The person behind Ceres Fauna already had an alt account called Lemonleaf, but that YouTube channel is being rebranded as Nimi Nightmare, with a brand new Twitter being made with that exact username, @niminightmare.
How long it takes for her to debut and how similar that model is to Fauna’s, we shall see.
For the people who aren’t aware, China did repeal the One Child Policy, but most of the children aborted, abandoned or killed during the period the One Child Policy were the daughters.
So there’s generations of Chinese people where the male/female ratio is absolutely fucked.
Mostly posting this because I saw it on AskTD on Reddit, but anyway, the point is that half or more of the world’s semiconductors are produced in Taiwan, and mainland China annexing Taiwan will be disastrous for the tech industry.
Supposedly regulations, bribery and cost of labor is why semiconductors aren’t produced here, but what exactly are said regulations, because every time people mention this, no one ever posts them.
FUCK YOU, SPANOS!
Sorry, had to get that out there, but god damn I love him, even if I don't watch as much American football as I used to and mostly watch soccer and baseball. I heard of that company ages ago but didn't really know what they were until recently, but it seems that this just keeps going along with 2024 being a year of revealing the truth.
Ehh, like I've mentioned to you before, canon is still a useful concept, because anime filler exists (even if for example, the filler in the original Dragon Ball Z show is a lot better than for example, One Piece's filler), and to invoke Dragon Ball again, the only reason that Battle of Gods, Resurrection F and Dragon Ball Super were made is because of Toriyama's personal disgust at Dragon Ball Evolution.
The NBA realised that too many black guys were dominating the sport and they had to do something in order to keep drawing in the masses. Black guys as celebrities weren't as popular at the time. In come the court-seat celebrities who were offered free or discount seats in order to bring allure, spectacle and glitz to the games.
Celebrities were already sitting courtside during the time that made the NBA get popular to begin with, which was the 80s and 90s. Magic Johnson and Larry Bird saved the NBA from a marketing perspective because they were two relatively straight laced players for the two biggest teams at a time where a large portion of the league was black and throwing games for either their bookies or for their drug habits, which was why the NBA Finals before the 80s was on tape delay. Because there wasn't national interest until them, and then Michael Jordan came in 1984 and David Stern, the NBA commissioner at the time, rode that until the wheels fell off.
What I think you're talking about is when Allen Iverson came in and was wearing chains, baggy pants and dressed like his rapper friends when his team would have him sit out of games, which is why Stern introduced the rule to make players dress in suits while missing games, which the players at the time did call racially motivated.
I watch way too much about the history of American sports to not at least clarify.
Figures, Hololive seems to be starting to fail because of shareholder interference in an industry it doesn't really understand.
I wouldn't necessarily say that, but what I do believe is that the shareholders will be made to learn that without the talents' happiness, vtuber companies are worth nothing. The graduations of Chloe and Fauna are for two different reasons, so I get it. Cover does however need to figure out what they're gonna do as the talents leave due to not wanting to continue, as this is a job after all, and I don't think all of them are going to want to spend 10+ years as vtubers.
The only good thing she's done, that most people here would know of was make the injunction that actually stopped the 1994 MLBPA strike.
Outside of that, I'm not sure how she was ever appointed, but that singular ruling shouldn't have carried her to where she is.

The wider soccer thread is very against it

The smaller Manchester United subreddit is mostly supportive in terms of understanding it’s against his religion

The larger Manchester United subreddit locked the thread as well but is more mixed
Yeah, that's why I chose to leave the Reddit threads and just post the article here, because there's a lot of 'you don't protest the Catholic Church being full of pedos and covering them up, the American megachurch pastors existing' nonsense going on.
Also misusing verses like Matthew 19:23-26 to dunk on rich people when that's not what that verse is there for.

Choosing mostly to skim the threads because I don’t have problem with people not wearing these armbands, but one common thread between both is the complaint of “If you’re so religious, why don’t you protest the gambling and alcohol sponsors which are everywhere and way more frequent than rainbow armbands”, which I don’t really have an answer for, but am just curious how you all would handle that question.
Attempts to gaslight me
There literally used to be a site specifically FOR doxxing vtubers, called nyfco, and if you google ‘nyfco vtuber’, you can find that information easily, since the site itself got taken down but the information is still out there.
Where the fuck are you hearing ‘male voices’?
These girls STARTED as indies and applied to join Hololive once auditions came up. A lot of them were either non-vtuber content creators or already vtubers, some of the JP members are ex-idols, a few of the original JP members actually have Hololive as their first real job, as they auditioned during their senior years of high school.
There are a lot of reasons why someone would want to go corporate, but some easy reasons are for boosted reach, a built-in audience that will support you, not having to handle merch yourself and more funds to do certain projects that would be very expensive to do as an independent vtuber. There's also just always having people to do collab streams with in the other members of your agency, but these girls have mostly already been content creators and wanted to join Hololive.
The girls also make a lot of money, but a lot of the girls put that money basically right back into their streams/content, but others save more.
I'm just going to say we agree to disagree, mostly because most corpo vtubers have been doxxed for ages, and with that information, along with everything that's been revealed over the past year, and how easily for example people abandoned Elira Pandora after the infamous 'black screen stream', that's the one thing the vtuber audience is actually somewhat good at, being able to tell whose being a lying bitch or not.
I'm pretty sure I've said this before on another one of these posts, but because of the literal structure of vtubing, models instead of faces, actually having to play the games and not just focus the camera on T&A, etc, the people behind the avatar have to put some semblance of who they actually are into their streams or else they'd be caught in lies constantly, like Pokimane was about her boyfriend, as an example.
Enough of them use their non-corporate accounts and have those videos still up for the viewer to check that stuff out. Do I think everyone's a saint? No, especially a lot of indies, who are the 1-2views (4chan terminology for how many digits are in the viewer count) with badly rigged models you mention in that other comment, but a lot of the bigger ones have had their pasts gone through with a fine tooth comb, which is why I have the belief that I do that at least a large portion of them are not as duplicitous as the Twitch thots.
He's also assuming that female vtubers are just as duplicitous as the Twitch thots, and at least corpo vtubers definitely aren't. In fact, Cover actively screens against bitchiness and that sort of nonsense in order to prevent another Uruha Rushia from being hired ever again.
lol no, I’ve been asleep until now, but whoever did do it is lame
