how to stop being delusional 101

[mosiacbroken]

im sure lots of people will listen to TTPD and discount it because she talks about matty in it (and ofc people have their valid issues with him, but im not gonna go into that), but the whole lead up to the album has been “we’re investigating,” and imo a lot of us took that as her saying “we’re investigating why my relationship ended” whereas the album is actually about “we’re investigating this caricature of a girl who went through something life-changing, and she has apparently gone crazy” and she’s basically done a public autopsy of herself; something that the media/fans/public have done since the beginning, but this time around she was like “i’ll do it to myself.”

hence, the album aesthetic feels so sterile too imo. she’s trying to distance herself from the subject but!!!!!! she is the subject. and in conclusion, i think what she’s really putting down is “the summary of the investigation of this girl is that she went insane because of what happened to her, but it’s hopefully gonna be okay”

sidenote: i think what we need to take away from the album is to… let her live…

‘and sometimes it gets me when crossing your jet stream, we both did the best we could do underneath the same moon in different galaxies’ is so fucking devastating bc not only does it allude to call it what you want, but also all of the references across her work implying that what they had was fate, sent to her by the universe, divine intervention. all the imagery of ‘starry eyes sparkling up my darkest night’ and ‘once upon a time the planets and the fates and all the stars aligned’ and ‘he’s passing by rare as the glimmer of a comet in the sky’ come crashing down into the reality that they were always just outside of each other’s orbit

The “I could see you as my new addiction, you can see me as a secret mission” to “you kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath” to “why’d you whisper in the dark just to leave me in the night” to “at least I had the decency to keep my nights out of sight” to “I loved you in secret” to “I don’t want to keep secrets just to keep you” to “playing hide and seek and giving me your weekends” to “that's the thing about illicit affairs and clandestine meetings and stolen stares, they show their truth one single time but they lie, and they lie, and they lie a million little times” pipeline 🙃

thinking about 20 year old taylor writing “may these memories break our fall” right after wrapping up the fearless tour and 22 year old taylor writing “are we only biding time 'til I lose your attention?” right before wrapping up the speak now tour

i'm so so excited for ttpd because its gonna be a fire album i can feel ittttt but im also so scared bc it being a breakup album in itself will definitely stir a lot of hate and i don't think anyone's ready for that...

people are calling what happened today in gaza “the flour massacre”

the flour massacre

these people just wanted to get food for their families, something as basic as flour, one of the things that the very core of humanity is built on, and israel used it as a trap to murder them in cold blood

evil is not enough of a word. there is not a word to describe what they are doing to palestine. they are bleeding her out, they are torturing her and crushing her and hoping that nothing is left to remember her by when they are done. how can anyone stand and watch what is being done with indifference? how can you watch this level of human suffering, this crime against life and feel nothing, do nothing

if I had a nickel for every time I have heard starlight playing in a Wendy's at 9pm I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice

Allow me to introduce you to the City of Folklore est. 2020, population 1,989.

I made this because one day (9/6/20 to be exact) I got a visual in my brain of this town where all the folklore stories were playing out down the road from each other. You had the swanky hotel, downtown bars, a childhood haunted house, the salt box house by the sea, cannons firing at the yacht, robbers to the east, clowns to the west, etc etc. I decided that when i finished it (which wasn’t until July ‘23) I would gift it to Taylor if I could, partly as a thank you for her generosity and kindness to me during the early days of the pandemic … but also bc I thought it might be cool for her to see how her music created all this imagery and was so inspirational.

I was fortunate enough to be able to give this to her dad for her (I folded it up and put it in a gallon ziploc) at the July 28th show at Levi’s and while I don’t know if she ever got it - and got to be the one searching for Easter eggs for a change 😉 - I hope maybe she did. 💞

(second but lighter pic of it with some pins still in it while i was quilting it… like the complete fool that I am, I didn’t take a ton of pics of it when it was done).
