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

Controversial opinion but AJR makes absolute bops that people only love to hate so intensely compared to other much worse bands because they're still steeped in cringe culture and the genuine emotional vulnerability makes them uncomfortable. They want their "honest lyrics" cloaked in ten layers of metaphor and detachment. Also AJR is Jewish art and I'll die on this hill.
#music talk#''it's because they're tiktok popular'' a lot of bands are tiktok popular why do you have a conniption about ajr specifically#'it's because they're generic radio pop' ajr are out here doing some of the most genuinely unique experimental production styles in pop#why don't you go on tirades about taylor swift or imagine dragons why is it ajr that makes you see red#they don't even try to pretend to be rock like imagine dragons does they're pretty much just solidly pop and they're good at it#ajr

being a girl is getting a lil high and turning on music that you can cry sing to while thinking about your ex who did you so wrong even though you’re literally the happiest you’ve ever been and don’t miss him at all at all at allllll!!!!!
#hey i hope it’s sooo shitty in the black dog btw#why wasn’t i good enough#i hate that he makes me ask that#why is he doing all the things i wanted him to with her#if he’s capable why didn’t he want to for me#i am sooo thankful for music#bc when gracie abrams said and you look stupid going out if she’s got a pulse she meets your standards now…#and when she said AND ALL I EVER DID WAS CONSIDER YOU UNTIL ALL I COULD DO WAS CONSIDER ME#and when she said you really thought you would get what you wanted#and when taylor swift said does it feel alright to not know me??#and when gracie said bit the bullet didn’t hurt but i still hate the image of you kissing her…#like i’m over him why does it bother me so much he’s moved on#oh maybe it’s bc it’s with the girl he told you he was in love with all throughout high school#i’m just glad B came along when he did#lol me when i remember i was technically still in a relationship when we first met#hehehe oopsies :3#i’m just a girl!!!#plus i was already planning on breaking up with him after he didn’t get me anything for my bday not even a card#so like i was practically single hehe#anyway time to stop feeling sad for myself bc i have a hot ass dilf who is unbelievably perfect in every way for me#B - i love you!

tag game: five songs on repeat lately
Tagged by @theindefinitearticle
sorrow - the national as everyone knows from the posts
guest room - the national
conversation 16 - the national it's so serious in here
mirrorball - taylor swift
red wine supernova - chapell roan. sound of the summer. baby why dont you come over is like a philosophical question to me at this point
tagging whoever wants to do this one like fr do this in my name i want to know what you guys are listening to but im tagging no one in particular bc my list is so so stupid. yeah im on day like 88 of the national lent and listening to silly pop songs on the side. of course
#you dont want to go in my spotify summer playlist. like it's just proof of the fact that they're putting me down like a sick dog this summer#beautiful mood but christ it makes for obsessive and borderline boring music listening habits#having fun but does that justify how many times ive listened to taylor swift's stupidest songs about joe alwyn#NOT mirrorball. which is legitimately good. but there are others...#thing

Not that every album needs to be radically different in an artist discography but I don’t think it’s a good sign if your fans are saying your newest album is just like [album 1] and [wildly different album that sounds nothing like album 1 and has an completely separate idea from both new album and album 1]. I don’t think it means you’ve been stagnant your whole career but it does not seem so good for the new album.
#taylor swift#the tortured poets department#don’t get it twisted I am not vague blogging lmao this is pointed#and like look we don’t have to act like Taylor’s never made a good song or album okay. she’s done things that are not good.#we don’t need to make shit up and we shouldn’t make shit up like that she can’t make decent music#but it does not say good things about ttpd when fans are willing to be publically disappointed#also like it’s not even that she’s like secret raging super villain bigot she just literally never matured in that way#and can’t seem to deal when people are like that’s a weird thing to say that’s a weird guy to date#like she just…a creator on titktok said it best she just has a childish mindset.#fight me in the damn comments or something

Will you be commenting on the Taylor drama?
I love the way this was worded, like I'm one of the siblings on Succession and the press has cornered me outside my penthouse to ask if I'll be releasing a statement on my family's latest scandal. Hehehe anyways.
Sorry but I just don't understand how anyone is shocked. Truly what has that woman ever done to successfully convince people that this is out of character for her. Like I don't want to diminish anyone's pain or anything but I see all these stans on here and over on Twitter in all this distress, having their very first epiphanies like "Hold on . . . does Taylor . . . suck??" And I kinda just have to chuckle at them cause like bless your hearts babes, but omg catch UP 😭
Lol because 1) she is a severely emotionally stunted person who thinks edgy British "bad boys" are hot like she's 12 years old, 2) she has no true deeply-held moral principles outside of issues that directly affect herself, and 3) truthfully, she seems to be suffering from a serious crisis of identity after the end of the longest and most significant romantic relationship of her life, and in my opinion is pretty clearly desperate to prove something to the world/her ex/herself.
The first reason is cringe but not news to longtime viewers, the second reason is pathetic but also not news (to those who can be honest with themselves), and the third is . . . understandable in some sense, but not pitiable enough to make me willing to humor this insufferable little episode she's having. I wish her luck on this humiliating rebound journey, but she is gonna have to walk that road on her own.
Normally, I always roll my eyes when people make these kinds of jokes, but given the circumstances I feel justified in saying: I can't wait to hear the breakup song about him, sis 🤡
#the great thing about disliking your own fave is that they simply do not have the power to disappoint you lol#like her stans (at least those who arent complete sycophants—which sadly is not most) are breaking down over Babys 1st Cognitive Dissonance#meanwhile im just over here chilling lol#ive also just NEVER been particularly invested in her personal life anyways so im gucci on that front too#i didnt even realize specific songs were about specific celebrity exes until *several* years into listening to her music#thats how unplugged i am lol#she is unusually extremely visible in the collective conscious right now cause of the tour and this insufferable PR blitz#but the absolute best thing for me is when she disappears and i dont have to perceive her -- the actual person -- outside of her music#and then it can just be me and my lifelong companion the fictional character “taylor swift” (c)(r)(tm)#so personally the only real threat this hangs over my head is the thought she might put him on an album#like that does strike real terror in my heart im ngl#ESPECIALLY any of the rerecords oh my god#and given the way hes been tailing her in and out of that damn studio . . . its not looking good for me kids 🥴#i cant believe she would be that dumb after making the same mistake with joe on folklore#cause even tho now she has to suffer the indignity of sharing a grammy with her ex (LMAO)#at least we can understand that at the time she thought they were in it for life#but if she pulls that shit again with a REBOUND??? just to like stick it to joe or further delude herself or whatever?#idk im gonna need interpol or somebody to step in and do something drastic like this is a cry for help#did you guys see that euphoria meme someone made about her deranged “ive never been happier!!!!” speech the other day?#it was SO funny ill go find it

i just don’t think people who say taylor swift isn’t talented are serious people. like you can argue that she got to where she is because of her parent’s money and her white privilege etc. that’s totally true. and you can argue that there are many super talented artists who remain in obscurity for their whole career despite being absolutely way ahead of the game and more deserving of worldwide renown. all that can be true. and it’s worth having discourse about. but you lose me when you point to someone who is so clearly talented and say “she’s mediocre”. because she is obviously not mediocre. like idk. it just bugs me. because i think there are so many valid criticisms to make about people like taylor swift but it gets goofy when you call her talent into question
#i’m getting goofy in my taylor swift defence era#but tbf#like everything else u can criticise absolutely#but why does everyone get stuck on questioning talent#like it’s just. stupid#argue about her politics or her climate inaction or her devotion to capitalism#like whatever#but girl clearly has talent cmon#you aren’t that popular for that long and make that many pivots in your music if you don’t have talent#is she the most creative musician around? no. is she an innovator in the music space? no.#but there are many facets of talent when it comes to artists/performers#and she obviously has her finger on the pulse and can write a goddamn song#and her concerts are unforgettable even if ur not a fan#like idk. i just think people lack nuance in their discussion of her#and it frustrates me cause like#i agree with u until u get goofy and obviously just hate her#THERE ARE SO MANY GOOD POINTS TO MAKE so why aren’t you making them

I think Taylor Swift should come out as straight actually
#radiostatic.txt#some gaylor post crossed my dash the other day so I ended up going through their blog to see loke what's up with that#and it's actually disgusting. I'm saying this as a queer person#it's actually really gross to put all of your time and effort into proving that a real life person is actually lgbt#to be clear here if it turns out taylor is gay and she comes out then like good for her! but let her do that her own terms.#it's also not that hard to find actual quotes from her saying she's not lgbt. but these people will pretend those don't exist#I'm not a taylor swift fan. I don't enjoy her music. but looking through those blogs has made me feel really sorry for her#she is a real person. like if she was fictional and y'all were making gay headcanons I would get it#but she's not. she's real#and the fact that these people are digging into absolutely everything she says and does to ''prove'' that she's gay is really fucking gross#if I was a celebrity and people did thay stuff to me I don't think I would ever leave the house again#and again that's regardless of if she's ''actually gay'' or not#have some respect for other people. it is disrespectful to her as a human being to constantly mirco analyze everything she does#and like the worst part about this is I bet you she could outright say ''I am straight. I am not lgbt+''#and these people would STILL go on about how she's ''secretly gay and not ready to come out yet'' or some bs

anyway swifties who are like “lol I love the cryptic messages” are insane?????
#and also not real#you either love her voice or you don’t#do you think *I* would be here if it was about solving random little puzzles#literally??!!!!! I hate random little puzzles#in whatever degree taylor participates in it (which I believe is less than fans think) it’s unserious#she’s serious about her storytelling and her music this is not about connecting a bunch of random little dots together I ?????????????#sorry I Am RANTING and also not making sense but I’m trying to explain it to myself#Taylor is meticulous and clever and fun and a good marketer#and she has used the clues thing to her advantage sure#but it’s like her music videos#it’s the 87th thing she does best and it’s so weird when anyone gets stuck on it#also it’s boring I’m bored taylor SWIFT is in the room???!! and you wanna talk about that???#not her humanity or understanding of love or intense femininity or her fear or her skill with words or her ease with a melody#or her prolificness or her ability to keep shifting while staying the same#say you hate her elyse SAY YOU HATE HER#actually don’t but like.#okay I’m done I’m so sorry I’m DONE

Mueller gets a lot of hype, but I don’t think she gets enough tbh. Her control, her choices, the raw power she keeps just perfectly restrained. She’s awesome
Omg do you wanna be best friends?????????????
#like this is an actual question#I need someone to talk to about musical theater and live performances#ok ok my dear Jessie mueller is INSANE#ngl shoshana bean will forever be my favorite#I’m 99.9% sure she was the star in the show on broadway for a little bit#but I think Jessie just does such a good way of becoming the character#like whenever someone else sings those songs I’m always like oh it’s a cover cause it’s not Jessie songing#*singing#ALSO#I would like to take a moment to appreciate her CRACKS#like the way she purposely cracks her voice in some of her songs to add the emotion KILLS ME#I don’t think Jessie mueller gets enough hype tbh#or any broadway stars for that matter#I don’t give a fuck about Taylor swift or any of those people#I want to hear more about Jessie mueller and Cynthia erivo and shoshana bean#THOSE are talented fuckers#they have the chops#but they also know how to tell a story through singing#and I think that’s true talent#anyone can sing a song and make it sound pretty#but only a few people can sing a song and make you FEEL every single word they say#and broadway stars are perfect examples#I want to be on broadway 😭#I have so much to say about this still#but I’m going to shut up cause my thoughts are getting all jumbled#but seriously if you want to talk to me about live performances and musicals and operas slide in my DMs pls pls pls#I need to send all of my favorite live performances to someone#and freak the fuck out with them whenever the performer does something that blows my mind#ask#anon

Why do people hate Taylor swift so bad??
(I am not a swiftie wet roomba please do not block me on sight 😭)
#like I don’t really like her but I just read at least a dozen people calling her a terrible songwriter because she writes basic lyrics#like so does everyone else?#she’s a pop singer - pop singers rarely if ever write anything more than surface level#feel like these people are the same ones worshipping Britney Spears when she does the same exact thing because it’s a hallmark of pop#I don’t know man getting mad at pop music for not being deep and well written feels like going to an Italian restaurant and being mad#that they don’t sell sushi.#I do get that a lot of people say her lyrics are really good#but a lot of people also say that Wendy’s is really good so like#maybe consider who is saying this before you dogpile?#not that it gets to her - she’s a nepo baby for sure#like I agree with your position in disliking her but not how you got there#if that makes sense#Taylor swift

Today I learned many things
1) while I knew Taylor Swift was regarded by some as a queer icon I don't understand why and can't find anything about her being queer
2) I don't know what slay and serve means but that's alright. People are unwilling to explain which is also alright
3) it is basically impossible to find out because of the ways aave as a language gets made invisible. All explanations that could exist are hidden behind walls of explanation why aave shouldn't be used, is not slang, how it got appropriated by white folk, etc. All things I already knew, just wish you could go beyond that and maybe learn which terms you (I) use are aave and what they originally meant. Because like I can't do anything except wait for someone to point it out when I do
Finding an aave dictionary is also a futile task, for the reasons above and because it probably just doesn't exist. I know "ok" is aave for example but it's really very few words
3.5) a lot of it comes from ballroom culture and is connected to the queer community
4) swifties know on average less about aave than me and say slay and serve a lot, black people hate that they are like this
5) swifties are racist and homophobic at the least
6) swifties don't care about misgendering and transphobia but they're not alone
#notallswifties#but who cares if it's not all#rhetoric like this just reminds me of people who go like ''but many Germans had no choice but to collaborate with the nazis!!!"#''they're basically victims as well'' wtf did you just say. yo you didn't just defends nazis (<- germans will pretend they actually didnt)#this is not about taylor swift. like ts is so unassuming we could just not talk about her. it's her fans and the industry tho#just like with kpop. you can't criticize the structures companies and industry without getting mauled for hating the artists#which like no one does. also the k pop industry stole from black artists#in a similar way to Elvis Presley. black music is good yes but can't have black ppl making and selling it

something i hate about you bitches is when yall are so fucking impatient when it comes to artists releasing music.. taylor swift can put out like 3 half assed shitty albums in the course of a year and yall still listen to it and claim it’s the best thing you’ve ever heard.
hayden on the other hand actually takes her time to make good music she and others can connect with. the span of when she started writing preachers daughter to when she put it out she put out sad music for sad people, changed her artist name, put out carpet bed, put out golden age, then inbred, THEN preachers daughter..like i don’t understand why people say hayden takes too long to make music like of course she does it’s cuz she fucking CARES ABOUT MAKING GOOD MUSIC!!
like sorry ur impatient and can’t handle not listening to an artist with similar albums they pulled out of their ass? it’s like yall are fent addicts that cannot possibly be sober for a millisecond..i hate yall u bitches piss me off so fucking BADDDDDDDDDD
@bodycrosses pls back me up ik ur ass gets me
#ethel cain#rant post#yall piss me off#be fuckin patient my god#mothercain#ethelcain#appalachain gothic#southern gothic#preachers daughter

one of the cringier forms of virtue signalling on tumblr to me is people acting willfully obtuse and pretending that they don't know what a metaphor or basic storytelling devices are (while half their blog posts are humblebragging/complaining about being a 'gifted child') so they can dunk specifically on taylor swift.
like i'll never get over the reaction to the 'sexy baby' line, where she is referencing both a joke in a popular sitcom, and the 'born sexy yesterday' trope that tumblr frothed over the mouth about how succinct and astute of an analysis it was - but then pretended to take it as literally as possible to call a famous woman 'creepy' and 'weird' when she's relating it to her experiences of feeling tall/huge/taking up too much space/being a villain/monster on the hill vs. the expectation of a small childlike innocent young woman who makes herself act like a tiny weak baby for male validation.
and then they pretended the asylum she was referencing was... her childhood home? and not the music industry she was in since she was 15? the one that slut-shamed her, body-shamed her, stalked her, threatened her, created parasocial relationships with her, and expects everything out of her - but no, everyone played willfully dumb so they could call her privileged for thinking her upper class childhood home was an 'asylum' even when it clearly wasn't the intent.
acting like "the man" is talking about every man on earth and not herself but a man. a rich, white, talented, able bodied man. y'know, like leonardo dicaprio, who she directly references. but no no, she's saying her life would be easier even if she was the most oppressed man on earth. yep. ignore every lyric in the song to tell yourself that.
and finally the horribly cringe way they react to her storytelling songs. simultaneously whining that she only sings about her love life, then screaming about how she 'never cleaned up a house so why is she referencing that in her song!!!!' when she's clearly telling a story. like.
does it feel good? to pretend you haven't gone further than 4th grade reading classes so that you can dunk on someone you don't like?
