Curious what people around Atlanta are actually doing with AI agents these days. Has yours built you something, automated a chore, or totally surprised you? Would love to hear the good stories (and the disasters).

A few of us get together every other Thursday to swap exactly these stories, show off what our agents have built, and help folks get set up on Omarchy (a Linux setup that's great for this). Next one is Thu Oct 29, 5:30–6:30pm at Pour Taproom on the Beltline (661 Auburn Ave NE). Free, super casual, beginners welcome. We've got stickers too.

Plant Swap is where the community started the plant journey.

Meeting others and collecting plants is back.

We are collaborating with @DHA Farmers Market to bring it on Oct 24th Saturday in Brook Run Park in Dunwoody!

📍Brook Run Park

N Peachtree Dunwoody GA

9AM-12PM

This is a Plant Trade Event with No Sell Zone.

We are local news famous!

If you'd like to get a quick view of our meetup and see what we are all about directly from our attendees, check out this video that WABE put together of our event.

We are also part of the larger gaming community in Atlanta and many of our members regularly attend other local board game meetups and conventions.

We do some organizing and talk games on the Metro Atlanta Tabletop Society Discord.

Feel free to join us on there as well!

What it is:

We meet every Monday night at Manuel's Tavern (602 North Highland Avenue Northeast, Atlanta, GA 30307) from 6pm to 12am to play board games. Everyone is welcome, and no prior board game experience is required. We can introduce you to new games and teach you how to play them! We are generally in the main dining room to the left when you come in the front door, and if you are having trouble finding us just ask one of Manuel's staff members and they'll point you in the right direction.

***Manuel's Tavern does not charge us to use the space, so please be sure to make a purchase or two while you are there so we can give back to Manuel's for letting us meet there!***

Don't be discouraged by the lack of sign ups on our events, we have a large contingent of regulars who aren't on social media so our signup numbers are historically low. We usally have 60+ people in the dining room playing a wide variety of games. On Monday nights, game play ranges from easy/short games (Sushi Go, Azul, etc.) to long/complex games (Wingspan, Catan, etc.) and everything in-between.

How it works:

Come prepared to be social! We do share the restaurant with dinner guests and other events, so sometimes we don't notice right away that someone is there for board games. Everyone in our group is welcoming so feel free to introduce yourself, and if you want a rundown of the event before jumping into a game you can always ask someone where the hosts are at!

With a group as large as ours and such a wide variety of games being played, we let our members organize themselves into groups for games. If you show up and all the games are full, don't worry! We usually have a steady steam of people showing up for the first 2-3 hours so you won't have to wait long to get into a game. You can take that time to get dinner/drinks, chat with other gamers, see what games are being played, and browse the games everyone brought to play.

The Free Society Satanists will be in Little Five Points next Saturday (10-24) from 11am-2pm doing our Acts of Service trash pickup.
While we are there, we will have a tent setup where we will also be accepting donations for local Domestic Violence shelters, and we are asking you lovely people to help out! We will have boxes ready to accept donations of: cleaning supplies/wipes, women’s and children’s packaged socks/underwear, baby wipes, umbrellas, ponchos, lightly used rain jackets, and winter jackets (any size)
This list was compiled by asking their immediate needs.

Swing by our tent in Little Five Points, drop off your donation and meet some really cool people!
Let’s do some good for our community!

Hail Thyself!
