I love the city. It was a balmy 50° on the walk into the office from the bus stop. Downtown was bustling with older men in suits and young professionals and the service workers who are the backbone of our Nashville’s tourist industry.

There was a multimodal conversation at 9th Ave too.

I’d assume that’s from the players not registered to vote in the 24 states they analyzed.

Most of the normies. All the brands. Definitely more lib coded than bsky.

Way worse for niche communities, marginally better for pop culture and breaking news.

Bagel shop franchises are the FroYo of the 2020s. I'm rocking with Crieve Hall and Mr. Aaron's for now though. www.franchisetimes.com/franchise_ne...

Nashville cannot be the welcoming, diverse, friendly city it claims to be until we have policies that create more for-sale, family-sized housing to offer families more attainable options. That means our neighborhoods need more townhomes, more cottage courts, and - yes - more fourplexes.

Nashville has had an apartment-building boom that has yielded flat-to-declining rents for 1-br and 2-br for-rent apartments, especially in the city's downtown and core neighborhoods. This is good, but is not sufficient to guarantee the city's long-term viability.

Nashville residents who care about homes for more Nashvillians can contact councilmembers (shoutout @emilyfor7.bsky.social and @quinevanssegall.bsky.social) to ask council to adopt a zoning map that can produce over 100K new homes in the next decade leveraging new housing districts & study findings.

Just got a quick trip with the 4-year-old down some neighborhood hills and the sleeting started on our walk home.
