the friend that I lent Solitaire to, said that she saw my mannerisms and my personality In Tori while she was reading the book, she said “it feels like I’m reading about you and your thoughts and mannerisms, it’s like you completely shaped your personality and mannerisms after her” and I was like “I guess it was a sort of coping mechanism last year and now I actually can’t tell the difference between what’s left of my personality and Tori’s anymore and you clearly can’t either”. I’m still happy that she saw me in Tori while reading it.
I know i’ve said it before. But this discourse about the ethics regarding taylor swift being a billionaire are so disingenuous. She doesn’t have a makeup line, clothing line, brand endorsements.
The bulk of her income is entirely from her own talent as a musician. She has not exploited anyone. She’s also not even close to being a cash billionaire when you look at the numbers it like half of that ( bc it’s hard to become a billionaire without shady shit) . Taylor is known to pay her employees well. By percentage what she gives away to charity and compensates her team with is unheard of. She gave 10% of her net worth away in bonuses to everyone who worked on her tour. That’s just what we know of.
I’m not even saying this as a fan, but you cannot look at someone like her and how she moves and compare that to other billionaires and oligarchs.
I’m all for wealthy people paying their fair share. I hate capitalism and the current system but I do think she’s a good example of doing the best to be ethical within the current system
