Hiii Can You Do The Pronouns Percentage With Lover And Folklore In? I've Just Seen The One With Rep Included

It’s the “askew” AND “raining lipsticks” that’s a neon sign for me. 🤭

just remembering how karlie posted this on october 26, 2014, the eve of 1989's midnight release, kind of implying that she was out of the country (but she was actually snapped by a fan in nyc with taylor)

but the fact that she chose this particular picture... with (her?) hands making our girl's signature heart sign which she became so known for that it's practically unofficially copyrighted by the Taylor Swift™ brand....

How I made sense of Kaylor (v1 20171231)

This is not intended to create another Kaylor master-post

There are plenty and great ones around, primarily Kaylor master post I, Kaylor master post II, Kaylor Evidence, Reputation Era Master Post. Using existing master-posts and various Kaylor materials, this post is intended to share how I made sense of Kaylor, as well as what I consider equally important as looking through pieces of information and establishing evidences:

Connecting pieces of information and evidences in a coherent timeline to highlight (an established) pattern of events, and subsequently digesting them through a wider lens of reasons. 

Drawing related pieces of information and interconnecting them within certain timeline or context – literally or mentally, always helped me to make a better sense of things. I used the same approach to make sense of Kaylor, and these are a beautified version of the doodles I did. It is not intended as a complete list of events since you can get it from digging through all the master-posts and all Kaylors’ archives. Rather, this drawing picked on some events with a key purpose to show the connection and pattern of things. By taking a less fragmented and more holistic take on things, I am hoping it will give us a better perspective to digest information with a clearer (and kinder) lens.

Building blocks to construct my thought process: 

Kaylor-meter: the chronology of Kaylor events, 

Gaylor-meter: the chronology of Tay’s gay footprints, 

Beard-fest: bearding and PR stunts related to Kaylor / Gaylor

Word-orama: the closest narrative to what Taylor felt, saw and experienced throughout her journey. In some part, they are perhaps the most telling account of the emotional journey she went through the meter, the fest and her life in general.

As always, follow, go and dig through archives in these senior folks for abundant golden nuggets @jennyboom21 @tallcurlygirl @whaler13bg @taytaysbeard @kaydar @all-my-possessions. Aside from its general discourse on Kaylor/Gaylor the last two are particularly my go-to and great blogs for their fascinating perspective and essays on lyrics. Content credit goes to these folks and all Kaylors whose posts are included in this piece. There are plenty of other Kaylor blogs with great pieces and thoughts of which are no less important just because they are not mentioned or referred in here.

The Journey, and how I made sense of it:

The way I see it, Kaylor-meter, Gaylor-meter, Beard-fest and Word-orama are interconnected and interwoven fabrics of Taylor (professional) life as an artist. A fascinating - at times mind-boggling, interplay of staged and debunk. There were elements of real life person Taylor throughout the journey, however, in looking into this Kaylor journey I am using “Taylor the product/brand” lens. (Refer to this post for what I meant by “Taylor the product/brand” lens)

How to make sense of the graph? The post reference numbers are structured as such to help make an easy connection between Kaylor, Gaylor, beards and songs events. For example: Kissgate - ref# (6) is connected to Tayvin - ref# (6a1) and (6a2) to show that Tayvin events are a PR set up connected to (primarily) Kissgate event in Kaylor’s journey. Please note that I only included some of the events in Kaylor-meter, Gaylor-meter and Beard-fest for the reason that this post is intended to show an established pattern, and not an exhaustive list of events. 

So what are the patterns that we can see? 

When Dianna Agron case (D) was leaked, Harry Styles was emerged. However, chain of events indicate otherwise (Da1) (Da2).

When Kissgate (6) happened Calvin Harris was set up as a ‘boyfriend’. Once again, the PR stunt worked for the targeted audience, but not to others (6a1) (6a2).  Read through the detail in the referred Kissgate and Tayvin master-post to understand why they were connected, and why Tayvin was considered as a stunt and not a real thing between Taylor and Calvin.

When the screaming rainbow Reputation was dropped (10), it was also raining beards on Taylor’s (10a1) (10a2) (10a3) (10a4) and Karlie’s part of the world  (y1) (y2) (y3) (y4) (y5)   

Plenty of posts about this PR stunts. In short, the beards are up and fly away whenever there is an album release, when the public caught wind of Tay’s gayness, or when materials or events that can be viewed as gay will be released, with a purpose to cover up and to retain the hetero-narrative. 

(Note: on why beards are needed, refer to Sobering Thought section of this post, as well as search through these folks’ blog: @taytaysbeard @kaydar @paradisekisses)  

Reference posts:

Kaylor-meter: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10) (11)

Gaylor-meter: (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) (F)

Beard-fest: (Da1) (Da2) (6a1) (6a2) (x1) (x2) (x3) (10a1) (10a2) (10a3) (10a4) (y1) (y2) (y3) (y4) (y5)

The words that tell the (real) story…

Despite the abundant proof of disconnect or illogical events of Taylor’s hetero persona, Taylor official narrative on her albums - except for her two latest albums, still throw people off. However, in looking deeper into her lyrics, significant amount of ambiguity or timeline disconnect have weakened the narrative and indicated that the songs were anything but. Her latest album (Reputation) did so in an a even bolder fashion. As I noted in previous section, Word-orama is another aspect in the stage and debunk games. 

Some great posts that I found helping in shedding the lights on ambiguity and anything but:

(a-e) a series of essays from @all-my-possessions (note: for mobile users, upon clicking on the link, you will be directed to her main page. Use the search bar on the right top pane of her blog and type in index list to access the essays)

(a-f) a collection of posts dissecting the subject of the song, debunking of the beards from songs angle.

Beard defying songs:  (e1) (e2) (D-Da-e3) (D-Da-e4) (f3) (f4) (K-f5) (f6)

Media take on reputation: (f1) (f2) 

So how did I identify the interplay patterns between the meters, beard-fest and word-orama?

When Kissgate (6) happened Calvin Harris was set up as a ‘boyfriend’. Once again, the PR stunt worked for the targeted audience, but not to others (6a1) (6a2).  And (presumably) to muddle further of the public narrative and to encourage non-het reading, Taylor planted ambiguity through her songs  (e1) (e2) (D-Da-e3) (D-Da-e4)

When the screaming rainbow Reputation was dropped (10), it was also raining beards on Taylor’s (10a1) (10a2) (10a3) (10a4) and Karlie’s part of the world  (y1) (y2) (y3) (y4) (y5). Taylor ambiguity further the speculation that it is anything but hetero (f3) (f4) (K-f5) (f6) 

Side note: Just an additional background for those who are not familiar with Taylor’s work - I didn’t, thus the information digging I did: you can view snapshots on Taylor’s album from wikipedia (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) 

Once the pieces are all connected, now what? How should I read it? How should I digest them?

When looking into the information and connecting the dots, one process that I always found important is to digest the connected pieces within its context, and the understanding of the mechanics of and the why behind things. What is the underlying mechanics behind an event? What possible stoppers, risks or ramification that could prevent - what many would see as a natural progression of things, from happening? 

Selected perspectives I considered important to shed a different - and better, lights on the connected pieces: 

The media and public lenses: selected posts to highlight what the media and public see and say about Kaylor (primarily). Outsider perspective always helped to balance the notion of subjectivity on things. It also shows that what internal Kaylors see as evidence were viewed through the same lens by the media/public (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) 

PR & celebrity PR games: selected posts on how things work and why certain events - in Kaylor/Taylor/other celebrities were done in such way. (7) (8) (9) (10) (11) (12) (13) (14) (15)

Ethic and moral wrestling: privacy violation and outing are the controversies many touted in this fandom for various reasons and intentions. I put in selected posts to give (the needed) perspective on these crucial issues. (16) (17) (18) (19) (20) (21)

Kaylors’ words of wisdom: some sobering thoughts to ponder beyond all the excitement in the fandom discourse. (22) (23) (24) (25) (26) (27) (28) (29) (30)

These kind of information and perspective are a crucial and inseparable part of my take on things, since it gave me a better perspective and discourse.

So that’s how I made sense of Kaylor and how I formed my opinion on events throughout the journey.

Last but not least, the belle of the ball…

Karlie Kloss defies stereotyping in her own right 

Many may see Taylor Swift-Karlie Kloss as just one of those cliche famous musician-model pair up the likes of Adam Levine-Behati Prinsloo, John Legend-Christy Teigen, David Bowie (RIP)-Iman, Mick Jagger-Jerry Hall - of which the list goes on. Who is Karlie Kloss? Is she just one of those pretty faces? The 6 foot giraffe from the Lou does pack a whole lot of punches in answering the stereotyping thrown at her.

Flexing her inner-geek muscle and unleashing her kookie-monster self, Karlie breakdowns stereotyping on those in fashion industry and elevates the platform she has to reach out and opening opportunities for young girls in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) whilst opening her heart to those in needs. Owning most of the processes and ideas, her stereotype-defying passion has earned her accolades and acknowledgement from heavy weighters alike. 

Some of industries appreciation on her passions beyond fashion industry: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10)

Quarantine life and PR

Hey, Folks! This post is to try to help some people who still find it difficult to see and believe that there are relationships that are PR. And since this is a Kaylor blog (even if it’s not in my header, one day I’ll still update this. I swear!), I’ll pick up our favorite couple to illustrate some PR situations.

Before starting, an important point to note is that Karlie’s social media accounts have long since become an almost exclusively working tool. For those who followed Karlie Sunshine Kloss this is notorious. I don’t even remember the last time I saw a random post of her making funny faces or a silly video of her having real fun with her friends. Posts about herself, Karlie Elizabeth, are very rare. Anyway, nowadays, her IG is basically just work. That is, her posts are made to sell and promote certain products and people… like, KWK, IMG models, Jerk, Adidas, Estée Lauder…

Taylor in Quarantine:

1) Taylor said she started working in folklore when “they” (she and WB, she hinted to Apple) were stuck in LA during the lockdown (in California, started on 3/20/20) and that she stayed there for about 4 months. So Tay stayed in LA from late March until, more or less, late July/early August (Rolling Stones magazine).

2) On the day of the release of folklore, Aaron said in his IG that Taylor contacted him to work together in late April, and the next day (04/28) sended a cardigan for him (Tay’s IG “Not a lot going on at the moment”-04/27).

3) The lockdown was relaxed in California on 5/18. (x)

4) And even after the reopening of California, according to the dialogue between Tay and Jack during TLPSS (and Aaron in RS), folklore was recorded/finished when Tay was still in LA, at the “Kitty Committee Studio” aka the house her in LA. And only after the album was released did Taylor join the rest of the folklore family in Hudson Valley/NY, around the beginning of August (see item 1).

5) It was probably in the period between August-October that Taylor went to the UK. Period when the piano part of song evermore was recorded (if KK’s WB, she may have accompanied Tay, after all she spent most of the year using latergram, mainly after May), and when Tay made the video for GMA in the studio Marcus Mumford and also when she was papped with JA (I’m almost 100% sure). Why do I believe Taylor did all this in London, including the papped (published in 01/16/21), in 2020? Because London only relaxed the lockdown between June and October. In November the country started its second lockdown. And in the middle of December, there was an increase in the restrictions measures and there was a specific rule in effect that: “only one person from one household can find a person from another household, in a public and open space”. I don’t remember if this rule was already valid in November, but apparently it was. And as the “couple in love” lives “together” and in a “place of the two of them”, that Tay walk with the “mother-in-law” and JA could not have happened, since in January, once again the isolation measures were hardened, and in the 01/05, UK had started the third lockdown. During the period of November and until today, if I am not wrong, the restriction measures have only increased. That is, the papped is a latergram! (Sorry, Toe. Lie! I’m not sorry, “no, no, no, no”. Lol).

Could Taylor break through the block and pay a £ 200 fine? Of course, she’s a millionaire. But I think it is unlikely that she will do that, since she herself spoke of her displeasure at the inconsequence of people not respecting isolation. Not to mention the headache that Tree would have with the tabloids if she was caught breaking through the quarantine. Don’t forget, Taylor is terrified of bad publicity.

Tay’s PR was done after she avoided seeing the face of “oat milk” as much as possible, apart from their papped, and used the card “WB is my boyfriend” at the Grammy to try to sell the story that, even though he never appeared throughout 2020 with her, even for things related to folklore, they still staid quarantined together. And there is no use trying to justify his disappearance as WB with: “Ah! But they’ve a private relationship and he’s shy”. Okay, I respect both. But the purpose of creating and using a pseudonym for writing is precisely to hide the true author of a work. There’s no sense in them creating WB and a month later revealing their identity, if “Prince Charming” didn’t want to be noticed for that. Do you understand now?! And to make it clear, Taylor only revealed that she was Nils Sjöberg because people noticed her voice in the song, and started talking more about her participation instead of CH or Rihanna. And Calvin, being the asshole he is, started to claim that the success of the song was thanks to him who had created the hit.

Karlie in Quarantine:

1) At the beginning of the pandemic, Karlie was in NY for two months. A period in that cabin, supposedly, she was with Jerk. However, the few times he appeared, I think it was twice in her stories, guess who was with them? Jerk’s husband, Mikey Hess, who, despite being a “new father”, was spending time with them. During that time, some people here even realized that KK used latergram, at least once, while she was supposedly still there; And another period, in the city apartment, where she “lived” with Jerk, however, the only time he appeared with her in the apartment, it was a few days before Kar left NY, when they were papped on the building balcony.

2) Karlie was in California from mid-May to early August. Wait! Almost identical to the period that Taylor was in LA too… this is just a “Koincidence”, right?

3) Last year, on 5/18 (the same day as the relaxation of restrictive measures in California. Other Koincidence!), Kar posted a storie saying she was on her way to West with “Loved ones” (as she was seen days earlier on the porch with Jerk, implying that they were still isolated together, so it’s kind of implied that he went with her to LA). After KK published this post, a curious fact occurred, we had no idea where Tay could be and Kristine/Kimby lived in LA at that time, some here on the fandom still said, “Well, she has two sisters who live there. She may be going to stay with them”. A fair thought. However, on 05/20 Kar posted a video running on the beach and a pic with the Kloss women (#WomanCrushEveryday). A few hours later, Kristine, the sister who lives in LA, reposted KK’s pic and said she missed the sisters. WTH ?? Who did she go to stay with in LA? We were left with only one possibility, Taylor and their children furry and four legs, Mer, Dibles and Benji (The Swift Family!). After that she spent a long time without showing any pictures that she could say where and with whom exactly she was, despite posting a lot about BLM, KWK and old photos.

4) During that time, she showed us that she spent a few days at her parents’ home (Missouri) and most of that time, apparently, in California. I say apparently, because Karlie uses a lot of latergram to not say exactly where she is. For example, in July, she posted stories with KWK students for a few days while she was at the Kloss’ house. And in the middle of these stories, one day, she posted a video of a beach, as if she were on the coast. And Karlie did things like that, often in 2020. Another example, she was papped in NYC in August/September/November, but she was still posting photos and videos from her time in California, as if she were there at the time of post… That’s the incredible advantage of using latergram! She can be anywhere and pretend to be at the opposite end of her real location (Kar can do this easily because she’s a millionaire and learned to do it with the best person at being a ninja, her wife!).

5) Throughout her period in California Karlie had a long time without having to do stunts with Jerk personally, using only photos and videos alone, showing a beautiful house, supposedly hers, as a scenery. She was papped alone only once. Jerk appeared in a pic she posted and they were seen strolling together, all this only at the end of July. To be more exact, they were papped 3 times in those two weeks. And one of those times, were those photos taken in which Kar is wearing a white dress and a pissed off face. I remember reading around here, some people commenting on a girl who had said something like: “Karlie lives near where these pictures were taken. They’ve a house here in the neighborhood”. From what I understood from this conversation, the girl was saying that Jerk and Karlie own a house in the region. I don’t know who the girl was. In fact, I don’t even remember the blog where I read about it and much less do I know if this girl really existed or if it was all made up, the girl and the story (if someone saw this story and can share what/where it was, you don’t need to tag anyone and no blog, just share here how the story went). But even if neither the comment nor the girl is real, there’s someone else who hinted that Karlie had a house in California, one of her sisters.

Do you remember this photo?

Now see the comment from Kar’s sister!

After reading her sister’s comment, what does Kristine induce us to think? That this is the new kitchen at Karlie and Jerk’s house in California, right?! Okay!

Some around here have seen these photos and know where the house where Karlie spent a few days is, but for those who have not seen it yet, here is the link to two different sites of the same house. (x) (x) After I say all this, you must be asking yourself: “But where is the PR done by Joshlie 🤮?”. The PR was made through the suggestion that they both went to spend time in California together, in the photos that Karlie took in supposed “their new kitchen”, in the various photos and videos that KK took in supposed “their home” and in the papped of joshlie.

Now pretend for a moment that you never heard of Kaylor and that Jerk is not a disgusting person, okay?! If you had seen only what Karlie did in that last paragraph, you probably wouldn’t even look at this situation twice. You would just say, “Look! Karlie Kloss spent a season with her husband in California. Nice! Good for them.” Right?

Now, after you have seen Kar’s photo in the kitchen and looked at the photos of “Joshlie’s house” on both sites (Go look!), I will introduce to some, Misha Nonoo, the supposed woman (beard) of Mikey Hess (Jerk’s husband), at her home in California.

Did you notice anything in common in the pictures of both?

Look at the dates of the IG photos, in addition to overlapping the date of the photos, all photos were taken in the same house!

Kristine hinted that the house belongs to Karlie, but Misha claims that it belongs to her. WHAT?!

And the most interesting thing is not even trying to find out who the house belongs to. It does not matter! The real million-dollar question is: If Karlie is truly married to Jerk, and she just had “his” son and, according to many, is living her best life alongside the man “she chose instead of Taylor”, why did Karlie spend part of her time in California pretending to be just with Jerk, at “their house”, when in fact she was just covering up the time that Jerk and his husband were spending together hiding in that house in California? Or maybe, both guys weren’t even in LA, just their beards doing most of the dirty work, and they showed up after, only a few days, to do a photo or two to make people think they were there all the time (what’s typical of Jerk!).

To be more clear, if joshlie was real, Karlie would just have to share some quiet moments of the “couple in love” in his real house (and not pretend to be the owner of a house, even if the house was rented), or pictures of them having fun while sharing the house with the “couple of longtime friends”. It would be okay to show your “friends” if they were just that. But in this particular case, this cannot happen because there have been rumors for years that Jerk is married to Mikey Hess. Right here on tumblr there were pictures with Jerk’s personal data showing that he was already married even before “engaged” with Karlie, while her personal data showed that she was single.

Were you able to understand the PR here? Both beards, Karlie and Misha, tried to show some “intimate” moments during the quarantine, at “their” home. Too bad that because of these photos, Kar’s almost brilliant work went downhill because of some posts from the beard of Jerk’s husband, Misha.

But it was worth a try, Kar! Maybe next time, girl. 😉

👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏼❤👶🏻

P.s.: Do you know an interesting detail? While in California, Karlie appeared in a video, in front of a glass door that does not match either the frames of the supposed “her house” in a Mediterranean style, nor the doors of the Kloss house. Whose house is this, Karlie Kloss?

Anonymous asked:

There's a ridiculous video where Karlie goes the extra mile for whatever idiotic reason and reaches to kiss him goodbye in one instance and he's so oblivious that it takes him a moment to realize what she's doing and when he does he sort of turns his cheek and her lips barely land on his mouth. It's one of the cases where Jerk looks more forced than her to clown publicly. But, on the other hand, Karlie has to show she's worth his dirty bearding money, doesn't she now? 😒

Anonymous asked:

Notably there is zero evidence that he spent anytime with her other than for public show // Couldn't agree more, in fact, there's a video going around instagram where you can see Karlie 'kissing' him goodbye outside her hotel in Paris... if they're a "couple", why is he leaving?

Anonymous asked:

THIS IS GOLD! 👏 PURE 👏 GOOOOLD 👏! OMG ! look how awkward he is 😂😂! The failed attempt to make a 'cute' video of the couple...

hey, 9w1! hope you're having a great day.

genuine question, no intention to debunk or anything, just curious:

so, karlie is a model, right? that means, it's a part of her job to wear all the newest clothes and accessories, and then those stuff get sold to other people eventually, right?

isn't it possible that karlie possibly just has worn all of the new stuff already and it is a coincidence that some of those new stuff were bought by taylor because they're trendy or being sold at shops now? would it be likely that karlie and other celebs have matched clothing too coincidentally?

(disclaimer: i have no clue about how modelling or clothes work, i just saw a more eloquent version of this argument against koincidences/kaylor a while back, and wanted to hear your perspective on it. thanks!)

thanks for your question!

from my perspective, i think that this argument can work as an explainaway for a certain number of instances, but i do not believe it covers the breadth and depth of what we consider twinning.

because it’s not just about what taylor wears after karlie (or visa versa), but when, or for what special occasions, or the particular time elapsing between when things happen, or what taylor is doing while she is wearing said thing, similarity in composition, etcetera. and it’s seeing these things happen time and again, in aggregate, over time, and in combination with all the many other things we look at when we think about kaylor. whittling it all down to the point that models wear clothes before they are trendy is a little dismissive of the thought, intricacy, and planning that we as a fandom also laude taylor for in the same breath. taylor is a mastermind genius who says herself she hides easter eggs in clothing and jewelry… except for anything related to karlie?? hmm.

that is to say, while these explanations against twinning might be convincing if considered in a vacuum, they lack a consideration of the particular context of kaylor, and how people view taylor and karlie’s relationship.

for example, if the argument is to be made that taylor hates karlie and that they are feuding, it is so curious to me how she seemingly incorporates looks that are strikingly similar to what karlie wears into her art (music videos, live performances) which everyone can agree are personal and important to taylor. and if we get into some of the more intricate gaylor insistencies that taylor is broken hearted and karlie is just doing this to make money, well first of all how rude karlie is an established supermodel and businesswoman and it’s not even worth the investment to try and excite several dozen broke tumblr kaylors into spending money 😆 i can go more into detail on this point but i’m not exactly in the mood to throw down rn so i’ll leave it at that for the time being.

now, i recognize that this kind of thing will not do it for some people. and that’s fine! different types of things are compelling to different types of people. for me, as someone who was quite skeptical of twinning at first (back in 2017-18 when i first encountered kaylor), i’ve become quite taken by it all over the course of the last 4-5 years through the act of keeping tabs on it.

i encourage you or anyone curious but not swayed by twinning to take a look through these posts, and maybe keep it in the back of your mind for the time being. maybe at some point it will click!

I don’t like a gold rush, gold rush

I don’t like anticipating my face in a red flush

I don’t like that anyone would die to feel your touch

Everybody wants you, everybody wonders what it would be like to love you

Walk past

Quick brush

I don’t like slow motion, double vision in rose blush

I don’t like that falling feels like flying

‘Til the bone crush

Everybody wants you

But I don’t like a gold rush
