newfound grace.

and don't we try to love love!!! (love love) we give it all we've got!

taylors getting married!

I also think many people (including fans sadly enough) resent that they can't shame Taylor out of her personality. That no matter how many times they call her cringe or a loser or tone deaf or tell her they hate something, she doesn't try to make herself smaller or quieter anymore. It makes me think again of how she said she/celebrities are a mirror for how people feel about themselves. And I think it makes people resentful when someone who is simultaneously the most famous (and criticized) woman in the world and someone they feel personally superior to (in taste or personality or cool factor or whatever else), does not care at all about clean girl/quiet luxury/etcetc tiktok trends. And that forces them to acknowledge that they care a lot about what the internet tells them to like or dislike and that's not very nonchalant above-it-all cool girl of them!

the inside of msg on friday

SO SOON

taywedding in 2 days!!!!!!

I’m thinking that Taylor will post on Wednesday bc I will be driving and at a baseball game for most of the day so naturally that’s probably when she’ll choose to post

and you know what’s funny? there’s just so much classism in the choices people want her to make and in the choices her and joe made back then. like she used to pretty exclusively go to private rooms at restaurants, member’s only clubs, and sit in private boxes at plays.

I was thinking this: Taylor’s interest in women like Elizabeth Taylor makes so much sense because someone like Taylor can learn from how they both leaned in and protected themselves in the media. Even the wedding is giving off gilded age party in a good way: coveted invite, media attention, little actual known info about the event. If you look at historical contexts, what they’re doing is the way it’s always been done.

and you know what? if i say that the idea of having her wedding at a place that is famous in sports and music history AND is a place she dreamed of playing as a kid AND is a place nobody else will have their wedding at because they’re not her (aka instantly giving her an iconic and unrepeatable wedding) was a part of it too, y’all would be mad at me.

something that i think really fixed taylor’s brain is realizing that sometimes her unconventional life requires her to make unconventional choices // this is soooo real like once she herself was able to embrace the fact that her life is like this instead of constantly fighting against/ignoring/working around it all the time her whole world just broke wide open. and it just made her mentally and emotionally so much happier and at peace with herself.

long were the nights when my days once revolved around you
