“Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift. Though I was a casual follower and not really interested, I was kinda ‘too bad it didn’t work’ about it just ’cause it was six years long. But man, everything after that has completely made me see them both in a different light.
… It’s like Taylor literally came back to her 1989 era — the same performative, very orchestrated, and very intentional ‘I am again a victim, and my ex is an asshole’ narrative. … Though I didn’t really follow Alwyn (I haven’t seen him in anything), I found the way he stayed mum throughout everything Taylor’s camp was [allegedly] throwing at him nonstop every day very refreshing. This whole thing actually made me take a deep dive into their relationship, and the guy truly meant and still means it when he says ‘private.’ Very, very rare in celebs. … I really thought Taylor had matured quite a bit in her Folklore/Evermore era, but looks like that was an aesthetic.
I really didn’t know or care about Alwyn, but now I think he’s quite a dignified celeb who knows the value of silence.”
