I write code for a living, to allow me to pursue my true passion of yelling about the lack of bike lanes in #Atlanta.

UPDATE: Bari Weiss hilariously tells CBS News(Max) staff she yanked the story (without even discussing it with the team) to “win back the trust” of Americans.

(P.S. She means of Trump)

I'm watching The Graduate, and in 2025 the opening feels like the story of an autistic boy being bullied by his parents and their creepy friends. #film

I was toying with the idea of getting a nothing phone or other minimalist phone, but it's hard to pass up a free $800 flagship phone from the carriers.

What if, hear me out, Atlanta officials focus on building sidewalks, repairing sewers, expanding voter-mandated transit projects, dismantling surveillance cameras, preventing school closures, and avoiding costly taxpayer-funded settlements towards victims of police violence right now?

and...while Mayor Dickens won with an overwhelming 85% of the vote, weaker east side support.

Despite the loss, Rohit and political allies (WFP, for example) had a strong GOTV. Next time, they may find a lot more than the 2k votes they were under in '25.

Atlanta's political divide grows sharper.

The densely populated central-east precincts in D1,D2,D5, and D6's support of Rohit contrasts against the western & northern precincts.

Almost everybody in ATL is a Dem, but not everyone is a progressive.

Morning! Great morning for statewide Dems, GA PSC candidates & ATL D2, but not so great for City Council Pres & Marietta mayor race. I'll be writing a longer post-mortem article, but here are some initial insights on the Atlanta muni races:

Atlanta, we did it! 🎉

Last night, our grassroots campaign won in a landslide, with 64% of the vote in a crowded field. I’m so proud to become the first Democratic Socialist elected to Atlanta City Council, and to win with the backing of such a broad progressive coalition of (1/6)

Vote Johnson and Hubbard!

Only one chance left to do it!
When global gas prices rise, Georgia pays. The PSC keeps importing fuel instead of building affordable, local energy.

Vote Nov. 4 for energy that works for us, not the utilities.

I'm at the King&Queen buildings in #Atlanta and they have a private bike share with these cruisers to get around the complex because it's so spread out. Ironically there are no sidewalks or bike lanes, and the roads mostly dump into massive 6 lane highways, but it's a cool idea for a business park.
