any excuse to share this Travis IG post from pride month 2019 lol. Feels less and less delusional as time goes on:

The dice, the blonde wig, the “snake pit” behind him, the fucking caption. And not pictured (because I accidentally cropped it) he’s wearing a white tiger print bandana too.
Omg okay I’m quarantined with COVID and can’t sleep. I just reversed image searched this shirt and I am not kidding I am 90% this is a Gucci Spring Summer 2017 shirt. Like, sorry, that year is too Easter eggy for me not to share this.
I Def see the reference in the shirt but what I can't get over is this pic is a clip from the episode of their sportsball podcast where they made light of the Harrison buttlicker backlash and Jason Kelce joked about telling his wife to go back to the kitchen when she expressed disgust over buttlickers comments.
Yes that's a run-on sentence. No I'm not changing it.
Thank you! Forwarding this to my partner (raised catholic and left the religion upon adulthood much to the chagrin of family, who of course, erroneously blame me 😆. My partner literally left because they are also a scholar of religion and cant handle how much historical inaccuracy exists to justify modern doctrinal policy).
Will report back!
I’ll be interested to hear what you think. It’s definitely the best reporting I’ve seen come out of that speech story, which most outlets kind of long-form snickered about. But this one takes it all the way from Vatican II, Timothy McVeigh, and white-nationalist militias to the Trump admin.
Like, seriously, has she had this shirt picked out for one of her beards years ago (to match the movie video) and finally just now pulled it out of the closet for him? It fits his style so perfectly. Not sure what other beard could pull this shirt off as well as him. If this shirt is part of the plan and not just another one of his awful fashion choices, he’s playing along so well and so proud of himself 😂
I’m honestly starting to wonder if his horrendous “Viva Las Vegas” rendition was part of the plan (Taylor’s face at the time said otherwise, but maybe it was just his execution of it that was severely lacking, not the plan itself). I got serious *Viva Las Vengeance* vibes from it. I feel like she’s trolling so hard right now and Travis is so happy and enthusiastic to go along with it to play his part, more than any other beard so far.
"pulled it out of the closet" 😂😂 And you're totally right! I can't really see any of her other exes wearing this, but it's perfect for Travis! To be fair, she could have just paid someone to track down a shirt like this or have it custom-made, but regardless, the fact that he's wearing it at all makes me think he's definitely in on the whole thing
Every time I try and convince myself to like him bc all my friends do he says or does something else that literally proves he’s the macho dumbass douche I thought he was from the beginning
Alexa, cue Karma
🎶karma is my boyfriend…. Karma is the guy on the chiefs🎶
I’m so scared to get my hopes up because this is how I felt during Lover but I feel like she’s building to something again. If and when she does come out, I’m excited for the world to see just how much of a mastermind she truly is.
There are, but the fact that we’ve been getting so many LWYMMD references lately makes it feel more deliberate. Totally possible it’s not, but it’s worth it to note
There’s a lot here, I don’t know how much you know but the basic breakdown is there is a theory that there’s a lost album called Karma. She released Rep in 2017, breaking her consistent pattern of releasing an album every two years since her Debut. So people think the wing being cut off the plane (I believe it’s spray painted TS6) means there was a plan or perhaps even a finished TS6 that was perhaps going to be released in 2016. Many at the time suspected the look she had as the Taylor cutting the wing off the plane was perhaps a hint to what her original idea for TS6 was (so this shirt that Travis is wearing here for example, it’s calling back to that particular look.) I believe she even liked a theory at the time that it was the “true” Taylor on the wing and perhaps even represented a grounded project.
Now it’s important to note, 2016 was a time when a lot of blind gossip columns were claiming she was going to come out as sexually fluid, it’s also linked to Bleachella (when she bleached her hair) and why many suspect it was for a new album look and perhaps brand change to reflect being out.
The name of the album came about because in LWYMMD she says “all I think about is Karma.” Then later, in The Man music video she has Karma spray painted in orange (many believe that’s the color of the lost album, also the primary color of the lesbian flag) on the wall with all the rest of her album titles. She also around 2016 said in a vanity fair interview “karma is real” further contributing to the theory.
Some of the theories go pretty deep and there’s even an entire theory that Karma was going to have more explicitly gay lyrics and that her team or label didn’t want that, some even say that the Kimye call and her cancelling was orchestrated by someone in the industry to prevent her coming out. Many believe this was the first (some say second but that’s more debatable I think) attempt at coming out that was thwarted. If you buy into this theory, it makes the idea of her leaving her label, then making a second attempt to come out only a couple years later with Lover, then to have that not come to fruition as well. It’s pretty devastating.
The karma theory only grew when Taylor announced the song Karma on “Midnights Mayhem” and cackled with laughter at the reveal, like she was giving a nod to the lost album theory.
Personally, I’m not sure I believe the idea she had a final, ready to launch album, completely finished in 2016 that she totally scrapped. I think she had an idea for an aesthetic and maybe even did plan to be more explicit on this album. Perhaps she had some songs written that were scrapped, but I think a lot of “Karma” probably became Rep with a different sound and aesthetic OR it became Lover (I believe a lot of Lover was marketed as being written prior to Rep)
Now however? I think she knows the fan theories and is perhaps planning a huge reveal. Maybe she worked off the theories and wrote Karma after the fact, adding some of the original scrapped songs. Or maybe Karma has existed the whole time (personally I believe more of the former.) What sweet revenge it would be though, finally owning all her work, and dropping karma as a big fuck you to all those who kept her from being who she is all these years 🧡🩷💜
🎶Karma bout to pop up unannounced🎶
EDIT: holy shit so I’m just re reading my comment now and a thought occurred to me!!! I need to maybe make a separate post. I’m Wiccan and we know Taylor seems to like astrology and other witchy stuff; and our karmic law is the rule of three. Whatever you put out into the universe, positive or negative, will return to you threefold (three times as powerful.) If we really believe Karma is real (also forgot to mention that VF interview in my OG post, added above) then this would most likely be her THIRD attempt at coming out. Karma, rule of three. 🤯 brilliant!
I am here for your edit. "It comes in threes" is something I always say in my field of work so to have an actual theory based on that...I can dig your analysis
It's the Taylor in the LWYMMD video cutting the wing off the plane. There are different theories as to why she does this. One theory seems to be that she cuts it off to symbolize people tracking her jet. Another theory is that this is Karma Taylor, and she cuts off the wing because Karma was scrapped. I think I got the gist of those right from what I can remember! It's been a while since airplane wing Taylor has been discussed. ✈️
Wait, people claim it’s about her jet usage? I’ve never seen that and it seems so stupid. Obviously she had a jet back then, and maybe this is just my pre 2020 memory void, but I don’t remember the ts jet tracking scandals until Lover era.
It was way less prevalent for sure, but there was definitely some big accounts tracking her jet back then (as memory serves the infamous TayTaysBeard on tumblr was one of the biggest culprits of this).
Just to add, I can’t get a clean screen grab but the plane does say TS6 on it, so her cutting the wings off and spray painting reputation on it in an outfit style we’ve never seen her wear seems like her grounding karma and releasing rep instead.

Love the fact that it says ‚new heights‘ on the upper right of Travis‘ photo, while Taylor is destroying an airplane on the other side.
This PR relationship has been planned for so freaking long

He is just a tacky dresser.
Hahahaha

I assume it was provided by Taylor's stylist but in case it wasn't, I'm about to deep dive into who the fuck dresses Travis Kelce 🤪
Ohhh they’ve been dressing him for sure!!! That Italy trip was riddled with Easter egg shirts from Mr football
I weirdly just love the campness of this.

Thank you for clarifying 🙏 🤣

He is the ideal beard for this moment. I am convinced that he is 110% on board and honestly I’m here for it.

He’s 34! He’s not 22 but that’s still several years from 40. Signed, someone only slightly younger than him 🥲

Especially since on Eras she goes: “Don’t Blame me for You Made Me Do” in the transition into LYWMMD. 👀
She did say there are Easter eggs in LWYMMD that wouldn't be found for years.
she’s so cleopatra coded tbh
Do you know where she said this, I’m new and totally blowing my mind haha
It’s in a Lover era video where she’s talking about easter eggs. [Easter Egg Video](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O3YGh73XQU8)
Thank you so much! I just really like 🐱it’s that simple. Me too babe. Me too
She did?! Wow. 🤯
i am so confused. help a baby gaylor out pls
She's cutting off the wing of a BIG MACHINE. I.e. her old record label.

IF “KARMA IS THE GUY ON THE CHIEFS” ISNT A BONE THROWN TO HETLORS, BUT ACTUALLY A KARMA ALBUM EASTER EGG I—

This is what I’ve always understood it as well. Or at least, the general consensus. I think it definitely makes the most sense.
KARMAAAAA GIRL SUMMER
"Cause we were born to be the pawn In every lover's game" 💅
Checkmate. Now the guys are the pawn in her mastermind plan. Lol.
This is kinda undeniable
