Okay, let’s horse race the debate tonight, purely by performance.

I know we don’t like to hang the label “role model” on famous persons but, it gave me such a swell in my heart when the camera panned to the audience and showed two young beautiful girls just loving this performance - black excellence and with nary a *girl-on-girl crime lyric in sight.

She was an Oscar, Golden Globe, and SAG award winner years before Brad, but keep spouting lies about how her career was made by a man on this supposedly feminist site.

Except for Gia, Foxfire, Girl Interrupted, Pushing Tin, Changeling...

Good on Katy for getting more than one wear out of that outfit.

They hated her for not speaking up or having a stance, but they seem to hate her even more for coming out with the right one.

I was not a big fan of “Me,” either. It felt both industrial and up-beat cynical. Like a Sex and the City themed bachelorette party for 9-year-olds. But I really like this song and I respect the shit out of Taylor and her music. (Again, I Stan the shit out of Reputation.) 

Thanks - I’ll have it on your desk by Monday. Working title:

critiquing the critique is also ok

Counterargument: Taylor Swift is fucking cool?

this.

honestly, it’s like yall are just out there desperately trying to find something to complain about. the song is a great step for her and it’s fun and catchy. so yes, you are a bad faith critic, whatever that means.

Dear god.  Why’d I even ready this?
