here's a pretty interesting article about atlanta and the architecture of john portman and how both been used as futuristic dystopian backdrops in recent pop culture.

why i love the real housewives of atlanta

Finally we are at lunch; Cynthia shows up first wearing golden serving plates as earrings, and Phaedra quickly follows in her finest goth Easter hat. Phaedra has brought a giant apology bouquet to Cynthia; Cynthia accepts her apology and makes a show out of deleting the incriminating voicemail from last week while simultaneously hypnotizing the wait staff with her Wonder Woman cuff earrings. Kandi shows up and warns everyone she invited Kenya moments before Kenya glides in wearing confetti, saying hello to everyone accept Cynthia. Nene totters in on twenty-inch heels, and Kim brings up the rear. Once everyone is seated, Kenya says, “Is this a couple’s trip? Am I invited?” Cynthia remains stone-faced and says nothing, and for a second I forget how annoying she is in the face of all that ATTITUDE! Kandi smirks while she looks on, waiting for Cynthia to say something, and for the first time ever I’m a little disappointed in Kandi and how much she’s instigating this situation. Kenya declares, “Well, I’m inviting myself!” in the face of Cynthia’s silence, and listen — I know she is a maniac, but I am loving Kenya more and more each week. She will never take the high road!

y'all hear what T.I. did yesterday?

Wednesday afternoon, T.I. said he was pulling out of his driveway and headed to a video shoot. He said he heard on V-103 about the man threatening to jump from 400 Colony Square, the 22-story Midtown building that houses the radio station.

Peachtree Street was temporarily blocked off between 14th and 15th streets, and MARTA buses were rerouted, police said. Witnesses in nearby buildings reported seeing a man sitting on the edge of the building.

"He is visible from the street level," Atlanta fire Capt. Jolyon Bundridge told the AJC.

T.I. "came to the scene and offered to talk to him," Officer James Polite with Atlanta police told the AJC.

An officer at street level recorded a video message from T.I. and sent it to a negotiator on the roof, who showed it to the 24-year-old man.

T.I. said the message simply stated "that I was here and I was looking forward to meeting him and that no matter what's going on in life now, it gets better."

When the man came down, he spoke to T.I. for about five minutes. (via)
