ttpd and red both being messy and drawn out but quintessential displays of taylor’s penmanship too powerful for the world to understand i see the vision
so much of the Swiftie Discourse would be resolved if some of y’all could come to terms with the following facts:
a) taylor swift is a human being
b) it is genuinely okay to like both the music AND the person creating said music. constantly looking for evidence that the person behind the music is a bad person is just weird. either like her and the music, or just the music; actively searching for reasons that she’s not who she says she is is fucking odd
Sorry I hate the narrative that being a Swiftie is a curse or just something that happened. I love loving Taylor Swift and I actively choose to listen to her music and connect with people in the fandom because it makes me happy.
“When people begin to define the things that they believe in, based upon the exclusion of all the things that they hate, all that does is eat away at the soul. Define the things that you believe in based upon the pursuit of the the things that you love and then that love should be able to override all those things that you hate.”

“we do it because people need an escape from how brutal life can be, and it is the honor of a lifetime to be that for them, if only for a night” has me so emotional. this tour has been the best, most magical escape for so many of us over the last two years, and i hope she knows that we feel ridiculously lucky to have experienced it, whether that was in person or via livestreams.
i couldn’t care less that taylor isn’t a vocal powerhouse because her voice feels like home to me. it feels like a soft warm blanket or a hug from your mom or the bed in your childhood room. it’s beautiful and earnest and unbridled and uniquely her and i wouldn’t trade it for the world
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you.
