Previous government efforts to boost the sale of seal products have also failed, noted Fink. As an example, she pointed to a 2014 plan which recommended the Fisheries and Oceans department try to revive the market for the sale of seal penises.

Is the simulation collapsing into a Swift-ularity?

Certainly seems so.
Taylor Swift is the only important person in the world according to the news.

I mean I like her music, but if you asked me a couple of years ago who's going to be shaking the world in 2024, definitely wouldn't say Taylor Swift.

I don't think I've ever heard a single song of hers.

If your young, it's not that difficult to avoid music.

But she was huge like 20 years ago as a country singer, went to pop, and now makes slightly more grown up pop.

If you're over 30 and American you've 100% heard one of her songs because radio was still a thing back then.

I'm glad I wouldn't really be able to tell if the pop song is hers by just listening to it. But then I stopped listening to pop in high school and radio stations once MP3 players could hold more than 3 grindcore albums at a time.
