I said I would make a running thread of all the possible lyrical references (mostly 80s through early 2000s) on the life of a showgirl but I have no organization system for it so I am just going to info dump it here in no particular order ⬇️

Purple Rain was the most pivotal song in the finale of stranger things when the heroine of the show sacrifices herself to save her friends and she says goodbye to her lover.

@treepaineburner.bsky.social m ordered the limited edition stranger things creel house - haunted house that flips over to be a normal one - and it came with a free ‘year of the horse’ set 🙃 (also the robin figure is holding a brick 🏳️‍🌈 f the scene where she breaks the stained glass rose widow)

This is your reminder that it is entirely possible to engage with Taylor swift stuff in a way that serves you as you fight against facism. Walking away is always valid, but it is not an inherently more moral choice This is abt propaganda, & Taylor swift is one of the best narrative shapers around

who’s the BADdest IN the land? 🌋 (They say I did something bad) whos the BADDEST ON the land? 🛬 (touch down, cut the amateurs) Taylor wore the touch down necklace with Dakota the day she got her masters back. At Tea Time 🫖Everybody agrees. The Anti-hero killed her but it also got her kids back😭

@gaylorologylo.bsky.social i swear im not stalking you, bluesky keeps showing me your posts and im yappy tonight i guess 😭🫣

who had the recent post abt 8/30? i saw it last night and i can’t find it

taylor literally mentions “sports rivalries” when talking to aaron during the father’s day show i’m always returning to heated rivalries has re-activated the former larries in HUGE numbers! HS4 is coming shortly & louis’ new record “how did i get here?” drops on 1/23 (the first single was lemonade)

never been more sure

just realized harry potters parents are named james and lily - and the way taylor ruffles her own hair is exactly as the book describes james doing to his

finally got my hands on the new gluten free cheese it’s! that was my safe food for my entire life until i developed an anaphylactic wheat allergy 5 years ago i ate an entire box in one day and i don’t have a single regret

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

this drives me crazy bc john didn’t direct say anything. cameron crowe did (also almost famous, which she’s directly referenced). but there is another movie that had the male lead stand outside of the window playing music on speakers: easy a the rest of the scene is inspired by ‘can’t buy me love’

Something that has been bothering me about the discourse around the Epstein Files is how many memes, jokes, and AI edits I've seen. This is unfortunately common with high-profile cases involving abuse, and it only serves to normalize abuse and harm victims further. spitfirenews.com/p/epstein-fi...

IT'S DAZZLE CAMOUFLAGE!!!!! the bathroom tiles in 'The Fate of Ophelia' mv and the pillow in 'Rising Star' mv by Boys24 are in a pattern of dazzle camouflage!!!!!!!!!!

888 days from the end of harry’s tour on tour (his last music related move) to the posts yesterday. three. eight. 🫠 include the end date and you get 127 weeks.

Pro-wrestling legend Mick Foley announced this morning that he's parting ways with WWE over the organization's "close relationship with Donald Trump," saying the president's "incredibly cruel comments in the wake of Rob Reiner’s death is the final straw for me."

i’ve always said that performance artlor isn’t necessarily dependent on gaylor but omfggg this video is the first time i’ve ever seen it on a large scale. it’s basically describing performance artlor through a maylor lens & ppl are eating. it. up. (anything but gay, amirite?) link ⬇️

i just saw this magnet at 5 below

FJSKSLSLAJDKA i *just* made a video yesterday abt the speak now dress and how it shifts from purple to blue just like the glitter & how she’s under a young tree there but in evermore eras she’s in the roots of a giant oak im — 🫠

Has anyone noticed a difference in vocals between the OG Eras movie and the Final Show? I have a degree in music with a primary instrument of voice, so I am very familiar with voice technique, etc. That being said, I often hear or pick up on things that a casual listener may not always notice. 1/5

soooo the cassandra x mad woman x IDSB performance 11/22/24 (also TN timeline start day) was 55 (🖐️🖐️) weeks exactly before the mysterious new IDSB (& delicate) lyrics popped up on 12/12/25 😅 and jan just posted this an hour ago. nbd probably, right?

zootopia: fox & rabbit team up for the “hustle” aka going undercover at an annual Gala, help a snake (who ends up wrapped in a red scarf) recover a journal that contains weather related secrets hidden by her grandmother in a music box, buried under a lit watchtower in the snow by an evil rich family

at the movies, on march 6 pixar is releasing a film called hoppers, abt the animals organizing to overtake the humans bc hey keep stealing their land hahahaa

went live for 8.5 hours lmao 🫠 everything is insane and i’m overwhelmed

abt to go live on tiktok, figured out how to split screen so we are gonna go through my copious amt of research - might just lock in and stay on through the premieres 😬 was going to share to youtube live but idk how to do that yet 🥴 come back to tiktok for ONE night and hang w me!

On this day in 2001, Britney Spears’ song “Overprotected” was released as a single for her third studio album “Britney.” The second music video, which was released later to promote the Dark Child Remix, was filmed in the same Biltmore hotel as Taylor’s “Delicate” music video. 🩵

going live for colbert later, if anyone wants to join to be on the actual live lmk! otherwise come hang out out in the comments if you’re up!

stranger things stranger things stranger things

i haven’t been on socials much other than tiktok but i’m seeing that some ppl aren’t clocking that this is the third step of the main event (masters, showgirl, doc…) there are dominos falling alllll around us! (like SOTB) in every fandom, business entertainment, politics, astrologically, metoo/SA

2190 days from the beginning of the doc ✅

posted by disney+ last week in re: to the new alice storyline in stranger things starring millie bobby brown ✅

🧵 well, this is fascinating! basically the same set 👀 'Do It Like This' by P1Harmony (1/2022) 'The Fate of Ophelia' by Taylor Swift (10/2025)

if you haven’t seen the doc yet - go watch! taylor mentioned 50 cent in showgirl for a reason

she wrote “castle walls” for diddy and then “coming home” w jay z & j cole for TI but they swapped songs & diddy ended up recording it w diddy dirty money - which included dawn, who is one of his main accusers. it also ft vocals f cassie, his ex gf.

just realized people don’t know his lore. he just testified against diddy bc his car was firebombed back in the day when he dated cassie for a short time. he’s v deeply connected to all of the rap side of this

biggie smalls too - super important

SO many 90s music references happening more & more. also i just re-read “how music became free” and a couple months ago re-watched the defiant ones and all of the links to hip hop/ the 90s / diddy / interscope / biggie / eminem / streaming / jay z etc etc are soo important to the history of it all

100% it also ties in with the 90s and gangsta rap / nine inch nails / eminem all popping off, backed by interscope and jimmy iovine (who also threw a winter themed party on taylor’s bday in 2015) throughout the intense public backlash which then connects to the apple letter, streaming and pirating

it’s hypocritical. period. your faves surround themselves with these people IRL lmao supporting them (and their silence) but condemning the art which is made for outcasts, queer people & victims to encourage banding together, self acceptance & standing in your own power against evil mkay 👌🏻

JADE just announced That’s Showbiz Baby: The Encore!!

👇🏻 full detailed recap of the 4 first seasons if you don’t have time to watch them all & want to start season 5 i try never to say things definitively but this *is* what we have been waiting for, to tie all of this together. if you’ve been following the NR journey, pls DO NOT miss this! IT. IS. KEY.

who’s been watching? bc i’m losing my mind no spoilers but ofc they started out w a flashback on 11/12/83 (and a very clear allegory of SA to a child), queer exploration + 100 NR references in the first episode alone

“The most meaningful relationship I've ever had started with a man saying he was butthurt” = “I started dating my fiancé when he said he’s gay”….?! butthurt: 1st recorded in a graffiti forum (1996) w/ an English teacher plea likened to government submission: “for you…bad grammar / for some…culture”

the hand you can’t see does the sign for 7. she does it twice in the original carousel
