I had no idea who I was going to post or what I was going to write today. Usually for Valentines I try to put up something that indicates the day, I try to be a little hopeful because I know for a day about love it is really a day about heartbreak for a lot of people. And you know, if that’s you, you should hang in there. It’s just a day, don’t let it get to you. This year I hadn’t really thought about it though because yesterday was Friday the 13th and I am strange enough as a person that that was a much bigger deal to me than what today is. Anyway, the universe provided an answer in the form of Taylor Swift turning out to be an amazing person. Signs kind of pointed that way anyway. I saw this article about her helping out a fan on tumblr who was going through a break up. The article points out it is good advice and it is but I would say it is crucial advise, the part where she tells the girl to block the guys number because the guy sounds like a verbally abusive dick to me and I happen to assume he was probably always a dick. Either way it says just amazing things about Taylor that she did this. It’s interesting, the way she has evolved in the minds of people, in my mind. And I don’t know her, obviously, but I feel like there has to be a lot of growth as a person there on her part. I mean, we all grow hopefully and part of it is that a 25 year old is light years more mature than a 19 year old. But also she is someone who has taken just a shit storm of crap over the years. I mean, being beautiful and talented is a pretty good panacea for dicks all over the internet criticizing you but it still can’t feel good to have just legions of people talking shit about you constantly. And I know people, like personally who have had rough stretches and it kind of goes two ways. They become bitter dicks who can’t wait to inflict their pain on the world or it gives them boundless empathy and because they know what it’s like to hurt they want to help others. It seems like Taylor Swift has that empathy part because I follow her on tumblr and follow news about her on tumblr and since she’s joined it’s become pretty apparently how genuinely compassionate she is. She really seems to go out of her way simply to make other people’s lives better. And that’s awesome. And maybe that is what this Valentine’s day should be about. Love isn’t only romantic you know, there is a good chance your fellow man could use some love, why don’t you see what you can do. I guess just start asking yourself what would Taylor Swift do in this situation. Then realize you probalby can’t write a really catchy song so settle for something a little less ambitious. But do it. Today I want to fuck Taylor Swift.
