YOU’RE ON YOUR OWN KID (redesign) — inspired by The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan - front / back

[jackleopard]

13, 69, 87!

13. The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived - Taylor Swift -> Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead? / Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed? / Were you writing a book? Were you a sleeper cell spy?

69. Villain - Maisie Peters -> Oh, I'm out my mind and I said some shit / But I miss you more than I meant any of it / Whoa, and isn't that just sad?

87. All Things Must Pass - George Harrison -> tbh just “all things must pass” is the perfect lyric to me, but I could also say I love Seems my love is up / And has left you with no warning

it's wrapped season!! send me a number between 1-100 and i'll give you the corresponding song from my top songs and my favorite lyric from it ✨

[ohgaylor]

c(o)unt(r)y reputation hands doooown!!! (but every single one is top tier incredible, that one just hits me extra hard in the heart) maybe my favorite thing I’ve ever seen ever

[kaylor]

not to mention midnights is a terribly boring album title like if it had been called anything else i maybe wouldn't dunk on it so much

[honeybabymp3]

you making that Idol post after I just had an extended internal monologue about how WEIRD it is that female pop stars whose output and persona were largely controlled by their label are shamed and dehumanized for making "lesser" art without ever receiving any pity for the insane structures they grew up in..... Brain connection moment. I think #freebritney changed this a bit but we still have miles to go when it comes to recognizing how destructive and plain evil these "men in suits mold a girl to their liking" machineries are. And it's spitting into the face of all these women to make a show that essentially says "omg women are held back from being sexy :(" SUFFER. We can talk all day about how the Disney purity machine messed with the sexual expression of their young stars but i have the suspicion that this is also not a convo mr. Levinson would be interested in.

brain connection moment !! i've been kind of stuck thinking about this cause , lol , the other day i was looking for pictures of hozier and taylor at victoria's secret, and i mean, this is soooo basic so idk why, when i saw a picture of them with the models and the other performers, with ed sheeran also in a suit and ariana also in lingerie it just made me sooooo mad. honestly i wasn't even thinking about how both taylor and ariana have been in the public eye since they were so young, and like, this is not to say or minimize how boys in the entertainment industry are also sexualized and objectified for adult audiences, it's just that those specific pictures at the vsfs made the difference in expectations so stark it made me SO mad. and then THIS fucking show.

i'm not 100% sure i understand specifically what you're referring to (and if you feel like typing up some of your monologue i WOULD like to read it. as much as i'm fascinated by this stuff it also freaks me out too look at it too closely myself haha so i always love to read your thoughts) but yeah there is like an endless pool of interesting directions you can take the relationship between popstars - who are selling an image - their team - who needs to find a balance between taking care of them (out of genuine concern or just for the sake of them Performing) and creating an image that sells - and their art - cause good art doesn't necessarily = the art you want to make isn't necessarily = what makes money or reaches audiences. and artists that are directed into making a specific thing that Sells but are then ridiculed for this - for giving the people what they want. and like you mention the disney purity thing - it's obviously very complicated and needs to be explored with sensitivity and care, and, you know, over longform such as a six hours miniseries, but lol. out of EVERYTHING to choose these angles. the fucking nerve. how revealing it is about the way you view women in the industry. and a plot twist (?) about how she was in control the entire time (??) when indeed this show specifically was supposed to be directed by a woman who allegedly was both set to fail by the studio and fired after almost finishing the show. ok.

hi hi hi, how are you today? how is you day going? 💛

I can't believe this year is over, especially in the swiftie side of tumblr it feels a lot has happened that my brain cannot even comprehend 🤯

would you mind sharing with me three things you are grateful for from this year? :)

also, would you mind sharing what were your favorite blogs this year? Just trying to spread some positivity ;)

(if you answer this ask, could you please tag it #sunlightanon?)

- ☀️

yeah, it really has been A Year™

i'm grateful for finally getting an internship after two whole ass years of searching LOL. i'm also thankful for ~my real friends~ especially since so many people i was closed to ended up being two-faced snakes. which is lovely. finally, i'm thankful for my mom ❤

some of the blogs i've particularly enjoyed following (from the top of my head) are @maryoliveoil @cages-boxes-hunters-foxes @evermoredeluxe @littleoblivions @jakeperalta @styie @dress @cruel-style @deathbyathousandcuts @tolerateit @missegyptiana @seegoldendaylight @bybdolan
