To This Day, 9 Years Later, Taylor Still Honors This Moment With Her Girl. 😍

TTPD is such a great song in that I do agree it’s from Karlie’s perspective and it’s all about her bringing Taylor back down to earth. Taylor, as a creative person, feels her emotions strongly, doesn’t forget anything, and seems to fall into fantasy to escape her reality—a defense mechanism many of us who have had difficult childhoods recognize as life saving in many ways

Taylor is now an adult though, and this song seems to give us the perspective that Karlie has to lovingly be like GIRL get it together—“you’re not Dylan Thomas I’m not Patty Smith, this ain’t The Chelsea Hotel we’re modern idiots” is such a gorgeous line that I believe speaks to Karlie trying to get Taylor to stop romanticizing the past / her own trauma and to just work through it

As an artist myself, I absolutely was worried at one point that working through my own traumas would make me less creative, less able to make expressive art—this song made me realize maybe Taylor has some of those fears as well *hence* we are still here in the Land of Bearding in 2024 and Karlie’s like Bitch Please I’m here and I’ll always be here to help

They faces killing me why neither gaf

i wonder if there’ll be a valentine’s day merch drop this year, i do love a valentine’s day merch drop 🥰

love you, Karlie

Choose your fighter

And baby IIIIII get mystifieddddd by how this city.screams.your.name

i wanna be LSK but… //

I’m so sorry anon, but I personally find it really funny when people hear the songs where taylor is working through her feelings of being betrayed by Scott B and attribute them to karlie instead.

It’s like finding a man holding a gun standing over a dead body and saying, hang on a minute… what if the real murderer is the victim’s gf… because two of her friends liked a gossipy tweet written by a known shit-stirrer!

that is to say, we know for a fact that taylor felt deeply betrayed by scott b, seeing as he’s verifiably the actual person who sold her masters to scooter, after treating taylor like family since she was very young. it’s pretty self-evident he deserves the level of vitriol in the smallest man who ever lived (besides the other descriptive details that link him to tsmwel, mtr etc).

as for taylor and karlie suddenly never being seen together again (seemingly drifting apart a whole year before the heist even happened, remember?), well she hasn’t spoken on that, so naturally we read between the lines in the songs to find out. some people have taken the masters heist songs to be about karlie, and ran with that. but others see karlie and taylor’s retreat into privacy reflected in songs under the ‘love blackout’ theme (especially around here, you’re on a longtime kaylor blog 🙈)

love blackout = the hints taylor has put out again and again that she intentionally distanced her public image from karlie’s because it was too dangerous to carry on as openly as they had at first. 2016 election sadness themes, secret love themes, all consistent over the years. all while writing new love songs that use callbacks to the rep muse, to yail even 🥺. as if taylor’s been using all the confusion and her masterful quill of misdirection to achieve her priority of protecting karlie. not protecting karlie’s public image and clout with swifties, which she doesn’t need to maintain her success because she was always successful in her own right! no, it’s all for Karlie The Person in their secret bubble of reality. all this showmanship, you know. the great war, hello!!!! too many songs to name where the kaylor chandelier is safely out of sight, but you can still see flickers through the boarded up windows ❣️

so forgive me for having a chuckle. to any anons who sincerely🛸want to believe, I’m just throwing it out there that there are plenty of us that never found the karlie-betrayer theory convincing at all. if you take a closer look at everything, the timeline of events and all the songs since, does it really make sense? (especially when there are so many shitty men in the mix who are more obviously to blame lol)

~ if you post, thank you for facilitating this rant 9wing, I’ll get off my soapbox now xxx

yup yup

i think a lot of people are predisposed to blaming karlie and so everything becomes a sort of confirmation bias.. which partially, i would argue, was by design.. so in a sense i do not fault gaylors or others for falling into this hole. but i do sometimes feel like faulting them a tiny bit for those who never climb out of it. there’s plenty of information and clues needed to figure it out and climb out of it.

one thing i don’t like about the whole “let’s not talk about muses” discourse is while the spirit of it is supposed to be “let’s study why these songs sound gay instead of commenting taylor lyrics on these people’s instagram pages,” in practice the phrasing almost is like giving yourself permission to pass judgement on the people in taylor’s story and then never reevaluate them. people often say ~lets not talk muses that’s invasive and gross~ and conveniently refuse to adjust their perception of karlie (for example) based on what taylor is putting out there, while making convenient exceptions for any interpretation they find that works to reinforce their already negative perception of her. and then after bitching about her they’ll cover their timeline in lisa frank dolphins because apparently that’s what paradise is. i dunno. it all feels dystopian to me atp 😆

Every single time I listen to Robin I just stare out the window absolutely floored she actually allowed this song to see the light of day

This is a song from a parent to a child, full stop

She said I can’t tell you but I’m gonna tell you anyways

Karlie was brave enough to go to a stadium where 80% of the attendance hated her guts and all while her body was still weak from childbirth like… no one in the world can say she wouldn’t do anything for her girl like I could cry thinking about the implications of that night fr

YES! I don’t think people understand the scope of that in terms of just having given birth—you feel like you got hit by a truck, your emotions are all over the place, you feel gross looking, your boobs are leaking and she did THAT in a crowd full of idiots who attack her online daily
