Dive Deep into Creativity: Your Ultimate Tumblr Experience Awaits
My favorite thing about question..? is that taylor singing about what she would say to karli's little gay husband
"Did you every have someone kiss you in a crowded room?" Kiss gate. the 1975 concert. The Matty Healy relationship was to point back to Karli and kiss gate and you are in love. she's trying to scream hey, look at us, this is the lead singer of the band karli and I went to see when we kissed. That why matty had said he wasn't writing songs about taylor, cause it wasn't real, it was a hair pin dropped right on the doorstep of kissgate.
"Do you wish you could still touch ...her?" the dots infer that there was a pause, a secret code between beards
"When (he) says it's too much" whoever was Josh's gay lover (If he had one) felt it to be too much to sneak around, "Did you leave (his) house in the middle of the night?"
"Caught in politics and gender-rolls" exactly what it sounds like. karli and josh had to beard considering how close they are to the trumps.. a known homophobic. they had to keep the fantasy of gender-rolls up
"Did you wish you put up more of a fight?" He tried to fight the gender-rolls and politics. To be openly gay. but the fight wasn't fruitful, he got pushed into the ( very glass) closet
"And what's that, that I heard, that your still with her. That's nice, i'm sure that's what's suitable and right" After all those years they're still bearding. they're still wrapped up in gender-rolls and politics
which, of course, could mean nothing but can I ask you a question...?
don't worry guys, it's from a male's perspective

The seven husbands of Taylor Swift- a comparative essay.
so I know that this isn't my usual smut post and i've been kinda MIA but I've been reading The Seven Husbands Of Evelyn Hugo and there's many, many references to Taylor swift and/ or Kaylor so I want to write an essay on it. I am posting it to tumblr to give me a reason to finish it cause I never finish essays. this is just the opening paragraph (or half of it depending on if I add to it or the feed back I get back from my bestie), I've been working on my writing and I'm very proud of this so far. I hope you like it and I am open to feed back if you have any :)
Taylor swift, a woman whose closet is made of glass, and the fictional character Evelyn Hugho from “The Seven Husbands Of Evelyn Hugo” by Taylor Jenkins Reid, a woman who spent half her time loving Celia St. James and the other half hiding how much she loved her both have one thing in common, they fell in love with a woman while dating a man. It started in a closet at an awards show after being told her new friend, Celia St. james, is a lesbian Evelyn decided to confront the red haired woman which leads to a kiss. At some point between 2010-2012 Taylor and Karli met while Swift was dating her then beard Harry Styles, their first public interaction was on twitter on January 17th 2012 with Karli tweeting “hey @(Taylorswift13) love the @(vogue magazine) cover! Your kitchen or mine?”. Many fans often compare Evelyn and Taylor, they being two women who have had a secret relationship with a women (or multiple in Taylor’s case- Hey, dianna).
Lover of Taylor swift❤️❤️
Taylor swift queer flagging part eight:
this will be the last part for a while. just until I find more or she debuts any new outfit!!!
Ok he’s soooooo right. Except this already happened, their names are John Lennon & Paul McCartney, and their doomed situationship is why we have some of the best music ever written 🤣
Don't get sad, get even
So on the weekends
She don't dress for friends
Lately she's been dressing for revenge
I'm not sure if many of you are familiar with Taylor Alison Swift, but let me explain: 1 - she is the greatest troll who ever lived. Highly entertaining and super frustrating. 3 - do you really think she's going to end this tour like it's any other day? She just loves making us all crazy and I'm here for it. Because our ridiculous, brilliant, beautiful, generous queen is not going out without a little glitz and glamour and some surprises for us.
Enjoy the rest of the show!!!
I want to hear the outside x I look in people's windows
On the way home.
This is the first step in their public reunion/rekindling. I am so happy Karlie was (publicly) at the Eras Tour tonight!!! 🥹 I hope it wasn't too rough for Karlie. We love you KK! We love you Taylor!
🌈💖 They are in love Truuuueeee love 💖🌈
👁️💋📼🎶🩷🧡
Thank you Taylor!!! Thank you Karlie 🥰🥰🥰
These LA shows are feeding my soul.
🌙🪐🌼🌞🌈💅😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
OMG OMG OMG!!! I'm just so happy 🥹😭☺️!!! @spade-riddles I hope you had an incredible time!!!
Taylor's intro speech for PAPER RINGS
@spade-riddles 🙈🥳
Went to Pride with the family today! The kiddos loved it and everyone gave them lots of compliments on their outfits ☺️. My 5 year old is obsessed with "the Pride song." It is so cute to hear him sing this and get so excited about love and acceptance of everyone! 🌈🏳️🌈💜 Video from @taylorerastour on tiktok
I'm choosing you, Taylor! Thank you so much @folkaylores for putting this together and sharing. I don't have JackOLantern's way with words. I love and support Taylor and I am so appreciative of everything she has given us over the last two decades.
To me, this song tells a similar story to the one our mysterious JackOLantern Anon was telling. The messy, painfully human story behind the public persona. The raw and vulnerable people-pleasing pain Taylor has experienced by being in the closet as a famous person.
I’m spiraling about this new song, and in awe of her brutal honesty in the lyrics. The first thing I thought of was JackOLantern, and aside from some broader themes overlapping, there are some specific phrases and parallels that I NEED to get off my chest.
@spade-riddles
-
🎃 Message 1: “In a panic, you drag your foot on the ground to stop, stop, stop.“
🌙 You’re Losing me: “Stop, stop, stop. You’re losing me.” (Around 4:20)
-
🎃 Message 2: “But after all this time, you decide you’d like to land softly, rather than crash in a tangle of broken limbs and fiery shock. Dear reader, I’m sure this tale has raised a question…? Why would someone you believe to have wings need a parachute? “
🌙 “I’m getting tired even for a phoenix. Always rising from the ashes, mending all her gashes “
This one has me shook. It’s a direct call and response. Also, “Mending all her gashes” calls back to King Of My Heart “My broken bones are mending.” And in JackOLantern’s message, they reference both fire and broken limbs/bones. PLUS, on the new CD, You’re Losing Me comes right after Dear Reader…I’m processing…
Additionally,
🎃 Message 10: “You place your hand on the doorknob, the metal cold against your fiery skin.”
once again using the word “fiery”, this time to refer to the protagonist’s skin…almost like she’s a…phoenix fresh from the ashes….
-
🎃 Message 3: “You have frozen in this moment of indecision. But your hesitation was a decision all its own.“
🌙 “And the air is thick with loss and indecision. I know my pain is such an imposition.“
🌙 “Lose something, babe, risk something. (You’re losing me) Choose something, babe, I got nothing.“
-
🎃 Message 4: “…there is a human heart that beats red and hot and furious.”
🎃 Message 10: “Your heart beats red and hot and furious in your chest.“
🎃 Message 9: “And most importantly, they will know about the human heart. The flawed, scarred, angry, grateful, nonsensical heart.”
🌙 “I can’t find a pulse, my heart won’t start anymore.“
-
🎃 Message 4: “Sometimes those emotions don’t line up with what is so easily seen. It takes a lifetime to master the art of biting your tongue until it bleeds, all while feeding the world a blinding smile. “
🌙 “I gave you all my best me’s, my endless empathy, and all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier [… ] A pathological people pleaser, who only wanted you to see her.”
I mean….just………wow……
-
🎃 Message 9: “The one that questions everything, but mostly it questions if the world it has grimaced through so many smiles for would love it for what it truly is.”
🌙 “And I wouldn’t marry me either. A pathological people pleaser, who only wanted you to see her.” (I just had to put this lyric again, because I feel like it sums up…everything.)
-
🎃 Message 4: “Think of these messages as smoke signals. “
🎃 Message 10: “You smile at the signal as your feet squash the forest carpet of clovers and daisies.“
🎃 Message 9: “You’re sick of having to dilute everything so far beyond recognition.“
🌙 “I sent you signals and bit my nails down to the quick.“
-
🎃 Message 5: “But you have never been one to lay your armor down. When you fail, you fail gloriously. When you go, you go kicking and screaming.“
🌙 “All I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier. Fighting in only your army, frontlines, don’t you ignore me.“
-
🎃 Message 8: “Lightning crackles in the sky, reflecting your emotions exactly.“
🌙 “Every morning I glared at you with storms in my eyes.”
-
🎃 Message 10: “The best and worst part of it all - the lock lies broken, scorched, down on the ground.”
🌙 “And all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier, fighting in only your army, frontlines, don’t you ignore me.”
The Great War: “Soldier down on that icy ground, looked up at me with honor and truth, broken and blue. So I called off the troops. That was the night I nearly lost you…I really thought I lost you.”
-
🎃 Message 10: “Insecurity and hope pound in your ears in tune with your heart beat. Never in your wildest dreams did you actually believe you would arrive here.”
🌙: This song literally samples her heartbeat as an instrument, just like Wildest Dreams……..I’m speechless. This song….about her deepest insecurities…..
-
🎃 Message 10: “Who doesn’t love a good key change?”
-
🎃 Message 10: “With the deepest exhale of your life so far, you slowly twist the handle.”
🌙: Song literally opens with her exhaling/sighing loudly into the mic.
🌙: “Remember looking at this room, we loved it ‘cause of the light. Now, I just sit in the dark and wonder if it’s time. Do I throw out everything we built or keep it?”
This lyric from You’re Losing me feels so much like she is contemplating leaving the closet. This song in general screams to me that it is about her human experience being closeted, and I believe that the “you” she keeps referring to in the song is her fans/general public who have refused to see her desperate attempts to be understood for who she is throughout the years.
-
🌙 “You say you don’t understand, and I say, ’I know you don't’. We thought a cure would come through in time, now I fear it won’t.”
One of the biggest themes in 🎃’s messages is the concept of time. Running out of time. Time being cut short. To me this line feels like she has waited and waited for a time in her career to come out. To boil the frog slowly enough that everyone would basically know before she ever had to say anything explicitly. Or maybe even for the homophobia and denial in her audience to die out over time. This line feels like her realizing that despite her endless messaging, signaling, and practically begging people to see the real her behind her sparkly persona…people still don’t get it. And because they still don’t get it, she is going to have to come out to ever be free. She will have to face adversity from her own fans, she will have to look their homophobia in the eye. She’s going to have to do it before she is “ready”. Before the world is “ready”.
-
Aside from being a stunning, beautiful song, this is some of her rawest, most vulnerable expression yet. I know the deeper meaning, and queer overtones will go over a lot of people’s heads…preferring to credit a relationship with a man for this song over Taylor’s own deeply personal experiences. But I love you, Taylor. I see you. You won’t lose everything by coming out. As JackOLantern might say, we see you, we see you, we see you.
Speechless. Can't Speak Now.
Okay, just earlier today I did a post like this with the connections between JackOLantern’s messages and You’re Losing Me….but now the Karma music video is out and I AM LOSING MY SHIT. I’m 113% certain there’s things I’m missing, BUT OH WELL.
-
🎃 Message 3: “Somersaulting past ancient artifacts, stopping only to admire a statue or two. ”
(Note: this scene transitions by Taylor leaning over and the camera spinning in a circle to begin the next scene…kind of a somersault.)
(also, wasn’t there just recently a big, long post about the justice tarot card relating to flag anon and that infamous betty/lavender haze mad men episode?)
-
🎃 Message 8: “You have always craved destruction. Scrawled devil horns on photos of yourself. This is different.”
🎃 Message 3 “Dressed in your wife’s black leather and the mask of an illusionist”
(Note: @9w1ft has a great post on how similar Taylor’s outfit here is to Karlie’s met gala look….👀) (2nd Note: This message from 🎃 ends with the main character striking a match…this scene from the music video is very….flame-y.)
One more thought on this one…
🎃 Message 11: “Sheep have removed their wolf’s clothing with relief. Masqueraders with masks removed…”
(This line always stuck out to me in JackOLantern’s last big message. Usually the phrase is reversed “A wolf in sheep’s clothing.” Which suggest a predator pretending to be prey for a chance to attack. “Sheep in wolf’s clothing” would mean prey pretending to be a predator…perhaps to avoid being attacked by the other wolves? Did pumpkin anon just put into words what being closeted feels like PERFECTLY? Holding that line from their message up to this scene, where taylor is behind the mask of a devil….and then smiles and waves once she takes it off…..i’m thinking sooo many thoughts about this.)
-
this one has LAYERSSS so bear with me!
in this scene, not only does it have a flourishing garden with patches of daisies…it also has a castle on the hill that she has wandered far away from, happy-go-lucky childlike body language, AND wizard of oz imagery….
🎃 Message 4: “The story of the person behind the curtain.”
(HELLO WIZARD OF OZ?!?!?!)
🎃 Message 7: “You are walking through your yard. It’s one of your favorite places, all sprawling garden rows and vibrant green grass […] There are daisies - so many daisies - in every shade of your rainbow.”
(Note: These daisies in the video are pink + gold…..literally lesbian flag colors. All the flowers in this scene are……)
🎃 Message 7: “…and set your foot on each stepping stone of the path that leads right to them. The house is a little farther now…”
(Note: The castle can be seen in this scene way in the background, up on a hill. ALSO, she is following a brick road….aka a stone path….I MEAN)
*BONUS! 🎃 Message 2: “You are on the balcony of an ice castle.”
🎃 Message 7: “…but you are still within the confines of your tall and impenetrable fence. Nothing comes through that fence. Not now and not ever. Within it you are safe.”
(This feels the way the fence is described in JackOLantern’s story…with all good, safe, unbothered things on one side, and unknown depths of darkness on the other….also the 3 grim reapers are an…interesting choice….)
🎃 Message 7: “Caught up in a moment of buoyant childlike whimsy, you make a wish and blow, blow, blow. Hundreds of featherly florets scatter. You laugh. You watch as they ride the breeze…”
(I MEAN COME ON!!! She is skipping around with a very childlike, lighthearted body language, and then she freaking blows purple glitter over TOWARDS HER ENEMIES……..!!!)
also worth noting that there is a little rabbit hidden in the garden…weren’t there some epic alice in wonderland connections made to JackOLantern recently? 🤔
-
🎃 Message 10: “You wander through the woods. Deep in this Enchanted Forest […] You squint to make sense of your surroundings through the fog…”
(This one isn’t exact…but to have clouds/fog descending onto a thick wilderness/mountain/forest scene……..it’s all just really delicate, you know?)
-
Note: the entire boat/pirate/nautical message + Ice Spice has a lyric that mentions waving white flags - which brings to mind pirates and surrender for me personally. (which is….exactly what that message was about. the main character surrendering herself to the bad guys.)
-
🎃 message 9: “And now it is just a matter of time. The dripping of candle wax. The ticking of a clock.”
(Note…including their final goodbye message, we received 12 messages from JackOLantern….like the hours on a clock…)
-
