Here's the official announcement of Parton's passing from her reps, along with the request that in lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com

NASHVILLE, TN (August 25, 2026) – Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old. Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000). A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact. At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com. In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com.

Robin enters the Silver room of Babel third illustration for R. F. Kuang's Babel - Illustrated edition 30x40cm ink on claybord (starting to enter spoiler territory a bit here but eh)

black and white scratchboard illustration depicting a circular room in three point down-up perspective - around the room are circular pillars holding up a balcony. High above the room, an ornate dome. In the center of the room, dozens of silver bars of varying heights, some reaching to the ceiling, some a few inches high, are arranged almost like an organ. On the left side of the illustration, a boy wearing acamedic attire and holding a satchel, stands there and looks up at the silver bars in awe.

I have a hand embellished “Now We Ride!” print on my shop and another at the gay rodeo this weekend! Decided to just hang out, take photos and enjoy the crowd. My husband @arkanjil.bsky.social will have a booth, so I’ll be around! Hope to see you and take lots of great reference photos!

i would confidently say that most people dont feel good about their own work mainly bc we are constantly treated so terribly by the industry and are so severely underpaid that we cant help but feel like we are not good, we lack something, we don't have "what it takes"
