Dolly Parton on her Imagination Library program that Republicans defunded:
"[My daddy] was the smartest man I have ever known, but I knew [...] his inability to read probably kept him from seeing all of his dreams come true. Inspiring kids to love to read became my mission."
Neil deGrasse Tyson: “Whatever [the next outbreak] is, we ain’t ready for it. We still have anti-vaxxers running around.”
“I don’t trust scientists. I saw a YouTube video, so I’m not going to take it.” (mocking)
“I don’t want you to ever forget this story.”
“20,000 years ago, we’re in the cave. Do you know what the life expectancy was?”
Shannon Sharpe: “10 years? 15 years?”
Neil deGrasse Tyson: “30. Half of everyone born was dead before they were 30.”
Shannon Sharpe: “Wow!!!”
Neil deGrasse Tyson: “Fast forward to 1840… everyone born in the world was dead by the age of 35. We gained five years of life expectancy. And every one of them ate organic, breathed clean air… Science matters here.”
“We’ve doubled the life expectancy with antibiotics, vaccines, and sanitation. The three biggest forces operating on our longevity. So to come around and say I don’t need vaccines because I’m not getting sick, that’s like saying, why are you using dandruff shampoo? You don’t have dandruff.”
Shannon Sharpe: “Well, I don’t want to get it.”
Neil deGrasse Tyson: “That’s my point. If you’re successful, people think you don’t need it when that’s what’s creating the ongoing success in the first place.”
The #Falcons and star WR Drake London have agreed to terms on a massive new contract extension, as he gets a four-year deal, sources say.
Atlanta’s former first-rounder has been a priority and now paid in a deal done by Andrew Kessler of @AthletesFirst.
I hope yall are outraged enough to show up for jury duty the next time yall get called, instead of trying to find a way out or ignoring the notice all together
Killed that lil boy and then claimed he pointed a gun at him after the fact to argue “self defense”. The exact same shit George Zimmerman pulled with Trayvon. “I was the victim of the child I was stalking with a gun trying to kill” should not be an accepted legal defense, and yet
“You’re an antisemite.”
No, I’m actually anti-satanic.
You don’t get to bomb hospitals, commit a genocide and traffic children to blackmail politicians and then play the victim.
I’ve been waiting for this energy for so long man. No more kids gloves. We’ve got to drag these Republicans for the slime they are and all their low IQ policies. Ossoff gave them BELT!
