I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Normalize apologizing! Apologizing for things you’ve done/gotten wrong is important both for personal growth and for providing a social baseline for right and wrong. Apologizing is good!

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 dollyparton.com In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at imaginationlibrary.com

RE: #WIGov race - once again, the pollsters got it completely wrong! A reminder to always VOTE - polls don't decide elections, voters do! Don't ever be dissuaded from showing up to vote because pollsters tell you it won't be close!

I genuinely do not remember food being recalled so often throughout my life. Deregulation does not work. Science and inspections matter.
The Trump administration has announced an emergency recall of 12,000 pounds of bacon.

I thought I was done when the season ended. I wasn't ready to announce it, and I knew I needed some time to really decide, but I was pretty sure I played my last game. I was honest at that last press conference when I said I needed to look at myself and deicide if I still love

Does it bother anyone else that the following nonprofits all seem to have the same marketing company using the same basic marketing advertising? @ACLU @splcenter @feedthechildren @NAACP @PPFA are just a few I’ve noticed.

At 1 PM, the Declaration of Independence is read aloud at the Boston State House, where it is received merrily by the gathered citizenry. The audience responds with three huzzahs and 13 rounds of cannon fire, followed by public libations.

Trump released documents that confirm Russia tried to interfere in the 2020 election to hurt Biden. It says Russia tried to "orchestrate a high-profile corruption scandal" and push narratives about "voter fraud resulting from mail-in balloting"

This is really incredible. Docs released by Trump tonight confirm RUSSIA tried to spread claims Biden was engaged in criminal activity vis-a-vis Burisma and that it advanced those narratives "with US officials" and planed a "high-profile corruption scandal... at the peak of the 2020 US presidential campaign."
