i think sometimes this is challenging for us because we caught the thread so early. many of us are neurodivergent pattern recognizers w/ a heavy taylor hyperfixation. we were so early that sometimes it can even feel like taylor herself is behind. this was only meant to register with the public now

gaylors are no longer performing mental gymnastics. they're those chinese acrobats who fly through the tiny hoops 10 ft off the ground.

Same. I’m truly and literally mad about how obtuse people are being. They can’t actually be serious? 😵‍💫

I was getting ready to say this. Her tone also is just more excited, higher, and happier. It’s classic infodump

The collars continue.

Carnations you thought were roses

Very clearly wearing extensions. No way they can deny it.

I cannot take someone seriously once they try to tell me Travis is MAGA.

She’s very proud today! Even though it’s not sourdough 👀

She said on calling that wood is tongue in cheek so I don’t think they want that being about him either

I deleted. I shouldn’t be posting with a migraine because clearly my brain is soup. Thanks for the correction

She also said it is “tongue in cheek” on Fallon

if you'd told me last week we'd have a taylor swift song where she says "it's kind of making me wet" and the most speculated upon muse for that song is a woman, i would absolutely NOT have believed you and yet here we are

She's letting us sit and watch the rest of the fandom catch up. These are our "free reading periods" because we actually did the homework.

My husband pointed out that it's really funny that the song everyone is saying is about Travis's penis is also the shortest song on the album. And that the woman who is known for her bridges didn't even give that song a bridge. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Talks about how close JayZ’s team is to Taylor’s and they collab and communicate informally frequently. The way she says it is interesting.

Calls football “violent chess” and “gladiator”.

“I have not walked a dog in Florida or maybe ever”. Florida mention?!

“My uniform (of 2008) was that I was late for the COWBOY themed junior prom”.

Extensive conversation about Ed not having a phone/access to tech. “He has to find an iPad. THEY HAVE TO GIVE IT TO HIM LIKE HE’S A CHILD”.

She’s obsessed with touching the button and there’s no way that’s not an inuendo. 😂

They’re playing a made up game with rules they make up as they go. Which feels like an illustration of the entire rollercoaster ride we’re on.

Draws attention to 2008. “Gilded Age”.

I will give credit to the crowd- they’re more excited by her owning her masters than they are the engagement (or it’s edited to appear that way).

She’s very excited about pushing the buzzer. So we need to pay attention to this.

Draws attention to the song “that’s so true” by Gracie Abram’s.

They point out that ever since Jimmy Fallon did the New Heights podcast the chiefs have won every single game. They talk about superstition and so on connected to that. Chiefs went on to lose last nights game.

“At this point Taylor is our department of education. And I think that’s fine”

They’re SCREAMING that she’s teaching if anyone would only listen.

“The character of the poet… and the character of the showgirl….”

She specifically says this album is tongue in cheek.

Jimmy calls Taylor Mother

I didn’t realize his opening montage has the Empire State Building. Maybe the ESB clues are connected to him?

Pope Leo mention. I remember someone proposing he is involved somehow.

Notes on the Jimmy Fallon Taylor Swift interview.
Will slowly add to this because I’m not going to get it done tonight.
