Another Reason I Really Like Marie Kondo Is That In Other Cleaning Shows The Host Will Looked Shocked

Hellooooooo

taylor swift, the archer

dusty springfield, all the king’s horses

L O L

Taylor: my love is a hoax, my love is a mythical thing, my love is a bait and switch, my love is a con. My love is an illicit affair, my love is a secret I'm hoping dreaming dying to keep. My love is a sin and people would burn me like a witch if they found out. I treat men like playthings and fool them and I'm not sorry about it. Sometimes I still think about the girls I was special best friends with in childhood, and at high school, and how perfect and beautiful they were. Don't read into it.

😹😹😹😹

Let’s go girls🌈👏🏼🌈👏🏼

Taylor Swift Accepts Woman of the Decade Award at Billboard's Women In Music: Read Her Full Speech

Taylor Swift was the first-ever recipient of Billboard's Woman of the Decade Award. You can read her full acceptance speech here.

Lately there’s been a new shift that has affected me personally and that I feel is a potentially harmful force in our industry, and as your resident loud person, I feel the need to bring it up. And that is the unregulated world of private equity coming in and buying up our music as if it is real estate. As if it’s an app or a shoe line. This just happened to me without my approval, consultation, or consent. 

After I was denied the chance to purchase my music outright, my entire catalog was sold to Scooter Braun’s Ithaca Holdings in a deal that I’m told was funded by the Soros Family, 23 Capital, and the Carlyle Group. Yet to this day none of these investors have ever bothered to contact me or my team directly. To perform their due diligence on their investment. On their investment in me. To ask how I might feel about the new owner of my art. The music I wrote. The videos I created. Photos of me, my handwriting, my album designs. And of course, Scooter never contacted me or my team to discuss it prior to the sale or even when it was announced.

I’m fairly certain he knew exactly how I would feel about it though. And let me just say that the definition of the toxic male privilege in our industry is people saying, ‘But he’s always been nice to me,’ when I’m raising valid concerns about artists and their rights to own their music. And of course he’s nice to you. If you’re in this room, you have something he needs.

The fact is that private equity is what enabled this man to think, according to his own social media post, that he could buy me. But I’m obviously not going willingly. Yet the most amazing thing was to discover that it would be the women in our industry who would have my back and show me the most vocal support at one of the most difficult times, and I will never, ever forget it. Like, ever.

thank you for stopping by anon 😌 and yes thank you re: the nda point, i didn’t word my last answer in a way that reflects that properly 😆

Young gorillas seen dismantling poachers' traps for the first time

Days after a poacher’s trap killed a young mountain gorilla in Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park, researchers have spotted something remarkable: two four-year old gorillas working together to dismantle similar snares in the area.

Some conservationists were approaching a poacher’s gorilla trap to destroy it when an actual gorilla stopped them and warned them off while two other gorillas came by and took the trap apart. They had to have thought the humans were going to get caught in it

Also they know what these traps are and are fighting back themselves
