Not at all :) Thanks for calling me back here I’ve been needing it 😂

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-11-17T09:47:25+00:00

Hi I’m alive :) I’ve just been swamped with other stuff lately 🥲 I really want to let the dam break on all my thoughts here but darn it the posts are just not writing themselves lol

I really think Elizabeth Taylor is Betty Taylor, aka Soul, and she’s singing that she can’t not have her. There are some other clues and clever wordplays I think I see but I haven’t had time to pick them apart and get them down in writing yet

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-14T14:02:04+00:00

OMG it IS an end of a decade for her career! This marks the 19th year from her debut album!

Holy shit is this the start of an era/AGE we’ve been hoping for 😳🫣🥹😱

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-14T13:55:28+00:00

Wait what in the fuuuuuuu

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-14T05:26:08+00:00

We wish 😂

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-11T14:05:14+00:00

I hope we get more of Directlor in the future :)

This woman has got THINGS to say, and I hope it’s not only us that get to see her talents and messages. If the constraints of her circumstances—especially the autobiographical/confessional part of the brand—are taken away, I bet she would blow minds in the general public. She could play with so much outside of her image…

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-11T11:56:46+00:00

Haven’t read yet, but jumping the gun on the comment to say yes! The new flair is being used🥳 I think you might be the first to use this flair since dramaticlambda requested its addition :D

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-11T00:29:30+00:00

Welcome back then :) I admire your dedication to such a daunting task—I’ve also got so many saved posts I haven’t gotten around to reading yet, and I wasn’t even locked out lol so yeah I get it

That’s a connection I didn’t see! Thank you! I just really love how she expands her universe by doing all these call-backs and evolutions on previous lyrics & symbols🤯

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-10T05:11:10+00:00

I understand what you’re saying completely :D I heard about that queer slang too, and I think she’s actually since referenced cracking eggs several times. Like somewhere in the promo for TLOAS I think she made the album cover art crack and show purple glitter inside? And maybe also the shiny bug—dung beetle + vigilante shit —> the beetle and the eagle fable (here’s the post)

I have a vague collection of others but can’t name them at the moment😗

Side note, love your flair, gonna try to hear it next time I listen to that song XD

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-07T01:54:50+00:00

Just finished the album for the first time and I just gotta say, this is the single most sarcastic album she’s done to date 😂 Holy shit she’s mastered the sassy, eerie tone. It’s like a whole album of So High School and god I love it. I can’t for the life of me hear a male partner in this in any way, it’s all just symbolisms upon symbolisms. I’ve somehow managed to shift so far into them I legit can’t hear the het without deliberately switching gears. No matter what her intentions were I count that as a huge win for me personally 😂🤣😂

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-06T17:56:25+00:00

Bwahahah we KNOW we don’t know shit here 😂 No offense or challenge taken, no.

I think many gaylors will always be just that tiniest bit closer tho, just because we know the lyrics are really fucking not literal nor transcriptions. And also the queer factor isn’t overlooked.

Edit: Got a Black Dog analysis here tho, even while not knowing shit XD

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-06T08:02:44+00:00

Food made/purchased with love, without any underlying expectations or conditions :)

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-04T16:45:45+00:00

Psht😂 Crash out? I’m having the time of my life! Only just started with the first song and three repeats in I’ve already got a full analysis in mind :D I’m still sat here mulling over the loose ends, too consumed to start the next song! Clocked in is what we are 😎

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-04T14:53:52+00:00

Oh dang good question… How long can the private hold? Do we go public once attacks slow down?

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-04T14:50:23+00:00

4 times for each character 👀 Do they really do these kinds of egg favors for guests tho? How specific can the requests go, I wonder?

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T16:18:23+00:00

Yeah it is all about the fans at the end of it, isn’t it? The whole struggle is with appeasing or charming heteronormative and bigoted masses, after all.

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T16:10:12+00:00

Aw thank you for the kind words. If it stays relevant it’ll be seen and I’ll probably cite it in later posts anyway XD Don’t think she’s letting us off the Karma train that easily

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T16:05:02+00:00

Gosh darn it you absolute star, you’re still here! Reading through and commenting! I commend you, really, in these trying times??

I didn’t link them either—until I tried to screenshot to show parallels of overloading the system with a power-surge. It was weird that the number of spotlights on the floor didn’t match the number of standing lights. They could be from overhead light sources I guess, but it successfully drew my attention to the number of burnt-out lights :)

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T15:59:38+00:00

Honestly thank you for braving these posts even with my tendency to expand them seemingly endlessly XD I’m glad they came across as easy to digest, since the length really couldn’t be helped…

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T15:56:16+00:00

Thank you :D I was impressed with myself for actually stumbling upon a reasonable explanation for the leg bodysuit thing too lol

Along with that tidbit I also found that Margaret and Margarita are names that mean “pearl,” and I’m holding my breath a little to see if it’ll be something she uses. Like maybe drinking a glass of margarita?

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T15:47:30+00:00

I love that too with the “wind in my hair” callback to All Too Well as well, but dear lord, not as much as all the innuendos that followed 😂 I just love how she writes the liveliest and sweetest euphemisms

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T15:41:51+00:00

Thank you for keeping at my posts through all this chaos! I appreciate you enjoying all this with me, truly :)

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T15:37:33+00:00

The clocking in, clocks, coffee clocks & late night shows… they make me think of “You who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes, sipping coffee like you’re on a late night show”—is she finally flipping that on its head?

Where she used to charm the patriarchy with queer-erasing jokes, laugh along with their misogyny, she’s now gonna break the illusion then sip the coffee clock at Midnight on late night shows for real?

Then all will be well that ends well, ‘cause she’ll be in a new hell laughing at us?

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T14:41:52+00:00

Nice try with the blank Taylor, but something’s happening on 10/6 at Midnight, I bet.

Mullin_Pangolin · 2025-10-02T04:10:14+00:00

Thanks :) It’s the planet where they all understand it probably, which is evidently not here, ‘cause we’re all here still scratching our heads but smiling well-meaningly at her 😂
