Sidewalk Preachers at the Square

What is up with the sidewalk preachers on the corner of the square facing Marietta Pizza every Friday?

Are they not a public disturbance? Is it legal and do they reserve the corner because if not, I'm going to start bringing my band and just playing over them

They're fucking obnoxious and people just want to enjoy their Friday night without listening to someone's attempt at imposing their religion on everyone else.

Free parking Near Square

Hello,

I’m planning on going to Marietta Square some more to get outside but I noticed the parking lot I went to charge $10.

Is there any places I could park that are near the square and I don’t have to worry about being booted or towed ?

Redevelopment Around Allgood, Fairground, N Marietta Pkwy

Does anyone have any idea if the area of mostly older duplexes between Fairground St NE and Allgood Rd NE (Birney St, Morningside Dr, Ramona St) will ever be redeveloped? Seems like an area ripe for a new direction with housing in various stages of neglect and many in need of renovation. Especially considering how close to the square it is. We see this in other cities around the Atlanta metro area, why not Marietta?

Calling All Adventurers in Acworth, Georgia or Nearby!

Are you ready to embark on a fantastical journey into a Wonderland like no other? I'm seeking 1-2 more players to join my in-person City of Mist campaign, Tsukumogami in Alice Land. This is a whimsical Alice in Wonderland-inspired fantasy adventure with a slice-of-life twist.

What to Expect:

The Setting: A surreal fusion of Wonderland, modern-day elements, and a touch of extra Fae Wild magic. Players will take on the roles of tsukumogami—everyday objects that have recently gained sentience—navigating the madness and charm of Alice Land.

The Campaign: A character-driven adventure full of mystery, wonder, and exploration. Perfect for players who enjoy roleplay, creativity, and a sprinkle of the bizarre.

System: City of Mist with a few minor homebrew tweaks to fit the Wonderland theme.

Logistics:

Location: Acworth, Georgia – our sessions are hosted at The Crazy Book Lady.

Schedule: Sessions rotate between Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays at 1:00 PM (depending on availability). The next session is Thursday at 1:00 PM.

About Me: I’m an experienced GM who loves weaving immersive, collaborative stories. I love ttrpgs, video games, animes, and fantasy novels. I spend a lot of my time watching movies, playing video games and reading. It's been awhile since I've ran a campaign so I might be a little rusty but whether you’re a seasoned player or completely new, all are welcome to join in the fun!

Interested? If this sounds like your cup of tea (or tea party), send me a message with a bit about yourself and your experience with RPGs. Let’s create some magic together in Alice Land!

Need at least one more player for Tsukumogami in Alice land

I'm trying to set up a Supernatural Slice of Life exploration fantasy campaign. It will be taking place in a world similar to Alice in Wonderland called Alice land. It will be using the city of mist system with very few modifications. However we will not be starting out with filled out character sheets. Start off all you need to know is your character's personality and what sort of object they were born from. Sessions will be a shifting schedule with most sessions hopefully being on Tuesday at 1:00 p.m. but it will be shifting from Tuesday Wednesdays and Thursday whichever time we can get most of our players. The first Meetup will be 1:00 p.m. at the crazy book lady if you're interested please message me and let me know

Good private dentist in Marietta or Smyrna? Recommendations please!

I place my trust in the wisdom of the local Redditors :-)

Would like to have a good dentist's office. Too many of them have been purchased by PE groups and are not reliable - they'll show you a little thing and tell you that immediate surgery is the only option.

So hopefully some of you have a practice that you like and trust where they do good work and don't lie to patients. Thank you!

If you can help put Marietta displays on the map this holiday season please join the Official Map of Christmas Lights Near Atlanta Georgia Facebook group.

Amazing Art Exhibit in Marietta, exceptional paintings

Upstairs at the Marietta Art Museum they are exhibiting a lot of Melvin Toledo's paintings. He is a living and active artist with incredible talent in portraiture and somehow, storytelling.

You can easily google him, but these paintings in person are powerful, arresting, and honestly lovely. Trust me, it's worth the visit.

Very wow, very kapow, very amaze.

Winterizing sprinkler system

Hey guys. Bought a home with an irrigation system earlier this year. With winter weather looming, do you guys “winterize” your sprinkler system? Meaning drain them, blow out the water, etc? Or does it generally not get cold enough to warrant that? Thank you.

Business Start Up Resources

Does anyone know of small business resources available for Cobb County? Something like a multiple week course that my husband and I can both take to become more educated on how to open and run a successful business. We’re not looking for anything online, and would want this to be available nights/weekends as we have day jobs.

Curly Hair Color/Blonding Specialist Recommendations Please!

Hello all!!

I've been letting my curls grow naturally for a few years now and am loving the progress I've made. My hair is healthier than ever and I'm ready to damage it again with some light blonde/amber highlights. I'm just so bored with my dark dark brown bland color.

Does anyone have any recommendations for either a blonding specialist who does a great job with lots of varying color highlights? -or- a curly hair/cut specialist? Bonus points if the curly specialist is also a color/blonding specialist as well!!

Thanks for your time and any suggestions you can give!!

No 75 North signs and no labelled truck lanes

There are signs on the asphalt as drivers are going from 285 West to 75 North. However, there are no 75 North signs (on asphalt, bridges, or freestanding) until the 120 loop and there is no labeled truck lanes. No bridges with signs, or signs on the pavement from 285 Past exit 267A. There are 7-8 lanes on 75 North. Does anyone know the reasoning or the rules in this situation? Is this correct?

Would signs help with the traffic issues in this area?

Any truckers have thoughts on this?

I have also posted it here: https://seeclickfix.com/issues/17924879

Looking for ttrpg players

I'm pushing for Supernatural Slice of Life exploration. I am thinking of running campaign where a number of Tsukumogami are born into an Alice and Wonderland like world called Alice land. These Tsukumogami must navigate through the strangeness of their new lives while facing the chaos that can only be described as the dreams of a Madman.

I'm not quite sure what system are we using but most likely it would be one of the son of Oak systems so city of mist or otherscape. Regardless of the system might end up choosing to use character creation would be a create as you play kind of thing. Rather than filling out a sheet with abilities and backstory players would start out with character personality and what object they were born from. Everything else would be filled out during the campaign as situations arise. This mimics the way characters reveal themselves and develop in other media.

If you're interested please send me a message and have a conversation with me
