I've seen a lot of wonderful tributes to Dolly, but this may be my favorite

ORPHANED CATS NEED FOREVER HOME IN NORTHEAST (PLEASE READ *ENTIRE* THREAD) My wife's childhood friend died Thursday, leaving his two *mildly* special-needs cats. The elder, Wally, is about 13. ABSOLUTELY affectionate cat; GLORIOUSLY dim. His only issue is that he poops in bathtubs if given a chance

Trump on Dolly Parton: "She really liked me, I will tell you"

Dem leadership: changing this is a difficult process, you fool. You rube. You utter infant. Give us between $5 and $50 Mamdani, wiping grease off his hands: So it turns out there's a switch on this machine that puts it into either orphan-shredding mode or free school lunch mode. Just had to flip it

Republicans have spent the last year trying to defund Dolly Parton

Evening folks: These two cats still need someone wonderful to give them a home. If it's not you, it might be someone you know, so *please* spread the word.

For Dolly Parton all the euphemisms are truisms. Without exaggeration I’m confidant we’ll all continue to discover more about her humble, important & generous altruistic charity work, which she would barely ever mention. Yet she somehow always found a good word for everyone, bar none. 🕊️🎶🤍 🦋

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

Empire State Building lights turned pink for Dolly Parton at 9:25pm 💖

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

NYC street artists work fast….Fulton Street is now Parton Street 🙏 *Work by plannedalism(IG)

Thank you Empire State Building. NYC ❤️ Dolly.

When a good and decent person leaves this world, I think the best thing we can do to honor them is to try to put even more goodness and decency into the world. It's not that we can replace them or their contribution. It's just that we need it all the more now that they're gone.

it's been weird over the past year to go from the radicalized one to the one trying to keep my most normie friends & family from getting tossed into an off-shore black site for the things they habitually say while eating salads

Really feeling the Yamamoto quote about "awakening a sleeping giant" lately. We are through the shock and fear phase and are now deep into the "every grandma and gentle parenting dad is vibrating with bloodthirst for revenge at levels I did not realize were possible"

Don't want people to celebrate your death? Live like Dolly did.

Maybe Darlene Graham will do what Trump and Republican leaders tell her to for the next 6 years and maybe she won’t. The reality is that they really have no idea because they know almost nothing about her real views on nearly every issue. Partly because she doesn’t have any yet.

When we hate on these disgusting immoral evil billionaires it’s bc just look at everything Dolly did. They could be doing that. They could just be helping people and every day they choose not to help people. They choose to harm. And when they die, we’ll dance and laugh and be thankful they’re gone.

Jack White is already paying tribute to Dolly Parton with a cover of Jolene in London

Saw these at the grocery store earlier and decided to Fatly honor Dolly Parton

my wife has a friend who sent Dolly Parton a painting she made & a letter explaining how much Dolly's music meant to her while she was transitioning. Dolly responded to it personally & paid for her top surgery. Sounds like an urban legend but it's real. I think we're going to more stories like this.

(1/2) Since I haven't seen anyone else mention this one... It was an open secret that Dolly Parton secretly funded a massive number of southern high school bands, most especially predominantly Black high schools. A marching band member in her youth, Dolly never forgot the joy that playing snare drum

(1/3) With Dolly Parton's passing, I want to put good words on the wind for her. Feel free to quote reply with your own. Dolly became the single largest donor for the Moderna COVID vaccine because of a chance encounter and friendship with a Vanderbilt researcher Dr. Naji Abumrad years earlier. She

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.

It probably should come as no surprise that Mike Lindell is now asking people to send him money so he can challenge his election loss.

This moment from last week’s debate should have been the end of her political career. Instead, she just won the Republican runoff and is the favorite to win in November. Unbelievable
