I will defend Taylor Swift like I would defend my big sister because she’s been protecting my emotional wellbeing in the way no one else could. Her music kept me fighting another day, got me through the night I thought that I might die.
#the love she infused into every aspects of the craft#her unreal work ethics for what she’s passionate about#the sacrifice she made for becoming a public person#all for the sake of people’s hearing her music#it’s not her celebrity that made her special to me#I genuinely love her music#her lyrics spoke to things I’m too scared to say#she showed me it’s alright to feel these things#she made me strong#for all the bad things said about her#would’ve left me broken and blue#but there she goes so perfectly. the kind of flawless I wish I could be#except I know she’s not flawless. no one human could be#and that’s why I admire and respect her for letting us in to see her darkest nights#and share her brightest days#I mean it’s the thing I admire in anyone. that admission of vulnerability#but she put them in songs aka the mode of communication I vibe with the most#so of course I’m going to root for her#she’s my argumentative antithetical dream girl#taylor swift#I just love her and it’s a love letter kind of day

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

listen i love kath and will defend her until the day i die but… what do you MEAN you need to know that he didn’t cave for the money you were literally THERE
like she HEARD her dad say "mark my words, boy. defy me and i'll have you and every one of your friends locked up in the refuge."
she was THERE when jack was dragged off to be forcibly locked in a cellar overnight
"i dont understand, if you were willing to go to jail for those boys, how could you turn your back on them now?" girl what do you mean you don't understand what is there to understand
#genuinely if someone has an explanation i would love to see it#bc i am PERPLEXED#i love her but this has always annoyed me#newsies#newsies fandom#newsies musical#livesies#katherine plumber#katherine pulitzer#jack kelly

I’m taking The Night We Met until people learn how to use it correctly. sorry I’m gatekeeping now. Just because the ship is tragically doomed doesn’t mean it’s tnwm. If they’re not worse off and regretting every second of it while still mourning the love they had then it’s not the Night We Met. You’re looking for Love Like Ghosts. or In the Wind. or I Lied or When the Night is Over or Drops in the Lake or like any other Lord Huron tragic love song. It’s like the main thing they write about. pick any other song. I refuse to let yall keep disrespecting Frankie Lou like this.
#/joking joking#but i am genuinely tired of seeing tnwm posts in the tag. girl love like ghosts is RIGHT THERE#this is now propaganda. listen to other lh songs. ooooo you want to listen to love like ghosts you wanna hear emerald star so bad#there’s like. two relationships it’s ever fit and it’s Buck and Lee + Frankie and her bitch of ex#that’s because they were written FOR the music#maybe three. I’ll give the good omens bitches a pass they’ve got shit going on with the angels and the demons#frankie died for this at least use her song correctly#surprise its ALSO propaganda for the lore. you want to know who frankie is you want to know who those bitches in the music video are oooo#lord huron#the night we met

Finished TGAAC around 2 1/2 weeks ago but only finished the doodles today. but still, here ya go!
#caluuart#art#dgs spoilers#dgs2 spoilers#tgaa spoilers#tgaa2 spoilers#ace attorney#the great ace attorney#tgaa#dgs2#not tagging characters bc it's a lot#RAMBLE TIME. so ever since I finished dgs2 I have been listening to the soundtracks and MAN these bang so much#esp as a person who plays the piano and likes music. it's just. good. yeah. some of these do give me psychological dmg tho lmaoo#like kazuma's nocturne theme or his prosecutor theme. or the secret trial theme.... the partners - the game is afoot! theme.... I am normal#WHICH SPEAKING OF! man I love the sholmes + mikotoba partner twist so much even if i got a bit spoiled about it. i just think they're neat.#The partners of all time I think.#Also also the found family!?!?!? I am A SUCKER for found family. they fed me so well.#funny thing was the barok character development surprised me despite the fact that I also expected it since the first game lolol.#I do think he's an interesting character and probably one of the best character development in the game. And that I find his design cool.#oh yeah I didn't draw it but when I saw that albert mentioned that barok is “the darling of the van zieks family” I was genuinely like.#huh? wdym. like man at the time “van zieks” and “little darling” feels wrong in the same sentence. that was until I saw his pre-#-trauma pictures n well. albert isn't wrong. which was a slight surprise to me.#In conclusion: I liked it a lot. and now occupies parts of my brain along with my other brainrots.#They fight for priority in my brain whenever I try to sleep or disassociate lol. Well at least there's more material to think about.#off topic time: arlecchino animation. for the sake of the tag's length I'll just say a few things:#I am very very interested in her story and oh my god father.#My brain has stopped braining now; good night my fellows

Just opened Northanger Abbey for the first time, and I'm loving the tone it sets, but goddamn:
"[Catherine's father was] a very respectable man, though his name was Richard..."
#some Richard did that woman wrong#but for real I love how hard she's skewering classic melodramatic tropes right off the bat#'her mother didn't even die in childbirth with her for god's sake what kind of heroine is that'#literary ladies#I can genuinely hear Helen Mirren narrating this opening montage to cheery music a la the Barbie movie

I know the show kinda wants me to dislike Shakespeare taking over and making big changes behind Anne’s back, and like yeah that’s a dick move 100% don’t get me wrong.
…but…he did give us Frankie/May, one of the best act 1 finale’s I’ve ever seen, the himbo bicon legend himself Romeo Montague, and is the reason the DuBois family band gets back together and performs Everybody, so like…I can’t be that mad about his choices tbh.
#like he kinda gave us a lot of the shows best moments ngl#I love anne and I genuinely feel sorry for her BUT I do have to acknowledge that shakespeare popped off#& juliet#&juliet#&juliet musical#& juliet musical#and juliet#and juliet musical#juliet musical#musicals#theatre#musical theatre#broadway#bway#theater

I will never make this because it would be for an audience of one (me) but ever since reading "If we Were Villains" (story about serious drama kids in college who perform shakespeare and deal with a murder) I have been entertaining the thought of a crack fic crossover with High School Musical The Musical The Series where the staff decides they will no longer put on shakespeare after the tragic accident that happened at Thanksgiving, because Shakespeare plays would only increase the tension and drama. So they hire Ms. Jen who decides their spring play will actually be High School Musical (which exists in the 90s in this universe) and it ruins the vibe so much that everyone gives up on being dark and mysterious because they're universally pissed at Ms Jen for making them learn choreoraphed basketball dancing.
#if we were villains is actually genuinely good and has actual literary worth and pulls from shakespeare in an intelligent meaningful way#but unfortunately all i can do is comedy so this is the only fan content i have to offer :(#THE THING IS iwwv is just hsmtmts if it hsmtmts was good and also they committed crimes#they utilize the same parallel of casting choices with real life drama which I love#umm so casting: Meredith would be Sharpay Obvi. I think it would be really funny if James was cast as Ryan bc they hate eachother and would#have to pretend to be siblings working together. And I think ashley tisdale and Lucas Gabreel actually didn't get along when filming#also i love the thought of Ms Jen looking at James and going “i know what you are”#HOWEVER it would be more interesting if james was Chad to Oliver's Troy (which is really just reversing their Romeo and Juliet moment)#bc chad is like nooo don't do theater... stick with me and do basketball... but it would be Coded Subtextually#Unfortunately Wren would be typecast as Gabriella and I don't think that would cause drama bc I don't believe James actually liked her!#I think it was comp het bc she was very sweet and nonthreatening as opposed to Meredith's big flirting energy so she would be a “safe” crus#lets lean into that actually. this gives Wren a chance to have a personality (bc I enjoy this book but it is not good at fleshing out women#So oliver and Wren spend more time together and kind of talk about James a little and Wren is like yeah James is very sweet#and I like him but it feels so hard to get him to feel comfortable with me... i guess he's just closed off and doesn't talk much#we also get to see more of her personality and interests maybe she's like I relate to gabriella because I also like to Read :) feminism#and oliver is like Hmm That Is Not My Experience With Him perhaps our bond is deeper and James does like me Hm#And then Meredith can flirt with him as Sharpay and James gets pissed and in character gets very intense about how Troy can't join THEATER#that's why he's upset and sad bc sharpay represents theater and only that reason and nothing else and he isn't in love with oliver At All#Alexander can be Ryan now since James is Chad (and he's also Gay) and Filippa can be Kenzie bc they're both queer coded#Anyway at rehearsal one day Meredith and James and Oliver are having their fighting over troy moment and then Meredith stops and is like#wait guys. This musical is so freaking stupid. why are we even doing this#and their mutual frustration at their art being turned into a farce is enough to bond them together and they're like#we need to focus on our REAL enemy: ms Jen#and then they hatch a scheme and it's probably like. They dump a bucket of fake blood on her at opening night a la carrie#and then put on their own rebellious production... it still has to be a musical because i like musicals#families with children are in the audience and they're like OK FOLKS! HERE'S ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW!#if we were villains#iwwv#hsmtmts#high school musical the musical the series

obviously the way they handled ricky’s disability in like every single version was so bad but i can’t stop thinking about the live performance that i saw where they straight up did not say a SINGLE THING ABOUT IT at least in other versions it’s acknowledged (kind of as a punchline but at least acknowledged) in the csulb show i saw mischa just takes his crutches away during uranium suite and ricky starts singing and dancing along…they literally acknowledged it 0% the people who hadn’t ever seen it before were probably so confused why this man had crutches for approximately 30 seconds then another character just grabs them and puts them backstage for them to never be mentioned ever again. like what. insanity.
#ride the cyclone#rtc musical#ricky potts#they really fucked that one up#it was really sad cause it was a really good production too#their noel was SO GOOD#i think about his performance every day i would pay $500 to see just him perform noel’s lament again cause genuinely it was so beautiful#their constance too😳😳😳#i think i’m in love with her she was so pretty ohmygod#and she played constance so well i loved it#but they FUCKED UP ricky’s character#like how do you fuck it up more than it’s already fucked up
