also before it starts - from ur friendly public sector worker there are absolutely limits on how much you should reasonably give to one organization. for most public sector financing and accounting, someone writing a check for $50 million is actually more of a problem than it is a help because the org will not have the capacity to spend it but "saving" it is incredibly difficult and can be very complicated for medium to small organizations. it's a lot of accounting and weirdness and the org might not have the staff to even do that. it's also not great for building a sustainable budget, which is something that other funding orgs will be looking for when they go out for other grants, etc. that's why nonprofits you donate to will vastly prefer $5 a month over $100 at once - they can build a budget around a reliable $5 a month. they can't do that if they're just hoping and waiting for $100 at a time here and there. the best practice for giving a significant sum to an organization is to work with the organization and determine how much they can reasonably receive that will pass through an audit and support their budget and operations. that might be $100K, it might be $100M, but it's up to the org! massive amounts at once are usually not the best! demanding to know why someone doesn't give $100M at once just proves you don't know what you're talking about!

Also say what the fuck you what about how Taylor Swift should be taxed (she is taxed, they invented a whole ass tax for her in Rhode Island) and I agree she should be. But ON TOP OF THAT, every single one of these charities she and Travis just donated to is related to a place she lives or has lived. She is literally paying into her community! Directly!!

“iTs pErForMaTiVe” there is physically $26 million more dollars in the hands of people who need it like at what point does that adjective mean legitimately nothing

once again i think a lot of people took folkmore and created a new version of taylor that doesn't exist and now they're upset that she's still in fact the huge whimsical theater dork she's always been since day one. she doesn't care about being edgy or cool, that's why we gravitated towards her in the first place lol

Do we think Scott’s going to be giving out guitar picks at the reception

do you know what? it becomes really hard to take any of the discourse surrounding taylor’s wedding seriously when you realise the same people who have spent the past however many days calling it “gauche” and “tacky” would drop everything to be in attendance if they themselves received an invite

genuinely insane how difficult it is to participate in your own life

I miss the era when people would say “it’s photoshopped” instead of “this is ai”

With photoshop I at least could respect the grind.

People will really be like, “I’m not a fan of Taylor Swift but here’s how I think she should live her life! And if she lives it any other way then that’s shocking and weird to me. Very out of character for who I invented in my head!”
