ok THREAD because it's lesbian visibility day and the BIG PINK SUPERMOON is making me insane. sorry 2 my friends who are straight and/or cool. anyway taylor swift is 100% gay and two years ago today she came as close as she maybe will ever get to coming out 1/? https://twitter.com/abuildingonfire/status/1386833762290372611
so the first thing you have to know if you are one of he 99% of my followers who don't give a shit about taylor swift is that she is CONSTANTLY teasing album titles/release dates/who songs are (allegedly) about/etc. liner notes, music videos, social media posts, etc. etc.
the second thing you have to know is that ppl have been speculating about her sexuality for years. so many songs about secret love affairs. karlie kloss. the endless steam of men she dates for 2 months then writes very pointed songs about? the lady doth protest 2 much, methinks
anyway you can google this, i do not have time to write the dissertation that this topic deserves but if you've ever thought that it was suspicious that she dated joe jonas/taylor lautner/harry styles/etc., there is a reason
anyway. the year is 2019. it's been two years since reputation, her gayest album thus far, home to songs with NO heterosexual explanation like dress, don't blame me, delicate, gorgeous, dancing with our hands tied, etc. the new era of taylor swift is dawning..............
https://twitter.com/taylornation13/status/1080191367207440387 january 1st, the taylor nation account tweets 115 rainbows. you know what's the 115th day of the year? april 26th. you know what day that is? LESBIAN VISIBILITY DAY. let's put a pin in this for later
in February, taylor starts posting pics hinting at a new album with a new aesthetic. that aesthetic? butterflies and rainbows. interesting!!
now, i know what you're thinking. taylor swift is the queen of girly shit! she loves glitter and pink! and boys! this is just a return to form after the adorably edgy aesthetic of the reputation era! the 4.26? the bike? the rainbows? the suits & short nails? just a coincidence!
sure. fine ok. but explain this. https://twitter.com/pushyfemme/status/1119967289430937608
TWO. CHICKS. PEOPLE. anyway, she keeps doing all this stuff leading up to 4.26, which, may i remind you, is LESBIAN VISIBILITY DAY! https://twitter.com/eleanorbate/status/1118410011787628544
ok. so imagine you're me. it's april 24. i have told every single person who will listen to me that taylor swift is about to come out of the closet. everyone is like, no, shut up, she's like the straightest person ever, but then. how do you explain this: https://twitter.com/jillboard/status/1121172592813957120
4/25 this mf unveils this mural that looks EXACTLY like these wings that karlie wore at a vs show taylor performed at. the rainbows. the "ME!". please,,,

finally. the big day rolls around. and we get......................................................................................................................................................................................... this
when this drops, i am DEVASTATED. first of all, it's not the big ol IM GAY that i was promising everyone who so much as looked at me was coming. second, it's the classic taylor move of picking the most corny, commercial song ever as her lead single. also, brendon urie is there.
but the more that i thought about it, i realized she was doing the OTHER classic taylor move of having her lead single say way more about the album era's aesthetic/pr narrative than how the music actually sounds. not to mention the classic move of being CRAFTY AS HELL
hear me out. this is a gay song. i know it's a duet with a guy and ostensibly a love song, but it is a gay. song.
1. brendon urie = confirmed bicon.
2. the video starts with them fighting (in french??? prety fruity imo) in front of taylor's two cats (did i mention she's obsessed with cats????) before she campily slams the door and walks away. big lavender marriage vibes

the songs starts. first verse. this sounds straight tho, right?
WRONG.
"you're the kind of guy the ladies want" does she say she wants him tho? nope! she does say, however, twice, that there's a lot of cool chicks out there! hmm!!
WRONG.

then. THEN. the prechorus. she walks out looking like this (classic ill'fitting baby gay menswear!), singing:
ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHERS
LIKE A RAINBOW WITH ALL OF THE COLORS
BABYDOLL (!) WHEN IT COMES TO A LOVER
I PROMISE THAT YOU'LL NEVER FIND ANOTHER LIKE ME
ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHERS
LIKE A RAINBOW WITH ALL OF THE COLORS
BABYDOLL (!) WHEN IT COMES TO A LOVER
I PROMISE THAT YOU'LL NEVER FIND ANOTHER LIKE ME
do i even need to say anything????????????????????????????????????????????????????
what straight woman calls a man "babydoll"?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????/
ok i know i know. but i'm not done.
did you look closely at this gif? did you? DID YOU NOTICE THE HUGE FUCKING RAINBOW? yeah me too. also, all the women in bisexual flag color power suits. ok i cant look at this gif anymore. she looks so dumb. i love her. moving on.
the next verse is pretty boring other than "there's a lot of lame guys out there." brendon is one of them.
if you're still on the fence, sit tight, because this next one's a doozy.
don't make me say it.
like
she TURNS DOWN A PROPOSAL FROM A MAN and then CHOOSES THE CAT. CAT! WHATS ANOTHER WORD FOR CAT!!
im done
but im not done with this thread! because then we get them doing all these gay best friend dance moves for a crowd of screaming GIRLS!!
then this happens. see tweet 1. i hate her.
