THINKING ABOUT HER

TTPD THIS MONTH

“I apologize for the person I’ll be when The Tortured Poets Department comes out” I apologize for nothing you knew what this was

Taylor doesn't need to do any promo to be successful, but I do think it's also fair for fans to be disappointed or bored that she chooses to do literally nothing these days promote a new album. For me we have just kinda lost the fan connection with her completely that used to be so damn special. We're also all older, so it doesn't matter as much. But there's something sad about it. I'll always be here, always be so excited no matter what, but I do miss how things used to be sometimes.

k so i made this poll awhile ago to answer my question on if people would rather spend a date with a swiftie or an anti-swiftie (someone who hates her and devotes their life to hating on her). i mentioned i didn’t have the spoons to handle it being longer than a day and know it was going to be biased as it would start in my circle and would work it’s way out, so i wanted to do a longer poll when i had the energy to handle a week long poll like that. (i’m assuming when i post this, as i’m pre making it, i’ll be in recovery from my nose surgery since i’ll be stuck at home a week so i’ll have more time to monitor and look at the tags)

so nows the time, but i’m going to addendum the question a bit:

*some extra things that came up on the original poll i didn’t elaborate on fully that i want to make clear:

- you don’t get a say in what type of swiftie you get. assume that you’re going to be spending the evening with someone who massively loves her and her music and wants to discuss it. they’ll talk about songs, their favorite lines and meanings, symbolism behind the reputation album, etc.

- YOU MUST TALK ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT. even if it’s the anti-swiftie you must talk about her. i understand the sentiment people made on her not coming up, and that’s valid, but that’s not the question i’m asking. YOU HAVE TO SPEND THE EVENING WITH SOMEONE WHOS GOING TO TALK ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT NONSTOP, WILL IT BE THE LOVER OR HATER?

- im just trying to gather a general consensus on this and want to get data from a lot of people which means this is going to end up on people’s blogs who probably hate swifties and are annoyed by them. that’s okay as that’s the point of my question. but if you’re going to go off in the tags about how much you hate her or hate swifties and be an asshole about it im blocking you. you can just simple say “i hate her/i hate swifties” and don’t need to elaborate. you don’t need to sit in the tags going off on how much you hate her and trying to “defend” yourself from swifties. i just want an answer to the question.

- ALSO, this is not an open poll to go harass anyone in general. if you are a swiftie and see an hater in the tags and wanna fight DON’T FUCKING DO IT. just block and go read/watch your favorite media and think of blorbos kissing or whatever, but DO NOT SEND HATE OR HARASS ANYONE.

the hypothesis im trying to prove is that people in general would much rather spend an evening with someone that is going to talk about something they love all night vs someone who will spend the evening talking about something they hate. i want to gather as much data as possible to get a good consensus and if you go and be an asshole to someone because of their tags on this poll, either side of the swiftie to anti-swiftie spectrum, your disproving the point. if you see tags you don’t like just simply block and carry on. understand? k good.

- in general this is not meant to be a very serious or heavy question. it’s meant to just let me pick people’s brains and see what they’d want to do. i just want to get my results and go. just vote, drop your opinion in the tags, and go.

- also, this last part is silly and not at all related to my data, but since i’m forcing you on a dinner date i’ll at least let you pick the restaurant and food you have. so if you could also say what restaurant/food choice you’d want and what you’d want to order i’d love to hear it. sky’s the limit here. go nutz or even very specific on what you’d want to eat. i am trying to learn to cook and don’t know a lot of recipes or different food types, so i’m hoping this will give me a bigger idea of what food is out there to make. (this question is not meant to be a way to stick it to anyone or for you to go “i’ll go to a shitty ass restaurant and take a swiftie/anti-swiftie and make them eat garbage 🤪”, it’s just a fun question to give people something positive to add to the poll if they want. AGAIN IF YOUR GOING TO BE AN ASSHOLE ILL BLOCK YOU.)

- i’m going to be annoying and ask that you reblog for a wider sample size and such, if you don’t want to that’s fine, but i’m going to be polite and ask you nicely.

that should be everything, thank you for reading my long ass list and voting in this poll. i hope you have a good day and such.

I love you it's ruining my life... You don't get to tell me about sad... But daddy I love him... Am I allowed to cry?... The smallest man who ever lived... Old habits die screaming... my boy only breaks his favorite toys... My muses acquired like bruises... I can do it with a broken heart... All's fair in love and poetry...

[thiskidisonherown]

I’m proposing the idea that we spend some time with just you and me and the guitar. Is that all right with you?

[thiskidisonherown]

If the symbol of “The Bolter” is a hare running then I think this could be important.

In folklore, farmers would burn the stubble fo their crops in the fields to regenerate the earth into spring, and hares would often be seen to run into the flames, yet not be burned and be reborn. Hares are a symbol of rebirth.

This album is Taylor running headfirst into the flames that burnt down her relationship, tackling them head on and walking away reborn🤍

Just remember. She burnt down the Lover House.

Everything you lose is a step you take is kinda everything

it is! i also have been thinking A LOT about this specific part of her NYU speech:

The first of which is…life can be heavy, especially if you try to carry it all at once. Part of growing up and moving into new chapters of your life is about catch and release. What I mean by that is, knowing what things to keep, and what things to release. You can’t carry all things, all grudges, all updates on your ex, all enviable promotions your school bully got at the hedge fund his uncle started. Decide what is yours to hold and let the rest go. Oftentimes the good things in your life are lighter anyway, so there’s more room for them. One toxic relationship can outweigh so many wonderful, simple joys. You get to pick what your life has time and room for. Be discerning. 

as well as this part:

This may be hard for you to hear: In your life, you will inevitably misspeak, trust the wrong people, under-react, overreact, hurt the people who didn’t deserve it, overthink, not think at all, self sabotage, create a reality where only your experience exists, ruin perfectly good moments for yourself and others, deny any wrongdoing, not take the steps to make it right, feel very guilty, let the guilt eat at you, hit rock bottom, finally address the pain you caused, try to do better next time, rinse, repeat.  And I’m not gonna lie, these mistakes will cause you to lose things. I’m trying to tell you that losing things doesn’t just mean losing. A lot of the time, when we lose things, we gain things too.

THE BACK COVER “AM I ALLOWED TO CRY” OMG

[thiskidisonherown]

New cover of "THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT"

[thiskidisonherown]

"I was talking to you earlier about my new album. So, basically, I’m very excited for April 19th, because The Tortured Poets Department will be out on that date, and I cannot wait for you to hear all of those songs then. This album, this new one, Tortured Poets, is an album that I think, more than any of my albums that I’ve ever made, I needed to make it. It was really a lifeline for me, just the things I was going through, and the things I was writing about, it kind of reminded me of why songwriting is something that actually gets me through my life. And I’ve never had an album where needed songwriting more than I’d needed it on Tortured Poets. And I wanted to show you something tonight, because we’ve got an alternate cover to The Tortured Poets Department that nobody has seen, and there’s an exclusive song on this vinyl called The Bolter. So this is called The Bolter edition. Look at that cover! It’s so tortured, so poetic. So, I’m going to just show that to you here in Melbourne, because you’ve just been the best that you could possibly be. I’ve never played this song live before. It’s one of my favorites."

— Taylor before playing You're Losing Me (piano) in Melbourne, Australia on February 16th
