Grief is a terrible, incredible thing.

To most of the people here I'm an erratic fan. Shouting into the void about lost love, Taylor Swift, my gender identity, ai-doom. Each post I make takes a little more out of me and fewer people interact with me.

Only a few mutuals even understand who I am and why I'm here. This is the real, authentic me. This is a LONG READ.

When I came to Tumblr, I was grief-stricken, sobbing for the end of a 20-year relationship. Most of you are pretty young and I'm sure the idea of that is incredibly distant and impossible. Love is hard_HARD_ work.

Throughout our relationship I'd pour my heart into music and then that music into him. When we were younger it was Avril Lavigne, then it became Paramore-then it was Taylor. I didn't have the female voice to express the love to my partner that I wanted to so these womens' words became my words. A way for him to really hear me.

Near the end of the relationship, this was through Folklore specifically. When I needed desperately to feel a connection it was Invisible String. When I wanted him to see how desperately I wanted his love and attention it was Mirrorball. When I felt neglected and forgotten about it was Hoax. When I knew my depression would never leave us it was Peace.

After we split, I couldn't pour myself into that music anymore; now there was no-one to listen to my voice. I was heartbroken doubly and started screaming my grief into the void. It was 20 years, besties: 20.

I've always felt what I call art debt. It's the idea that the people who do art that moves you are owed part of the emotional movement it inspired. Basically, the people who have moved you with their art deserve to know that. Not with some generic 'your art inspired me', but the very specific: "I am who I am because of this art."

It helped make me who I was as a professional. It helped me express who I was as a lover. It built me into someone greater than I had been before.

I came to Tumblr to say thank you, hoping with some small hope that Taylor still lurked and might be able to hear the message. Taylor wasn't the person who found me and helped me in my flailing grief, it was Abby. A disabled girl half my age and suffering worse than I am.

It was Swifties who were there to catch me and help build me up. It was Dani (@meaningtotellyou) and Abby (@whydoifeelthisquiet) and Kelly (@alwaysleadstoyou) and Jam (@maryssongwhen). (with dozens of tiny interactions along the way)

If I couldn't say thank you to Taylor directly, I'd take care of some of the girls who were devoted to her. So, I stayed. I endeavored to be the Taylor that you all seemed to need.

I helped Dani and her friend get to Metlife. I sent little love letters of hope and optimism to girls who were lonely and sad. I bought off some people's debts. I volunteered to give an extra dress I had to Isabella(@missegyptiana) when she lost her luggage. I reached out continuously trying to find ways to help make lives better. I didn't do this to gain anything: most of these I did anonymously. I did this because I cared about these girls now.

Their stories deserve to be told. Their lives deserve to be better.

I learned of the ticket issues. I learned of the scamming. I spent hours researching what was going on and trying to help elsewhere against Ticketmaster. I spent hours with a lawyer. I called the federal government. The pile of Swifties that I was trying to help grew, but the number who actually knew anything about me shrunk.

Caring and being attentive to the updates and individual life struggles of 4 Swifties was hard. When it was 40 it was untenable. I kept going.

I'm not giving up on any of you, but it is killing me to be doing this alone. I am disabled. I am grief stricken. I am stretched thin. My options are to give up on you all or keep going till I burnout. Maybe you don't care about me-I don't really need you to. As someone who's had Taylor speak for her for 10 years, let me speak for her for once:

I need you to care about each other.

The world is mean and hard. Worse going through it alone. Especially if you're marginalized. Band in. Stop broadcasting and start talking to each other. You are all wonderful in your own ways and you wouldn't be nearly as lonely with each other as real friends.

I'm sorry if I'm annoying. I'm sorry if I don't shut up about AI worries. I'm sorry if it seems like I want something. I'm sorry I'm not actually Taylor. Maybe you aren't used to seeing someone actually care about your wellbeing and happiness? The erratic behavior is just fragments of me struggling to survive while not giving up on you.

I want to see you all shine. I want people to see this so people see you. Taylor's already done more for me than I could pay back in a hundred years. I don't need anything from her other than help to take care of you all.

How will Digital Marketing Change in the Future?

Digital marketing is expected to undergo significant changes in the future, driven by advancements in technology, shifting consumer behaviors, and regulatory developments. Here are some key ways in which digital marketing is likely to change in the coming years:

Increased Emphasis on AI and Machine Learning: Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms will play a more prominent role in digital marketing strategies. Marketers will leverage AI-powered tools for data analysis, personalization, predictive analytics, and automation of routine tasks, leading to more efficient campaigns and better targeting of audiences.

Rise of Voice Search Optimization: With the growing popularity of voice-activated devices like smart speakers and virtual assistants, optimizing content for voice search will become crucial. Marketers will need to focus on conversational keywords, long-tail phrases, and providing concise yet informative answers to voice queries to improve visibility in voice search results.

Evolution of Content Formats: The demand for interactive and immersive content experiences will drive the evolution of content formats. Video content, live streaming, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR) experiences will become more prevalent as marketers seek to engage audiences in innovative ways and create memorable brand interactions.

Data Privacy and Compliance: Stricter data privacy regulations and consumer concerns about data security will shape digital marketing practices. Marketers will need to prioritize transparent data collection and usage practices, adhere to regulatory requirements such as GDPR and CCPA, and build trust with consumers by demonstrating a commitment to data privacy and security.

Integration of Social Commerce: Social media platforms will continue to evolve into powerful e-commerce channels. Marketers will integrate social commerce features such as shoppable posts, in-app checkout options, and social shopping experiences to drive sales directly from social media platforms and enhance the overall customer journey.

Innovations in Digital Advertising: Digital advertising will undergo innovations in targeting capabilities, ad formats, and measurement metrics. Contextual advertising, native advertising, programmatic advertising, and influencer marketing will remain key strategies, with a focus on delivering relevant, non-intrusive ad experiences that resonate with target audiences.

Personalization at Scale: Advanced personalization techniques powered by data analytics and AI will enable marketers to deliver highly tailored and relevant content experiences at scale. Personalized recommendations, dynamic content customization, and adaptive messaging based on individual preferences and behaviors will drive engagement and conversion rates.

Mobile-First and Mobile-Optimized Strategies: The continued proliferation of mobile devices will necessitate a mobile-first approach to digital marketing. Marketers will prioritize mobile-optimized websites, responsive design, mobile apps, and location-based targeting to reach and engage mobile-centric audiences effectively.

Sustainability and Social Responsibility: Brands will increasingly integrate sustainability and social responsibility initiatives into their digital marketing strategies. Purpose-driven marketing campaigns, eco-friendly product messaging, and support for social causes will resonate with socially conscious consumers and enhance brand reputation.

Data-driven Decision Making: The use of data analytics, attribution modeling, and marketing automation tools will enable marketers to make data-driven decisions and optimize campaign performance in real time. Continuous monitoring, testing, and refinement of marketing strategies based on actionable insights will be essential for driving success in the evolving digital landscape.

Overall, the future of digital marketing will be characterized by innovation, agility, and a customer-centric approach. By embracing emerging technologies, prioritizing data ethics and privacy, and staying attuned to evolving consumer trends, businesses can navigate the changing digital marketing landscape effectively and achieve their marketing objectives in the years ahead.

A short 3-step guide on how to build and maintain a better relationship with technology

Many people nowadays report being overwhelmed and distracted by technology and social media. If you're struggling with this, it's important to remember that you're not alone.

Go through your app library or technology drawer and ask yourself these 3 questions:

Does it support what I care about, and/or does it help me become a better me? For example, if your passion is reading, having 20 image sharing apps for "motivation" is not going to help you progress and develop your reading targets.

Is it the best at supporting what I care about, or is there another app or gadget that does it better? There are many apps and websites out there, but you should find the best one for you. That said, you shouldn't spend hundreds of hours sifting through the never-ending options. Find something that works for 80% of your use cases and then get cracking.

How do I feel using it? Does it bring me happiness or joy? There is an infinite number of things you could be doing in life at any point in time. You won't get to do all of the things you want to do. So don't waste your limited and precious time on things that don't make you happy. In conclusion, use technology that supports your goals and that impacts your mental and physical health in a positive way, and then heavily curate it so as to not spread yourself thin. Then the last step is to become comfortable missing out on everything else. Good luck! ❤️
