Twenty hours in and it's up to me to remind people that Dolly Parton is the full package?

She's got tunes, OK 'I Will Always Love You' is a bit cloying but the rumour is that she also wrote Jolene the same day
She supports other women. When porn star Julia Parton was around and telling people that she was Dolly's cousin, Dolly's public response was something like, 'She ain't my cousin but I can't condemn what she does... it's not like I ever tried to hide my breasts. Good luck to her.'
She produced Buffy The Vampire Slayer through her production company Sanddollar. She kept a low profile publicly but behind the scenes was very supportive of the show because it provided good role models for young women.
She funds the Dolly Parton Imagination library which mails free books to kids under five.

She also had an awesome cameo in The Orville.

True, the only thing I remotely have an issue with is her southern revisionism restaurants.

Like what’s going with that?

Southern revisionism, it was a trade dispute not about slavery. It's not wrong really just I dunno whitewashed and myopic.
