#Swifties protect your energy like it’s a premium product. Internet trolls who don’t understand art aren’t worth your time.

Mute. Block. Move on with your day bopping to these bangers.

After all, we’re the ones with matching scars.

Fucking thank you! Love the album or hate it, EVERYONE seems to be missing the literary analysis piece and I’m ashamed of y’all’s English teachers…

While you’re all mad at Taylor Swift beefing with Charlie XCX I’m over here wondering why Springsteen didn’t respond to Prefab Sprout’s diss track “Cars and Girls”

so you haven't gotten to the song about the internet yet

[Verse 1]
Everybody's so punk on the internet
Everyone's unbothered 'til they're not
Every joke's just trolling and memes
Sad as it seems, apathy is hot
Everybody's cutthroat in the comments
Every single hot take is cold as ice
When you found me, I said I was busy
That was a lie

[Pre-Chorus]
I have been afflicted by a terminal uniqueness
I've been dying just from trying to seem cool

Tell us you missed the point without telling us you missed the point.

If you can’t read the pieces of the life of someone in show business in every single song then her poetry is too subtle for you and you probably failed AP English. ✌🏼

“At least you know exactly who your friends are. They're the ones with matching scars.”

Feels very right for this moment.

We see you, Taylor Swift. #TheLifeofaCongresswoman

Enjoying blocking every single person shitting on people for finding a tiny iota of joy today whether it be Taylor’s album or the start of baseball…

Yes the house is still burning. Yes I still want them to FEED PALESTINE. Yes, we should still punch fascists but FFS STFU.

Fuck yall get off my feed.

That’s. Fucking. It. That’s all I wanted.

And no I’m not blaming her for anything else. And no I’m not saying white ppl and white women especially aren’t to blame. AND she could have handled this differently.

BOTH CAN BE TRUE.

He *supposedly* got 77 million.

I never argued that white ppl arent racist AF and are the primary cause.

This entire fucking thread sounds like a bunch of single issue voters, putting words in my mouth and attacking me because I wanted one fucking thing, for her to have meant it when she said she wouldn’t stop fighting.

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."

Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.

Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.

We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

There’s always an old pic that’s worth 1000 words.

A screenshot of an X post by @BBPRTV_1d
featuring a humorous image of a person in a blonde wig and black outfit with a chain necklace, posing with arms behind their head. The post is from "Bad Bunny HQ" with the caption "your VP btw." Below it, a reply from @DogRightGirl_1d
reads, "Apparently this is 'Bad Bunny'. The @NFL
has selected him to be the SuperBowl halftime performer..." and includes two images of a person in a similar outfit.

This has nothing to do with Covid and whether or not it’s ongoing.

This hasn’t do with the FACT that 1) there aren’t any jobs to be had and 2) even if there were, corporate greed is rampant, leading employers not to provide even adequate healthcare to employees, leaving them in NEED of Medicaid.
