In an ecosystem disrupted by federal volatility, Atlanta leaders will be judged not by their rhetoric, but by their willingness to act — to upzone where it’s uncomfortable, to tax where it’s overdue, and to preserve affordability before it disappears.

Better transit is possible. We just need leaders with vision, competence, presence (as in, they ride the system so they have a stake in the system succeeding), consistency, and flexibility. Phil Eng and Randy Clarke have that Jonathan Hunt might have the juice too.

Trekked to the 7 Subway at Grand Central today to see “Abstract Futures” (2025), the newest public artwork to grace the walls of the New York City subway system, designed by the feminist art collective Hilma’s Ghost, a 600-square-foot glass mosaic mural. Remarkable!

My wokest opinion is that futures trading shouldn’t be legal for any trader. If you don’t believe in a stock, divest, and let the price fall. The bets and counterbets are just weird gambles that reward the risk-addled rich and periodically screw over our economy.

While I was playing around videoing airplanes flying under the aurora last night, I had my other camera taking stills. Here's 1661 stills connected covering 55 actual minutes. The bright, fast moving streaks are the airplanes. I sped this up faster than normal because we all have swiping to do.
