open ur eyez lyk I opened mine. (It's only the real world.)

Shortly after the success of The Buddy Program, Parton learned in dealing with teachers from the school district that problems in education often begin during first grade when kids are at different developmental levels. That year The Dollywood Foundation paid the salaries for additional teachers assistants in every first grade class for the next 2 years, under the agreement that if the program worked, the school system would effectively adopt and fund the program after the trial period.

During the same period, Parton founded the Imagination Library in 1995: The idea being that children from her rural hometown and low-income families often start school at a disadvantage and as a result, will be unfairly compared to their peers for the rest of their lives, effectively encouraging them not to pursue higher education. The objective of the Imagination library was that every child in Sevier County would receive one book, every month, mailed and addressed to the child, from the day they were born until the day they started kindergarten, 100% free of charge. What began as a hometown initiative now serves children in all 50 states, Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom, mailing thousands of free books to children around the world monthly.

On March 1, 2018 Parton donated her 100 millionth book at the Library of Congress: a copy of "Coat of Many Colors" dedicated to her father, who never learned to read or write.

The entirety of the blue section is all of the International section on Europe (interestingly it's got Turkey at the end.)

That yellow box? ALL of Africa.

Just size comparison and context, that orange section is Japan. One singular country vs an entire continent. Every time we say "African" versus having specific European countries and cultures to reference... That's not coincidental!

There are tons of bookstores around my university- which makes sense, of course- and you'll get hundreds about European culture, war, history, people, plans for the future, everything, down to like, idfk, bike history in Denmark or something.

You go to the brown people section- I remember excitedly looking for 'Pakistan'- and there were two.

right

tumblr. discord even. literally any social media platform. there are roleplaying communities out there. do it with some friends. if you dont have access to any of this roleplay with yourself!!! talk to yourself and act it out. i do this all the time. way better than wasting water.

"i use c.ai to cope!"

there are better things you can do. i was like you once. read fanfiction, draw, go outside, exercise, play with a pet or a friend, do anything other than something harmful to you or the environment. help is out there.

"i use c.ai because i dont like fanfiction!"

c.ai steals and feeds fanfiction into its little greedy fat water-wasting servers to make you a story. if you like what c.ai is generating you, fanfiction websites will have this kind of stuff guaranteed!! and with better writing!! made by a human without wasting water!!
