Why is it that the first visual that popped into my head was Stanley Tucci’s “Gird your lions”. 😂

Same. Fortunately I don’t have to be around it. My late husband was a golf guy. My daughter’s in laws are obsessed and entire convos in the fall are fantasy football, stats, and arguing about the games. Boring.

I was ever so grateful my mom never did get into email or social media and they still bombarded her home with calls and letters.

This is absolutely true. My mom died at 83 this January. As executor of her estate I’ve seen how much junk she received about her money. Awful, aggressive letters about accounts she didn’t have. When alive, she believed whatever they said. It’s truly a disgrace how the elderly are targeted.

Dr. Jermaine Johnson slept in a locker room at the College of Charleston and still graduated. But his story isn't unique. Too many people are still fighting just to make it through. That's why he's running: to open doors for those coming behind him. @drjljohnson.bsky.social

I’m up early watching the BBC’s “The Media Show.”They had a guest, Nikolas Gruhn, a software engineer who coined the term meat proxy. “Meat proxy is a new term to describe someone who acts as a human conduit for material generated by AI.” Don’t be a meat proxy!!! 🥩

This reminds me of the great movie Big Night. Two Italian brothers work to save their restaurant with a big meal for Louis Prima. It’s one of my fave food movies.

There are very few people who, by the force of their own personalities, drive and character can change a culture. Gloria Steinem was one of them. May her memory be a blessing.

Kinda music related. I got a ticket to the 9/10 show of the New York Philharmonic with Gustavo Dudamel at Radio City Music Hall. Orchestra, Row F. I can’t make it, so would love to gift them to a music loving NYer. Are you interested?

Local SC ad for this woman is another Christian woman holding a bible and saying what a faithful woman she is! Comparing her to Ruth in the bible. So that’s how this campaign is going to go.

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.

Some people might not be aware, but it is entirely possible that without Dolly Parton we wouldn’t have had a COVID vaccine. She partly funded Moderna’s research and gave the largest individual contribution to make it all happen. Just gives you an idea of the kind of person she was.

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. 🦋❤️

The press hounded a man to his death, without checking that what they were saying was true. Yet they will never admit fault, will never change, will hound the next person in their crosshairs to their death.
