HEB voluntarily pulled them.Was there a local vape ban enforced? Been calling all the regular spots (H-E-B, planet k, other vape stores) and no one is selling.

Austin just might have the worst governing body out of the "America's brightest new cities" and has for decades. This crap is just helping illuminate it, they have no idea what they're doing.I walk down congress to and from work every day. The homeless problem is getting pretty bad. I've been doing my best to help out folks when I can. But there's just so many that need help. I hope the city can improve this. Also unrelated can someone tell me what i-35 is suddenly now worse mid sept-oct it looks like their doing a ton of roadwork northbound 35 down in South Austin.
Not going to lie, Kinda with Abbot (fucking ugh) putting pressure on Adler to do something about the homelessness problem though let's be honest, the fucking state hasn't done anything about it either and Abbot could have tackled this any time. Driving up to 183 is so foreign to me now with all the tents popping up all over the place.
This state man, I swear. 2nd least vaccinated state, ranked shitty for education, homelessness and child poverty.
Even in the burbs they're starting to show up. In Pflugerville specifically, which we have a law against. I had to resist a facebook pflugerville group argument because all of these bleeding heart people are shaming anyone that didn't want homeless to freely panhandle, calling anyone that disagrees nazis. I wanted to reply about how dangerous and disruptive it is for traffic, and that really there should be rehabilitation as a lot of career panhandlers are drug addicts or have mental health issues. I know because I've heard several of their stories at an AA meeting around rundberg - some of these guys are shaking because their physical addiction to alcohol is so strong they need a medically supervised withdrawal. So instead of arguing I just reported the conversation to admins and they got nuked. Yay social media restraint.
At least a lot of the homeless I've seen are more docile. More alcoholics and heroine addicts. Crackhead and meth addict homeless people in San Francisco are aggressive. I had one in a wheelchair chasing (obviously not keeping up) me and yelling "mother fucker!!!!" straight out of a Shameless episode. Also in San Francisco you see the shit squad in the mornings with streams of shitty soap on streets.
I don't want that solution. It should be rehabilitation and public restrooms. Keep them off the streets, a win for everyone.
I just don't understand how Austin became such a hotspot for the homeless all of a sudden. We don't have resources, and the weather here is awful.

Nah, I see plenty of aggressive ones downtown. I'm a robust/muscular guy, so I'm never worried; but I see plenty of ladies rightfully nervous around these particular homeless people. I know I would be.I find the homeless people here in Austin pretty docile. I have encountered real aggressiveness in San Francisco and Santa Monica/Venice.
I'd imagine the Interstate has a big part of it, as well as our "acceptance for weirdos."I just don't understand how Austin became such a hotspot for the homeless all of a sudden. We don't have resources, and the weather here is awful.
They should be the same price. I used it for Once Upon A Time.The Drafthouse season pass doesn't include 35mm showings, does it? I think regularly they're priced a few dollars more than standard here.

I dunno if the population is increasing, but the Braker / 183 intersection I live next to is starting to look like a shantytown.
Thats horrific and im glad you're okay. Did the cops get involved?So my car got totaled on I 35 dude behind me slammed into my car causing a 4 car collision I'm ok thank God but my cars totaled. I feel like i should blame acl but I dunno. Fucking hate I -35
Yup cops fire trucks ambulances the driver who hit me went the hospital and the guy in front of me did too.Thats horrific and im glad you're okay. Did the cops get involved?

Not before it hits the 90's again though...~30 more hours of hell season.
We are so overdo for the cooldown that next weekend a 2nd cold front will bring lows of 49. Get the heavy bedsheets out, no turning on the fucking heat yet I want 2 months of $140 electric bills first.

Yeahhhh it just sucks because now I don't have a car and my boyfriend is coming into town this week.Fuck that sucks. I'm glad you're okay though. There is always so much going on in I-35 . Construction, new entry patterns, sudden overpass openings, shifting lane lines...
PRAISE ZORDON! WE HAVE A COLD FRONT!
Also - if yall havent been out to the new Emerald Tavern, you need to check it out. They are still insanely busy but they have way more space and theyre still adding more.
I still think they should tone down the area where you buy games and give people more places to sit. They could relegate their purchasable games to wall shelves or maybe put it all in the back and have people order it off a menu. It still takes up too much space currently IMO, but overall, I LOVE the new spot!
I was there on Saturday, super busy and we ended up having to play outside. Those patio tables are not great for playing games on, lol.PRAISE ZORDON! WE HAVE A COLD FRONT!

My morning walk downtown was so awesome today, I'm ready for it to cool down.Man, walking out my door this morning felt like heaven. That cool, cool breeze....
I don't trust the weather now, I feel like I've gotten my hopes up for it to cool down for more than a couple of days at a time that I'm actively avoiding getting excited.
That being said, I really hope this keeps up :/
oh babyi'm looking forward to friday where the low is apparently 51
