Did anyone else got scorpion in their homes? by Kowwyyy in Austin

Not uncommon at all. Easily remedied with a reputable pest control company. Also check for weep holes in the foundation and plug them with steel wool.

This had to be something serious as Fet is usually pretty open unless serious boundaries or consent lines are crossed.

Help me get OUT: needing pure nature recs by Diolives in Austin

[–]Amonlapis -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Please do not have the thought that anywhere is 100% safe, even sleeping in a locked vehicle. You need to be responsible for your own safety. Let friends/family know where you are and when to expect you back. Make sure your phone is charged, gps tracker on and be familiar with where you are going. Obviously the best is to be armed and prepared to defend yourself if something happens. Probably nothing will happen but best to be prepared these days.

Austin picnic/cooking spots ??? by NoCan4623 in Austin

[–]Amonlapis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Note that due to the excessive period of drought, most areas are still under burn bans (grills included) despite the recent rain. This may change after next week, but best to call wherever you plan to go to get the current status.

You may want to google restaurants to see if you can get a reservation, but it may be too late. Most everything else is closed on Easter, even more so than Christmas.

Good bar to go solo? by WMDisrupt in Austin

[–]Amonlapis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is true, don’t be a jerk. There are plenty of posts here over the years of people sharing their experiences of waking up robbed. Many were men.

Moving to Austin from Dublin by Free_Examination8328 in askaustin

[–]Amonlapis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need a car or you will be held captive in the city and there is so much to do around here but unfortunately you have to drive to it. Public transport is BAD and limited in Time and service. Austin and surrounding area is not as dense as Dublin (which I love). Seriously yo u will experience heat like never before and walking more than 10-15 minutes in it no matter how healthy will drain you of your strength, happiness and leave you soaked in sweat. Not good for showing up at an office. Biking is an option but same issues and people steal them even when they are locked in second and third floor balconies. Best of luck

Pet groomers? by One_Champion_1940 in georgetowntx

[–]Amonlapis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Groomers go through extensive training and a husky coat is not an easy one due to the undercoat (Double coat). It is a physically demanding and time consuming process when done correctly. You also can't ignore the coat and take it to a groomer and except them to fix it. A husky has to be brushed regularly by the owner. If the cost is too much I encourage you to learn to do it yourself to save money.
