The "yes, and" cover is the Target CD cover https://www.target.com/p/ariana-grande-eternal-sunshine-cd/-/A-90966979

Target put up their exclusive version already https://www.target.com/p/ariana-grande---eternal-sunshine--target-exclusive--vinyl---no-aasa/-/A-90953437 I'm just going to assume the other covers to be revealed are just the other three photos on the target cover, but individually

lol that and watch, she'll probably copy olivia rodrigo and put a different hidden bonus track on each of the four vinyl

Are you kidding me, she's gonna reveal four different covers and have pre-orders for them one by one, instead of just putting them all up an letting us pick which cover we want (or if you wanted all four, pay combined shipping) I hate the way the music industry has become should I pre-order and then just cancel if one of the later covers/vinyl color I like better?? sorry Ari I like you but not enough to need more than one copy

A little off topic but did we all know that... ...Lana styled Elyanna (a Palestinian singer) for this music video?? https://www.instagram.com/p/Caz8I-rJKrJ/ Briefly talks about Lana at 0:40 here: How did I not know this Anyway, give this song for Palestine a listen too

It's pretty obvious to everyone they want to empty out the Gaza Strip to take it for themselves. As if they haven't already taken enough land, no, they need more. At this point I'm going to guess they wrongly assumed other countries, particularly Egypt, were going to welcome two million refugees with open arms, and when it became clear that wasn't going to happen, they decided to bomb the hell out of Gaza anyway. This isn't about "retaliation" for the Oct 7 Hamas attacks, Israel has viewed Gaza as a problem for a long time Had Egypt taken in the people of Gaza as refugees, Israel would never, ever, ever let them back in. They would have been permanently displaced to Egypt. How many times do Israelis need to show the world who they are? These are not isolated opinions and views. They are the Israeli norm.

What civilized country kills thousands of innocent civilians, thousands of children, just to kill the terrorists behind them? What beacon of democracy repeatedly violates the Geneva Convention and denies the rights of Palestinians to defend themselves, in land no country recognizes as Israeli but as under continuous, illegal occupation? What Jewish state, founded to be a safe haven and refuge for Jews, sacrifices their own Jewish hostages and instead chooses to continue a relentless bombing campaign? What country that claims self-defense against terrorists, use terrorist tactics themselves? Where is Israeli democracy when Israeli police harass Orthodox rabbis and other peaceful citizens protesting the bombing of Gaza and occupation of the West Bank? What Jewish democracy silences the voices of its own Jewish citizens who advocate for peace? What civilized state, claiming to be interested in keeping traditions and heritage alive, erases the the historical and cultural heritage of the very land it is located on? From bombing Palestinian churches and mosques, to chopping down their olive orchards? Why can't the most technologically advanced military in the Middle East afford more precise, surgical hits against targets but instead has leveled almost everything in Gaza?

Just saw a comment online that countries should not let anyone storm their borders (in reference to Hamas attacking Israel). Oh you mean like... how Israel is illegally occupying the West Bank? The cluelessness and hypocrisy of the Zionists

well this mysterious email and now the instagram being back are slightly hopeful whether or not that screenshot from Reddit is real, maybe the fact they had a bunch of people email tap management forced them to look into what was going on imagine if the screenshot was fake and then some poor intern at Tap is like, why did we get 187 emails about ldrvillage?? wait why is the site down? uhh Ben I think you need to look at this

@gmail? How truly strange. I wonder how legitimate it is. I haven't gotten any emails. Did you email tapmanagement? I haven't done that yet

Oh I completely agree. This whole situation is so inexcusable. If her team decided to part ways with the company who was running the site, the site should have been required to automatically shut down or at least post a disclaimer it was no longer official as part of the termination agreement. And someone on Lana's team should've made sure the site actually disappeared and not go rogue and still take orders. If the store shut down, they should have issued refunds automatically. Not just disappear. Not just Ben answering one person's DM (if that screenshot is even real). What happens to the people who don't look at Lanaboards (or reddit or fan accounts on social media) who ordered things and are sitting around waiting because they've been told repeatedly the store can take months to deliver? How would they know to email Tap Management? You would only see that if you are perpetually online following Lana sites. Lana doesn't need negative publicity so it's so weird her management team has let this store basically steal likely $1000s of dollars from undelivered orders and disappear and they're just so aloof about the whole situation. I'm not even going to bother emailing Tap, I'm just going to report it directly to my credit card. Sigh, I really wanted my stuff

She'd say "stop spending so much money on me, music is free to stream, you don't need all the little trinkets either, you don't need all those magazines they just sit in a pile anyway, you should make financially smart decisions and save your money"

the LDRVillage instagram has been deleted they really closed up shop and kept everyone's money, wow

Here's another Israeli source in addition to the Haaretz article I posted that shows only ONE BABY was killed in Hamas attacks https://www.ynet.co.il/news/article/rk0bb2xrt You don't need to read Hebrew to understand the baby symbol in this chart. These are the ages of the victims: There were no beheaded babies, there were no babies put in ovens and killed, there were no babies killed and strung up on clothesline. It simply did. not. happen. It's all lies. If I read one more comment or hear one more Zionist protester shrieking about beheaded babies and babies in ovens I'm going to scream

There's 3,229 in stock (for the repress that ships in February), they won't sell out Edit: oh you mean the literal necklace. there's about 200 of each length in stock, so I don't think it will sell out soon at all

The oldest Israeli newspaper (Haaretz) published an article yesterday (of course only available in Hebrew) debunking a lot of claims about the Hamas attacks. https://www.haaretz.co.il/news/politics/2023-12-03/ty-article-magazine/.premium/0000018c-2036-d21c-abae-76be08fe0000 Non-paywall archive: https://archive.ph/2023.12.03-221527/https://www.haaretz.co.il/news/politics/2023-12-03/ty-article-magazine/.premium/0000018c-2036-d21c-abae-76be08fe0000#selection-5463.0-5471.386 -Only ONE baby was killed in Hamas attacks (Mila Cohen). A second baby was killed when a pregnant Bedouin woman traveling in the area was shot; she was taken to a hospital and gave birth but the baby died a few hours later -The story of a baby being killed in an oven is completely false -Claims about piles of dead children simply aren't true. There weren't even enough children who were killed to make these claims plausible, as most murdered children were found with their families -Claim of pregnant woman having fetus cut out of her are also false. Supposed video of it isn't even from Israel -There was no pregnant hostage taken by Hamas who gave birth in Hamas tunnels. The IDF has no record of a pregnant hostage at all Some Google-translated excerpts, parts bolded by me: -The X account (formerly Twitter) of the Prime Minister's Office also referred to the murder of babies, when it published very graphic photographs and wrote: "These are horrifying photos of babies murdered and burned by Hamas monsters." The tweet states that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu showed the photos to US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken. Similar descriptions were also circulated on behalf of an IDF officer. A few days ago, Kkar HaShabbat writer Yishai Cohen interviewed Lt. Col. Yaron Buskila from the Gaza Division. Buskila told about babies being hung on a clothesline, and similar words of his were quoted by the rightist Goel Vaaknin in X. Cohen wrote that after publication he was told that the story was inaccurate. "Why would an army officer invent such a horrifying story? I was wrong," he added. -To this day, there is no known scene where children from several families were discovered, murdered together. This shows that Netanyahu's description in his conversation with US President Joe Biden, according to which Hamas terrorists "took dozens of children, tied them up, burned them and executed them", does not exactly correspond to the picture of reality. -In Bari, nine minors were murdered, at least some of them were together with one of their parents and were murdered in their home, so it is not possible that 20 bodies were piled up in one place. -But among Bari's dead were no children six or seven years old or close. House number 426 is in the Ashlim neighborhood, where mostly kibbutz veterans live - older people. Elderly families also lived in house number 426, a house with two apartments: Rafi Mordo was murdered in a massacre, while his neighbor, Simcha Shani, was injured. Shani and her husband did not tell about a pregnant woman or a family with small children staying at their home. A video was circulated on social media that allegedly depicts the murder of the pregnant woman, but the "Fake Reporter" organization and other sources reported that the video was not filmed in Israel at all. The kibbutz itself also denied the description, and said that "the story of the pregnant woman reported by Zaka is not relevant to Bari." The police are also not familiar with the case at all, and a source familiar with the examination of the bodies at Shura base also told Haaretz that he is not familiar with the case. -The president of the Ihud Hatzala organization, Eli Bir, told about a baby who was put in a baking oven and burned to death. Bir said these things at a donor conference in the US, and from there the story unfolded, which was even published earlier this month in the Daily Mail, where the baby turned into babies. However, this story is also not true. Mila Cohen and the baby who died after its mother was shot in the stomach were the only babies murdered in the massacre, and the police have no evidence of a body that answers to these signs. -Another claim, the veracity of which is highly questionable, was made by the Prime Minister's wife, Sara Netanyahu, in a letter she sent to the wife of the US President, Jill Biden. In the letter, Netanyahu wrote that one of the women kidnapped to the Gaza Strip was in her ninth month of pregnancy and that she gave birth in captivity of Hamas. On social media the photo of the abductee Natwari Mulkan, a citizen of Thailand, was distributed. The media outlet "The Hottest Place in Hell" published that Dr. Yahal Kurlander from Tel Hai Academic College and an aid group for agricultural workers spoke with the woman's family and acquaintances, who clarified that she was not pregnant. Similar things were also published in an investigation by "At" magazine. Whereas the Moked for Refugees and Immigrants, Ku LeOved and the Aid for Farm Workers organization published a statement according to which this is a rumor that is not based on anything. Molkan was released last Saturday and indeed it turned out that she was neither pregnant nor gave birth. Even the army currently has no information about a kidnapped pregnant woman, and in the security establishment it is treated as an unfounded rumor. There was no response from the Prime Minister's Office. The comments left on the article are certainly pretty revealing about the mindset of Israeli citizens. They pretty much don't care whether things or true or not: "Don't you have anything to write about? Just to help the Hamas propaganda machine. Is it burning now to write? Your "truths" are up in the air without any proof. Shame and shame on Haaretz newspaper. I have subscribed to the newspaper for decades and am considering canceling the subscription." "Hundreds of Jewish citizens, men, women and children were slaughtered because of their Jewishness, a shocking war crime in itself. What is the urgency for the newspaper to be accurate in the numbers? Hamas "only" beheaded two children and Hamas tied up and burned "only" boys and not babies, the woman whose stomach was opened was not pregnant "just" an ordinary woman. An article that reeks of free hate. Is this the truth you want to publish? Shame on you!" "A newspaper for stupid people. People saw everything on the Hamas website. What will they be waiting for you?!?" "Unfortunately, even if these stories are wrong, there are more than enough other shocking stories. Do yourself a favor and don't get caught up in the details, it won't help you and will only make you sick. You are allowed not to read the details. This is also a struggle." Edit: It turns out Haaretz published the same story on their English website today and it's on their front page: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-12-04/ty-article-magazine/.premium/hamas-committed-documented-atrocities-but-a-few-false-stories-feed-the-deniers/0000018c-34f3-da74-afce-b5fbe24f0000 Non-paywall archived link: https://archive.ph/20231204183617/https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-12-04/ty-article-magazine/.premium/hamas-committed-documented-atrocities-but-a-few-false-stories-feed-the-deniers/0000018c-34f3-da74-afce-b5fbe24f0000

I have no idea whether the screenshots are real, but the person who posted them on reddit seems to be a genuine person and based on their comment history just wants to know what happened to their order like everyone else... the email address is definitely real though, I emailed Ed (Lana's other manager) once back in the LFL days and his email was at that same address

I first heard a song and watched a video - Born to Die - at the same time, in 2012. I kept seeing Lana's name on gossip websites but didn't know who she was. She seemed like she was mostly/only popular in Europe at the time (like, no one I knew had heard of her/was talking about her). One day I decided to see what she was all about since I always love things popular in Europe but not in the US, so I typed her name in on youtube and Born to Die was the first result... and the rest is history. I still remember that feeling of hearing her voice and the song for the first time, literally already on the first line I was just in awe and like WOW, this is the best thing I've ever heard! I watched that video like ten times before I illegally downloaded her album (as one did back in 2012 )

I want to be delusional and hope it's all a misunderstanding and that my stuff will still come

This is all so strange, I really wonder what happened. It was definitely a real store since its inception and I've ordered from them before and had my stuff delivered. Their instagram was posting regularly like every other day up until October 2nd and then it just abruptly stopped. I'm sad I won't ever get my stuff, I really wanted it. There are fans who have the things I bought (I ordered an ashtray, a bunch of pins, chapstick, and some air fresheners) so it's not like it's not real merch. There's actually more stuff I wanted to order but I've held off buying it since I currently have two separate orders I've been waiting for. whether Lana's team decided to end their relationship with whoever runs the store or something else happened, they should've taken the site down and processed refunds automatically if they knew they weren't going to deliver

From reddit: That's Lana's manager Ben btw

Well I spoke too soon. I just had my latest email to the support email return as "incomplete". I emailed again yesterday to see whether it was working, and the email wasn't returned so I thought they had fixed their issue. Nope. Just got an email 25 hours later: "Delivery incomplete There was a temporary problem delivering your message to support@ldrvillage.com. Gmail will retry for 46 more hours. You'll be notified if the delivery fails permanently. " I guess at least it wasn't the "address not found" response I got a week ago. This is beyond ridiculous. I can't believe Lana allows herself to be associated with this. I really want the stuff I ordered but if there isn't some kind of indication the store is still in business soon I am going to report my purchases as fraud to my credit card

The LDR Village email works again now, or at least I assume it works again as my second email hasn't bounced back

Tried putting the song on my instagram story but it got taken down "in some regions" for "containing content owned by UMG"

thank you!!! just installed it and got it to work, currently listening to the whole song for the first time i am deceased already
