I See A T. Karlie It's Too Early For This 😭

Just a couple of gals wearing matching watches (for multiple months now) and pinky rings, released on the same day.

Nothing to see here.

unbraiding: start with Begin Again

Let me begin this by saying it took me a long time to put this out because I wanted to respect various muse timelines, etc. But I also realized I wanted to get to the truth, or almost the truth since only Taylor knows.

These are based on interviews, Taylor's journal entries, music video/s, and also compared notes to other fandoms like Gleeks and took a look at Liz's lyrics and social media posts.

I start with Begin Again because it is one of the music videos we have that has irrefutable easter egg/proof:

Car plate 11 EZK 92

*why i saw it's not a coincidence? aside from the obvious initials PLUS birth year and car brand, this is not how an EU or French car plate looks like. If it was the correct format I would have thought it can be a coincidence.

2. Brand and model - so when i was looking at the MV for the 83rd time, I saw that the car looked familiar and looked at Karlie's post on the same year and it was indeed the same brand. BUt further looking into both cars made me realize they were the same model just different years (1 year apart)

3. looking at the secret message it seemed quite clear

4. And then we look at the lyrics and maybe she laughed with either Liz or Dianna behind the scenes but I could not find similar photos of them laughing like a little kid. This was also written before meeting Dianna.

I am also bound to believe that the other person was Liz because of her lyrics (H8U)

5. Was also bothered by the heels line because we know/saw she was wearing lots of heels around Karlie, who probably did not care because she was tall enough. True enough, the left shows Taylor with Liz/Dianna and she normally wears flats or 1-2 inc heels.

6. I think the person who would assume they had the most James Taylor collection would be the one named after Carly Simon (his ex-wife), but of course there's someone named after James himself.

7. this one is not based on evidence but just lyric parallels and gay guts, we see how Karlie is with her eg shielding her from paparazzi by moving chairs, etc

Taylor on Begin Again "I knew I wanted to bookend the album with ’State of Grace’ and ‘Begin Again’ because they’re inspired by the same person who inspired a few songs on the record" It's a song about going through a heartbreak (he) and meeting someone new (you).

The way Karlie doesn’t bat an eye because holding hands is just something that they do. And Taylor is just so damn happy and proud. 😭

Robin is for Robyn , Blake & Ryan’s last child, named after Blake’s sister. Taylor is the child’s godmother , and as you know Taylor named all the other Reynolds children in Betty. Little nod to Aaron as well and a misdirection - has 0 to do with Karlie’s children

Again, I ask, how does this pertain to someone else’s children? What secret?

You know what I think? Taylor and Karlie would have been out together a LONG time ago if it wasn’t for her father/team/label. Especially with kissgate. She was so, so happy that night. Drunk, yes. But free. And if her team wasn’t such assholes, they would have just let them be. Let them continue on, showing the world the truth.

She regrets not fighting harder. She regrets that THEY took Karlie away from her publicly. And maybe the girls did think it was worth going into a love blackout for a while, especially after the election. Maybe that was their new normal so that they could grow their family in peace. But it came at a cost. Taylor hates what she has to do to hide it, to entertain the fans that refuse to see what she’s been SCREAMING.

So, now, they made this decision to keep giving hint after hint, Easter egg after Easter egg. They’re not that secretive. It probably makes them so happy to be able to do that for themselves and the tiny corner of this fandom that sees them. So, to protect that against the masses, there has to be a showmanship distraction, even if it kills her soul. Because her fans have shown time and time and time again, they only look at the very very surface level of what she’s showing. Not listening to what she’s actually saying.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but Blondie is making fun of you because you listen to the media more than you pay attention to what she’s actually saying which is why you don’t know she’s making fun of you :) ok have a nice day!

Oh, Tina knows exactly what’s up. 😏😂

Oh wow I had only seen this once but watching it again… they’re so cute!

Your past and mine are parallel lines / Stars all aligned and they intertwined✨

Renaissance Story from an Elder

In 2022, over dinner chatting about music, a good girlfriend casually dropped “have you heard of Gaylor and that one theory is that Reputation is actually about Karlie Kloss?” Record scratch- What?! 🤯I need to know more as this did not line up with what I had thought.

After departing dinner, late into the night I dove into her suggested podcasts, PowerPoints, and blogs. I fell hard and fast through the rabbit hole! 🐇🕳️!

Now I hate to admit this but I had gone through life just casually listening to music, not really reading and analyzing lyrics, themes or parallels in an artists discography. I was bad at remembering lyrics, often singing the wrong words, so I just never dug past the surface….until my 👀 came upon ALL OF THIS on Kaylor Tumbler!

As a former lurker of a few of your beautiful Kaylor blogs, in 2023 I felt the need to go off anon in order to “heart” just about every post I saw and contribute to the konversations.

Never in my life, would I have thought I’d find a such a welcoming, smart, witty, beautiful niche community on Tumbler (I didn’t even know what this site was until I fell down in the 🐇🕳️)

Still with reading?! Great, now the most beautiful part 🌈!

Through all this deep dive into Kaylor history and current Kaylor, bearding, learning so much about queer flagging, queer history & cultural references and starting to listen, really listen, to more queer artists, IG algorithms doing their thang, seeing so many representations of the LGBTQIA community, I had some honest conversations with myself and finally admitted that I was not 100% straight.

Look I had some fun in my 20’s and there were many alcohol-infused situations that sober me would chalk up to being under the influence and moved on with hetero life.

After going through a few months of a 2023 sober-curious journey, simultaneously while Kaylor’ing, I just knew I couldn’t explain away some resurfaced 🌈 feelings. I needed to be honest with myself and my spouse of 17 years, that I am beautiful bi. 🌈

I haven’t lost any love or attraction to my husband at all and this vulnerable realization has only made our relationship stronger. He is so supportive and I am so thankful, what a relief off my mind.

I guess to sum it up, witnessing one of the greatest love stories unfold is truly an honor, like we’re in a secret club.

Kaylor has helped me become a more honest, educated, understanding, and empathetic person! With the deepest gratitude I thank this community! I’m so excited for what may unfold in the coming months & years.

Here to stay and Gay for Tay!
