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

i think it’s the cutest thing in the world that our generations way of showing love to one another has become friendship bracelets. what’s that? it’s a simple piece of jewelry that may not be glamorous and shiny, but you put time and effort into making it just so you can give them to other people simply to make them happy? and it’s customized to say something that symbolizes the fandom we’re both in, because though we don’t know eachother or likely have much in common we have a shared love of one small thing and that’s able to connect us? i will protect it with my entire being and take it with me to the grave
#friendship bracelets#it’s actually the sweetest thing#and ik it mostly started with taylor#as it should#but the fact that it’s spread to so many different things#like fans giving noah schnapps a bunch of friendship bracelets recently#and that’s one of the best things!#celebrities always love getting them so much#because they can tell that we put effort into them just out of sheer joy#and the desire to make eachother happy#gen z is incredibly wholesome#i love us#gen z culture#i saw a security guard at niall horan had a friendship bracelet and i asked him about it#and he was like#idk why they gave me one but i love it#and he wore it all night#it’s so beautiful

I’m actually a huge Olivia cooke fan and have been since 2017 when i saw thoroughbreds in theaters with my moviepass and it was excellent it was transformative still one of my favorite movies of all time … everyone saw it right? if not next time you’re all at my place we can sit and watch it
#Perhaps with horse themed snacks#actually no thats a little macabre even for me#we can do doomed friendship snacks instead or make fragile friendship bracelets or something :—)

not to be angry on main but to the person who was very loudly complaining about "just for once" and started making fun of me for handing out bracelets in the queue for starkid. why the fuck were you there
#SORRY I KNOW IT'S BEEN TWO DAYS#BUT IT REALLY PISSED ME OFF#I started handing out bracelets and they were immediately very loudly like#'ugh fuckin friendship bracelets are so dumb are you a child'#which is like. okay#it's cool if the bracelets aren't your thing but i'd love it if you could not make fun of me#while standing RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME#the audacity#also how dare you insult just for once#kidding obviously ppl can dislike what they want#it was more the being unnecessarily mean when we're all clearly super excited that pissed me off#my brother in christ i'm sorry you have no whimsy in your life#anyway#i loved starkid innit and i ignored them and moved on but i'll be honest#it pissed me tf off#and it shocks me that someone so bitter and nasty and negative could even be in this fandom#sorry#not to rant on main but#star rambles#not gonna tag this with starkid innit bc we don't need negativity in the tag frankly#but i did want to expel this from my brain lol

i'm watching mobile suit gundam: iron-blooded orphans, and i'm Obsessed that the show sets up a love triangle between atra, mikazuki, and kudelia, and then almost immediately resolves it with polyamory
#personal#keeping it fun and funky fresh#matty watches#atra's like Ooooh i'm jealous that kudelia & mikazuki have a thing.#[two episodes later] well. since me & kudelia both have feelings for mikazuki we need to become best friends#[two episodes later] atra makes kudelia a ''friendship bracelet'' identical to the one she made for mikazuki#& the one she wears herself#so that wherever each of them is the others can always be with them#matty watches gundam

unpopular opinion the Maya models don’t look bad at all. But at the same time the only ones that look good to me are the ones in darker clothing, with darker skin, etc etc because YOU CANT TELL THERES NO FUCKING TEXTURING!!!!!!!!!
#rwde#also mostly talking about how the Maya models looked in v4-5 and somewhat 6 because#Wow the moment they put in that really chunky shading that looks ugly. IT LOOKED UGLY#characters like ilia looked good to me. no im not saying that cuz im her bff bestie forever friendship bracelet im genuine#adams design fucking sucked but I will not lie he looked good. and he looked fucking stellar in the short with his old design.#though again. that short had bloom lighting. and bloom lighting clutches all#they made his horns look like horns! yes we lost the mask texturing in the war but also WE GAVE HIS ASS ACTUAL HORN LOOKING HORNS!!!!!#ok enough stroking the only two characters I talk about on this account.#nora looked good! she wore bright colors yes but she also had that blacker jacket.#Ruby’s design also sucked but imo i feel it translated decently into Maya!#but then we get to v7 and you can noticeably tell stuff starts looking shitty outside of the backgrounds.#They smoothed out the girls faces. Will not lie it sometimes looks like they just copied Ruby’s base four times#and only editted the busy size or height to make the girls. The shading makes stuff look bad. The bloom lighting is gone.#Obviously I’m not wanting to blame the animators or modelers as they are for sure overworked to make this.#And as A 3D animator and modeler myself I do genuinely hope these people can be treated well.#But sadly just…. the models after v7 ain’t it for me

something there has not been enough discourse about is how many letters we're going to have to use for the titles of ttpd songs when we make friendship bracelets for them.
#or how ugly the acronyms are lol#need a community fund so we can buy extra t s & e letters#ttpd#so make the friendship bracelets

on a more serious note. literally the only thing nesta wants in the entire world is some peace and fucking quiet
#can we just let her live#she's minding her business. she's just a girl. she doesn't have any money#leave her alone!!!!!!!!!!#let her read her books and make her valkyrie friendship bracelets and braid cassian's hair in peace is that too much to ask (apparently yes

unfortunately all the evidence points to me still being attracted to my friend
#personal#havent seen him in a while but i did today and. well!#i can't use any descriptive words other than attractive. hes just very attractive. to me.#i need to make him laugh because it sounds very nice#there's also some gender envy to it. i need to grow facial hair NOW!!!!#he's probably straight tho#like i havent asked him but the signs are pointing in that direction#doesn't really matter i dont even wanna date him i just have feelings#im a very silly flavour of aro#show me your pc games boy#also i watched the fly. good movie 👍#'can we watch a normal movie for once?' no :) 80s horror only#some mild homoeroticism in showing your buddy how to make friendship bracelets maybe. hands. idk.#i need to channel this gay energy into finishing this fucking drawing i have on the stove#some of my fictional crushes are insane but when it comes to real men i just like normal average looking guys who like math and computers

"ed shot izzy in the leg because izzy blamed the poisonous atmosphere on the ship on ed's love for stede, as if it was something bad, when it was in fact good and made ed happy"
god help me. literally what are those people watching the show with because it sure as hell can't be their eyes. ed shot izzy for talking shit about his pure and restorative love for stede. ed "fuck you, stede bonnet" teach. ed "freezes when izzy mentions a part of stede's catchphrase and goes to threaten the crew with a gun as izzy follows him stammering that he did not mean to mention The Previous Owner Of This Vessel" teach. this ed. the same guy who literally went krakenmode after stede abandoned him and had all of his things tossed off the ship -- along with the crew, "his playthings". ed "you're not a fucking mermaid >:(" teach.
THIS ED. shooting izzy to say "you're wrong and you're fired, loving stede was GOOD actually". ??????????????
#shrimp thoughts#what's going on in this club. is it the water? it has to be something#also i genuinely am unable to understand how people can still think the pink robe wearing songwriting and talent show organizing ed was GOO#he WASN'T HEALING. he wasn't being himself! he was adopting the thing he thought were stede -- fancy fabric! Healthy™ communication!#'why are we even pirates? we should do a talent show!' -- to distract himself from his own pain! what are you people ON#if ed's true self was a pink silk femme songwriter then WHY would he embrace it AFTER and ONLY after stede has left him at the altar?#metaphorically? do you people genuinely think that ed was super fine after stede just fucking disappeared into the night after his#confession? that he was fine n peachy to Talk It Through with his crew? that he was in his right mind when he told basically total stranger#who still knew him as The Blackbeard to just call him ed? ????????????????? GUYS. WHAT.#and ngl izzy was sorta right to blow the fuck up at ed. the way he did it wasn't good and it's clear izzy's response to traumatic emotional#events is to just process it quietly on your own and move on because there's work to do so he's NOT well equipped to deal with baby's first#heartbreak but dear godddddd piracy was their JOB it was how they earned money and supplies to LIVE. you can't live if you quit your#job to make friendship bracelets and give each other cute makeovers all day! how is that a controversial statement!#but then people are still convinced cottagecore retirement is 100% going to be the endgame so. what am i expecting here

#i’m kind of really heartbroken right now#so i had tickets to the hot freaks concert and went tonight—which i don’t mind posting on here because i live several hours away#so basically i drove to the venue for several hours and stopped like once for food#it was my understanding that windsor was opening and then the hot freaks and then the happy fits i guess but i didn’t know the exact times#we were running a bit late bc of the road trip and walked in at 7:25 (the show started at 7) and i got to see the tail end of ‘boyfriend’#& i was like ‘oh okay i just missed their first song’ but then they walked off stage and my heart dropped. i missed everything#and yeah it’s on me because i must have had a misunderstanding about how the show worked#i’d never even heard of a show where an act performs for 20-25 minutes unless it’s like a variety show or something#i did cry about it already and just tried to have a good rest of the night since we’d already driven for hours#i got to meet the band at the merch table which was really cool and they gave me a free signed CD & sticker & friendship bracelet because—#they felt bad for me. which was very sweet (i also bought a shirt)#i know i should be grateful i was even able to go to the concert. and i still had fun but part of me will always be heartbroken#because financially/geographically it’s not smart to go to another show even further away just to see a 25 minute set when i’ve already got#the merch & all. plus i can listen to them on Spotify#i can only hope they come to a location closer to where i live#but there’s no guarantee because they’re so underground. they only resurfaced because of stupid tiktok & they’re only popular enough to be—#half of an opening act. so they could potentially never go on tour again#if i had more of a platform i would boost their music more but i don’t#i know it’ll be okay. it’s just a lot of things have been going shitty lately and i thought this would make me feel better and it just—#went to shit#tw vent#rose.txt
