Taylor Swift - 1989 (Taylor's Version) + Re-Recordings

Taylor cozying up to Adele to get the tea on her release dates and avoid getting blocked...chess not checkers, ladies.
 
These re-releases feel... a little more chaotic than they need to be? The vinyl delays for Fearless, the premature Red announcement, the changing release dates, the 1989 surprise track drop...

I mean it's nothing compared to most girls actual campaigns but anytime Taylor's roll-outs don't feel meticulous and planned down to the letter I feel disturbances in the force.
 
I've stopped trying to understand what is she doing with the "eras" and just take them as "Taylor's Version era" and take whatever she is releasing whenever it's happening
 
Her wording kind of sounds to me like it's out of her control? But then again, is anything really out of Taylor's control? I'm stoked, don't get me wrong, but this all has been a bit of stressful and disorganized mess and I don't see the logic or larger plan to what they're doing with these re-releases. I've had to stop trying to keep up because it genuinely makes me anxious. Her eras and releases have always been ironclad and meticulously planned Lover aside, for several reasons so the handling of this is especially odd to me. I'm going to assume that it's because there have been road blocks in the process that make it difficult to pull off. Either way, I kind of hope she scales back on the Easter eggs and scavenger hunts because we're only two albums in and it's already exhausting and overwhelming.
 
I know but it just seems weird to mention it in the next sentence. I always think there’s more to it when she says stuff like that.
It means she’s going to jump ahead and release her 13th album at the stroke of midnight. These Easter eggs, I tell you.
