@KimKardashian “Sorry to bore you, you all are dealing with serious matters but here’s a self serving thread painting my family as the victim after we’ve been bullying a girl since she was 19”
Pitchfork is one of the most disingenuous music publications ever, cause they want it both ways, they want to jump on the hate bandwagon when it's going on, and they want to seem on the right side of history by updating the score and giving acclaim when it no longer matters.
Teens are telling their therapists they don’t believe there will be a world left for them when they grow up
My family therapist told me therapists are talking about this with each other because none of them know what to say
I can’t stop thinking about that
Taylor was really 19 writing long live and talking about shit like if you have children someday when they point to the pictures please tell them my name im laughing she knew she’d be goat
popcast is a really good example of genuine conversation about taylors music. i dont always agree with them, but they're very balanced and consistent in their comments which i always appreciate. for the people who insist swifties cant handle criticism, BTW
I don't always agree with their takes (as if that's a crazy concept lol) but their dialogue and decades of experience as music journalists really puts into perspective how bad faith the Swiftologists of the influencing world are
It’s likely a scheme by record labels to create success for their younger artists by dismantling Taylor Swifts grasp on the industry. The bots target Gen Z, who are very susceptible and easily influenced. Gen Z then gains a distorted perspective of her and targets her as well.
Maya Hawke on which song she would pick to represent Taylor Swift in the American anthology of poetry:
“But Daddy I Love Him or betty. They tell a full story, like epic poetry. They do it without using clichés; they tell an original story that plays on themes and historical ideas. And I think they’re just, like, very fully thought-through, extremely complete epic journeys. And to do a journey like that in such a condensed amount of time, it’s just concentrated humanity, you know?”
The literacy crisis isn’t that people can’t read the words. It’s that they can’t understand the context, infer meaning, recognise nuance, identify contradictions, or draw logical conclusions from what they’ve read
