There's a lot of speculation that Taylor will announce 1989 TV at the Detroit show and am I the only one who doesn't really want that to happen? I understand that she wants to own her albums as soon as possible but I also want Speak Now to get its own moment. Not necessarily a massive era, but I don't want another album to be announced before it's even released.

When Tina Turner left her first husband - who was also her boss, captor, and brutal tormentor - she snuck out of their Dallas hotel room with a single thought in her mind: "The way out is through the door." From there she fled across the midnight freeway, semi-trucks careening past her, with 36 cents and a Mobil gas card in her pocket. As soon as she decided to walk out that door, she owned nothing else. When she filed for divorce, she made an unusual request. She didn't want anything: not the song rights, not the cars, not the houses, not the money. All she wanted was the stage name he gave her - Tina - and her married name - Turner. This was the name by which the world had come to know her, and keeping it was her only chance to salvage her career. Things could have gone a lot of ways from there. She could have labored in obscurity for decades, maybe making records on small labels to be prized by vinyl connoisseurs in Portland. She could have stayed in Vegas, where she first went to get her chops back up, and worked as a nostalgia act. And, of course, given what she had been through, she might have … not made it. What happened instead is that Tina Turner became the biggest global rock star of the 80s. I'm old enough to barely remember this, but if you aren't, it was like this: The Rolling Stones would headline a stadium one day, and the next day it would be Tina Turner. A middle-aged Black woman - she became a rock star at 42! - sitting atop the 1980s like it was her throne. She managed this because of whatever rare stuff she was made of (this is a woman whose label gave her two weeks to record her solo debut, Private Dancer, which went five times platinum); because she decided to speak publicly about her abusive marriage and forge her own identity, and in doing so give hope and courage to countless women; and also because - in a perhaps unlikely twist for a girl from Nutbush, Tennessee - she had her practice of Soka Gakkai Nichiren Buddhism, to which she credited her survival. She remained devout until the end. Tina's second marriage - to her, her only marriage - was to Edwin Bach, a Swiss music executive 16 years her junior. Of him, she said, "Erwin, who is a force of nature in his own right, has never been the least bit intimidated by my career, my talents, or my fame." In 2016, after a barrage of health problems, Tina's kidneys began to fail. A Swiss citizen by then, she had started preparing for assisted suicide when her husband stepped in. According to Tina, he said, "He didn't want another woman, or another life." He gave her one of his kidneys, buying her the remainder of her time on this earth and perhaps closing a cycle which took her from a man who inflicted injury upon her to a man willing to inflict injury upon himself to save her from harm. Born into a share-cropping family as Anna Mae Bullock in 1939, she died Tina Turner in a palatial Swiss estate: the queen of rock 'n roll; a storm of a performer with a wildcat-fierce voice; a dancer of visceral, spine-tingling potency and ability; a beauty for the ages; a survivor of terrible abuse and an advocate for others in similar situations; an author and actress; a devout Buddhist; a wife and mother; a human being of rare talent and perseverance who, through her transcendent brilliance, became a legend.

a late entry, but heavy contender for tik tok of the year

In my heart of hearts, Ezra Fitz is still A

And this is my take on how it should’ve went down

Keep reading

Its apparently 2013 and not 2023

Because Supernatural, Pretty Little Liars, and Panic! At the Disco are all trending

oh boy, do i love the irony in this

i’m going to need the crowds to scream “taylor, you’ll be fine” as loud as humanly possible next weekend, bringing her some much-needed comfort and making her feel immensely loved and cared for in the process

Saw a post like this with negative outlook so I asked for it to be fixed

Me, before reading ACOSF: Who is this Gwyn person and why is half the fandom shipping her with Azriel???

Me, after reading ACOSF & the Azriel bonus chapter: I have accepted this ship as my Lord and Saviour no other ship is above them I will live and breathe them for the rest of my existence

Gwynriel headcanons that must become CANON in the next acotar book

(please skitter away if you hate this ship, thank you :D)

Nyx: Uncle Az, why have you forbade me from entering the delicious chamber?

Cassian and Gwyn, holding back laughter:

Nesta, shaking her head: 

Azriel: It’s called an oven and you will die.

Nyx, puffs up little chest: I am strong, Uncle. 

the more you go down the list of who this part might be comparing nesta to, the more disturbing it gets.

to mor? because fuck nesta for being cold when mor endured worse and is (debatably) nice? ignoring the fact she had 500 years to deal with her shit while nesta is fresh out of poverty? not to mention how this book is supposedly about mental health yet sets ridiculous standards for the traumatized and reinforces the idea of there only being one acceptable way to have trauma.

to eris? because they both could have done something? feyre can't cook. so riddle me this, who the fuck was cooking? not feyre. feyre was out hunting all the time. so who did the housework? not feyre. who chops their wood? not. feyre.

to mor's family? because what? being cold equates to literal torture? fuck rhysand, i feel like i don't say that enough. fuck him. needless to say the passage compares feyre and mor to act like rhysand has valid reasons for being just a huge fucking dick. 'where her failings were concerned' shut up. she's not your goddamn mother. she, a child, had no responsibility to parent another child.

acting like he has any right to be angry at anyone on feyre's behalf. like he was not the origin of her sexual trauma, like he didn't assist in amarantha traumatizing her. take a fucking backseat, rhysand, and think about what you did.

Engulfed In Your Flames

Chapter 3: Nesta

TW: Depression and Suicidal Thoughts

“What?” Cassian exploded. “You can’t be serious.” 

“You all told me it was either that or the House. Well, I choose the human lands.” Nesta barely spared Cassian a glance. She was too filled with anger and betrayal to bother. She noticed his red siphons glow in anger out of the corner of her eye, but she paid no attention to it. 

I have no regrets in my life, but this. That we did not have time. That I did not have time with you, Nesta. I will find you again in the next world—the next life. And we will have that time. I promise.

Nesta blocked out those memories of her and Cassian on the battlefield, of his empty words and promises and their only kiss. She blocked them and shoved them deep in the cobwebs of her mind where she hoped they would never resurface and see the light of day. She turned to Feyre, who was unnaturally still and quiet, completely at odds with the stern and determined High Lady she had been trying to be mere moments ago. Her eyes were filled with unshed tears. Nesta couldn’t find it in herself to care, not after they pulled this phony and pathetic intervention.
