Taylor Swift music videos + water

Since its beginnings, cinema has recognised that water can visually give matter and meaning to human desires, dreams and secrets, eliciting suspense and fear. Using different aesthetical and technical strategies, contemporary cinema shows immersed and drowning bodies to represent and express intimacy and protection, suspense and fear, obsession and depression, state of shock, past or infancy trauma, hallucinations and nightmares, etc. — Adriano D’Aloia (Film in Depth. Water and Immersivity in the Contemporary Film Experience, 2012)

Water has been indispensable for humanity throughout its history and indeed the origin of life on Earth. Therefore it is unsurprising that water has important and varied symbolic meanings. Water represents creation and destruction, life and death, birth and rebirth, chaos and order, and pollution and purification. — Mi-yeon Eom (Water: A Symbol of Potential, 2014)

Folklore (2020). Taylor Swift Stars drawn around scars. A cardigan that still bears the scent of loss 20 years later. Battleships sinking into the ocean, down, down, down. The tree swing in the woods of my childhood. Hushed tones of “let’s run away” and never doing it. The sun drenched month of August, sipped away like a bottle of wine. A mirrored disco ball hovering above a dance floor. A whiskey bottle beckoning. Hands held through plastic. A single thread that, for better or for worse, ties you to fate.

I just saw someone on Twitter say "the 1" and "cardigan" make them happy.. Am I folkloring wrong?

[bennetand9-deactivated20230609]

@1990swift there is no wrong way to folklore. That’s the beauty of folklore. We find our own meanings in the stories.

[1990swift]

It really is beautiful how songs can be interpreted differently from person to person. Not all writers can accomplish this. Taylor is truly gifted and folklore is the epitome of her talent as a writer.

folklore by taylor swift (released july 24, 2020)

A tale that becomes folklore is one that is passed down and whispered around. Sometimes even sung about. The lines between fantasy and reality blur and the boundaries between truth and fiction become almost indiscernible. Speculation, over time, becomes fact. Myths, ghost stories, and fables. Fairytales and parables. Gossip and legend. Someone’s secrets written in the sky for all to behold.

What I love the most about folklore is that it is the most raw album Taylor has released, and despite years of dealing with "she's not real country", "she only cares about number ones" and "her music is immature", she finally said "fuck it" and put this masterpiece into the world and in doing so has once again proven that it is HER raw talent that makes her successful and SHE is the reason her music resonates with so many people. She has nothing left to prove to anyone. She is breaking records spilling her guts. And I am here for every lyric of it.

taylorswift we need a recipe for these please! 🍪🍪🍪

[taylorswift]

MMMKAY— there are two ways you can go about this. The quick and easy way is to make sugar cookies from a sugar cookie mix and just cut open a packet of chai tea and pour it into the batter as you make it. Cause you’re busy and you want making cookies to be a chill part of your day. Pow. Done.

OR

If you want to make the cookies from scratch (that’s what I did for the 1989 Secret Sessions), you can use this recipe I found on a baking blog I like, joythebaker.com and I believe it was originally from a book called The Pastry Queen. If you want another great baking blog, I get a lot of great ideas from smittenkitchen.com too. This is a recipe for basic insanely good sugar cookies. I added the chai element to the recipe because I thought it would infuse cozy holiday vibez into the cookie and it really did. So I’ll star the part that I added in the recipe.

http://joythebaker.com/2009/06/giant-vanilla-sugar-cookies/

***after you add the egg and vanilla, cut one chai tea packet open and empty the crushed up tea leaves into the batter CAUSE CHAI COOKIES ARE ABOUT TO HAPPEN UP IN HERE***

I made an icing for the cookies, but they’re fine on their own. If you want to make icing for them, just mix 1 cup powdered sugar with 1/4 T-spoon of nutmeg, 1/4 T-spoon of cinnamon and 3 TAYblespoons <—-(I’m so annoying, it astounds me sometimes) of milk or eggnog if you can find it this time of year. The more milk/eggnog you add, the more your icing will become a glaze. But glazes are legit too so basically just LIVE YOUR LIFE.

I lightly sprinkled cinnamon over the icing once the cookies were baked and iced, but there are so many icing options you can pair with these cookies—I mean it’s out of control. If you’re really feeling like living on the edge, you can go ahead and add a few drops of food coloring to the icing to make it festive. No one is going to stop you.

Why?

Cause the bakers gonna bake bake bake bake bake.

Bye.

I have so much respect for her right now.

Ahem-

Fuck everyone trying to tear Taylor down for the conversation about politics in the documentary. It had nothing to do with publicity, she was compelled by the same passion for equality that burns within all of us who are fed up with oppressive policy being brushed off as 'just mah 'christian' beliefs". She is not ignorant to her privilege as a white female nor the fact that her platform allows her voice to echo across the nation. Thus, she felt an obligation to use it, and it had such an important impact. She decided she is no longer going to "shut up and look pretty". She defied her label and she spoke up. She was not asking for an award or any recognition, she was simply doing what she knew was right. This is the kind of growth and development that should be celebrated and encouraged (and probably would be if it was anyone else), yet here so many of you are once again throwing bricks.-which, sadly, I'm sure she had anticipated. I refuse to let the hypocrites and assholes try to make her feel like she has no business speaking her mind. Those days are over. The bottom line is Taylor Swift will no longer become what the media portrays her as. Taylor Swift will not fit your mold of Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift will be the woman Taylor Swift wants to be. Taylor Swift will not feel hesitant to express her views regardless of public backlash or scrutiny. Taylor Swift will not feel insecure for growing up. Taylor Swift will have strength. Taylor Swift will feel valid. Taylor Swift is not going anywhere unless Taylor Swift wants to. Taylor Swift will speak up. Taylor Swift will speak now. And Taylor Swift will always have our full support. Remember that. 💕

[1990swift]

Still not over the masterpiece that is Beautiful Ghosts & how it literally saved a whole movie. I'm so happy for and proud of Taylor. This era has been so beautiful. I cannot wait to see her this year! 😭

[1990swift]

Miss Americana And The Heartbreak Prince Remix (Ft. Flanders) confirmed.

[1990swift]

We'll ALWAYS love Taylor more than you can't stand her. Aaaand that's never gonna change... But you can keep throwing bricks with your fragile ego; we could use a bigger castle.

rain came pouring down

She went from this:

To this:

[1990swift]

I imagined her growing large enough to hold the giant gramophone in the first two pictures in her arms like a more quirky but elegant statue of liberty, and now I can't unsee it.

[gavemeroses]

I’d be the man.
