IMO Water under the bridge today Oct 7 2025. Appropriate party apologized. Parties involved made their peace. Looked at it from her side and his for more insight into where the tension happened.

Tempers will flair in life. Has done me well to step back and understand why it happens.

You may have heard Marsha Blackburn is running for Governor in Tennessee 🙃. Whose running on the D ticket? One candidate I’ve been really digging is @jerrigreen4tn.bsky.social ! Will need all the support possible to flip Tennessee.

HOW IT STARTED VS. HOW IT'S GOING

In 2019, I was cited for protesting our former Speaker of the House, now serving time for corruption. In 2025, I'm the only woman running in this seat. Women don't wait for permission to lead — we fight, we build, and we change the game.

THIS moment of clarity is what I hope we can arrive at. We’re stronger than we think. A quote:

“In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.”

Good point. And something I’m seeing this first hand. I’m sure you have too. And this is the Crux of it….Aligning with strength and clarity to move forward to get to a better place for humanity. I don’t have all the answers, but people out there are standing up. I will do the same.

The saddest thought in my mind when I look at it all. People, in solidarity, have more power than they think. Head up. Organizing locally. The design to keep people aloof won’t work if some voices stand up.

Saw this on Reddit. Absolutely crazy.

Andrew Okeke @andrewokeke.bsky.social · 16d

Felt this to my core.

Andrew Okeke @andrewokeke.bsky.social · 16d

Disgusting action by admin. Does anyone have a link to source on this? Would like to get to other people running in elections.

They're about to shut down the government to protect the Epstein Files from disclosure. Whatever is in the files must be so unhinged as to be beyond imagination.

That is a good deal, but cannot stand how Metropolis does their parking situations in parts of city. Particularly at the capital view Publix. Stopped going there for just quick items because of it.

Thank *

Think you for posting this!! Interesting cap from video - Nashville is #5 for worst traffic bottlenecks and congestion in the country. So wild. Knew if was bad, didn’t know how bad though compared to rest of country.
