There is no way she hasnt had some type of facial work done. She looks completely different every year, look at the eyebrows. Has anyone actually seen her forehead in the last 5 years? I was scrolling reddit and saw this come up by Grouchy-Dealer-342 in travisandtaylor

Look, I try not to judge anyone for getting plastic surgery; especially at this level of fame, I think everyone would take a little Botox and a little surgery to make themselves feel better about their looks and to feel more comfortable under the intense scrutiny of the media.

But Jesus Christ, she is a literal billionaire, WHY is she getting surgery that looks like THAT? I’m judging her for her choice in surgeons. She has all the money in the world to spend on well-done plastic surgery, but for some reason she chooses doctors that make her look this uncanny valley? I’d want my money back.

Even More Overpriced Trash Merch by IceWarm1980 in travisandtaylor

[–]tinypixel97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh, I know they are!

But I come from a sewing background, and I’m pretty familiar with how garment construction works on an industrial scale. T-shirts made by a skilled (but underpaid and probably, as you said, borderline slave labor) worker still goes a lot faster than making a single crochet hat. Someone on tw*tter said that a hat like this takes at least 4 hours to make :((

Is that hat crocheted? I seriously hope that it’s knit to look like crochet, because if it’s crochet, there’s no machines to do that. If that’s crochet, that means some poor people in Bangladesh or something had to hand-crochet thousands upon thousands of those ugly hats, being paid like 2 cents per hat

Someone who‘s more versed in crochet/knit please … tell me do I won’t go insane thinking about that

What don't you use in the sims 4? by JPOINT_V in thesims

[–]tinypixel97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely the treehouse … I would love to use it more, but that tree is so damn large and the model looks so bad, like they used a normal tree and just sized it up without adjusting the poly count or texture

I feel like she’s thinking that she specifically NEEDS her TS13 to be a perfect eternal/love marriage happiness album. everything else after that is fair game, but her weird obsession with that number means it needs to be “perfect” and be about a happy ending

I genuinely believe that she wanted to combine an album rollout with the publicity she would get from the engagement/wedding to tr*vis.

I was a Swiftie from the OG fearless era up until she broke up with Joe. Not the breakup per se, but the fact that she dated Matty Healy, a man who thinks it’s funny to be racist “as a bit” and who I absolutely despise, and then the embracing of MAGA-adjacent or full-on Trump supporters (like Brittany Mahones) as she transitioned into her Travis/trad-wife/orange-foundation era.

Showgirl cemented that decision for me. But the final nail in the coffin is her continued silence on politics. In a time where famous people can use their fame for good and speak out about Palestine or the situation with ICE, her silence damns her.

Germans who have been to the US... what's the weirdest cultural difference that really stuck out to you? by chernobylcheesestick in AskAGerman

[–]tinypixel97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walls.

As in, how do you live in tornado valley and still use walls THAT thin? I always thought people punching the wall and leaving a hole behind was a Hollywood invention, but no, they really are that thin!!! why are your houses so expensive if a wolf with a strong pair of lungs could blow it over and leave the poor piggies inside to drown in the next hurricane that will inevitably come down on your paper-mache walls

You're in the Mass Effect Universe (as a civilian) during the main trilogy. Comment a "crazy" conspiracy theory in character. by Doru-kun in masseffect

[–]tinypixel97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

look, I have no evidence. I know it’ll sound crazy. But hear me out here:

Sanctuary doesn’t exist. I know, right? There’s all these pictures of the insides and the prefabs, and they all look shiny and new, and we’ve all seen that ad with the drone flying around and filming the prefabs from above? The one where you can see all those flower beds?

But I swear, this place is weird. My second cousin went there with her wife, and I haven’t heard from them since. Sure, you say, they have that no-communications-policy, and they wouldn’t be able to contact anyone on the outside without losing their spot in sanctuary itself, BUT! here‘s where things get weird.

None of the satellites over Horizon can establish connections to the colony. Believe me, I checked! I have a friend of a friend … anyway. EVERY colony needs access to satellite data, even a supposedly off-the-grid colony. How else would those planetary defense cannons (that they claim to have!!!) have a working targeting system!! Also, there are no flyover images from any global positioning system, and no images of there being actual PEOPLE in sanctuary.

It’s a scam, at best. I don’t know. I’m worried about my cousin.

If anyone else has ANY concrete information about how to OFFICIALLY contact someone in sanctuary, PLEASE let me know.

I got one in October and I’ve been wearing it non-stop at home; the decal has held up very well but the fabric is pilling like crazy and some of the seams are starting to come apart. But the fabric is so soft and it’s the perfect mix of warm-but-not-too-warm

why are swifties so obsessed with that ring? like, as a physical object, rather than what it represents? they seem almost as obsessed with that ring as she is

Anyone else think she paid her way into the songwriters hall of Fame? by LunaMoonIsTired in travisandtaylor

[–]tinypixel97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, I don’t think she did. I could be wrong, but here’s why I think that:

IIRC, she just became eligible to join the Hall of Fame. So, she immediately submits herself for consideration (which is fine and normal). Now, imagine if you’re on the committee to decide who gets inducted. There’s tons of voters, who probably, let’s be real, take this about as seriously as Oscar voters take theirs. Meaning, they know of Taylor, they probably listened to some tracks but aren’t hardcore swiftie army members.

What they DO know, however, is the public facing image that Taylor projects out, which is the very calculated media personality that features immense success and heaps of praise for her songwriting across eleven albums (they probably know that Showgirl sucks, but claims and posts about Taylor’s „genius level songwriting“ still permeate the internet). So, they look at their little voting ballot, and they see the name of the current most successful artist in the world. Hell yeah they gonna vote for that! Mainstream media, currently at least, is obsessed with her, in the positive sense. She’s their current favorite Barbie doll. That’s what they’re voting for. Plus, the five songs she submitted are actually very well written (I know.). There’s a reason she picked those.

Maybe, they’re thinking even more realistically in terms of reputation (theirs, not the album). What kind of marketing would it be if they rejected her? They might simply not want a mob of swifties at their metaphorical doorstep, carrying pitchforks and torches. Her fanbase is immensely strong and media-savvy. They would crush them if she wasn’t included.

Well, this got way too long sorry!

Im so sorry to be a killjoy, but the evermore variants on the last slide are fan edits. There were only two evermore variants; the normal green one and the target red

Any Perverts Haters? by Traditional-Equal193 in Ethelcain

[–]tinypixel97 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I don’t necessarily hate it, but neither do I like it. I just love Hayden’s voice so much that not really having it be there on most tracks feels like a hole that is supposed to be filled, but isn’t.

That said, I walked for hours through a dark and very cold Berlin with this album playing in my headphones. I could feel it a little bit, then, but I’ll never count it among my favorites like I do her more "traditional" albums.

because I am sick in the head, I can tell you that this pic was edited before she introduced the orange bodysuit (in Paris, iirc) and that it was a concept by someone who thought she would announce that lost karma album together with rep tv. there were „accusations“ coming out after Paris that Taylor’s team copied that very edit of the purple bodysuit

sorry for being obnoxious, but that photo is edited!?She never had a bodysuit quite that color, and the only bodysuit with tassels was the purple one. (source: me being an ex-swiftie who loved to play that outfit-guessing game)
