Taylor Swift has temporarily come out of social media hiding.

The singer has only shared two Instagram posts in the past few weeks, going nearly entirely silent ever since Kim Kardashian posted videos of a phone call between Swift and Kanye West.

The videos, of course, featured a phone conversation between Taylor and Kanye.

It centered on the rapper’s single, "Famous," most specifically certain lyrics that called Swift out in a number of unflattering ways.

Swift gave her okay to these lyrics, contradicting future claims that she was shocked and offended when Kanye’s song went viral.

Soon after Kim proved she was a liar, Swift posted a message on Instagram that claimed Kimye was trying to assassinate her character, adding that she’d like to be "excluded from this narrative."

Here’s a look at that emotional, desperate, angry plea:

Since then, Swift has only signed on to wish Selena Gomez a happy 24th birthday.

But now Taylor has gone ahead and surprised followers with a new Instagram post. And it once again comes on the occasion of a good friend’s birthday.

"I LOVE YOU KARLIE! You’re such an exquisite person, always trying to make things better for others," Swift shared on Instagram, along with a throwback selfie.

"Every day I’m inspired by how giving, loving, and thoughtful you are. Happy 24th Birthday!!!"

Say what you want about Taylor Swift (and people aren’t shy about doing so these days), but she does always seem like a very good friend.

So, how did Swift and Kloss celebrate this occasion?

Not by hanging out together.

"When you’re halfway around the world & your best friend still finds a way to celebrate 24 with you @taylorswift13," Kloss Tweeted yesterday morning.

She then posted a photo of Swift on FaceTime, including with it a gorgeous vase of sunflowers that were put on display next to the screen.

"If you have one person in your life that you connect with then you’re lucky," Karlie once told Elle U.K., speaking of the famous Taylor Swift Squad and adding:

"If you have a group of friends that you have that connection with then you’re especially lucky and if you have people in your family you have that connection with then you’ve really won the game."

Let’s hope that Squad is there for Taylor at the moment.

She could use some real friends.
