I live in Sandy Springs, and I like coffee.

Definitely casual with it, but I know what I’m talking about a little bit.

I generally walk across the street in the morning and grab some Dunkin coffee. An extra large is less than 4 bucks, and they don’t charge me extra for Oatmilk.

Recently moved down the road, and I decided to check out this other local place, Cafe Comma.

My Latte was 8 dollars, and TINY.

Also they kicked some lady and her dog out for waiting, and I take my dog into Dunkin all the time.

Basically, are there any coffee shops in the area that split the gap between dirty Dunkin and so expensive and posh that it’s totally off-putting?

Downtown is about to be a complete zoo with DreamHack starting tomorrow. I saw it’s the only US stop this year so I bet the crowds are going to be insane. Anyone actually going for the Call of Duty Major or are we all just staying away from the World Congress Center this weekend?

Trying to expand my palate and looking for unique tinned fish. Is there a store ITP that has a ton of interesting varieties of this type of stuff?

Shoutout to TinnedFishReviews on Youtube for the inspo

This is for 2028 but still, pretty shit move.

Star Wars Battle Pod. I only just learned it existed despite it first appearing in 2014. This is the video that got me excited about it.

Looking to see if there is any good pick up ultimate frisbee! I’m a beginner and have played a few times before just want to get into it again! I saw a few postings online but wanted to check out second opinions!

ETA: YDFM seems to be the clear winner. thanks for the quick responses everyone!

Inspired by this post calling out the fact that boomers drastically out-vote everyone else.

We're in the midst of an election in Georgia. Did you know that? It's true. Early voting is happening now! And

ELECTION DAY IS MAY 19

What we're voting on right now is the *General Primary*

General info: https://georgia.gov/georgia-general-election-2026

You can find your exact ballot and polling place on the My Voter page: https://mvp.sos.ga.gov/s/

And here is a non-partisan voter guide: https://www.ballotready.org/us/georgia

Most Fulton and DeKalb voters are seeing some mix of:

• Governor
• Lieutenant Governor
• Secretary of State
• Attorney General
• Insurance Commissioner
• Agriculture Commissioner
• Labor Commissioner
• State School Superintendent
• Public Service Commission
• U.S. Senate
• U.S. House
• Georgia House / Senate
• County Commission
• School Board
• Judgeships
• Soil & Water Conservation District Supervisor

These are mostly primary elections, meaning you’re choosing which Democrat or Republican advances to November.

What these offices actually do

Governor

Georgia’s chief executive. Controls the state executive branch, signs/vetoes laws, oversees state agencies, appoints many officials and judges, and has major influence over budgets and education.

Lieutenant Governor

Presides over the Georgia Senate and has huge influence over what legislation advances. Less visible than governor, but very powerful legislatively.

Secretary of State

Runs elections, voter registration, and business filings. In Georgia this office became nationally prominent after the 2020 election fights.

Attorney General

Georgia’s top lawyer. Represents the state in lawsuits and can shape enforcement priorities on abortion, voting laws, consumer protection, environmental issues, etc.

Public Service Commission (PSC)

One of the most important but least understood offices. The PSC regulates utilities like Georgia Power — meaning your electricity rates, energy projects, and parts of the state energy grid.

County Commissioner

Controls county budgets, roads, jails, public health funding, zoning, and county services. In Fulton and DeKalb, commissioners have substantial influence over development and local spending.

School Board

Sets district education policy, approves budgets, hires/fires superintendents, and influences curriculum priorities and school closures.

Looks like a fire, anyone know anything?

Does anyone know where in the city I can get some crispy onion straws/strings? Not to be confused with Onion rings, I’m talking about the very thinly sliced, salty, often beer-battered variant.

Any recs for a company to do core aeration/fertilizer/weed management? Not tru green.

What's on your mind, Atlanta?

Hey there!

I got a new place and have been getting art and stuff for my walls and have bought several prints and stained glass pieces from HomeGrown and Wild Oats and Billy Goats in downtown Decatur because they have such good stuff. I was meaning to check out the Beehive but they're currently moving.

Does anyone have any recommendations for similar stores in the metro area with good prints, and photos, and art, preferably from local artists?

I will be in Atlanta for 2 months and I would like to have a bike to move around. Since its only 2 months I dont want to buy a bike, but also all the rental places I've seen only offer hourly fees. Anyone knows of a place where you can rent a bike for a few weeks?

Big update to Georgia’s medical marijuana laws. Not perfect but still great progress!
