Homosexuality? In my university? It's more likely than you think.

The argument between my feminine and masculine energies.

A statement that needs no explanation; the ones who get it will get it.

Found this amazing TikTok video talking about how So High School is a satire song and how it's not romantic and people who use it for Tayvis content aren't listening to the song correctly (I agree 100% with this creator and love what they put into this video. It's 5 minutes and 18 seconds long.) I think the point that really seals the deal for me is just knowing that through her whole career she has said that High School was NOT a fun time for her. She has said that people thought she was weird and made fun of her for her musical talent and ambitions. I remember watching a video from a fearless era where she talked about how, during a VIP meet and greet people from her high school, they came to see her and apologized.. Lastly, the only people who romanticize high school are the people who peeked in high school, the ones who are stuck on being the toxic football players' girlfriends.

Death Mark II: 2 dead 2 mark

guilty as sin is literally cady and about you is literally regina.

[sourcitrusjuice]

every minute you don't talk to me

i remember the promises we made

i remember all the things you said

you would always love me.

you would never want to hurt me.

i remember the days you were the one crying

and i was there

but here i am, in the same place you left me in

to rot alone

crying over you.

and you exist, oblivious

or maybe you're not, and you just have better things to do.

the words coming out of your mouth don't fit your actions,

and I'd rather just be told how you truly feel, rather than whatever you say

to keep the wool over my eyes.

the wool has long been soaked in blood.

i think it's important you all know my literature teacher did well and truly write "homoerotic desire" as a theme for Victor Frankenstein up on the whiteboard today... this dude was so gay it's getting mentioned in a Catholic school 200 years later. Teachers aren't meant to mention gay people (see: Catholic) but it was imperative, I suppose.

A Pervert's Prayer

My sacred mutilation

Is to you an act of war

So what about all the pieces

You cut off before?

I was born from hatred

I was born in flames

I will know no fucking fear

And I am done with shame

I can take your punishment

And match it blow for blow

You can't show me any hell

I don't already know

I don't want your tolerance

I dont want your lies

You belong to yesterday

And you will fucking die

We are from the future

We're remembered there in song

The time to choose has been and gone

And you chose fucking wrong

These Articles of Faith

Which to you are Marks of Sin

Are written in the scars we make

On consecrated skin

Take the flesh back from God

Make yourself anew

You don't owe him anything

You belong to you

Love is love and that is that. ❤️‍🩹❤️

Miss Americana Documentary Taylor speaking to Brendon Urie about the Me! Music Video: “ And like whatever makes you, you. You know just like “Emo kids, theatre, dance sequences, La La Land everything.”

Brendon: “Nailed it!”

Taylor: “And when it’s like me-e-e it’s like “Dancers, cats, gay pride, people in country western boots” I start riding on a unicorn. Just everything that makes, me me. If you were to split open my imagination.

Mourning: the expression of deep sorrow for someone who has died

When I hear the line “You can mark my words that I said it first In a mourning warning no one heard.” I think of the Miss Americana documentary and how she talks about how she has felt misunderstood her whole career and she has been silenced from saying things she wanted to. When she talks about the creation of the music video for her song Me! She openly says gay pride is apart of her. One of the big parts of the documentary are about her political activism and being so loudly for the LGBT community by making the You Need To Calm Down video that was for gay rights. She said it first and no one heard her when she said “gay pride makes me, me.” they all just seen it as a form of activism and kept saying she was straight. It really showed how homophobic people still are. How something as simple as that and as clear as that is for people to just ignore it and say “oh no she didn’t mean it for herself” when she literally said it. She knows when the day comes that her hetlor and homophobic fans finally realize what she’s been saying this whole time it will be like a death. I think her Lover “activism” era really showed her how homophobic her fan base is and how they wouldn’t stand by her if she was very loudly queer. And so her being so loud about LGBT rights as an “ally” was a warning for her homophobic fans.

Thirteen year old me: I don't really get what the big deal with virginity is. If I never had sex I don't think I would mind. Why do people seem to care so much?
