🚨 Repost! Reblog! Retweet!!!! 🚨

Oh my god, how have I never seen this full video angle before?? 😭

Genuine question but I've never understood why people think Cornelia Street is for Karlie? Like in the first parts of the song, she casually tells the persons she's staying on CS, and they're a fresh page, filling in the page as they go. If we go by the Kaylor timeline, they'd be dating for 2+ years by then so there's no fresh pages and I'm sure Karlie knew she was looking at the CS place before she decided. Like the lover on Cornelia Street has to be new or the events had to happen at Tribeca.

A fresh page is a new beginning. I think they moved in with each other on Cornelia Street. They hadn't lived with each other before then. A fresh page is a new page in a book that already exists.

Taylor was just staying on Cornelia Street while her place in Tribeca was being renovated. Seems like the renovations were for them to live together and they started living together on Cornelia Street.

I don't believe the lover on Cornelia Street is new at all. If you're going off Toe timeline would you move in with some after dating a few months? I wouldn't.

I think they changed the way they dealt with their relationship. She's talking about hunkering down. When she was out of the public eye. There are parallels in Call it What you Want and Cornelia Street.

Karlie was seen outside of Cornelia Street too. Why do you think Taylor hasn't had a secret session in her NYC apartment since 1989? Have to clear it top to bottom of Karlie. :)

Let’s just talk about this birthday picture from Karlie to Taylor for a second. Regardless of the caption, look at this damn photo.

Taylor’s fingers are LITERALLY on Karlie’s neck. Now, usually, to tell if I’m reaching or if the situation is actually, in fact, gay, I put myself in the situation. So I ask myself, would I place my hand in that position if I were taking this exact same photo with my best friend? The answer is NO. My best friend would be like, “why the fuck are your fingertips half way up my neck???? Don’t touch my neck!” The neck is incredibly sensitive and I think it’s odd that best friends would take a photo like this. Now, let’s just pretend for a moment that we know for a FACT that Karlie and Taylor are not together and never have been. Looking back at their selfies in the past, they’re all really gay regardless lmao. I would never essentially spoon my best friend and wrap my arms around her from behind leaving ZERO space between us while she puts her hand over mine.

Nor would I do the same pose and kiss my best friends cheek while I stand behind her pressing my entire body against hers.

And you know what else I wouldn’t do with my straight platonic friend? Rest my hands on her ass after we just held hands and modeled lingerie together, then like a bunch of posts on tumblr talking about how gay it was.

Some people say that they’re not an item, but even if you don’t believe in their romantic relationship, you have to admit that they have done some pretty questionable gay shit together like writing in the sand that they love each other…

and grinding on each other

and even holding hands

or having a romantic skype date and sending flowers to one another from across the world.

Lastly, you know what else I wouldn’t do for my straight platonic friend? Get matching rings and feel the need to SNEAK into her New York apartment during NYFW.

I’m not sure if they’re together because I’m not them nor do I know them personally, but if we’re being real, they act like more than best friends. Kudos to them for being the biggest celebrity trolls if they have never been romantically involved cause they sure have hinted otherwise. Even their past gay track record isn’t the cleanest or straightest I’ve ever seen.

The End of the Video

Something I haven’t seen mentioned yet is the implications of how after Taylor climbs into the lavender haze cloud at the end of the video, the cloud *poofs* and mid disappearance, the video cuts to black.

Is the public persona Taylor disappearing/being killed off?

Others have already pointed out that this Taylor is in the same outfit (lesbian flag knit top) as one of the Taylors in Anti-Hero, and appears to possibly represent the public persona Taylor (a theory that is reinforced by this Taylor performing pda for the cameras and the crowd in party scene of this mv).

After the party scene, when the house is empty, the same Taylor starts deconstructing the space, revealing it to be some kind of set. First she rips open the shades over the window, then she starts pushing the walls down.

As the walls fall, she sits in the center of a lavender cloud, with koi fish swimming through the surrounding cosmos.

Then she pulls the cloud over her head like a down comforter, and the cloud begins to dissipate, quickly, before the video cuts to black and ends.

With the cloud, this version of Taylor disappears as well. Which is already interesting. Then you consider that what she leaves behind is midnight blue sky full of koi fish (which supposedly represent being proudly out in Japan)….

It’s a bold interpretation, but it’s also a bold sequence, a bold video, after two other bold videos, and 20 very bold songs.

I believe pretty strongly that she will stay in the glass closet until she can tell her whole truth, and has a strong chance of making a considerable difference in the industry as a result, so I’m not saying I think this means she’s going to come out tomorrow, but i do think it means something. Maybe it’s just to send a message to those who haven’t gotten it yet? Maybe it means she’ll stay in the glass closet but drop the beard soon? Who knows, I just love how loud it is.

gonna need therapy after this

Mariska reminiscing ☺️

I will never shut up about this I love her deeply I swear

She did the heart over the left eye again on Sunday 👁️

I know we’ve talked about the locket in this city of lover art before, but have we talked about the dice that say 3/6?

I’m sure someone must have already pointed this out?? But I missed it until just now.

#louder

i don’t wanna keep this conversation going cause everybody has their own opinion, but last thing i’m gonna say. sorry, SR if this going back and forth.

from taylor’s songwriting we can tell that karlie wouldn’t have just “found another woman”. they are madly in love anon. they just clicked right away and had an unmatched attraction, you don’t just give that up like that. have you listened to The Great War, karlie had many opportunities to leave, but she chose not to cause she LOVES taylor.

also if you look in taylor’s discography as i said, hits different, question, dancing with our hands tied, etc etc that’s a person who is at ease with themselves when it comes to that specific thing. “you said there was nothing in the world that could stop it/ i had a bad feeling”

regarding the fake marriage, i get jerk is a criminal but i don’t get why would karlie at this point leave jerk and have another beard.. because maybe jerk was for her more of a secure, long term beard.

you see, not all celebrities love a long term beard, they just love to change and keep the wheel going. taylor was like this, but that was because she wasn’t in a stable relationship, she needed a long term beard to fit the love songs she would write about her hidden relationship so that people won’t try to know the truth. plus she wanted to bury her older “serial dater” reputation. and she successfully did.

so maybe karlie just felt this is suitable for the long run for her and taylor.

saying “why would karlie do that” makes me feel like you haven’t listened to taylor’s last four albums! 😅

also don’t forget how loud taylor was during lover then after the masters situation happened, she crawled into a hole again. do you think karlie has anything to do with that delay? it was all about taylor, not karlie.

also do you think karlie likes to be called a traitor, piece of shit, a crook who was caught etc etc? like what makes a human being want their reputation to be ruined except that they are in love and they have no other choice.

karlie had to burn herself to some degree to protect taylor.

taylor is a BIG entity. she is a brand and a company. i know she makes it look simple and fun, yet she is A WHOLE brand, anon.

karlie also is, but come on, is she on that level? ofc not.

also to the “brought jerk to the 1975” do you realize that they do that to make it look “less” questionable. taylor would have calvin around in so many places when karlie would be there.

plus beards hang out cause they are tied to a contract, anon. she can’t just ignore him. we wish, but karlie was signed to jerk before taylor.

also, i’m sure she had a “renew” moment and she did it cause there was no way they’re coming out and they just wanted to keep the image stable. it also makes karlie worlds away from taylor cause she isn’t bearding with an actor or musician. there would be very little chance that they could be in the same room.

also if taylor and karlie had plans of having a kid and it would be karlie who would get pregnant, she needs to be in a long term relationship to convincingly take that step with a beard. she won’t just do it with an artist she met 5 months before.

i’m pretty sure the jerk situation felt like the worst best choice for them to take so many step behind the scenes.

it’s fucked up, but it’s why they had.

all in all, i’m sure karlie has her fears, but i’m 1000% convinced she is more at ease with herself and would just take the leap, you know why?

cause she went with the fake feud plan and wasn’t scared it would make her lose support. i think she can face it.

ALSO “i should not be left to my own devices, they come with prices and vices, i end up in crisis/ i wake up screaming from dreaming, one day i’ll watch as you’re leaving/cause you got tired of my scheming, for the last time”

“you would break your back to make me break a smile”

“listen.. i hope i never lose you hope it never ends (..) baby i’m so terrified of if you ever walk away”

“i’m a mess, but i’m the mess that you wanted”

“what’s a life time of achievement if i pushed you to the edge but you were to polite to leave me and do you miss the rouge who coaxed you into paradise and left you there?”

“i cut off my nose just to spite my face and i hate my reflection for years and years”

i can go on and on, but those are some of taylor’s lyrics that scream “sorry i put you in that situation” and you know what? it’s okay if taylor isn’t ready, it’s fucking frightening, i understand. also karlie loves her and wants to support, so good for her.
