if you’d bring a few shirts back home

(pictures from gaylor reddit x)

and you know what they say abt gal pals

sharing clothes

well.. that you are just the best of best friends. roommates. but definitely not more than that. normal girls being normal.

what they actually meant was: lovers, soulmates, girlfriends.

but hey let’s not speculate - gay 😤 - iew - whatever 🫠✌️.

Okay okay.. just another koincidence I’m sure.

Karlie Elizabeth BETTY Kloss!

Taylor Alison JAMES Swift!

Please, I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative. It’s ruining my life 😭

I can’t listen to ‘random’ music anymore without you two koincidencing (yes – I just decided that it’s a verb).

I've had some tricks up my sleeve Takes one to know one You're a cowboy like me

! 🙌 !

Kelly Clarkson sang Lavender Haze on her show today wearing a yellow shirt, 13 days before December 8th, the last Eras tour show. Call me suspicious. 🤨

Is this real?

I asked Taylor to play The Albatross in a pink dress. She did it tonight!

In August I posted an analysis of The Albatross. At the end I included this ask:

I genuinely wasn’t expecting her to play The Albatross again. She’s only ever played it one other time (June 29th in Dublin, mashed up with DWOHT) and the number of shows left was quickly dwindling. I don’t know, I just didn’t think she’d play it again.

BTW, when I posted that ask the surprise song dresses were still solid colors. We hadn’t seen these beautiful multicolored ones she debuted for the last leg of the tour.

Not only did she play The Albatross in a pink dress but she mashed it up with holy ground. I had asked her for this combo if she enjoyed reading our analyses. I think this mash up is telling us this space we’ve created is a holy ground for her. She feels safe with us. “Tonight I'm gonna dance/ For all that we've been through/ But I don't wanna dance/ If I'm not dancing with you” 🥹

Holy ground also has the lyric “And I see your face in every crowd” which is wildly reminiscent of 🎃’s latest message. “Every night a sea of different humans. And yet so many of them are the same. So many of them, in fact, that sometimes you forget that every now and again there's a person standing there who actually knows you. Sees you. Hears you. But then, you find them in the crowd.” Cc @spade-riddles

I’m aware most of you will probably think I’m crazy. That’s fine. On the chance I’m not, I just want it to be known how appreciative I am. I was watching the surprise songs tonight on live stream and was blown away. She started singing “Wise men…” and my soul left my body. Once I worked through the shock I got very emotional. It warms my heart to know that Taylor sees our support and finds comfort in it. We love you for you. We stay. 💕

« the real story unfolds not in the boom, but in the sigh, the slow unraveling like a magician's silk, frayed thread by thread »

The only split I may comment on is the split in the narrative. Be astute and discerning; look beyond the glitter and smoke. The real magic, you see, isn't in the grand vanishings or levitating doves. It's in the whispers, the cracks in the veneer, the clues you might miss while your eyes chase the spotlight.

Be wary of distraction, yearn not just for the grand ta-da, but heed the hushed murmurs that precede it. The real story unfolds not in the boom, but in the sigh, the slow unraveling like a magician's silk, frayed thread by thread.

Don't let the flourish of anticipation blind you to the tiny tears in the fabric. The marked card, the hidden trapdoor; they exist not just in illusions on stage, but in the lives we live. Watch for the chipped edges of smiles, the flicker of doubt in familiar eyes, the whispers that dance on the periphery of laughter.

For cracks, like secrets, have a way of widening in the shadows, unnoticed until the light shifts, revealing the chasm you never saw coming. Don't be the audience applauding the levitation, oblivious to the floorboards creaking beneath your feet. The true magic, the poignant truth, lies in the descent, not the ascent.

So heed the sighs, the silences, the subtle shifts in tone. The real drama, the heartbreaking beauty of it all, unfolds not in a grand finale, but in the quiet unraveling. The magician's greatest illusion is the one you choose not to see. So keep your eyes peeled, friends, for the real story, the one whispered between the lines, is the one that truly leaves you breathless.

'come along, the water's great, jump in, we're all mad here' - Taylor Swift on Jimmy Fallon (2021)

You could’ve warned us that the risk is drowning though.

Asking for a friend how many tortured poets does your department roughly have, Taylor?

taylor attended a hannah montana afterparty with emily osment, miley cyrus, and demi lovato

miley later said: “if you guys didn’t know i was bisexual from this damn picture, i don’t know what’s wrong with you. uh, i mean, hello! look at them!”

the queering of taylor swift

“not only does a queer reading of folklore further validate all the earlier queer readings of many of swift’s other songs, it also opens up possibilities for more nuanced, equally rewarding readings of swift’s songs”

Coney Island

The question pounds my head

"What's a lifetime of achievement?"

If I pushed you to the edge

But you were too polite to leave me

And do you miss the rogue

Who coaxed you into paradise and left you there?

Will you forgive my soul

When you're too wise to trust me and too old to care?

'Cause we were like the mall before the Internet

It was the one place to be

The mischief, the gift wrapped suburban dreams

Sorry for not winning you an arcade ring

And I'm sitting on a bench in Coney Island

wondering where did my baby go?

———

Coney Island Baby

And the straightest dude I ever knew

was standing right for me, all the time

So I had to play football for the coach

And I wanted to play football for the coach

When you're all alone and lonely

In your midnight hour

And you find that your soul

It has been up for sale

And you're getting to think about

All the things that you done

And you're getting to hate

Just about everything

But remember the princess who lived on the hill

Who loved you even though she knew you was wrong

And right now she just might come shining through

And the

Glory of love

Glory of love

Glory of love, just might come through
