Dolly Parton Is the Most Popular Person in America, New Poll Finds A new University of Massachusetts Lowell poll finds Dolly Parton is the most beloved public figure in America, with net

Is it any wonder?

I have always been a huge fan of Dolly Parton. We're the same age, same height, share the same values, but she can sing better. And she has more Grammys. I've always wanted to meet her!

As a former editor of news at a regional TV station in Australia, I believe in the cause. Regional news still matters.

It was great to catch up with our good friends from Sooshi Mango today. They were kind enough to invite the family to lunch at their restaurant. Delicious food, amazing company, and a lot of laughs.

Substack's locking folks in, and it's getting worse.

We're making better tools for writers, in an open ecosystem. Hard at work on email & memberships, coming soon!

And we're building a shared standard, @standard.site, with our friends @pckt.blog & @offprint.app

Best time to move is right now ✨

Anyway follow the ESA accounts (e.g., @esa.int and @science.esa.int) -- they are great and use good alt-text so their posts are accessible to all!

This is interesting. BlueSky marked this simple and beautiful photograph as 'adult content'. I had to confirm I wanted to see it. Silly, yet it's a far better model than banning or cancelling art accounts that happens on other social networks. 👍

Trump threatens new rampage as Iran deal deadline nears The rescue of a crewman averted a potentially disastrous POW situation, but Trump’s threats showed frustration amid a dangerous and politically unpopular war.

Breaking news: President Trump renewed threats to destroy Iranian bridges and power plants if the Strait of Hormuz isn’t reopened by Tuesday night.

“The entire country can be taken out in one night, and that night might be tomorrow night,” he said.

I think the ATProtocol is far more interesting. If it has a viable funding model or other apps on it can mature quickly, it might not matter that BlueSky dies.
