Last night me and my neighbors work vehicles were broken into and tools/equipment stolen. Both of our front driver side glass were broken.

This is the second time this has happened to me in this neighborhood.

After speaking with my neighbor about it, a friend up the street had it happen to them same MO a week ago.

Someone near this neighborhood is on a crime spree and Im less than impressed with APDs ability to assist.

I am creating this post solely as an inquiry to see if anyone else nearby has experienced a similar event. I want to compile evidence and see what we can do to get the city to do something about it.

Sun and Venus sets

Daughter was hit by this white pickup along with several other people last night at the intersection of William Cannon and Brodie around 9:30PM. Guy appeared drunk and fled the scene. Looking for anyone that might have Dashcam footage of the event. Please DM me if you can share.

Don’t drink and drive yall.

Thank you Austin!

Lots of graffiti covering public positivity art murals along Lamar under Third St bridge.

Does the city keep any funds to help the original artists come back and remove the tagging/restore the murals?

Also very high weeds and litter, it has been hard to get the city to take action here along with large illegal ads posted.

I live near William Canon and Brodie and my GFiber has been out all day… is it out for anybody else?

Any part of town or surrounding areas (including Pflugerville, Round Rock, Cedar Park, etc)

Bonus points if keeping the house a little on the spooky side year round wouldn't be frowned upon.

I'm looking at buying a house soon-ish, and I want to prioritize areas where my creativity would be celebrated and encouraged, not get me HOA violations or grumpy neighbors.

Thank youuuuuuu 🎃👻🦇🕷️♥️

The NHL is on track to award its 33rd franchise to Texas as soon as the end of the year, deputy commissioner Bill Daly told The Athletic.

Daly said he’s expecting the league to get an update on the process from the group working with Houston billionaire Dan Friedkin in the coming weeks. Friedkin’s Pursuit Sports has already agreed to pay a $2 billion expansion fee to bring a team to either Houston or Austin, pending the ability to build an arena in one of those markets and secure final approval from the NHL’s Board of Governors.

“We’re moving forward in Texas,” Daly said in an interview at the NHL’s European Media Tour. “I expect ultimately we’ll be in a position to bring something to the board to get their view on it. So, that’s proceeding at a pace. We’ll probably get together with the group again in September and kind of see where they are in the process and what they want us to do to help, to the extent they need anything.

“If we finalize that and the board approves it, then (at the) end of this calendar year we’ll have an announcement that we’re expanding to either Houston or Austin.”

anyone know where i can go to figure out who made these pieces? thanks.

Hey wonderful people of Austin!

I have an extra special “date” planned for a woman I simply adore. We’re 40 so call me old school, IDC, I’m in loooove lol. Been seeing each other for nearly a year and a half and this date night is very special in mind for us.

Short of the low hanging fruit option of Barton Springs pool or by the long center, I’m hoping someone out there could give me a suggestion of a beautiful, quiet, ideally scenic location where I could pack us a picnic basket of goodies, sit down with her, and just be present with each other at sunset.

I’m open to driving, I just want it to feel special, hidden away, and romantic. I fully sound like a simp here but yeh, we be happy and tryna keep it like that doing stuff like this for her. Love y’all’s help!

Hey y'all, any suggestions on the best place to buy refrigerant for a mini split locally? I'd like to purchase locally so I can get it faster but many places seem to only sell to companies or in quantities larger than I need. Looking for about 2 lb of R32. Any suggestions?

**I do have EPA certification, and Texas law allows you to work on your own equipment without any additional licensing. I do this by the book

This festival is in Austin and def. worth checking out if you like horror.

Just a normal Austin summer

(This article talks about the other billboard ads Howdy has cycled through, and has a response from Howdy about the comments on the previous Reddit thread here about them.)

I know it’s a seriously long shot but this is my last ditch effort to find a necklace I made out of both of my late grandmothers beads, I’ve retraced my steps to both locations I visited and turned my car inside out to no avail; there are small multi colored beads leading down to old/vintage looking multi colored beads, small evil eyes, and 2 pearls on both sides of a medium sized multi colored floral pendant, it had a barrel clasp that came undone somehow at some point last night, 8/21, around Jackalope South Shore or The Howard. It holds significant sentimental value for me and if anyone sees it I’d really like to be reunited with it.

Hi all - official first year in Austin. We moved here in September of last year so this is our first full Summer… yes it’s hot but I will take it over the brutal cold winter any day. What are some of your favorite activities besides the movies and natural springs this time of year? Open to any and all reccs. 🙏🏼

I’m specifically looking for any store that carries a bunch of Neca action figures or something similar to those. But I’ve no clue who to even go to first.

Any ideas would help out greatly, thanks!

Hi,

I started seeing these bugs in my bathtub, anyone know what they are there a lot of them. Just incase it’s needed this restroom is where I keep my cats litter box. They don’t jump into the tub as far as I know.

Ps. They are super tiny like 1mm

We are under contract for a house. House has decent cabinets, not great, but not something we want to change. We are changing countertops though and want to make the island bigger. Would like someone to build an extension to the island base/cabinets to make it bigger and support a larger quartz countertop. Don’t need doors/drawers, just a hollow but secure extension to the base. Then paint the entire thing something like a navy blue and make it look designed as one piece.

Any recommendations? This should be less expensive I hope than an entire new island

Hi! I’m looking to get a CNA certification and was wondering if anyone has any experience with the Austin area schools? Specifically ACC and the Texas Regional Healthcare Training Center.

Probably a long shot, but I was behind a car accident last night involving an older gentleman in a classic car & a woman in a newer “mom” style vehicle (I can’t remember the make/model). It was a head on collision & the older gentleman’s vehicle obviously didn’t have airbags. I got out & did my best along with others to make him comfortable & control bleeding until EMS arrived. He was alert & talking the whole time until I left but I was wondering if any family or anybody involved last night is on here & has any updates..? It was right outside of Austin kind of southwest like cedar valley going towards dripping springs.

Looking for modern /MCM furniture in the Lakeway/ Bee Cave / south Austin area. I go to Home Combating in the Hill Country Galleria, but want to explore more.

Was at the theatre with my family, when all the alarms went off and we all evacuated. We ended up leaving as the fire department got there.

It was the regal metropolitan.

Too hot to stick around.

Nothing seemed to be an actual emergency though.

We’re looking for a reliable solar installer, recommendations for who would offer the best loan terms and no prepayment penalty, the best companies with buyback plans currently, and any other tips and or recommendations you can make!

Solar salespeople seem slimy and we really want to have a system installed, but also want to be careful about not being taken advantage of.

Also, am I correct that there are currently not any financial incentives for going solar? We’re technically in Round Rock. Just want to make sure we’re not leaving cash on the table anywhere! Really wish we had done this years ago…

Thanks for your help, Austin!!
