I hope your life leads you back to my door

The slamming of doors instead of kissing goodnight

So if the chain is on your door I understand

They slammed the door on my whole world, the one thing I wanted

Ended with the slam a door, but she’s got the best stories

👀🚪

What happens when you slam the door one too many times? And what happens if you slam it so hard it explodes?

The only portion of the recent messages not listed on the website is the quote: "I've done it again... Don’t look at that... it’s perfect! I get it right like 70% of the time".

This is in reference to a wardrobe malfunction that occurred while putting on the pink surprise song dress in the dark. Something about this night's speeches seems to imply that there's something much more meaningful about the song choices when Taylor appears to be nothing but flippant about the reasons why she picked the lakes in particular. Worth noting here is that these preceded the one and only pride speech given on the eras tour.

In addition, at the very top of the swift-lore list for June 2nd just happens to be an announcement that it's national donut day...

And what else is shaped like a donut with a hole in the middle? 🍩

Spade, still going, going, going? 🎭📸🤫💔

Wow, it’s been forever… starting to think you forgot me, Spade. Missed you, though.

---------

SR: Woah, hello stranger! We are still going.

Not sure if this is significant but the prolonged absence of going anon feels intentional. This is how much time lapsed between their 🤰🏼🤡 and 🎭📸🤫💔 messages.

It’s essentially the same thing right? 🪩

A reflection of oneself… 🐈‍⬛

“His love was the key that opened my skies.” -wood

Similarly, in a game of chess the R stands for rook—as in the piece that’s adept at checkmating the king. A rook is also a type of black bird, much like the one perched in the tree of the karma pop-up book.

“I can make deals with the devil because my check’s bigger.” -father figure

Ducee feels like a misspelt version of deuce. If the white rabbit and black bird placement represent the clean and barren sides of karma, does Ophelia’s orange bird and peach imply that there’s duplicate forms of karma? Or is this another example of Taylor repeating the same story?

“‘Cause shade never made anybody less gay.” -you need to calm down

Alternatively, if ducee is the correct spelling then the double ee would imply ownership over the word duce—which is Italian for leader. Is this stayed-i-am stadium anon guiding us back to “my lost fearless leader”?

“There was no where for me to stay, but I stayed anyway.” -renegade

And if the clean version of check is referring to the chess term once more, is it possible that the ‘friends forever’ friendship bracelet represents the muted version of a queer relationship?

“One bad seed kills the garden” - the Albatross

After all, there’s always two kings on a chessboard…

‘Two (bff) birds, one stone (fruit)’ perhaps? 💎🍑

Taylor's piano glitches and she says:

"sometimes your instruments just break and then we have to fix them"

facts 🏟️

Are you responding to this ask? Or are you adding to it? Your ask is unclear as to who you are - random reader or the 🏟️ sender.

AKA the reputation stadium tour?

The same one that’s shaped like “‘X’ marks the spot where we fell apart”?

26 or 13 x ii is an interesting inclusion of Roman numerals too.

When all of this is combined it reminds me of the ‘why she disappeared’ interlude.

“She dreamed of time machines and revenge

and a love that was really something,

Not just the idea of something.”

The piano did malfunction on Lyon n1 (France).

“Band-aids don’t fix bullet holes.”

“I can fix him, no really, I can.”

Looking back through old posts from the European leg I also found this interesting post from Taylor Nation...

Once upon a time, in Lyon all the stars aligned.

The full lyrics is “once upon a time, the planets and the fates and all the stars aligned” from mastermind.

And afterwards Taylor posted to say thank you to Lyon and used this photo of Taylor in the red reputation bodysuit.

Is this new anon trying to point us back towards the reputation era and the much anticipated vault songs? Or simply using it as a teaching moment to demonstrate the difference between truth and facts?

“when are facts a riddle? 🏟️”

When truth gets passed on as fact?

Misguided by our willingness to be open to change?

When our biases override our ability to consider other options because it could hinder our interpretation?

When there are multiple potential answers but only one that leads us somewhere further along the path?

When the truth has been hidden in plain sight?

When it needs to be deciphered?

“You know my train could take you home.

Anywhere else is hollow.”

If I had to pick one l'd answer with a question:

When are sssecrets a riddle?

"you belong with more than reflection" -🫚 anon

When shadows hold the day?

Or must one await cazimi,

To illuminate the way

Click, one two.

Clack, thrice four.

Hold your honor steady,

Dash traditions once more

Shadow falls upon the ground,

Shifts in perception.

Grounds break, pink moon,

All fated in perfection

When 5 comes first and the 1 follows I become a date, a day of workers rights, marches and megaphones. Bright little symbols of standing tall, turning toward the light, and refusing to BOW even when the world tries to BEND you.

LOYALTY isn't always about slogans, hands, jackets in crowds. It’s an Italian harbour with pastel houses that chooses you back. Violets that look delicate, until they push through stone.

Apart from the obvious 15 connection, 51 could be representative of album 5, track 1: ‘welcome to New York’.

“In your life you’ll do things greater than dating the boy on the football team.”

“But you know you wouldn’t change anything, anything, anything.”

“Violets that look delicate,

This last line in particular stands out with the connection to Ophelia’s flowers, the song ‘delicate’ and the “my best friend” rock from the ‘opalite’ music video. It also reminds me of this…

“What would you give to be freed?

The seeds that take root may be thought a nuisance, but take heed

Of what makes a wildflower and what makes

A weed.” -☀️ anon

the last post insinuates taylor will either be walking through a door as herself and exiting (as a lot of us have been pointing out the exit signs that is definitely plausible) or continuing on as director taylor for future endeavors.

now it’s october 14th, yesterday morning taylor revealed a new documentary with 6 parts. it starts on december 12th and then the other parts are released week by week that fits perfectly with the alternative tl.

it also revealed the truman door theory, the cover art is taylor about to walk through an orange glittery door, same as tour, in her tour outfit with her guitar. (we also get the same colors she’s been hinting at for a while now: 🧡💜🤍)

and now knowing she reiterates in the preview of this documentary that it’s the end of a chapter, an era, is taylor finally stepping into the daylight and letting go? ending all pr relationships for good? all the life of a showgirl endeavors? is it the scene in willow where the bait & switch was a work of art and steps through the door hand in hand with her true lover? or is it director taylor?

my guess is as good as anyone else’s lol idk what’s next for her but i do believe taylor wants to be able to be free from that glass closet/cage and write freely about her true muse in peace, whom we suspect is karlie, and tell the whole world to fuck off and leave them alone.

Oh we bug @kylieswift31 around here 😁 Here is her post:

The new album and eras tour docuseries definitely confirmed that we’ve reached the moment in the Truman show where the camera zooms out to show the reality of Truman’s life under a microscope. The jarring reaction many have had to the change in Taylor’s typical lyricism throughout this album is an indication that something’s not quite right during a time when it’s supposed to be business as usual after the masters and engagement announcement. I wouldn’t be surprised if the patchwork of uncredited interpolations is the musical equivalent of the picture of Sylvia that Truman takes with him when he finally escapes when everyone least expected it.

I’d also highly recommend watching the ‘fortnight’ and ‘the fate of Ophelia’ music videos back to back to see the transition from the theatre screen to the theatre lobby as the portrait of Taylor also ties into the line about how “every bait and switch was a work of art”. This scene is intrinsically connected to Taylor’s comments about the parallax as this concept reveals how the surface level view often prevents us from considering what’s below the surface or concealed off screen—which is yet another example of Taylor trying to warn us that she’s utilised mob mentality to hide the truth in plain sight.

In terms of the eras tour docuseries, I get the feeling that’s going to create a confronting juxtaposition between the serendipitous creation of the eras tour and the extensive effort Taylor has put into curating not just the show, but also the eras era.

And remember how Taylor finally called Travis her boyfriend during her acceptance speech and said his name for the first time? Everyone who believed it was cheering because they finally got what they wanted. That progressive build up when everyone already knew they were together is what it’s going to feel like when Taylor eventually exits and walks through the (closet?) door. In the meantime, this next chapter of her story is designed to get everyone else on board so that when she does eventually do it (in sixteen months?) the only people who will be unhappy about it will be the ones who prevented her from doing it the first time. ✌🏼

An update on the Truman show timeline

"He's not a performer, he's a prisoner. Look at him. Look at what you've done to him." -Sylvia, while on phone with the Truman show

For a while now I've been waiting to see what Taylor would do next to get a better grasp on where we are on the Truman show timeline. I don't particularly like predicting (in detail at least) what she's going to do in the future, but I did want to narrow in on what we could expect going forward now that we're on the cusp of the life of a showgirl album being released...

Following the release of the tortured poets department album and the ending of the eras tour, the last significant occurrence in Taylor's career was the announcement that she had finally purchased her masters. From a purely metaphorical perspective, this momentous occasion lines up with the moment Truman was finally reunited with his father—just like the two Taylors were reunited with giant Taylor (her body of work) in the 'anti-hero' music video. These similarities between Taylor and Truman invites us to consider what else Taylor could be fighting for when striving to own all of her own work was always the biggest motive at the forefront of the re-recording process.

(And just to be clear: comparing the sale of Taylor's masters to the Truman show in this way is in no way intended to diminish the significance of her now owning her life's work.)

On the surface, this reunion with his father appears to be what Truman had wanted more than anything else in the world, as it was what he (and the director) had been drawing the audience's attention towards over and over again. But on a deeper level, it was the ultimate bait and switch because it allowed Truman to return his father's ring (that contained a hidden spy camera) without raising suspicion—which ultimately allowed him to escape when everyone had least expected it. Is a similar handover occurring now with Taylor returning to collaborating with Max Martin and Shellback? While quite literally ghosting Jack Antonoff—as see in the bejewelled music video? The request for that change was certainly a domineering conversation amongst many of Taylor's fans following the release of the tortured poets department album.

From the director's perspective, reuniting Truman with his father figure had been his final attempt to prevent Truman from trying to escape. The celebrations that ensued in the control room were further proof that Truman was going to stay—now that he no longer had any reason to leave—and their focus quickly shifted to the show returning to normal in the hopes that Truman would finally procreate with his newest love interest. Sounds familiar right?

The announcement of the life of a showgirl album on the New Heights podcast also marked a similar 'the show must go on' resumption of Taylor's life in the spotlight. With many of the visuals now featuring director Taylor and a focus on Taylor's budding relationship with Travis, the role the director has played in scripting Taylor's life is becoming increasingly hard to ignore.

For a while now Luna has been discussing their midnights mayhem theory on bluesky. This theory was originally centred around the first thirteen songs from the midnights album that were announced in the Midnights Mayhem with Me promo, as they were beginning to line up with various themes and events within the New Romantics community each week. It started with lavender haze on the 25th of April—which just happens to be the date mentioned in Taylor Nation's post that first started the alternate timeline theory—and since then it's now evolved to include all of the songs from the various midnights album variants as well. We're currently in karma (feat. Ice Spice) week now and the timeline is due to end shortly with dawn (the til dawn variant) on the 3rd of October, AKA the release date for the life of a showgirl album.

So what does Luna's timeline have to do with the Truman show? Dawn. Or more specifically, the moment the director lost control and used the daylight during the middle of the night in a desperate attempt to try and locate Truman after he had managed to escape. After all, the sun only rises once a day right? Everyone that was out searching for Truman had been left wondering what time it was—not just because it was abnormal for dawn to start in the middle of the night, but because the town of Seahaven was so perfectly orchestrated that everything ran like clockwork—including Truman.

So, if the sudden onset of dawn symbolises the director losing control after Truman had abandoned the script, we're left with one question that still remains unanswered—which is why is it going to end? If reuniting with his father wasn't Truman's ultimate goal, why did he continue with his escape plan when everyone else had just assumed that he would be content enough with his life in Seahaven to stay? The answer to that question is the same reason why there seems to be more to Taylor's fight to owning her own music beyond what meets the eye: freedom, independence and autonomy.

There was something about the in summation poem from the tortured poets department album that signalled that Taylor had reached the end of a chapter within her life, as it felt like the story she'd been telling had come to an end—despite the fact that it still felt a little incomplete. That feeling of discontinuation seems to be linked to the turning point in the Truman show where we start to view Truman's life from the perspective of the director. That peek (peak?) behind the curtain that the life of a showgirl album has in store for us is more than likely to be more of a birds eye view from behind the facade of the moon that conceals the director's control room.

The fourteenth 🎃 anon message that Spade Riddles received last October was potentially the first signal that initially reflected that change in viewpoint. With many examples of what Taylor would've personally experienced within the eras tour, it encapsulated the message that “oftentimes, it doesn’t feel so glamorous to be me.” What often goes unnoticed—and what has kept me so enthralled with the connections between Taylor and the Truman show for so long—is the fact that this exact statement also perfectly encapsulates the undertone of Truman's daily greeting.

"Incase I don't see ya (because there will come a time where you won't see me anymore), good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight! Hahaha! Yeah!" -Truman Burbank

With all of the karma door and exit sign motifs that have been a prominent fixture throughout this album rollout, it's becoming difficult to gauge just how far Taylor is willing to go when it comes to completing the Truman show timeline. This album could either be solely focused on director Taylor with more to come in the future, or this era could eventually be completed with Taylor—either physically or metaphorically—walking through the (closet?) door once and for all.
