We’re not changing it.

You know who else has an unfair advantage in sport? Naturally talented athletes. And people with high hemoglobin. And rich people with money for sports camps and coaches. Why should they be allowed to compete? “Fairness in sports” my ass. Never since NFTs have I heard such bullshit.

Fuck

Goddammit. Now Tim Curry. Again, wrong 80 year old. Thanks for all of the laughs and wonder, Mr. Curry. You were splendid.

The best gift ever….

Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.

This is the highest compliment. Note: I have seen MAGA assholes try to drag her for her liberal outlook. "She supported BLM as they burned cities to the ground!" I simply asked for them to name a single city BLM burned. The correct and only answer is Atlanta. During the Civil War.

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

Dolly broke me in early to her raucous self deprecating sense of humor when we began steel magnolias rehearsals  i asked her - how long does it take to do a hair do like yours? Dolly - no idea, i’m never there when they do it! i started taking Dolly-isms notes on the back of my script after that

A great loss for us all. A light in our darkness, a talent like none other. Rest in song and mirth, Dolly. The heavens have a new star among them.

This.

This needs to be a thing.

Dolly instead of Trump is why I no longer even believe in karma.

Reunion Tower in downtown Dallas lit up pink tonight for Dolly.

BREAKING: Everton Blair Jr. wins runoff for Georgia’s 13th Congressional District, meaning he will be the first Black openly gay Congressman from the South. Congrats to Everton Blair Jr. on his victory.

For those of you that haven't read it, Chapter 10 of Project 2025 was literally about creating food insecurity by cutting safety nets and slashing regulations and restrictions on food production. No, we weren't overreacting to Project 2025.

The Empire State Building went pink at exactly 9:25pm for Dolly Parton. Because of course they made it 9 to 5. That’s how you honor an icon. 🩷

Damn. Dolly Parton passing away is a blow right now to everything decent and good. She will be missed by all. Not too many left like that lady

[Exit Queen.]

Nope I won't accept this.

RIP❤️ There’ll never be another Dolly. She was a real one. From Civil Rights to literacy to the empowerment of women…she always stood in the gap. The world lost an angel today. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

You’ve got to see this. Angie Nixon’s Café Resistance is so much more than a bookstore. It’s a community hub offering FREE tutoring, a food pantry, Black history classes, mentorship, mental health workshops, music lessons, healthcare resources and more.

This is sick. Where is the outrage!!!

Gary, Indiana residents have been without power for ten days. Here’s how you can help.

My mom said the most parent of GenX(Gen Jones) thing ever yesterday: "I've learned more about your childhood from you as an adult than I remember or ever thought I knew when you were a child". Still think we should change our appellation to Gen F for Feral.

We keep telling you leftists/progressives how to win elections and you all refuse to listen. I’m beginning to think “winning” is not the point.

Starting to see comments like, "If Dems don't do [insert pet issue here], they can f__k off!" For goodness take, try to take a broader perspective. Dems have never in all my life done everything I wanted them to do, but they've always been the superior alternative to Repubs. Vote like an adult.

I know @bruceshark.bsky.social gets me.

Ya almost had me there, scammers. I haven't spoken to my mother in nearly eleven years. We are permanently estranged. It would be a goddammed miracle if she called me. She is, after all, dead.

If you have seen the articles about police abusing Flock cameras and LPRs to stalk exes, love interests, and women in general and you're alarmed/terrified? Take a moment and think about what cops are able to do to sex workers by using those cameras.

Repeat: Black people do not hang ourselves from trees.

Nah, I can’t be convinced this was death by suicide. Black people do not lynch themselves from trees, and the fact that these cases have been dismissed so quickly without thorough investigation is telling.
