Okay I Gotta Ask Because I Keep Seeing This Phrase Here And On Twitter Too. What Is Yellow Brick Road

Okay I gotta ask because I keep seeing this phrase here and on Twitter too. What is yellow brick road in connection to Taylor? I’m new to this side of the fandom and would be grateful if you explain it. Thanks!

I would love to! So as we know the yellow brick road has direct connections to Dorothy. And in queer history we coined the term Friend of Dorothy as a way to say you are queer because the Wizard of Oz as a whole is extremely queer coded.

When evermore released, we got the song Dorothea and all of us knew Taylor's intention behind that was a nod to "friend of Dorothea". This became the overarching term besides gaylors that we began using for the community! Then a well known gaylor that Taylor has interacted with before, Tess, made a whole podcast called friends of dorothea.

This only encouraged Taylor to incorporate friend of dorothy more into her art! That's when we got things like the Karma MV where she is dressed as dorothy and she is walking the yellow brick road on the screaming color side rather than the dark gloomy "all you want is grey for me" side.

We also then got the mashup of it's nice to have a friend x dorothea when Taylor chose to sing "It's nice to have dorothea" as in it's nice to have a friend of dorothy! Dorothea being Karlie.

So flash forward, if you go to Taylor's instagram she has developed a consistent pattern where for the entire left side of her posts she is dressed in yellow. Not only that, but she is getting closer and closer in distance as the posts continue. All of this currently leading up to her pinned where she is holding the screaming color book, and the TTPD all you want is grey for me vinyl.

This is seemingly a direct reference to the Karma friend of dorothy visual. (Which btw in the MV is depicted as a book with 2 sides)

The purpose? Because at the end of the yellow brick road is the Wizard, where dreams come true. But as we know in the movie, the Wizard is a facade. And the curtain gets pulled revealing the truth....

So it is believed that Taylor is pointing to the fact that she is nearing the end of her Brand facade. And she is going to pull the curtain, revealing everything, and step into the daylight emerging as Taylor the person only!

In short, the yellow brick road is the road to her true freedom. And she is letting us know that she is almost done walking it!!!!

I’m aware this may not be an original thought but I haven’t seen it mentioned so if you have… my apologies!

So I was listening to Down Bad, and along with “like I lost my twin” and “leaving me safe and stranded” I spotted the most obvious line that the song is about a woman!

Did you take all my old clothes?

Why would a man take a woman’s clothes? They wouldn’t! Men don’t borrow their girlfriend’s clothes or share wardrobes, but you know who does? Other women!! Anyway, that’s my ramblings!

Peace out ✌️

this sounds like a gaylor made up thing but it’s actually because taylor is the biggest gaylor herself damn

So the tea I have collected...

Scooter Braun could not purchase BMR on his own. He received financial backing from Ithaca Holdings LLC, which is backed by the Carlyle Group. The Carlyle Group is involved with the shady Kushner family - they helped bail out the Kushner 666 building by purchasing $525 million of retail space (this is no small amount of money). So think... why would Scooter Braun (manager of pop icons Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande) and the Carlyle Group be interested in acquiring a Country music label? The timing of the deal is very important. See evidence:

Rumors had been abound within the Kaylor fandom that Taylor was attending the NYC Pride event on June 30th, and possibly even coming out of the closet then. We expected to see the CSiriano dress make its appearance there, as the designer has suggested in his NYCPride tags- and we were almost positive that Taylor was going to be the one adorned in the rainbow tulle dress. Plus there was the Spade message telling us that she was going to bloom in June. So then, why was Billy Porter wearing the dress, which curiously has a mesh fabric that would be considered a nude tone for light-skinned individuals. Wouldn’t a designer like CSiriano have been carefully picking out these kinds of details? A sheer panel is meant to give the appearance of a lack of textile. Putting a light flesh tone mesh on a proud black man seems counter-intuitive. Unless the dress had originally been designed for Taylor Swift (like CSiriano had essentially confirmed through his instagram likes) and Taylor had to back out of the Sunday plans last minute and decided to give the dress to Billy so that CSiriano’s efforts would not go to waste. See evidence:

Scooter Braun (most likely influenced by the Kushners, and possibly Joshua Kushner himself) was trying to prevent the PR disaster that “Sunshine on the street at the parade” would have caused Joshua Kushner, and so the Kushners were able to get the Carlyle Group to help fund the disgusting BMR acquisition that shook up Taylor’s plans for Sunday.

Despite Scooter being Karlie Kloss’s manager, his actions have been proven over the years to be in favor of Joshua Kushner’s public image rather than Karlie’s. He is an asshole who bragged on his Instagram story about “buying Taylor Swift”. See evidence:

So The Tea I Have Collected...

Where does Scott fall into all of this? You can imagine that if people found out that he had recommended (or more likely, forced) the closeting of Taylor Swift, they would be coming for him and BMR. Keeping Taylor Swift in the closet this Sunday was in his favor as well.

Welcome to the House of Cards.

The notion that Taylor doesn't like gaylors is so funny to me. We're truly the biggest nerds in this fandom and you cannot convince me she isn't into that. Who else is out here reading Untamed and Dickinson and analysing The Wizard of Oz and The Truman Show and learning so much about queer history and listening to Dusty Springfield, Joni Mitchell, Carly Simon, James Taylor and countless of other artists, analysing their lyrics, making connections, and all that not just because of her, but because we're truly in it now. And whether the connections we're seeing are real is truly anyone's guess, but I don't think it matters so much as the act of engaging in these artists' works, really diving in there, attempting to understand and actually SEE them and what they've been trying to say. You cannot honestly believe that this type of shit isn't EXACTLY what Taylor would want us to be doing.
