Rick Barnes might have his detractors, but I think a winning coach who insists on doing it the right way, cutting no corners, playing within the rules, deserves our appreciation and support. We might never win it all, but at least we're still banging away, year after year! Go Vols! #VolSky #GBO

There were times when he made us crazy, tonight, but without Nate Ament they wouldn't be going to the Sweet Sixteen. Have to remember he's just a freshman, making freshman mistakes. But he played with aggression when it mattered, and the Vols carry on! #Vols #NCAA #sweetsixteen #GBO

YES!!!! Go Big Orange!!! #vols

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG…. Don’t fold, Vols!

Good start. Go Vols! #volsky

Are any of my #volsky fans feeling optimistic about today's matchup with Virginia? I'm suffering from an acute case of Vol Derangement Syndrome and can't help but expect the worst. Someone out there convince me we can win this game? #VolSky #GBO #Vols #Tennesseebasketball #UTvrsUVa

Bird of the Day theme is "migratory", so here's a couple of rose-breasted grosbeaks and indigo buntings who stopped by heading north or south at some point in the past. #migratory #birds #BirdOfTheDay #rosebreastedgrowbeak #indigobunting #wildlifephotography #originalphotos

This portrait is a lot closer to the truth than most Americans are willing to admit. #FDJT #PrezPedo

Upon learning of the death of the American patriot Robert Mueller, Trump wrote, "Robert Mueller is dead. Good, I'm glad he's dead! He will no longer be able to hurt innocent people. President DONALD J. TRUMP." No one should complain when we openly celebrate HIS passing with a global party!

I'm curious to know how BlueSky's algorithms work. Yesterday posted the photo on the right, and it got over 250 likes overnight. Today I posted the shot on the left, and it's gotten my usual five or six. Same lake. Basically the same photo concept. Two completely different results. Anyone???

Our president is a classless, hateful piece of shit. #robertmueller #mueller #DJT #FDJT www.mediaite.com/politics/tru...

Woke up this morning (didn't have those Statesboro Blues) but I did ask aloud, "Is he gone, yet?" Nope. So, stepping back from the mental abyss, let's look at a nice landscape. I took this at Reelfoot Lake just at sunrise: #ReelfootLake #originalphoto #westTN #landscape #nature #saysomethingnice

While we await the next disaster from Washington, let's distract ourselves with pretty pictures. Here's Reelfoot Lake at sunset. #reelfootlake #westtennessee #originalphoto #landscape

Iran has had 47 years to put sleeper cells into American society. The coming attack might dwarf 9/11. Think FEMA’s response to flooding in North Carolina was botched? Imagine these idiots handling a dirty bomb, or a coordinated attack on soft targets. We’re about to find out. #Omg

Trump's solution to the Strait of Hormuz being closed? Go golfing. It's going to unclog itself, according to dear leader. #straitofhormuz #impeachthismoron www.mediaite.com/media/tv/tru...

I've gotten a ton of new followers today, and I want to thank each of you individually. So, when you have time, give me a call and we'll talk! If any of you are easily offended by brutally frank, crude, vulgar, sarcastic, snarky comments, I apologize in advance. I'm doing my best to behave...

#VolSky Gillespie is carrying us. Ament is no show again.

This!

Yep!

Any of you in #BreakfastCrew resisters like to have a huge breakfast for supper? I'm talking homestyle fried potatoes, bacon, omelets, biscuits, homemade salsa (for the eggs) and jelly (for the biscuits)? Garden tomatoes? Sometimes, that's perfect! #smokymountainschalet #smokies #homesweethome

That Kentucky/Santa Clara regulation finish was the most exciting I've seen in years! Go find a replay of the final ten seconds if you didn't see it! #Vols #VolSky #marchmadnessmayhem #kentucky #santaclara #NCAA

I miss the Smoky Mountains so much... Only three hours away, but we don't get over there as often as I need to. #smokymountains #cadescove #appalachia #homesweethometome #rockytop #goVols #Volsky

We're all waiting for the same obituary. But does anyone actually believe this "most transparent administration" would actually tell us if the bastard died during the night? They'd spend a day or two jockeying for position on the MAGA totem pole, first. Hide and watch. It's going to happen.

Bird of the Day theme is "grounded" or alt theme "silhouette", so here's a silhouette of a sparrow with husky fur in its beak, along with a towhee, a Cooper's hawk, and a robin on the ground. The hawk was patrolling our garden. #BirdOfTheDay #towhee #Coopershawk #robin #originalphotos #wildlife

The grift keeps getting bigger. Tariffs were a way for Trump to extort our trading partners to line his cronies’ pockets.

@alan678.bsky.social I may be a day late to the "land and water" theme, but here goes nonetheless. All photos taken in Murfreesboro, Tn. #BirdOfTheDay #greatblueheron #grackle #originalphotos #wildlifephotography #canonwildlifephotography #canon5Dmii

Bluesky desperately needs a refresh button that actually takes us to the most recent posts under "Discover". Hitting refresh to see a post from 19 hours ago isn't 'refreshing'. It's stupid. Fix this. (and add an edit button, ffs...)

No more excuses for funding social programs.

Kegseth must’ve been really popular at his frat parties, towel snappin’ back slappin’ testosterone sloshin’ bravado spewin’ jackass. Pride of his incel club. What a fucking clown.

Brutal David, Brutal........

The middle east is on fire, our president is dangerously mentally ill, Congress is twiddling thumbs while our airports jam clog up like a sinus infection, and Epstein survivors still have no justice. But CNN is breathlessly promoting video footage of a cop chasing a minibike in OKC. #CNN

@robcrank68.bsky.social Red tailed hawk, ruby throated hummingbird, indigo bunting, and our state bird, the mockingbird. #BirdOfTheDay #originalphotos #middleTN

@robcrank68.bsky.social "perched" bird pix? Sometimes they're as graceful as gymnasts or pole dancers striking a pose. Here's a female rose breasted grosbeak, a red-winged blackbird, a house finch, and a ruby throated hummingbird perched on a trumpet vine blossom. #BirdOfTheDay #originalphotos

We may be headed for a global recession, but at least we didn't have to hold pedophiles accountable for raping kids. #Epstein #distraction #squirrel #heylookshinything #releasethefiles #Irandiversion #globalrecession #impeachpedoprez #trumprapedkids #dontstoptalkingaboutepstein #justiceforsurvivors

Happy St. Patty's Day! #StPatricksDay

"Is there someone else up there we can talk to?" (I had to resort to Photoshop to make this meme... feel free to share!) #MontyPython #laughingFrenchmen #Itoldhimwealreadygotone #Trump #NATO #hormuzstrait #moroninchief

You know why Bernie Madoff is the only white collar criminal to actually go to prison in the US in the last 15 years? Because Madoff had the temerity to rip off really rich people...

What's the difference between America's involvement in Vietnam and America's war with Iran? Donald Trump had an exit plan for Vietnam.

@robcrank68.bsky.social If I'm right, today's theme is "reflections". Got a few to share: great blue heron, female cardinal, a mallard, and male wood duck. #BirdOfTheDay #originalphotos #canonwildlifephotography #birds #greatblueheron #cardinal #woodduck

😯

Artists have been creating divinely inspired beauty since the beginning of time & white men w/ small dicks can’t stop raping children & blowing it all up JESUS CHRIST STOP 🤯🤯🤯🤬🤬🤬🤬

They’re telling me a great empire will be destroyed if I attack Persia. Even the oracles who don’t like me very much, very nasty, they all said to me, “Sir, it’s one of the great empires, and it’ll be destroyed. And all because you attacked Persia.” That’s what they’re telling me.

I hope this late hard freeze doesn't take out our irises! #gardening #iris #originalphoto

Ever watch one of those CIA spy shows like Homeland, and in it some miraculous action by someone we never hear of saves the world from nuclear annihilation? I think about that a lot, now that there are morons in charge of our survival.

Watching Trump scramble to find help with his Strait of Hormuz problem reminds me of the Eddie Izzard pilgrim sketch in his "Dress to Kill" special. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrOg...

Imagine Melania's acceptance speech for her documentary's Oscar: "I vuz vunce poor eemigrant. Then, I find and blow old reech man. Now, I be best! Sank you, Amereeca!"

Trump will soon blast the Oscars for not nominating his mail order bride's documentary, the one he coerced his buddy Jeff Bezos into making. "Everybody knows it was a rigged vote, a witch hunt hoax by the fake "Academy" full of lunatic radical Antifa leftist Hollywood elites." Wait and see.
