Now THIS Screams COMPHET

I think I should be able to feel bad about the fact that my favorite famous person in the entire world, one that’s been in my life for more than half of it, is dating someone who said things that make me want to vomit without having people telling me that I’m a bad fan.

im sure lots of people will listen to TTPD and discount it because she talks about matty in it (and ofc people have their valid issues with him, but im not gonna go into that), but the whole lead up to the album has been “we’re investigating,” and imo a lot of us took that as her saying “we’re investigating why my relationship ended” whereas the album is actually about “we’re investigating this caricature of a girl who went through something life-changing, and she has apparently gone crazy” and she’s basically done a public autopsy of herself; something that the media/fans/public have done since the beginning, but this time around she was like “i’ll do it to myself.”

hence, the album aesthetic feels so sterile too imo. she’s trying to distance herself from the subject but!!!!!! she is the subject. and in conclusion, i think what she’s really putting down is “the summary of the investigation of this girl is that she went insane because of what happened to her, but it’s hopefully gonna be okay”

sidenote: i think what we need to take away from the album is to… let her live…

how does everyone know dianna proposed

It’s an assumption — arising in the first instance from an anonymous source supplied by @larrienation in July 2016 — albeit, one for which there is circumstantial ‘evidence’ in support.

(i.) There is good reason to suspect that Taylor wanted to marry Dianna:

This is consistent with Taylor’s writing in the period of their relationship: the lyrics to How You Get the Girl — ‘I want you for worse or for better’  ‘I would wait for ever and ever’ (cf. Wonderland, for the aftermath, ‘we pretended it could last forever (last forever)’ ‘And life was never worse but never better (never better)’) — suggest that she anticipated marriage (to Dianna).

Taylor performed Speak Now, a song about interrupting an ex’s wedding, live on the first tour date (6th September 2013) after attending a Fun concert with Dianna (4th September — this was not only two years to the day since their reintroduction to each other at Fairfax Flea Market, but the first time they had communicated publicly since Dianna’s birthday in April, when their engagement supposedly was broken-off.)

According to an interview with Global News in December 2014, Style was written about ‘that one person who you feel like might interrupt your wedding and [who would] be like don’t do it because we’re not over yet.’ Style, on my conception, is about Dianna.

Taylor’s reaction to Dianna’s marriage in 2016 was interesting – at her only concert of that year (in Austin, in October) she changed the lyrics to I Knew You Were Trouble for a second time, from ‘you never loved me’ to “she never loved me.” (x)

(ii.) It is an idea which seemingly is endorsed by the music video to Look What You Made Me Do:

Significantly, there is a ring box in shot in the bank-heist scene — a scene in which Taylor appears with a cat mask as a literal pussy bandit. ‘pussy bandit’ is a popular nickname of Dianna’s, pre-dating her relationship with Taylor.  [Note: the swiftlife debuted a ‘pussy bandit’ taymoji in the “better than revenge” pack on the day that the music video for Babe, another song associated with Dianna, was released.]

It is also tacitly endorsed by the visuals for Clean, a song popularly associated with Dianna, on the 1989 tour. Taylor wears a white dress, while the rain-water substitutes for a veil (here).

ETA (21/05/2019)

On one interpretation of the music video to ME!, Brendon’s three attempts to woo Taylor on the rooftop represent Taylor’s three ‘real relationships.’ The second in sequence (Brendon as Dianna) involves Taylor’s rejection of a proposal. 

ETA (12/06/2019)

It is arguable that the lyric  “a circus ain’t a love story” in Getaway Car (again, a song associated with Dianna)  alludes to Taylor’s non-acceptance of a proposal. It is, after-all, apparent that in (an actual) Love Story, an affirmative answer is assumed (”it’s a love story, baby just say yes.”)

ETA (03/07/2020)

In her Red Tour performance of I Knew You Were Trouble, Taylor wears a white (wedding?) dress to sing the first part of the song.

Happy Pride Month! 🌈

I'm giving the person who reblogged this head scritches.

Some thoughts from twitter 🙌🏻

this photo is so absolutely gorgeous (cardiff on june 18, 2024)

I can't help but think maybe this is The Point?

She can put out whatever story she wants and sell it however she wants, too. She can make the GP see/believe anything. What else have we seen and believed about her? What else is called into question if this is?

I cant actually believe that anyone can interpret hits different to be about a man, I was trying to explain it to a friend of mine who's not entirely convinced about gaylor and wow! How can it not be about a girl!??! Even if we look away from the fact argumentative antithetical dream girl only really makes sense to be about the person the song is written about in a grammatical, how could that line be about Taylor when the rest of the song describes how broken down and severely depressed about the situation she is. Does 'I cried over a hat', 'asshole outlaw', and 'my sadness is contagious' sound like someone describing themselves as someone's dream girl???? Because I certainly wouldnt say so.

Karlie is trending #1 in the USA!

you better believe it
