    I don’t know if you’re allowed to be an avatar of compassion if you’re worth nearly half a billion dollars.

    Edit: Eat the rich! But not this one…

      And she could have been worth so much fucking more. I’m not a celebrity worshipper, and God knows I’m not an apologist for the rich, but no. Dolly was absolutely an avatar for human compassion. She was human, and had faults, but she did more good in this world than she did wrong, and she did more good than anyone else I’ve ever seen in similar positions. She was my best friend’s aunt, and even the inner circle family never really had anything negative to say about her, other than that she kept herself so busy worried about others that they worried about her.

      Wat h Lindsey Ellis’s video on her, if you want. https://youtu.be/uJuKN0chAZk
