Nashville guy interested in universal health care, family, Vandy sports, the Methodist church, travel, Labrador retrievers, and kindness. Not in any order. All of that, all the time. Set to an insufferable Rush and U2-heavy playlist.
Terrific article, from Dave Macon to Lainey Wilson, and addresses something that had caught my attention… how in the world did Kathy Mattea just get inducted last month.

One hundred years ago this week, the radio barn dance that came to be known as the Grand Ole Opry was first broadcast from Nashville. Being part of the show still matters to country artists today. n.pr/4iiYWUG
At 100 years old, the Grand Ole Opry is the keeper of country music's legacy

Fascinating story about this Austrian painting.

But for me, the pun near the end of the article may be the real masterwork.

Our health care system is so broken it’s insane.

Stop letting them make you believe a better one is impossible.

schooling JD Vance on rednecks - delicious
JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.

Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

I don’t understand the point Dr. Oz is trying to make. I made no claims on my home or car insurance this year. Is that a failure of the insurance somehow? Does he understand it’s no frills, catastrophic coverage vs the Cadillac gov’t plan he now has for life?

I think Trump, Vance, etc, would agree with her on this, and hope people will encourage them to keep saying so out loud. Not to support them makes you/us losers.
Q: “Most hospitals + people who will lose insurance are in rural areas. If Trump & Republicans are so intent on sticking it to their own voters, why not let them?”
