my take on the 1830s thing is that it’s meant to be weird. she says explicitly in the song that it totally kills the conversation and mood. it’s meant to make you squirm a little because the point is that any decade you pick you only pick because of nostalgia and nostalgia is a lie of course you wouldn’t ever live in the past because it would be so much worse than here but sometimes you can get tricked into wanting to go back

TAYLOR SWIFT & POST MALONE Fortnight Music Video (2024)

[sophisticatedswifts]

One day I’ll hear the “I love you” line in fortnight and not think “I love you for giving me your eyes”

#I don’t know why but my brain always fills it in with that lyric

[sophisticatedswifts]

THE VERY MAN WHO LOVED HER IS THE ONE WHO IS EXPERIMENTING ON HER

TWO ACTORS FROM THE DEAD POETS SOCIETY??? SHE KNEW WHAT SHE WAS DOING.

Look at this email I just got from Taylor’s merch team

#it was just announcing the merch collection #why is it formatted like this #honestly it’s a mood

im sure lots of people will listen to TTPD and discount it because she talks about matty in it (and ofc people have their valid issues with him, but im not gonna go into that), but the whole lead up to the album has been “we’re investigating,” and imo a lot of us took that as her saying “we’re investigating why my relationship ended” whereas the album is actually about “we’re investigating this caricature of a girl who went through something life-changing, and she has apparently gone crazy” and she’s basically done a public autopsy of herself; something that the media/fans/public have done since the beginning, but this time around she was like “i’ll do it to myself.”

hence, the album aesthetic feels so sterile too imo. she’s trying to distance herself from the subject but!!!!!! she is the subject. and in conclusion, i think what she’s really putting down is “the summary of the investigation of this girl is that she went insane because of what happened to her, but it’s hopefully gonna be okay”

sidenote: i think what we need to take away from the album is to… let her live…

Apparently I painted my eras nails a year ago 🥺

#my show would’ve been 3 days away then

[sophisticatedswifts]

No, google, I didn’t actually 😐

Apparently no one knows how to spell the actual word fortnight

#I’m just trying to send the song to my dad #since he likes post malone #google is making this much more difficult than it needs to be

the amount of times taylor was promised a future with marriage and kids, from a older man who is societally at that stage in life (but she wasn’t good enough), to someone who wanted it so bad (in the wrong way) that he almost trapped her, to someone she grew up with for years and thought would love to be with her but that wasn’t true, to someone who came back in her life for a few weeks and promised her everything at her lowest and then ghosted her… built and broken down from the same high, promised what she wants the most and had it taken away repeatedly, and that leading into the prophecy and how she is fated to be left alone forever is just heartbreaking. i think one of the things i feel most in TTPD is resentment of these men making false promises, her hating herself because she always believes them and goes crazy when they leave.

#and on top of that having to deal with the whole world constantly questioning about when she’d have that too #since that’s what society expects of women #I can’t even imagine
