Public library jerseys will go through the roof!

[-] MNByChoice@midwest.social 38 points 2 years ago

Fuck that is gold. We need jerseys for public libraries. It doesn't matter if it makes no sense. It is nearly better if it makes no sense.

The idea of branch rivalries intrigues me greatly

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago

“Our branch banned 37 trans books this season!”

[-] MNByChoice@midwest.social 21 points 2 years ago

No, these are Librarians. They tend to be against book bannings.

"My branch has 5x the circulation as your branch."

"Well mine had more story times! We are building up our client base."

This would be Texas, they would have private libraries, they would name them TRUTHberies, and their logos would all be blatantly racist and vaguely homoerotic.

"Real Men Ride Bareback at Loving County TRUTHbrary"

the horse on the logo is inexplicably drawn with blackface

What would the mascots be? We need Last Week Tonight and Japan on this question! I guarantee they can shit out enough book/library themed mascots we won't need to reuse even one!

[-] MissJinx@lemmy.world 57 points 2 years ago

Please lets not bring TS here. FFS every single news is about her! She doesn't seem like a bad.person and I can't stand looking at her anymore

[-] Sweetpeaches69@lemmy.world 51 points 2 years ago

She doesn't seem like a bad person

I would just like to point out that she's almost a billionaire, in order to spread awareness.

[-] gullible@kbin.social 52 points 2 years ago

And whose music career was nearly exclusively the product of nepotism through her multimillionaire music executive father.

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago

Oh Jesus christ, are you really that far gone?

She's where she is now largely because of talent and hard work, who cares if her parents were wealthy?

Get over it.

[-] gullible@kbin.social 31 points 2 years ago

Stanning anyone in 2023 is silly. Parasocial relationships aren’t healthy.

Is this copypasta?

[-] ClaireDeLuna@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I listen to a lot of music. And I hear musicians that are objectively more talented than her, both instrumentally, and vocally. Not just writing, but producing and performing their own music, yet they do not make millions upon millions of dollars because they didn't have a rich daddy.

She cornered a demographic, with technically simple and catchy music, then with the help of her rich parents utilized her nepotism to get her career going.

She's the fast food of pop music. I'm sure as an individual she's okay. But she is NOT where she is today because of her talent alone.

So? She's one of the most successful musicians in history, of course she's got some cash.

[-] Sweetpeaches69@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

I just fundamentally disagree with anyone that wealthy. They should be doing good things with that money, not hoarding it

"Nooo! She just wanted to rerelease all of her old music with gimmicks so that she could get HER versions out there!" /s

[-] Sweetpeaches69@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Translated: "Now that the innately talentless Swift has all the time and resources in the world to be trained how to write music, a decade into her career, she is rewriting all of her hits that were written by professional songwriters."

This is true, and apparently she had a spat with New Jersey(? I may have the wrong east coast state), as she bought a house thinking it had a private beach, when it was a public beach, but that's the worst thing I've heard her do. IIRC she ended up apologizing for the misunderstanding.

I'll admit I know next to nothing about her. She seems to be doing better than most at not having dragon sickness cause her to turn into a shitty person though.

[-] MissJinx@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Look I know nothing about her, bu the fact that she is a billionaire sais nothing to me. People are throwing money at her like she was a wishing fountain. I think she would be one if she wanted or not

[-] atyaz@reddthat.com 20 points 2 years ago

Why was it his game? He playing alone?

I think that's the foosball player she's dating, but don't quote me. I don't watch sportsball

Who cares, if I wanted celebrity drivel I'd use Instagram.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago

How do you not understand that this is about libraries, not celebrities?

it's about Taylor Swift and Pop Culture Bad. if you can't see that, maybe you should spend more time in a library

[-] FoundTheVegan@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

But.. . that is... that was literally the point of the post? You're just redoing the post in a more bitter and angry way.

Like idk what app you should be using, but maybe this isn't the one either. Chill.

When did she become so famous? Why do people care?

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago

She's an extremely talented singer and songwriter, that's how.
