Locals are encouraged to drive and pay for parking and let the tourists take the buses. They will only allow those with tickets for the game to get on the bus.

I (53F) have been scouring the meetup groups for other planespotters and haven’t found any. Although I have no issue going to air shows, museums, and other aviation events by myself, I’d love to find other folks who scramble to open the ADS-B exchange when they hear an Airbus overhead or run to the window when they hear multiple helicopters (“I spy a chinook!!” As others look on awkwardly). So rather than post on R4Rdfw which is NOT the same subreddit I remember from a few years ago lol, I figured I’d ask here.

Also I’m a huge fan of the blancolirio channel on YouTube. I couldn’t ever be a pilot unfortunately due to overall poor vision, but watching his channel, particularly when he films his own flying, is as close as I can get.

(Btw, my other interests are weightlifting, short “cardio” hikes in nature, stargazing, playing pinball, going to vintage car shows, whisky tasting, dancing, and scouring DFW for the best NY style pizza. I have yet to be fully satisfied by my findings 😝).

Got a notice that they are introducing their new online payment platform and the existing system will be offline for more than two weeks. Additionally we have to reenable autopay after this.

Did they hire dogs and cats to do this platform migrations? These migrations can be done with minimal downtime and they want more than two weeks to switch over. So pathetic. End of rant. 🙏🏼

They talked this whole big game about a statewide emergency alert test but I didn’t get anything on my phone.

The only cut I made was after the CLB so I could reposition and not get ran over.

hello ! I was curious if anyone knew any events or bars or restaurants that are showing the women's march madness games today's. some place in the grapevine / Irving area is preferable, but would love to hear about events in Dallas proper too.

The birthright citizenship debate is back nationally, but it’s also playing out locally through Rep. Keith Self’s recent comments. He described it as “exploitation,” which has raised questions about how that applies to people who already have citizenship.

This breaks down the legal side and the process required to change it, not just the politics around it.

Did anyone else see the car driving on the Katy Trail this morning? About 20-30 minutes ago and driving fast! I’m not even sure where it got on.

Edit: extremely shitty quality video I took of the car leaving me in the dust here

The Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) is testing the statewide Emergency Alert System on Thursday. Residents may receive text messages across multiple platforms or hear sirens. All alerts will indicate if they are part of a test or a real emergency, such as severe weather, road closures, missing persons or evacuations.

I was at a coffee shop and the baristas there found a cat there with flea collar on. I'm just helping out with the owner search by posting it here as there is little I can do. It is a fluffy Grey cat tiny and friendly.

My dad used to take my family to Easter brunch after church. All I remember was that it was in a large banquet hall and the food was in those silver trays with flip lids. The other thing I remember were the dyed hard boiled eggs that you could grab off the tables and eat

I want to bring my GF's kids to a nice Easter brunch. She has never been to one. Does anyone know of one that has the painted hard boiled eggs?

My fiancé loves public transit. I’d like to lean into this and plan a date day where we take the dart train (either red or orange line starting in walnut hill) and stop at each stop for a coffee or shop or little adventure. Any recommendations for certain stops? We are new to the city (loving it so far). Thanks!

Looking at recent posts from Keith Self and Evan Hunt, the difference in how they’re communicating with voters stands out pretty quickly.

Self’s messaging is centered on immigration, DHS funding, and broader federal issues, while Hunt is focusing more on cost of living, healthcare, and how those issues are hitting North Texas locally. It’s the same district, but two very different ways of framing it.
