One more time.

#Adoption and #surrogacy are not the same thing.

In both cases, the child loses one or both biological parents.

But in adoption, the adults raising the child are seeking to mend the wound. In surrogacy, the adults raising the child have inflicted the wound.

Adoption is an institution centered around the best interests of the child.

Surrogacy is a marketplace centered around the desires of adults.

In adoption, adults do hard things on behalf of children.

In surrogacy, children do hard things on behalf of adults.

One supports children’s rights.

The other violates children’s rights.

[Dolly Parton @DollyParton]

Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at https://t.co/cLu9I7M2wC

❌ No, #Trump no ha derrocado a #Maduro solo por el petróleo.

🇻🇪 Detrás hay algo más grande: reforzar el dominio de #EEUU en América Latina, frenar a #China y acabar con los últimos gobiernos hostiles de la región.

El #petróleo cuenta, sí, pero no lo explica todo. Es una pieza más dentro de una estrategia política y geopolítica mucho más amplia.

✍️ En este artículo te contamos qué hay realmente detrás del derrocamiento de Maduro y por qué #Venezuela es clave en la agenda de Trump.
