I remember seeing the movie in the theater and making fun of this scene. I will now readily, happily, full-throatedly say that teenage Phil was a jerk and he should shut the hell up. This scene is magnificent, and the music is *perfect*. Everything here tells exactly the story it needs to.

Mad dogs and Tennesseans
Man in a red shirt with white lettering taking a selfie of himself and his dog. They’re sitting on a very dried-out suburban lawn. (You can see the neighbors’ trees and a house in the background.) The dog is small (corgi-dachshund mix), and he has his mouth open to pant. He is looking at the man. They are both very hot.Screenshot of a current weather report for Farragut, Tennessee. It’s 97 degrees Fahrenheit, and there’s are heat advisories in effect today and tomorrow.

We’re not in the habit of recognizing celebrity deaths here at 925. That said, Dolly Parton is a national treasure and some folks here joke that Dolly is our Locals patron saint. After all her song “9 to 5” is our anthem. Today we remember all the love and kindness Dolly brought the world.
Tribute-style portrait of a Dolly Parton performing in a ruffled light purple blouse, arm raised and singing into a microphone, overlaid with the lyric: "You're just a step on the bossman's ladder / But you've got dreams he'll never take away."

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. 🦋❤️

As with American culture, Dolly sought to represent the best of what southern culture can be, in defiance of the no-good peckerwood assholes who try to define it at its worst

Dolly was internationally beloved but her death hits Tennesseans differently: she was one of us. I will be wearing black and sitting redneck shiva the rest of the week. Good night, sweet Queen.

I think the universal grieving comes in no small part from the fact she represented the best of what America could be, and that she never stopped chasing that ideal, artistically and socially

A bit of advice you should handle tomorrow if it applies: if you have an elderly parent (especially if just one, and if they are solo not even elderly) make sure someone has power of attorney.

This comes to mind: “if any man subvert the democracy at Athens, or hold any magistracy after the democracy has been subverted, he shall be an enemy of the Athenians. Let him be put to death with impunity, and let his property be confiscated to the public, with the reservation of tithe to Athênê.”

Hell, Democrats should use the enabling language of the 13th Am to say underrepresentation of Black people is one of the badges and incidences of slavery and refuse to seat any Congressional delegation that doesn't reflect the ethnic makeup of its state. Pack the Court so SCOTUS upholds it.

To keep things in perspective, sorta, w of the cost of the Artemis program is between $2 billion and 4 billion per launch.(That excludes the development costs for Orion and the SLS stack). We could keep going to the moon for years on what we’re wasting to lose this war.

Give the Senate like 300 Senators; apportion them by population. (The new Senate is the current House.) The new House has like 1000 members, the districts are set nationally, and the boundaries don’t have to match the state lines. Maybe Wyoming only gets to share a couple reps…
