We don’t deserve Dolly.
Dolly Parton is 100% class. One of the good ones.
She'll let you know "it costs a lot to look this cheap."
This isn't a shit post at all. Don't take it down, but it's not shit.
Imagine if all southerners were like Dolly.
TIL that Dolly Parton entered in and lost a Dolly Parton lookalike contest at some drag bar in LA in 2012

the railway in dolly parton's theme park has a higher ridership than the entire rail network in the state it's located in, iirc
Not just an 80s country singer. One that was mocked mercilessly as a big tit bimbo for years. She came out of that kind hearted and when Unknown Hinson came after her for preaching kindness there was such a backlash that he couldn't play shows for a while and Adult Swim fired him from Squidbillies.
The Imagination Library alone is a true blessing
The imagination library is fucking amazing.
The US doesn't deserve Dolly as a national treasure, she's a treasure of the world
In spite of the USA we have today
Let's agree that next time they wanna put up a statue of a confederate general, they put one up of Dolly instead. That way, everyone wins, except the loser general.
Many of those loser generals were self aware enough to specifically state that no statues or memorials of them should ever be made. Then Wilson came along......
The president we should have had.
We have the one we deserve, sadly
Idk how the people that didn't vote for this regime deserve to have this happen to them.
Spend the money on more books for kids, so we have fewer regressives in the future
GNU Dolly
All the more reason to build statues of her when we sort out some more serious problems.
I love Dolly. Her kindness and grace is an example to the world. She spent her own money to help rebuild the Gatlinburg area after fires destroyed it. She has a free program called Imagination Library that sends monthly books to children. It started regionally, and now she offers it to multiples countries.
She is so much better than the government of Tennessee. There's a reason everyone wanted her to run for Governor.
Dolly is a national treasure.
...she is made of sugar, and gives off spice, as human beings go, she's better than nice...
As an artist, I find this totally relatable. "Gosh, please don't erect a statue right now. A statue sounds nice, though. I am not saying not to build me a statue. Please immortalize my likeness."
I cannot imagine how hard it is to be as kind, loving, and gracious as she is, but to be surrounded by a world with so much willful anger, hate, and misery.
Class
Shit yeah, she's a woman after my own heart. She knows there is no need for a fuckin statue when people need help
We need more like her.
Goddamned saint.
I gotta say, given the state of Tennessee at the moment, I would not want my statue anywhere near the other icons they're raising.
Everyone liked that
I wonder how will they react, given that Robert E. lee didn't want statues.
"yes he did. yes she does."
that post is even more reason to have a statue of her.
