🔥 Full coverage and conversation on Taylor Swift
Picture this: It's September 1st. August sipped away like a bottle of wine. It's been 12 days since the last Eras Tour show, and it's quiet...so peaceful and quiet. The fandom is restless. And it turns out being a Swiftie is about to be a full-time job this month.

In case you didn't know, 13 is Taylor Swift's lucky number, and she has a song called "Mirrorball."
Between the Chiefs kickoff, Taylor's presidential endorsement, the VMAs, a certain conspiracy theorist subset of the fandom fully divorcing from reality, and unprecedented levels of clowning, September was magic, madness, heaven, and sin. So here's everything you missed on Swiftie Twitter this month!
1. School is back in session, and one Swiftie teacher had quite the surprise when she walked in the room:
Someone stole the C and L off my work besties door, which I guess was probably pretty predictable in hindsight… pic.twitter.com/G8E4DkWpHg

They won't let her bejeweled!!!
2. The Chiefs hosted the Ravens for the first NFL game of the regular season on Sept. 5, and everyone was on Taylor Watch™️ — except the usual dads, Brads, and Chads:

3. With the start of football season, all the Swifties who are new to the sport and joined a fantasy football league were left asking the same question: "Am I allowed to cry?"

My team name is "It's Nice to Have a Tight End," and I never realized how much I could care about the health and success of 16 athletes I picked at random.
4. People started to question whether Taylor Swift would endorse Kamala Harris — but they shouldn't have worried. She posted her endorsement on Instagram after the debate on Sept. 10:

If you want to stay up to date on Taylor Swift news and find links to livestreams of the Eras Tour, I highly recommend following Swift Alert!!!
5. Meanwhile, people were speculating that Brittany Mahomes (Taylor's friend and vocal Trump supporter) wasn't thrilled with the endorsement:

6. A few days later, all eyes were on Taylor at the MTV VMAs:
“oh you like taylor swift you’re not one of those crazy swiftie girls right?”

7. No, really — there was even an audience POV camera focused specifically on Taylor:

If you don't know who Mike Wazowski is, how dare you?
8. In a possible attempt to avoid the cameras, Taylor was seen heading backstage multiple times throughout the evening:

9. Of course, it wouldn't be an award show without Swifties clowning for a Reputation (Taylor's Version) announcement in an acceptance speech:
They think I’m announcing rep tv pic.twitter.com/iLuQatTxDm

For the uninitiated, "clowning" is what Swifties call it when we wildly speculate about album announcements and other Taylor Swift news. Since we know Taylor will drop the rerecorded versions of her albums Reputation and Taylor Swift at some point, people have increasingly unhinged theories about when those albums will be announced. The clowning for Reputation (Taylor's Version), in particular, is reaching new heights this year.
10. But she did go on stage with Post Malone to accept the first and last awards of the evening:
this felt like when the most random girl and boy are put in a group for a chemistry homework and it’s time to present the project in front of the class. pic.twitter.com/nvSnNhrm6p

11. And in her acceptance speech for Video of the Year, Taylor thanked "my boyfriend, Travis," and we cheered:
“my boyfriend travis”

She also said that "everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic." (Alexa, play "So High School" by Taylor Swift.)
12. It's funny because it's true:

13. Sept. 13 should have been a slow news day, but Swifties have been waiting MONTHS since The Tortured Poets Department first dropped to see if the poem Stevie Nicks wrote for the album on "Sept 13 8:50 P.M." was an easter egg of some kind (it wasn't):
In fifty years, will all this be declassified? pic.twitter.com/QUYYJLSk1g

14. Seriously, Swiftie Twitter is just one big clown car:
can’t even imagine what it must be like to be a normal person & not be sitting around waiting for 8:50 pm on a friday night just in case blondie drops something

15. Donald Trump posted "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!" on his Truth Social account, presumably because Taylor endorsed Kamala Harris:
“I hate Taylor Swift!” pic.twitter.com/0j6zCfZnfM

16. Speaking of the smallest man who ever lived...
my apologies to the school bus full of children that just watched me have what they probably think is a verbal altercation via cellphone, but it was just the bridge to the smallest man whoever lived.
when yous get bigger, you'll understand okay.

17. Then it was time for another Chiefs game:

18. Taylor wore thigh-high boots to the game again:

19. The next day, Jack Antonoff shared some pictures from December 2023 of him in the studio with Taylor and Sounwave, a producer who she's worked with in the past — but not on her most recent album. Swifties quickly realized that they were most likely working on new music together:
Jack Antonoff just posted this picture of him, Taylor Swift and Sounwave in the studio on December 2023.

20. But before we can have new music, Swifties are growing increasingly desperate for the release of Reputation (Taylor's Version) and Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version):

21. On Sept. 22, the Chiefs played the Falcons in Atlanta, and Taylor was nowhere to be seen:

(Friendly reminder to anyone panicking about her absence: She's historically less likely to attend away games. Also, she's busy...because she's Taylor Swift.)
22. They say it's about the journey, not the destination, but every second of the game leading up to the Chiefs' win was pure torture:

24. As the month comes to a close, Swifties are missing the Eras Tour more than ever:
do you happen to know the lyrics to this bridge??? pic.twitter.com/ed2L2fq9I7

When Taylor shouts "PROVE IT!" before the "Cruel Summer" bridge, you're legally mandated to sing along.
25. Although the month may be over, don't worry! You'll have new Septembers. Also, the Eras Tour (and Mastermind) will return in just 18 days, so try not to lose your entire mind like this person who saw the stage in their bowl of Cheerios:
