I don't even know what to say. Human suffering, real torment and suffering, is not a joke, much less when you're the one causing it. It's just disgusting and hard to fathom that we're still capable of this.

Finally made a donation, and I don't know why I didn't expect the sweet note, but there it was. 🦋 I hope many more generations to come know Dolly as the book lady.

Beau,

Thank you so much for your monetary gift to support my Imagination Library. This program is so special to me and I am thrilled that it is special to you, too. My Daddy was the inspiration for the Imagination Library and he told me many times that out of all of the dreams I had fulfilled, this program was the one thing that made him the most proud of me!

Your generosity will help us continue to grow this program so that we can gift books to more children to inspire a love of reading. We have surpassed over 2 million children receiving books each month but we have dreams to do more!

Your support will help give those dreams wings, along with the generous help from our local partners who manage the program and raise funds to support it in communities around the world. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Together we are going to keep dreaming and keep growing!

Love,
Dolly

God, what a beautiful person.

Dear Imagination Library Graduate,
My, how time flies. It seems it was only yesterday when your family and friends read you your first story. You were just a baby. Now you're five years old and about to go to school. How exciting!
This may be your last book from my Imagination Library but you have to promise me you will keep on reading. If you go to your local public library you will find a great number of books just for kids your age. Every book is a treasure and every time you open one up you will meet new friends and take wonderful journeys to magical places.
I hope you have a great time in school. I bet your school will even have a library where you can check out books. You and all of your friends are very special. There is no limit to what you can do or how far you can go.
Just remember the lessons my family taught me - dream big dreams; learn everything you can learn; and care for all those who care for you. You do all of these things and you can be anyone you want to be.
You are terrific, and remember...
I Will Always Love You,
Dolly

Jimmy Burrows died?! Damn. Just watched him on The Comeback a few weeks ago. This man brought us Cheers and directed shows like The Bob Newhart Show, Frasier, Will & Grace, and Taxi, among others. A TV giant.

Many of my friends know that I grew a balcony vegetable garden last year and had great success. This year I decided to start from seed (indoors) to save money. I've nursed these little bastards for weeks and weeks. Grow light, starter trays & mix, heating pad, outside and in to harden them off. 🧵

Just checked out @havencoffeenbooks.bsky.social today for the first time and loved it! If you're in the Denver metro, go check it out! Very cozy vibe, comfy chairs, good coffee (and other things), nice people, and reasonably-priced used books.

There are six Michael Jackson songs on the Billboard Hot 100 right now and 17(!) on the Global Top 200! The number one song globally is "Billie Jean" and "Beat It" is #5. If you haven't seen Michael yet, it's worth a trip to the theater. I saw it a few days ago and it's sticking with me.

Haha, Bloody Marys always have some sort of garnish, some get extremely elaborate. And some just get ridiculous.

Thanks everyone on the left who didn't vote because Harris failed your purity test. #studentloans #politics

Screenshot of email, " Dear Beau,

Our records show that you have a pending application for the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) Plan to repay your federal student loans. As a reminder, a court order ended the SAVE Plan. Your student loan servicer will soon deny your SAVE Plan application. You must select a new repayment plan, or your student loan servicer will automatically move you into a different repayment plan."

Terrible Bloody Mary from Father's Daughters Pizza in Durango, CO. Bitter and unpleasant. The worst I've had. Great olive I guess. 3/10.

I've been on a great road trip in southwest Colorado. I'm just going to post about my Bloody Marys. I already forgot to get a photo of one of them. This was at the Lazy Dog Saloon in Ridgeway, Colorado. 7/10. Solid, spicy. Crushed red pepper on the rim.

Had a great time seeing Stomp with my friend Renee from my crochet (and knitting) group! Stomp was all the rage when I was a kid, so it was great to finally get a chance to see it. It was impressive, it deserved the hype. #theater #theatre

At a show called Sweet & Lucky: ECHO. The information on it is so vague. I even watched an interview with the creator and still have no idea what this is. "Immersive" is all I know. I truly have no idea what to expect.

I'm late to this it would seem, but this guy, whoever he is, is phenomenal! From what I can see people are dying to know who he is on YouTube, but lots of dead ends. Either way, bravo, "Put Your Head On My Shoulder" guy! #music

Agreed, @jimmykimmel.com. CBS has shown itself to be run by cowards, paying a bribe to a conman, now this.

Thank you! There was color correction on that photo, so I think that's likely why they seem so yellow. We did put vegetable fertilizer in with the soil when we potted them six weeks ago. Would more fertilizer now be too soon? Here's the photo without color correction. Thanks again!

I’m growing two Hungarian hot wax peppers, but the peppers stay around 1" instead of reaching the expected 4–5". The plants have grown well and I’ve picked two so far. Does the plant just need more time, or should I do something? #gardening #vegetablegarden

Beau @beaupedia.me · 18/07/2025

My balcony vegetable garden is coming along nicely! Have harvested 5 cherry tomatoes so far, a couple small Hungarian wax peppers, and some dill. Jalapeno and cucumbers both have tons of flowers. Need some gardening help though, see 🧵 #gardening #vegetablegarden

My sister just notified me that yesterday was the 28th anniversary of MMMbop being released. I was a little happier before this information, it can't possibly be 28 years!? 13-year-old me had such a crush on Taylor, which was very inconvenient for my plan to be a heterosexual. 😅

The #HandsOff protest in Denver was uplifting and inspiring. I've been in a bit of an intentional bubble since the election, avoiding the news and a lot of political discussion, but it was time to finally break out. Glad I did. We must keep fighting.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They're taking everything they can get their hands on & daring the world to stop them. On April 5th, we're taking to the streets nationwide to say: Hands Off! #HandsOff #April5

Remembering Marcus Parker. I met him back in 2006 and he lit up every room he was in. It is hard to comprehend that light is no more. He was incredibly kind to me and my boyfriend at the time and always had our backs. 🧵

And you think with Donald Trump on the ballot this was the year to do it? Again, I'm sure that's comforting to people in ICE detention centers.
