a straight ally doesn’t know about the sort of lesbian and queer history that only lesbians and other queer people would know about.
this cements it for me. the two sides of 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!!
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.
So I came across this comment on a random reddit post…
I had never heard that before, but the first thing I thought of was all the pearl imagery in Taylor’s latest video.
Pearls, pearls & more pearls. Maybe something, maybe nothing at all. Just thought it was worth a share. ⚪️
taylor swift really gave us a mental break down and then said double it and give it to the next everyone
The cat photo looks like her with Meredith, posted on her IG on Christmas day 2018. But the picture is flipped, in the one she posted Meredith was on the left.
Thinking about the room and hallway in general, they are very modern-looking compared to the midnights room that we transitioned out of, even the door looks newer - but the typewriters are old. And why has she gone from pens to a typewriter? In the background you can hear a ticking clock, typing (I think) and, faintly, a modern-sounding phone. Everything is modern except the typewriters. And they are older than the typewriter from ATW short film which someone identified as being early 60s. Sorry I've gone off at a tangent here but why have such a modern room with old typewriters? Also, it doesn't look like it's an environment that's conducive to creativity. More like a factual/ business-like one.
Yes I think I found it. Weird that it's mirrored thought...
But you know what else jumped out at me? That jumper with the lightning pattern is part of a two piece set, and where have we seen this before? Here:
In the scene in MA where she finally makes her post endorsing a Democratic candidate. Her defiance moment. Certainly an interesting throwback...
RE your observations of the corridor and 'office', it gives me major psych ward vibes, which seems a common theme in a lot of the reactions. Like the end of a movie when a the protagonist wakes up and it was all a dream/hallucination all along. Interesting in the light of her "submitting evidence", are the songs the evidence to show that TS the brand was a hallucination all along? I like this observation from someone on twitter:
The lover house with all her eras was a hallucination and now we're about to enter the cold hard reality...👀
i've heard rumors that the leak Could be AI...or an Intentional Thing? all the 2 imagery...&& the ERROR 321 thing with 'red herring'...maybe...?
I’m not crazy, the stage lighting has really gone incredibly orange 🧡🤨
(Also noticed that the bracelets just went orange and white during BDILH)
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 said so long in london and will fuck it all up in florida. the eras tour picks back up in florida on october 18. if this is the end of the 'glitch'/'love blackout', 2190 days prior was october 20 2018. and on october 21 2018 taylor posted a picture on instagram of her playing scrabble with the caption 'baby let the games BEGIN.'
taylor nation posted a specific clip of taylor singing wildest dreams starting with 'you'll see me in hindsight' & ending with 'i'm burning it down'....girl. i really think shes gonna light the match on taylor TM soon. the glitch will end....
