REBLOG for The Infernal Devices LIKE for The Dark Artifices COMMENT for the The Mortal Instruments
i feel like the people who were really loud and attacking Taylor during all of 2016 and the #taylorswiftisoverparty are gonna be backtracking and belittling the situation sooo hard right now like “guys it was so long ago lets all move on” and “wow y’all still care about this? lol” and like? yeah, it’s important. it almost ended a hard-working woman’s career all because y’all used her for a scapegoat for your anger during the shitty year that was 2016 AND believed one of the most egotistical, brainwashed, manipulative men in the world, simply because you needed a reason to hate her that badly.
because of that goddamn phone call, that we now have the full 25+ minute, unbiased, uncut, unmanipulated version of and can see/hear how rude and manipulative kanye was, telling her how hard he worked on the song and his wife loves the lyric and how important it is that he releases it, and how truly uncomfortable Taylor was, trying to make it better all while still trying to respect him and his career and still remain friends (ALL WHILE NEVER SAYING A FLAT OUT YES TO ANYTHING). She even corrected him saying “i made her famous” by saying “fearless sold 7 million before [the VMA interuption] so”, yet he still had y’all thinking he had approval?
this woman went into hiding for almost 3 years, questioned her whole life and career, was being told by the entire world she should just die (someone even made a mural to prove that y’all went that far), was called a snake by the public and was called some sexist, bullshit words (like controlling, witchy, etc.), everything she did was now seen through the bias lense of “oh well she’s playing the victim”, was told her feelings were invalid and manipulative and caused her great trauma and she actually said that this whole ordeal damaged her psyche… all because y’all were immature adults who lashed out on a woman no one even actually knows.
fuck anyone who tweeted “#taylorswiftisoverparty”, anyone who said she was playing the victim, anyone who called her manipulative, a snake, a liar, whatever… y’all were wrong and just decided to be okay with a grown adult man saying taylor was a bitch and “they would still have sex” even though she was proven not comfortable with it (later to even portray her naked body through a wax figure unconsented to the whole world) …. simply because that’s what everyone else was doing. get back in your goddamn cages you fucking sheep.
I just wanna know and I feel like we should put this out in the open instead of being ashamed 😂
I truly just cannot comprehend how taylor swift's brain works. like who comes up with "your touch brought forth an incandescent glow, tarnished but so grand" and "I'd meet you where the spirit meets the bones, in a faith forgotten land" and "my pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand" and "I wish to know the fatal flaw that makes you long to be magnificently cursed" all in the same song??? wtf??
BUT HE HAD 7 KIDS AND A WIFE TO FEED SO HE ENDED UP OWNING A GROCERY STORE AFTER SERVING IN WW2
TODAY MY DAD WAS CLEANING THE HOUSE AND FOUND SOME PENCIL DRAWINGS THAT MY GRANDPA DID AND ASKED IF I WANTED TO HAVE THEM AND I

MY GRANDPA NEVER BECAME A FAMOUS ARTIST
BUT I WANT TO MAKE HIM KNOWN
The first time Feyre was painted and dressed up by the shadow sisters, so Rhysand could take her to the midsummer party, I noticed this sentence: “My hair was coiled around a small golden diadem imbedded with lapis lazuli.”
Let me over analyse and explain why this sentence is significant. When Rhysand brings Feyre into the throne room all she can think about is how debased she looks with her sheer gown. In her mind Amarantha looks better because she’s dressed modestly. But lets forget about the dresses for a moment and look at what’s on Feyre’s head and not on Amaranthas, a diadem. What is that exactly? Well a diadem is a type of crown usually worn by monarchs, an emblem for regal power and dignity. Not only did Rhysand give Feyre a CROWN but a crown with a lapis lazuli. What’s the big deal about lapis lazuli, you ask?
Well, Lapis Lazuli is historically one of the most sought after stones. It has always symbolized the starry night (so basically the night court). Also, if you believe in crystals having some sort of “powers” lapis lazuli is often used for its strong emotional components, known for helping people overcome abuse, trauma, depression and grief (Which clearly Feyre needs help with).
Let’s also not forget the discussion between Rhysand and Amarantha when they stroll into the throne room. “What have you done with my captive?” she said but her smile doesn’t reach her eyes. “We made a bargain… one week with me at the night court every month in exchange for my healing services…for the rest of her life.” This was Rhysand telling Amarantha that Feyre is his and not hers. Not only did Rhysand save the life of the human that Amarantha wants dead, he waltzed right up to the foot of her throne, and in front of all the courts, announced not so subtly that he thinks Feyre is going to beat Amarantha and he’s going to support her through it all. Feyre was so wrapped up in her concern over Tamlin that she believed this whole thing was just a way for Rhysand to torment him, when in reality it had nothing to do with Tam. It was Rhysands way to say to Amarantha that her reign won’t last forever. This was Rhysand rebelling against his abuser.
Day 08- Elorcan.
i do not know a SINGLE person, not even out of my friends, not even out of the most woke people on this damn site, that only likes unproblematic things. every single one of us likes something that’s fucking garbage. so some of y’all can climb down off your high horses and stop competing for the “least problematic” award honest to god.
I drew Elide and Lorcan as a commissions, and I had so much fun coloring this!
