There are serious things to say about authoritarianism, manipulation, and cults of personality, but “lol, drink the Kool-Aid” does none of that work. It makes the victims’ supposed gullibility the memorable part and lets the machinery of their captivity and agonizing death disappear.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Pour yourself a cup of ambition. It’s Dolly Parton Day.
bit.ly
It's officially Dolly Parton Day, with parades, pink lights and book drives
Communities worldwide are dedicating Friday to honoring Dolly Parton. The day falls on Sept. 25, a wink at her hit song “9 to 5.”

It's funny to me when people pretend they don't understand what long-time residents in particular cities mean when they use the term "transplant." Of course you do. They mean HOSTILE and DISRESPECTFUL people who move into cities and expect those cities to cater TO THEM and their personal bullshit.

Eye-wateringly stupid defence from Rowling’s team here - ‘She does not support legal actions aimed at harming transgender people.’ - Really? So that £70,000 towards the bathroom ban was by accident? The JKR Women’s Fund was made by an impersonator? At least have the spine to admit you want us dead

I feel like this crucial fact and Giuliani's name should be at the very TOP of this article, perhaps in the headline www.nytimes.com/2026/09/07/n...
From the New York Times article: Releasing the documents was both a significant logistical hurdle, for which the mayor budgeted $34 million, and an acknowledgment that, even after so many years, as fewer Americans remember the attacks, the health effects persist. More people are believed to have died from illnesses related to the attacks than the nearly 3,000 people who were killed on Sept. 11. They are succumbing to lung and blood cancers and heart and respiratory diseases.

New York, here’s how you can save a life: 1. Go to nyc.gov/naloxone to get free overdose-reversal medication, also known as Narcan®. 2. If you or someone you love is struggling with substance use, call 988 for confidential recovery resources.

If Dolly was our constant reminder that it was Good to be Good, Tim Curry was our reminder that it was Good to be Weird. Embrace your strangeness, sing with Muppets, wear your lingerie with a leather jacket, and fuck with uptight people who hate anything that makes them remotely uncomfortable.

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

The idea that accessibility is a limited and non-renewable resource consistently keeps people from imagining a better world where we've designed things so everyone can actually get what they need and be comfortable. It also keeps people from demanding changes for the better from those with power.

It was actually French Coca Wine first! Pemberton sold it as caffeinated French cocaine wine first, then created Coca Cola after temperance passed

Reading a novel set in the late 1800s and a character casually mentions "French cocaine wine" which 1. I thought they made up and 2. Finding out it was real sent me down a rabbit hole that lasted half the day. The POPE endorsing French cocaine wine literally *mind blown*
