for fucks sake… she has a whole song called the archer… leave him out of it for ONCE!! I BEG!!! 😩 why do they always have to attach everything she does to a man?!!!
so …taylor can’t be a good person bc of what her boyfriend’s best friend’s brother did. yeah. sure. that makes total sense and is a perfectly normal reason to hate someone u will never know.
This is a very complicated situation but I’m going to try to sum it up as best as I can. So basically Ethiopia is going through a civil war with the national Ethiopian troops + Eritrean troops on one side and fighters from the Tigray People’s Liberation Front on the other side

Tyreek Hill says he has not texted Patrick Mahomes since “they beat our ass.”
He texted Kelce but has not heard back from him, he’s “probably doing the Taylor Swift thing.”

A little background to how we got here:
Tigray is a small province in Ethiopia but it’s political party, the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), had most of the power over Ethiopia for nearly 30 years until Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed was elected in 2018
Ahmed actually won the Nobel Peace Prize for ending the decades long war with their neighboring country Eritrea. But the TPLF have accused him of overstaying his welcome by delaying Ethiopia’s elections because of COVID-19. So Tigray illegally hosted their own regional elections
This, along with an supposed attack on a Ethiopian national military base ( which Tigray claims never happened and it is a fabricated story) was the boiling point of decades of tension and started the war. Ahmed enlisted their new ally Eritrea to help fight TPLF
This is where the humanitarian crisis comes in:
Ethiopia’s national troops ( but mostly Eritrean troops ) are using rape, starvation and civilian massacres, as weapons of war against Tigray. They have systematically killed an estimated thousands of Tigrayans.
Keep this in mind: Tigrayans doesn’t necessarily mean citizens of Tigray, Tigrayans are an ethnic group. An ethnic group that troops are seemingly aiming to exterminate. Soldiers are looting and destroying Tigray’s food supply and farmlands.
Soldiers are also violently raping every Tigrayan woman they see. Countless women have been violently gang-raped. Their have been stories of mothers who have had their children shot in front of them and then proceeded to get gang-raped for days
UNICEF estimates that only ≈ 20% of Tigray hospitals are operating ( since most were destroyed in the war ). The hospitals are being overflowed with rape victims. Most with brutal injuries, STDs and one woman was even found with nails in her vagina
There is much more stigma surrounding rape compared to the U.S. so typically a far smaller percentage of victims seek help. Which means that the true amount of women who have been raped by women is staggering and somewhere in the 1000s. There is not enough safe house for the
Why is no one talking about this:
Ahmed trying to keep this a secret in order to save his reputation of being a peace maker and he is up for re-election soon. The government media access and there was a total shutdown of communication ( internet access, etc) for 6 weeks.
victims who do seek help. Hundreds of Tigrayans have been rounded up and massacred. Over 2 million people have been displaced. Over 60,000 Tigrayans are making the dangerous journey to seek refuge in Sudan. The borders are being guarded by soldiers so they have to sneak through
farmlands. Sudan, although accepting of the refugees, simply doesn’t have enough resources to support the refugees because they are going through an economic crisis themselves. Plus, Sudan is not necessarily a safe place either.
lol in case u are wondering, gaylors are no longer saying that tayvis is a PR contract to advance their careers but rather it is taylor’s form of “performance art”
@horrorlor
in 2016, we lost Prince, David Bowie and George Micheal. the worst US election, Brexit, mass hysteria of clown sightings. that year was roughhhh
what’s with this gaylor myth that travis has had gay rumors ? i’ve been a nfl fan all my life and have heard plenty of those rumors and literally not a single one was about travis
@anti_curs3
patrick mahomes is currently on trial for sexual assault with concrete evidence, video evidence of him assaulting a restaurant owner but taylor is ignoring it, and giving him the good press of being around him. she has been such a huge advocate for victims of sexual misconduct (1
the funniest gaylor theory is the “failed coming out”. like you are telling me that she didn’t come out on a day that she planned to, therefore she missed her only chance ever and she just decided to just live the rest of her life in the closet. like wdym “failed” ??
imagine watching your boyfriend play 18 holes of golf while burning in the sweltering hot sun then go to a dull charity auction then have your “fans” express concerns that you are a depressive alcoholic bc you’re not as cheerful as usual.
🚨| The floor and lower bowl are currently being evacuated due to lightning strikes nearby the stadium at today's show of Taylor Swift's 'The Eras Tour' in Sydney, Australia. Please stay safe and seek shelter for now
#SydneyTSTheErasTour
he had every right to tell then paparazzi to fuck off, but i do love his commitment to being publicly gracious as to not reflect poorly onto taylor. it really shows how much he values her and wants to protect her.
💬 | Travis Kelce on visiting the Sydney Zoo with Taylor and getting tracked down by the press:
"They helicoptered us. Well not us, Taylor. This is all because Taylor is the biggest and best thing possible"
@inthesilence13
this is realll rich coming from someone who ties taylor performing HER songs on HER tour to her non-existent ex girlfriends and her sexual orientations
this is the funniest thing a gaylor tweet of all time. they all claim to not give af if taylor is straight but then turn around and have an existential crisis at the slightest indication that she is.
@Inhumansoflate1
there are some valid points but the last part is simply untrue . Scott Brochetta owned Big Machine Records and taylor’s dad only invested in it after her contract was signed
not only do we have to
#RememberSlavery
and remember the victims of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. we must also remember that slave trade still exists in places such as Libya. the best we can do to honor the memory of 1800s slaves is save the slaves of the 21st century
Just remembered that the rescuers were able to drag those Thai kids through three hours of pitch-black claustrophobic underwater caves bc one of them was a veterinarian who suggested they inject the kids with syrettes of liquid ketamine every 45 minutes during the rescue
