Had a great time at the Taylor Swift Symposium ❤️am I a Swiftie yet? Idk but “I was there/ it was rare”

My bestie on the westie and I presented on Durkheim, the Eras tour, and the TS is a witch conspiracy. It was epic indeed.

Tagged book recommended for anyone looking to have a bit of fun & find TS talking points. I‘m enjoying the conversation 🫶

DogMomIrene Your presentation sounds epic! Would have loved to hear theories on TS as a witch. 2d
StaceGhost @DogMomIrene ❤️we had so much fun! My tagline was “it‘s not Satanic; it‘s sociology” 😅thanks for the love 🫶also I didn‘t anticipate a fun side effect of preparing for the conference: my 3 yr old singing anti hero lol she‘s right, too…she IS the problem lololol 1d
