I don't really care for American disco or Jazz funk. I'm mostly looking for a place that plays stuff like Anri or Junko. Any help would be appreciated. I'm local so I know of a good number of venues, clubs and bars. I'm just trying to find a new scene that plays to that taste.
As the title says. We’re under 21 so no bars.
coming from chicago taking a couple day trip to houston and was wondering if anyone can tell me some better higher end reggaeton clubs? ive went through reddit looking for latin spots but have not really seen any. if you are familiar with chicago nightlife i would always go to river north or fulton market. any help would be appreciated.
Hey Y’all I thought i’d share a photo I took Sunday. I was returning from Branson and passed through Houston to get home. Apologies if this isn’t the correct place to post.
any GOOD RECOMMENDATIONS for behavioral therapy and compulsive behaviors therapy? I've talked to five this year and so far I'm still not receiving the treatment I need.
My sister fell in love with a light up gingerbread house decoration that had sprinkles on the roof. I convinced her to walk around and think about it before buying and we ended up leaving without it. I am wondering if anyone knows the vendor or where I can find this item. I think they were the only ones selling light up gingerbread house decor. Any help is welcome and appreciated!!
Recently ive found myself in a not so great situation, and I need to start taking the bus. Only problem is, I dont know how at all. Say I want to get to stop 30 and the closest stop to me is stop 20, and I need to get to stop 30 at X time. What exactly does that process look like? Do I just show up at stop 20 at the scheduled time and eventually the bus will get to stop 30? If so, how do I know at which specific time the bus will get to stop 30?
Photo of fellow Houstonian Shelley Duvall behind the scenes of her first movie, Brewster McCloud (1970), filmed in Houston. Does anyone know where this photo with the statue was specifically taken? Hermann Park? The zoo?
Just wanted to know why the Sienna HEB is always out of stock in lots of staple produce and if they do have stock a lot of the times it is poor quality and not fresh. Like mold growing all over the bell peppers. Is this happening to many different HEBs and other grocery stores? Am I just shopping at the wrong location? Can’t tell. Thanks.
What jokes make you laugh every time you hear them?
I’m trying to spice up marriage any activities that you can recommend in houston
Long story short USMC vet thats been out for a little over a year. Having trouble finding a job I really enjoy and want to make a career out of. Current jobs got me working 12+ hour days on a $825 a week salary which just isn’t making sense anymore. Anyone got any ideas of where to look or any companies that hire vets? Got 4 years management experience, and some sales. Thanks yall!
I'm planning a romantic Christmas getaway and considering Houston as a potential destination (I live in New Jersey). I don’t know much about the city, so I was wondering: what Christmas-themed events or attractions is Houston known for, and what are some standout restaurants that would make for a memorable experience? I'm also weighing other options like Dallas and Austin, so if anyone has insights or comparisons between these cities for a festive and romantic trip, I'd love to hear them
Hey all,
We have applied to St John's school for admission to first grade for our daughter. There is a group testing scheduled for next week for 2 hours. We are a "standard" applicant (no legacy/siblings), so appreciate any advice from parents who have gone through this process. Thank you!
Hey Houston,
Never had the chance to go to you.
I want to make a gift of a gift card for a local Houston Coffee shop. This is a work gift, and not really appropriate for me to ask them what part of Houston they live in.
What would be a good call that isn't Starbucks? Perhaps a coffee shop that has a few different locations?
Also, I'd be sending it online, so would have to be that possibility.
Thanks in advance.
Just received a Citizen alert about 12 mins ago regarding a body recovery operation in Buffalo Bayou. Marine rescue units and HPD are on the scene now.
This is eerily similar to an incident. I posted about ~6 months ago, where two bodies were recovered in the exact same spot (down from the 3-sided wedge formed by Louisiana/Smith/Congress). I can see the operation unfolding in real time from my balcony.
Sun dogs are created by light from the sun passing through ice crystals in the sky.
Today I see not one, not two, but FIVE cops "patrolling" the Galleria on horseback! I've also seen them Downtown and in the Memorial Area. Just walking down the sidewalk....
Is there any strategic or tactical reason for this?
Assuming no... the city is basically BROKE. The police force is understaffed. And we are paying for.... STABLES? Horse up-keep? What the hell??? I get having cops on bikes, in cars, and even on foot (occasionally) but on horses (for glamour/PR purposes only) makes ZERO sense to me in a city with serious budget issues!!!
Am I missing something?
We are tenants in an older building that has two meters, problem is the second meter isn't attached to any of the addresses for the building. I need the ESI ID to get it attached to our account, but without a usable address - all the online searches are useless.
Anyone out there work at NRG or Centerpoint who can help me out? I've called both and the wait time is so long I have to hang up.

Does anyone know a driving instructor who can offer private practice sessions on a daily basis for up to 3-4 weeks?
I ate at an incredible East African restaurant (Baobab Fare) in Detroit a few weeks ago and was curious if we had anything similar in Houston? The owners of the restaurant are originally from Burundi.
Me and my partner's ONLY day off together is mondays and all the damn restaurants are closed!!!! Dona letis, burger chan, and jupiters have all been on our list for so long but we never get to go even when we have the money. Its fucking infuriating. When i search its just a bunch of fast food and other crap. Does anyone have recs for an ACTUALLY GOOD restaurant that is open on mondays in this god forsaken town?? (Sorry for the rant, this has really been getting on my nerves lately cause we FINALLY have money for date night after YEARS of financial hardship, but everyone collectively decided to close on Mondays over the last few years)
If you go out on the weekends and walk into a club, what do YOU want to hear. Top 40 is expected but when was the last time you walked into a place and was surprised.
Fun fact: Houston has its very own club dedicated to an incredibly niche Canadian Board game called Crokinole. And, they just hosted their first tournament included in the National Crokinole Association tour (yes, it's a real thing, crazy right). This is the finals match from the tournament, if you want to learn more about the unique game that Houston has a club dedicated to check that or the club page out.
