I've been on HRT for a week now! Already noticing softer skin, changes to my face, but most of all? Mental health so good I'm actually looking forward to sleeping, because tomorrow is another day on magic gender medicine!
Crazy that Norwegian healthcare would've had me wait two more years for this.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: I HAVE FINALLY STARTED HRT!!!!
i think today, more so than any other day, i can say is the first day of the rest of my life
it's so surreal having this day finally happen, after having waited for over two years?
its like i've been drowning for that time, and i can finally breathe

the production on midnight rain might be my favourite on the album? idk if the synth is reversed or what it is, but the actual sound is so SO satisfying to listen to, it sounds like being underwater

Also- "Her name was Kitty" makes "Karma is a cat, purring in my lap 'cus she loves me" 10x more gay and it's not even close, idc.

btw I still haven't moved on from "Wow, she came out. I said, you're living my dream"
Let's be completely real- "Argumentative, antithetical dream girl" was really fucking gay and super loud, but it's a drop in the ocean compared to this, and it's not even close.

HOLD UP
Does "It's bout to be the sleepless night you've been dreaming of" refer to Hits Different?
Walk with me for a sec- It's not on the album bc it's not from a sleepless night in the past. It's the "til dawn"/wishful *future* sleepless night when she finally walks through the Karma door.

Has anybody pieced together the "It's 'bout to be the sleepless night you've been dreaming of" part of The Fate of Ophelia and these?
I'm currently trying to cook up a surface-level analysis of the themes in TLOAS, and although this is a little too specific for me, I still found it interesting!

the final pre-chorus on "wood" has the best instrumentation/music i've heard on a taylor album, maybe ever? (1:30-1:49)
the chord progression, the drums, and THE BASS LICK on 1:42 sounds so good, it's honestly fucked that taylor didn't take me out for dinner before that part made love to my ears

and btw "wish list" doing a glitch cosplay for one bar is funny to me for some reason
start of the chorus is so distracting on first listen, because "i just want you, MHH" literally sounds like "i think there's been a glitch, MHH"
surely it can't be on purpose and mean something, can it?

(RE: promo of Taylor directing herself) Seeing discourse on r/popculturechat is interesting, because the terminology and theories our community has developed to understand Taylor's art just looks like weird contradictions outside our bubble.
It feels VERY "Dear Reader was for general audiences" imo

What if "Cancelled!" is when the *real* Taylor effectively ends the entire show that TaylorTM has been starring in?
Like, the album being "The *LIFE* of a Showgirl". The album is the story of TaylorTM's life as a showgirl, and how the *real* Taylor is now ending that chapter???
Concept album pls?

LET'S FUCKING GO!!!! 2-3 weeks OR SOONER before I can OFFICIALLY START HRT 🎉
shoutout to imago, this process has taken only ~2 months or so including admin stuff like blood tests. Doing the same through Norway's public healthcare would've taken another ~2 years (!)
next up: cookies for celebrating

The way it’s all worded so carefully …. Never picking one side.
The complete silence from Rob.
The tie-in to Judy garland
The invitation to go down the rabbit hole
Basically laying out how gaylor starts at debut
It’s all SOOO intentional
(I think we are being soft launched)

okay what if the TLOAS movie ISN'T anything new. it's just a 2-hour long scroll through gaylor tumblr, twitter, reddit, and bluesky. the soundtrack is just cassandra on repeat, interrupted by "i don't dress for men" part of vigilante shit ft taylor fongering the air during eras

just to make sure: anticipating a documentary after ttpd/eras has *definitely* been a gaylor thing. has there been any broader discourse in the general swiftie fandom about it?
