thinking about how in the 1800s i would've just been able to leave my town, change my appearance and my name, and wander until no one knew who i was
thinking about this quote:
“As far as the need to rebel against the idea of you, or the image of you: Like, I feel no need to burn down the house I built by hand. I can make additions to it. I can redecorate. But I built this. And so I’m not going to sit there and say, ‘Oh, I wish I hadn’t had corkscrew-curly hair and worn cowboy boots and sundresses to awards shows when I was 17; I wish I hadn’t gone through that fairy-tale phase where I just wanted to wear princess dresses to awards shows every single time.’ Because I made those choices. I did that.”
just so you know 'jfc' (which you use in a lot of the tags on your posts) is an abbreviation for jesus fucking christ and you probably shouldnt use it if ur not a christian
I can't believe I read this with my own two eyes
Dangerous craft
Empty and scared heart,
Broken by empty promise,
Believing is an dangerous craft,
So please excuse me now,
When I say goodbye...
gentle reminder to this fandom that queer people (especially wlw) do exist!! and changing the lyrics to the very first night or interpreting “james” as a girl is just a bit of fun and can help some of us relate more to taylor’s songs!!! we’re not always “projecting a sexuality onto taylor” just because we want to interpret her music in a queer way!! please just let queer people exist in peace and enjoy taylor’s music the way that we want to!!!
taylor's logic with surprise songs on eras is so insane like. first she allowed herself to play midnights songs as many times as she wants, then she said she can repeat songs if she messes up, she plays maroon and yoyok like half a dozen times each, she writes an entire new album to have more songs to play, she removed her no repeats rule completely, she's making mashups of her songs, she's playing songs from the setlist. and all just to avoid playing mary's song
the way taylor sings “i’m an aston martin” in imgonnagetyouback. reblog if you agree.
imagine only watching the eurovision finals and never getting to witness a whole eurovision crowd yelling “pussy” like i’m sorry but yall were robbed
She's often accused of playing the victim, that's a big line in like the Kanye stuff, and so on, like she's self-victimizing. But to me, what's actually kind of interesting, and it's almost an artistic flaw of hers, is that she is unable to be the victim. Like, in Dear John, which is one of her best songs, she has that, you burned all the other girls you date out, but not me, I got your matches before you could burn me. And so like, she actually doesn't play the victim, she's just kind of honest. Like, if somebody releases a music video of you with like, a giant nude wax Taylor doll, she'll be like, that's kind of revenge porn and I don't like it. That's just hitting back, right? So like, what actually irritates people about her is her refusal to be the victim of a situation, but like, they call it playing the victim.
