“That’s the joy of the double entendre, people think they know what I’m talking about but it just goes right over their head” -Taylor swift speaking about wood….. youtu.be/Evt_y5Rwpk0?... ok so the conventional interpretation isn’t true then confirmed

i just spent my first 15 min on TT in over a month -- and first since the release -- and WOWWWW people are actually really starting to see the cracks in the facade it's wild

“Have the Gaylors been right this whole time?”

Yes.

Listening to the back half of the album with this in mind really made things look a lot different for me. I think Wi$hli$t could be her singing about what queer celebrities (queer people in general) want. They just want to be around fellow queer people and have the world leave them the fuck alone

reposting for clarity: I think taylor might be quietly referencing “New Kids on The Block” with her “have a couple kids, got the whole block looking like you.”

it was driving me nuts because the language choices were so specific and contradictory to what we (think) we know about her

I also have a more in depth thread on my thoughts on this pinned in my profile

I totally can see this as a possibility within the context of the play within a play

I didn’t even get into how hamlet and Ophelia were together but then hamlet accidentally killed her father and drove her mad

All these old Taylor’s have to die during act 5 in order to have the phoenix rise from the ashes on December 13.
femmelor.bsky.social
The need to please the crowd is what killed every version of Taylor along the way. But here on Dec 12, (likely December 13th at midnight) we see a resolution. Someone will rise forth from the ashes of all this destruction to tell the story.After all, Chely wright said coming out is “like a birthday”

Laertes falls first and warns Hamlet ‘thou art slain’ and that ‘the king, the king’s to blame’. Referring to Claudius who commited the original attack on hamlets father to gain the throne.

The crowd is your king…the kings to blame.

Act 5/ Nov 29- Dec 12: the resolution

Act 5 gets wild. Hamlet apologizes to and sympathizes with Laertes, who has lost his father and sister. There is this huge fight where Gertrude, Laertes, hamlet, and Claudius are all poisoned and die.
femmelor.bsky.social
Moment in the spotlight as the protagonist. But in the end, this can only go on for so long, there has to be a resolution. Every story ends. Which brings us to act 5.

How much of Ophelia’s suffering is hamlets fault? Hamlet just wanted to protect his own family and made a mistake. When Ophelia dies by su*cide from her madness, should hamlet also suffer? I think Taylor has had so many reinventions, times where she killed off one character to give the next their
femmelor.bsky.social
My ideas for connections to Taylor: we are the reader. Trying to discern who is at fault for all these characters suffering/death. Who can be blamed? It’s not easy to just point a figure at one certain offender. A good guy and a bad guy. The lines are blurred.

Act 4/ Nov 15- Nov 28 : falling action

Following Polonius's death, Ophelia descends into madness. Hamlet is exiled. Laertes, polonius’s son returns and vows he will avenge his fathers death and his sisters suffering.

Key event:Ophelia’s madness and death by drowning.

Also, the play is called the mousetrap. “If it feels like a trap you’re already in one”
femmelor.bsky.social
Polonius serves as a symbol of corruption. His death at the hands of hamlet leads to hamlet being EXILED. to England. Yes I’m serious… exiled
femmelor.bsky.social
Act 3/Nov 1-Nov 14: Climax

The play within a play exposes Claudius, the betrayer. In a fit of rage, Hamlet accidentally kills polonius who was eavesdropping. Polonius is characterized by his arrogance and desire for approval. He is a hypocrite, and he is the father of Ophelia.
femmelor.bsky.social
The key event from Oct 18-Oct 31 can be summed up as: “Hamlet uses the play to observe Claudius's reaction to a scene depicting a king's murder, hoping to confirm his guilt”. Which makes me think of 🎵”the crowd is your king”… maybe she will turn on a subset of fans here? Or make them look bad?
femmelor.bsky.social
Oct 18 (a date many of us have already been looking into) will mark the beginning of act 2. From Oct 18 to Oct 31, we can expect the rising action…Hamlet feigns madness and arranges a play within a play to expose Claudius. Are we going to witness the play within the play unravel?
femmelor.bsky.social
Also in act 1, Hamlet encounters the ghost of his betrayed father, who demands he avenge his death. Hamlet decides to craft a sneaky plan….

@meandmyghosts.bsky.social first suggested the idea that the timing of this era could be impacted by Hamlet, where each Act is represented in a Fortnite. By that measure, on today October 9, we are halfway through the first act. We have been introduced to the characters and setting.
