Basically the title lol. Met with a friend this morning who usually complains about how hot Dallas is. Today they were talking about it being too cold to enjoy being outside and that just reinforced the fact that some people just want to complain about the weather without actually doing something about it.

Looking to rent

So I live in farmersville right now, I work in garland and the traffic has got so bad I do not wanna deal with it any longer. I have been using marketplace but there are soo many scams it's making it difficult to find a place.

I have a 7 year old son that I get every other weekend, would prefer to find a house for rent paying no more than $1250.00 but am also realistic about that being really hard to find. Am open to just a single room to rent for him and myself.

Looking for a safe place with no drugs or alcohol abuse. I work at a machine shop near shiloh and forest and I would like to stay close to that area. Maybe like 15 miles max.

I am clean, quiet, financially responsible, respectful and looking for the same if I was to rent a room.

Please advise if you have any recommendations, know someone, or have a place for rent yourself.

Thank you.

Preferably somewhere north of Dallas (Richardson/Plano/Frisco/McKinney) most places I’ve gone that I thought would be cool have been dead lol

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to know how locals call their two local airports.

For example, if you’re flying out of DAL, do you say you’re flying out of Love Field?

And what do you say if you’re flying out of DFW? Do you say it exactly like that, D-F-W? Or is there a local nickname for it?

Thanks and I appreciate your feedback.

We picked up a 5 year old FIV positive boy cat in uptown dallas last night. We took him to the vet this morning and he isn’t microchipped. But he did test positive for FIV. The vet said he may test negative if they test again in 2 months but we have a cat at home and can’t take the risk of holding onto him. We’ve gone to 3 shelters and called 1 and can’t find a shelter willing to take him. He is incredibly sweet and friendly. Urgently looking for advice on where we can surrender him or someone willing to take him. We tried calling around to a few FIV friendly smaller private shelters and couldn’t get in contact with anyone.

Before (& even at the beginning of) the pandemic, there used to be a plant-based vegetarian restaurant in downtown Dallas that had a plant-based Cuban sandwich made of jackfruit. Its reviews stated it also had a bar & people liked its unique drinks. The food was probably plant-based Latin American. It has probably closed down since. I had ordered multiple times from it when I was in Dallas for a month but never went in-person. Does anyone remember its name?

Thanks

EDIT: Its name was "Shoals". It went under although it had raving reviews.

Passed down to me from my Nana. We shared a love of journalism and both had the habit of saving everything… but I realized she held onto them for years without ever even opening the closet, much less the box, they were in. I find myself doing the same.

What should I do with these? What CAN I do with these?

How is it, is it worth the money?

I’ve never been to either. My family is coming to visit for thanksgiving and they have small kids. Im curious as to what each event is like and if one has better displays / lights from the other. Thanks!

Not good. Not good at all.

Edit: All flights of any kind, commercial or private are grounded for an unknown period of time. All flights from Mexico and Europe into the US are now also grounded. Flights still in the air are now being diverted to other airports so planes can land. Cargo flights (like UPS, FedEx, DHL, and others) are also grounded. Oddly enough, flights within Alaska and Hawaii are not impacted by this event. Oh, and Microsoft has released a statement that this isn’t their fault.

Edit 2: FAA said everything is back to normal. Flights are still being cancelled by some airlines for the remainder of the evening, while delays and more cancellations are expected to carry over into tomorrow.

Due to the FAA grounding I am not able to go to a movie review show with comedians Tim Heidecker and Greg Turkington at 8pm today at the Granada theater

Would anyone like a free ticket to the show? Please DM me!

Not saying all hell is breaking loose, people are taking it pretty well given the circumstances, but a drunk man just tripped over his own feet and collapsed into the first class barrier wall and I don’t know how, he didn’t seem drunk at all until the fall

Update 4.5 hours later: So, the drunk guy might have actually been a genius all along and was just trying to put himself out of misery before being stuck on this plane with the rest of us

I live in deep ellum (unfortunately) and here to say that I love the street closures on the weekends now. It’s never been so quiet and peaceful. I’m hoping they keep it up until my lease is up.

Hi, I’m looking to help my sister preserve her wedding dress (potential cleaning and preservation) please let me know if there are any places in or near Dallas, that do this (& you’d recommend). Please also let me know if there are any places to avoid!

Tips/advice are also welcome, thank you

About 15 min ago I was in Walmart on retail road. Everyone, store staff included, was evacuated immediately. When I got through the entry doors, there were at least a dozen police officers surrounding the entrance/exits.

Does anyone know what happened?
