I always tell people that Trump wants to run America like Atlanta: a playground for a oligarchs and segregationists, where referendums can be annulled by decree, residents are more surveilled than any city on Earth, and dissenters get hit with RICO charges for the sin of handing out flyers

Midtown and downtown Atlanta at sunrise. A thick layer of fog blankets the ground, with buildings rising out of it.

Okay I'm a fan of security as much as the next person, but throwing this in my face for a script that *I* wrote is a step too far.

The number of hoops I make myself jump through for the sake of maintaining the privacy of my users is, quite frankly, absurd.

Meanwhile these fucking knobs have *actual resources* to do it properly and they don't even bother. What the fuck man. What the fuck are we even doing.

Man who the fuck approved a massive warehouse just across the tracks from Oakland MARTA? I can’t think of anything more counterproductive for our ongoing issues.

I mean I try to have one or two reflective surfaces on me; but I’m a huge dork. Telling the average person to wear something reflective is just shifting the responsibility and victim blaming.

Home Depot allowed Flock to set up cameras in all their parking lots here so of course they're cool with ICE kidnapping people from their stores.

Okay to MARTA’s credit they’ve got people at Five Points directing football fans to the correct platforms for the stadium. Haven’t seen that in a while.

Atlanta viewed from a camera at I-285 and GA 400 with the sun setting from the west. The lighting is perfect.
