👀 reddit users just noticed that during The Man in eras tour movie, Taylor does the ASL sign for lesbian !

Any ASL speakers around to confirm??

I believe that Getaway Car, Cruel Summer and Hits Different are a trio of sorts.

‘Cruel Summer’ is clearly a callback to summer 2014, and with the lyrical parallels in ‘Hits Different’, we can see she’s also referencing that period of time.

Taylor was not in a happy place in the summer of 2014..

The song ‘Getaway Car’ also displays clear motifs and themes that match with ‘Cruel Summer’ and ‘Hits Different’; Specifically crying in the car and leaving someone at a bar.

Nothing good starts in a getaway car

They were driving, but they never got far

She was CRYING in a getaway car

She was DYING in a getaway car…

In my opinion, ‘Getaway Car’ is a metaphor for Karlie convincing Taylor to move to NYC.

Taylor wrote on Jan 6th, 2014:

‘Love is fiction/a myth. I’m over it all’

‘Oh my, love is a lie. Shit my friends say to get me by.’

The cursed “space” that she “needed” was her choice to move to NYC instead of following Di to London.

Taylor did choose to conclude the European leg of her Red tour in London, on Feb. 11th, 2014, which is also the same day that she chopped her hair into a bob 🙃

It was also just days before the release of the ‘best friends’ Vogue photoshoot and Dianna’s response..

So messy!!!

Later in May 2014, Taylor went to The Met Gala with Karlie.

Dianna was also there, photographed being extra warm towards her rumored ex, Leà Michelle, which was unexpected since the two had seemed to be ‘feuding’.

Could you imagine seeing your ex with her ex, while you’re out with your rebound? I would have metaphorically died that night too.

After the Met Gala, Taylor turned up the pap walks.. err.. I mean the “sneaking” through the garden gate (looked more like trying to hurt someone else, if you ask me)

Talk about a cruel summer.

taylor posted a photo of sequined fabric fans felt reminiscent of the lesbian flag via instagram:

“4.26”

april 26th, of course, was the day taylor chose to release ‘ME!’, but it is notably also lesbian visibility day

we heard u loud and clear babe ♥️ @taylorswift

can somebody make the rest of the swifties understand that if you are allowed to believe so strongly that she’s straight, we are allowed to believe that she’s gay. if it’s “creepy and invasive” to think she’s gay, it’s creepy and invasive to think she’s straight. your homophobia is showing.

She did the new version of Lesbian in sign language tonight making sure we see her index finger clearly on her chin oh my god-

um. so i wound up working on a full annotation & analysis essay of this song & all the references it makes to other songs/literature (that i could find at least) & how it ties into the theme of this album being a critique of the music industry and her fans idolization of her & so so much more &&&& it is nearly 4am and i need to sleep butttt should i post it when i finish. yay or nay.
