ohhhh i mixed it up with speak now
tbf i am gardening
just thinkin' 'bout how the night she announced 1989 was the night before travis showed up with a friendship bracelet, and how he always said his favorite song was blank space and then she made an entire album of blank space-type bangers
👀 ohhh what might this mean?!
(i've never followed their lore)
I’m going to sleep now honest. Well, as honest as several hours ago I said I wasn’t going to post about Sabrina, just watch 😂 but I’ll leave these here:
Screenshot of text “Cruel Summer” (2019) For the first 98 seconds, “Cruel Summer” is merely a perfect Taylor Swift song. Then for the bridge, she takes off into a deranged greatest-hits album’s worth of choruses from brilliant songs she hasn’t written yet. You could write a whole dissertation on the erotics of windows in Taylor’s songs — no poet since Keats has been so obsessed with the kind of desire that doesn’t dare use the door. “Cruel Summer” is about sneaking around and feeling ashamed of her secrets, but also feeling proud of how ashamed she is, until she finally yells her dirtiest secret out loud: “I love you — ain’t that the worst thing you ever heard?” But make no mistake, she loves her secrets more than she’ll ever love this paramour.Best line: “I snuck in through the garden gate / Every night that summer just to seal my fate.” Listen here.
Rolling Stone Australia still has my personal ranking as best traditional media take on Cruel Summer.
"You could write a whole dissertation on the erotics of windows in Taylor’s songs — no poet since Keats has been so obsessed with the kind of desire that doesn’t dare use the door."
oof! that's awful.
have you tried sumatriptan? they sell it at chemist warehouse for like $7. just talk to the pharmacist.
i hope you get relief soon!

we're going to have a design sprint in ~two weeks to brainstorm and give shape to our MVP
if you're interested in joining lmk!
since our call, i've been thinking a lot about our potential goals for this project
particularly around how we might make it easier to see the parallax
and how we can distill what we know to make it easier for newbies to jump in
i dont see anything yet but am standing by. also i can drop a zoom link in the notion too
tysm!!!!!
hey @babywereperfect.bsky.social my dms won't load rn so i don't have access to our zoom link to chat projects soon — will you send it to me on tt? my handle is the same.
i will also try again in like 20 mins maybe the bluesky problem will have resolved
🙏
I think more women should be gay and that fascism needs to fucking die
so why did ET post this 11 hours ago???
she is seriously so stunning
"One slip and falling back into the hedge maze, oh what a way to die"
Modern queercoding in media.. bisexual lighting, getting wet, tagging yourself on someone else doing something suggestive. Then THEY share that, cosigning in it.
It's like Taylor tagging herself on boobs and butts lmao
It is NOT possible for me to listen to Golden from KPop Demon Hunters without crying. Not. Possible.
How do I fix this?
ohhh imma go watch on yt tooooo
rejecting that man does matter though, love that energy
when i see twitter, mostly i miss what it used to be 🥲 those days were good
the fact that people still call it twitter at all means they completely failed to rebrand. complying with the rebrand is to accept and legitimize what he did.
calling it twitter does not benefit him at all. using the site does bc it gives him ad revenue.
stay focused on impact. 💜
i've never seen this 💀
this is just a storm inside a teacup
(but failure brings you freedom)
🥲
i'm so sorry jessica! 💜
I'm so sorry it's been hard for you. The surgery situation sounds awful. 💔
You're not alone. Anytime you want to vent lmk. This shit is hard.
In my experience, almost no one knows how to identify autism or characteristics unless they're in our spaces.*
I def wish I'd known earlier, but the DSM has also been slow to evolve and update and include multiple genders in their research. We probably wouldn't have had a diagnosis earlier.
i think it's okay to feel hurt by comments like this. it's also okay to talk to them about things that affect you so that you can all learn to accommodate and adapt together.
half the battle for me rn is figuring out when i need accommodation, how to articulate, etc.
my last manager falsely reported me to hr for saying i told him to go eff himself during a meeting but he didnt know i recorded the call
but i'm the one who lost my job because they said it was *my* fault he acted that way
we're basically magnets 😂 but it can be hard to identify filks who are risky. i can more easily proactively identify folks who may manipulate from a place of insecurity, but i usually don't realize when someone's being malicious until i'm losing a job, basically 😭
