm down. Caz=Yasmine=Dissapointed. Unless he clarifies who he’s specifically referring to as Caz, that’s my take. But Caz seems to be anyone who says something that he doesn't like. He accuses most people here of being Caz. Caz lives in his head 24/7. The trolling goal is to push fans away with a campaign those two started over a decade ago. Caz uses several registered and guest accounts (any guest account with the exception of ghost or Anastasia has Caz's mo) including ones that pretend to be and insist on being treated as fans (even though they never were) but have the same patterns as they enable the exact same petty absurdly fact free arguments. Its all because her fans are loyal, supportive, and most cant be controlled or made into antifans at least not the smart ones. Rickky and Caz work together to spam those who post their thirst trap selfies and their useless stats while Jackie puts out a music video or has a billboard put up in Times Square. Its trolling. Plain and simple.

"Nine-time Grammy Award winner Sheryl Crow claims she's hustling to make ends meet because no one buys records anymore. Now the "All I Wanna Do" singer, 62, is forced to sell her hit songs, like "Soak Up the Sun" and "Everyday Is a Winding Road," for TV commercials — just to stay afloat. While her 1993 debut studio album, Tuesday Night Music Club, sold more than 15 million copies worldwide, her 2019 release Threads moved a mere 40,000 copies as music fans flock to streaming services like Spotify, which shell out just $4,800 to for a million spins. "You cannot make money," the hitmaker said on an episode of Bill Maher's "Club Random" podcast. "It makes me sad and sick. I hate it because, for me, when you sold records, you knew you had your people." Now a friend exclusively tells In Touch, "Sheryl always thought licensing songs for commercials was a sell-out, but she sees now it's the only way to keep a roof over her head. It's the end the music business as she once knew it." www.yahoo.com/entertainment/sheryl-crow-financial-woes-end-092601419.html
