Billie Eilish tells Billboard why she uses recycled material for her vinyls ā says some of the biggest artists in the world are releasing several different vinyl versions for numbers and money:
āI canāt even express to you how wasteful it is. It is right in front of our faces and people are just getting away with it left and right, and I find it really frustrating as somebody who really goes out of my way to be sustainable and do the best that I can and try to involve everybody in my team in being sustainable ā and then itās some of the biggest artists in the world making fāking 40 different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more. Itās so wasteful, and itās irritating to me that weāre still at a point where you care that much about your numbers and you care that much about making money ā and itās all your favorite artists doing that sh-t.ā
Dear Everyone who is celebrating Trump likely taking Truth Social public,
This is the worst possible thing that could happen for both America and shareholders.
Why?
Because Trump would potentially become the majority share holder of the stock. This means that every foreign government could control Trumpās net worth. If he becomes President again, that means that any foreign government could short the stock to harm Trump personally, or massively buy the stock to help him. The potential for corruption would be ridiculous.
If Trump were to divest upon winning the election, he would likely single-handedly crash the stock, and investors would lose hugely.
This move is terrible. Everyone should be outraged, but Republicans seem to be celebrating.
