Before we open to the public we must vanquish the current kitchen and its terrifying micro-hell that is the 'wall of slugs'.

like the reason Dolly feels like an exceptional human being is because all the things we're talking about today in her lifetime of philanthropy trace back to just .... having empathy and we live in the era of "I Don't Know How to Explain to You That You Should Care About Other People"

She didn't spend a dime on a dick-shaped rocket to space or yet another fancy building at Harvard and her legacy will long outlive anyone who blew their cash on those.

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

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. 🦋❤️

I've had the pleasure of a) seeing this book materialise as object during design stage, b) hearing Fay read the developing work over the last few years, & c) welcoming it into my studio for yesterday's photoshoot. Fay is a terrific writer. This is an important, lyrical, & gently political book.

Just found this tacked up at the college at which I teach, which has recently signed a deal with Anthropic, which stole 6 of my books and books by 131 colleagues.
Flier for a company that offers AI tutors that purport to tell you what happened in classes you missed. How they do this—is someone illegally recording the class?—isn’t made clear.

RIP Claudia Cardinale. Much like Robert Redford, she was a rare case of a beautiful performer with a filmography full of bangers who did NOT become right-wing later in life. Here she is punching fascist Brigitte Bardot in the face in Les Pétroleuses (1971).
