They are like a real-life, corny version of Frank and Claire Underwood.

I think she DID kidnap him. The whole European vacation is a ruse to get him to Spain, where everyone knows, she will lock him up in the real Tower of Joy. And then, Elizabeth Olsen is going to have to gather an army to go rescue him....

He will forever be sullied from his contact with Taylor. She is like a stain he will never be able to wash away. lol

I love Ryan Adams cover of 1989. Just goes to show what a change musical styling can make. This is what made me admit, painfully, to myself that she is a good song writer. I just need a folk singer/songwriter filter to be able to appreciate it. I just cannot do her pop. Ugh.

Taylor Swift is successful due to tapping into the same audience as One Direction. (And before that NSYNC and Backstreet, and before that NKOTB, and before that David Cassidy.) She serves stand-in for her predominately-female teen and tween audience. Sort of like how the painfully bland Bella Swan is the…

Game of Blondes.

Whoops. I promise I did not see your post before I posted. But I said the same thing, but not nearly as eloquently. I think you have perfectly captured the zeitgeist of the Taylor Swift backlash. Would you be our leader?

Speaking as a mediocre white woman, I would just like to say, I hate the weird Taylor-always-gets-a-star dynamic she happens with the media, fans, people in general. Kanye is generally right about her. The way in which he communicates is just alienating.

Hello, Nail. Meet head.

I am shocked to hear someone who is friends with Mike Tyson use a rape analogy inelegantly.

TDS writers can’t seem to see the forest for their own penes.

I picked up on “toward a person,” too!

Sitting glued to the TV this morning. When the decision came down, KXAN (Austin station) pre-empted the national news to cover this breaking story. A significant portion of this coverage was devoted to a butt-hurt pro-life OBGYN lamenting the tragedy of this ruling, ad nauseum. I could not stand it and stopped…

Thank Goddess! (And by “Goddess” I mean the triumvirate of awesomeness that is Ruth Bader-Ginsburg, Elena Kagan, and Sonia Sotomayor.)

I am on tenterhooks this morning. Abortion in Texas, in my experience, has never been a picnic. But, at least 20 years ago I could still get one. Although, like as not, it would come with an in-procedure lecture from the doctor performing it on how not to be such a slutty slut.

This is exactly the opposite of a very stupid question. It is, in fact, an excellent question. Why the fuck can’t we? That is a completely reasonable expectation.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner.

I always check in on this show, hoping it will get better. But then they go and fire the smart comedian.

His hair looks like urine-flavored cotton candy.
