The fact that Taylor Swift is 34 & been making music since 2006, yet her fanbase is still teenage white girls, says all you gotta know about her music never evolving

[@sc33h3o3]

A gifted psychic on KZbin said Kanye actually had a crush on her, made me think of the kid on the playground tormenting who he secretly likes, and that would explain Kim going after her, a woman can pick up on this stuff, and Kanye creative genius would resonate more to another creative genius lyricist

[@rogueonevo]

The song and the game named completely different.... slower people with limited vocabulary didn't know that fortnight is an actual word which is not the same as Fortnite....

So, I don't know much about the game "Fortnite" because I've only played it a couple of times, but "Fortnight" in the way Taylor spells it is 2 weeks. I've seen some people on here saying that the different spelling means they're not related, but maybe they are. Maybe Taylor couldn't call her song "Fortnite" for legal reasons, and this is a way for her to shout out the game without worrying about getting sued.

[@illWillienumber31]

1. The song is Fortnight, the actual word meaning 2 weeks not Fortnite the video game 2. I dont play the game, but I know Fortnite made over 20 Billion dollars in it's 1st 4 years (2018-2022, not even including the last couple of years) and that's a free to play game.
