People ask me if I like living in Nashville, and honestly? I kind of shrug. We live outside of Nashville intentionally, and I struggle to answer because I don't really know what Nashville's identity is anymore. I don't think it does either. That's a growing trend in rapidly expanding Sunbelt cities — Denver, Austin, and Houston. They've become homogenous caricatures of themselves, where everything from the architecture to the businesses has what one author called "unbearable sameness." Main Street USA is effectively gone. So who's to blame?

Tonight CBS will air the last episode of Stephen Colbert's Late Night Show. People on both sides of the aisle are quick to blame politics and gloat, but honestly, it all just makes me sad. And if Colbert had been smarter, he wouldn't have fallen prey to the same schtick he once mocked.

Alex Cooper just announced that she is expecting her first baby with her husband Matt Kaplan, and it set the internet ablaze for a myriad of reasons. People on the right are obviously very angry and they're calling her out for being a hypocrite and intentionally leading women astray. But I don't know if it's that simple, and I'm kind of burned out by the outrage.
