@func_sledge @ZaidJilani *none* of the benefit? It impacts the entire metro region from Holly Springs, Braselton, Macon, Lagrange, and Convington.

And Savannah would love to connect too.

@betterATL For $441m, at $55m/mi for rail, they could build to Clayton county, and pay for it via parking revenue

@NickFreiling @StihlUser If you're willing to drive the new car until it's dead, at some point it is less reliable than the used car.

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@NickFreiling As most things, an education in basic car mechanics, and ability to research online is extremely valuable.

That can help you find a used car without a dealer, and give you the power to maintain it better than a dealer does, at a fraction of the cost.

@oakieone @tomfgoodwin I am thinking that as Ice's become older and rarer, I'm going to want to add remote cutout mufflers to accentuate the sound like Porsche and bmw do.

I want some additional noise, some of the time.

@jimloveswhisky @tomfgoodwin This, did a mountain drive this weekend; wife thought I wanted to drive fast in my car.

No, I wanted a low center of gravity, an unloaded suspension, the windows down.

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@tomfgoodwin Is it even a sports car if it's not a manual transmission?

I do like rolling the windows down, hearing the engine roar.

My sports car is also a family sedan, an above 6 second 0 to 60, and has a racing series.

@eloffd To put it in Context, Sugar CRM could be installed on a droplet in 10 minutes 15 years ago for $10/mo - but yet Salesforce has thrived.

@lawmanstocks @ATL_SCOOP This is a federal highway; Kemp and Congress control it today.

City of Atlanta, especially a 1 time mayor from 4 years ago, didn't do this.

Meanwhile, Ossoff and Warnock voted for 1 of the biggest Georgia highway funding projects under Biden (i16)

@atrupar It doesn't increase the teacher's salary in absolute terms, but it does in relative terms.

38t in debt, taxes aren't going to magically pay that off to social spend, only debt spending does that.

@TonerousHyus The state shouldn't sponsor only 2 political parties either. Ranked choice general would lead to less polarization, lower costs.

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@EWErickson You're equating a handful of police cars at protests to 100s of miles of rail, most of what is known as downtown, and shipping civilians to Kentucky, and full martial law.

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@EWErickson We should abolish all parties (and primaries) in Georgia, why should the state pay for creating polarization and worse choices come November.

That's why you politicize the courts, when the legislature has 159 counties, and the gov wins by 1%; they're not representing ppl

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@EWErickson If partisan races are so bad, Eddy did this year's legislation only make races in the metro area strictly non partisan?

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@JesseO007 @Brahbocop @atrupar Can you admit that "soon" is a propagandized unknown?

The war was supposedly "almost complete" by day 3. 1 month in, April, it was to be over in 2 weeks. 1 month past that goal, and we have no clear next timeline.

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@EWErickson Weird conservative take;

new arrival directly impacts historical "rights" to resources of incumbents; and that's somehow okay because the state provided solution is better.

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@HL_Impact @PatAdams96 "we" is millions of people get a small voice in the Senate vs 50 thousand people in each Wyoming, S Dakota, N Dakota still having a louder voice.

@Zaphoid13 @atrupar Coal ash: not recyclable

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@2020Jeter @EWErickson With side mentions of he didn't actually live in the state and was ineligible for office.

And he campaigned on vampires and warewolves.

Against a candidate that had recently passed major Veterans and Highway funding for the State

[Stephen @smileysteve]

@bluestein He's correct;

Buddy Carter is running on his record with Trump, who won't be President for 4 of the 6 year Senate term.

Ossoff/Warnock have records of I16 funding, Ga VA funding, Chips bringing jobs to Georgia.
