The tomb won't close ➡️ What if I roll the stone away?

Thank you for the lovely floriography.

The ranunculus symbolism is of charm and attraction. In short, the charm represented by ranunculus flowers extends to both the idea of beauty and the idea of delighting someone (“to be charming.”) A bouquet sends a message that says, “Your charm delights me.”

With the original lyrics for the beginning of the chorus, I see this song re: Taylor's comeback after her rep era. "All that time I sat alone I'm my tower, I was just hoping my powers" her fans dug her out of her grave, and she's given six album drops to keep them up all night since her comeback.

I need someone to talk me out of buying the "thank you for the lovely bouquet" shirt. 🙏

That night we were talking false prophets & profits they make in the margins of poetry sonnets
All those prophets are wrong. They don't know the life of a showgirl, & they're never gonna wanna.
No deal, that 1950s shit they want from her. She's married to the hustle. This love (💿🎬) is pure profit.
This love is pure profit… that night we were talking false profits.

Came to mine after seeing a Gracie post yesterday.

She's taking control. She wants us to give her our attention while she makes moves.

No more deep V neck, but... she's getting pushed off the balcony soon.

You know how to boule, I know Aristotle.

For him it's a game; for me it's a show.

Larkspur and hawk as the brand for her bubble necklace and an aquamarine heirloom ring in the synchronized swimming scene. Rita shoes. I'm so sure.

The Life of a Showgirl is Blank Space in long-form.

I could see this as a valid take. But we can't forget the framing device: "Mommy" Laura Dern! In my mind, she represents "mother" Taylor, and the Haims represent Taylor's musical mentees/"Taydaughters(😬)". Mommy is Taylor™️ from Blank Space. She's Nothing New. The Mastermind. The MV is a circle! 🔁

Interested to see what this announcement brings. A maroon countdown clock.

That's a real fucking legacy: to leave.

Tell me that Taylor's lyrics/imagery/album aesthetics aren't gay, and I can probably find a Sappho fragment that says otherwise. See: the prevalence of violet/gold midnight/daylight themes

well, y'all. what are we thinking?

This, but also not this. Task/analysis paralysis, but also don't tell me what to do.
I need step-by-step instructions for assignments, but I don't read manuals/instructions when I'm doing a thing on my own.
I prefer reverse engineering, but you can't use reverse psychology.
That's that me AuDHD/PDA.
what i really need in life is someone to just make all my decisions for me. i THRIVE when told what to do. with no direction, im paralyzed. what is this mental illness

This is my first time watching The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls In Love (Netflix). I thought I was wrecked over the exchanging of Leaves of Grass. But then Evie says, "So unshelter me." 😭

Media recs with more tender Sapphic moments like this in my replies, PLEASE!

Shoutout to everyone out there who can't listen to The Best Day because Mother Wound. 🫶 I hope you were able to find a bit of peace today.
