No one does Easter eggs quite like Taylor Swift.

The singer's back catalogue is peppered with subtle(ish) nods to her lovers and friends - past and present - much to the delight of sleuthing fans

Outside of a nice set of gams I'm gob smacked as to understand what talent this kid posses.

I'm not a virtuoso but I've played drums and sang in bar bands, country western joints and took lessons from one of the greatest jazz drummers ever, Joe Morello. But this kid? Nice looks(that fades) nice legs but that's about it.

People do give a damn, but can ultimately separate their taste in music from politics. Which is a very healthy thing!

He has a podcast called Man Enough, about toxic masculinity. After the accusations, his feminist cohost, Liz Plank, left him.


“As woke as we both are we both know that this movie requires a certain aesthetic,” Lively says, adding: “Like when someone is about to start an athletic event, it’s their job to be in top shape [...] As much as I’d love to not think about it, that would be irresponsible and also impossible because it’s unrealistic to not acknowledge what I need to do.”

Lively described them both as woke, but you can see, she is trying to tone down his wokeness in the film.



What’s Behind Right-Wing Support for “Male Feminist” Justin Baldoni

branded himself as one of the country’s foremost male feminists

Megyn Kelly, observing that Baldoni’s public profile has been “kind of ridiculous with his toxic masculinity lamentations,”

As I said, you may have other tribal, primal, visceral/instinctual reasons for siding the way you do.

It’s becoming increasingly hard to find truly objective people these days. But thankfully, this case ignited that capacity as many acknowledge yeah “that guy, not my vibe, but sexual harasser? No. And he did not deserve to have his livelihood and legacy as an artist and filmmaker permanently ruined.”

Oh lookeee, the latest album from a 35 year old singing about romance and herself, mostly romances involving herself, to teen age girls.

Cause nothing says ick to a teen like when someone your Mom’s age sings to you about romance.

Aging out is beotch.

Ms. Swift is free to display her political and intellectual shoe size all she wants. But maybee she ought to explore other musical genres.

Politics is a transitory thing. What brings people ‘’to the barricades’’ today is just as soon yesterdays news and then the out rage fades.

Ultimately I feel music should be non political and about - fun.

She already moved from country to pop, but maybe at a certain age she has to move back to country.

Some years ago, I started getting MAXIM magazine in my mail. Never subscribed or anything, they just started showing up.

So one day one shows up, and my first thought was, why is a 14 year old boy on the cover of MAXIM?

It was Taylor Swift.

One of my best friends can sing the hell out of some singing, and Drum the hell out of some drumming. At the same time. His name is Brent Cash. Look him up, and tell him David sent you.

Not me. Justin Baldoni is the most woke person in Hollywood, and totally misandrist. This guy had a whole podcast saying women never lie, and men are always guilty. Why should I defend him. FAFO, buddy.

THIS. 100%. Woke men are worse than any feminazi. Let the traitor rot.

Taylor Swift sings whiny songs about bad boyfriends. Stevie Nicks made her boyfriend play guitar on songs where she sang about what an arsehole he was.

I think you have it backwards. What song are you referring to? I've never heard he was insulted by any of her songs, but she didn't like Go Your Own Way, and she had to sing on that. And she didn't "force" him to play on anything, he insisted on Fleetwood Mac taking her, if they wanted him.

Really? I couldn’t name one of her songs, never listen to her, and have no interest in anything she does. News about Taylor Smith is like news about Gender studies at the local community college. I couldn’t care less.

Silver Springs ... "you'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you!"
and FYI, the 1997 live version runs circles around the studio recording.

Thank you, I will. At this point in my life I really don’t get much chance anymore but I haven’t exactly retired either. I’m a left handed drummer. My high hat is to the right.

Used to get looks from other drummers and guitarists.

Even Joe Morello was ... amused.
