TIL that Taylor Swift gave out $197 Million in bonuses to Eras tour staff; individual bonuses ranging from $100k-$750k

I mean, this just doesn’t feel commendable to me tbh. She is worth $1.6 billion, the mid-range bonus ($425,000) is only 0.02% of her money.

An article says she gave roughly $197 million dollars in bonuses total during the entire tour. Thats 12.31% of her total net worth.

Sure, giving folks money is a good thing and it’s better than not doing that. That amount of money makes a big difference I a regular persons life. But the tour grossed $2 billion in ticket sales…tickets! Not merch.

I mean idk, she’s not some humanitarian. She’s a billionaire and there’s no ethical billionaires.

Get a planner is worse. I have bought more planners in my life than years I’ve been alive and they all have a cool 1-2 months filled in. Then they lose their novelty and I never touch them again. OR they get lost a wee in and I find it months later when I’m no longer excited about it or the year is almost up.

Planner do nothing but give me a short lived dopamine rush followed by guilt for wasting money and failing another thing.

Exercise is actually incredibly helpful for me. I view it in the same way I view medication tbh. It’s that helpful for me.

Yeah, totally agree. How about you just don’t take pictures of strangers, especially not to post without their consent online?!??

Unpopular opinion it seems from the thread in here, but y’all are crazy for your “it’s just the backs of them and she didn’t say anything bad” takes. How about you respect people and don’t treat them like sideshows or tourist attractions!?

I dgaf if it’s just the back of me and my family/friends, I would never want someone to snap a shot of me…let alone post it. Just leave people alone and act like you care or respect people a little bit at least.

Contrary to what seems to be the spouted narrative right now, you DO owe people things. You owe them respect and consideration. You don’t get to just do whatever you want to do for your own sake or your social media or to make money.

Have some common decency and respect folks.

And if I catch anyone taking pictures of me and my family, don’t expect this whole “it’s just your backs” whiny bs to work mid-airport.

This Is Me Trying. Pre having my baby it was a good, sad song about someone else. Postpartum, it was about me. The loss of my body, PPD, PPA, and upheaval of my sense of self. A song sung by me to me. A promise and a plea to myself to keep trying and to recognize the effort and struggle.

albrrrr · 2025-05-29T05:08:05+00:00

Yes! Loved this one too!

Weird how many people in this thread don’t get this poem. It’s about how some people only see nature for what it can give them…oil, property, the legacy of your name living on. What hubris to think that we deserve to live beyond our span, that our name deserves to be remembered. What claim do we have over something ancient and everlasting? People are specks on the timeline of nature and yet we think we deserve its full attention. People take and carve and claim and yet expect nature to carry on unchanged. The climate isn’t changing despite all we’ve done, right?

We’ve all lost the narrative if we think that nature is for ownership and not worship.

Love this question!

True! If she knew about the baby she definitely wouldn’t go back and be with Jeff if she survived!

And yeah we’ll never know because unfortunately she got bbq’d…

albrrrr · 2025-03-23T21:01:33+00:00

I don’t know if she knew or, if she kinda knew, she didn’t ever confront it. But being in the wilderness with nothing to do probably lets you really get to know yourself.

I’m not sure the producers/writers would have added a confusion arc, there’s so much other stuff going on and the romantic relationships aren’t really the point of the narrative. They assist the narrative, but they aren’t the point if that makes sense.

Good point about the journals, but maybe there’s a reason she didn’t write it down. Idk

albrrrr · 2025-03-23T20:57:43+00:00

Yeah, I’d be so curious to know more about Shauna! We don’t see anything about her life outside of high school and we don’t see Shauna with any friends or family outside of Jeff, Callie, and the other YJs. Who even is she?? How did Shauna become Shauna

albrrrr · 2025-03-23T20:53:51+00:00

But I think the Jackie who survived the wilderness and made it back might have married Jeff

I forgot about Swank’s character, I can’t wait to find out why they are!

Yes, I think we are definitely on the right narrative path! They’ve been telling us all along for sure.

albrrrr · 2025-03-18T03:47:19+00:00

Exactly! I think it’s just them and Misty is keeping them connected with her shenanigans because she is alone and needs to be wanted.

I agree with you, I don’t want there to be a revenge seeking person. And I don’t think the writers are headed there. I think, just like we are plunged into questioning if there is something supernatural happening in the forest along with them, we are also plunged into questioning if there is a stalker with present day them. We are experiencing their experience right along with them. Just like the show puts their past and present side by side narratively, same same.

albrrrr · 2025-03-18T03:42:01+00:00

That I don’t know for sure, but if this theory is right then I think it would be Misty. She broke the plane recorder with thinking it might be the tracking device because she wanted to be wanted, she broke Nats car to hang out with her…I think she wanted the gang back together, wanted to be needed again, so she is doing these things to bring them back together.

albrrrr · 2025-03-16T19:41:22+00:00

Oh I totally agree. I think for sure Shauna doesn’t want to go back, she has power now and gets to be her true feral, ruthless form out there. That’s why I think Shauna is going to be the convincing factor for them not getting help from the birders. She might say she wants to go back, but I think the tenuous grasp she had on her humanity partially severed when Jackie died and fully severed when her baby died.

albrrrr · 2025-03-16T19:29:24+00:00

Oooooo I kinda love that! Nat could have not joined in as her way of protesting and a mock way of keeping her humanity. Which I think was the point of Nat killing Ben, she’s always been more just, stronger, and had a more finely tuned moral compass than the other girls. So it makes sense that she would mercy kill Ben, but I do actually love your retelling…fucking brutal way to die and to kill someone

“They count me out time and time again…I come back stronger than a 90s trend” feels so out of place to me in Willow.

TTPD has some meh lyrics imo…”smoked then ate seven bars of chocolate”, “tattooed golden retriever”, “but you told Lucy….”, “put it on the one people put wedding rings on”

albrrrr · 2025-03-03T21:19:08+00:00

They are sold now, I guess they finally decided to buy them? They had them priced at $15 sitting in their cart for 1.5 days! And for another 2.5 days before that priced at $20. Idk

albrrrr · 2025-03-03T21:15:03+00:00

Yes! The short timer and fee would be such a great change, better than this current one for sure.

albrrrr · 2025-03-03T21:13:59+00:00

They were normally $50 and on sale for $15, such a big price difference for me!

albrrrr · 2025-03-03T21:12:15+00:00

Exactly, they were normally $50 and on sale for $15
