#taylor swift this is your fault!

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

Unlike his dad, he does need his glasses, but his brother needed them more for their little switcheroo

Follow the Leader (Page 61) [Link]: Scary, if it’s okay with you, I think Normal should be the leader for this part. (Because it’s his dad.) [“Sparrow”] Why don’t I show you how the pizza is made back here? [Normal]: Sounds good! - [Scary]: Of course it’s okay with me! I never wanted to be the leader. I’m the rebeller! [Taylor]: (Spoken like a true leader!) - [Link]: Those least likely to lead who want to lead are the best leaders. [Taylor]: (Exactly, yes. We all know that.) - [“Sparrow”]: The fuck did you just say??? [Normal]: Can you guys shut the fuck up so we can save my dad!
Parent Trapped (Page 62) [Normal]: I’m- It’s just so screwed up! And Dad, this is all your fault! [“Sparrow”]: (Uh…) Yeah, sure. It’s all my fault. I’m stupid. I’m not as smart as my brother, and I’m kind of a hippie, and I didn’t prepare you properly. - [“Sparrow”]: I am being judged? If it wasn’t for what your Uncle Lark did, you would have grown up here. [Effect]: Scratch Scratch Scratch - [Normal]: So that makes it okay? I mean, like-! And you-! [Effect]: Scratch [Scary]: (Woah) Your dad has a tattoo of his own name? That’s cool. [Normal]: Wait, what? - [Normal]: UNCLE LARK?! [Lark]: (Sigh…)
Surprise!!! (Page 63) [Taylor]: All right chefs. I need joy, surprise, unrepentant murder, and uh, mushrooms? (Ugh) [Link]: SURPRISE! [Dice roll, Link]: Dexterity 17 - [Link]: (I’m sorry) [Ricky Click]: That’s not where the memories are stored. No. You have to use it here. [Effect]: Same brain activating [Text on box]: Syringes - [Dice Roll, Normal]: Dexterity 6 [Normal and Scary]: SURPRISE! [Dice Roll, Scary]: Dexterity 9 - [Taylor]: What are you guys doing? [Effect]: Catch! Catch!
Happy Birthday (Page 64) [Tilt]: I see in time and space, and I saw that today is the day I died. I wanted to make sure I met the next generation and helped you as much as I can. [Link]: How do you die? [Tilt]: A heart attack from the pizza. - [Normal]: Don’t eat the pizza then! [Effect]: Munch [Tilt]: I want the pizza though! [Link]: But then you’ll die! - [Scary, singing]: Happy happy birthday, Today’s the day you die! I hate to say this very quick goodbye! You’re gonna have a heart attack, On a pizza pie! Happy happy birthday, Today’s the day you die! [Tilt]: (Hurk!) [Link]: (Help!) - [Taylor]: WAIT! Those memories might still be fresh though, we can extract them. [Scary]: Yeah! [Scene]: No! Stop! She knows everything!

I hate the current music industry. I hate it so much. I hate that artists have to release half of their album as singles before it officially comes out. I hate that they have to spend literal years touring around the world. I hate that they rely so heavily on merch. You get the vinyls in two colors. Three colors. Five colors. Eight colors. Every few months, they put out a new color. You've got exclusive bundles with a poster. One with a poster and a pin. One with a poster and a pin and an alternative cover. You've got figurines. You've got 459 t-shirts. 274 hoodies. 156 tank tops. Bikinis. Bath towels. Water bottles. Tons of plastic. Worldwide shipping. When do we stop.

Rio night 2.
The day that she originally planned to do the concert was sunday. when she cancelled, people booed her. so many people booed her. she could hear from her dressing room. then the very same people are cheering for her on monday, when the show was rescheduled.
that’s not being a true fan. you don’t boo someone because they care about your safety. have any of them even watched miss americana? they should know how she feels about people booing her. that sucks. sure they cheered for her later, but i’m sure that taylor didn’t believe it in her heart.

An open letter to Taylor Swift
I tweeted but I know Taylor is on Tumblr and I really hope she sees this because I need her to.
Taylor I can't even imagine to feel what you must be feeling like right now, coming off the high that was Argentina, and the huge welcome you received in Brazil for all of this to then happen but please please know that none of what happened is your fault and you did absolutely everything you could in that situation. You are the greatest performer of our generation and you didn't even compromise that performance while you checked on fans and got them water while we could all see that you yourself were also not okay. We love you so much and the venue did you a horrible disservice. I'm so sorry that certain fans reacted poorly to the postponement of night 2. I know you know it was what needed to happen. I know you mourn for the loss of that young woman.
Your heart has never faltered in the 16 years I've been a fan of yours listening to beautiful eyes on my Walkman in my parents barn or hearing our song on the radio (of that same barn lol). You have made millions of lives better by existing in this world and it devastates me not only what happened via circumstances beyond your control but also that you might be holding yourself accountable for this. Celebrity accountability is becoming increasingly rare so you remain an anomaly and demonstrate in your day to day life what a good person you are but please honey, give yourself a break. You work so so so hard to bring us countless shows and albums and new music and we love that from you and I never want to live in a world where I don't have a new taylor swift song to look forward to playing on repeat but it is fair of you to put us second and put yourself and your family and your personal life first. Mental health is not talked about enough anymore I know miss Americana opened that curtain a little bit but alot of people don't realize mental health struggles don't just disappear because you're always seen smiling. The posts of upset fans in Rio make me so sad for you because that is not a true indication of this fandom and the billion fans that love you and im not even exaggerating when i say I think you do have a billion fans. Maybe 999 million 🫶🏼.
One stadium of sad, overheated, emotionally taxed people is such a small slice of the swifites that truly want you to be happy overall because of all the joy you've brought to us over the years. I sincerely believe the world is a better place with you and your music in it but even if there was no more music I still want you to be here and be happy and safe. I love you taylor and I really hope this message finds you.

thinking about how so long, london is in many ways about how hard it is to love someone with depression. how you will always want what's best for them but can no longer hold them up because it'll crush you too if you let it
