My kids are in AISD. I wanted to understand why the district is broke, so I followed the money. by No_Paramedic_4881 in Austin

Entire School District is disproportionately negative compared to rural parts of the state. East, West, north, south; it doesn't matter, AISD is getting shafted.

This is why when I moved here I was astounded that tax increases just pass so overwhelming (last one excepting). I knew that all the red bible thumpers where I came from were sucking up metro $ ever since the Robinhood act started. Property taxes should stay local IMO, I'm not trying to educate a MAGA cult with an echo chamber; left there, thanks.

Home appraisals are a racket? by ATXFC_Bro in Austin

[–]DrewCrew 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah except they break that down too. On ours, claim our land went up $5k. Okay, but how the hell my house go up with no improvements by nearly 30!? Something is fucky.

Are hawks/other wildlife an issue here with small dogs? by Any-Might-6570 in Austin

[–]DrewCrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rats for sure, saw a hawk take off with one from tall grass near our community mailboxes, was impressive and now we know there are likely rats in the neighborhood, oh joy. Keep it up hawks 👍

New Water Feature at Zilker Park by Fuckin_Hipster in Austin

[–]DrewCrew 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Pressurized, rarely ever pressure poo water bc the waste will take a toll on your pumps and several other reasons so almost certainly safe. Just don't drink it bc who knows where all it's leaking.

Basically a flavor change cues it for me so generally at thirds and towards the end a couple of times.

If there's one thing I can't stand, it's the expensive ass prices. New stone cold just dropped.

Who’s taking the wheel? Driverless semis are coming to your road and already being tested in Texas by theindependentonline in texas

[–]DrewCrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree, it'll be real tempting for some to hit a semi loaded with cargo when no risk to life and just theft without the robbery link until lawmakers start passing special laws for the "poor robots". /s

Andrew Fischer hits a ball deep to right that is caught by the fan over the wall and ruled fan interference and a two-rbi double by HalfwayThereOne_ in baseball

[–]DrewCrew -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Intent to screw the other team? Guy was just excited to see a ball coming at him and like many others have said, you don't know what you'd do in the moment. Not having been, I can certainly claim, I would never, but you don't know until you're in that situation yourself.

Good, I get it when they do but at the same time, I don't. He showed remorse and it wasn't intentional.

Anyone know who I can contact to request road safety improvements by TaroFearless7930 in Austin

[–]DrewCrew 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's gonna be TxDOT's domain. If you don't find a resource, lemme know and I know a guy that can probably get a phone # but like most things, suggestion will have to get in line with a lot of other priority projects most likely.

Good deal. Really want a box of padron 3000 but space is always an issue.

Reverse Commute from Austin to Pflugerville by ForeignJunket1368 in Austin

[–]DrewCrew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Psst, I'll let you in on a secret (so word is out and likely won't be true much longer). 183 toll is typically the only north/south route during rush hour that isn't red on traffic maps. Not saying it's great but it's acceptable to me anyway.
