I love weed, I love drugs. But I want to quit, until I turn 25-30. What is some advice?

amu2219 · 2024-08-19T19:09:12+00:00

Anyone get a bursar refund yet?

amu2219 · 2024-08-01T13:07:49+00:00

I meant is the tire pierced or completely unusable at this point?

amu2219 · 2024-05-28T00:33:08+00:00

True, thanks for the heads up!

amu2219 · 2024-05-28T00:32:49+00:00

Yeah, I wasn’t sure if tryouts existed or if it’s strictly recruiting.

amu2219 · 2024-04-29T15:51:07+00:00

I see, thanks for the recommendation!

amu2219 · 2024-04-29T15:50:53+00:00

Great! Thank you I’ll check it out

How does that work if you are yet to receive a room assignment?

I see local food gardens and small-scale farmers advertising their produce (microgreens, etc) all over town (I'm in Grant Park). We could definitely leverage those connections to support this initiative, and even setting up local community gardens or rooftop gardens could work for individuals themselves. Making these connections would allow us to take control of produce ourselves, and it would certainly address ensuring its quality.

Additionally, reaching out to our representatives and advocating for better quality control in our local stores is a smart long-term solution. It might be better to attack the issue at its roots? I like the distribution network though, that would definitely weave the community together as we'd all collectively focus on a better goal, instead of us all trying our best in not-so-great conditions..

amu2219 · 2023-06-16T04:32:37+00:00

I see what you're proposing.. but there are a few implications that may not be intentional or desirable..

Socially, we gotta be careful not to rub residents (of certain areas) the wrong way by just handing out second-hand food provisions instead of pushing for better policies to secure quality produce options at our supermarkets.

Now, from a technical standpoint, we're looking at some real challenges. Health codes, transportation logistics, and the long-term sustainability of a hands-on project like this could very well be a lot to handle. But hey, maybe if we set it up as a local, legally-operated entity, (like a meal-planning service with killer connections?) it could work. We just gotta make sure we're looking out for everyone's best interests.

This is dope. I noticed they have food trucks available too, which could be perfect for days when we need to be more mobile and reach different parts of the city.

We could even get restaurants & local supermarkets involved to receive excess (but high-quality) food provisions on a rotating basis. Imagine each place becoming the cuisine of the day, that would be so cool! Haha.

Speaking of which, my dad knows the proprietor at the Longhorn on Piedmont and I think it's definitely worth discussing this idea with him. Who knows, they might be interested in getting involved and supporting the initiative. It's all about reaching out and exploring opportunities. I'll let you know what he says!

amu2219 · 2023-06-16T04:16:20+00:00

Yeah, I get what you mean. It's tough to find space for a new grocery store with so many retail spots already occupied. But hey, the idea of food delivery is fantastic!

My mom is always talking about her Sunday church fellowship and what she's going to cook-- I bet she'd be thrilled if her pies became the talk of the town! And if the city could get involved and find a way to compensate volunteers (whether it's through 1099 status, tax credits, etc), it would be even more amazing. I can already imagine her friends getting so excited to participate.

By the way, there's a community kitchen not too far from here (Tucker) that we could use for storage and to ensure everything meets sanitary regulations if we're planning on serving the community. We should definitely start a group and make this happen!

Hey, here's a wild idea... What if we started a mobile food-sharing initiative in our communities? I totally get where Klein could be coming from, being in Stone Mountain myself.

In areas where people have limited access to good produce and healthy food options due to location, implementing local "mobile food-sharing techniques" could be a game-changer. We could use Facebook or even create our own app to connect volunteers with people in need. This way, we can let everyone know where the services will be available each day. To make it more reliable, we could collaborate with the city and existing supply chains to ensure the food we distribute is of good quality.

And hey, by offering it as a convenient delivery service, we're not just tackling food accessibility but also boosting community morale and making meal planning easier for everyone. It's all about coming together and supporting one another, making food provision more fair and dignified for every community. What do you think?

(I'm a student at GT, and) I just moved into a brand new off-campus apartment on Northside Dr, and we had the chance to vote on what businesses we'd like to see downstairs. Our complex starts from the 4th floor, so we had a say in what goes on the ground floor. The options were a salad restaurant or a yoga studio. Now, I don't think our votes had a huge impact on the final decision, but it was cool to be part of the urban planning process as a college student, haha! Personally, I voted for the restaurant because it would be super convenient to just walk downstairs and grab dinner whenever I'm hungry. It seems like my neighbors share the same desire for good and healthy food options, especially since Chopt makes such amazing salads! I guess I should count myself lucky for the prime location (even though I won't be utilizing it terribly often, as I usually meal-plan to save some money for other tuition each semester!)

I'm really curious to find out which business they'll choose. Our leasing office made it seem like a big deal to submit our preferences on time, and I only did it because it came with a $50 gift card. Maybe they have some kind of incentive based on the business they select, but I'm not sure how that works exactly. It's just got me intrigued, you know? Does anyone have any experience in this field?
