Tonight, the Empire State Building tower lights will turn to a pink sparkle at 9:25 to honor the late Dolly Parton.

Dolly was a global cultural icon whose seven-decade career reached generations of fans. Beyond entertainment, Dolly leaves a significant philanthropic legacy through the Dollywood Foundation and Imagination Library, which has provided hundreds of millions of books to children worldwide.

At Nine-Two-Five tonight, we celebrate her and her legacy 💖

Today I discovered what happens when you’re too disabled to fit the system, but not disabled in quite the right way.

I learned that the NHS doesn’t always fail because people don’t care, it fails because the system is so obsessed with ticking boxes that it forgets there’s an actual human being standing in front of it. Or in my case… lying down.

After six days in hospital with a sepsis infection and an adrenal crisis, I was finally able to be discharged.

Patient Transport was called, but to my absolute shock, they refused to take me home because I have occasionally had access to a vehicle when a carer is available to drive.

TODAY, I have neither.

No vehicle. No carer. No family who can drive it, No friends available…. AND a specialist tilted wheelchair that won’t fit into even an accessible cab. Black cabs? NOPE. Still don’t fit. No room to manoeuvre into a rear face position… and cabbies simply won’t pick me up. safety first.

I explained that to the ward manager.

Then explained it again.

And again.

Each time I was met with the same question:

“Can’t you get someone to collect you?”

No.

The solution was, to discharge me anyway, knowing I don’t have any means to get home.

None.

And so, I was taken down to the discharge lounge… the lounge which is available for patients waiting for Patient Transport.

The very Patient Transport I’d already been told wasn’t available today as there’s ZERO capacity and a backlog of days worth of patients trying to get home.

I asked the obvious… “What happens when the lounge closes, and I still have no way of getting home?”

“Someone will deal with that then.”

No plan.

No solution.

Just… computer says no…

Somewhere we’ve replaced compassion with flow charts, and clinical judgement with algorithms.

If you don’t fit neatly into the system’s boxes, the system doesn’t adapt. It simply decides that you are the problem. That’s exactly how I felt today. An awkward inconvenience.

I’m not a difficult patient.

I’m a disabled woman who doesn’t fit your spreadsheet.

There’s a difference!

Erling Haaland the last Norwegian player to leave the stadium. Stayed behind until 9:30 PM local time to take photos with family and other fans. He became one of the most beloved players in the sport by Americans during this tournament. #worldcup2026

🚨 STATEMENT:

🇪🇸 Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez to Donald Trump:

"Twenty-three years ago, the U.S. dragged us into Iraq over claims of weapons of mass destruction. None were found. You cannot fool us twice."

Ann Widdecombe has possibly been murdered, and @SkyNews thinks it’s appropriate to have a man discussing whether she was a virgin.

Why would whether a woman had ever had penetrative sex be relevant to her possible murder?

He then went on to speculate, on mainstream media, that it was a robbery gone wrong rather than politically motivated. That may ultimately prove to be the case, but speculation about motive before the facts are established has no place in responsible news coverage.

The first instinct when discussing a woman who may have been murdered should never be to reduce her to her sexual history. Ann Widdecombe deserved better. Every woman deserves better.

Alguien se acuerda de este video que hizo el Manchester City en 2022, cuando el mundial fue en medio de la temporada y Haaland vio a todos sus compañeros yendo a Qatar y él quedándose en Manchester porque Noruega no se clasificó?

ICYMI, this song is awesome and the love and patriotism oozes with every verse.

Social media trends have turned the world’s most beautiful places into endless bathroom lines at a concert, where everyone waits for hours just to take the same photo to show to people who couldn’t care less 🌎📸

Nothing captures the shallow decay of our time better than this
