IMO I think a great way to process this grief is to look up every state representative that is looking to defund Dolly’s Imagination Library program and start calling up their phones!

[Rolling Stone @RollingStone]

Dolly Parton's family asked that, in lieu of flowers, fans make a donation to the singer's Imagination Library.

Here's what the charity does ⬇️

The time Dolly Parton and Kermit jammed to Sly and the Family Stone.

This is always how I will remember her.

[Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦 @cmclymer]

Here's what I think needs to be said about Dolly Parton:

You knew everything about her, everything real and true, by her actions.

She was a Christian who spread the Gospel solely through taking care of the least fortunate among us.

She was a patriot who thought the best of America was in our diversity and never backed down from that.

She was a champion of equality solely by doing, not claiming.

She let her music and actions do the talking.

You always knew where she stood just by her example.

Remember when they sold us the slogan, “Go paperless, save trees, save the planet”? Now we've gone digital, and it's consuming enormous amounts of water, destroying ecosystems, harming bees, and contributing to environmental damage on a scale paper never did.

31 out of 32 NFL owners are billionaires.
26 out of 30 NBA owners are billionaires.
26 out of 30 MLB owners are billionaires.

Your tax dollars helped build their stadiums.

But today, the average person can’t afford the price of a ticket to a sporting event.

That must change.

I think it’s time to start eating the rich because everything else has salmonella, listeria, E. coli, or glass in it.

What do Zohran Mamdani, Abdul El-Sayed, Peggy Flanagan and Angie Nixon have in common?

They all ran strong progressive grassroots campaigns.  They were all heavily outspent. THEY ALL WON.

The establishment has the money. We have the people.

When we stand together, we win.

45 MILLION ACRES of pristine forest.

Let’s be clear: Once it’s destroyed, you don’t just grow it back.

We are watching people who value absolutely nothing but extraction and profit dismantle something precious that belongs to all of us.

Capital One cheats customers and gets caught.

They agree to pay back $2.2 billion.

Then they donate $1 million to Trump.

Poof! Settlement canceled.

Cap One pockets $2.2 billion instead.

Karoline Leavitt's legacy will be that of a woman who wore a cross around her neck while helping cover up the largest child sex abuse scandal in modern history.

This is how she'll be remembered.

Pete Buttigieg wants to scrap the Electoral College for a national popular vote.

He asks: “What if everybody’s vote just counted the same?”

I’m with Pete. Each and every one of our voices should be heard and counted 💯

WE MUST ADDRESS THE CLIMATE CRISIS

The last 11 years have been the hottest 11 years on record. The last three years have been the hottest three years on record. 2026 will be one of the warmest years on record, and most scientists believe 2027 will be the warmest year in recorded history.

This past year, Europe has seen four major heat waves, including the continent’s worst heat wave ever that killed more than 10,000 people. In the United States, three extreme heat waves exposed hundreds of millions of people to dangerous levels of heat. Drought is causing some of the lowest water levels ever seen for reservoirs along the Colorado River, threatening the drinking water of 40 million people. Puerto Ricans are being forced to ration water because of extreme drought. In Europe, some of the continent’s dryest conditions have caused major rivers to run so low that ships are running aground, nuclear power plants are shutting down, and historical artifacts that were previously submerged are being revealed. South Korea is in the midst of a record heat wave — with temperatures reaching 108.5° Fahrenheit, the highest temperature in the country’s history. China, India, Pakistan and Afghanistan are all experiencing torrential rain and flooding.

As a result of rising heat levels, we are seeing massive wildfires across the world, including Oregon’s worst wildfire season and fires in Washington state that have forced nearly 65,000 families to evacuate. Europe, France and Spain are experiencing destructive wildfire seasons that have forced more than 330,000 people to evacuate their homes. Portugal, Greece, Italy, Albania, Turkey, Canada, Morocco and Algeria are also experiencing destructive wildfire seasons.

This summer alone,Alaska, Louisiana, New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and West Virginia have all seen record rainfall events. We’ve seen 1,000-year floods in Texas, Missouri and New York. Once rare, dangerous flash flooding emergencies are now a regular part of summer for tens of millions of Americans.

One might think that, in the midst of all of this, there would be major discussions in Congress as to how best to go forward in addressing this existential crisis. Not the case. Insanely, the president of the United States continues to believe that climate change is a “hoax,” and Republican members of Congress are following their “Great Leader” over the cliff. Sadly, too many Democrats think that speaking out on climate change is “bad politics” and have remained far too silent.

That has got to change. The simple truth is that we must forcefully take on the greed of the fossil fuel industry and the stupidity of Trump.

The simple truth is that we can create millions of good-paying union jobs transforming our energy systems away from fossil fuels and into energy efficiency and sustainable energy.

For the sake of our kids, future generations and the habitability of the planet,that is exactly what we must do.

@OgLakyn I think some people who have only been exposed to fast fashion don’t know what it feels like to put on something beautifully and carefully made. The fabric, the fit, the little touches. I would always choose a second hand high quality wedding dress (or anything) than new junk.

Racist Senator Bernie Moreno concocted the "eating the cats and dogs" lie at the same time he knew his son-in-law was beating the shit out of his daughter and her infant...and did nothing to help.

AIPAC spent $30 million trying to defeat Abdul El-Sayed in the primary. They lost.

Now, they plan to spend tens of millions more against him in the general election.

This is not democracy. This is oligarchy and a corrupt billionaire-funded campaign finance system.

Fight back.
