I watched a YouTube video on Saul Leiter who used to take photos through foggy/wet windows or using reflections. My first thought was the dirty windows on the MARTA train and I tried to apply that style to my commute today.
These 3 are my favorite photos of the day, especially the first one. I tried to capture something uniquely Atlanta.

@carnage4life Honestly mimics the feeling I've been getting at my work. Well that's partly because they sent out an email saying everyone was required to use AI and if you don't want to then you should find a job doing something else.

This is an amazing performance from Edith Pageaud playing pieces by Rachmaninoff, Piazzola, Biber, Presti, and Tansman. I've listened to it multiple times over and I need to listen to it again

@jhill @ATLeagle Every ticket should come with a free beer until the team gets better

#atlutd typical Atlanta United go to half time without any goals and then concede early in the second half and spend the rest of the game chasing...

@raiderrobert When you're having ChatGPT write your code just remember that ChatGPT won't be the person getting woken up at 2AM when something breaks

I leave the room for a few minutes and when I come back it's a VAR check for an Orlando penalty.
Come on guys...

The TV broadcast shows both of the penalty taker's last penalties are shot to the bottom right corner. He takes the penalty and shoots it to the bottom right corner
Guzan dives left.

@ATLeagle True! That's not even enough for a single interchange.

Trails. Build the trails.

It's been pointed out that the estimated cost to build is extremely high. $250 million just for the first 35 miles of trails without including potential easements

The GA State MARTA station was packed when we left the rally at the capitol. A lot of people riding who were obviously not used to it.
A guy played the ukulele and got the whole train to sing "This Land is My Land".
Public transit is freedom

Supposed to allow direct credit/debit card and mobile wallet payments, improved ticket vending machines, better fare gates at train stations, and better bus fare readers (among other things)

@GossiTheDog I feel like everyone's just forgotten about the Metaverse thing and he doesn't get nearly enough shit for how stupid it was.If the AI hype machine didn't swoop in and steal the show I think people would still be dumping on Meta

Finally finished reading The Wheel of Time series. I started reading over a decade ago but couldn't stick through. I started a re-read from the beginning after the second season of the show came out.
I finished yesterday but I still feel like I'm decompressing from the last battle. The end was long, but at the same time too short.
I feel relieved to be through it, accomplished, but also sad that there won't be any more Wheel of Time. Maybe the show can help fill that void...either that or I start another re-read 🤓

We're looking better in this second half but not being composed enough in front of goal. Need to keep these shots down

@TheBreadmonkey Can other people's cars really do this in seconds? It usually takes several minutes for the air to heat up enough to even start melting ice and it takes a while after that for it to be completely melted. If I waited for the defroster every time my windshield has ice I'd have to idle my engine for 5-10 minutes every time.
And it's not even that cold where I live (Atlanta)

A lot of the fears that rail will ruin the beltline are completely unfounded.
> Charlotte proves to me that light rail and trails can and should go together. It works. It’s safe. It’s driving economic development while including enough options to make the corridor accessible to everyone. The Atlanta Beltline can do this and even more.
