What Makes It All Hilarious Is Taylor Said She Wrote The Treatment A Year Or So Ago And Wanted These

This was all I could think of when I saw Taylor in Seattle and Applause was literally one of the last songs to play before she started. 🙈

Yesss!! 🥹

Shut up, I didn’t know she did the freaking point too. 🙈

(x)

yes! acceptance is key...

Submission:

I understand Taylor wanting to have their second child close to their first. That’s valid, and the biological clock is a real thing. What I don’t understand is why she didn’t get real with us and warn us it was coming. Then we could make our decisions whether or not to stick around for the next two years, ten years, forever closet … whatever the new plan is supposed to be.

She’s always so careful to keep us hanging on just a little while longer. Why not fucking level with us, for once? Yes, we’re all adults and she doesn’t owe us a coming out. That doesn’t mean it’s fun to be attacked by the rest of her fans and subjected to constant homophobia from them, which she KNOWS flares up when the antis get a “win” like this. All she had to do was give us a heads up so we could prepare ourselves, or be honest about her plans and let us tap out if we need to. 

And no, singing Coney Island the week The National drop a new album doesn’t count as a warning. 

I’m tired. 

Okay, so National Catch and Release day was April 8th. The same day as the Toe breakup.

Thanks to this tiktok, we now know that Taylor used the exact same catch and release phrase during her NYU speech in May of last year.

So, I went to find the transcript of the speech and…

“Decide what’s yours to hold and let the rest go.”

“One toxic relationship (hello being in the closet and bearding with this dude) can outweigh many wonderful, simple joys (hello to the muse that she had a 2,190 day love blackout with)”

Take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die. I don’t belong, and my beloved, neither do you.

Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry. I’m setting off, but not without my muse.

I want auroras and sad prose. I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet, ‘cause I haven't moved in years. And I want you right here.

A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground with no one around to tweet it. I bathe in cliffside pools with my calamitous love and insurmountable grief.

Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die. I don't belong, and my beloved, neither do you. Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry. I’m settin' off, but not without my muse.

No, not without you🖤

Taylor performing Timeless as the surprise song on piano for night 1 in Denver 💜💜💜

Easily in my top favorite performances from this tour.

Here’s a short clip to highlight the clearest “Karlie” at the end of the song.

In Karlie's Met Gala snapstory that you shared.. at 3.05.. is that Taylor's left leg? That black boot looks like the one she wore to the afterparties! This is so exciting aaahhh.

*looks at the clip for literally the hundredth time*

oh anon, it’s just her assistant in the back don’t be silly i’m sur-

🤭

Mastermind's "The Love Story of Sagittarius and Pisces - A Haze"

I think it's very interesting how Mastermind (the song) was very much prominent in the mv. Making it seem like the perfect love story.. ~Star-crossed lovers~ the Sagittarius and Pisces. But when the camera zooms out, you see that there's a typewriter on the side.. letting the viewer know Taylor's a (or THE) writer of it.

We flashback to the time before she met him. Taylor on a daisy couch, wearing a daisy dress, stuck in a room again.. reports of a storm can be seen (specifically in the St.Louis / IL border, (Big Sur) California, and Nashville Tennessee - windows boarded up after the storm / The rain is always gonna come, if you're standing with me) but when she saw him, the weatherman, you'd think she fell in love with the way she's staring.. but in reality she was seeing through him, the freedom in the fishbowl she wanted to have... expanding OUTSIDE the house.. out to the galaxy / universe.

I'm so in love that I might stop breathing. Drew a map on your bedroom ceiling (Map literally on the TV). No, i didn't see the news (weatherman), 'cause we were somewhere else (Galaxy - imagining their freedom, their escape through the haze, through him).

She knows she's stuck in a fishbowl - the 1989 room in the Lover mv proves that she can only have her lover in limited spaces inside their house.. even having to pretend when there are visitors.. but that doesn't mean she can't expand her fishbowl right? For her (and her lover) to move freely, outside of just the 4 walls of their room / house, she needs "smoke and mirrors", a haze, a distraction.. to make their world bigger. She literally saw the galaxy through him (Pisces).

So she writes their "love story", put them in her songs which then enabled the distraction from her true lover. She's all smiles with him around people (no idea if they are friends, fans, acquaintances etc.), emphasis on cameras (both film and photograph) documenting their "love story" (complete opposite of - romance is not dead if you keep it just yours). The weatherman is even wearing a jacket (with a sun sleeve) from Story MFG (MFG meaning Manufacturing.. Story Manufacturing..).. the manufactured Sun? She put everyone into this Lavender Haze, to make them believe.

Some people seem to move choreographically... again, manufacturing.

Love the scene of card games and the pizza box. It could be any card game, but these lines from New Romantics come to mind "It's poker, he can't see it in my face.. But I'm about to play my Ace" - Poker, a game where you literally deceive people.

As for the pizza box.. it's a reference to her old Stephen Colbert guesting. " 'Hey Stephen' isn't about you STEPHEN. - Taylor, Those are all pictures of me. - No. THIS IS A PIZZA". Taylor poking fun at people believing every word she says of what a song is about (PISCES constellation you guys!!), even if every other easter egg are in fact about something (or someone) else. (daisy dress, daisy couch, St. Louis, Big Sur, Letter K, Eye theory and so on). She found a way to hide her truth from the public because they believe EVERYTHING she says.

In the end, after putting everyone under the Lavender Haze, they believed her smoke and mirrors manufactured "Love Story", she can now go outside of the house. The haze afforded her to expand, to roam free and to now be undetected by the public. In the beginning, the haze / cloud / bearding weighed her down, because she couldn't be free to live her actual life, but when she planned everything and became a mastermind of her own freedom to hide her actual truth, it became a security for her. It didn't weigh her down anymore.

Now only a handful of Fan(s) can see her truth (call back to the Rep room with fans in the Lover House). These fans who can't be put under her Lavender Haze spell, even chases them away to see her clearly for who she really is. Maybe for now, she is fine with this situation. Maybe it's the safest, at least some could still see her for who she is and loves her anyway right?

i just can’t get over it
