Nashville. Book, movie, and music appreciator. At an age where I get really excited about cool trees and birds. Figuring it out as I go.

When my dad passed in 2014, I realized one of my most treasured memories was him reading to me as a child. It’s a silly thing, but I realized I was the only person who ever heard him do a leprechaun voice for a story, that small piece of him is carried just by me. He was a librarian 🧡

He leaves office at the end of the year - this is a dodge on Lee’s part.

“Halting executions for the year” just means Governor Lee is taking pressure off himself until he leaves office at the end of this term and letting it be the next governor’s issue. Cowardly.

This is not at all the point of this video (it’s awful that we can’t trust our food supply), but it’s a little funny that this guy also captured that lady hitting her head on the overhang at about 42 sec rem.

I just got notified that I was the victim of a data breach from a summer job I held more than 20 years ago, and I feel like there should be some laws with teeth to hold these companies accountable for their data retention and security practices.

We really got to move away from red state/blue state framing because it obscures more than it illuminates.

I also wonder if it’s a smokescreen - the tech is portrayed as big and scary so no one looks too closely at the greedy, morally bankrupt fools running the tech industry. I am the great and powerful Oz, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, etc.

Not too odd, but my first job as a young teenager was assisting with private swimming lessons for little kids an older woman did in her backyard pool. She almost never got in the water, kept apologizing to parents for how incompetent I supposedly was, and then was shocked when I quit after 3 weeks.

Protest that endures, I think, is moved by a hope far more modest than that of public success: namely, the hope of preserving qualities in one's own heart and spirit that would be destroyed by acquiescence. Wendell Berry, What Are People For?

Honestly I’m just glad other people are seeing it. This is part of why I deleted Instagram and really only do text-based social media like this, because I simply cannot tolerate one more breathless explanation video about something that does not matter.

there is a tired line of out-of-touch argument from Bluesky leftists that the difference between Rs & Ds is so insignificant that you're just being an "electoralist" if you care which party is in power With you there, in a lot of places. But elections sure as hell do matter in immigration court

These reporters should be smart enough to know that even if they acknowledge the public facing commentary as kayfabe and the private stuff as “the real work”, by rolling with it like it’s normal you become an active participant in that kayfabe and what it’s designed to accomplish.

Any baked good really, but my go-to for most fruits that might be on the edge and need to be cooked is to make a cobbler. While not a conventional cobbler, the strawberry ones I’ve made in the past have been good. 🤷‍♀️

It’s a just-in-case, bc you miss them when you don’t have them. Like to be out with a small purse and suddenly find that you need your phone out, they’re sending you home with something, your friend asks you to hold a thing, all while you need to put hands on a key? You wish for pockets in that time

When people on the left try to define positive masculinity, they land on things like "strong, smart, kind, responsible." Well, golly! Aren't those also the qualities you ascribe to positive femininity? So how are they different? They're not. So why do we need different words?

“They approved the single largest publicly funded, privately owned sports stadium in human history, which the NFL wants to reward so other cities do it next” is the actual answer.
Screenshot of a Nashville Tennessean article headlined “How did Nashville get Super Bowl in 2030? Inside the decades-long momentum,” by Molly Davis and Nick Suss, published May 19, 2026. Below the headline is a video thumbnail showing the Nashville skyline along the Cumberland River, with a riverboat docked in the foreground and the AT&T Building visible among downtown high-rises. A “Key Points” section beneath notes that Nashville is the host city for Super Bowl LXIV in February 2030 and that the city’s tourism leaders have worked for decades to prime Nashville for major events like the Super Bowl.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I loved this book and it led me to read the nonfiction book American Chestnut by Susan Frienkel and I got deep into a chestnut phase. I found a local farm that sells the 15/16ths hybrid chestnuts and gave them as gifts a few Christmases ago, everyone was tired of me and the chestnuts 😂.

I recently learned that some of the big smoothie chains will make you one with a half portion of the added sugar, and it still very much holds up, even the green ones (my standard order). Maybe not “good” for you, but less bad!

I’m not directly connected to the bench project as others are but I’ve been observing. If the benches are valuable/in demand enough for legislation, then they’re worth permanently installing. Seems like a way for Metro/WeGo to avoid owning the clearly demonstrated service/infrastructure gap.
