    On the billionaire theme, I wish someone would do a documentary - or at least some sort of detailed investigative report - looking into the specific companies that are producing Taylor’s merch. Let’s get some insights into the personal lives of the workers, the managers, etc., who produce her merch, and the environmental impacts of production. If such a report were published, I suspect that Taylor couldn’t simply ignore a bright light exposing the details of what her business choices do to workers who are behind the scenes. It would be fun to see her extend the compassion she expresses for her known workers to the more hidden workers (or redirect her business to countries with better labor/environmental protection). Bright lights are relatively hard to ignore, compared to the shadows where these sordid details are currently lurking. Perhaps, as a journalist, you could do some networking and plant this bug in the bonnets of some worthy investigative folks.

      Probably the same one involved with other artists' merch who are under UMG like Olivia Rodrigo, The Weeknd, Billie Eilish, and Kendrick. Taylor is practically another cog in that wheel. I don't buy any official merch from musicians besides concert tickets. Like, I've seen people complain about Kendrick (the low quality tour shirts as well) and Olivia's merch (the infamous 100 dollar Guts ring set) as well and I believe they're all manufactured by the same company. I don't think Taylor has her own sole print shop somewhere. I think all artists should be aware of this.

      ​@@aidentan6547I don't really understand what kpop has to do with this. Yes they are capitalists having their merch sewed by poor people in a third world country, but that doesn't make them an exception or a target that needs to be addressed first. They are just like every western company / brand.
      I'd even argue and say it's much easier to force kpop companies to change merch quality etc., because the Korean public is super consequential. They hear about quality not matching the price once and there's a sh*t storm happening with the company doing damage control to the highest degree.
      If you'd get the Korean public to condemn celebrities for using racial slurs, none of them would, because they would literally be canceled for a few years at least. Same with any other form of discrimination, but it just isn't a discussion over there.
      What we should definitely talk about is the amount of merch. Although the companies are only reacting to demand. Different album versions have never been this huge until profit increased and fans started obsessing over photocards.

      Non swiftie here who listened to her ENTIRE discography last year. Most people are music first then lyrics second listeners. Not fair to her but that’s just how it is. That’s the first thing I’ve noticed with her music. It’s like she peaked sonically about ten years ago and has gone down hill a little bit with each album. Almost all of her songs from her new album quickly fell off after the first three weeks because it’s hard for a general audience to stay engaged with her music if the music sounds the way it does now. Really trying to be a bigger fan but I can’t get over the overly done synth sound to a lot of Midnights, TTPD and the re-records(I don’t listen to them because the sound quality is that noticeably bad to me and I’m new to her music but even I can hear it). Folklore/Evermore are ok sonically but I feel like she could’ve made the music MUCH MORE lively. Those albums could’ve sounded like the Lumineers and Mumford and Sons meets Fearless and Speak Now if she really wanted them to. I really liked Lavender Haze and Maroon but some of
      that album makes her voice sound like AI so it’s hard to want to listen to it repeatedly. I’m in my 30s so it can be hard for me to be super invested in her older work that she made as a teenager even though it sounds better. Holding out hope Reputation TV and TS12 are better.

    In the spirit of fair criticism, I'll say: I think is really mean how the Swiftie community treats Taylor's exes. We all have exes. It's ok. We don't need the slander. At least Zach is consistent: he has hated Joe since the beginning but it doesn't sit well with me how the whole fandom turns around so quickly once "we" decided someone is not worthy of Taylor. They are human beings, I believe they deserve an ounce of respect.

      About the "moving on was always easy for me to do", I think it is actually true. I did think like you for a while, but I heard someone saying something about it that made me really rethink (it's one of the things I'm gonna say, I don't remember which one)
      If I'm not mistaken, Taylor has said she stays longer than she should in relationships sometimes - but even if she didn't, it definitely seems to be true - which leads to her processing the ending way before ut actually ends. Also, Taylor is such a people please that she needs to know when she's getting out of the relationship she did everything in her right to try to salvage that relationship, but while doing it, you're also accepting it is over, you just need to be sure you tried to make things work in all ways possible and after that walking away with your mind clear knowing you tried.
      I think what I said could stand on its own, but I'm not sure it was written in the best way (English is not my first language and I'm in a very very loud place which is very close to give me a headache), but jf it's not enough, I think You're Losing Me proves it. Even Tolerate It, honestly.
      It shows clearly to me that she's doing everything she can while she also knows it really is over and there's no going back. You're Losing Me sounds a lot like the "I know it's over but it's not over yet" song to me.
      I could however be projecting a bit too much because I'm a people please and lately I had a "fall out" with my best friend that once was the person I most trusted in the whole world, and during that conversation I was trying but I knew it was over, but I think I've been thinking this even before that happened, so.... I don't know

    OMG you're so true about Lover Album. I think she was really trying to create her image that her life is all happy, despite Kim & Kanye and Scooter owning her masters drama. She wanted to not be seen as this vile snake anymore. She didn't wanna be savage. She wanted to portray that her life with Joe is really fun and happy and she can be a happy person as well. But on the inside she was dying during Lover Album. And thats why, right after that, we had the saddest album ever.. Folklore.. Since she was creating those sad songs of Folklore all the time while making and promoting Lover album.
    "I forgot that you existed" was so forced & that snake turning into butterfly was really trying so hard to prove her life is good. Coz we all know "she buries hatchets but keeps maps of where she put them" so she truly never forgets her enemies haha. I feel like that's a way of protecting her image so she doesn't look weak in front of the media and they don't call her vengeful girl of reputation

    everybody keeps saying how good 'you're losing me' is because it's sad and fills in any blanks about the turkey but it really isn't that great of a song. I find the melody of the verses genuinely annoying to listen to and there is some weird vocal fx where her voice sounds slightly robotic.

We don’t know what really happened between Taylor & Joe, and he was there for her through a dark time in her life and when she was getting so much hate on the internet. Maybe they wanted different things in life or perhaps Joe wanted to get married sooner and Taylor wanted to focus on her career. But ultimately it’s none of our business, and there isn’t proof that Joe is a bad guy. People loved Joe when him & Taylor were together but now that they broke up they switched up on him. I just wonder if they will do the same thing with Travis if him & Taylor break up. I hope for the best for Taylor & Travis though. They are a Sagittarius & Libra couple so their signs are compatible!

    The person trying to diss 1989 by the "this love is good, this love is bad lyric" i think has never heard this love fullout. I understand when people say it's a boring song because it does take a while to get anywhere, but the lyric "these hands had to let it go free and this love came back to me" or "when you're young you just run but you come back to what you need" are imo lyrical highlights of 1989. Trying to point at this love as a lyrically lazy song is crazy to me.

    After watching the Era's tour 3 times at the movies, I came to the conclusion that the show is pretty perfectly paced. The evermore set is slow and is at the start, however, the witchy aspect is mesmerising, more importantly though, the start of the show builds slowly so the Rep and 1989 Era's can shine. I found that once they came, rather than being over the show and ready to strap on my cowboy boots and go home, the opposite is occurring and the adrenaline peaks right at the end. I 100 agree about the Red era. The lyrics are as superb as Evermore/Folklore and way ahead of it's time. I loved Red. The mashup idea for sure, and we needed a deep song from Red apart from Red10 which wasn't an OG song anyway. Holy Ground YES,

    I don't know why yt recommended me a video of yours but I'm so glad it did. I'm not a Swifty by any stretch of the imagination but I am a sucker for thoughtful, detailed, analytical and eloquent discussion on any topic. Like "geeking out - elevated". I want to read between the lines, I want the content to create an aha! moment in my brain, I want to leave more knowledgable thanI was before. I want to hear skillfully built arguments backed with references. I want to hear self-aware criticism on a topic.
    And that's what you serve. And that's why I've been binging your videos for the past couple of days.😅
    What I appreciate the most is the consistent quality across video because I haven't come across any duds (yet? I hope I won't!!!). I thoroughly dislike having to sift through content endlessly just to find something worth my time. I probably spend an unreasonable amount of time researching books to read because studying English language and literature "ruined mediocre writing" for me😆
    But here I can relax and click "play" and get swept away without monitoring for the signs of duds.
    To be fair, I have listened to TS quite a bit after Midnights came out - that album is my vibe. Then I discovered Evermore and Folklore which I also like. I don't really listen to her earlier stuff. Of course I know the songs. But I'm 3 years older than her and married my high school sweetheart, and country music also isn't my thing, so... just not my vibe or topics. However, I have always admired her song writing skills and lyrics.
    So anyway, thank you for providing my overactive and wandering brain another home on the internet❤️

    Did Taylor lean into a childlike aesthetic with lover because she was considering having kids with Joe and wanted something that her kids would be able to enjoy? A lot of actors talk about how they take roles there kids would like, and she may have been in a mindset where she thought she’d have kids soon

      I don't think so because she said in Miss Americana that she isn't ready for that kind of stuff.

    Taking the time and effort to be nuanced and trying to view sth as popular as Taylor Swift and the things she does/ writes in a neutral or controversial way has become rare this times.

      I disagree entirely with the evermore opinion tbh. I honestly didn’t care much for the upbeat songs from evermore. Think people are under the misconception that bc it’s a concert it needs to be upbeat songs to get the crowd in the mood but we gotta take into account that it’s over 3 hours and she needs eras like folklore and evermore to be sandwiched between the more upbeat and pop heavy eras so she can have a breather. The evermore set is perfect for me, also agree with the red opinion of cutting down the hits to have other songs.
