A hand with painted nails holding up passes from the Spotify pop up for The Life of a Showgirl. One looks like a ticket, one is square and one has Taylor on it.

A hand with painted nails holding up passes from the Spotify pop up for The Life of a Showgirl. One looks like a ticket, one is square and one has Taylor on it.

As we step into Taylor's next era, here's your reminder that it's okay to feel joy and celebrate while being aware that there are some really terrible things happening in our world. Hold on to that joy.

Don’t let them dull your sparkle, Showgirls. ✨❤️‍🔥

The background of the graphic is a cloudy sky. Header text reads “What happens to other social programs?” Body text reads: A shutdown threatens the 7 million low-income women and their young children who rely on programs like WIC—the federal supplemental nutrition program for women, infants, and children—which helps them get groceries and health services. If a shutdown goes on for longer than a week, WIC may begin running out of funding. The Swifties for Hope logo is at the bottom

The background of the graphic is a cloudy sky. Header text reads “What happens to federal employees during a shutdown?” Body text reads: As many as 4 million federal employees could be furloughed or asked to work without a paycheck. White House officials have threatened to use the shutdown to identify "non-essential" workers who could then be permanently let go.

Covert narcissism disguised as altruism has led Republican Congressmen and women to a government shutdown.❌

The government will likely shut down at midnight. Instead of working to pass a spending bill, Republican officials are RUNNING from D.C. to go on vacation right now

She organized her group, Win with Black Women, in 2020 because of anger over how the Black women candidates in the running to be Biden's VP were being portrayed in the media. All the familiar tropes—the Jezebel who'd slept her way to the top, the Sapphire who emasculated and disparaged Black men—had been dusted off to smear us, and Jotaka, an activist and founder of a successful Silicon Valley consultancy, decided to mobilize Black women to fight back and rally behind Black women candidates. After that first Zoom call, others contacted Jotaka to ask how to do the same thing. From her mentoring came: Win with Black Men, White Dudes for Harris, White Women: Answer the Call, Comics for Kamala, Deadheads for Kamala, Cat Ladies for Kamala, Cooking for Kamala, Swifties for Kamala, Jewish Women for Kamala Harris, Caregivers for Harris, Republicans for Harris, and dozens more. "I look around at these screens, I look at who's in the room, and this is America..." I said. "This movement is about reminding each other that we have so much more in common than what separates us... Seeing in the face of a stranger, a neighbor."

HONEY The Buzz About Climate Change Climate change is already transforming every region of the country with more frequent and intense extreme weather events, such as droughts that dry up the nectar and pollen that bees need to produce honey and extreme rain that limits the hours that bees could fly to pollinate. Pollinators contribute an estimated $235 billion to $577 billion USD yearly to global agriculture, based on the value of the crops they pollinate. But the Trump administration has dismissed all the scientists and other authors working on the next report at how climate change is affecting the United States. Congress mandated these reports, conducted by the U.S. Global Change Research Program, be produced every four years. Source: CNN; UC Davis Swifties for Hope

WOOD Rescinding Protection of 58 Million Acres of Forest Land The Trump administration is rolling back a landmark conservation rule from the Clinton era that prevents roadbuilding and logging on roughly 58 million acres of federal forest and wildlands. Environmentalists have indicated they'll sue to prevent its reversal and protect the forests in the West and Alaska because wildfires are more likely to occur in forests that have been developed with roads and other infrastructure.

CANCELLED! Corruption and Free Speech "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" was cancelled and "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" was recently pulled off the air indefinitely, both not without controversy. Colbert's cancellation was announced days after CBS parent company Paramount settled a lawsuit with the Trump administration and subsequently merged with Skydance Media. Kimmel's unknown future comes as Nexstar, which operates ABC affiliate stations in many markets, is closing in on its own merger deal that would require FCC approval. Also, Disney owns both ABC and ESPN, and needs the administration's approvalto complete its purchase of the NFL Network. The late night hosts and Trump have long been critics of one another, so the moves have sparked concerns over free speech. Source: Variety Swifties for Hope

ACTUALLY ROMANTIC Reproductive Health Care Under Attack What's actually romantic is fighting for reproductive health care. The Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) is a federal law requiring hospitals to provide stabilizing treatment to all patients in emergency situations, which includes life-saving abortion care. The Trump administration is refusing to defend this law against conflicting, extreme state abortion bans. If you have a severe pregnancy complication in one of the dozen states banning abortion, President Trump has given the hospital emergency room a green light to ignore this federal law.

FATHER FIGURE CDC Team in Charge of Researching IVF Cut President Trump promised to expand access to IVF and predicted that he will be known as the "fertilization president." But his administration eliminated a team at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in charge of researching those fertility treatments when the thousands of federal health agency employees lost their jobs earlier this year. The team was first created in response to a law passed by Congress in the early 1990s to promote transparency in the fertility industry. The team's work provided patients with information to know what they were getting when they went to an IVF clinic and has been used to spot problems and improve health outcomes for both mothers and babies.

A black graphic with orange header text and white body text US Consumers continue to be burdened with Trump’s tariffs. “Consumers in the U.S. have absorbed an estimated 22% of tariff costs through June, but their share will rise to 67%,” according to research by Goldman Sachs. “American businesses have taken around 64% of the hit from tariffs so far, their share will fall to less than 10% as they pass on more of the costs onto consumers”

A black graphic with pink header text and white body text Individuals detained by ICE continue to face inhumane conditions. In the past, cells were used to hold migrants for just a few hours, but amid the Trump’s crackdown, migrants often remain there for days or more than a week. A lawsuit has been filed in New York against inhumane conditions, which include sleeping on the concrete floor or sitting upright, lack of access to legal counsel, and are subjected to a “horrific stench” emanating from toilets.

A black graphic with pink header text and white body text The Supreme Court is considering hearing a case that could overturn Marriage Equality. The case is brought by Kim Davis, the former Kentucky county clerk who was jailed in 2015 after refusing to issue marriage licenses to a gay couple on religious grounds. Legal experts do not consider it to be a strong contender, but the court now has a Conservative majority with three justices appointed by Trump.

A black graphic with orange header text and white body text The Epstein Files still have not been released. Trump regularly promised to release the files while on the campaign trail, but now refuses to release them. Trump was repeatedly photographed with Jeffrey Epstein. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act in July, and despite both Democrat and Republican cosponsors, the bill has not been voted on.

A black graphic with orange header text and white body text Trump has federalized the D.C. police and called in the National Guard. He claims crime has increased, but crime in D.C. is at a 30-year low as of January 2025. This is a distraction tactic and ANOTHER way to show force and intimidate average American citizens. D.C. becoming an official state would take much of this power away from him.

Don’t forget: If a man talks shit, then we owe him nothing.❌
