There was a loud boom at about 7:57pm. Any idea what it Was
Does anyone know why AMC Clearfork is closed? Is this a one day thing or long term? Seems like a terrible time to be closed on Thanksgiving weekend.
38F interested in riding my bike more consistently, any female group rides in FW?? Open to other group rides too. Seems like they are all in Dallas.
Me (44m) and my wife are divorcing after 19 years together. I'm really struggling with it and am wondering if there are any groups or folks in a similar situation or have been through a similar situation to talk to.
Has anyone else seen it? I have pretty strong opinions, I would like know what others think.
Anyone know what is going on at the Garden Gates Apartments on North Beach st? There are like a dozen cop cars.
I've been admitted to Jps for 5 days now, (over dose suicide attempt) I'm getting transferred to Trinity springs pavilion tomorrow to do my week or 2 bid.. When I went to the 10th floor to get back on meds in July, I had a tech tell me we get to keep our phones? Could anyone vouch if that's now true or not? Also when I stayed for 2 weeks back when I was 18, (7 years ago) they let us take a few smoke breaks a day. Is that still the same?
I bought a used vehicle yesterday and everything was great until the financing aspect if it.
Initially when I filled out the paperwork for financing the salesman came back with a 8.6% rate for 72 months which blew my mind. I told then I have an over 800 credit score. They said my account had a red flag, and tried to show me google results to support the rate. I made a comment there was no way I was going to accept that rate. He then asked if I had my SSN card (thankfully I did) and he came back and said the finance person ran the wrong SSN before and now they were able to get a 7.1% rate with Well Fargo. Obviously this set off alarms because they would have seen names didn't match at all.
So after waiting a while and being tired and hungry because lunch has passed we get called back. They asked if I wanted to purchase and extended warranty and I specifically said no because I still have manufacturer warranty since the car I was getting is a 2023 with low miles. I then get told they now found a credit union that will give 6.8% with lower monthly payments and now we were getting a free extended warranty (at the time I thought it was goofy because it was for 2 years and 2400 miles which is less than I have on the manufacturer warranty but we said thank you anyways. Being tied and hungry we signed the paperwork and I honestly should have paid more attention.
Well I get home and last night sit and read through and see I got charges 1200 dollars for that warranty. One that is a waste of time.
This is our second car we got from here and after feeling lied to and used for 1200 bucks, I will never shop there again. Tomorrow I will be calling to cancel the warranty and make them pay the credit union it back.
I looked up online and talked to a friend who works in the industry and they said everything that happened above is a common tactic used by those who want to take advantage of customers.
Beware, who knows what else I'll come across now.
Looking for a black owned Pilates studio local to Fort Worth. If anyone has a recommendation I’d appreciate it!
Any good foot/massage places around East Fort Worth/west Arlington?
I'm going to be in town this week, but I'm confused about the bike share. When I looked at the service map, every station is listed as "Not Available" / X or 0 bikes available. Is the map broken, or is the share not available?
TIA!
Edit: thanks for the quick answers!
I know ragweed is moderate... but I am suffering
Does anyone have personal experience with the EOS off McCart? I’m looking for an affordable gym in the area and it seems too good to be true for $30 a month.
Looking to create a couple iron brands and need to find someone who is good with iron work. This is just for fun and doing it for family. Anyone know of any places in the FTW area? I would love to have them customized but beggars can’t be choosers.
In case anyone hasn’t noticed, downtown lights on these roads are timed so that if you’re going the posted 30, you hit every green the whole way down.
Deciding to go 20 for no reason causes the entire group behind you to get stuck midway though. Therefore it is rude. I know you got to get a little closer to other cars down there than usual, the density is astonishing, but I promise if you stay in the lane you won’t hit them.
Friendship is the Texas way, let’s get each other through those lights.
(Satire…but c’mon guys)
Looking for some authentic bulk tamales, anyone know of someone in Hulen area? Can go out further, I don't mind.

Anyone know why there’s a helicopter flying around in Southside? Near Seminary and Hemphill.

I’m planning to purchase a home in the next 6 months and I’m trying to create a budget but property taxes are confusing me
Are they different in each district or is the property tax rate the same across all of Tarrant county?
If it’s different by district, how on earth do I find out what the tax rate is per district?
Please help!
