More than anything, Dolly very loudly and proudly, with her words and actions, gave a fuck about people. Giving a fuck is really what it's about.

Maybe one way we can honor Dolly Parton's memory is by following her advice:
"Find out who you are and do it on purpose."

[- @themarketclb]

start again.
try again.
trust again.
open up again.
believe again.
love yourself again.
be happy again.

"Malês", do Antonio Pitanga, tá na lista dos pré-selecionados pro Oscar 2027! É uma emoção gigante ver um mestre do nosso cinema na disputa pra representar o Brasil na 99ª edição da premiação. Vida longa ao cinema nacional! 🇧🇷✨

The discourse often reminds me of James Baldwin’s point, that for some intellectuals, “ideas were somewhat more real to them than people.”

Life is better when you start acting like you have autonomy and choices in all situations. Cause we do, even when shit is bad. Take control

i have seen what repressed emotion has done in my lineage and it absolutely ends with me. i'm not chasing purpose in life because just by existing and being open to see and then feel the full depth and strength of my emotions, i am well accomplished.

you can't outrun your grief; it'll find a way to work through you, one way or another

Robert Bly:

"One has the sense that some power in the psyche arranges a severe katabasis if the man does not know enough to go down on his own. Depression is a small katabasis, and something other than us arranges it. Depression usually surprises us by its arrival and its departure. In depression, we refuse to go down, and so a hand comes up and pulls us down. In grief we choose to go down."
