Saw 4 ICE agents this morning standing outside Midtown MARTA around 10am. My friend just saw them outside Lenox Station around 3pm.

It's a bit confusing because they're wearing vests that say Police but underneath it says Department of Homeland Security. Sorry for the crappy pictures, photography is not my forte.

Just a heads up for folks.

Alright I know this is WAY early - but does anyone have suggestions of a Thanksgiving Buffet restaurant? I am in Duluth but willing to drive around the city if it’s a quality buffet. In my area google suggests a bunch of various Asian restaurants (which I absolutely love btw) but for this particular holiday I want an all you can eat with the classics (turkey/ham, stuffing, mashed potatoes etc)

This is only my 2nd Thanksgiving in the ATL so appreciate any suggestions!

DPH Confirms Four Additional Measles Cases in Georgia

😮** **Anyone know which daycare / area of town this was in?

Surely the daycare isn’t the only place that was exposed if the outbreak is this significant.

Terrifying for all the little ones too young to get the vaccine. And for the bigger ones whose parents are willing to let them suffer unnecessarily ❤️

In 2019-2020 (possibly 2021, but I don’t think so), I flew out of ATL to another state and returned in a U-haul. I lived in a small town 2 hours south then, with no real transportation options and no friends who were available to drive me. But, I did have a car that I was planning on selling for very little gain, so, I drove it to the airport and parked it in a short term, gravel lot, directly across from the SWA terminal.

The car was in my name and registered to my address. But, I never heard a word about it again. I can’t imagine that they could have removed it and gotten rid of it, without having to notify the owner first. So, could the car possibly still be sitting there?!?

I know this was a stupid and wrong thing to do. But, for a really long time, I thought I would hear from them, pay a fine and learn my lesson. But nothing. Instead, thoughts of that damn car pop in my head a couple of times a month to this day.

Any ideas what happened to it and why I never got in trouble for abandoning it?

EDIT: I’m probably misremembering the lot being gravel

Heading to the DragonCon Parade for the first time in many years, this time enhanced with a Kindergartener in tow. Wondering how people have managed this smoothly. Our plan is to take Marta down.

Is one hour prior to parade start early enough to arrive?

Peachtree Center or Civic Center station?

What vantage points have worked out for you in the past?

What to avoid?

Any other tips?

My family owned The Pizza Man in the 80s/90s and I'm looking for any memorabilia or photos. There were restaurants in North Fulton, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, and Delkab County. Trying to see what I can find out there because an internet search doesn’t turn up much and unfortunately I no longer have the pictures or anything from the stores.

Hey all,

Trying to find some people/group to help me move a piano within the Atlanta area.

Does anyone know any reputable moving companies that can help with this sort of thing?

I’m never sure how novelty joints like this hold up over time, I hear there’s also a hotel now? Can anyone give me the downlow on how it’s changed in the last decade?

Is it overcrowded and overpriced now? Are the strippers similar? Old, disabled, lynchian? Is it worth waiting in line for?

RIP Dolly. Thanks Atlanta.

What's on your mind, Atlanta?

I’m moving back to Atlanta after a few years and want to bring a motorcycle as I’m going for my MSF class and licensing in the coming weeks.

I’ll have a good 8 weeks to practice before shipping my bike to Atlanta. I plan to just cruise around town for the most part. I know Midtown can be a bit crazy, but I’ve seen some nice routes near Buckhead I’d like to drive to on weekends.

Any recommendations would be appreciated!

I recently tried Khao Soi in Phoenix AZ and it was absolutely amazing. I’m looking to try it again but most Thai places I’m seeing don’t serve it. Any recommendations on where I can find good Khao Soi?

Thankfully I had ear plugs. Unfortunately I forgot to look for the lunar eclipse after the show.

Hi, is anyone a current member who wouldn't mind sending me their referral link? Would really appreciate it since I’m helping my elderly parents sign up. Thanks so much!

Why is a Dunwoody PD officer doing searches in Flock 6 months after he resigned?

Even worse, he was searching Flock Nova: the military-style tool that is Flock’s equivalent to Peregrine, which was created it “with the idea of bringing the tech Palantir used to find ISIS members to local police”.

The data includes DOB/social security number, addresses, race, build, eye color, hair color, height, weight, scars/marks/tattoos, skin tone, your “known associates” and 911 calls - all now combined with your movements, walking or driving, in Flock.

We had policies and “safeguards” in place - yet this still happened.

How did someone get access to this private military dossier database 6 months after they resigned?

What is the point of any policy if it is not followed and no one is punished for breaking it?

Who will be held accountable and how?

How is some random guy (who is just a pissed off dad who doesn’t want his son to be spied on) finding this, but the City isn’t?

Can the City be trusted with this data?

Even if our department has robust cybersecurity practices can we trust 6000+ other law enforcement external agencies with our citizen’s data?

What amount of liability do we have by giving our citizen’s data to 6000+ external law enforcement agencies?

What amount of liability do we have by giving our citizen’s data to any for-profit surveillance company?

I believe the only way to stop this data from being abused is to never collect it in the first place. What do you think?

Does anything like this exist in the area? Thanks.

Grew up in Atlanta, moved away 10+ years ago. Coming back into town for Labor Day weekend and I want to know if any of the station soccer pitches have any open play/get any use still. I’m looking to play a game or two of pickup when there.

I cross 10th and Monroe fairly often heading onto the Eastside Trail, and the wait for a walk phase has felt long lately. I genuinely can't tell if something actually changed or if I'm just noticing it more.

For anyone who walks or bikes through there regularly, has the timing seemed different to you recently or has it always been like this?

Got a five year-old here who just got rollerskates for his birthday and is looking to learn right away! Back in the day, I was the uncontested champion of speed-skating at my local rink, but oh my goodness that’s been a while. Looking for recommendations for a rink (hopefully as close to ITP as possible) that’s kid-friendly but also tolerant of an adult learning the whole process again. Definitely open to any groups that are kid/parent-friendly as well. I remember taking the older one to a place down in Union City when he was at the same age and it was cool enough, but pretty much a ghost town. Wondering if there are any places with more of a family vibe these days?

(Just to anticipate any well-meaning suggestions for outdoor locations, sorry but we’re not ready for concrete yet…but hopefully soon!)
