This is what that bothers me about the whole Taylor/Kanye/Kim thing. And I get the vibe that to Taylor and her people the issue is simply that she got caught in a lie, not the fact that she got caught in a really insidious lie with painfully racist undertones.

Exactly, she’s 28 years old. this song and video really don’t suggest she’s nearly 30, and people have the right to talk about that. Whether you like the song or not, imo there is nothing strong or woman power about it. The most bad ass thing she’s done so far is facing that asshole in the trial and her sexual…

Yeah, I’m not sure why she thought dancing would be a good idea. She is NOT a dancer, which was like the entire premise of the Shake It Off video.

She is directly referencing an incident SHE CRRATED and is AGAIN playing the victim. She was absolutely assaulted by that dj. She IS absolutely blaming other people for calling her out on her own bullshit on a totally separate event. One doesn’t cancel the other.

I mean, 28 isn’t *that* young.

She is playing the victim about valid criticisms about herself. None of those criticisms involve her assualt and almost all of them were made way before the assault even happened.

Very true. I guess I should have been clearer in the sense that we get it that she thinks she gets it.

This song doesn’t reference that though. This song references the Kayne song about which she definitely played the victim.

I’m no swift fan, but Beyonce stole that shit from the Mighty Ducks....and they stole it from some birds in nature, so....not a big deal?

Whitney, it’s “all of A sudden.” Seriously, when have you ever read it with “the” like that?

Nobody said her death should be more or less important than anyone else’s. I personally can’t stand Kanye West, but so what? It is a position lacking in basic empathy and tact to point out that she died from (gasp!) ELECTIVE, all caps surgery as if that means her death is less painful for those that it matters to or…

I think this song is at least bad in a way that’s sort of fascinating? Like if a week ago you told me “Taylor swifts new single will sample too sexy for my shirt in the chorus and the aesthetic will be approximately that of a Suburban Basement Halloween Party in 2004,” I think I would be like “woah...rly.”

I think New Romantics is the best 1989 song and it was like the 7th song released!

this song will fade away quickly because its a disaster. will be replaced within a month by her second single which hopefully is great. dont know how on earth she is going to top 1989 though. she may have peaked!

I’m so happy for her and her namaste mug.

Or, from a ‘glass-half-full’ viewpoint, Colquitt is having a Peter Norman moment: I support these men, but this is not about me.

I understand your point. In fact, I honeslty mostly agree with it.

Somebody’s gotta love the troops sort of.

I wonder if it’s not considered indecent to throw the body of the woman you’ve just murdered into the ocean so long as it’s fully intact. It’s a weird thing. Obviously, the gruesome way he attempted to dispose of her warrants punishment, but just tossing her overboard at all (i.e., “burying her at sea”) seems like the…

P.S. Where possibly, try to avoid cooking with fats or oil,
