This woman deserves recognition! This could have ended very badly. Pay attention folks. When there are school busses and/or cross guards, heighten your awareness. Well done 👏

Disney+ is raising prices AGAIN. When Disney+ launched in 2019, it was $6.99 a month and Disney was selling it as commercial-free. Now the no-ads plan is going to $21.49 a month. That’s more than triple the original price. And even the “No Ads” plan still comes with a little asterisk. Disney says ads can still show up in select live and linear programming. So we’re paying over $20 a month for the no-ads version and still not completely getting away from ads. At what point did streaming just become cable with apps?
Disney is raising the price of Disney+ again. The monthly option without ads will rise by $2.50 to $21.49 per month. (Source: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…)

His name was Carl Thomas Dean. He was twenty-one when he drove past the Wishy Washy Laundromat one day and told the young woman standing outside that she was going to get sunburned. She waved back. Years later, Dolly would explain that she was fresh from the country and had a habit of saying hello to everybody. Carl came by every day that week. They sat together on a porch, talking. Dolly wouldn't even let him come inside the house. Two years later, on May 30, 1966, they were married in a small Baptist church across the state line in Ringgold, Georgia. Dolly's mother made her wedding dress. Only three people witnessed the ceremony: her mother, the pastor and the pastor's wife. Dolly's record label had asked her to wait a year before getting married. They were worried that marriage might hurt her career. She didn't wait. Carl built a life far away from the spotlight, running an asphalt-paving business in Nashville. He had grown up in a family of three children, raised by Virginia and Edgar Dean. He wanted nothing to do with fame. For almost six decades, he rarely appeared at public events with Dolly. He preferred staying out of sight so completely that some people eventually wondered whether he even existed. In 1984, Dolly told a reporter that some people believed she had actually invented Carl just to keep other men away from her. They never had children. Instead, they had nearly sixty years of a marriage that existed mostly outside the public eye. Carl died in Nashville on March 3, 2025. He was 82. Dolly's statement was simple. Words, she said, couldn't do justice to sixty years of love. Then came the part that made the story even harder. In the months following Carl's death, Dolly quietly stopped taking care of herself. She later admitted that she had been dealing with health problems that she had largely ignored while caring for Carl during his final years. Kidney trouble. Autoimmune issues. She kept working anyway. She was still planning a museum, building her coffee brand and working on a Broadway musical about her life. Then, on August 21, 2026, Dolly was admitted to Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center in Nashville. Four days later, on August 25, 2026, she died at the age of 80 after what her representatives described as a brief battle with cancer. Her sister Stella later said that Dolly had kept the diagnosis from most of her family because she didn't want them worrying about her. A woman who had spent nearly sixty years protecting one man's privacy spent her final months doing something very similar for everyone else. She protected them from her own pain. Maybe that's what makes their story so powerful. It wasn't a love story built for headlines. It was quieter than that. Carl stayed out of the spotlight. Dolly kept working. They built a life together that millions of people barely saw. And for almost six decades, their marriage survived fame, pressure, distance and the constant attention that came with being Dolly Parton. In the end, it was a quiet, stubborn devotion that outlasted fame. It outlasted privacy. And, eventually, it outlasted her.

Daniel 6 is not a children’s bedtime story. It is a record of what happens when a man keeps praying after the government makes prayer illegal. The officials could not find corruption in Daniel, so they wrote a law around his one non-negotiable habit: he opened his windows toward Jerusalem three times a day and talked to God. Darius signed it. Daniel went home and prayed anyway. That is the whole case. The king liked Daniel. He still threw him in the den because the law he signed could not be revoked. That night Darius could not eat. At dawn he ran to the pit and called out. Daniel answered: “My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent before Him.” (Daniel 6:22) The lions were real. The stone was sealed. The angel was real. The point is not that God always removes the pit. The point is that God can keep a man alive inside the pit when the man refuses to stop belonging to Him. If your quiet time feels small this week, remember: the thing they tried to outlaw in Babylon was not a platform or a protest. It was a man on his knees in an upstairs room. That still counts. Daniel 6:10 — He continued to pray as he had done before. Daniel 6:22 — My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths. Lord, make us that faithful when the decree is signed and the den is already dug. Amen. #Daniel #Faithfulness #BibleStudy #LionsDen #ChristianFaith
The servant woke up and saw only what his eyes could measure: an army, horses, chariots, no way out. Elisha saw the same hillside and was not afraid. Not because the enemy was small. Because the enemy was not the whole picture. “Do not fear,” he said. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” Then he prayed one sentence that still changes people: “Lord, open his eyes so that he may see.” The hills were not empty. They never had been. Horses and chariots of fire already stood around the prophet. The force sent to capture him was itself surrounded by something it could not see. That is the heart of 2 Kings 6. Fear counts soldiers. Faith asks God to show what is already there. The story does not end with the fire. When the blinded army is led into Samaria and their sight returns, the king of Israel wants to strike them down. Elisha says no. Feed them. Give them water. Send them home. Mercy, not slaughter, is how the prophet answers the men who came for him. Most of us live on the servant’s side of the wall. We see the ring around the city and call it the whole truth. Bills. Diagnosis. A child who wandered. A night that will not lift. We freeze because what we can see looks final. This account does not tell us the threat was imaginary. It tells us the threat was incomplete. The greater army was already in place. The prayer was not “make the enemy disappear.” It was “let him see what You have already stationed here.” If you woke up this morning and the hills looked empty, that is not proof they are empty. Ask the same thing Elisha asked. Not for a different circumstance first. For open eyes. Those who are with you are still more. 2 Kings 6:16–23 #Faith #BibleStory #Elisha #OpenMyEyes #MercyNotFear

I had plenty of cassettes (in the '80s, who didn't?), but I'm choosing vinyl. There's just something about the sound of a record—the little crackle before the music starts and a much richer sound—that a cassette never quite gave me. ❤️ VINYL or CASSETTE — which side are you on?

Al surveillance being placed on trash trucks has become a discussion among some cities. This system is already in place in Dallas, TX and Mesa, AZ but Cape Coral, FL delayed the approval. The alleged purpose is to save tax payer dollars and prevent illegal dumping, but the system cost the City of Dallas $2.55M for a 3 year contract and cost Mesa $480k. This system is just a way to take our privacy away, just like how in 2027 all cars will be made with interior ai surveillance. If we don't speak up now, the future will be without privacy or freedom.

The Pledge of Allegiance is not a campaign slogan. It is a civic promise written in 1892 by Francis Bellamy for schoolchildren, and Congress added the words “under God” in 1954. The line that still matters most is “to the republic for which it stands.” A republic is not a mood. It is a form of government in which power is held by the people through law, not by a king, a mob, or a party that never has to answer to anyone. “Indivisible” means the states are bound together. “Liberty and justice for all” is the standard the country is supposed to meet — not a weapon to aim at neighbors. I personally still say these words because they belong to the whole country: veterans who served under that flag, families who taught them at the kitchen table, and kids who stand for them in a classroom. You do not have to agree with every politician of the moment to keep the pledge. You only have to mean the sentence. 🇺🇸 #PledgeOfAllegiance #OneNationUnderGod #AmericanFlag

Hulu isn't treating the 2016 clown panic like some goofy internet story. For Clown Panic, director Ed Perkins is going back through the actual material that made the whole thing explode. Local news footage, cellphone videos, 911 calls, viral clips, and new interviews with witnesses, law enforcement, professional clowns and cultural commentators. What made the whole thing so strange was how far it went beyond people just dressing up like clowns. It started with reports in South Carolina and eventually turned into police calls, school lockdowns and sightings being reported all over the country. Professional clowns even got caught in the middle of it while social media kept feeding the fear. Hulu is basically rebuilding the panic from the inside and looking at how one bizarre story spread so fast that people started wondering if a clown might actually be standing out in the woods somewhere. Ten years later, Clown Panic is bringing the whole strange mess back for Huluween. Do you remember how crazy the clown sightings got in 2016?

We had some new visitors tonight—meet Bonnie and Clyde! 🦆❤️ These two Black-bellied Whistling-Ducks showed up after a big Florida downpour, and they seemed perfectly happy with all the water everywhere. They were walking around like they owned the place! I’ve noticed that these ducks are almost always together in pairs, and these two definitely seem to have their little routine figured out. Black-bellied Whistling-Ducks are such interesting birds. They have long necks and legs, reddish-pink bills, and beautiful brown, black, white, and gray feathers. They love being around water, especially ponds, wetlands, and areas where rainwater collects. So after tonight’s downpour, Bonnie and Clyde were definitely in their happy place. Of course, they discovered the chicken scratch I put out, too. I love watching them because when one is eating, the other stands guard. Then they switch. They stay close to each other, and it’s actually pretty sweet to watch. I guess when you’re Bonnie and Clyde, you stick together! I was also happy to see little Henry, the ibis, tonight. I hadn’t seen him in a few days so I was worried. He is missing one claw and limps, but he still manages to get around and enjoy some food. Seeing him always makes me smile, and I’m glad he continues to visit. Between Bonnie and Clyde, my wood storks, black vultures, ibis, egrets, and squirrels, I never know who is going to show up next. My yard has definitely become a gathering place for my feathered friends, and honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way. Living in Florida means there’s always something interesting happening right outside my door. #BlackBelliedWhistlingDucks #HenryTheIbisBird #WhistlingDucks #BonnieAndClyde #FloridaBirds #BackyardBirds #FloridaWildlife #WildlifeWatching #BirdsOfFlorida #FeatheredFriends #WetlandBirds #BirdLife
Mohawk, aka Moe, got to come visit me today, and of course, seeing him always makes my day! Moe is a juvenile Wood Stork, and you can tell he’s still young by the feathering around his head. Today, I found him standing in the water right next to the house, just doing what Moe does and enjoying his little spot. There’s something so special about seeing him become a regular visitor. I’ve gotten to know his personality, and he has definitely become one of my favorite Wood Storks. I love watching the birds around my house because each one seems to have its own personality. You just never know who is going to stop by for a visit—or where they’ll be standing when you look outside! I honestly never take these visits for granted. Living in Southwest Florida, I feel so lucky to have nature right outside my door. Whether it’s Moe standing in the water, an egret stopping by, or black vultures passing through, there is always something interesting happening. These unexpected little moments are some of my favorite parts of the day, and today, Moe was the star of the show!

Washington is full of people who can read a brief. Far fewer can walk into a neighborhood bar, pour a round, and not look like they were dropped there by a motorcade. This is Vice President JD Vance in a regular sports bar with tap handles, paper boats of food, phones in the air, a country song on the speakers. The joke on the screen is “a vice president that can do both.” The real point is older than the joke: Americans still want officers who remember what a Tuesday afternoon looks like when you are not on camera. A vice president’s job is still the Constitution: succeed the president if needed, break ties in the Senate, and represent the country. None of that is done with a pint glass. What a stop like this does show is temperament. He is not lecturing the room. He is in it. You can like the policy or argue the policy. That is separate. This clip is just a reminder that public office does not have to sand every human edge off the person holding it. I personally think he is the best vice president we have ever had! That’s my opinion, not a scoreboard.

Mainstream media is making President Trump's White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller look like a Nazi that's trying to murder children. Media outlets that have turned their brainwashed based into assassins due to LYING rhetoric just like this, are wondering why they're banned from the White House.
