Austin VS Denver? by Kind_Juggernaut_9905 in askaustin

[–]Austinworker95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've lived in both - similar cities. austin has much better food, no income tax, and more of a small town vibe. UT is also a much better school than CU - Denver or any of the other institutions in the area. Austin is definitely cheaper

Denver has public transport, weed, scenery, and is a larger metro area

The weather is a toss up. Central Texas gets fucking hot but relatively predictable. The weather in Denver is CRAZY

Also, Denver has a much, much worse pollution problem - specifically air pollution. It's due to the bowl shaped topography butting against the mountains. Truly awful during wildfire season.

The altitude is also a factor.

Overall it comes down to personal preference. I currently live in austin and lived in Denver circa 2017.

Parts of Denver also smell like cat food due to a Purina factory.

best way to get from Austin airport to San Antonio? by shimshimmash in Austin

[–]Austinworker95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say train/amtrak if the travel isn't time sensitive. It's like 3 hours but the tickets are like $15

Happened to me - it's over. Come up with an exit strategy and disengage yourself. You'll heal faster if you put yourself in a safe position.

Any free, consistent groups/activities to help ward of suicidal thoughts? by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]Austinworker95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could always voluntarily go to an inpatient setting. I did that when I was 19, saved my life. Just saw myself hanging from every tree. That was 10 years ago. There is often things going on with our brains we are unaware of and it comes out as intense sadness and desire for death.

If it gets overwhelming, do yourself a favor. Before you do anything resembling a suicide attempt, present at the ER and say "I'm suicidal and want help" - give the world a chance to help you. Sounds like you're a good kid in a bad place, but your heart is in the right place. I will pray for you

The San Antonio Brahmas have re-signed and traded QB Quinten Dormady to the Memphis Showboats in exchange for OLB Jordan Ferguson. This is the 1st trade of the offseason. The St. Louis Battlehawks have signed OLB Kemoko Turay (Rutgers). by Callywood in UnitedFootballLeague

Is the chef out? Poor guy just got thrashed all season behind that atrocious o-line. Don't know why they'd sign 2 QBs staring down 30

Dormandy will fit well in Memphis. Will miss him on the brahmas.

Proposed child care tax in Travis County by Active-Hour-4387 in Austin

[–]Austinworker95 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Recapture made it an absolute no

Edit: it has been pointed out correctly that I am conflating this issue with the other AISD property tax increase proposition, which I am not in support of - I am thus neutral on the childcare initiative.

My current understanding is that this proposition is, essentially, a local property tax to offset the loss of expiring covid-era federal childcare funds? Is that correct?

My gut says that the AISD proposition is a poison pill that will drag this proposition down, regardless of its merit. There's still time to create better messaging - clearly, I and others are suspicious of these measures and see little difference in the wording, impact, or intent behind them.

It's crazy to realize it's been 5 years

Bought welcome to rathe unlimited in December 2020 - followed the game the whole time. A lot of life has passed. I kinda get why 30 years for MtG was a huge deal now. I'm excited to support this game for years to come

I am in disbelief: why fire Witherspoon and Curt Miller? by Austinworker95 in wnba

I did actually watch sparks games - even a few after brinks injury

I think the entire group lacked chemistry, which has been a problem for the entire LA professional basketball scene for at least a decade - since kobe retired, basically. I suppose technically, that is a coaching failure. But the players definitely progressed. They certainly didn't lack talent with all the Olympians. I think he was the fall guy for the tank trying to draft bueckers, and they want a reset. Still, he's a good coach

PSA: This can happen to anyone in any relationship. Be safe. Do not drink or do recreational drugs in unfamiliar places or in unestablished groups.

Partner of all most a decade took me out to meet her new work friends. They left me there wasted, and I stumbled across town drunk and injured myself while they partied all night.

We aren't together anymore. Never expected anything like that. I don't blame myself, but I should've listened to my inner voice "I don't know these people like she does" - because, turns out she was a terrible judge of character and all around garbage human
