Today in potential collaborations no one was expecting, fans are spiraling thanks to pictures of Stranger Things star Joe Keery leaving what appears to be a Taylor Swift studio session.

(2) Joe’s Stranger Things costar Sadie Sink is close to Taylor, as we know ~all too well~.

(3) Despite all that ^^^ and the photo caption, it remains very possible that Joe was simply in the studio at the same time as Taylor and everyone is jumping to some serious conclusions.

Either way, I’ll be here reading into literally everything per usual, bye!
