To be clear: i don't think a single TS song in the past decade is exclusively about 1 thing.

I am not gonna preface every single post I make with that disclaimer because character limits already make my life harder.

Similarly, I'm not wasting character space every post declaring: this is a theory

In a People article PETERson stated..

“As CASSANDRA , it wouldn’t have mattered to me that people knew about our relationship, but I felt the need to protect Elvira in order to keep my career alive.”

I cant decide if they're fully lavender or bi 4 bi

Aerin Moriarty(they/them) @aerinmoriarty.bsky.social · 20h

I was so confused at first cause I thought the tone was curious/interested and so many folks are luke OMG WHY DO YOU HATE HER

And I'm like... did you not at least click my profile and see that its basically devoted to interpreting Taylor... theyre just projecting so much about themselves.

"Ranunculus flower’s Latin meaning “little frog”, most likely deriving from their natural habitat of lake beds and streams where little frogs frequented."

Welp.

It blows my mind how many Swifties call me insane, a hater, weird, quote Actually Romantic, all for *checks notes* noticing Taylor has been wearing a wig/topper.

Swifties are the single biggest thing holding back analysis of Taylor’s work & it’s rich that they think what they’re doing is sane.

I knew there was an awful lot of wigginess going on for this album promotion cycle, but save a couple of her Directorlor recorded moments that we can’t precisely date, it was hard to find anything tha...

Somw of the muse-specific Gaylors seem to be taking this esp hard.

I do think this was to shake many folks' faith in their muse theories.

Aerin Moriarty(they/them) @aerinmoriarty.bsky.social · 1d

I think a LOT of folks realize subconsciously that these songs are shaking their faith in how they view her and the meanings of her songs and instead of sitting in that discomfort and shifting how they view her, they're just lashing out.

It's like how our bullies knew we were gay before we did, lol

Interesting timing on this article about lavender marriage.

He’s gay. She’s straight. They’re happily married.

Meet the couples who are redefining what it means to be in a relationship, including those in gay-straight and same-sex platonic marriages.
