Maria had me at "multiple catalytic events swirling around him"!
'Catalytic' is Atlanta-Way speak for 'unjustifiable subsidy of Big Real Estate Projects.'
Shaddi Abusaid, new @ajc.com city reporter, does much stronger reporting. Hope his bosses don't notice!

Wow, what a bunch of PR fluff for Atlanta Mayor Dickens, congratulating him on his TAD/TIF extension policy.
It's so Atlanta that @saportareport.bsky.social seems to be doing fine with its #AtlantaWay boosterism, while meatier spinoff, @atlantaciviccircle.org, recently failed for lack of support.
