    Yes! There are very easy out of bounds clips that anyone can perform, and these are bringing things closer to the hour mark. One was discovered a week ago dubbed “McSkip” which essentially skips the entire Feast Layer. This one is a bit more difficult to perform but very cool to see executed amidst a run.

    I have been watching a shit-ton of DKB speedruns after finishing the game, and people are really pushing the times lower and lower. I think the current world record is 1 hour and 9 minutes (and some change). This game has a great combo of incredible movement options, along with easily exploitable glitches that make watching these pretty entertaining. I don’t know how much more optimized it can get, but something tells me one hour flat may be possible in due time.

    they could have ended the album on any of the last three songs and they sequenced it perfectly

    Playing this non-stop. Haven’t connected with an album like this for a while. And it’s just a perfect length as well. I love 40 min albums with no skips.

    Oh I completely agree, but again this is Taylor “Mastermind” Swift we’re talking about.

    Right, but by then Jack was already working with Sabrina on Short N Sweet! The timelines are not completely aligned, and I don’t have enough willpower to actually cite dates on this crackpot theory.

    My post will age like single malt scotch and we can revisit this in December 2027 when TS13 is announced! You’ll all see! :crylaugh:

    I made a point similar to this in Sabrina’s thread. I don’t know how to articulate my point here without going full conspiracy theory haha. Taylor is best friends with Jack. Taylor also knows it’s time to move on from Jack creatively, but doesn’t want any bad blood between them. So what she does is she raises the profile of a young pop star who has years of success ahead of her, and then introduces them. Now Jack has his muse for the next decade, Sabrina prints money as her star only grows, and Taylor can now move on to other projects without regret. Max Martin for TS12 and Nathan Chapman for TS13, which I would suspect to be a country album. This is my full tinfoil hat reading of the situation. To be clear, I am not proud to have cooked this up!

    It's Taylor... everything is calculated.

    Sex appeal discussion aside, I do think there is something interesting in Taylor essentially stamping her approval on Sabrina these last few years. On a tour of that scale it’s hard to know just how much time they spent together, but clearly they became close. Now with Sabrina introduced to Jack and producing “Man’s Best Friend”, I wonder if that had any impact on Taylor’s timing to turn back to Max Martin. To include Sabrina on the title track of this album is pretty wild, for both of them. I don’t know how to explain it, but it does feel like a calculated move on Taylor’s part. Not quite a passing of the torch, but more like a subtle cannibalizing of Sabrina’s own rise to fame.

    Yeah, this art is pretty terrible, but I get the theme. Taylor however is undeniably gorgeous? Also, not to yuck anyone’s yum, but Sabrina has the sex appeal of a Bratz doll.

    I mean, Sabrina Carpenter decided to make sexuality the cornerstone of her lyrical brand on her sixth album cycle. Where does that fall on your “authenticity” meter?

    I really want to hear it, but I’d much prefer no singles. Especially with only 12 songs. If it is anything like 1989 the entire album will hit the radio and be run into the ground by the end of the year, so I’d rather prolong the inevitable for as long as possible.

    He knows that lady spent her money to see what she hears on CD, and missing the show might not kill the soul but it will make it harder, so he’s willing to reimburse her. You can’t be a stone-hearted man.
