Rest in peace, Dolly Parton (1946–2026) 💔
I don’t even know how to put this into words. We lost one of the true greats today, not just in country music, but in music, period. Dolly Parton was a songwriter, a singer, an actress, a businesswoman, a philanthropist, and one of the kindest hearts this industry has ever seen.
“Jolene.” “9 to 5.” “Coat of Many Colors.” “I Will Always Love You.” These aren’t just songs, they’re pieces of all our lives because we grew up listening to them. Dolly wrote music that crossed generations, crossed genres, crossed borders. And beyond the stage, through the Imagination Library, she put books into the hands of millions of kids and changed lives in ways most artists never even attempt.
There will never be another Dolly. The rhinestones may have stopped shining today, but her music, her humor, her heart, those infectious attributes of hers aren’t going anywhere. She will shine forever.
I think this incredible tribute by @Pink captures the greatness of Dolly’s life!
Rest easy, Dolly. Thank you for the songs, the laughs, the memories, and everything you gave the world. ❤️🕊️

If you're keeping score ...
Geno mad Dawn didn't shake his hand pre-game?
*Video replay shows she did.
Geno says South Carolina ripped his player's jersey?
*Video replays shows Sarah Strong ripped her own.
Even though we are older, and the hats are older, the excitement of winning in the final four is every bit as fresh as it ever was. We love Dawn and this team, Gamecocks forever.
America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.
The new Pope isn't anti-MAGA.
MAGA is anti-Jesus.
(If this angers you, please cite one actual commandment of Christ that Trump fights for.
Chapter & verse. Just one.)
Yes it's absolutely true - the human race survived hundreds of thousands of years without vaccines.
They just died at 40 and half the babies never saw their first birthdays but hey, those were the good old days
Joe Gatto from Impracitcal Jokers is a 48 year old man who was married and invited a teenager to his hotel room but somehow the girl is being judged more than him. This is insane and why women do not come forward.
Let’s be clear: the Department of Education exists because states wouldn’t fund poor schools, wouldn’t protect kids with disabilities, wouldn’t follow civil rights law, especially in the South. Anyone calling to abolish it is calling to turn back the clock—and we can’t let that happen.
I will never get over how A’ja talks about how her grandma could not walk on that campus and now her granddaughter has a statue on campus AND her jersey in the stands
That’s the funding to keep senior citizens for freezing, kids from starving, students in college, kids in their special ed programs, healthcare centers running, and healthcare for millions
The scope of the potential harm here is absolutely devastating and the whole thing is wildly unconstitutional
Everything is extremely chaotic but the best info we have so far suggests that Trump’s “stop funding” EO would cover:
Medicaid
ESSA funds
IDEA
Snap
School meals
WIC
Head start grants
Child care block grants
Pell grants
Student loans
Higher Ed grants
Housing vouchers
CTE

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have deeply, deeply misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.
