Atticus Finch (of Georgia)

Modern car headlights I find to be blinding, but the street lamps can be solved easily by turning down their brightness and a colored lens can be done if a person wants it took like the ones before.

Also, directional lighting at night is good as it helps bring back the night sky for people.

100%

Exactly. I don’t think it’s you getting old, it’s a real objective quality of the lighting.

A lot of folks have responded (correctly) that she was addressing troops on the ground, not a draft. Will you do the right thing and take down this post?

Has anyone else noticed we are living in an epidemic of harsh, unnatural lighting. The newer outdoor nighttime lighting is horribly bright and harsh. It is becoming a real blight on our landscape. Light affects our health and well being in ways that aren’t being considered.

No one is changing based on the brilliance of our arguments. Much less based on our judgment.

Not really.

My humble desire is to have some small influence to help people think and act in better ways. There’s no chance of that without relationship. If your question is the second thing I ask I just might have destroyed any chance at relationship, this of influence, this of change.

I really like this podcast in general but this episode discussing Plato with Cornel West is off the charts good.

Respectfully, no. I can’t even conceive of living my life in such a way.

What if we normalized treating each other like human beings first instead of immediately dragging politics into every conversation?

May there be better days ahead for that beautiful land and proud people.

Outstanding advice.

That’s one of my all time favorite quotes too! If only we could all keep it in mind more often (and I’m preaching to myself). Thanks!

Excellent.

Yes.

👍👍

Great, I just followed. Thanks!

So last night we “sprang forward” but I’m about to embark on a drive to Mississippi which means once I cross the GA/Bama line I “fall back” so time is essentially at a standstill for me. 😂

What are your best (accurate) sources on BlueSky for following Iran war news?

OMG

I hope we do. I think we are the two best teams.

Boozer is an absolute stud.

Spring has come to South Georgia. Azaleas are here for their brief annual appearance!

Class action? 😂

Yikes.

And just as an aside, invalidating someone’s feelings is part of the job. I have clients with all kinds of feelings about what the law should be. To be blunt, I don’t care. One of my jobs is to give correct legal advice based on what is, not based on feelings.

Grape Bubble Yum is the correct answer.

A movie I’d always been intrigued by never watched until tonight - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind -

That’s a 10/10 movie. Yep. I get it.

Debated Ray’s or The Fish Net in Lake Park. Ended up at Fish Net.

But I’ve had many good meals at Ray’s.

There’s a winning message! Tell Americans they are “uppity” and tell them what cars to drive!

I swear some of y’all must really want Trump or someone like him to be president forever. Seriously, folks don’t want to be condescended to like this. Won’t win many votes.

A live shot, no doubt.

Nothing wrong with temporarily suspending the gas tax to help folks out in a difficult time. This is just good politics.
