“Too often, this debate is framed as a choice between rail and no rail. That is a false choice. In this essay I will argue for no rail.”
Now imagine a city where local electeds are making the exact *opposite* argument: that longstanding, marginalized communities WANT data centers (??) and only wealthy gentrifiers oppose them That’s Atlanta, bizarro world
It should be a bigger story that somebody our taxes paid to lead a fascist invasion of an American city mere months ago has gone full mask-off Nazi
Also not sure how new this is but it’s extremely cool. Inside Sylvan Building. Actually aligns with real-time MARTA arrivals.
Downtown update two weeks before the World Cup starts. Not even hating because I truly appreciate everyone doing this work. It’s just objectively hilarious how last-minute it is. Active construction on almost literally every block.
The ATL Spoke autonomous shuttle exists in the wild, must credit Platlanta the official Bluesky account of terrible ideas
lol I heard about this ridiculous story. Banana shack vibes arresteddevelopment.fandom.com/wiki/The_Ban...
Happy birthday Blind Willie McTell, who lived in Old Fourth Ward and played for tips among the “lovers’ lane” cars parked behind drive-ins on Ponce, including the Blue Lantern where the Local is today Aerial image here is the Blue Lantern in 1949
Atlanta getting ready for the World Cup like a frat boy cramming for an exam lol
Quin Snyder drawing up plays on the clipboard with his team down 50 points. First overall pick from two years ago still on the bench. Beyond parody.
Americans will be like “Back the Blue” and then turn around and participate in a speeding ticket evasion conspiracy smh
