🇵🇸 | Nashville | usually yapping about homelessness, poverty & policing | my brain has a million tabs open at all times | opinions are mine + are never ending
Listen I'm never satisfied with a journalist 💀 but credit where credit is due, this man not only saved a tray of burritos during his second fall, he also jumped in to help us try to push a car stuck on ice (which we ended up having to haul out of its spot). This Steve is currently on my good side 😂
Same. A very bizarre mix of deadly serious circumstances and silly ones (I have slipped and fallen twice and our whole neighborhood is an open container zone). Very motivated by how good so many people are being to each other.

It's brutal out there y'all. If you see anyone outside, please help them get inside. Yesterday we gave a friend this blanket & these protein shakes. He wasn't ready to go in to shelter. When I went to check on him today, he was gone & everything he had was frozen. I hope he made it inside 🥺🙏🏼

Really wish I was making this shit up. They literally put the wrong address for THEIR OWN SHELTER and we had to flag it to them. The levels of incompetency are utterly unbelievable. They gave these to service providers and every single PIT count team to hand out Thursday night.

We'll be out as much we can be this weekend! Heading out now to give folks rides to shelter, deliver supplies and check on our neighbors. We need everyone doing what they can to get us all through this brutal snow, ice & bitter cold. We take care of each other ❤️

The reason Nashville is one of the only cities in the entire country that doesn't have license plate readers is because of community members fighting like hell over the past 5ish years to protect our neighbors. No matter how exhausted we are, we will never, ever give up this fight.

Oh I didn’t realize the official government social media accounts were doing propaganda now. Thought that was reserved for politicians’ accounts. Cool cool cool.
Let's keep downtown Nashville safe for everyone. Grant funded security improvements help us deliver safety without burdening Nashville taxpayers.

Lol mayor's office thinks we're dumb enough to believe none of this is coming from our tax dollars.

If you are a "progressive" elected official pushing FUSUS or working with LexisNexis or Flock (or Oracle). You should also go on trial after the regime falls for helping build the fascist surveillance state.

We're in a long cold stretch of weather. Please send us supplies if you can - esp. blankets & sleeping bags. We go through so many supplies when we're out winter canvassing each night & we'll be out 7+ nights in a row! Help us take care of our neighbors outside ❤️

This is horrendous, even for Trump. This needs to be a bigger story.

Housing ends homelessness. Solidarity ends authoritarianism. We need both.
ICE abducted 4 homeless Indigenous people in Minneapolis and put them in a detention camp.

Trump's obsession with throwing people in detention camps is a threat to all of us. What starts with homeless people, migrants, & Native Americans won't stop there. buff.ly/7avRWMc

for the late afternoon crowd - I built iwantyoutostay.com as a way to lament how the people in charge wanted us to stay and give Nashville a chance. Now after 2 years it feels like the city, which had a lot of hope when we elected such people; has actively regressed.

This is my snarky way to cope

Hey look there’s a place that has even dumber and/or more sellout politicians than Nashville! Our largest public stadium subsidy record is about to be broken. My condolences to all affected taxpayers - Nashvillians & Tennesseans feel your pain 😭😭😭 (as do all the other taxpayers robbed for stadiums).
The Kansas City Chiefs are relocating from Missouri to Kansas and getting a new $3 billion stadium.

60 percent of it will be publicly funded — despite the owners boasting a nearly $25 billion net worth.

This isn't the first stadium scam we've seen recently...

All I want for Christmas is for the library to reopen.
December 21, 2025 at 11:05 PM
Most important bench yet made it’s debut at this morning’s Annual Homeless Memorial. As of the other day, 169 individuals in Nashville have died after a prolonged period of homelessness or while experiencing homelessness this year. More names will likely be added before the year ends 💔

I laugh every time I recall the quote that the benches would be better used somewhere else. Our imagination can’t even contain bench abundance. There’s just 10 benches. Can’t get more.

I love how in one hour people on here have spent time coming up with ideas to try to make folks’ lives easier and more enjoyable, even with disagreement, while the mayor makes up scenarios where we blow up a water park
Charlie but wait, serious question, what if zoom-zoom hours were implemented on the airpark in the meantime? Like adult skate but for bikes

Stop wasting our fucking time. Stop scheduling unrealistic time slots for committee meetings. Stop the CM, council attorney & lobbyist mingling & start the damn meeting. Some of us don’t get paid to be here. Rushed for a 5pm B&F start & just had to leave for winter canvassing without B&F starting.
This is as new one. The planning and zoning committee meeting ended almost 15 minutes ago and budget and finance that was scheduled to start at 5 PM has still not started. A lot of mingling going on.

Right? We don’t need the bandwidth of fiber to tell us when a light is green or red. Video surveillance needs bandwidth though.

I’m increasingly convinced @freddieoconnell.bsky.social will do anything to have a real-time surveillance command center. My dude, just watch NCIS. We don’t want this 💩.
