They have to be or have been a US citizen.

Pretty much title. I've seen this talked about a lot but I only very vaguely know what all this means, could someone elaborate on what happened, why it happened and what the consequences of it are?

This is after they already tried to wrap her into it on October 19th https://twitter.com/Israel/status/1714922694414598419

Holy shit, I thought Ukraine propaganda was cringe but Israel is making them look sane and normal. How pathetic can a country get? https://twitter.com/Israel/status/1721074264671994178

We love our cringe twitter stans, don't we folks. I wonder how many Swifties had no strong opinions on this matter before Israel tried to claim their idol for their side and pissed them off in the process.

I don't know if asking for likes is against hexbear rules but it would be so freaking funny if the IDF refusing Swiftie post ratio'd the country of Israel itself, the reply is only 600 likes off.

Rare stan twitter W, also you can tell the real Swifties by them @'ing Tree Paine, Taylor's head of PR iirc

Posting this partly because it's classic lore and partly because I was an actual stan twitter Swiftie at the time and not only that, I was friends with this girl and had met her irl when she went to prison.

She was an Israeli communist and while she was in prison, she'd write notes that her friend would post to twitter. I don't remember much of what she said about her time in prison but I do remember that she apparently got laid a lot while in there, so good for her.

Our friend group drifted apart over the years and I'm not in contact with her anymore. The story has gone viral a few times since then and I've seen a lot of upvoted comments say that it's fake and the girl was actually from Michigan or some shit?

I'm here to tell you that no, this girl was real, she was from Israel (I distinctly remember her having to quit a skype call because of a bomb alarm) and she really did go to prison for refusing to join the IDF. I remember her tweeting in hebrew on her main account and repeatedly posting pro-Palestine stuff. This story is 100% real and I can confirm it to you first-hand.

Also fun fact: "LegitTayUpdates" was a bit account. It was not a "real" update account that would post paparazzi shots with real things Taylor did today, it was mainly Swiftie shitposting. The content was not too dissimilar of c/taylorswift, honestly. Maybe that's why people thought the prison thing was fake? But no, that really did happen, she texted us about it ahead of time as well.

My friend made me install Bumble. I want something that leftists will recognize but that won't immediately scare off liberals (I can fix them)

Does anyone have any cool Lenin quotes for this purpose or something

Tesla is building a humanoid robot to do manual labor and this is up there with his idiotic hyper loop projects in being a perfect example of his insane obsession with form over function because FuUTuRee.

Proposed tasks for the product are ones that are "dangerous, repetitive and boring", such as providing manufacturing assistance.

This week, Mr Musk told investors the humanoid robot's first application would be at a Tesla plant "moving parts around the factory, or something like that". But in the future, he sees it helping solve labour shortages.

Tesla Bot will measure 5'8" (173 cm) tall and weigh 125lbs (57 kg) [...] and have a carrying capacity of 45 lb (20 kg).

Elon thought to himself "wow wouldn't it be like really futuristic if we had humanoid robots working in our factories" and then decided that was a good idea. We have thousands, thousands of machines that can do repetitive, boring tasks like these better than any human ever could. There is literally no practical reason to confine your machine to human form, which is absolutely not optimal for pretty much anything.

2 legs are stupidly impractical, they make you slow and incredibly easy to push over compared to something with 4 legs, let alone something with wheels. Even just walking is a balancing act. 2 legs are the reason this billion-dollar-punchline can only carry a pathetic 20 kilograms.

The only, and I mean the only reason this is done is because it looks futuristic. In practice, it's a massive step backwards and it will make any work place perform worse than without them. Elon doesn't want "machines", those don't look like the future, he needs "robots". Robots which are, in practice, just humans but worse.

I don't know if this is the right community or c/anime but whatever

I love Hololive and Hoshimachi Suisei is my absolute favorite. She has her first solo concert tomorrow but Hololive charges bizarre prices for these, 5000 yen (37,63€ or $43,80) for a stream of a digital concert is insane.

So I was wondering if anyone here knows where I could either find a recording of this afterwards or, alternatively, if there are other fans here maybe who'd be interested in buying one ticket together and then one person could stream it to the others and record it perhaps? After buying a ticket you can watch the archived stream until the 21st of November so it should be feasible.

Asking here because as a Hololive fan, most other Hololive fans would rather snap their own necks than pirate something like this. I just wanna watch my favorite anime girl sing ;-;
