queer as in gay but also queer as in unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I'm like if a girl had the urge to scream and break something all the time but stays quiet instead
taylor swift’s work wouldn’t be nearly as insufferable if she wasn’t constantly trying to present herself as some sort of tortured underdog. like, okay, she has endured hardships, and a lot of people, especially white men, are shitty towards her for purely misogynistic reasons. that sucks, i agree. but she’s never been an underdog before. she was born to well-off parents who did everything they could to start her music career when she was barely even a teenager, an opportunity that lots of people would kill for. now she’s extremely famous and wealthy, and everything she releases is destined to sell millions of copies and receive glowing reviews in nearly every publication. she is not an underdog, and i have trouble believing she’s particularly “tortured.” she’s not even an alcoholic, despite claiming to be one on the opening track of her new album! people like to defend her lyrics by saying she’s just playing a character, which i don’t believe for a second, but even if she was, i don’t think i want to listen to someone like swift play the character of a tortured underdog, not when there’s so many musicians out there who are actually tortured underdogs. it comes across as hollow. “you wouldn’t last an hour in the asylum where they raised me,” sung by one of the wealthiest, most famous, most critically acclaimed musicians in the world, who was born to loving parents who personally helped her start her career, who once said she’d never been to therapy because she “just feels very sane.” if you’re going to play a character, maybe pick one who we’re not supposed to pity.
To myself: “It’s ok to make bad art it’s ok to make bad art it’s ok to make bad art it’s ok to make bad art”
*the art is bad*

I think it's really funny when younger people rip on "millennials" (I don't believe in generation labels) for saying cringey shit like, "doggo" and "I did a thing" as if most people under 30 aren't butchering aave and Ballroom terms and calling it "tiktok slang". like, what's cringier? calling a character you like a cinnamon bun, or being racist. quickly.

honestly i think we should bring back 'thursday. what a concept.' in 2024
Neil Banged out his tunes today, on a train you have the comfort and relaxation to bang out your own tunes
[ID:
1. a tag reading "gaiman???"
2. the original neil banging out the tunes image: a picture of a rat in front of a rainbow toy piano, with the caption "Neil banging out the tunes April 13, 2006"
3. a tag from neil gaiman reading "i might bang out a tune today. you don't know for sure that I won't"
