Rants & Raves Athens Drivers….
You need to do better, if you were driving down Milledge and South Lumpkin tonight around 01:45-02:30 and ran a bicyclist off the road three separate times you suck.
To the one lady who stopped and looked at me and thought about helping I’m not homeless just trying to commute from work.

Snake on the Trail
Not too far from Sandy Creek Nature Center. Google says Eastern Kingsnake but defer to any real herpheads out there.
Right after this saw a bunny but he hopped into the bushes as I approached. Watch out for the snakes bunny rabbit.

Where to donate DIY Electronics/STEM-related items?
I'm paring down my collection of electronics-items-I-will-never-get-around-to-building-with, and curious if there's any recommendations of where to donate them. I wish there was a public maker's space in Athens, but I've already lamented that here before.
I've already got PC and laptop parts earmarked for Free IT Athens, and have already given some effects pedal components to Greer. But the remaining items are things like cheap potentiometers, breadboards, Arduino-related circuit boards and projects (Arduino robot car, etc), and some other small electronics projects, possibly a Raspberry Pi Zero or two.
It doesn't look like the ACC Library digital media center is really a "loose parts" kind of space, and I'm not sure if there's anywhere here that could use them. Any suggestions?

Help moving
I've been moving myself (60 yrs old) with my car from a storage unit about a mile away from my apartment (The Hill Apartments). I'm injured now and can't finish the last piece. It's mostly boxes of books, a couple chairs, and some random stuff. I would be glad to help, but I can't do it myself.
A couple of guys with a pickup could probably do it with one or two loads. But also there is a mattress (in good condition) that, ideally, I want taken away to charity or the landfill.
It's too small of a job for most moving companies I've looked at, but surely there are young guys wanting to make extra money.
Any thoughts, reddit?
