This is a Taylor Swift Eras Tour SPECIAL baby!Raj is off to see TayTay in Liverpool so she's having conversations based on some of her favourite ERAS.

Raj Pander is phuckin 40 and she's lost her voice. It turns out that even though she wanted to do nothing for her 40th, her friends had other plans...Raj gets into the representation of women in their late 30s/early 40s in film as according to the internet, Anne Hathaway is "too hot" to play a 40 year old in The Idea Of You, even though she's 41. And apparently, being 40 means she shouldn't be wearing "shoulder bearing" dresses. Has anyone ever see Moonstruck? There 's some Met Gala tea. Raj tries to figure out why she didn't want to do anything for her 40th, so she's asked her friends how they plan to celebrate theirs and what they thought 40 would look like vs what it actually will look like...
