Just noticed that we've finally doubled our character limit on #SocialCoop from 500 up to a much roomier 1k characters. Thanks to the tech working group for making this happen! To celebrate, I will now post the lyrics to "I love you, Octopus" by Dalmatian Rex and the Eigentones which would not have previously fit here!

I think it's great that you've got eight wobbly arms
I can never see you with your crazy camouflage
I think you're bostin, you are surreal
Better than the fish, the sharks and even the Conger Eel

Because...
I love you, Octopus

I wish I was as rich as the English king and queen
I'd spend my money on a brand-new submarine
I'd swim with the dolphins like Jacques Cousteau
In the end of the evening, we'll have a real big fish disco

Because...
I love you, Octopus

I love you... Octopus I love you!

In 2018, the people of Nashville voted to create a civilian-led Community Oversight Board to oversee the actions of the Metro PD. It passed overwhelmingly.

But of course the Republican Supermajority in the TN Legislature don't want the people to have that power. So now a bill to abolish ALL police Community Oversight Boards -- and Tennessee has them in Nashville, Memphis and Chattanooga -- is before the House.

Because of course it is. #DrunkWithPower
