you know what’s getting incredibly old? the way some “fans” expect taylor to be their perfect entertainment robot. back in the day, we would spend several months — if not years — enjoying the content we got, rather than demanding more. we’re so ridiculously lucky to be fans of an artist who tries to surprise and delight us at every turn, who gives us so much content to pour over. she doesn’t merely exist for our own consumption, she’s a human being who exists outside of us. please recognise that.
agreed! the fact that i saw some fans getting upset about the possibility of ts12 because she’s “dragging along the re-records”. she’s not dragging anything, she’s always been the one with the plan as to when they should come out, fans are the ones dragging it
NO EXACTLY. i’m sorry that you made up a schedule in your head or decided she would be finished with them by the time she was finished with eras but she actually can see the bigger picture and knows more about her career and personal plans than we do
i know we’re both just messing around pretending to be whole but look at me. if the train was coming would you move. if the ground was falling from under your feet would you even notice or would it just be another tuesday for you. if somebody stabbed you could it hurt worse than you already do. what i’m saying is that i love you but i think we both drive over the speed limit when it’s raining. what i’m saying is that i want to hold your hand and i understand about how you sometimes have to sit down in the shower. what i’m saying is that i’m here for you and if the train comes please move.
evermore is such an insane album when you really think about it. like. love isn't forever. friendship isn't forever. trust isn't forever. family isn't forever. even a marriage isn't forever. but then she ends on evermore (song) and it's like: you know what else isn't forever? pain. suffering. heartache. she just flips the script of the entire album on the LAST SONG and cements the complexity of its core message in 5 minutes. and i'm supposed to be normal about that
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
“and then it was bought by me”
the in summation poem spells everything out. everyone should be required to read it, and if they're still giving her shit about matty after then they are being willfully ignorant.
it’s just tiring too like people are allowed to make mistakes. them owning their mistakes is what matters (and she fucking owned it). she could’ve swept this under the rug. nobody was talking about it in 2024 - she dug it up and excavated her own sins and she didn’t ask for forgiveness, she just asked for empathy and humanity
