#i always loved ME! because it's a fun bop PERIODT

[hushmirrorball13]

Remember when Taylor Swift called out her own fandom by putting the making of ME! in Miss Americana because they were so mean to her about it 🤪

ME! is a bop and y'all can stay pressed

my gaang for nationals part 1

contains: permanent appreciation post for some of my really really close friends/mutuals (if you’re not in this i’m sorry, but i’d love to talk more if you’re interested!) in no particular order. where they fit in the scenario in which we’re all in haikyuu

notes: i love making these and i love you all, so here’s something that randomly came to mind when i read hesther’s love fest :) also, i’m clearly a libero asdjfkl. oh and there will be a part two to this for my other mutuals, but i’m tired and want to stop typing sooo that’ll come tomorrow maybe

@firelordhesther​: hes

↳ general words: 

hello mother, i’m rewriting this paragraph because i’m pretty sure you managed to read the first draft and i wanted to surprise you so here’s something new. i’m going to be nice since this is a public post and i don’t want strangers to see how much ~love~ i have for you. you’re the only one who can tell me what to do, like i actually listen to you which is weird..i don’t even listen to myself usually. ngl you scare me sometimes, but it’s a good kind of scary. ily..i guess. see you whenever i decide to drive down to the yeehaw land.

↳ team position: captain

besides the icky stuff up there, i think that you’d be the team captain if we were on a volleyball team. you have a way with words in which you can reign chaos in with a simple paragraph. you’re also very authoritarian, whether you mean to be or not, and then you give everyone advice in a nice way that doesn’t make us feel stupid. i’d listen to you if you were my captain, and i think everyone else would too.

@nekomabvc​: lina-chan

↳ general words: 

you’re my favorite person to harass. you’re literally me but in a nicer and whiter font. i really like making obscure memes about you and then emailing them to your personal email. that’s funny—besides all of that you’re like my bff lina-chan..my internet bff. my irl’s get really annoying sometimes and it’s nice to know that i can just text you and you usually answer, unless you’re doing your million step bathroom routine. and whenever i’m on the phone, ella always thinks i’m talking to you and it’s really annoying because i don’t like you..but also like..aishiteru. 

↳ team position: setter

you always say that setter is the only position that you’d physically be able to play, but i feel like you fit the position personality-wise as well. you’re very in control with everything around you, you like things to be a certain way and get frustrated when they’re out of place. you think logically over creatively, and would take control of the team in a way that no one else could. when you get in the zone, you can be really motivating and you’re good at guiding steps and practice. you’d be a really good setter.

@calcifers-newjersey-accent​​: ella

↳ general words: 

hello. i hate you. cancel quesadillas.

↳ team position: middle blocker

first of all, you’d be total middle blocker perfection considering your height and stature. bitch be literal tsunami in femal forme. you’d be jumping and popping and going BOP BOP to all those balls, and everyone would be like woah! she’s really good! anyways, you’d be a good defense because you’re always ready to help someone in need, whether that’s physically or emotionally. that’s it. my brain hurts from saying nice things.

@agniikaii​​: kyle (kaail)

↳ general words: 

kyle you’re my favorite asian, other than my little irl asian bitch named after a fucking spice, and i love calling you kyle and making frat references that you don’t understand. you’re very funny and i really like horny hours because i get to see all of the hot men that you like, even if they’re blonde..ew. you’re twelve hours ahead of me, and that twelve more hours that you have to do calculus homework, and that sucks..deal with it ig. find that derivative!!

↳ team position: wing spiker

you’d 100% be on offense. you’re like hinata, you’d bounce around and just pop those balls down to the floor. you’re small and probably fast if you really tried?? i don’t know how online gym works, but i bet you’re killing it girlfriend! you go! keep those boys thirsty! i’m laughing at myself idk what else to say. you have an aggressive side sometimes, and i can just imagine you bringing it out on the court.

@pxnk-velvet​​​: angie

↳ general words:

angelina argentina anal michael. you are so very talented in the creativity it astounds me. you’re such a good artist and have so much potential as a writer it’s just, augh, so proud. you make me laugh when you say Periodt! with that peppa pig meme, and you always send it even when it makes no sense in the conversation and it just makes me giggle hehe. 

↳ team position: ace

i don’t know if you know what the ace does yet, but they’re basically the powerhouse of the team. you definitely DEFINITELY have an aggressive side, and we’ve seen it come out a couple times and you would be perfect for this position. mwah. just perfect. with you as our ace, we’d never have to worry about that stupid wall and you’d just be the best. that’s it. the best.

@councilspectres​​​​: my new wife (just married)

↳ general words: 

HELLO HANNAH. i don’t know if you’re ever going to see this, because you never saw my last one pain, anywho that doesn’t matter. what matters is you’re very nice and funny, also horse girl, and you pop in at fun times. i can’t wait to go on our honeymoon to wyoming and have a great time with those horses. love u.

↳ team position: teacher advisor

i don’t think you watch haikyuu, and this is obviously not an actual position on the team—but you give off such takeda energy it’s crazy. he’s such a nice guy and just wants the best for everyone, he’s always there for them when things get tough, but also doesn’t hover. you’d be the best teacher advisor, and all the other clubs would be jealous.

@probablydisgusting​​​​​: sophia

↳ general words: 

hi sophie. your dog is super cute and i added myself to the private story today, but besides that you are very VERY funny and i really enjoy listening to your tangents, because it feels like i’m not the only one who can talk forever. you were the very first person to interact in the original chat and that’s really cute and i miss those days even though the snap gc is much better.

↳ team position: pinch server

you definitely don’t watch haikyuu, but if you know anything about volleyball you’d know that the pinch server is someone that the entire team relies on to change up the game. they come in when the team is at their wits end and save the say, which is just like you when you randomly pop into the chat and entertain us! you’d be a fire pinch server and would cheer SO loudly from the sidelines.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! HAMILTON ARRIVED ON DISNEY+ A FEW DAYS AGO WHAAAAAAAAAT!!!?????

as you couldn't tell, I am IN LOVE with Hamilton! the musical got me into discovering the musical fandom! sure I was in love with Hairspray and musicals in general but Hamilton was my first actual music obsession!

-oml Hercules Mulligan's solo (O///_///O) and he sticks his tongue out too! he's a aggressive top hottie and I am living for it!!!

- what comes next was totally foreshadowing for when Trump becomes president. like, "when your people say they hate you, don't come crawling back to me"! like yo! foreshadowing or what??

-aw dear theodosia! my third favorite song! you know, ever since I heard this I wanted to name my child theodosia so that I could sing her this song as a lullaby.

-NO!!! JOHN LAURENS MY HUSBAND!!! T^T </3 I knew he was gonna die anyway cause I've listened to the sundtrack many times but still! and Alexander was so happy singing about his son and then he hears about John's death I'm- :'( I almost cried again during that song... you can probably tell that I love John Laurens..

-HOLY CRAP YO THERE'S AN ACTUAL RAP BATTLE!! XD WHAAAATT??? like Jefferson and Hamilton got them mics, they be all up in each other's face roasting each other like bro!

-"turn around, bend over I'll show you where my shoe fits!" OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH! GET ROASTED JEFFERSON BAM WHAT??

- lmao why the fnck do they have an grown a$$ man playing a 9 year old?? XD

-okay, I love the sister dynamic for Angelica and Eliza! they're so cute! and I like how no one questions that even though their races are different they're still related. and it bothers me that people nitpick about that. like leave them alone, they are sisters! periodt!

-oh no it's say no to this... I hate this song... I can't believe Hamilton had an affair with someone he doesn't even know! who cares if she's hot?? you're MARRIED!

-and wait... ain't that the actress who played Peggy in the last act?? sheesh no wonder she's so attractive!

-look at this dude saying "lord show me how to say no to this, I don't know how to say no to this"! LIKE BOI! just say no! tf?? it doesn't matter if she's a fncking model! if I was married to a kind hearted, gentle and just generally an amazing person Like Eliza, and a woman pulled me in their bed and said "stay~" I would've  been like "HAHA nope! peace out my guy, I'm already taken thank you very much and they do it to me better than you ever did! periodt!" and I would leave. it's that easy!

-"and her bodies screaming hell yes" BOI IF YOU DON'T KEEP YOUR D!CK IN YOUR PANTS AND GO HOME ALEXANDER I SWEAR TO FnCKING ALLAH......

-oh sh!t oh sh!t there's another rap battle! same people too... everyone take cover! seriously this is not a drill!

-damn! okay did not hear this yet?? uhm so.... Hamilton snapped. and not the good type of snapped too... the moment he was given a opportunity to speak he literally shouted "YOU MUST BE OUTTA YOUR GODDAMN MIND!" and when I tell you I shook....

-"daddy's callin'.." oKAY FIRST OF ALL HOW WRONG DOES THAT SOUND TO YOU??

-lol when Burr came on stage and started singing, Jefferson was so confused he was like "bruh the hell did you come from??" and I died! XD

-Eliza has been through many heartbreaks right now..

-oh this is my 5th favorite song. who lives who dies, who tells your story... I'm gonna cry again, aren't I?

I love this musical so much! no words can describe how much it means to me. so I suggest you listen to the soundtrack yourself, if you haven't and tell me how you feel about it. c:

1989

We are finally here, 1989 is my favorite album to date by Miss Taylor! Everything from the nostalgic feels to the deluxe tracks, lets get into this!

Highest score: 📸📸📸📸📸

1. Welcome to New York // 📸📸📸📸📸

There are so many good tracks on this record and I don’t skip a single tune, every song on here is special to me. This opener was something so fun and unexpected. Sounds like something you’d hear in a musical but mixed with Taylor’s swag. It’s about her experience moving to New York and it’s adorable and the perfect way to start of this album.

2. Blank Page // 📸📸📸📸📸

Listen. We all know about this song and all of its glory. Probably one of who most popular songs to date, every lyric in this is perfection. And the production, whaaaaat. Also, one of my favorite music videos she ever did! We all know what this ones about so shall we move on?

3. Style // 📸📸📸📸📸

Everything about Style is incredible. Starting with the production, holy shit how this song is catchy. You can’t help but to dance when the beat drops and the chorus plays and you just song at the top of your lungs. I’ve always thought this song was about Harry Styles and still do till this day. I mean, the title, hello! Such a bop!

4. Out Of the Woods // 📸📸📸📸📸

Definitely one of my favorite tracks on the album, this song is an eargasm. The production and metaphors in her lyrics are just so beautiful! I remember when she released this before the album came out, I was so obsessed and never got sick of it. Lyrically, she’s talking about a relationship that’s going well but doesn’t know exactly where their heading or what to call it. Like she’s stuck in limbo with this person. Another track I think is about Harry, just sayin. Love this one to pieces.

5. All You Had To Do Was Stay // 📸📸📸📸

Let me tell ya’ll, this was the song I used to despise. I didn’t connect to this song when I first listened to the album but wow how much I love this song now. It definitely grew on me. I really love the simple and sweet chorus and the “all you had to do was stay, STAY” will be stuck in your head for hours! She said when making this song, she had a dream where that park kept playing in her head. And now look!

6. Shake It Off // 📸📸📸

Not that I think Shake It Off’s a bad track but if I have to choose, it’s my least favorite track on the record. Like I told y’all before, her first singles to me are never it for me. I don’t understand her process for picking the first song that’s going to represent her album because girl, this ones not it. It’s a fun song and quite catchy and the lyrics speak for themself. She’s chuckin dueces to the haters and if you don’t like it, BYE. Not a terrible song, I listen to it every now and then.

7. I Wish You Would // 📸📸📸📸

The title sounds like she’s giving serious attitude! Then you listen and you’re like, ohhh. I’ve always loved the production of this song, ecspecially the chorus! Lyrics are pretty straight forward, she talks about how if she could go back in time, she would’ve changed how she handled some things in a certain past relationship. It’s a solid bop for sure!

8. Bad Blood // 📸📸📸📸

Rawrrr, this is probably the biggest diss track on the album. We all know it’s about Katy Perry but hey, they’re all cool now. Afterglow on Lover exists because of her I’m pretty sure and I’m thankful. This song goes in! The production is pretty sweet as well. And the music video!?!? Crushed it! But the radio overplayed this one to the ground! You couldn’t go anywhere without hearing this one. It’s goodie though.

9. Wildest Dreams // 📸📸📸📸

Production wise, probably the most beautiful song on the album. I love Taylor’s voice in here, she has this signature falsetto she does that lingers and I’m obsessed with it. She definitely does it a lot more in her newer music. The lyrics are pretty sad, talking about a relationship that she knows will never work, except in her wildest dreams. My boo Scott Eastwood plays her counterpart in the music video, need I say more?

10. How You Get The Girl // 📸📸📸

Picture a group of younger girls holding hairbrushes and dancing with each other until their bodies are tired. This is the song they’re listening too! The song is cute for sure! It’s an ode to men on how to get the girl you want by following Taylor’s simple instructions! I wonder if it worked for anyone...

11. This Love // 📸📸📸📸📸

One of my favorites on the album and the most stripped down, this song is absolutely beautiful. The way she sings about this resurrected love she had for someone just makes you swoon with tears in your eyes. It stands out from being so different production wise, but it’s the hidden gem on the album for sure. Love this one.

12. I Know Places // 📸📸📸

Ryan Tedder from Onerepublic produced WTNY and this track on this album. While I prefer the opener of the album, this song is definitely the most eccentric off the album. I love her use of metaphors in this song, where she talks about how she knows places to go when it’s time to hide from the media and the paparazzi when she’s just trying to have a nice time with her lover. It’s mystical and cool, and I dig it.

13. Clean // 📸📸📸📸📸

This is my favorite track on the album, periodt. So many things about this song just sit right with me. First, she worked on this track with Imogen Heap- who’s incredible and who’s sound really showed it’s wonderful face in here. Her background vocals also provide such an alluring sound to Taylor’s whimsical falsettos, you can’t help but to fall in love. And the lyrics are simple and pure. She’s telling a story about someone who brought a lot of negativity in her life and how she learned from it and is wiping her slate clean. Something we all can relate to. Such a beautiful way to close out the album.

There are three bonus tracks as well on the Target Edition that I’ll add as well...

Wonderland // 📸📸📸📸📸

A glorious and wonderfully produced song about her lover and them finding complete bliss just being with each other. Definitely would’ve replaced this with Shake It Off and would’ve been okay with that. It’s a really neat song with awesome instrumentals and Taylor’s voice sounds wonderful in it.

You Are In Love // 📸📸📸📸

So this song sounds like This Love Part II. It’s beautiful and Taylor is pretty much giving ya the tea on signs of when you’re in love when in a relationship. It’s very cute and could probably be used in a rom com of some sort. I think it too, is good enough to replace SIO, but at least we got this as a bonus!

New Romantics // 📸📸📸

So this one is tricky. I like it to a point. It’s for sure my least favorite bonus track and doesn’t really connect well with the album, which is why I think she left it off. During her concert, she played this and I much preferred it live. It’s a fun song but the replay value is up there like most of the album is.

So overall, 1989 has my heart. As a whole, cohesively, it’s my favorite record that I could listen to from start to finish without skipping much of anything! What do y’all think?
