deeply refreshing to see someone critical of Swift who also like, genuinely likes her. Like i'm neutral to positive on her, but the online discourse has been absolutely rancid. flipping between "Taylor Swift has never done anything wrong ever and she's a fucking genius" and "Taylor Swift is the worst lyricist of all time and also a bad person" is exhausting, so thank you for like. nuance or something lmao
not to make it serious for a sec but i genuinely think that being able to like things that are bad is really important. like I think that it's an important skill to be able to look at something and see what you personally enjoy about it and then take a step back and acknowledge that objectively it's flawed. and to also be able to acknowledge that liking something isn't necessarily an identity or a moral stance. and i think that fandom space in general could really benefit from more people taking the time to learn how to do that. it's okay to like things that are bad
#people ask me sometimes why ill occasionally talk about something i like and then go 'but it's bad' and the answer is usually because it is#i love teen wolf. i love genshin impact. i love detective conan. and i fucking LOVE taylor swift. that doesnt mean theyre good#it just means i like them. and recognizing their flaws actually helps me better identify what i like about them!#it's like. in my mind bad > good is the x axis and i like it > i dont like it is the y axis yk. they're not mutually exclusive#tldr it's not that serious. we can all relax a little#irt taylor swift i do also think she has done some real harm to her fans in enabling them to deflect all criticism of her as misogyny#and i don't think it's fully the fault of these people who are parroting that response bc so much of her marketing has deliberately#reinforced this idea that to be a swiftie is to be a part of a sisterhood and that any attack on taylor is an attack on all of those women#who are in that in-group. when that's obviously not the case. but she's marketed herself as. for lack of a better term. 'girl music'#to the point where it makes her fans feel as though any criticism of the music or the woman responsible for it is an attack on their#personal experience of womanhood/girlhood/sisterhood/etc. and that's how you get all of thess bad-faith accusations of misogyny#i don't necessarily think this was her deliberate goal with her marketing tho because like. on first glance such a strong sense of communit#among fans sounds like a great thing. the friendship bracelets i got at the eras tour movie are really genuinely special to me.#but it does present a problem when your fans are unable to separate how they feel about the community and experience your music has fostere#from how they feel about you as a person. especially when you are a billionaire who absolutely CANNOT be above criticism in this economy#anyway. tldr i love taylor's music and i don't think swiftie hivemind is as deliberately malicious as it may seem#but it's obviously necessary to be able to take a step back and look objectively at what you're participating in.#anyway stream ttpd or don't idc <3#taylor swift

we all know that taylor’s commitment to energetically dancing at award shows is amazing for many reasons from being incredibly fun to watch as well as being a compliment/courtesy to the artists (and how she has discussed that she always dances and sings at award shows because she finds it miserable to be the person performing at such events where the crowd is not hype at all etc etc) but we also kind of don’t spend enough time on the way she also says she’s just there to have fun and doesn’t see why she would waste a night of amazing performances just sitting down and pretending to be bored to look cool because i also feel like this goes to another level when you consider that taylor actually very rarely gets to see live music from an audience sort of setting and doesn’t really have the opportunity to go see her favorite musicians in concert. so getting to dance and sing to full out live performances at award shows is really the closest she can ever have to that

SORRY to be a hater again but i was a fan for over a decade im giving myself a treat. but like. the argument that everyone expects folklore/evermore levels of writing from every subsequent album and THAT’S why people are disappointed is sooooo stupid and oblivious. like you can write fun pop music or moody quiet pop or WHATEVER and it doesn’t have to be perfect prose it doesn’t have to have groundbreaking poetry for lyrics but for the love of god why do you sound like a tumblr post from 2014

“One less temptress. One less dagger to sharpen” reminds me of how she’s talked about infidelity in the past, in particular on Red, and I feel like we’re not prepared for some of the devastating lyrics that await on this album.

Taylor Swift needs to stop with all these different editions of the same album but with different bonus tracks. It's just rude and greedy. I will buy one cd per album and it sucks that I would have to buy like a million exclusive versions just to have a physical copy of every song (*glares at Midnights concert exclusive cd that also isnt a complete version of the album but still is the only physical edition of certain songs and also completely impossible to buy*)

i hate that taylor and her team always take down every video or podcast on spotify w one of her unreleased/exclusive songs. like let people enjoy your music?? if you're going to exclusively sell it to one group of people then you know people who couldn't get it bc of different reasons are going to come up w ways to listen to it. why are you so hateful

i’m really not liking the midnightsification of 1989 tv
like for me (and from what i thought taylor said) the main goal for the taylor’s versions was to own her own music but not necessarily profit
midnights was a whole new album so i completely understand why she went so hard on the vinyl variations for more sales and to go towards records
but the taylor’s versions weren’t really supposed to be that, like having songs exclusively on vinyl/cd to push sales especially for 1989 tv doesn’t really sit right with me because that wasn’t supposed to be the point :/

Wondering if Taylor will have an exclusive variant for record stores, will make all variants available at them or just give them one.
