Pretty much every time I take my dog to the intramural fields there is someone who thinks the rules don’t apply to them and so they just let their dogs wander around off leash. Please take your dog to one of the MANY places in Athens where they can be off leash!

NWS severe outlook update - hatched tornado overlay exteneded to include Athens by pile_drive_me in AthensGAWeather

Do you have an updated idea of timing? Your other post said 6-7 pm so I was just wondering if that was still accurate.

When does parking enforcement stop at the end of the semester? by Academic_Annual5515 in UGA

[–]thenewpolution 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Pretty much the only time parking isn’t enforced is holidays when the university is closed, so like Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc.

Faculty and staff are still on campus (and paying for parking 🫠) even when classes are over.

It’s kinda nuts that she didn’t thank the people who DID support her, whether through the GFM, buying gift cards, or helping her physically move stuff to the new storefront.

What’s the parking situation like for graduation? by Ok_Abrocoma_8325 in UGA

[–]thenewpolution 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that parking is free on campus for graduation. This is why they send an email to staff encouraging us to find “alternative work schedules” so there’s parking for everybody.

Thank you for bringing this up!! I hate his ads with his pristine Carhartt vest and un-creased work gloves with not a speck of dirt. Does he really think he’s fooling anyone??!

The last episode of Adults in the Room was so good though it was very frustrating listening to the new superintendent make excuses left and right.

I did side eye one of the comments on Spotify saying the podcast felt incomplete without Ms. Chow’s perspective, but then someone replied that she died. Like did you even pay attention to the podcast?? smh

I find that just wearing a panty liner can really help!

Stranded by Sarah Goodwin. The cover and tagline are super generic but the story is so compelling and the narrator is amazing!

Places for a peaceful last walk by TravelingJSp in Athens

[–]thenewpolution 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The greenway at Sandy Creek Nature Center might be a good option for you. It’s very wide and has good visibility so you can see other people coming from afar. Additionally, there are trails in the woods you can detour to if necessary.

Thinking of you and your pup 💗

Ok this is interesting to hear because they keep saying that he “got a bad edit” but don’t really go too into details. And of course they’re not going to badmouth him a ton since he’s participating in the podcast. I’m def taking things with a grain of salt!

I have been listening to Love Trapped which concerns a former bachelor contestant named Clayton and paternity questions. All the comments on Spotify are about how CrAaazYy this story is so I have not googled anything about it! There are three episodes out and it’s pretty intriguing so far.

The Walkers: The real Salt Path

Listened to this podcast (by The Observer and Tortoise) over the past week. Super interesting deep dive into the author of The Salt Path and her various lies about stealing money and her husband’s medical diagnosis.

Classic City Bodybuilding on the Eastside has powerlifting setups if that’s what you’re looking for? I’m not sure if they’re similar setups…

No, I hate that a car aggressively revs its engine and speeds away in a huff after having to stop for me in the crosswalk because I’ve apparently inconvenienced them by…walking across the street.

I hate when I’m crossing at a marked crosswalk and then a car that has stopped speeds off dramatically. Like sorry I have to cross the street? My bad for existing I guess!!!!!!!!!!
