Algún buen lugar para cambiar la pantalla de un Google pixel 7 pro que recomienden en Brownsville???

Hi! My wife and I are in Houston and wanting to travel down to Mexico as we've never been. We're going to Progreso, but would also like to spend a couple nights Matamoros. We would be going alone, so we wouldn't have any bigger group or locals with us.

I'm trying to decide if it's safe, and if we should drive in or taxi in. We have a 10 year old kind of beat up Camry, do you think we'd be fine even with US plates? I would likely stick out as a foreigner, I'm very white. My wife could almost pass for Mexican probably, until someone spoke to her.

The last post I found people were saying it was generally safe if you weren't out too late and didn't go to the outskirts, so we'd mostly stick to the Zona Centro area and probably go back to our airbnb around 7. Thanks!

EDIT: We went and it was fine. We walked from the International Bridge all the way El Ultimo Taco and the area our bnb would've been. We regretted canceling it. Like I figured, it was just a normal city with people living life. Hundreds of NEW Texas plate cars going in and out, and even some entering at night as we walked back across the bridge through customs. Like I suspected, the DON'T GO comments seem to be purely xenophobia, and a lot I suspect have never been.

Any recommendations? Never boxed in my life and I wanna exercise but in an activity not necessarily just going to the gym

I'll be there to visit guy been trying to day four hrs. He moved down there in March. I've been there four times this will be the fifth. I'll be there January 8th- tell least the 20th. I need to know fun things to do during the day. I'm doing a special night also and need an amazing restaurant. $$$ is no problem I want to dress up have a drink with some amazing food. Let me know thanks-

Hello I have a 2009 jeep liberty 4x4 that I need help changing the spark plugs. I called the shops around here and they are charing $300+ and I can't afford that right now. If anyone can help me out I can provide the spark plugs and pay you $50.

Just curious on where people like to go out here? I’ve noticed the night life scene is starting to get a little bit bigger so i wanted to hear from y’all.

Hey I’ve got a Mazda Miata that’s got some transmission issues, does anyone know reliable mechanics in the area?

Hello,

Any local ,close to Brownsville/Harlingen, aviation schools or instructors?

I did some research online but looks like all the ones in Brownsville and Harlingen do not exist anymore or no longer have training.

Looking to either host a game or play in a game. I have ran Pathfinder and several versions of Star Wars D20 and I would be glad to GM a game in those. I am going to be posting some flyers in a few game stores around Brownsville and Harlingen as well.

I figure I can break this down in two parts. If I am GMing or if I am playing. Ideally I would like to be in a group where rotating GMs from time to time is an option. I am a dude in my mid 40s who leans left and would want to be in a group or GM for a group that is LGBTQ friendly. Though other than not tolerating bigots, I am pretty easy going.

GMing

• Systems I have ran: Pathfinder 1e, Star Wars Sage Edition
• Game would be in Harlingen
• Once a week or once every other week would be the goal.
• Sadly I am not Brennan Lee Mulligan
• Systems I have but never played/GMed: Pathfinder 2e, D&D 5e
• I like to run a mix of combat, character interactions, political intrigue and keep a general mix of a dynamic world.
• I always run a session zero to get the players all on the same page as well as ensure the setting is to their liking
• I have a setting ready for Pathfinder
• I want to ensure all players and myself are having fun in the game.
• Easy going with revamping characters. If you aren't having fun with a character, we can redo stats, class and more. Because if you aren't having fun, then the game is failing on some level.

Playing

• Typically looking for a game that is open world, but not required
• I can drive to any near by area around Harlingen.
• Ideal rate would be once a week or once every other week.
• A mix of combat, social interactions and/or intrigue.
• I have played all sorts of classes and I usually can find fun in any character.

Please ask away if you have any questions!

so i called and left a message asking about a spot at the farmers market near the zoo 5 days ago. haven’t heard back yet. is there a proper way to apply?

Hi Brownsville! I'm looking for recommendations for a good Zumba class. I'm looking specifically for a beginners class, mornings preferred. Also, if there are any other type of dance fitness classes I'd love to know! Thank you!

I have a Mazda that needs work. I am not sure what’s wrong with it. Is the Mazda dealership reputable? I am in Brownsville. I am thinking it is possibly the transmission.

Anything fun broke college students can do?

I want to get more into pickleball. Are there any existing teams I can join? Or is anyone looking to form a team?

Just got back from working up in Minnesota for a year and holy fuck what happened to international? I can’t imagine what it’s like during the week from all the semis coming from los tomates bridge going toward the port. Absolute chaos! Before I left to Minnesota there was no construction and both lanes were up to the gills in traffic.
