The Tortured Poets Department is a great reminder that women don't owe the world pretty. Taylor Swift doesn't owe anyone an easily digestible pretty pop album wrapped in a bow with short songs you can make TikToks to. She's allowed to present something raw, uncomfortable, and vulnerable to the world.

“What’s made her cry like that??”

“I look through peoples windows by Taylor Swift”

i couldn’t have found a normal artist to enjoy it just had to be this freak

People already ranking songs when I haven't processed a single thing... as if Taylor's works don't marinate... I simply can't serve raw chicken

“I’m having his baby! No I’m not, but you should see your faces!”

im sure lots of people will listen to TTPD and discount it because she talks about matty in it (and ofc people have their valid issues with him, but im not gonna go into that), but the whole lead up to the album has been “we’re investigating,” and imo a lot of us took that as her saying “we’re investigating why my relationship ended” whereas the album is actually about “we’re investigating this caricature of a girl who went through something life-changing, and she has apparently gone crazy” and she’s basically done a public autopsy of herself; something that the media/fans/public have done since the beginning, but this time around she was like “i’ll do it to myself.”

hence, the album aesthetic feels so sterile too imo. she’s trying to distance herself from the subject but!!!!!! she is the subject. and in conclusion, i think what she’s really putting down is “the summary of the investigation of this girl is that she went insane because of what happened to her, but it’s hopefully gonna be okay”

sidenote: i think what we need to take away from the album is to… let her live…

Dear Tessa!

If you had to choose your favourite time of day (imagine that you're never tired and don't need sleep), which one would it be and why?

Dear Annon!

If I had to choose a time of day as my favourite it would go from dusk until sunrise particularly midnight to about 3 am in particular. I tend to be more of a night owl due to insomnia so I usually see those hours with ease but there’s something just so peaceful about sneaking out of the dorms to take a walk by yourself to reflect on the previous day and reflect into myself and who I want to be and how to get there. I suppose it’s just the solitary nature of midnight that resonates most with me.

Real fucking talk for a minute- does anyone else go from “oh it’s fine” to “I’m actually going to kill them”

Cause my ex FROM OVER A YEAR AGO NOW is so unhealthily obsessed with me he’s going round telling EVERYONE i slept with him and slut shaming me AGAIN when I never even slept with the bastard (due to trauma) like if I see this guy in actually going to put his fucking ass in hospital like grow the fuck up we’ve been done and no contact for ages fuck off mate
