I'm an Aftyn supporter, but this is nonsense. Grijalva is the 218th vote whether Behn wins or not. This comes across as dishonest, at least to me. We expect this sort of fearmongering from Republicans, not Democrats.

The sandwich thrower jury is instructed to follow the court’s instructions to the best of their a BLT.

How is Matt Van Epps so bad at this?

Matt "Just say deliberate" Van Epps. I worked with this guy. He's the absolute definition of a yes man, and he's clearly gotten his orders on this. The amount of pure loser behavior on display here is embarrassing. Good thing people like him have no shame. We need @aftynbehn.bsky.social to win.

This was my experience last night. Ended up at a small party at the home of the parents of one of my kid’s friends. Met a bunch of other parents I didn’t know, kids went out in a pack to trick or treat, and a good time was had by all.

More of this from Democrats, please. We accept their framing without question far too often.

He really is Kenny Powers. “I can already tell that I don’t like you, and I’m probably not gonna like you, no matter how many pull-ups or pushups you do.” youtu.be/BPKUhXkP7tY?...

We're calling him Diarrhea Don. He's owning the libs so hard with this, it's brilliant. Everyone talking about the president's uncontrollable bowels, how manly and cool his uncontrollably explosive shits are.

This is a wild argument. The Saudi people didn't pay her, the murderous, awful govt did. No way she's this stupid. No one should have done this festival, but if you did, your best course of action is to STFU about it forever. There's no reasonable justification, you just wanted the paycheck.

Reminder that this state law, the PEACE Act, came straight from Metro’s version - thanks to @freddieoconnell.bsky.social & heavy lobbying from the Jewish Federation.

3 random things about me 1. I was once one step away from being on Nashville Star. Sometimes not getting something is a blessing in disguise. 2. I once did promotions for cigarettes in gas stations as a job. 3. I ran the only half marathon of my life solely to prank my college roommate.

Sometimes I think they are just fucking with us.

This seems like a nonsensical position until you realize that they do not expect to ever have a fair election again. They aren’t worried about accountability because they don’t plan on ever facing any.

Satire has become our new reality. This is such a dark day, y’all.

I’m really grateful for Pritzker. But that he’s so good at this also makes clear just how badly most other Democrats are failing to meet the moment.

Should come as no surprise that an owner that won’t pay for their own stadium also won’t pay for a good team or coaching staff. Congrats Nashville, we bought a bottom feeder team for the low price of a billion dollars. Will never forgive the Council for approving this garbage.

I understand the sentiment here, but do not accept this framing! Republicans want to do both, do not be fooled. We fight for healthcare and we fight for government workers. Republicans are trying to destroy healthcare AND fire a huge swath of government employees. That is the right framing.

Tennessee taxpayers face steep, $110M+ price tag for SNAP after Big Beautiful Bill shifted more of the food program's costs to states The feds set all benefit/eligibility rules, leaving little room to cut costs - except to end SNAP in Tennessee entirely tennesseelookout.com/2025/09/22/o...

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Time to cancel those Disney Plus memberships, y’all.

@alexhorne.bsky.social excited to snag last minute tix to a Taskmaster taping tomorrow! We are boarding a flight from Nashville, TN to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary! Fingers crossed that our flight lands on time. Just spent over two hours in traffic, but we made it. See you soon!

You should read the full thread.

Just a reminder that you don’t HAVE to talk about tomorrow tomorrow, nor do you HAVE to post photos or stories with thumbnails of photos, and certainly not videos. We all know what tomorrow is. We did not forget. Maybe tomorrow could just be Thursday. Thanks in advance.

Some real loser behavior from all four of these imbeciles. Republican voters should be embarrassed by these pitiful displays of sycophancy.

Same vibe.

Making them wear high-visibility vests over camo is such a good joke you couldn’t write it

Hopeful news out of Iowa. What would it take in Tennessee?

From the people that will spend an hour telling you about how kids these days expect participation trophies, I give you the guy that just gives himself awards. A+, no notes.

Would vote for this horse.

Absolutely wild that the right’s take on Superman is that he’s not Homelander enough.

"Could" is doing some heavy lifting in this headline.

Every single Den who voted against this needs a primary.

This is why it's so hard to support the Democratic party right now. 128 voted against impeaching Trump! They should all face tough primaries because of this alone.

Could not have met my expectations any more than this.

We need to know this man’s name. Did he get booked?

An uplifting and amazing protest at the Capitol today. Literally thousands of people. So encouraging to see it all and be a part of it.

Huge crowds gathered in and around Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park for Nashville’s No Kings rally.

No Kings includes Draft Kings

About to head out to No Kings Day in Nashville. Who will I see there? I hope most of you!

We were in the last aisle of the plane, and Pam Tillis came and stood beside my seat to wait for the bathroom. She complimented our baby and was generally quite lovely.

I’ll be the first to agree TNDP needs to get it together re: comminications. I’d love some feedback from folks: -Do you hear from/follow TNDP and does anything resonate with you? -What’s important to you in a Democratic candidate? -What would you want to know in a weekly update?

Do I know anyone with a 3D printer? I have a very small item I want printed. Would pay for the privilege.

Still occasionally writing about my experiences using AI in my day to day. This one was a success! What are you doing with AI these days? Adventures in AI: Vibe coding edition matt-thackston.beehiiv.com/p/adventures...

It's almost as if discussing complex and nuanced topics on micro-blogging sites with limited character counts was a bad idea from the jump.

This is what the federal government is calling in the military to deal with.

Will the day ever come when Democrats give up on a reconciliation strategy with these cretins? They don’t compromise, any attempts to compromise from Dems are seen as weakness, etc. Freddie never should have attempted to mend these fences.

Hey, so this is bad, right? Seems bad. If this stands, 2027 is going to be a WILD election.
