Reminder that Dolly Parton's 9 to 5 is a film about three women taking over an office and introducing free childcare, paid vacation, and flexible hours, resulting in a 20% increase in productivity.
@DrunkRepub "Dolly wasn't political"... She backed BLM, gay marriage, women's rights, funded vaccines, donated millions for HIV/Aids research, dumped wrote song dragging politicians, and in support of undocumented immigrants. She wasnt apolitical. She was nonpartisan!!
If your “activism” is built purely on hating other people for not being “good enough” then you’re not an activist and you don’t actually care about these issues. You are just trying to feel good about yourself without actually doing anything good or important
"Dolly wasn't political"... OH STFU she backed BLM, gay marriage, women's rights, funded vaccines, dumped dixie and wrote a whole ass song dragging politicians. She wasnt apolitical. She was nonpartisan. Dolly's gift was making people feel loved w/o pretending they are right.
Jane Fonda has released a statement in support of Mark Ruffalo after Paramount slammed the four-time Oscar nominee as “antisemitic”:
“Calling his criticism antisemitic is a smear to delegitimize criticism of the merger and to distract from the question Paramount would rather not answer: Should one company be allowed to accumulate this much power over our movies, television and news?”

The feeling of losing my Aunt Dolly is beyond what feels right to share. Our most sacred moments were private and they’ll stay there behind the stage, beneath the glamour & between our hearts.
What I KNOW is Dolly would want me to feel it, write a song about it, and then continue on and be strong. I have an angel by my side. I always have. One of our last conversations was about music and metamorphosis. 🦋
I will always love her and want to make her proud. My heart breaks for the world, her family and friends who will miss her deeply. We’re in this loss together and we will see her in all of the most beautiful things. 💖 @dollyparton
internet activism in a nutshell
nice person: spends time with children in hospitals, goes to feminist protests, donates to LGBTQ+ charities, stands up against racial injustice
internet person: "ok but what's ur stance on Palestine?"
you guys are so fake and dgaf fr.
@mcrkrokosmos98 Why have American liberals/leftists made the Israel and Palestine conflict the one and only issue that everyone should focus and speak on?
This is truly heartbreaking. Dolly Parton was an extraordinary person and an irreplaceable champion of the working class. We are a better country because of her.
