As a former Swiftie who struggled with pretty much everything in this essay, I adore this analysis.

I also couldn’t get myself to listen to a single song on The Tortured Poets Department (im so done) so thanks for telling me what I’m (not) missing!

Thank you so much! It’s nice knowing that another former swiftie feels the same way.
