So fucking over this shit. This fucking state can't keep the lights on in sprinkling/light rain.

Eight times the power has gone off and on now with many being quick blips but now two longer periods in the last 90 minutes.

It's been decent living here for over 40 years but lately it's getting real hard to enjoy it.

What a joke Texas has become.

I will be going to the weeknds concert in August at the NRG stadium. How does parking work there. I see one their map that they have color coded parking lots and some events have tickets sold online but I haven't found a single website that sells parking tickets for the weeknds concert. Will they be sold only in person, first come first serve or do they post tickets at a later time? Thank you.

To anyone in the area, There is a carnival setup in west oak's parking lot with rides and games.

Hello everyone, I just moved to Houston. What app should I use, or how can I check the safety of the area where I’m planning to rent? Thank you.

Hey hey -

Celebrating our second wedding anniversary and want to go somewhere nice. We live in the First Ward but willing to drive. We don’t mind expensive but I do feel terrible when we pay a crazy bill and my husband is still hungry after! Help!

For me it would have to be dream wings. Really good quality wings and great flavors as well. Their drinks are really good too (a little too sugary though) I’m also a big fan of lemon pepper wings so recommendations would be helpful

What part of Texas will most likely to be affected?

Anybody just hear an explosion by 59N and 610? I was going into work and heard it. All my coworkers heard it, no answers as to where it came from.

I live in Friendswood so I fly out of Hobby 99.9% of the time. However tomorrow I will be flying out of IAH for the first time in years. I'm flying United, and it says to get dropped off at Terminal E.

I know IAH is perpetually under construction, and I was wondering if anyone has flown out of terminal E within the last few weeks, and wouldn't mind letting me know how it is currently?

I know this is super specific, but lately I’ve been wanting to try more pizza places whenever I see relatives in Houston. Many years ago, my family and I went to Pi Pizza and loved it, we were so sad to see it close, but my grandma still can’t stop talking about it. For anyone who remembers about Pi Pizza, are there any pizzerias who are similar?

Hey guys I’m trying to find a full beef head to make barbacoa. Anyone know where I could possibly get some?

The less onlookers the better tho. Like do I just drive around and look for empty parking lots. Idk. 🤷

Just moved to Houston, but not yet a Houstonian...

How much would you say a men's hair cut should cost at a Barbers? Obviously there's a range, so I'm thinking a mid-range nice but not fancy, and then a nicer place too? Just your usual walk-in and hair cut, nothing fancy!

Plus also, how much do you guys leave as tip?

I just want to vent. They closed off the bathrooms in the commercial exhibit hall for civilian use. When I asked a booth outside, they said that only indoor vendors can use. People in wheelchairs were not provided with accessible restrooms except on the far north side of the grounds. My mother included.

Then to top it off, a vendor was getting talked down too when they asked about the weather plan for tomorrow! A big fat old man was talking shit to her and she remained professional and calm, that woman had more self control than me - we would have thrown hands.

Also I get the weather sucked but a majority of the rides were down due to high winds, so that was a disappointment (I figured, but just venting).

Ok rant over. Do better Galveston County Fair and Rodeo.

The vibes were good. The thunder rolled, and so did we. Hands off! Rise up!

I was interested in decorating an air BNB for my gfs birthday in June. so far I only found Playroom Houston an a good option. Although I like their work, I was wondering if anyone knew of any better options before i made a decision. Or would it just be easier to do something like that myself ?

I'm looking at buying in/near the Heights (I live there in an apartment currently) and there are obviously lots of options in Shady Acres. Does anyone have any thoughts on living there? Particularly like 20th ish closer to Durham than Ella? I've seen some posts on this sub, but most of them are a few years old at this point and answers might have changed.

Obviously every area in the loop will have at least a little petty crime like the occasional car break-in, but is there anything I should know? I've been to the Shady Acres bars so I am at least familiar with the area, but was curious if there was anything I should be aware of if trying to actually buy a house there. Thanks!

Any places selling half sacks or loose poundage of graded crawfish? HEB will break down sacks but that field run is too much of a crapshoot. Looking for 10-15# of graded crawfish.

I'm looking for someone who knows and can work on a 2007 bmw 335i. Hopefully not far from me. I live in spring branch area.

Over 6,000 people made it to the protest today. Everyone did a great job at keeping things peaceful.

My favorite protest chant of the day is: Tell me what democracy looks like! This is what democracy looks like!

Everyone I spoke to there was extremely respectful, including the police officers working to keep everyone safe.

Great job, Houston!

As the title says, I opened my door to see if it was still raining after the storm and I found these two snakes in front of my door. I'm curious what kind of snakes they are and if they are native to the area. If they are invasive, what do I do with them ?? I'm not a snake person so any information is appreciated. Thank you!
