I Thought After “Hits Different” Came Out, We All Just Knew Taylor Was Some Kinda Fluid. I Remember

genuinely curious what hetlors think the visuals for lavender haze mean cause girlie is LITERALLY in the closet looking out

okok. so ive been compiling this since the first video came out promoting ttpd. i noticed the lights on the ceiling, and knowing taylor loves numerology, decided to look into it. walk with me.

so, first: there are 3 ceiling lights off, and 19 total. 3 19. march 19 was the opening day of the eras tour.

there are 7 lights on, 3 off, then 9 on. 7 9. july 9. which is mentioned in last kiss. which mentions the time 1:58, nearly 2am. taylor used 2 imagery a lot to promote this album, then released the second half of the album at 2 am.

the lights at the far end of the hall ceiling have 5 on the left, 4 right. 5/4. tolerate it & closure have 5/4 beat which is often broken into sub groups of 3+2 or 2+3. these beats are said to be 'unique' and stand out. this numerology also calls back to the exile ends countdown of 3, 2 from the bejeweled video.

left row of lights has 10, right row has 9. 10/9. release date of 'the 1' single

7 lights on, 3 off, 9 on. 739. i searched 739 taylor swift & i got a few things:

1. a link to a website called taylorpictures & it directs to pics from the VS 2014 fashion show

2. a cosmopolitan article that mentions the '739 celebrity cameos' (which includes a certain blonde model)

3. life size cardboard cutouts of taylor wearing specific outfits:

the dress on the left was the one she wore to a billboards award ceremony during lover era and sang 'ME!'

the one on the right was also from lover era and looks like the dress from the fortnight mv

739 is also a manifestation number:

the right row of lights has 8 on and 1 off. 8 1. august 1.

going back to earlier, the 1:58 reference. 15 8. check this out:

i'm not sure what all this means for sure, but i know 'none of it was accidental'. i'm gonna keep my eyes out for what happens august 15.

she was so good to us

I think it’s interesting that she started out this album out by admitting she’s an alcoholic (I know she says “I was a functioning alcoholic” as if she isn’t anymore but once you cross that line of becoming an alcoholic you are never not one, you will always be even if you don’t drink, at that point you become a recovering alcoholic and I know this because I grew up in AA rooms because my father was an alcoholic while he was alive) and how at every football game she was at you could see a drink in her hand or some type of alcohol being sat beside her.. it makes me think that what she didn’t want was to be at those games, but she had to so she was drinking to deal with it.

Also this album plays with humor in ways Taylor hasn't experimented with before and as with everything else she tries, she absolutely NAILS how to do it in a tasteful way.

okok. theory. taylor is an astrology girlie. what if she is using this "portal" to reinvent herself in the public eye and be more openly true & authentically queer? 'do you want to know where i was april 29' etc etc

oh. yep. its all her.

so The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived is for SURE about so many things, like scooter braun, scot swift, the music industry at large, her fans, etc. but. what about taylor talking to herself? she is The Man after all. so what about True Queer Taylor talking to Public Persona Taylor? i need to sleep but!!

Before TTPD, has Taylor ever used any typewriter imagery/references?

funny you should ask,

I’m not crazy, the stage lighting has really gone incredibly orange 🧡🤨

(Also noticed that the bracelets just went orange and white during BDILH)
