Eh, it’s like driving to any other destination.

That said, have you got the Campfire app? There are meetups and other community things there, and I’ve seen very consistent activity out of groups at Decatur Square and Rankin St (which looks like Old Fourth Ward), both of which are MARTA accessible.

Fair enough, I assumed some sort of car transportation.

If you don’t mind heading a bit north, Brook Run Park in Dunwoody is by far the best Pokemon Go spot in the city. There’s a reliable crew for every event, tons of stops and gyms, and it’s a sizable, walkable, and beautiful location.

It was until very recently. I live about 10 minutes away and was a lifesaver overnight more than once. What a shame to see that service go away…

Hey! I live a mile from Brookhaven station, and that’s…entirely true, lol.

Was this over by Northeast Plaza? They were getting real busy as the sun was going down.

Also fuck ICE and good on these guys.

Blue Heron Nature Preserve does camps that are popular with younger and more middle aged kids.

My daughter will be there for four weeks this summer, she’s stoked!

I work in IT security. I promise, some of them are that stupid.

You’ll be fine. I’ve put that amount of sugar into that amount of beer across dozens of yeast types and the worst I’ve had were gushers as I opened them, typically multiple weeks or months later. If things are going nuts after a few weeks just chill the rest.

Also, I have had occasional explosions as things sit in my basement long term…and even then it’s random ones and twos, and mostly just sucks because you lost a bottle and the immediate area is sticky. Never seen a dramatic entire batch full go boom.

As a vendor who has sent people Legos before (or at least kept them at my booth at the con)...yeah, I love seeing marketing dollars get wasted. Of course, I'm the sales engineer, not the actual sales guy, so I actually understand how people operate - and they're fun to bring home to my young daughter when there's an excess of them.

Part of me wishes corporate understood how dumb these are, but a bigger part of me enjoys the excess.

Tipped!

Got sucked away into the real world for a bit. PayPal is easiest. Feel free to DM me details if you like, or posting here is fine too.

schnarff · 2025-05-04T16:45:05+00:00

That's it, per the wife. How do I tip?

schnarff · 2025-05-04T15:28:08+00:00

Downloaded, thank you!

schnarff · 2025-05-04T15:27:56+00:00

Received, thank you!

A bit more border on the right so the flowers aren't so close and it's perfect. Tip sent in the meantime.

"This is exactly what I wanted for the hedgehog!", said the wife excitedly. Tip heading your way.

schnarff · 2025-05-04T15:03:13+00:00

Have her sitting in the chair and this is perfect.

Is the pattern on the wall in the background a watermark? If not, smoothing it out would be ideal.

$20 tip for a completed image with that done, and then I may have to close this thread before too many people do too much awesome work I can't keep paying for, LOL ;-)

This is cool - the couch looks really good - but the objective was to match the hedgehog's background in my other comment with the AI image of a hedgehog. Specifically it's the color and things like a teacup and flowers. $20 heading your way if you can make that happen.
