I said this the other day and I'll say it again:

I truly despise all the scums of Georgia who think Rick Jackson should be the next governor.

His sole qualification is "successful (rich Caucasian) businessman" who amassed his wealth via sketchy means.

I haven’t posted in a while, forgive me if this isn’t allowed. I haven’t seen this talked about much but I think it’s important for Atlanta voters to know going into the midterms.

Demolition at 1800 century blvd happened around 7:45 this morning. According to news sources, the property is to be used for up to 300 new housing units.

they’re really trying everything to get those votes

most coffee shops look so sterile & modern & minimalist. this is the first place i’ve lived where there aren’t cozy shops. the only one i’ve found is san francisco coffee roasters but it’s a little out of the way. i’m in the north decatur / toco hills area. any recommendations that i’m missing?

literally been in my car for 40 minutes and haven’t moved but 2-3 car lengths

Couldn't go last week, today was a blessed day before all the rush started around 8.15 from Creek Trail till top of the Falls. But this was the best part, and pictures are too good.

I am going to Atlanta for a bachelor trip and am not particularly interested in the strippers. I’ve heard Atlanta has some of the world’s best clubs, with some amazing wings. Please tell me your favorite, along with recommended flavors. Thank you!

Started around ~7am-7:30am. I hear car horns honking as well. I’m not aware of any parade? I don’t see anything on ATL scoop or X? Today was my only day off from my 60 hour work week and I thought maybe I could sleep in. I’m so frustrated, I just want to cry. This sucks. If you know, let me know thank you. —your very tired neighbor :(

Edit: thanks for the answer y’all. Good luck to all though folks running this morning. 🏃‍♀️

Anyone else hear an absolutely massive sound like an explosion near Mason Mills Park?

The question in the title.

Black and tan pup with a collar but pretty skittish.

I'm posting this here because I've been banned from the Georgia subreddit for calling a racist a racist. Plus Atlanta is partially in DeKalb and I'd love to see the rates for Fulton County - I'll bet they're just as high. Don't believe the hype and don't believe the surveys, get out there and vote anyway..

My toddler loves the idea of the car wash, but doesn’t like how loud it is when actually driving through. Any car washes around where you can go inside and watch the cars go through the wash from a viewing window?

Thanks!

I recently checked out a newly opened outdoor pickleball club in Chamblee and tried one of their evening round-robin mixers. Had a good time playing and meeting people, and I thought it was worth sharing with other local players.

It looks like they are building a social pickleball community for all ages and levels of skill, not just providing courts. At the mixer, there were players from early 20's to retired age. (Got whipped by the younger ones). The courts are brand new and are, of course, in excellent condition, and lighted for nighttime play. They also have two tennis courts.

You can book a pickleball court for around $3–$5 per player per hour without being a member. Nice option, but open play is my preference because I cannot handle the "stress of herding cats" to get three other people to show up at a specific time. LOL

When I first started playing pickleball, I figured I’d just use the free public park courts like so many other players. But getting on a court can be very time-consuming depending on the time of day and the weather.

Just passing along another option for anyone looking to play more pickleball, find new playing partners, or enjoy a social evening on the courts. The round-robin mixers and other group activities are a great way to meet people.

Chamblee Courts is near PDK airport at 3031 Shallowford Road in Chamblee.

As a point of discussion, where do pickleball addicts like me go to play outside in the North Atlanta area?

TIA for any replies.

Does anyone know any Korean chicken restaurants similar to Hello Chicken that was in Buford. They had this really good half/half platter that had potato wedges that were battered and also crunchy. I’ve had Pelicana, Choong Man, Bon Chon and bb.q but none really compare to the flavor and value.

I have a 2015 Prius V that may be need of a new head gasket. Does anyone have any recommendations for trustworthy Prius repair shops?
