In their worst of the VMAs section they talk about Taylor's Best Director "win":

"The pre-recorded tribute to Swift's ambitious directorial pursuits—and a dedication to reminding the world about "ME!"—oversold the artistic enthusiasm she actually brought to the table. She mentioned "music videos" nine times in her Artist Director Honors acceptance speech, but couldn't expand on why the medium means so much to her. She said over a montage of her video sets that she "never wants to do anything but make stuff," then never got into the finer details. But the pieces have been rearranged so many times, in such stronger sequences, "Patient Zero" and Tay's speech felt like further confirmation the Swiftieverse needs a fallow year."

No she doesn't.

WE need the vacation, not Taylor. I'm now accepting venmo/paypal donations for my much deserved trip.

Are you leaving the fanbase?

Ever since Fearless (Taylor's Version) she has been operating on autopilot. It turned her into a even bigger force than before but sadly also at the expense of the quality we are used to from her.

Go to Cleveland Taylor.

It means she's not the artisté she's trying to portray herself to be, she's not a good director, she can't talk eloquently about her own art.

I am curious to see what happens to this massive economy of snark and clickbait that is centered around her. All the influencers and reporters who churn out dozens of pieces every time she sneezes will be out of a job if she actually disappears.

And Pitchfork needs to get out of that basement that Halsey speaks of.

omg the Tayconomy is so vast, she's single handedly keeping the lights on at Pitchfork at this point with the AMOUNT of think pieces they do on her lmao

and then there's the rest of all these snark commentator types

I'd say let her and her fans live in the world they created for themselves... if it wasn't for the impact she had in the way charts operate, and the corrupted way we consume physical media today.

Pitchfork needs a vacation.

How would they engagement farm then?

We need a vacation from Taylor

They are begging her to do a Dua Lipa

I suggest a Rihanna-style 10 years (and counting) hiatus. Please.

She and all the billionaires ruining this planet need a guillotine not a vacation

FixedT

Lol she won't take that vacation

Taylor's life is releasing music and charting

The only thing she can do to fix it is releasing good music

Best case scenario I see is her releasing debuting Debut TV and Reputation TV next year and TS13 in 2028 but even that sounds like a huge break for her

Im expecting TS13 in September 2027 with a June announcement to capture pre-orders

Pitchfork really is making sure to profit as much as they can out of her name, uh?

I mean they're right that the quality went down over the years and I'm not a Showgirl stan myself but I find it hard to take Pitchfork seriously because of the catty/snarky drags they do on her, just feels juvenile

the whole planet needs a break from her. preferable for at least 15 years.
