imagining a Taylor song about Elon
When there's no Taylor song for exactly how I feel, sometimes I ask ChatGPT to help.
Tumblr media
Response
and
(an imaginary song: lyrics from ChatGPT; inspo from Taylor Swift)
(Verse 1) In a world full of whispers, I stand tall on my own, I've faced the doubters, the critics, but I've never been dethroned, Like rockets in the sky, they shoot their words to bring me down, But I found the strength within me, and I've learned to wear my crown.
(Pre-Chorus) I don't need a man to lean on, I've got my own ambitions, I'm a force of nature, breaking through the old traditions.
(Chorus) And I stand strong, fearless, with my team beside me, I'm a warrior queen, we're a powerful alliance, And they can try to break us, but we won't let them win, We'll rise above, we'll show them love, we'll conquer from within.
(Verse 2) I've fought my battles, faced my fears, I've walked through fire and rain, But every time I've stumbled, I've risen up again, Electric words surround me, like a storm that never parts, But they don't know the power, that lies within our hearts.
(Pre-Chorus) I don't need a man to lean on, I've got my own ambitions, I'm a force of nature, breaking through the old traditions.
(Chorus) And I stand strong, fearless, with my team beside me, I'm a warrior queen, we're a powerful alliance, And they can try to break us, but we won't let them win, We'll rise above, we'll show them love, we'll conquer from within.
(Bridge) I am a phoenix, rising from the ashes of doubt, They can't control me, they can't hold me, I won't be held down, Renaming me with grace, now I soar to greater heights, I'll forge my own path, and leave them in the dust, as I take flight.
(Chorus) And I stand strong, fearless, with my team beside me, I'm a warrior queen, we're a powerful alliance, And they can try to break us, but we won't let them win, We'll rise above, we'll show them love, we'll conquer from within.
(Outro) So here's to every woman, finding strength in adversity, We're powerful, we're capable, we're rewriting history, And as we break the chains, and shatter expectations, We'll rise above, we'll show them love, and build our own foundations.
Prompt
Today's news mentions that Taylor Swift avoided an allegedly fraudulent securities deal (worth $100,000,000) by careful analysis of its legality. I realize that ChatGPT does not know about today's news, and only knows about 2021 and earlier: this is not important to my question. Elon Musk commented on today's news by stating "Taylor is smart and her father is a well-regarded investment banker." The part of that quote beginning with the word "and" is controversial. Many people feel that Elon Musk's comment devalues women by implying that she was not capable of this analysis on her own, and needed a man (her father) to help. For example, replies to Elon Musk include "This just screams. 'Taylor is smart and a good girl who listens to her daddy' it's yucky asf" and "As if she couldn't know about securities on her own? She's 33 not 13." and "Look at the way he immediately undercut her by talking about her father." and "She's a grown woman, yet he's creepily talking about her father." Can you please write a song titled "and" (in the style of Taylor Swift songs) with a theme of a powerful woman who can overcome business challenges without relying on her father, husband, or boyfriend for assistance?
(The prompt references u/Recentlydisabled u/tswiftdeepcuts u/Bootastic88 u/Entire_Apartment_289 from the reddit.com/r/TaylorSwift/comments/12rj0na/elon_musk_on_taylor_not_partnering_with_ftx/ comments.)

GH Tweet Aug 8th 2022: Some more happy in the end fun facts- I actually STARTED writing it about the internet. Deadass. I started writing when I was off social media in a pandemic when everyone was turning to social media for comfort. “I can feel you forgetting me, might just disappear”
I really felt like I didn’t exist. The internet was my job, my outlet, the only way I was really able to socially communicate since I was 12 or 13. Letting go was painful and challenging. Doing it in quarantine- I *didn’t exist.* the days bled into each other.
I was high all the time & in a constant state of fear. Time was slipping away- I had no idea where my life and career was headed. “But we’re older now, what happened to the days? We’ve been runnin out of time just like the leaves back east will change” (later changed to “we’ll”)
It actually started as a poem about how loss will always lead to something better, then emerged later as a song
I def pulled inspo from a breakup- well, all my breakups actually, starting from the first one way back as a wee teen. But this song is and always has been so much greater to me than any relationship with a guy. It’s my relationship with ME. & God which IS your very highest self.
The last verse was written first, it was given to me as a gift, a message from .:*above- “I’ll be your ghost, or I’ll be your best friend, just need to know you’re happy in the end.” 🤟💕

Ask For Writers
A bunch of thanks to @theisolatedlily and @soldouthaz for tagging me. This was fun!
1. Describe how you first started writing and when you first posted: My high school English teacher always encouraged me to write and that’s how it started. I wrote a lot of poetry before starting fiction/fan-fic and started posting earlier this year.
2. Which of your characters do you typically resonate most closely with? Do you base any characters off of yourself? Every character I write has a part of me, not just in the writing sense but also some traits of mine. I tend to write from Harry’s pov or any other character that is Louis’ romantic interest in the story, entirely because it’s a lot easier to write about Louis rather than as him.
3. Where do you often find inspiration? Real life mostly. Songs, movies and books as well.
4. Has quarantine helped or hindered your writing process? Didn’t notice much of a difference really.
5. Do you listen to music/noise while you write or do you prefer silence? I prefer silence when I write, helps me focus. Rarely do I find a song that fits perfectly with a scene so I have that on repeat until I can’t.
6. What is your biggest writing pet peeve in your writing or in general? People who say only authors with popular works deserve to be called writers.
7. Describe your ideal writing setup ink stains on my hand, fountain pen scribbling smoothly over the paper and a lamp as the only source of light. Somewhere warm and cozy.
8. Favourite time of day to write? Dawn and after midnight.
9. Favourite genre to write + one you’d like to try writing in the future? Horror, fantasy, magical realism, historical and dark elements. Sci-fi is a genre that is way out of my comfort zone so probably that.
10. Do you struggle with writer’s block? How do you typically overcome it? All the bloody time lmaoo. Usually I stick to songs that I enjoy listening, switch genres or plots to overcome the block.
11. What is the easiest part of your writing process and the most difficult? Everything other than outlining is my fav part. Outlining is one pain in the ass.
12. How do you come up with original characters? (If applicable) real life is where the key is.
13. What is your favourite and least favourite word? Least fav: moist fav: tasavvur (it’s an Urdu word that translates into imagination or contemplation)
14. What is one thing about your writing that you’re really proud of and one thing you hope to continue working at? I’m really glad I can paint the imagery of a scene quite well. Paragraph starters is what I’m working on atm.
15. What work of yours has your favourite ‘verse/world building? How did you come up with it? The Blood of Love is one of my best work and I say this very humbly. The atmosphere, the themes, the overshadowing, everything I wrote of it, I absolutely love it and am proud of it.
16. What font and size do you write in? Single spaced or double? Georgia, 11, single spaced.
17. What is a typo(s) you find yourself making consistently? Leaving out apostrophise.
18. (If applicable) do you separate fic writing from fandom? Most of the times. When I’m writing canon, I look into the fandom for inspo.
19. What emotion is you’re favourite to write? Which is the most difficult? Fear is my fav emotion to write, as weird as that sounds. I find writing humour very challenging.
20. What is one thing you hope readers always take away from your works? Writers put a lot of their time into fics and appreciation for the work is always heart-warming. Other than that, I wish more people noticed the overshadowing and metaphors used.
21. What is the best and worst writing advice you’ve ever received? No writing advice is bad. What may work for one may not be suited for other. You may not like what you’ve written today but you can always come back and edit it to your likeness.
22. Which one of your works would you most want to see turned into a film/television show? The Blood of Love for sure! Also a wip: inked memory aka ghost rider au
23. Do you write scenes chronologically or out of order? I write whichever scene I want to and then align them chronologically.
24. How do you handle criticism? Honest and genuine criticism is always welcomed, not spiteful J
25. What is the advice you would give to someone who is looking to start writing? Write because you want and not because you have to. Forcing it won’t do any good. It’s alright to not write when you don’t feel like it but don’t let that get you lazy.
26. What kind of feedback on your work always makes your day? Repeating myself here hehe but when readers notice the foreshadowing and metaphors I use, it brings the biggest smile on my face
27. Which fic ‘verse of your own would you most like to exist in? Which fic’s characters would you most like to befriend? The Blood of Love is a universe I’d love to exist in. Louis’ character from my estranged actor au and Harry from tbol really speak to me.
28. What do you always enjoy getting asks about/wish people would ask about more? Backstories about my characters and fic and my imagination. It runs wild lol
29. What has writing added to your life? How has it changed you? It’s helped me a lot to see from other people’s perspective and read body language in a better way.
30. Why do you write? It helps organize my thoughts and be more coherent in a way that imp not when speaking.
Boost yourself + tags! 
1a. share the last sentence you wrote "Before sunset," he says. It's not entirely true. Part of him wishes he could go now but Harry isn't sure if he'd be able to survive without kissing Louis.
2a. describe the wip you’re most excited about: the sequel to The Blood of Love!! We’re gonna get Zayn out, we’re gonna make zourry suffer a little and some zarry beef. And ofc, loads on magic, horror and dark elements.
3a. share the piece of dialogue from one of your works you’re most proud of: “Falling in love with you was never a choice, Louis,” Harry says through his tears.
4a. share the best first and last lines from your work(s): “Of all the things Louis’ done in his life, falling in love with Harry is perhaps the easiest thing he ever did.” — first line
“Louis flushed but dived in for another kiss, sealing this newfound happiness with the kiss of their love.” — last line.
5a. link the last fic you read. Don’t remember which one it was, sorry.
6a. link the last work you published: Cant link the blff yet so The Blood of Love it is.
7a. link to your ao3 (if applicable): Mugglemirror
8a. someone that inspires you: Can I say Louis? I’m saying Louis. And Taylor!
9a. a comfort fic/work that you’ve been grateful for this year: I haven’t done much reading this year, fandom wise but I’m really looking forward to read all the amazing blff fics.
10a. other writers that you’d like to tag! @yvesaintlourent @thepolourryexpress @lads-laddylads @babieloui @falsegoodnight @ashleyjohnsonfanaccount @allwaswell16

CONFETTI RANKING NO ONE ASKED FOR <3 But firstly can I just say their team literally said so what girl group era are yall taking inspo from? And little mix literally just said yes <3 UISDJOKOISADJ THE I N F L U E N C E S ON THIS ALBUM AHHHHHHHH i think it also sucks that c**** definitely took a toll on the album and i honestly think it was supposed to be released sooner BUT nevertheless it’s here now and i was sO PLEASED AND IM SO PROUD OF THESE GIRLS living their past life having all the fun with this album so let us go!!
1. Confetti. A powerful feel good song. Like this is THE Bad bitch anthem, like I can’t wait to be driving at night with my girlies blasting this. IT’S SO FUCKING GOOD. I love when the instrumental strips away on jade’s verse and it’s just the snaps BEAUTIFUL. Some of the melodies in here were definitely a shout out to girl groups like cherish and destiny’s child and holy fuck it WORKED. T H A T BRIDGE. LIKE. UGH. Vocally it’s a lot more stripped back than the rest of the album, and yet it’s still my favorite?? I think that speaks so much to Little Mix’s musicality. They don’t need insane vocals (even though they DEFINITELY HAVE THEM) to make a good song, like they know what works and they prove it every single time.
2. Sweet Melody. This song is so fucking clever. I know everyone has already talked about the way the instrumental literally follows the words, but IT’S SO CLEVER I’M MENTIONING IT AGAIN. Jade’s verse will forever be my favorite. She really set up the story with her verse. I love how the first part of the chorus is literally a sweet melody before it goes into the edgier chorus UGH SO GOOD. Not to mention this video gave us the first choreo heavy music video since fucking Salute ad that is a blessing in and of itself.
3. Happiness. “Remember I, I was mine. Before I was yours.” Honestly what else do you need? That line was so fucking iconic. The melody is so fucking beautiful, the nod to past girl groups was very strong in this one. It’s a different sound for them but at the same time extremely them??? I love the lyrical content SO MUCH. it’s such a feel good powerful song. The bridge of perrie belting and then the beautiful quick breakdown before they go back into the chorus ugh so fucking good. 
4. If You Want My Love. This song punched me in the face the second it started with Jade and didn’t stop until the fucking end. This was SUCH a spot on nod to past girl groups and they fucking nailed it. The chorus gives me CHILLS every time. It literally DEMANDS your attention in the same way the lyrical content is demanding to be treated right. The bridge had me meltING. PERRIES BUILD UP BELT?? Reminded me of About the boy which iconic we love growth. The melody is so fucking good AND THE ACAPELLA AT THE END??? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING??? so damn good. Everyone say thank you little mix.
5. Rendezvous. Honestly this top five is literally nothing but non-skippable B O P S. The fucking sway sample is ICONIC. It’s giving such motivate vibes and we all know how much of a banger that one is. Trying to imagine the choreo to this song is physically paining me and i’m so fucking pumped to see IT. I love how they have been consistently taking ownership of their bodies and flipping the gender expectations around. “i ain’t trying to fall in love with you” JUST ICONIC. Also reminds me of bloodline by ariana grande and also FUCKING ICONIC.
6. My Love Won’t Let You Down. This song needs to be longer. It’s so fucking beautiful. The lyrical content had me crying by the first line. It reminded me a lot of don’t worry by the 1975 but a lot more personal, it’s a very pointed song so it hits so differently than the 1975 one does for me. But holy shit it’s so beautiful, they have all grown vocally so much. “We can sit at the edge of your bed, tell me all of the fears in your head, and i’ll sing you your favorite song” This REALLY got to me bc idk it just felt like they were speaking to their fans i that moment and I know that alone can mean so much to so many people. It really did for me.
7. A Mess (Happy 4 U). I was not expecting them to start so deep, i literally felt like i was being let in on a secret it was so cute. And then the slip into that head voice, it was so airy and so pretty. And the drums in the background were very reminiscent of nothing feels like you which was a GREAT trip down memory lane for me. I also just love the message behind the song and the lyrical content is cute. AND THE FUCKING D R O P. U G H. THE FACT THAT THIS SONG ISNT HIGHER SHOULD SPEAK VOLUMES AS TO HOW GOOD I THINK THE OTHER SONGS ARE.
8. Holiday. WHY DOES THE FANDOM HATE THIS SONG SO MUCH??? IT’S SO GOOD. THE PRE-CHORUS ALONE !!!! EYE!!! It’s really upsetting to me and my homegirls why Holiday gets so much slander. The music video..... anyway the S O N G. It’s so good. So fun. A tune.
9. Nothing But My Feelings. Idk what this trend is of singing complete FILTH to the cutest little melodies but i’m here for it. This song took me by surprise tbh but i loved every second of it??? ESPECIALLY, the cute little adverbs in the background holy shit. They’re so much fun. And little mix + trap influenced is probably my new favorite thing so i need them to continue doing trap influence for my own sanity.
10. Not A Pop Song. I’m glad the girlies get to sing their truth at LAST. I also love the melody in this song and the “not a pop song” harmonies in the background near the end. I do think the verses are too short but i love leigh’s prechorus so much i’ll let the verses be shorter so i can get to her sooner. Also perrie kILLED that bridge are we surprised? no not at all.
11. Break Up Song. idc man this songs still slaps lmao. IT’S CUTE. But i’ve heard it enough it can’t compete with the new bbies on the album, but that intro gets me hype every time. And I still have fun dancing to it months later, but i’ve had it so long it’s been celebrated enough.
12. Breathe. I just feel like the verses were so much prettier than the chorus, like the lyrical content is so beautiful. Maybe it’s the instrumental??? But i think it would have been so much prettier had the chorus not been so intentionally choppy. The verses alone tho almost saved this song for me and made me put it higher but there’s just so many better songs on the album so it is here.
13. Gloves up.... is this controversial? There’s just a real disconnect between??? everything??? it sounds like three different songs tbh?? I love the lyrical content and the breakdown in the pre-chrous and jesy’s pause before perrie’s power vocals come in, but the instrumental is just kind of all over the place to me. idk maybe subconsciously i was comparing it to salute because that’s the writer they wrote it with but idk just not for meeee

ART OF THE JEEPNEY 2020.02.04 It’s rush hour in Metro Manila, which means gridlocked streets for several hours. The city is one of the world’s most congested. Within this tangle of cars and scooters and stationary running motors, one type of vehicle stands out from the rest: the jeepney. Jeepneys are a uniquely Filipino mode of public transportation that appeared after World War II, which left the country’s infrastructure severely damaged. After the war, American troops left behind Willy Jeeps—the ubiquitous four-person green jeeps of war-movie fame—as it was costly to ship them home. Locals set about retrofitting them to meet their transportation needs. Though they were born as a temporary solution, they’ve now become a mainstay across the country. Most of the original jeepneys are out of commission, and the ones found on the road today were produced by local car manufacturers in the years since. [Full Article.]
