    I'm supporting the person who gave free books to 300.million children. But go off, everyone has to be perfect and no one is allowed to be more complex than a single one liner ideology. Got you.

    My ex grew up as a dirt poor Appalachian and thus was a huge lover of Dolly especially for her working to help alleviate the poverty and lack of education in the area. The world is worse off without her, but I think we oughta try to bring a little of her with us into the future. She was kind to all and helped anyone who needed it.

    Disappointing, but not surprising. Her husband of nearly 60 years died last year. Couples together that long tend not to last too well apart.

    This woman was either a literal saint or had the best PR team the world has ever seen

    In my opinion she's up there with Bob Ross, Steve Irwin and Mr. Rogers.

    Lindsay Ellis good a recent video on Nebula analyzing her career in a way that really ends up working well as a post-mortem of Dolly's career. The conclusion is that Dolly Parton was a savvy business woman with good PR and a knack to stay out of politics, but she was also kind and charitable woman who could be the better person despite decades of boob jokes.

    Welp, guess what... I have a baby who receives books from this and got a letter saying due to cuts it has been cancelled for my state. Republicans have ruined everything good

    While I'm not a fan of country music, Dolly was a legend.

    She was a shining example of what a human could be. A life well lived.

    Tonight, I raise a glass of red to you, Dolly, and drink it for all of us still here making the best of whatever scraps we got!

    Why couldn't someone else who is also 80 not die? Why and not them fuck the universe.

    I wish the flags would fly at half mast for her instead of white supremacists. In these tough times it's really hard to lose a really good one like Dolly. I'm usually not that affected by celebrity news but this one hurts really bad. RIP Dolly.

    What a truly powerful and talented musician with an angelic voice and a urge to soul heartedly defend LGBTQ rights.

    What a country goddess.

    RIP "It should've been Trump!!!!!!! (or Unknown Hinson!!!!!!)"

    I love Dolly. Went to Dollywood back in April. I would hate to see her estate picked apart and monetized, but you and I both know where this leads.
