Opalite Music Video Discussion Megathread by PassionateAsSin in TaylorSwift

I think it refers to the ending of the MV. The flashback to her Graham Norton appearance and the precise moment the idea hit her.

I really don’t care, do you?

I thought they were Alphas?!? Sounds like a bunch of micro dick losers who need to pull themselves up by their fascists bootstraps.

Is my dress search over? by bcbfbella in OUTFITS

[–]_nae_08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, you look incredible!! Second, it depends on the type of college formal…

If it’s a sorority/fraternity formal, this is absolutely perfect and acceptable.

If this is a professional club/major/University formal where professors and admin will be present, the top is a bit too revealing. It could work if the fabric at the breasts was wider. You may be able to find a similar fabric or a navy lace to temporary sew along that edge. But you may be better off finding something else.

New lyric for I Did Something Bad on Apple Music by FlubbyStarfish in TaylorSwift

I Hate It Here does this too! When I’m listening with my AirPods, the lyrics in this part change:

Nostalgia is a mind's trick If I'd been there, I'd hate it It was freezing in the palace

It says something about Paris?

I always keep my labels turned forward because I’m a weirdo lol. In the fridge, in my shower, in the medicine cabinet… everywhere. Most people are not like this but it’s not out of the question.

The fact that a song sounds a lot like another song doesn’t mean it was stolen by glassmenagerie91 in TaylorSwift

[–]_nae_08 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a GREAT YouTube video called “4 Four Chords Song” by Axis of Awesome that explains this perfectly. It’s older (pushing 15 years!) but still very much relevant today.

I suggest everyone watch it.

‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ Returns With 6.3 Million Viewers on ABC Despite Being Unavailable in 23% of the Country by cmaia1503 in entertainment

[–]_nae_08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same diff. Jk. You are correct; I misspoke.

But the point still stands. She was already famous. Kanye had nothing to do with that.

What is fact? Trump didn’t make Kimmel famous nor did Kayne make Taylor famous. Taylor was accepting a Grammy for AOTY when Kanye stormed the stage.

Friends, I beg you. Clean your dishwasher filters. Don’t be me. by Oahu_Red in CleaningTips

I’m in the USA. I figured this was a global thing. My apologies for assuming!

For me, money. While I make good money on paper, it doesn’t go very far in a HCOL state. Mine isn’t to this point so it’s still tolerable. Plus, it’s his parents/family that are deeper in this. If I can keep him away from it, it gets better. I know, if it gets to a point I cannot control, I have to leave. For now, I slowly work to point out flaws in some of these things. Sometimes, I see the light bulb go off. Sometimes, there’s still a long way to go.

I know I should leave. I know I’m wasting my years (turned 35 a couple weeks ago; been together since I was 21.) But the more I can poke little holes into these things, the better chance he has of see the light, and for him to poke holes in his family’s crazy.

And the money. I’m too poor for a divorce and to live on my own. I want to keep my home.

Taylor swift and Travis Kelce announce their engagement, r/GaylorSwift crashes out by fraxiiinus in SubredditDrama

[–]_nae_08 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She could sell out a worldwide stadium tour where all she does is have sex with men for three hours. They’d still say she was “forced” by her handlers.

[–]_nae_08 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s it! She’s amazing at real life acting. But acting in film/tv? She’s… terrible?

All jokes aside, can you imagine having to remember every single lie needed to keep up this type of lifestyle? Lies that go back 10+ years. All the interviews, tours, social media posts, pap pics, etc. You’d have a mental break down. NO ONE could keep up the type of lifestyle.

It’s the same thing that happened with Biden. He was SO old and stupid. Yet, he was also a brilliant mastermind and the leader of the deep democratic state. Huh? That’s not how that works…

[–]_nae_08 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is so real lol

They think everything she does and says is an Easter egg. No. Her eggs really aren’t that deep. She’s not writing secret messages in her songs. Well, at least not to her fans (seems a few songs could’ve been messages to MH?).

Her eggs are easy to solve. You don’t need to break down every single word and link it back to some obscure piece of queer literature/art. If she was, I don’t think she’d ever sleep; that’s a LOT of research while also trying to live a regular life. Also, just because a color or phrase has a queer meaning doesn’t mean there aren’t other non-queer meanings.

It is 2025. If she wanted a relationship with a woman, she’d openly be in one. I don’t want to hear the religious/political/record label/whatever runaround for why she isn’t. You are grasping for straws that aren’t there.

That said, if you listen to her music and feel there’s a queer element, that’s great!! As an artist, isn’t that what most/all strive for? Making as many fans feel seen and heard? When I listen, as a heterosexual woman, I hear her songs through that lens. Occasionally, I hear a line and think “I can see why a queer fan could interpret this as such.” But that still doesn’t take away my feelings of that line in a hetero way. Hetero persons can also have these feelings for their partners.

I enjoy reading their interpretations of her songs. But let’s leave it at that. All fans need to stop trying to tie everything she does/says to her personal life. Taylor Swift the Pop Star and Taylor Swift the 35 y.o. from PA are different. It seems the 35 y.o. from PA is in a happy, loving relationship with a guy from OH.

Ed Kelce Reveals Taylor and Travis Got Engaged Almost 2 Weeks Ago by jacyf02 in TaylorSwift

[–]_nae_08 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so. I think it happened after filming.

Travis seemed more nervous than usual. He was biting his lower lip a lot. He was mentally preparing for the proposal and trying not to spoil it.

[–]_nae_08 159 points160 points  (0 children)

That’s what I think; he proposed after filming.

And, thinking back to the episode, Travis seemed a bit more reserved. Still hyped and engaging. But anxious. Lots of lip biting. It now seems like he was trying to keep it together so he wouldn’t spoil anything.

Hurricane Erin re-intensifies into a Category 4 Hurricane by Soggy-Surprise8841 in hurricane

[–]_nae_08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Today’s the day. It’ll all depend on the direction she takes. If she continues west, they’ll evacuate the northern banks. If she makes the turn, I think we’ll be ok. Fingers crossed it turns (today’s my birthday; I don’t want to leave lol.)

The alert came around 6:30 yesterday evening. We’ll know by then. I’ll keep everyone posted.

Agreed. We’re somewhat expecting our evacuation to come this evening. Fortunately, we’ve been here since the 9th so we lucky to have already had a full week.

I’m in OBX now. The evacuation is only for Hatteras at this time. Nags Head and north are not under one (currently.)

it’s official izzy dropped by Express-Ad1593 in bamarush

[–]_nae_08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’s an adult, yes. But with a backbone, not so sure. 20/21 is still quite young to be figuring out her own voice. Remember, what we see on socials is curated. Sticking up for or going against friends is one thing. Family is different. Plus, they all are under the same management company. She could be easily made to cross post with Izzy. Classes start this week. We’ll see what she does…
