The things I do for bring it on..... But this is why we won, nbd.

In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy.

She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid.

The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%.

She handed out the checks herself.

In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college.

When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months.

You've probably heard that part.

Here's the part you haven't:

The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top.

Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave.

She built her county an entire hospital.

She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it.

In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees.

Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal.

In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release.

And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it.

She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway.

She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did.

Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸

These guys are called Crabsmack and they only play covers of famous songs, but change the lyrics to make the songs about eating Crab/crablegs.

It’s crazy how everyone is fake…

[sensory homunculette @myfriendcallie]

surely THIS will be the purchase that finally fills the deep hole of sadness and dissatisfaction within me

[Heather Omeltschenko @heathchanko]

All I have to say is, GOOD ACTING…. :)

@crystalmethanie Says our society cares about earth and it’s creatures more than superficial focuses. I am proud of that conclusion, thank you.

Replace “finding yourself” with “returning back to yourself”. Your true self is there , under all the cultural conditioning , people’s opinions & inaccurate conclusions you’ve made that became your beliefs. Unlearn & remember who you were before the world got its hands on you.

It’s all about the money honey, they mess your plan up so later they can “oops! Looks like you gotta give us your money for one more semester!”

Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing.

It’s been almost 3 weeks since my last sob session.... that’s a new record!

@Roether_Da_Bomb Rad, also, you definitely gotta let me try on the neckbrace

[Heather Omeltschenko @heathchanko]

Forever searching for friends my age that don’t drink all the time for their source of fun.

[Heather Omeltschenko @heathchanko]

@Roether_Da_Bomb Oh PERFECT! Come on ova :)

[Heather Omeltschenko @heathchanko]

Don’t lie about what you like or about the hobbies you do to make yourself seem more interesting!!! The truth will come out eventually, so just be yourself! The right people will gravitate accordingly — and you’ll probably like yourself more too!

[Heather Omeltschenko @heathchanko]

@BultmanJacey EXACTLY! Like what, this song woulda been our JAM!

I don’t care what anyone says, driver’s license by Olivia Rodrigo breaks the little 16 year old heart in me. If you make fun of her, you just suck.
