This feels more like some misogyny at play. “The little girl won’t fight us!” The back catalog was a dead asset the minute Taylor said she was going to re-record them. The leverage she gained with the streaming services might have them promoting her new versions over the originals. That’s truly going to hit the bottom…

It’s difficult to understand how

Have these people not been following her career since she’s been 14???

That’s also a good route to being a starving artist. 

I nearly threw up when I read the quote that starts “To extract maximum value from music assets...”

Next time I’m buying stereo equipment, Taylor’s Version albums are going to be my reference material. The dynamic range on these records is so wide, it’s clear they were mastered for private on-demand listening, not radio. Really lovingly produced, beautiful recordings.

Taylor Swift continues be such a fascinating person and I mean that in the most respectful way possible.

In addition to this, the new release versions are pretty definitively seen as the superior recordings.

Embarrassing is absolutely the right world for underestimating her.

Henry Cavill is a massive fucking nerd, and I love it.

I always thought it was a really unique opportunity for genre mashing that I think the show intends to take advantage of in ways the books and video games didn’t really care to do to make the lore distinctly different than other medieval-ish fantasy worlds. Like playing with the idea that the humans crossed over from…

I think Sapkowski left it that way on purpose (referencing the Conjunction etc), a bit of mystery to intrigue the reader.

Can we all agree that the UK tabloids are some of the trashiest fucking papers on Earth? Not excusing the American tabloids. Just pointing out how they can be so goddamned insensitive as to defend a fucking molester creep like Andrew.

I have a counterpoint to it anyway.

Quick! It’s time for another racist hit piece on Meghan!

To paraphrase the Onion, I’m surprised they’re not blaming Meghan Markle. 

“Most people can only dream of the sums of money” that Prince Andrew was simply born into by grace of an antiquated system, and obtained from taxpayers and plundered, colonized countries around the world.
 

I’ve heard this argument before (“I know a child who gave birth to another child, and it turned out fine!”) and it literally makes me nauseous. 

Exactly. And in these people’s minds, “immoral behavior” means having sex, or at least having sex that they don’t approve of.

They got advanced degrees? I thought that was a bad thing for these hate-filled mouthbreathers.
