Zoo Atlanta welcomed its first southern three-banded armadillo pup, a rare species that rolls into a tight protective ball. Native to South America and Near Threatened, it faces habitat loss and human activity, making this birth a win for conservation and awareness.

LUSCIOUS & LIVELY THAI FLAVORS BLOOM AT PINK LOTUS IN WEST MIDTOWN. Glance around West Midtown’s Pink Lotus restaurant and you will see the eponymous color in varied shades: Fuchsia cushions and raspberry triangle pillows dot long benches around the main dining room, pale fresh blossoms sit atop tables, candy-hued paper lanterns hang from the ceiling, and a bright mural showcases the namesake flowers. Less expected are the numbers of people seated around the space who are wearing pink. Though there’s no dress code that requires or even suggests pink clothing, on my recent visits there seemed to be communal agreement that it’s fun to wear the titular hue. But if your wardrobe lacks pink, don’t let that stop you from visiting. Decor elements from floor tiles to framed fabrics underscore the fact that all colors and even gingham and plaid are welcome here. With Pink Lotus, the 26 Hospitality Group team aims to spotlight lesser-known dishes of Thai cuisine. Presenting authentic regional specialties from across Thailand, the menu offers a range of dishes from homey classics to modern creations. Shareable appetizers and combination plates at lunch and dinner make it easy to sample multiple temptations in one visit. As a greeting and awakening of the senses, once seated you’re given a towelette with essential oils to wipe hands and a delicate drink made of lemongrass and pandan, a spiky plant known as “Asian Vanilla,” to perk up the palate. Servers are eager to answer questions and recommend favorites among the array of menu options. From mild to super hot, spice levels can be customized to suit personal preferences. Many dishes can also add additional proteins including chicken, seafood, beef or tofu... Read more in the current issue of @SimplyBuckhead out now! 📝 Hope S.

WHEN THE DIGITAL ERA HANDS YOU LEMONS GRAB A LEMONADE FROM LIL HOMIES! If you ask King Pickens, 12, and his brother, Sheddrick “Junior” Coney, 14, an old-school touch is good for business. The two prefer to meet their customers face to face as the co-founders of Lil Homies with Lemonades, a grassroots beverage company peddling more than 25 flavors. It started when their mom, Smilesha Pickens, drove past a roadside lemonade stand during her delivery route job in 2020. Inspired by the sight of the kid outdoors and not on a digital device, she brought the idea home to her two sons. “Our mother had faith in us,” Coney says. “She saw potential in us.” At first, the boys sold drinks to their friends at school. By March 2021, when feedback was positive, they decided to make the leap and take their then-modest array of flavors— classic lemonade, blueberry, raspberry and strawberry—on Uber rides and MARTA trains to reach populated areas such as Piedmont Park and Atlantic Station. Coney and Pickens established a new headquarters in 2025: the corner of Deering Road and Mecaslin Street in the Westside neighborhood. To ensure they were welcome in their new area, they introduced themselves to pedestrians and passing cars, even checking in with neighbors during wintry weather. It worked. Today, business is booming. Lil Homies is available for inperson purchases most days of the week, from roughly 3 until roughly 6 p.m. in their usual spot. The boys share the work, taking turns collecting orders and money, checking supplies and distributing drinks. For the most part, the younger brother holds the sign with the list of flavors. Both boys make it a point to interact with customers. “My brother used to always do the talking, and one day, I had to speak up for myself,” Pickens says. “And I think I sold almost all the drinks that day..."

@Major_Atl @GuySand570 @HollyKesler @thornbrid Chump?

@GuySand570 @HollyKesler @thornbrid And this is the 'Kicker' Democrats in 'Blue' Atlanta pay more in taxes, generate most of the State annual GDP, and represent over 60% of the state population; But because of Republican gerrymandering Republicans control the State Government.

🚨FULTON COUNTY, GEORGIA CLOWN SHOW EXPOSED 🎪🤡 🎬Pretty sure this is EPISODE 317! Check out the ballot questions Democrats just dropped on their primary ballot and then let’s talk FACTS: “-4- On January 28, 2026, the FBI raided the Fulton County elections office and took your personal data. Do you think they should have your personal voter data?” “-5- Are you aware a sitting Republican Fulton County Board of Commissioner served as a witness, alongside other 2020 election conspiracy theorists, on the affidavit the FBI used to steal your private election information?” LMAO. The gaslighting is next-level. Here’s the REAL circus act: The FBI didn’t “raid” or “steal” anything. They executed a lawful federal search warrant signed by a judge to grab public 2020 election records — ballots, tabulator tapes, and voter rolls — for an integrity probe. These aren’t your “private data.” They’re government property that campaigns, parties, and data brokers buy legally every day. And spare us the fake privacy outrage: the federal government already owns your tax records, SS data, Census info, DMV files… basically everything. But suddenly archival voter rolls are a national privacy crisis? Give me a break. Then they attempt to smear Republican Commissioner Bridget Thorne (District 1) — a Georgia Tech grad, track Hall of Famer, software engineer, certified commissioner, 27-year North Fulton resident, former poll worker, and grassroots leader — as a “conspiracy theorist” for daring to tell the truth under oath. For the not so smart…this is defamation and libel, how many voters, how many counts would that be? This is the Fulton County Democrat machine in full meltdown mode: • Smear any Republican who demands transparency. • Scare voters with “they took your data!” hysteria. • Control the narrative to bury any questions about 2020. They’re not protecting your privacy. They’re protecting their cover-up. Real election trust dies when officials hide records and attack qualified public servants who want accountability. Stop falling for the circus, Fulton. Demand facts, not fear. Transparency isn’t tyranny — it’s how free elections survive.

Practical applications of grounding to support health ✅️ Grounding may play a role in not only improving the body's natural ability to function, but may also play a role in the healing of disease and the prevention of disease development in the first place. ✅️ Studies so far suggest that becoming a part of the earth's global DC circuit enhances our conductive health, which has far reaching implications to all our organ systems that utilize DC energy and conductivity to work, including but not limited to: our central and peripheral nervous system, our musculoskeletal system, and our cardiovascular system. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @HealthyFellow @LoriShemek The human body grounded to the global electrical circuit

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I recently stopped by this Cajun restaurant and everything was on point. I had the broiled oysters, a crab cake, and the drink flight, and all of it was genuinely great. The service was immaculate the entire time and parking was easy, which I appreciated."

@qatarairways I got my refund after 30 days and filing a dispute with PayPal. Things happen and the lesson is use a bank card that you can dispute if need be. I will fly Qatar Airways again.
