rest in peace wendell berry, one of poetry’s greatest appreciators of trees

STAY HOME
I will wait here in the fields to see how well the rain brings on the grass.
In the labor of the fields longer than a man's life
I am at home. Don't come with me.
You stay home too.
I will be standing in the woods where the old trees move only with the wind and then with gravity.
In the stillness of the trees
I am at home. Don't come with me.
You stay home too.
-Wendell Berry

The absolute pinnacle of my career was getting to talk to Dolly Parton about books for 15 minutes. Dolly was the kind of person we should all aspire to be -- talented, funny, generous, a ray of goddamn sunshine. The world is going to be a much grimmer place without her.

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library charity delivers more than a million free books each month to kids. Parton spoke with American Libraries about reading, books, and her first children's album.

There’s a tidy little paragraph that lays it all out. Simple as

I need those in the middle of the road to understand something. The people leading this charge don't want to protect girls in sport. They want trans people to be gone. And they never will get what they want because trans people always have existed and always will. This movement won't go away if you give it this victory. They will just take and take and take. There's no point placating a campaign founded on hate.

worth noting how viciously music-related unions have been crushed (with one or two exceptions) in addition to this very insightful piece. distrokid, night owls, kings road, youtube music, and bandcamp all very much fought for their work to be sustainable and a bunch of rich shitheads pulled the plug
