Hi friends! As you know, we’re in a long cold stretch of winter. It’s warmed up a tad but the low on Friday is currently 14 degrees. We go out whenever the Metro shelter is open to give rides & supplies to our neighbors. We go through a lot & could use a restock!

This reads like an article from The Onion. Guess that new zoning won't be headed for Belle Meade, right @quinevanssegall.bsky.social? #ToneDeaf

Or here’s an idea…take the cap of SS contributions and use those billions to insure retirement funding for everyone of those kids!!!!
Breaking News: Michael and Susan Dell said they would put $250 in individual investment accounts for 25 million American children, expanding the reach of soon-to-be-created "Trump accounts."

Good for her. Any current Vanderbilt students or alumni doing the same? @sportssocietyvu.bsky.social ???
A University of Tennessee student is asking her school to sign a national letter denouncing political interference in higher education. WPLN's Camellia Burris says Jenna Ciesla started a @changedotorg.bsky.social petition calling for UT to join the universities who have signed.

Sincerely hoping reports of MNPD involvement are not true, but it needs to be investigated @freddieoconnell.bsky.social @jordanhuffmantn.bsky.social @erinfor12.bsky.social

As our TN leadership brags about its “fiscal responsibility”, here’s what a typical drivers service center looks like at 9 am. It’s not responsible if you’re not providing basic services in an effective manner. Oh, & the state police officer screaming at everyone in line added lots to the ambiance.
