People downvoting this need to allow some joy into their lives.

I was worried for years that I would be judged for showing my Swiftie side, and I can't be happy enough that I just threw that away years ago. Life gets a lot more fun when you stop judging others for what they like, and open up to enjoying things yourself.

Still, some people see us having fun and decide that we're weird and downvote away. Don't care. Am a straight man, saw Eras last year, had a blast, excited to watch it at home, and would go see her again. (If tickets were ever available again lol)

Listen, my wife is in the army. Every man - I mean every last one - in her whole platoon is a Swiftie. These are jacked up dudes who blow shit up for a living. All of them fucking love Taytay.

One of the biggest moments I remember is me saying something stupid to a mentor, something like "Oh that's weird that you like X, I thought men don't like X", and he said "Real men don't care". Stuck with me.

To the downvoters who keep looking, real men judge others based on music choice. Real men don't care. Doesn't mean you have to like her, just, who cares that we do

We do have joy this whole thing just wears thin. And, actually, other people don’t get to tell me what brings me joy.

People are allowed to disagree with a film.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Absolutely! By all means. 🀝

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Constructive disagreement is always welcome. Angry downvotes with no backing discussion are bad for the community.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sure, but when people downvote this post because they don't like it, it makes it less visible and discoverable for people who do, overall decreasing the value of this community.

[–] Thrillhouse 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

My guy it is literally pinned.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

That's great for people coming to the community, but it buries it in "hot" and "top last x".

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Shameless plug for our Swiftie community over at [email protected] . There are dozens of us Lemmy Swifties. Dozens!

As for the movie, I saw her live and by far one of those shows that you just will have an anchoring memory too. She's clearly a showman, she put meticulous detail into every step, every note. I do wish she had been a bit more personal, but she went for 3.5 hours of songs, can't blame her for needing to power through it all.

I personally won't be going to the movie, but will enjoy it at home when it comes out on my sound system, very excited for that! I hope everyone who goes has fun!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Good to see you here!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I went to a Dolby theater and the booming sound was honestly worth it. It was cut down to 2.5h so not quite as long. You should go!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

The movie was awesome! Easily the best concert movie I've seen. The production values were through the roof, and I definitely cried a few times just being overwhelmed by it all.
