CLOCK (2023)
Weird little Hulu original about women, babies, and being Jewish. Creepy at points, scary in others, confusing for parts, and overall just a strange film. It leaves a lot of questions unanswered but also gives you a lot to think about which is half the battle. Certainly wouldn’t recommend if you are already freaked out about kids and all that, otherwise, got nuts.
⭐⭐⭐
(Trigger Warning Suicide)
The scariest part of this movie is that people won’t just let the protagonist do what she wants with her life, so what if she doesn’t want to have kids? Leave her alone! Ella is a pretty successful lady who is in her late thirties so everyone is riding her about having a baby but she doesn’t want one so there has to be something wrong with her, right? It is impossible to be an adult who just is okay with not having children apparently but also no one is pushing for adoption either so what kind of message are they trying to teach us, huh? Seriously, at no point in this movie does anyone encourage one of these baby crazy women who maybe cannot have children to adopt kids BUT I DIGRESS.
Ella goes to a new gynecologist with the bedside manner of a bedpan who tells Ella that her biological clock must be broken which is one of the most wack things for a doctor to just diagnose you with out of thin air. Again, heaven forbid you just don’t want the same thing as everyone else, you must be broken, right? It is impossible to have a different taste for things which is why we all flee to our separate corners of the internet for our niche groups, come ON people. Anyway, the vagina doc talks her into going to a place that will “fix” her clock.
But the medicine makes Ella see crazy and scary things. She is seeing spiders everywhere and a VERY tall lady with a bent neck (hello Haunting of Hill House). She is also haunted by clocks in all forms but her heritage clock that is passed down through her family grates on her the most. It even gets to the point where she destroys the thing in a fit of rage. We also find out that her husband has been setting her up with all of these crazy doctors because he wants a baby (wack). She is really mad at him but it doesn’t matter because we find out she didn’t destroy the clock at all…
After Black Swan I get a little tired of the bait and switch they pull with the protagonist seeing all sorts of wacky things but then later we find out they actually did something else entirely. When we find out she actually took apart her father instead of the clock that was a little meh, especially because how did she do that without getting blood all over her? She had the smallest amount of blood on her fingers but not what you would have with what she apparently (ha) did. Ella evades the police and jumps off the scenic overlook.
There was also a message about how scary and awful the holocaust was which is kind of bizarre but also very deep and intense. I appreciate their boldness on the subject as it is a divisive one to be handled (and somehow something some people doubt happened at all). They brought up how terrifying it was that it happened during “civilized” society. How that makes it feel like it could happen again today. Gave me chills. Far worse than the baby stuff.

Gracelynn “Gracie” Marie Taylor | “The hard part of being a star is only getting to shine when the sun’s gone away.”
☆☆☆ i really didn’t think the teenage soccer players turned c*nn*b*l*st*c cult pipeline program i started watching during college snow days was going to be what pulled me out of a 4.5 year writing hiatus- but here we are!! truth be told y’all i’ve been lurking in the van palmer reader fics and it gave me an itch to ✨write✨

pre-crash 🪽 knowledge
portrayed by dianna agron
☁️ Gracelyn “Gracie” Taylor, living infamously to strive for the same level of belovedness as her twin sister, Jackie. Cheer captain, top of her graduating class, volunteering on the weekends- but nothing could quite fill that sense of empty on the inside. the void that you aren’t really supposed to talk about with anyone that’s not your own train of thought alone in bed at night or in the shower. the kind you pretend doesn’t consume you.
☁️ I mean sure, Gracie’s always had Jackie- they were twin’s for God’s sake, it’s almost like they were destined to exist together. Moon and Sun, Bee and Butterfly, all those things, they’d only ever know life living in comparison to the other. Gracie lacked so much of what Jackie had, the jocky boyfriend, the team of adoring friends- and it was a constant pressure sitting in the pit of her stomach through every match cheering her on, every ride home from another Yellowjackets party- even boarding that plane to nationals for emotional support.
more to come soon……

yes, i definitely do and so far, i've been doing that quite well — especially once i stopped trying to live as if i was older than i really am. appreciating being young while it lasts, you know?
Feel like you have to concentrate on whats genuinely you rather than making a big splash for the sake of it? I can really respect that

On the double standards of Taylor’s love life and Swifties’ role in Taylor’s reputation
{Fair warning: this is kind of long and I actually originally wrote it during the Ratty stuff but it’s relevant now and this post from @9w1ft (specifically the tweet) made me think that maybe this needed to be really laid out there. }
Disclaimer: I am in no way claiming to know what Taylor’s sexuality is definitively, nor am I suggesting that every relationship she’s had with a man was fake, or that she is a lesbian. I myself have experienced enough bi erasure and biphobia to know better, but I had to put this out there explicitly so hetlors don’t have that as a “gotcha”.
Swifties have the lowest possible standards for whom they consider to be a boyfriend of Taylor’s.
Their standards are a) the media has to stir something up b) they have to interact distantly in some public capacity before they c) walk around together (holding hands or not).
I can give you the names so many women with whom Taylor acted like that, often for longer periods of time and with more interaction than a couple dinners and pap walks or whatever she’s done with those men. And that’s without time to go do research which would doubtlessly turn up more names.
To name some examples:
Karlie Kloss, Diana Agron, Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, Blake Lively, Cara Delevingne, Martha Hunt, Sophie Turner, Lorde, all three Haim sisters, Zoe Kravitz, Emma Stone, Camila Cabello, Lily Aldridge, Lily Donaldson.
(To be clear, I’m not suggesting that Taylor dated all or most of those women.)
Now, I have no doubt that if most swifties looked up photos of Taylor with a lot of those women they’d go “they aren’t even doing anything in that picture” or “they’re just walking side by side” or whatever else.
THAT’S THE POINT
I’m 1000% sure that if you photoshopped a man into basically any of those pics people would assume they’re dating because they’re walking together.
Almost all of Taylor’s supposed boyfriends have had significantly less interaction with her than those women, but people don’t hesitate to say she’s dating the men. Her team can and will deny it, but swifties will add a name to their list anyway, and that creates a whole other problem.
The sl*t shaming:
In my opinion, the sl*t shaming that Taylor has experienced for about the last 15 years has been, at least in part, because of swifties who jump to conclusions about men she’s seen with. When her own fans believe she’s dated however many guys, it’s that much easier for the media to repeat that and twist it to be negative.
If you wouldn’t look at a random guy and girl standing within a few feet of each other or walking together and come to the conclusion that they must be dating, why do you assume that about Taylor? Or, for that matter, does every person of the opposite gender that you associate with have to be your SO?
[And yes that can easily be turned around on Gaylors, but the whole point is that we aren’t solely using proximity to link potential exes or lovers to Taylor. We actually do the analysis of the lyrics, we break down the connections, we do the research.]
My point is that swifties have contributed on a large scale to Taylor’s sl*t shaming in a way that should make them think twice about who they claim she’s dating. Unfortunately as we’ve seen with this M*tty situation {and now the football guy}, they don’t seem to have the self awareness to realize how they’ve aided such a disgusting campaign of hate.
One more thing: you can say that no one will say those things now anyway because Taylor is on top of the world and they wouldn’t dare sl*t shame the Queen of Pop or “The Music Industry”. You might even be right. But if you do this and feel no guilt or shame over how your actions may have played a part in the several intense periods of sl*t shaming that Taylor has gone through previously, you need to think about why that is.
Taylor said it best in her speech at the Grammy museum in September 2015. She was introducing Blank Space and talking about the situation that made her write the song.
“In the last couple of years the media have had a really wonderful fixation on kind of painting me as like the psycho serial dater girl… It got pretty out of control there for a couple of years because… every article would be like, Taylor Swift Standing Near Some Guy. Watch Out Guy!”
That sounds insane, and it was definitely worse then than it is now, but the fact that it’s happening right now at all is ridiculous. Swifties need to stop helping the media tie Taylor’s name to men as if that makes her relevant. She’s a highly awarded singer, songwriter, and performer who has set and broken records (and then broken the ones she’s set) countless times. Swifties need to stop pretending that dating someone is what makes her interesting or we’re no better than the people who think she only writes breakup songs.
#sorry that this is so long#I’m sure I left stuff out though so definitely feel free to add#okay i’ll shut up now#kaylor#gaylor#gaylor swift#lgbetty#friends of dorothea

If you do not like Gaylor or Swiftgron content, feel free to block and/or keep scrolling!
I do not know Taylor Swift or Dianna Agron. This is celebrity gossip, and everything is alleged.
This would not be possible without the Swiftgron Masterpost – credit where credit is due!
This is a follow up to my Part One analysis of “Peter is…Dianna?” which you can find here. Part One made the case that Dianna is the muse for “Peter” and “I Look in People’s Windows” (“ILIPW”).
This part will be connecting “Peter” & “ILIPW” to other Taylor songs commonly attributed to Dianna.
So that you are not bombarded with text, the heavy lyrical analysis will have images from https://ts-lyrics.netlify.app/ to make this post seem less clunky!
Connections to “Peter”
We explored the connections between “Peter” and “ILIPW” in Part One. We will be focusing on other alleged Dianna-inspired songs here.
These are not all the songs associated with Dianna, and some of these you may not believe are about Dianna at all. Those are completely valid takes, and I’m not here to fight with anyone! This is just an overview.
“Wonderland”: Both songs touch on the theme of longing for a magical relationship that is ultimately unattainable. Again, the theme of yearning from Part One is revealed here, along with danger and excitement.
“Everything Has Changed”: Both this song and “Peter” discuss a) the passage of time, b) the impact it has on relationships, c) again, yearning.
“Treacherous”: Both songs explore the complexities of relationships and the risks one takes for someone they love. Themes of danger and excitement are in both narratives.
“Come Back…Be Here”: “Peter” and “CBBH” highlight yearning for someone (Peter/the muse) who is physically and/or emotionally distant. An undergoing discussion of reuniting with the muse is also conveyed throughout both songs.
“Clean”: Both touch on themes of healing and moving on from past relationships and broken promises. There’s a universal theme of acceptance, emotional catharsis, and renewal in both songs (in Peter, the latter is showed through: “the woman who [stood] by the window has turned out the light.”)
“Cowboy Like Me”: Both songs delve into the allure of fleeting connections, and transient lifestyles. Cowboys move around as they please, much like Peter or Alice do in their stories. Taylor conveys her shared experiences with the muse, despite their unconventional lifestyles. The theme of danger and excitement weaves through “Cowboy Like Me” as well.
Lyrical Parallels
Stars, Skies, & Windows
Several songs thought to be about Dianna can be tied back to key themes and imagery from Peter Pan.
“cowboy like me” is often attributed to Dianna. The line “you’re a bandit like me” is reminiscent of the Lost Boys, and eyes full of stars coincide with the imagery of stars throughout Peter Pan - the second star to the right.
In “Call It What You Want,” Taylor seems to be mending from an old relationship that left her brokenhearted. This line about windows being boarded up is interesting, even if the song isn't connected to Dianna (as far as we know...)
Yet AGAIN Taylor is referencing windows as a “portal” and even “time travel.” I haven’t heard anyone connect this song to Dianna, but the symbolism of windows and how Taylor writes about/views windows is FASCINATING. Additionally, “Midnight Rain” obviously has a water theme, which ties back into “Clean." More on that later.
OKAY. “I’d PICK YOU UP and WE’D GO BACK IN TIME”!??!!? Peter would pick Wendy up and go back to Neverland, where they NEVER. GROW. UP. Obviously, Taylor is not over the muse she is writing about.
I have SO many feelings about “seven.” It was mentioned briefly in Part One of my analysis. It echoes so many of the sentiments of “Peter”: closets, being kids, skies, the general feeling of loss.
Also, if you're iffy on "long story short" being connected, you should at the very least consider this:
Water
“Clean” has lots of water imagery. So do several other songs people think Dianna may be the muse of.
This also ties into “Midnight Rain,” whose lyrics are mentioned in this analysis. Though I haven’t seen this song tied to Dianna and personally am not convinced of it, the lyrical and theme ties do exist!
Lights, Lamps, Lanterns
Lights are a recurring lyrical analogy in songs attributed to Dianna.
The lights in “Treacherous” illuminate a risky and forbidden path.
In “Wonderland,” flashing lights indicate the beginning of a love affair with this muse.
The lack of light indicates that the relationship with the muse is over.
Light indicates hope that her relationship could be salvaged; Taylor lets the lamp burn.
...until she turns out the light.
At the end of “Peter,” Taylor lets us know she has given up hope, at least for now.
***
I hope this makes sense! I didn't include every mention of a word or phrase; I made sure it fit with the overall theme of this post and connecting songs to "Peter."
I will put up Part Three when/if I've gathered enough analysis to warrant it! I hope this is has been a fun read.

The super talented @himbohotel sent: Castus looks to the never-ending snow, tugging his tattered shawl closer to his body. ❛ If you’re lucky, you die last, ❜ he says as his eyes train on the sweet, fierce boy who tended to his needs while he sat prisoner. Nasir. Such a gentle soul wrapped in a body of a warrior. ❛ If only to spare him the grief of watching you fall. ❜
ㅤㅤㅤThough he wish it weren't so, every word from Castus's scorned lips needles at Agron's patience, of which he is already in short supply. The Gladiator grits his back teeth, resisting urge to bark at the Numidian. He follows the line of the other man's gaze, mouth flattening into a hard line.
ㅤㅤㅤ“Nasir stands more warrior than most men in Rebellion,” Agron snaps in return, less an answer than a challenge. The Germani reminds himself that his lover's goodwill is worth this annoyance of freeing Castus, many times over. He just wishes the fucking pirate would stop looking.
ㅤㅤㅤ“… I would see him survive this war.” Agron finally relents, quieter, though the frown does not ease from his face. “He deserves freedom… true freedom, and life beyond Roman control."
ㅤㅤㅤIt's a thought that has plagued Agron these past months. He's always known Spartacus's dream of liberation might come at the cost of his own life. For a while, such reality served as a comfort, for what better purpose could the Germani have beyond slaughtering the Roman Fucks that murdered his brother? But now.. now he has Nasir, a blessing made flesh. His greatest reason to live… or to die ensuring the Syrian a chance at a real future.
ㅤㅤㅤBut Castus is not entirely wrong. If Agron were to fall, he knows without shadow of doubt that Nasir would follow him into death. It is a thought that seizes heart in the Gladiator's chest. But he will not give the Pirate such satisfaction of knowing the weight of his words.
ㅤㅤㅤ“The only death on mind should be your own.” Agron grumbles, dusting flakes of snow from his furs. He doesn't look at Castus again, “..and whether it will come from Roman blade, or mine."
#himbohotel#thread: himbohotel04 (Castus)#EEEEE thread for Agron!!#I'm so happy! Thank you for sending this!#I'm placing this timing around the “Mors Indecepta” episode. Where Agron has freed Castus but they've not yet left the mountains#wow my agron voice is rusty#also he is being very 'mature'#Fandom: Spartacus#c: Agron#Agron: threads#Agron :: verse :: War of the Damned#ic

the funny thing about gaylor theory is that we suppose belivie glee actress dianna agron and c list at best model karlie kloss had a power dynamic with taylor like she describes with jake g that was older from a rich family
I’m not to familiar with all the gaylor theories but this one really doesn’t make sense to me. If it was real I see TS as the one with the power. With Jake she was young and to trusting.

The Embassy opened at its Jerusalem location on May 14, 2018, the 70th Gregorian anniversary of the creation of the modern State of Israel.[3] It was relocated from its previous site in Tel Aviv by the Trump Administration and is situated in what was previously the former US Consulate in the Arnona neighborhood.[4] The opening prayer was delivered by the Evangelical Reverend Robert Jeffress, and the closing prayer was given by the Evangelical Reverend John C. Hagee.[5][6][7] The move came 23 years after the passage of the Jerusalem Embassy Act of October 23, 1995, which set a deadline of May 31, 1999, for the move.[8] The Clinton, Bush, and Obama administrations had all deferred the move. Eugene Kontorovich claimed that the decision to shift the US embassy to this area is tantamount to the United States recognizing Israeli sovereignty over land that it captured in the Six-Day War in 1967.[9]
-
On October 18, 2018, United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that the US would be merging the Embassy and US Consulate General in Jerusalem into a single mission. The United States will continue conducting relations with the West Bank and Gaza through a newly created Palestinian Affairs Unit which will operate from the Agron Site of the Jerusalem Embassy.[1] While the decision was praised by the Israeli Government, Palestinian officials criticized the Trump Administration for siding with Israel's claim to Jerusalem and "Greater Israel".[11][12][13][14] In February 2019, it was announced that the US Consulate General would be formally merging into the US Embassy in March.[15][16][17] On March 4, 2019, the US Consulate-General was formally integrated into the US Embassy in Jerusalem. The Consulate-General's Agron Street premises were revamped as the Palestinian Affairs Unit, which would handle many of the Consulate-General's former functions. This ends the US practice of assigning separate diplomatic missions to the Israelis and Palestinians.[18][19][20][21] In response, Saeb Erekat, the secretary-general of the Palestine Liberation Organization's executive committee called for the international community to boycott the new Palestinian Affairs Unit.[22][23][24] Erekat's sentiments were echoed by fellow Executive Committee member Hanan Ashrawi, who denounced the merger of the Consulate General as "political assault on Palestinian rights and identity".[25]
-
On December 18, 2017, in a 14–1 vote, the US vetoed a United Nations Security Council draft resolution on the matter[27] then on December 21, 2017, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution by a 128–9 vote.[28] Palestinian officials warned that it could lead to an "inactive war" and violent protests.[29] The Embassy's opening coincided with the bloodiest day of the 2018 Gaza border protests, with more than 57 Palestinians killed.[30][31] French Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs Jean-Yves Le Drian said, "This decision contravenes international law and in particular the resolutions of the Security Council and the UN General Assembly".[30] On September 28, 2018, Palestine brought a case against the US at the International Court of Justice alleging that the relocation of the embassy breached the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations and other rules of general international law. The International Court of Justice asked for briefs covering jurisdiction and admissibility, Palestine's submission by May 15, 2019, the US by November 15, 2019.[32] The opening of a new US Embassy in Jerusalem led two other countries to move their embassies to Jerusalem. Two days after the US Embassy opened, Guatemala moved its embassy to Israel back to Jerusalem.[33] Paraguay also opened a Jerusalem embassy to Israel, citing the US precedent.[34] Newly elected Paraguayan President Mario Abdo Benítez decided to relocate the Paraguayan embassy back to Tel Aviv.[35]
