It makes me so giddy and happy for Taylor for how different her outlook is about her future children like the evolution from anti-hero -> wish list is one of the most interesting themes in her music to me

ME TOO!

[cages-boxes-hunters-foxes]

Both of these things (her providing wisdom as somewhat of an authority at this point, and seeing herself as an Artist) are things that I’ve noticed (as a fan who has watched and listened to how she talks about herself and her craft for the last almost-twenty years) have evolved!! It’s so cool to see her step into both of these roles because it’s not how she always was at allll

it IS cool! and i think it has shifted really profoundly in the last...18 months or so in particular, which aligns with her feeling like eras tour front to back was kind of an "i made it" moment. last time we had a shift this profound in how she talks about herself and her art was around the first masters sale.

The amount of fortune tellers on the ground because she tried to make it perfect and the rock still didn’t care

striving for perfection obsessive exercise drinking singing trying to play outside none of it worked!

[cages-boxes-hunters-foxes]

Idk maybe I’m projecting because I’ve been through something similar, but it seems like she opened up about the things she was struggling with, and then he weaponized that vulnerability when it was convenient. “Well we both know you’re anxious about being in public. We both know you tend to castrophize. We both know you’re insecure and paranoid.” And eventually he didn’t even have to do it. She did it to herself, and he let her wither away.

i’m growling

(and yes, i think this is exactly what happened. because he was helpful and supportive until he wasn’t)

[cages-boxes-hunters-foxes]

I think the banality of it all is also what made her pour it out through the vessel of the Other Muse on TTPD. Sure, what they did was the same in essence, but the audacity, the nerve, the scandalous nature of the way MH went about it let her explore the way she felt about all the ways she was mistreated in the relationship with Joe, without being swallowed by the bleakness and the devastating mundanity. It’s easier to scream at a conman than at a rock.

without question imo

[cages-boxes-hunters-foxes]

He liked her when she was forced to be put in a bubble to preserve her mental. she wanted to pop it years later and he didn't like that

end of the lavender haze video is the entire thing

[cages-boxes-hunters-foxes]

still thinking about one of the first joever quotes we got about how they existed in their own world/a bubble and how that was just Not A Good Thing on any level and how that bubble very much became only what worked for him and not for them

we were all like “huh?” but that was the gospel truth

[bettyrightnow]

it’s endlessly fascinating to me how intertwined taylor’s work and life have been for the past couple years. like i think going back to her old stuff for the re-recordings (and especially red) really put things into perspective for her in terms of her relationship and then she just.. kept doing that with midnights. visiting the past and saying ok how did i get here? what could i do differently than before to get a different result? and then when celebrating all of that work with the eras tour, everything changed and her life really completely blew up. and now because of that tour she found something so special and healing. just!!!! i looked around in a blood soaked gown and i saw something they can’t take away!!!

[mustlikeme4me]

I can’t get over the park scene from the swing where she’s doing all the work to keep momentum going, the rock falling down, her having to stop and pick it up, the mom playing with the 2 boys playing happily behind them. And that image being so evocative of the mine music video…she’s even playing soccer with them just like the husband in mine. Really what she’s yearned for years that felt so unattainable to her. all while having to do all that work for a fucking rock. Soo much going on in a few seconds. Devastatingly beautiful. My hate for that man grows stronger each rewatch

Yes thanks for highlighting the other important part which is how the was the one who kept the momentum going

[mustlikeme4me]

I just really don't think he was pro her healing and moving on from what hurt her before they met. it reminds me of Peter and the story of Peter and Wendy in a way. How Wendy realises she has to leave Neverland and move on from this and wants Peter to move on with her and he just.. doesn't want to, so she has to leave him behind cause hes pulling her down somewhere she doesn't wanna stay forever

Spot on! My head has so many renewed thoughts on the Peter Pan metaphors she’s used since folklore.

when that sky rains fire on you and you're persona non grata, I'll tell you how I've been there too and that none of it matters 🤝 this is just a temporary speed bump but failure brings you freedom and I can bring you love
