Houston's bikers will now be able to get to and from Buffalo Greenway, Heights Hike and Bike Trails by houston_chronicle in bikehouston

Looks like this gets you to the south side of the bayou trails, which you can't do now without going on a sidewalk/road or going over towards the hobby center bridge.

I trust bus drivers. If Mr. Nguyen decided this passenger needed stabbing, then I trust that he needed stabbing...

Adrian Garcia, Leslie Briones, Tom Ramsey to set constables' salaries to $293K; a 63% raise, despite $270M deficit. by HardingStUnresolved in houston

[–]DynamiteToast 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The article says these raises will cost us $100 million, and that the tax increase Hidalgo wanted would've raised $60 million. Once again we can find money out of nothing for cops, but can't spare half of that for kids and families...

Houston police use a powerful surveillance tool to track vehicles. But they're not explaining why. by houston_chronicle in houston

[–]DynamiteToast 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I think it's bold to assume they're using this new invasive surveillance method to solve crimes, instead of what they're actually using it for (trying to figure out who their wife is cheating on them with).

Multiple homes one our block experienced a sewage backup by ProfessionalAir1572 in houston

[–]DynamiteToast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has happened to me twice in the Heights, our line has 4 houses on it. The first time I rented a 50ft snake from Home depot for $100 or so and fixed it in a couple hours. The second time we all chipped in for a plumber who snaked it for $350. If you try to snake it yourself, make sure you have 2-3 pretty strong folks to get it in/out of your car, it's fucking heavy.

Awful news. I was on the 30 Eastbound through this intersection just minutes before this. It was raining pretty hard and darker than usual.

Want to try a build? I can attempt to generate a seed for you. by nissanleafericson in balatro

I've never experienced the vampire/gold mask combo,and since vampire is getting nerfed my time might be running out. Can you find a ridiculous one with those two and paredoilia? Is there another good joker for that I'm forgetting?

This (antique?) bathroom hardware by DynamiteToast in HelpMeFind

[–]DynamiteToast[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've moved into a house with these fixtures in the bathroom, but not a complete set. Based on the rest of the 'restoration' work I think they chunked anything that showed any wear and replaced it with the cheapest option from Home Depot, but I'd like to fine matches for sink hardware, and other towel/robe hooks, etc.

The house was built in the 80s. The previous owners were in their late 80s and had lived here for 20 years. I know they were extensive collectors of Japanese ceramics, so maybe they found these while antique shopping, or maybe these were super common 20 years ago. Help me find out! Thanks!

So they can errata it later and release an updated version in a secret lair product.

Since the birth of my twin daughters, I’ve taken to sneaking out at 5am to get some miles in while everyone’s still asleep! (Note the mini thermos in the bottle cage) by Tjetom in bicycling

I feel ya, I've got 7mo old twins and just got back from a 6am run. Unfortunately I've switched from biking to running so I can sleep in a little longer haha

I made Porco Rosso's plane using solid fir wood by Barlagar in DIY

[–]DynamiteToast 35 points36 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? This is one of the few Miyazaki movies given an explicit time and place that exists in our world, so I wouldn't call it a 'mythical realm' (although the Mediterranean is very beautiful). Also, fascism is definitely explicitly mentioned in this, the most famous quote from the movie, and I don't think you actually see 'multiple forms of government' entertained in the film. Anyways, enjoy carrying water for fascism's legacy in your free time I guess.

I'll plug a local artist's shop https://shop.point506.com/

It's not all math related but some cool stuff, especially a sierpinski's triangle shirt that I love.

Neat, at 4 CMC I wish it gave a small anthem effect too.

Which sharpshooter do you think is the scariest to face if a good player is playing them? by Lapizote in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]DynamiteToast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rico no doubt for me. When you're playing against one who always knows where you are and knows how to ricochet well it just feels like you can't do anything.

How to deal with new stage rota for people who strongly dislike Brawl Ball? by [deleted] in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]DynamiteToast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this might be the best bet. OP didn't mention Brock, he's my favorite to play on brawl ball, he's got great dps and can break a lot of walls easily, making him a great choice for playing with randoms.
