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.

Which was more culturally significant... the renaissance or Taylor singing Dress? 🔥💜
right where you left me goes so fucking hard. y'all heard this shit??? the way she sings breathlessly in one run on sentence until she hits the chorus like skidding to a halt at the edge of a cliff like??? have you HEARD this shit?????? bitch!!!!
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,
manifesting a pride month performance of bejeweled where she says '& by the way...i'm coming out tonight!'
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.

just remembered when i was a kid and singing the she/her "man's perspective" of 'our song' my dad told me i should 'sing it right' with he/him pronouns & i forced myself to change the literal song when i sang it...took me another decade to come out (fkr clocked me (& taylor))
