This movie was fine. I felt like a first act was missing. Or maybe this was more a second movie. Wish we had more time with characters before conflict.

On National Coming Out Day, know that I will always be an ally to you — no matter where you are on your journey.

I know that times may be scary, but you are seen, safe, supported, and loved here in Illinois.

Coming home to Chicago used to feel safe for me. The attack on the city and its suburbs by DHS where Latino communities are located breaks my heart! I also feel very scared for my own safety and family as a Latina.

It’s an album where she goes to extremes — doing for sequins and glitter what Folklore/Evermore did for fuzzy cardigans.

I always really enjoy reviewing Taylor Swift's work and try to give it a measured read. I think Swift is a serious artist deserving a serious response! So here's my Showgirl review www.npr.org/2025/10/03/n...

On 'The Life of a Showgirl,' Taylor Swift feels love's glow and the spotlight's glare

On her 12th album, the most dominant pop star of our era makes a spectacle of herself in full flower, in love and holding the music industry in the palm of her hand.

I think it's sexist to continually characterize Taylor Swift as someone playing the victim. Let her be what she clearly wants to be: THE VILLAIN
