Here’s what OP assumed you knew they meant to say:
TAYLOR SWIFT IS HETEROSEXUAL
just in case it wasn’t fucking clear
-
It’s so obvious too. Hetero: the other or opposite. Sexual: relating to sexuality. She’s the opposite of sexual. Heterosexuals are often aromantic but not always, which may be the origin of their confusion.

There are likely a number of very different takes involved, which may look the same at the surface level:
- Gay women crushing on her
- LGBTrenders latching on to someone popular
- Pro-LGBT activists who make everything they see about their cause
- Trolls stirring the pot
- Foreign powers stoking controversy
- Social media promoting anything and everything that drives engagement
- Anti-LGBT activists promoting it as another example of the gay agenda
I'm sure there are more, but the point is that people tend to feel a personal attachment to anything they agree with that becomes popular, using it as an example in their own mind proving that the world agrees with them, without actually knowing anything about what's really going on.

Edit: retracted. Apparently my reading comprehension sucks too.

What song?
-
Like a virgin

Thanks for your patience. The Voyager app doesn’t have notifications yet.
OK this is embarrassing but I thought OP was talking about a completely different artist and it only just clicked. I don’t know anything about Swift aside from the hook of “shake it off” which I’ve only heard a few times. I’ll retract the original comment.

why are we bringing up rebecca black in year of our lord two thousand twenty two plus two???
-
Because she's actually a good singer now. She took lessons and worked her ass off to git gud. Check out "Do You?" by her it's my favourite.
-
-
She should do an ironic cover of Gang Fight.
-
Meh, sounds like pretty standard pop singing. Lots of people can do that.
-
There's no way I'm clicking that link. The possibility of it being an elaborate Rick Roll type situation to get Friday stuck in my head, and I'm not willing to take that chance.
Edit: God damn, didn't realize Lemmy had so many Rebecca Black fans.
-
-
She's still out there doing her thing. She's made more music since and recentlyish been on other TV stuff. I saw her with very short colored hair on a Netflix original food show a couple weeks back. One of those cheap to make ameature food competitions.
-
So basically, covid happened and rebecca black returned as a queer icon with a friday hyperpop remix.

My reading comprehension has tanked during the pandemic.
I feel like I’m not alone, too.
I need to touch grass, honestly.
-
I feel that way sometimes, but then I read further and discover a lot of the time that the thing I thought I read wrong was simply written poorly or by an AI. It's hard to comprehend something that is incomprehensible, ya know?

-
Isn't she dating a professional football player?
-
She's not bi as best I'm aware.
But dating a dude isn't a disqualifying factor.

Because that site is a bunch of underage little siblings clamoring for attention like crabs in a bucket. 🤦🏼♂️
Unlike here where it's all embittered middle children in their 40s in their mom's basement
lol the dig at middle children got me. I don’t even know what it insinuates but it feels delightfully petty.
Fuck you I'm the youngest child and I'm in my 30s. And my mom doesn't even have a basement (I live in the attic)
Hey, I'll have you know I have a room above the garage. I have my dignity!
Excuse me buddy, I resemble that remark
You know when you get called out so hard you have to laugh your ass off? Like, give em the W, they earned it?
I don't know how to break this to you but its not 2016 anymore and Tumblr isn't as popular as it used to. Most of these are grown ass adults which absolutely atrocious reading comprehension.
This is also why Tumblr is tamer about social issues these days, all the pearl clutching teenagers who will cringe at their actions later in life are on Twitter.
Apologies, I meant underdeveloped.
