So what did Dolly Parton name the entity she established to oversee her estate, publishing interests, and legacy after her death? “She’s Alive LLC.” Absolutely perfect.

DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history. This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.
DoorDash messed up.
They repeatedly left more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers underpaid or paid late, causing them immense stress and financial difficulty.
That's unacceptable.
We've secured a $131.5M settlement from
DoorDash - the largest worker settlement in NYC history and largest delivery worker settlement in
American municipal history.
Every worker will be paid what they are owed, and every company will be forced to abide by the laws of this city.

You know, when you find out that the art you like is made by people you've learned hold views you find wholly repugnant, I don't think you need to disavow ever having enjoyed the art. It's okay to acknowledge you liked or loved that art, but are now putting it aside. That was then, this is now.

My favorite Dolly Parton meme.
A twitter interaction where someone posted a photo of Dolly Parton looking hot as hell in black and red lingerie. Someone else replies to the photo with "Well then wha the hell did Jolene look like???"

"My little butterfly wings are getting kinda tired." Dolly knew the power of leading with love. She is, and will always be, an inspiration and an example. She's been a guiding light in my life and so many others. An angel on earth went home. We'll always love you, Dolly.

Tim Curry brought the same professional energy to every cartoon and game performance as he brought to his iconic performance of the Devil himself in Legend. He gave equal reverence to all mediums he worked in, and from here in the game slums, I can tell you that’s damn rare. Rest in SPaAAaAcE!”

We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.

The doctor who claimed that vaccines cause autism lost his medical license for faking for the study. But his lies and the damage he did to public health persist long after his paper was pulled. This is why science communication is so difficult; all it takes is one grifter.

Black text on a white page that reads as follows:

In January, our administration inherited a $12 billion budget deficit — a fiscal crisis greater than the Great Recession. 

Today I am proud to announce that our balanced budget has cleared the final step and passed the New York City Council. 

We balanced the budget by taxing the rich and making government more efficient. We did not balance this budget on the backs of working people, and we never will. 

Every year that follows will build on these principles: Honest budgeting. Fiscal discipline. Transparent government. And an unwavering belief that working people deserve a government that delivers for them every day.
