Return of "Return to Atlanta"
I really hope the author of this blog indeed does come back to chronicle the changing landscapes of Atlanta’s Beltline.
While I don’t have any “before” pictures to pull, I may consider doing this sort of series myself to at least give feedback from my memories as an on/off/on/off/on again resident here. I remember the Atlanta of the mid 1980’s in my childhood, then again starting 10 years later in my early adult years until 2000– then again for 3 years starting in 2005, and finally the present.
(You know I’ll definitely be doing this for Japan whenever I wander back that way; from what I can tell, Shibuya is largely unrecognizable from even 2 years ago when I was last there.)
Federating the fediverse: BlueSky alpha version
ICYMI:
There’s a way for you to crosspost to BlueSky from your own #indieweb enabled website thanks to Joel’s (@joel@otter.garden) additions to Bridgy (created by Ryan (@snarfed.org@snarfed.org).
Also, I’m actually doing it right now and have been for about a week or so. So you’ll notice likes/reposts and comments coming from over there on my site and can interact from there, as I craft my one-man SNS outpost on the innanetz.
Details on how to do it here: Bridgy Bluesky setup
Happy Belated Subway Day
Yesterday was NYCMTA’s Subway Day– On October 27, 1904 the New York City Subway started running it’s then total length between City Hall downtown and 145th Street uptown past Harlem (which was literally countryside back in those days)
Here’s a video they posted on their Threads/Instagram account showing all the different trains they’ve run throughout their 119 years. My personal fav, the R33 Redbird is shown with the ⑦ train mark, just as I used to ride it 35 years ago when I was a kid heading to Corona and Shea Stadium with my dad.

I really hope Chris doesn’t mind me borrowing literally 90% of his layout, formatting and general overall aesthetic from Boffo Socko when I’m ready to smooth out the edges of my site here.
They way it looks and how information is presented is just what you’d expect of a person who is rather efficient at capturing and categorizing information.

Well I for one am glad you’ve made it back.
I too also had a crazy meltdown involving my lack of skill at writing Go code and paying attention to changes at my VM provider. So here I am back with a Wordpress version of my digs here.
