Pick one side ROS: green bean casserole, stuffing, sweet potato casserole. Week 13 ranking does not matter, you have to eat this dish every week until week 18

Thanks, that's fair. I'm just tempted by the Bills DST since they were dropped for the bye

Colony Square in the mid 1970s after construction finished.

Atlanta's first big mixed-use project featured offices, a hotel, residences, and commercial space. A little slice of "big city" in a part of town dominated by low-rise buildings.

It's fairly dwarfed now by what's been nearby built since.

I'm likely to get a bye. Should I keep RB stashes Jaylen Wright, Khalil Herbert and Ray Davis, or drop one to get a better playoff DST? Currently using Denver who has LAC and Cinci in our playoffs

In Gulch deal, city shortchanged itself with low opt-out fees for affordable housing Atlanta missed out on at least $3 million to support affordable housing.

SCOOP: With the Gulch deal, the city of Atlanta shortchanged itself by over $3M β€” money that would have funded affordable housing.

Evening, folks -- as promised, I'm doing my first Bluesky live thread of a local city council meeting tonight!

This one's a doozy: the affluent Bay Area suburb of Menlo Park is considering turning 3 downtown parking lots into housing, and people are *furious.*

Grab some 🍿, 🧡starts here!
