Air-Conditioned

It will take years to uncover the damage created by greed and hubris.

Here’s hoping the East Wing is rebuilt as well as the gardens and all the ridiculous gold Hobby Lobby junk is yanked out.

And while he’s at it, maybe he can bring those who died that day … you know … with a simple phone call.

A lot of people in Middle Tennessee are very frustrated with the Trump administration and the Republican super majority in the state capital. I believe it is a matter of time that the seats will be flipped, maybe as soon as the midterms.

Trump may think he’s ingratiating himself to Democrats, but this pardon is one more example that Crooks run with Crooks. By the way, I don’t care how many Democrats are in the Epstein files, anyone who has proven to be guilty should serve a sentence, regardless of their political leanings

I met the love of my life on eHarmony 18 years ago, this coming January. As different from each other as we are, we also complement each other in meaningful ways. A day doesn't go by without me feeling thankful for her and what we have.

The MAGA controlled Tennessee state house eagerly supports Trump. Your vote for Aftyn Behn is a rebuke to the lies, corruption, and cruelty led by the entitled guy who posted this madness. If you are in TN, District 7, today is Election Day. Please show up and vote for Aftyn Behn. 2/2

To TN District 7 voters: today is your special Election Day and if you are on the fence, consider this. When Trump and Marsha Blackburn go out of their way to endorse a weak candidate like Van Epps, you have an opportunity to meaningfully weaken the the Republican super majority. #aftynbehn

Noem, and the entire trump administration are “entitlement junkies,” and I would be thrilled to see them all go.

US high school students developing scientific breakthroughs was inspiring. Sadly, the racist Trump administration, with its anti-DEI policies, the cutting of much-needed funding, the destruction of the Dept of Education, and the anti-brown people ICE thuggery, is actively hurting this country.

This week’s episode of Air-Conditioned shines a light on rock between 1967 and 1970. It was a musically rich time, and you can hear it in these great tracks by Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, Beatles, Cream, Allman Brothers, Steppenwolf, Blind Faith, Led Zeppelin, James Gang, and Derek & The Dominos. 1/2

How Trump went about assisting might give us some clues, concerning how he went about aiding the organization of the January 6th insurrection.

Aftyn Behn: Running for Congress in deep blue Tennessee Aftyn Behn is trying to flip a seat Donald Trump won by 22 points in a December special election. Grocery bills and corporate taxes dominate.

I’m hopeful.

It is time to make META, X, etc, more accountable. We need to break up these social media and tech monopolies. They have too much power.

Astonishingly, the guy in the Oval Office has acted like an apologist for Putin, even declaring that Ukraine started this war. One of these days, I hope he will be revealed as a traitor and Russian asset. It can’t happen soon enough. Meanwhile, the horrific carnage inflicted by Putin continues.

Dozens of adults around me were weeping. As a child, it was tough to process. In fact, it was traumatizing. It was a similar insane heaviness and disconnect when Martin Luther King was murdered in my hometown. 2/2

I remember standing in a Memphis department store, Goldsmiths, in the area where televisions were sold. There was a wall of these TVs, with dozens of adults watching the Kennedy funeral, and John F. Kennedy Jr. saluted as the casket passed. 1/2

Great album!

Those days when Todd played The Daily Planet were unforgettable. Great memories!

The same entitled "airplane" pilots who tried to normalize the swastika as not being a hate symbol.

I’ve pulled a handful of live and studio tracks. To you Todd fans, you know I can’t cover it all in an hour, but I hope this speaks to you, and maybe win some new fans. 2/3

The beloved Tennessee Troubadour Todd Snider passed away Nov 14th, supposedly of Walking Pneumonia. It was a shock to everyone in the Americana world, especially in Nashvile. This 223rd Episode of Air-Conditioned is a tribute to this beloved singer-songwriter. #toddsnider 1/3

And I will keep thanking you for posting it every day.

Leavitt is the personification of gaslighting. The cross she wears is a cold, calculating shield that keeps any self-awareness or empathy from penetrating her heart.

I can only imagine the numbers of the US deceased from trump’s inaction and denial. I know of at least a dozen folks who paraded around maskless in the name of “freedom” who are no longer here.

How do the artists and songwriters benefit from this, in a world where streaming already pays almost nothing? Someone illuminate me, please.

This development isn't surprising, sadly. All the years and life experience of creatives are being drained and repurposed to "allow users to remake songs using artificial intelligence tools." If there's any positive aspect to this, I would love to know. #KLAY 1/2
