In 2016 I was very left, mad at the establishment and progress not being made fast enough and made one of my most regretted decisions. I cast a vote that enabled Trump. I will carry that to my grave with remorse. I’m just trying to keep yall from making the same mistake. 1/4

These stories are some of my favorites. He had it coming. I need you to bring this stuff to Threads though. 💛 I hate having to come to this hellsite to catch up on your tweets.

This isn’t accurate. Check any seed catalogue and you have to buy each color separately. Grow them, and you’ll discover they only exist in two colors- green- and their ripe color.
🧵 Something I’d like to see someone do a deep dive on and maybe an updated account is how Taylor seems to do a lot of quiet lifting up behind the scenes. For example- this lyric convinced with the YouTube short- she KNEW she was boosting that business owner to unprecedented

We were in a peds ER last month and the genx nurse spent as much time taking care of me as she did my child and I can’t let myself think about it because it was the first time in my life I actually felt mothered. 😭
@countmytime
I’m so confused by this take. As much as the world sucks right now, during no crisis, ever, no matter how large, did the world shut down. People made art, did their laundry, went to work and just tried to survive.
So this was released November 25, 2020 and by fall 2023 she was caught up in the telling of a sports story and 3.5 years later, we have the alchemy which she is clearly Easter egging here.
Damn she’s organized
Stonewall using Taylor Swift as a mascot- especially repeatedly during pride- is important because:
1. It would be grossly inappropriate and awful to do that to a person that *wanted* to stay closeted.
2. It would be equally bad to use a straight person.
3. Taylor is gay.
@queerBengali
Stacy Abrams discusses them in This Is Our Time and her campaign proved that it’s easier to get disenfranchised voters than it is to get undecided voters. Super interesting all around because there’s soooo many more disenfranchised voters.
Quick reminder that it took Tree Paine literally minutes to clap back against a social media account pushing engagement and pregnancy rumors. Meanwhile there have been multiple pro gaylor publications that she has chosen to not publically slam.
@francescamar6
In my experience becoming a parent is one of the more radicalizing things one can do. Somehow the already existent rage hits a new level.
Conspiracy theory- more big swifties are Gaylors than we realize and some are just careful on what they say publicly. I’ve noticed several point out things that are very gaylor coded but because it’s them saying it, no one notices. And they’re the perfect people to do that.
I think the Britney hug was planned. Because it created days of think pieces and performative activism that all drew more attention to a perfectly timed announcement to have maximum impact.
She’s playing 3D chess and yall mad when she’s loosing the checkers game.
Can Gaylors agree that when the (apparently) inevitable engagement announcement happens that we’re not gonna freak out? We’re just sit calmly and let it play out.
levels. Swifties will swarm anything connected to Taylor’s name and image. And I have noticed a pattern that she may be intentionally using this to support Bipoc and women and lgbtq businesses. Actual allyship instead did performative posting. Note the $4k bonuses. 2/3
This book is supposed to be a novel about PR relationships by a Pr manager that has coordinated some. I was so desperate to read it that I signed up for an audible trial. 🫠 I’ll try to remember to update this thread with anything that seems important.

Someone can be both an enabler and a victim of abuse at the same time. Anyone with a solid knowledge about domestic violence knows this.
Because let’s face it, a celebrity posting about a cause never actually changed anything. But silently masterminding so people support things actually does make a difference. And this isn’t the first time I’ve suspected this was happening, but it’s the most obvious/easy to prove.
I need Gaylors to look up the concept of “Need for Cognition” (Wikipedia article is great). I think it explains a lot about how different factions of the fandom handle things.
But the short version below if you don’t have the executive functioning to leave this app. 😉
If someone held a gun to my head and forced me to guess who I thought Taylor was with, I’d say Blake. So very hidden in plain sight with others serving as decoy muses.
I’m not sure I’m right and don’t discuss it much to respect them both, but I’m quite suspicious.
Pretty sure this is what we were actually supposed to pay attention and to the rainbow dress was just bait.
I would guess it means we’re getting close to the balcony scene but we’re not quite there as the dress isn’t finished.
For some reason, this damn app isn’t allowing me to post a massive thread I just made about a coming out theory. So this will come in phases. 🙃
I present: But Daddy I Love Him will be coming out song-
I would like to add:
Got graded on a curve- did all the extra work to stay closeted and beard and play the game by the rules only for other celebrities to be accepted when they came out. She did the work and the rules changed.
I think I’ve been too “good” of a girl
Good=virtuous
Did all the Extra credit = overcompensate to fit in (PR) overshadowed my artistry
got graded on a curve=
bent 🏹💘 the truth so no one could see me
Nice!

Swifties thought this was an easter egg for roses leading up to 1989. These are carnations. The leaves, pedicel (where the flower and stem join) and the growth pattern of the stem and how it branches are all distinctly carnation, not roses.
The carnations you thought were roses
If you want a fun little project research how the Rock spent exactly 10 years married to his PR manager but had otherwise never been connected to a woman. I wonder what games he’s talking about?
as Taylor sings friend of dorothea in the lesbian lover suit what's the media saying about her "bf" Travis? oh ACTING CAREER & The Rock!?! Dwayne Johnson: the voice of The Man 🤯 + his Seven Bucks Productions just got a new deal with Disney 🎭
"it's all part of the game..." 👀
Sore throats are a symptom of autoimmune diseases. Many of us have had one for years or decades. I just lie and say I don’t have any symptoms. Because I don’t have any *abnormal* symptoms. But if you’re sick and not trying to protect others, I hate your guts.
Y’all. 5 last night. 4 tonight.
Two shows for 3 and 2, then the show when we get to 1 - IS FUCKING PRIDE MONTH.
She’s saying goodbye to the fans she’s about to lose with YOYOK x Long Live. I just fucking know it.
I’ve been obsessing over “try to come for my job” because I was sure it meant something and I wasn’t sure what.
I think it’s her preemptive response to those that will try to cancel her when she comes out.
She’s saying I’ve already survived so much- I’ll survive you too.
I don’t normally participate in the predictions, but I’d be willing to bet actual money that Taylor will play Guilty as Sin tonight. Reason:
“If I roll the STONE away, they’re going to crucify me anyways.”
5th anniversary of stonewall performance.
It would confirm connection.

This feels kind of like that tiktok sound “people get so depressed they don’t shower???” “People get so depressed they DIE”.
Anxiety can be truly disabling. So thank you for sharing workarounds. 💛
I didn’t say it before because I do fear hurting feelings of any lurkers (yes, I have a people pleasing problem, why do you ask?). But I was sure from the first time I heard it that ICDIWABHeart would be on the set list. It’s written like she *wanted* to perform it.
I’m going to take a risk (I hate being wrong, but I don’t see how I am) and say that the next era will be a fully saturated rainbow. The full thing. Moreso than Lover was. It’ll go 💚💛♥️💜🩵🩷🩶🤎💙🤍🏳️🌈
Let me guess, the internet is going to launch into critiquing every mini-expression of this little kid and all I see is a child exhibiting all the signs of overstimulation and not making eye contact and being very happy in their own quiet special (infinitely positive) way.
🧵Taylor Swift has NEVER said that she’s straight. What she DID say is: “i didn’t realize I can advocate for communities I’m not a part of” IMMEDIATELY after saying anyone not a “straight white man” is losing rights. Clearly the context of that sentence is larger than the 🌈

FINE, I'll indulge in one moment of muse musing. Dorothea; at the hometown show in Philly; twin; 2014 mems; mom to Inez, James, & Betty who call her Aunt Taylor; 2nd person to hear new songs; pap walk queen; close friends who grab upper thighs. May I Blaylor polylor on main? 👯♀️✨
Controversial take. Yoyok is not sung to gaylors but to herself about summer 2019 and on.
Summer went away, still the yearning (to be free) stays
I play it cool (stay in the closet)
He’s going to notice me (us), we’re the best of friends
I can’t keep up with who had who blocked so sharing this this way to make sure all see it. Confirms what we thought/knew , the Gaylor references by TN are not accidental.
We’ve officially moved from “stop speculating” to “you’re outing her (but we know she’s gay”.
How long until we hit “I knew she was gay, I was just being rEsPeCtFuL”?
Y’all even if she’s queer, y’all trying to out her without her consent is fucked up and the replies do be showing y’all don’t give a shit about that so….
What are our theories for how Taylor will come out? It’s clearly inevitable.
Right off, I don’t think she’d do it at an eras tour. I lean towards a a multi faceted approach that will include a Rolling Stones cover, tv interview and slight chance of a documentary?
@ravenscimaven
My childhood was hijacked by the fact my parents were in a cult and very abusive. I’ve found even the simplest reminiscing conversations get awkward fast. 🫠
Watching old interviews looking for clues we may have missed. Currently on this one immediately post midnights release and she fucking says “the manuscript”. 🙃

Hey, as a disabled person, can I ask that you listen to use instead of telling us what we need or don’t need?
There’s more to disabilities than just wheelchairs. And there’s more lifestyles than just urban. The revolution has to be inclusive. 💛
I was cursed like Eve got bitten.
Eve isnt recorded to have been bitten (at least in the current Protestant version of the Bible… I’ll spare everyone that I infodump).
But is Taylor making a point with that or just referencing the often accepted folklore?
Hot take: one reason neurodivergent people have a tendency to say “I hate it here” and “I wish I’d been born in another time” is because our current society and technology is so overwhelming and overstimulating and the idea of candlelit silence is better than heaven.

Can I recommend a high school science book to get started with. Or Wikipedia if that’s more your budget level. Start with studying the Immune System, Liver, and Kidney pages. Make sure to read all hyperlinked pages. 💛
@hannnahmmarie
The level of privilege to be handed a way to make a tangible difference in 300million people’s lives (and to a lesser degree 8billion) and instead chose not too, because it’s not enough of a difference had honestly shaken my entire view leftism and society.
Super controversial take- some of the Easter eggs we attribute to a specific muse are likely just gay Easter eggs. There are muse specific Easter eggs but I think some of them have transitioned to just mean “gay!!!” Not “gay with ___!””.
Note- I said *some*.
Said with love. 💛
This thread is brilliant. And it explains why there’s a white flag flying over the ICDWABH skit that Taylor chose to place front and center in today’s post. We are at pretend peace while the Trojan horse sneaks in.
okay apologies if i’m just late to the party, but i was just thinking of the line in mastermind, “you know all the wisest women had to do it this way / cuz we were born to be the pawn in every lover’s game” and how it references the myth of Iphigenia and Agamemnon
Neutral PR conspiracy - Biden dropping out was decided 1-2 weeks ago and the appropriate people were notified and a campaign strategy put in place before hand. This also gave them a chance to blindside *them* after the RNC. 1/3
The Great War Theory 🧵
The Great War (also known as WW1) began 110 years ago TODAY, on June 28, 1914. It ended (treaty of Versaile) on June 28, 1919, exactly five years later and 105 years ago. It took place during a global pandemic.

I know we’d all love a BUA, BUT-
If Travis and Taylor were to go on the campaign trail with Kamala it would absolutely shift voter turnout numbers.
A lot of impressionable young people worship the ground they walk on. Weaponize it.
@leavemetoheavnn
I agree with you but I don’t think she will say she’s lesbian when she comes out. I expect something more vague to protect people in her past. Like she said, maybe the truth will be declassified in 50years when the NDAs expire.
@bytaylorsdesign
She’s also participated in AIDS fundraisers. I don’t remember the exact number but it was a silent auction and she bought Hugh Jackman’s jacket and took pictures with him.
There’s also a fair bit about how some agents will use Mafia type techniques to control their own and others clients. Beatings. Folks disappearing. And that’s for lower level scandals like cheating, not being gay or trying to speak about a controversial international crisis. 🙃
@swiftstpds
I’m very curious to know what similarities you see. I just reread it (and now I’m crying 😭) and the only one that jumped out at me was this.
🧵I’ve noticed every single “don’t vote” person I’ve checked on didn’t have kids. But guess what? I do. I’ve got a queer kid who has a girlfriend/crush/best friend situationship and come January I don’t want to have to tell ger she’s got to keep that a secret now because it’s
I just realized that Electric Lady Studios has to be about as secure as the rooms the gov use to discuss classified materials.
Regularly searched for hidden mics and cameras and all that. It’d be the perfect place to host a party that would remain truly private.
@cornerihaunt_
Also she looked quite unhappy in Fridays pap photos and Friday was a hard day for a lot of folks so there could be various reasons… but I smell a “breakup”.
They also talk about faking a pregnancy. Wearing a bump and then having a “miscarriage” to then have an excuse to breakup.
Not saying I approve of this. It’s just what they communicate.
