@maddow.bsky.social Do you ever get tired of being right? You called all of this election interference WAY BACK. Please do another podcast series about the little guys making a difference. I swear, ULTRA was how o got thru 2024 & 2025.
A different way to begin the year. How Do You Want to Live? An existential orientation—not a resolution. Join me January 11 at 6pm CT for a FREE live, reflective Zoom workshop focused on meaning, desire, and how you want to show up in your life this year. zoom.us/meeting/regi...
#TN07 things aren't going that well are they? Everything costs more, this thanksgiving won't have the same "bounty" of food you're used to, and you are faced with skyrocketing health care costs. Want to change all that? That starts by voting for @aftynbehn.bsky.social
Thanksgiving in America should not be fraught with this amount of insecurity. We deserve better, we can fight for it by voting and by our participation in our democracy. Big Election on December 2nd - Early voting open now in #TN07 #thanksgiving
Why are all of Pete Hegseth's military operations named after brands of dildos?
4 early voting days left, Davidson! Get out and vote for @aftynbehn.bsky.social! Make being a decent human normal again!
Please 🙏 vote! Too many people left it up to others last year and look what happened!
Remember Tennessee District 7 Vote! Vote! Vote! Vote for @aftynbehn.bsky.social next week.
You know what one of the highest compliments is being a therapist? When someone I haven’t spoken to in a decade reaches out (out of the blue) to ask if I can support someone they care about. Feeling so grateful to do this work. ❤️
Remind me who we are supposed to be terrified is peeing next to me in a bathroom or reading to kids at a library? Because these emails are telling me it’s not the drag queens and trans people. It’s like they were lying the whole time.
Republicans/MAGA: sex and gender exist only on a STRICT binary. Also Republicans/MAGA: sexual abuse of a minor is actually a spectrum.
How is it that the same people who say trans kids are “too young to know themselves” suddenly want to argue that a 15-year-old can consent to sex? Make it make sense.
We’re about to watch the party of “protect the children” downplay & dismiss CSA and pedos. I need something stronger than coffee this morning.
People who are shocked or horrified that MAGA acolytes are continuing to defend their dear leader CLEARLY didn’t grow up with adults making excuses for rape-y youth pastors. It’s disappointing, but not the least bit surprising.
“Well what if [Democrat/Progressive Name] is in the Epstein files?” I’m sorry, is that meant to be a real question? Because it’s asked like there’s more than one answer. You prosecute the ever-loving shit out of that person immediately, and publicly condemn them. It really is that simple.
Being a sex therapist in a conservative family doesn’t make parent phone calls less painful, but it sure does make them more entertaining. 🤣
I will read the MLK Jr. files that got released yesterday just as soon as I finish reading the Epstein files. Release them. #epstein #coverup #releasethefiles
Let’s get one thing real clear: there is NO 👏SUCH 👏THING 👏as “sex with trafficked children.” There is only rape and sexual abuse. No consent = abuse. #sexualassualt #childexploitation
(202) 224-3121 - US House Capitol Switchboard. If you are reading this, you need to call and tell them to vote NO on HR 1!
Just got off the phone with the office of Congressional Rep. Mark Green (R-TN). He barely let me squeeze in my request that he vote “No” on the Budget Bill. Hopefully this means they are being FLOODED with calls. #voteno #callyourrepresentative #Tennessee #5CallsApp
@linzpatrickwright.bsky.social Just heard your episode on @citycastnash.bsky.social this morning & I am so grateful for you standing up for your kiddo in Wilson County. Please know you have 1 more supporter in Nashville. 🩷
No! The last time we tried “regime change” we ended up in a 20+ year un-winnable war, & broke a generation of veterans who are now unable to receive adequate healthcare due to cuts made to the VA. Stop trying to force regime changes overseas. Our service members and their families pay the price.
Ted Cruz on Iran: "I think it is very much in the interests of America to see regime change."
Waking up today in #Nashville feeling closer to thousands of my neighbors. Thank you for coming out yesterday. If nothing else, seeing thousands of folks come out to protest #NoKings makes me feel not so different from y’all.
@maddow.msnbc.com The Nashville #NoKings protest was truly incredible! It was well organized, peaceful and had the best energy of neighbors turning out to support their neighbors. @50501nashtn.bsky.social
