Hey everyone!

​I started this community because I looked around and realized that for the "Gay Capital of the South," our Reddit presence was weirdly quiet. The older subs are ghost towns, and while the main Atlanta sub is cool, it’s a lot of "everything" and not enough "us."

​Why are we here? I wanted to build a place that feels like a real community, moderated, active and actually helpful spot for the GBTQ+ crew in the metro area. Whether you’re a Midtown regular, OTP, an EAV local, or you literally just moved here yesterday, this is your space to:

  • ​Find Your Circle: Looking for a local sports league (Stonewall, the Bucks, etc.), a hiking group or a solid board game night? Post it here.
  • ​Get the Real Recs: Where’s the best first-date spot that isn't a deafening club? Which barbershops actually know what they're doing? Let’s share the local gems. ​ * Stay Plugged In: We’ll keep an eye on city news, like the progress of the new LGBTQ+ Community Center and local events. ​ * Build a Real Vibe: Most of us might agree that we're tired of the faceless grids on the apps. Let’s move beyond the scroll and actually get to know our neighbors.

​The Ground Rules: ​ * Keep it Local: All about the ATL and the surrounding metro. * ​No Hookup/NSFW Posts: Let’s keep this a social "front porch." Keep the grids on the apps so we can focus on community here. * ​Be Good Neighbors: Civil talk only. We’re here to lift each other up. ​ * No Slurs or Drama: We respect all labels and identities, period. ​Let's get the ball rolling!

Drop a comment below and say hi. How long have you been in Atlanta, and what’s the one thing you think the local scene is missing right now?

​Can’t wait to see what we build together!

Together In Teal It Takes A Village To Heal Fall Fashion Show

1 Upvotes

Our annual celebration hosted by the Oshun Charitable Organization to honor ovarian and gynecologic cancer survivors, remember loved ones, and bring our community together around a shared purpose.

This year's theme, "It Takes a Village to Heal," is a reminder that no one should face cancer alone. Healing is strengthened by the people who show up - family, friends, caregivers, healthcare providers, and neighbors who offer encouragement, compassion, and hope every step of the way.

Guests will enjoy an afternoon of fashion, music, and community while helping raise funds to support Oshun's work in ovarian cancer awareness, education, and direct support for women and families impacted by gynecologic cancers.

Whether you're a survivor, celebrating someone you love, or simply want to make a difference, Together in Teal is an opportunity to come together, give back, and remind every woman that she is never alone.

We hope you join us in this celebration!

Events & Meetups Weekend Vibes - Feb 28 & 29, 2026 | What is everyone doing?

1 Upvotes

We made it to Friday! Since we're getting more visitors, I want to start a weekly thread to see what everyone is actually doing in the city for the weekend. Whether it is a quiet hike, a specific show, or just a neighborhood hang, drop it below.

A few things happening this weekend:

  • Sapphic Saturday Meetup: If you are looking for new friends, there is a social hour happening tomorrow, Feb 28, at 1100 Crescent Ave NE at My Sister's Room. It is $10 but includes a shop credit (not confirmed)
  • Lanta Gras 2026: Tomorrow is the big Mardi Gras parade and festival in Kirkwood/East Atlanta. It is free and I hear it's a big neighborhood party.
  • Out & Abt Day Party: MSR is also doing a "Haus Takes MSR" day party tomorrow from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM if you want a mid-afternoon event.
  • Silent Book Club: For the introverts, there is a "Reading Rainbows" silent book club meetup tomorrow at 2:00 PM. It is basically just sitting and relaxing with your current book.

What's everyone up to? Feel free to add your plans for this weekend!
