The "Taylor's Version" generation is not gonna let Big AI steal her stuff - Anil Dash A blog about making culture. Since 1999.

The AI companies are woefully underestimating what it means that an entire generation has grown up listening to "Taylor's Version", and that fans now know what it means to respect an artist's intent & intellectual property. They're not ready for Swifties vs. Big AI. www.anildash.com/2025/09/18/t...

I would read an academic murder book in which the murder was solved by reading the syllabus

Taylor Swift is filling a ‘blank space’ in academic research A new book by University of Melbourne researchers explores how Swift studies is bringing the cultural phenomena of Taylor Swift into academia.

We’re getting ready to launch our Taylor Swift book this week! Check out this piece on Pursuit about the collection @eloisefaichney.bsky.social @emmawhatman.bsky.social @autnews.bsky.social

*New article!*

Max Blansjaar and I have written an essay about Taylor Swift for the Journal of Popular Music Studies.

It's open access for the next 30 days via this link: online.ucpress.edu/jpms/article...

There is so much history happening, if you're a future historian please tell everyone I said aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa thank you

Tweet from 2023. Text reads: "A thing that's interesting is how "do your own research" on the internet has changed how we understand truth, knowledge, science, and facts. I talk about this with my students a lot, maybe it's a useful thing to think about."

I've been thinking a lot about the difference between doing a "search" and doing "research" and how that works with conspiracy theory/lies to control our public sphere. Here's an old thread from 2023

We’d love to have you! The call usually goes out in August. I’ll post here when it does!

I've already sent Taylor Swift's letter about buying her masters back to every single one of my group chats. I am my community's Taylor Watch town crier.

I'm very excited to say that my academic article "Loud Mistakes: Fandom as Rhetorical Situation, Transcendent Apologia, and Taylor Swift's Red" was published today in the journal Peitho. You can read it (for free!) here: wac.colostate.edu/peitho/

To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

—With love,
Your American allies.

A shocking number of people on the left think that they need to deny or ignore women’s oppression in order to acknowledge anyone else’s.

There’s still time to join us for our final panel—on gender, feminism, and female rage—at 11:30 in Salon F

In our first year in Albuquerque, the Taylor Swift and Swiftie Studies area of @swpaca.bsky.social ended up with 13 presentations! The planets and the fates and all the stars aligned!

life as a non-swiftie sounds so incredibly boring

I’m a busy career woman flying home for the holidays so I’d expect to meet my soulmate any minute now, except for the fact that my hometown is Los Angeles so instead of charming Christmas cheer there’s just like…traffic and gluten free waffles.

Glitter & Rigor: Inside Taylor Swift’s Academic Era I am living out what would have been my teenage dream job if I had dared to imagine it: I research and write about Taylor Swift for a living.

With the Eras Tour ending, I’ve been reflecting a lot on how much this tour meant to me personally but also (unexpectedly and beautifully) professionally, which I wrote a little bit about for @taypedia

Trying to figure out how to explain to my non-Swiftie friends that the Eras Tour wasn’t an event but a hobby.

And that I really don’t know what to do with my weekends now.

I am honored to have written a chapter in this collection, which has the greatest cover I’ve ever seen and is on super sale RIGHT NOW

It’s me! Hi!
