My goodness

LOVE when I see electeds understand the importance of lending their platform to naming and shaming. There’s plenty that can’t be done in the court and a decent amount of that can be addressed with putting the spotlight on bad behavior.

For Monday: transit oriented pizza (with $10 going to second harvest) and $2 beers for the wet January folks

They should give Ka'imi Fairbairn a couple of mvp votes

Cities can just do stuff

Make The Buses Great Again

Maduro, a former bus driver, now sits in Federal prison. A stark lesson for Mamdani as he tries to make the buses free. @nytpitchbot.bsky.social

There really should have been a heads up about this prior to committing to do dry January

"I'm so sorry that we could not have done this earlier...to have saved the loved ones in your life. But I thank you fopr the work that you have done...to ensure that this pain not be felt by others who call this same city home." — Mayor Mamdani at McGuinness Blvd. presser youtube.com/shorts/uwAYI...

If you like how things are going keep driving your car!

He f’d around and found out is now us official foreign policy? Wtaf

It hasn’t even been a full year of this.

This all seems pretty unbecoming of a FIFA Peace Prize winner

Good stuff here

NDOT should put physical protection (car-stopping bollards) at bus stops so ppl stop getting killed by cars crashing into the stops. Cars recklessly speed by the stop all day. Bus riders are treated as 2nd class in Nashville.

I just need metro council members to not instinctively say the words “you cant infrastructure your way out of things like this”. There is an existing curb cut here that if you removed, youd probaly make it a little bit harder to drive on the sidewalk www.wsmv.com/2026/01/01/n...

Exclusionary zoning overlay at planning next week.

We should try this on a couple routes. See what happens. www.wsmv.com/2026/01/01/m...

this morning I visited one of our neighborhood holy sites and pledged a solemn vow to do everything within my power to ensure the Edgehill/Chestnut concrete protected bike lanes are built in 2026

Captains log: day 2/365. The fun and joy of day 1 have made way to a member of the crew with a 104+ fever. She refuses medication. All productive activities have ceased. We shall stare at the little blue and orange dogs and wait out the storm.

1/365 in the bag

Mamdani: I have been told that this is the occasion to reset expectations, that I should use this opportunity to encourage the people of New York to ask for little and expect even less. I will do no such thing. The only expectation I seek to reset is that of small expectations.

2026: the year of hot dog carts on every corner

If you have pmi on your mortgage, the large increase in assessments might mean you could get that removed. Worth a call to your loan servicer to see if their rules allow it. Some are original loan value and some allow adding equity.

What would be Nashville’s symbolic equivalent of the city hall subway station for a swearing in ceremony?

And just like that, it’s the start of Q1. May it be the best one yet.

Hi I’m barbed wire running across the creek

I think we are doing hot pot tonight. Sending out 25 early and with a bang

100% agree with their recommendation

Nashville's population density in 1930

Everyone who drives someone to or from the airport should pay a fee - not just ride hail drivers and passengers.

Not a cargo bike but also not a full size pickup

What a shame.

Another benefit from living in a dense urban neighborhood: old stove gone from the curb in less than 1 business day

Fair.

We did it Joe

Motorists call people on bikes "entitled" when they ask for basic infrastructure, yet car culture has no idea what it's like to have their lane just end.

It’s the last Monday of the year. I’ll be heading to Dicey’s around 515-530ish to enjoy some $10 pitchers and wishing the full priced pizza was the half price wing special. Always a seat at the table*

Nobody wants to play defense anymore

The celebration was top notch

Maybe a new measure for a downtown stadium is some distance away from multiple buildings that are at least 75’ tall.

Pretty good discussion from the former director of data and innovation

Great work @nashvilledot.bsky.social

Dart is going to have a great 2-3 year career

I have heard that copper was expensive but now I know that copper is expensive.

What if we made the titans play 365 days a year?

One incredible perk of living in a dense urban neighborhood: you can just get takeout food from 3 different places instead of getting 3 people to decide on one place.
