I think thanking DP was sincere but also honoring someone who is no longer with us with a showgirl/songwriting legacy is poignant after the video we just watched 🪦 that’s a real legacy to leave. “Fake” persona, “real” legacy…to leave

In Rebecca, the narrator constructs a story about who Rebecca was based on artifacts in the house she “haunted.”when she learns the real story, she learns her husband was the murderer, and their relationship was not the love story she made up in her head.

It was a little ghost dog, with a faint little bark, And a jack-o'-lantern nose that glowed in the dark. It was Jack's dog, Zero, the best friend he had, But Jack hardly noticed, which made Zero sad.

An english teacher teaches you how to read subtext because the world has subtext. They teach you to question the surface story because reading beneath the surface matters beyond the books you read in class. The teacher isn’t condescending, they want the student to “learn to see” the world.

In The Sixth Sense, Cole reveals early that dead people don’t know they’re dead, so the ending isn’t a twist, per se. It’s a lesson Malcolm needs to learn, despite clues hiding in plain sight. Taylor is playing a similar role to Cole, except she’s teaching her audience how to read subtext.

The Truman show: “what if the world literally did revolve around one person…and everyone actually was lying to him?” Taylor’s version: “what if the world literally did revolve around one person 😉…and she actually was lying to everyone?”

When you aren’t true to yourself, you are a sell out (traitor). You compromise your integrity for money (trader). Nothing good can come out of performing a fake relationship, because you are abandoning your true self…and “traders” or “sellouts” never win.

Law & Order was inspired by the old Perry Mason (and dragnet). Raymond Burr won multiple Emmy’s for Perry Mason. His biography is called “Hiding in Plain Sight” as he was a closeted gay man upholding a story about his fake marriage youtu.be/1Q1POhPBiL8

This is from the night she performed love story and gasoline with haim and I think such a great example of how she communicates. "Everything is copy" means that all personal experiences are fair game to be used as material for writing. (Popularized by Nora Ephron) Hence the “copycat” song

This isn’t an existing term but poetically as a homophone for kaleidoscope “Collide of scope” Could be the moment when two separate fields of vision intersect, allowing multiple truths or identities to exist in the same frame or come together. 1 narrative viewed through a broader lens

I knew you. Through the daze of the blades of grass in summer moving through a carefully maintained public landscape…one that appears natural like a lawn, but is actually composed of countless deliberate, sharp "blades” that are “grassing” on you

A Weather Man could be called a “Whether Prophet” A whether prophet predicts whether things happen. So a forecast can predict profit. A profit is the gain itself, and prophet predicts future events. It’s a “prophecy”…a profitable story, or a “prophet”able story, because it is pre-written.

When I ‘meet the band’ they ask do you have a man? ‘Meet the band’ as a phrase that means getting married, because “meeting the band” means putting a wedding band on your finger. “And by the way I’m going OUT tonight” Because “BY THE WAY” is the lyric she used to replace “you’re gay” in PTB

In Batman Forever one of the riddles is “we’re five little items of an everyday sort you’ll find us all in a tennis court” and the answer is VOWels (a,e,i,o,u) So if the tennis court is covered up, those are CONsonants. And “forever” is the sweetest CONsonant, or, agreement.

BS. A song about writing a name. 📝 (Constructing a persona and story) IKIIKY. A song about recognizing the person behind the facade 👀 Together, a promise to “right” your name. To come back and expose the facade after you take it Way Too Far for So Long. Man, it’s been a Wile

I just learned that the car the couple drives away in after a wedding is called a “getaway car.” Interesting to think about the story of Getaway Car as leaving a wedding with a Just Married sign and then switching to the Other side.

I hear Ruin the Friendship as a poem about The Kiss of Death The Last kiss. “ruining” her image and the relationship between her and her “friends” (fans) The 50 cent song (imo) makes sense as a reference to Tony Soprano playing “Don’t Stop Beleivin” on the jukebox in the series finale.

Speaking of Drag terms and Ru Paul, a “read” is seeing through a facade/understanding someone exposing a truth “Loving him was read” loving him was interpreted loving him was seen through. And dear “reader” I prefer hiding in plain sight.

Laundry tip! Lingerie is considered “delicate” clothing. It’s for hiding vulnerable parts of yourself that you will eventually reveal. You should wash it on the delicate cycle so that there is “no spin” otherwise it will fall apart.

Thinking about corners as a place where you are trapped, but also as a breaking point. The Spotify cover for BTR is glass shattering, and RWYLM the camera turns as she sits in the corner. 🧵
