Personally, I’ve made the decision to give all of my employees June 19th off in honor of Freedom Day from now on, and to continue to educate myself on the history that brought us to this present moment.
Writing this song felt like a musical departure and coming home at the same time. Creating something for Jessie was a new challenge and also felt like second nature all at once. And being a @toystory kid from the age of 5 til now… is an adventure I plan to be on, to infinity and beyond.
Thank you to the brilliant Andrew Stanton for imagining me for this, all those years ago when you wrote this newest film. Thank you to the incomparable @RandyNewman or the gorgeous sonic tapestry of songs and scores you’ve meticulously woven over the years. You created the Toy Story musical world, and we are lucky to get to live in it.
By we, I mean myself and my pal @jackantonoff. We wrote this with so much adoration for these characters that made us laugh and helped us learn lessons and think outside the backyard all throughout our childhoods. “I Knew It, I Knew You” from Toy Story 5 is out everywhere now. 🤠🐴

@AChillGhost Minnesota is basically a high-trust Nordic social-democracy with Swiss income levels.
Whereas the Right want to turn US into a West Virginia meth town. Its driven by jealousy.
Happy 36th birthday to the iconic Taylor Swift.
The 14x Grammy-winning superstar, who debuted in 2006, has taken the world by storm era after era, and record after record. Her impact has ranged from her songwriting talents, which landed her a Songwriter Hall of Fame nomination in her first year of eligibility, to the phenomenon of the Eras Tour, which is the highest-grossing tour of all time. She is the first artist in history to hold the entire Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 multiple times, which no other artist has done once. She was named TIME’s Person of the Year in 2023 and, this year, broke the record for biggest album opening in Billboard 200 history when her twelfth studio album opened at four million units. She also gained ownership to her first six albums and now fully owns her entire discography, which boasts four Album of the Year wins — the most for any singer ever.
Honestly can’t think of a better way to celebrate my (almost) birthday than to relive the Eras Tour with you! This time we’re going backstage. "The End of an Era", a 6-episode behind-the-scenes docuseries, streams on @DisneyPlus beginning Dec 12 🫶
Taylor Swift officially proves that she has ascended beyond the realm of A+ celebrity into a stratosphere that nobody has ever touched before.
With an earthshaking 4 million equivalent album sales, Taylor's 12th studio album ‘The Life Of A Showgirl’ earns the biggest weekly sales debut for any album in the history of humanity. What makes this never-done-before accomplishment even more impressive is that the 3,479,500 of those 4 million units were traditional album sales (physical/digital copies) which was basically unimaginable in the streaming era until now. The album was also streamed a record 680 million times within a week.
This record-shattering achievement showcases not only Taylor's cultural omnipresence even after 19 years into career but also the triumph of her artistic resonance as the real connoisseurs of music — the general public themselves bestow her this feat once again proving that: “Taylor Swift is The Music Industry”
🏆 | New records broken by Taylor Swift:
- Biggest first week debut (4M)
- Biggest pure album sales debut (3.4M)
- Biggest vinyl sales week (1.3M)
- Most #1 Billboard 200 albums (15)
- Largest streaming week in 2025 & 4th all time (680M)

It was the End of an Era and we knew it. We wanted to remember every moment leading up to the culmination of the most important and intense chapter of our lives, so we allowed filmmakers to capture this tour and all the stories woven throughout it as it wound down. And to film the final show in its entirety.
The Eras Tour | The Final Show, featuring the entire Tortured Poets Department set, and the first two episodes of The End of an Era, a 6-episode behind-the-scenes docuseries will be yours December 12th on @DisneyPlus
And, baby, that’s show business for you. New album The Life of a Showgirl. Out October 3 ❤️🔥
