Fuck it. Here's my 2028 senate platform.

I've had some whiskey, and I'll be 30 so fuck it. This is what I, a random uber driver who probably took your ass to a preds game before, would do if I was a senator.

1 I will call Andy Ogles a bitch ass to his face.

2 I will write a law that will require AI data centers to use their own energy. And they can only use nuclear or renewables.

3 Speaking of nuclear I'll write a law that would fund the largest expansion of nuclear in our country's history.

4 I will write a law that will require every vehicle to have a human behind the wheel who is qualified and sober.

5 I will make aipac register under FARA.

6 I will write a law to make the minimum wage $20 an hour.

7 I will write a law to make all income below $70,000 tax free.

8 I will include funding in some bill that has literally more pages than the entire works of Dostoevsky for a train from Nashville to Atlanta.

9 I will write a law making Dolly Parton's birthday a national holiday.

10 I will write a law that would require education funding to go to public schools. No more vouchers for rich kids to go to the private school their lawyer dad was already paying for.

11 I will write a law to invest billions into infrastructure. Roads, railways, power lines.

12 I will write a law to ban single ply toilet paper.

13 I will write a law that will require a car battery be either right the fuck under the hood or in the trunk. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to replace that bitch in 5 minutes at AutoZone.

14 I will bring a constitutional amendment that would require a referendum to attack another country. Even if they attacked us first.

15 I will also bring one to require politicians to retire at 65.

16 I will also bring one that will prevent people who forced their mistress to get an abortion to cover up their affair then pulling a gun on their wife when she confronts him on his infidelity from ever running for any office.

17 I will write a law requiring the FAA to double their headcount of air traffic controllers.

18 I will write a law requiring any job that is safety critical or compliance critical to be performed entirely by human beings. Lawyers, accountants, pilots, engineers, computer programmers. Their work is too important to be performed by clankers.

19 I will require you to be able to talk to a member of your own species when you call a number and ask for a person.

20 I will call Andy Ogles a bitch ass to his face again.

HELP NEEDED Looking for information about neo-Confederate or related groups holding events this Memorial day weekend.

I recently found out my brother is already part of a neo-Confederate group and he just told our mother that we can’t come visit him this weekend because he’s “going to an event in Nashville for an activist group” he’s a part of. This genius has a spouse and an infant child and he’s decided NOW is the perfect time to start getting involved with this cesspool. I know these groups tend to keep their events under wraps until the day of but if anybody has heard ANYTHING about a group like this, please be careful and please let me know. Nashville I’m so sorry y’all have to deal with this BS.

Am I missing something?

Why are we celebrating this place? I’m a 20 yr resident, maybe I’m not getting it? This business closes willingly, profits $10M+, tells employees they won’t lose their jobs (moving to other location), but they still open a go fund me for the employees to rake in donations, and then make merch commemorating themselves and fellow neighborhood sell outs, and the merch all sells?! The greed knows no bounds.

Free concert on Broadway tonight, Sixwire

For anyone downtown tonight or looking for something free to do, there’s a Super Bowl community celebration happening on Lower Broadway.

Streets open at 6:30 PM, Sixwire plays at 7:30 PM, and the main show starts at 8:00 PM with Marty Smith from ESPN hosting. There are supposed to be special appearances, and a drone show afterwards

It’s free, so naturally Lower Broadway will probably be a mess. But honestly, a free downtown drone show sounds pretty cool if you’re already in the area or don’t mind dealing with the chaos.

Eli Lilly accuses church bishops, businessmen of fraud in Trulicity drug rebate scheme, including former Metro Nashville Council Member Dr. Jerry Maynard II

Eli Lilly accuses church bishops, businessmen of fraud in $200 million Trulicity drug rebate scheme.

Eli Lilly has disclosed in a civil lawsuit filed in federal court on Tuesday that a rebate fraud scheme cost it more than $200 million. The scheme has been going on at least six years, Lilly said in the filing. It learned of the alleged fraud in 2025, it said, through a data analysis of rebate claims.

The company alleges several bishops and a leader of the Church of God in Christ, a major Pentecostal church, were part of the plot. The church is not named as a defendant in the suit. Lilly alleges that organizations used members of the church to support false rebate claims.

“The company also sued church leaders who allegedly assisted in and profited from the rebate scheme: Readus C. Smith III, of Jacksonville, Florida, who is secretary-general of health and business for the church; Jerry Maynard Sr., of Ashland City, Tennessee, a church bishop and businessman; his son Jerry Maynard II, of Nashville, Tennessee, a church pastor, business consultant and former member of the Metro Nashville Davidson Council; and Maynard Sr.’s daughter Misha Maynard, of Watertown, Tennessee, a church pastor.”

“Maynard Sr. promoted Community Health to church members, the suit said, and his son is its board chairman and did legal work for DrugPlace. Misha Maynard is Community Health’s vice president of operations, according to the filing.”

In a statement to CNBC, a Lilly spokesperson said the company “brought this case to stop fraud and protect patients’ access to its medicines.”
“When the defendants learned that they had been discovered, DrugPlace shuttered its Nashville pharmacy and began liquidating assets—conduct consistent with covering its tracks,” the statement said.

Trivia/Board Games

My wife and I, 40M and 41F, just recently moved here. We enjoy playing trivia, board games, or going to any kind of gaming venue like top golf or popstroke. We’d like to do Great Big Game Show sometime but that requires a lot of people.

Anyone go out and play trivia and need 2 people to fill your table or want to go to bars/restaurants and form teams? Closest bar to where we live that we have found that does trivia is The Lucky Nut. If it’s fun and we all have a good time then maybe set up some board game nights and switch off on hosting.

Jason Mraz Tix, pair, free. CHATANOOGA, 5/20, 1930 doors.(My home city gets dibs).

**These are gone! Congrats, and enjoy!**

Unfortunately, Elon's sperm-tunnel doesn't transport us to Chattanooga for free. Bought these early in early February, when gas at BJ's was $2.27⁹. Iran war, gas prices, blah blah blah.

Free to good home. Will include Japanese restaurant within walking distance info that I had scoped out, upon request. Hah.

First public comment wins.

God bless every single one of y'all!

‼️‼️‼️NEED FOSTERING ASSISTANCE ‼️‼️‼️‼️

hello!! me and my sister are in need of help desperately right now.

we found a female pitbull wandering wedgewood huston last night and she is the sweetest thing!!! she appears to be in heat and obviously not fixed. Today we took her to the humane society and she has no microchip so we suspect that a homeless person was keeping her.

Me and my sister are unable to foster her due to our small apartment and 2 other pets. I’m coming on this thread to see if anyone can help. Metro said they are full and wouldn’t take her in.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW ABOUT ANY RESOURCE.

THANK YOU‼️‼️‼️
