Dolly Parton's impact wasn't her music--though it was obviously that!--it was her love of humanity and her willingness to show it, to put in the work and money and effort and time and energy to show it, locally and far away.

When we say Dolly Parton changed lives, she did, it was clear, it was evident, it was everywhere. The Imagination Library was a supreme act of loving children and families and showing it through books and money and effort. The Moderna vaccines she funded. The money she poured into her hometown.

The Imagination Library was a gift, a gift that meant anyone could have books delivered to their house, for their kids, for YEARS. Your kids would have books that were THEIRS, in THEIR room, so they would grow up knowing what it was like to live in a house where reading was valued.

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure.
Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

Blanche v. Lau is devastating for green card holders. It means that if they leave the U.S. then return, a border officer can claim they committed a crime at some point, revoke their lawful status, and confiscate their green card without meaningful evidence of wrongdoing. It's really, really bad.
