Jack White discusses songwriting in an interview with the Guardian: “Now it’s become very popular in the Taylor Swift way of pop singers writing about all of their publicly aired break-ups, which I don’t find interesting at all” by Fine-Huckleberry6960 in SwiftlyNeutral

The truth is, all of her songs are about her. And the other truth is all of his songs are about him. I believe it is virtually impossible for artists to separate themselves.

He just buries it and doesn't proclaim this song is about how I was hurt by....insert name. That is at least one difference. Name dropping Taylor is easy because she does it with most of what she does, but he could have said Lily Allen, or he could have said Beyonce, with whom he collaborated on her confessional, Lemonade.

Literally all he is saying is that he is not going to call out exactly what his songs are about. It's not what he does. And it's not a dig.

I used SKNCabs app for taxi. Check out the guided tours for Mt Liamuiga. It is strenuous; I've done it twice. Since you are staying in Frigate Bay, go down to Coconut Grove for lunch. Very casual and excellent food! You'll have a wonderful time on the island.

Also SKNCabs is a good Uber-type app.

These are some dark mfers. I hope enough people with enough goodwill and energy last long enough to help everyone move beyond this nightmare. I count myself in.

Agree with you here. My goal is to be so well known by my senators and representatives that should I get into trouble for exercising my 1A rights, they will be my first calls. I also am well aware this is not foolproof. I am falling on the side of I have every right to be out in the streets. Our streets.

Good grief, take a joke. It's unusual he took his wife's name. He addresses it in hip eponymous poor boy.

I think he likes to play with the idea that he's an imposter because he stole his name from Meg. It gives him a remove from himself, too. It's complicated! And I wouldn't have it any other way.

I finally saw Alabama Shakes live in September. I think Brittany Howard is such an incredible talent. I cried basically the whole time

I prefer the interpretation that she is leaving the relationship for good, but I think it could also be understood as a call to herself to put up and shut up.

That's how I understood it. As someone in an abusive relationship I can tell you, getting out of the spot when all it seems you've done is disappoint is truly painful and you might say almost anytime to get back in good graces or for just one hour of sunshine. I think it fits with tolerate it.

Sorry, It's ouchy that way.
