“And so I was out of the oven//And into the microwave//Out of the slammer and into a tidal wave” is actually the key to understanding the entire album and why it’s unclear which song is about which man

the amount of times taylor was promised a future with marriage and kids, from a older man who is societally at that stage in life (but she wasn’t good enough), to someone who wanted it so bad (in the wrong way) that he almost trapped her, to someone she grew up with for years and thought would love to be with her but that wasn’t true, to someone who came back in her life for a few weeks and promised her everything at her lowest and then ghosted her… built and broken down from the same high, promised what she wants the most and had it taken away repeatedly, and that leading into the prophecy and how she is fated to be left alone forever is just heartbreaking. i think one of the things i feel most in TTPD is resentment of these men making false promises, her hating herself because she always believes them and goes crazy when they leave.

i don't know about anyone else, but the tortured poets department has made me like taylor swift more. i love the complexity of being human. it makes me feel seen in some way. i don't know how to articulate what I'm trying to say properly

"and so i was out of the oven into the microwave" pulls from the phrase "out of the frying pan into the fire," which describes jumping from one bad situation into a worse one (because you go from cooking in a pan to literally throwing it in the fire.) moving on from something that took its time (oven) straight into a situation that nuked it to get the same result, but faster, and worse.
