Unless you lived in that part of the country, and then all of a sudden your vote really, really matters. A very lot. Which is a nice feeling to have, actually. Kinda rare, especially in a trifecta Republican state.

thanks for the correction. Sure.

And not even to mention the most evil and obvious cover up happening involving some of the most powerful men in the world. Seeing this timeline as "post-law" can be summed up in 6 words: Epstein Files And The Panama Papers. So much law breaking, so little enforcement, and absolutely zero justice.

Every hour of every day is another example of the' Administration doing something that we were all told growing up was wrong. Despite "losing cases," there seems to be no real consequences. Innocent people are going to jail and guilty people are being set free. And no one seems to be able to stop it

Hundreds of people are still being extradited daily without due process. We're watching frauds and drug dealers being pardoned. We're watching a US President take gold bars and crypto as gifts despite the Emoluments clause OF THE US FUCKING CONSTITUTION. Losing court cases, sure. Yet he persists.

There's definitely a lot of money being poured into the TN-7 election judging by the flood of fundraising texts I'm getting - several an hour. YEAH THAT DEFINITELY MAKES ME WANT TO GIVE (MORE) and vote for the candidate with eight phone numbers saying "hey, it's me..." But yeah, vote y'all.

Anti-corruption seems a very strong issue to get Republicans to vote for @aftynbehn.bsky.social . Way more than affordability and healthcare, IMO. While it's important to get Dems out, it's also critical to erode the R vote, no?

TN-7: please vote early. Absolutely make a plan to do it.

And the free market is serving us so well recently. Such efficience.

It's hoss-style and unbecoming. I'm sorry but sometimes voices need to be raised.

Better start watching your back, bruh, for shimmery anomalies in your space.

The as-yet untold story of the government shutdown: neighbors creating food pantries and stone soup kitchens for their neighbors. America being already great despite itself.

Today's the day, I heard. Let me know when the alien(s) from 3i Atlas drop their diss track.

"Are you a pimp?"

A new study of 2 million people using mobile phone data shows that walkable neighborhoods mean people walk more. Which means healthier humans.

Nashville Bluesky pattern: housing, transportation, and crime during the week, sportsball sidechannel on the weekend.

"Oh, the places you'll go... next on PBN..."

Revolting.

Yabbut how do you handle one that consistently refuses to pay their late fees? Eviction (over here at least) is damn near impossible.

The initial offers in the "CBA" were enticing to a beleaguered District 1, and also super ambiguous - like giving 150k over some years to a yet-to-be formed community 501c3 to spend on whatever. Sounds ok on a white board, but details matter(ed). It was sensationalist for NC5 to frame it like that.

Yeahhhh, it's not "100% in agreement" about this right now, by a long shot. There've been 6 community mtgs over 2+ years abt this w/ consistent contention over land use policy and community costs/benefits. A well-funded canvassing campaign over the last 2 years has activated new vocal support (viz).

Ed Zebra was returned home safely today. Seriously thought for a minute "Wow, Amazon drones can deliver anything" and then I thought "NOW I REALLY WANT TO ORDER A ZEBRA THROUGH AMAZON"

I really wish throwing shit in the river we all get our drinking water from wasn't a punchline, much less a thing people do for some reason. Jelly Roll throws a cellphone into the Cumberland as a Christmas tradition (please pick a new tradition, JR, ly!). Normalize not throwing shit in the river.

We're just one court judgment away from this being any of us.

I'd like to see a free market adjustment of incentives that result in regenerative instead of exploitive practices.

When do we have to start referring to him as "Dear Leader"

This implies that there is an amount that is "enough" for billionaires. We should start asking grift deniers "How much is enough money for a billionaire, then?"

What's the monthly mortgage work out?

Yes, but it's always a foul ball, so you can never get there. You have to throw your signals, make the running slide, then get back up and walk back to second. For eternity.
