Denver @Broncos in next year’s Super Bowl. Calling it.

Question for the culture: Por que a Taylor Swift é constante alvo de desmerecimento sempre que mencionada junto a artistas como The Beatles e Michael Jackson na mesma sentença? É por que ela é contemporânea ou por que ela é mulher? Literalmente essa mulher tem tantos recordes quanto eles, tanto impacto cultural quanto eles COMO OUSA? TAYLOR SWIFT NÃO TEM IMPACTO CULTURAL O que é impacto cultural? Influenciar uma geração de artistas talvez seja, queiram vocês ou não. Ser a referência principal na sua indústria talvez seja, queiram vocês ou não. Impactar mulheres de idades diferentes e a forma como elas enxergam emocionalmente suas relações pasmém TALVEZ seja impacto cultural. Gerar mudanças, assim como The Beatles e Michael Jackson fizeram, na indústria e em como a música é consumida, TALVEZ seja fenomenal pra caramba. Salvar lojas de vendas de vinis da falência, ressuscitar a venda dos físicos, colocar música de 10 minutos no topo dos charts, fazer seus álbuns serem consumidos por completo, e um dos feitos mais surpreendentes... CRIAR e EXECUTAR uma turnê que gerou impacto econômico significativo em TODAS as cidades pela qual passou, com doações aos bancos municipais de alimentos, salários históricos para seus funcionários, 2 BILHÕES DE DÓLARES em faturamento, algo nunca visto antes em nenhuma turnê de algum artista da HISTÓRIA, inclusive os homens mencionados. Mudar a vida de MILHÕES de fãs, crianças, adultos, que foram na The Eras Tour, fazer as pessoas ocuparem uma montanha inteira para assistir o show de fora do estádio... Pasmém, talvez tudo isso seja impacto cultural pra caralho. E fazer tudo isso enquanto ainda está no auge de sua carreira, jovem e performando? Não tirando o mérito de outras lendas da música, mas o fato dela ter 20 anos de carreira ativos e ser essa monstruosidade de legado e sucesso, é simplesmente algo nunca visto antes, pois ninguém, na história da arte musical, conseguiu conquistar tanto, em tantas áreas diferentes do sucesso, enquanto ainda estava atuando de forma significativa no ramo. Aonde mais ela pode ir? É uma pergunta louca de se fazer, pois ela não parou, nem está perto de parar. Taylor Swift é surreal, parte de seu legado é manchado por ser contemporânea, parte é manchado por ser mulher, o mundo não digere bem, como ela mesma diz, "If I was a man, I'd be THE MAN". Mas ignorar essa loucura que é o impacto e a carreira dessa artista que ainda está entre nós, é não ser um bom admirador da arte musical e indústria do entretenimento. É não apreciar a indústria da música. Taylor Swift você é O legado, você é fenomenal, surreal, e as pessoas não deveriam ter que esperar você sumir da cena pra reconhecer isso, deveriam engolir o próprio orgulho, hate, machismo e bias pelo anti-moderno, pra dar o devido e alto valor ao que você foi e é capaz de fazer, junto com sua equipe, colaboradores e fãs. Um extraordinário acontecimento na história da música e um adorável acontecimento para a arte humana. Obrigado queen.

💬| Paul McCartney on whether he has any advice for Taylor Swift "You do see the parallel, the amount of worldwide fame that Taylor has and we [The Beatles] had... I don't think she needs any advice to tell you the truth."

What Women Want Part 2 I’m here for it

You guys are laughing, but if he manages to cure endometriosis—a women’s disease that has seen virtually no advancements since the cave ages and affects a huge portion of the world purely because he’s in love—it would be extremely beautiful and meaningful.

she’s the perfect argument against the buccal fat removal trend because she’s proof that full cheeks keep you looking youthful (at 37)...

Nobody. Normal. Waiting for @mrbobodenkirk to do a “Nowhere” or “Nothing.”

My opinion on Jaxson Dart

You have got to be kidding me.

This guy’s f*cking weird & he’s weird for sharing this incredibly intimate photo & information about his wife BUT (if she consented to it being shared), I hope this helps more people understand endo.

Trump uses the “a lot of people don’t know…” in the same way that influencers use the “a lot of you have asked…”

Because highly intelligent people are at higher risk for psychological disorders. Ignorance literally is bliss.

You are *mostly* free to say whatever you want. You are not free from the social consequences of saying whatever you want. Your actions have consequences.

a wedding bigger than the royal wedding because even royals are hoping for an invitation, oh tay

Me after devouring 5lbs of seasoned crawfish yesterday

Anyways— I would sink a THOUSAND ships for her.

The same people praising Dart for supporting Trump are in the comments telling Abdul to shut up and focus on football. You can't make this shit up. And that's exactly the problem.

Cooking brings me no joy. Having to try to multitask & tidy up as I go stresses me tf out. I aggressively dislike it. Thank god my saint of a hubby enjoys it/ doesn’t actively dislike it. & I try to balance it out by doing dishes/ entertaining baby while he cooks.

It was a Monday in early August 2023. The exhausted truck drivers of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour thought they were heading to a routine production meeting before the Los Angeles shows. They had no idea what was coming. Scott Swift walked in. Taylor's father didn't say much—he just began handing out envelopes. When the drivers finally peeked inside, some thought the check said $1,000. Others read $10,000. The third driver stared at his and said out loud: "This has to be a joke." It wasn't. $100,000. Each driver. Nearly 50 of them. The industry standard bonus from the biggest stars? $5,000 to $10,000. Taylor had given them more than ten times that. But here's what made it matter most: these drivers weren't wealthy. They lived in truck cabs. They hadn't seen their families in 24 weeks. They were people who would never own homes—until now. Until that envelope. That moment of shock and tears? It was just the beginning. Across the entire Eras Tour, Taylor quietly handed out $197 million in bonuses. The dancers. The band. The riggers. The lighting and sound technicians. The caterers. Every single person who built the show—they got bonuses, handwritten notes, and wax-sealed letters. When dancers opened theirs on camera in her docuseries, they broke down crying. Some couldn't believe she was real. "If the tour grosses more, they get more," she explained simply. These people work hard. They deserve it. But the crew bonuses weren't the only quiet revolution happening. Starting in March 2023, in every city where the tour touched down, a call came to local food banks. Taylor wanted to donate. No press conference. No announcement. No photo op. One donation fed 75,000 meals. Another provided hundreds of thousands of pounds of fresh produce. Across the tour, the total reached millions of meals—possibly more—all delivered in silence. She never posted about a single one. And it wasn't new for her. In March 2020, when the pandemic locked down the world, Taylor scrolled through social media posts from fans who were breaking. A photographer about to lose everything. A person staring down eviction. She sent direct messages with rent money—$3,000 here, $13,000 there. Some fans got enough for months of bills. She read the Washington Post. She noticed the names. She helped. She never announced it. Years later, in October 2025, a two-year-old named Lilah—fighting a cancer so rare that only 58 families in America had ever known it—was filmed by her mother dancing to a Taylor Swift song. Lilah called Taylor her friend. A few days later, the GoFundMe received a $100,000 donation. The note said: "Sending the biggest hug to my friend, Lilah! Love, Taylor." Mike Scherkenbach has worked with the wealthiest people in music. He's seen the bonuses. He's seen the behavior. He's watched billionaires guard their money jealously. What he saw with Taylor was different. The biggest tour in history grossed $2 billion. The artist behind it became a billionaire from her own songwriting. And then she signed her name onto hundreds of envelopes by hand and sent enough money back to the people who built her dream that they cried opening their letters. That isn't strategy. That isn't a publicity stunt. That's what happens when someone, somewhere along the way, remembered what matters.
