The Shape of Ideas

okay is she being actually immature or is it just a woman over 30 expressing a human experience you find to be immature.

like yeah. at certain ages... let shit go. im not defending the real immature shit. im not defending the karen you're picturing. i worked in retail i hate those people too. (once somebody got mad at me because she didn't like how our winter window decor was a snowman smoking a pipe. i wish i was joking).

but men at 57 will write books about how 17 year old girls are soooo sexy. they will invent worlds where women have to be naked for "armor reasons." they will write songs that treat women as objects. people rush to defend them. meanwhile a woman at 35 will be like "heartbreak is hard, actually" or "i feel betrayed by a friend" or "i am struggling with something emotionally." immediately people will say stuff like this woman is 35 by the way. by the way this woman is SO OLD to be experiencing this. BY THE WAY.

im 31, almost 32. the other day a poet was blasted online because at her "big age", she had written a poem about feeling unloved. top comment was "this woman is 29 by the way." this woman is too old to still be useful, by the way. she has to behave better . maybe if she was a good wife and mother she could stop existing loudly, and the story could continue on without her. this woman has served her purpose, by the way. she's so cringe, by the way. at 29 - so old! - she still hasn't figured out that her existence should be one of shame.

In case you're still looking for a Christmas present: my very own book Paint, Paper & Going Places was published last November! It's a guide to creative travel journaling and it was inspired by my 3.5 month Interrail trip through Europe. I'll teach you everything about scrapbooking and painting in your (travel) journal. You can find more info here. Enjoy!

Taylor acknowledged the giant friendship bracelets outside of the Stadium:

''This tour isn't like anything I've done before. You've created traditions, you've like, created this this mass movement of joy everytime we play a show. And it makes me so proud, it really does. Like, I just showed up one day and you guys were sharing friendship bracelets and I was like, 'that's cool!', and now there's a giant friendship bracelet outside of the Stadium! Which is so nice of them to do for us. But it's even nicer of you guys to create things that went so far beyond from whatever I expected from this Tour.''
