Taylor has literally been like:

maybe reputation’s themes of love in secret and secret moments no one knows about and stolen stares and pining for someone gorgeous will convince them. no?

okay maybe lover’s crystal skies, rainbows eeeverywhere, gay pride parades, gaylor park, marrying your childhood friend, and stepping into daylight motifs would work. no? that didn’t do it?

fine. here’s an album about childhood love, about loving a girl with braids who has to hide in closets and a girl named betty who I just want to kiss in the garden in front of her stupid friends. how about now? do you get it yet?

♠️ The turn of the decade befalls the facade. - 11/09/2019

Forgive me if this has already been discussed but... have we considered that the “facade” could be Jerklie’s relationship?

Rumors started (deliberately) swirling in the press in November 2012 that KK and JK were dating.

Us Weekly 11/8/12:

Daily Mail 11/27/12:

Four years later, KK implied she met JK in June 2012. So we are supposed to gather their “relationship” started sometime between June and November 2012.

Was Spade trying to tell us Jerklie’s contract ends in 2022? And that’s why Taylor dropped some random references to ‘22’? (There is some debate about how long a decade actually is but at least one definition fits with this timeline).

There’s this from an Entertainment Weekly video in the Lover era (5/9/19). Right before she does this she is talking about the palm trees she posted on IG when she finished Lover. She says “A palm try symbolizes rebirth, new beginnings, positive energy. So...” *precedes to sort of randomly/awkwardly throw two “peace” signs up before the video cuts to the next topic.

Taylor later referenced ‘22’ with freaking lavender icing in her hair (4/27/20).

Now I bet there have been a million pivots behind the scenes so even if this was what Spade was trying to convey, it may not mean anything now. And the implications of KK potentially signing on two a two year contract ending in the midst of a potential second Trump term are complicated.

All I really know is that Taylor will be releasing her version of Red on 11/19/21. And she made sure to remind us the album resembles a heartbroken person before referencing a friend who calls in the middle of the night to talk about their ex..

I don't think that Karlie proposed to Taylor and that Taylor said no to her either, but the rumor that Karlie did propose to Taylor and Taylor saying no to her has been floating around for several years and this rumor eventually evolved into an explanation as to why Karlie "married" Josh, people who believe in that rumor think that Karlie was so upset about her proposal being rejected that she distanced herself from her and Taylor's mutual friend group and said yes to Josh when he offered her a lavender marriage because she didn't have any reason to say no to him and that she was too distanced from her friends for them to convince her that a lavender marriage with him would be a bad idea, and that she just stopped being her sunshiney self because she was so miserable that Taylor said no to her.

But yeah... It turns out that a lot of people think that the piano to champagne problems sounds like the piano to New Year's Day and a lot of people also think that champagne problems is the follow-up song to Dancing With Our Hands Tied because of the lyrics, so if Taylor casually said "Oh, champagne problems is about Karlie" then even Swifties at this point would probably be really sympathetic towards her and Karlie, and the line about a sister in champagne problems even made a few people who aren't Kaylors be like, "Did Taylor mean Kimby with that line?" and "Did Taylor mean the dorm's at NYU where Karlie went?"

champagne problems is super distressing to a lot of people and the line about the college dorm room's and the sister are making people think the song isn't fictional and is instead about Karlie because she's the only person in Taylor's life that fits the "Went to college, has a sister" bill that they can think of 😬

The Swifties won’t get it because then that would imply Karlies relationship with jerk is fake. She met Taylor after she was already bearding “dating” Jerk. I don’t think it’s distressing to a lot of people. All Taylor has to do is say it’s James storyline in 3 triangle and people will be like oh that’s not about her life. 🙄That whole storyline doesn’t sound like Karlie to me it sounds like a fan fiction. Folklore.

if we take lover album and some songs there as a marriage confirmation, the baby next summer makes so much sense. and how tay tried to get it in our brains with having many child/family themes on folklore/evermore. nothing was a secret it was just well hidden.

i just want to say something v quick. I remember believing in toe so much. i was so happy for taylor and i hated kaylor like SO MUCH. i never gave it a thought. never. then i found ttb’s blog after the reputation tour started. i was like “ok this is just for entertainment” i found the master-posts then i was like “hold on.. this might be something” the first song that made me think was King Of My Heart it just didn’t make sense to me. I didn’t get the timeline.

before toe i already knew that most of taylor’s relationships were PR but i was so scared i was going to get blacklisted by taylor cause she was always here, and people on tumblr too if i said something. haylor made me cringe 😬. i was scared taylor would see what i’m posting and hate me. and then i understood that MOST people didn’t say a word because they were scared of getting blacklisted too.

people all of a sudden hated karlie or like just ignored her presence like she was never there and i did too for sometimes when i was confused, also because i didn’t want people to see her face on my blog i was scared of being called a kaylor etc. what helped me later was the making of the songs when i gave this a thought i KNEW toe was never real. i did the math by myself and it all just didn’t add up. it wasn’t anyone. it wasn’t people making me believe in something i SAW the signs and i knew what taylor was sending messages for the ones who’ll find them.

taylor showed me toe was fake no one else did. then my WHOLE look at her music changed drastically. the first time i listened to Love Story after that i was like “oh my god.....” it was THERE all along i just never noticed. i never thought too hard about it.

by the time taylor dropped Lover I didn’t even have to try to understand, everything was just clear to me. I didn’t give a fuck anymore about being blacklisted or sucking up to swifties a*ses just to seem like I’m unproblematic.

it was not about being a kaylor or not. anymore. it was just about knowing that this is a whole other story inside the story she wants to show the public and that’s when i knew the brilliance of taylor swift.

she sells two stories in one. the oblivious one for the lazy heads who wants to believe the story she wants to sell. and the other story for daydreams and romantics who are like her. who see hidden messages and secrets in every line. people who want to put pieces together and find the real pictures. that’s why she uses easter eggs.

i don’t see why a straight woman dating a white man would put easter eggs in songs for her fans. what are we going to find there, Karen? the size of your man’s underwear? why is the world determined to divide a multimillionaire white woman dating a white man?

This is beautifully written! So spot on. I hope Taylor and Tree see this!!!

Hets saying Folklore is bout random stories she made up is just sad. It's HER story. HER folklore. All the real events that took place and the myths being heard around regarding her relationships with girls since she was a teen. Playing & being played at school,gay summer flings, the love she will always have for Emily, how Dianna could have been the 1 but isn't and has no regrets anymore,the hell and back Kaylor went through but still going strong. Karlie's honor! Listen to Peace!! Kaylor rise!
