A literal timeline. Built from receipts from many Kaylor blogs.
You can see the innocence and hurt of first love with Emily the first two albums (after debut cuz it doesn’t count lol) and a tiny bit of Red…then the toxicity of dianna(like wow that was a fucked up relationship lol) and then (on/off)again into 1989 a bit, then how taylor dealt with Getaway Car(speculates to be written long ago, about Dianna and “him” being her publicist at the time and breaking the heterosexual narrative that Dianna accidentally took her seriously on, since she proposed and Taylor declined out of fear) and then blaming Diana’s commitment issues and taylor’s PR public mess of how she’s viewed in the world (blank space and OOTW with Harry who was apparently a depressing mutual bearding contract cut short out of guilt)…to her meeting Karlie with Gorgeous and the rest of 1989 to their story written accordingly thereafter month by month, meaning a lot of Lover was written before Rep but the timelines do intermingle.
So many receipts and empathy and relatedness now all so much clearer and homegirl is STRONG. and human. And super clever lol
Highly recommend this! Thanks for the submission!
