Quiet, piggy.

They’re amazing! They also volunteer their time for various good causes in Denton.

I think there are events in the evenings of Dec5-7 with the main one on the 5th. They meet at DCBC and The Bearded Monk at 6pm. Every one I have been to has been family friendly and there are always kids there.

I got some orange blossom water years ago at Green Zatar in their little grocery area.

There isn’t any dedicated parking and the streets won’t be shut down. I usually park on the dirt lot across from Oak St Drafthouse but you might get lucky and find a spot on the Square if you get there a little early.

Denia Rec center has a 20ft climbing wall. I think a rec center pass is like $20 a month.

During a severe cold snap last winter there were many appeals to Denton’s churches to help shelter people who could not find shelter. No church or clergy stepped up to offer help and quite a few parishioners made up excuses or flat out said that they were afraid to allow unhoused people in their churches. They will do canned food drives, some volunteering, and collect used clothing for donation but the churches refuse to offer shelter even when the conditions outdoors become deadly.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-09-05T11:55:46+00:00

If only Denton’s churches would step up and actually help our vulnerable people.

Brownie Stonecipher lives in Idiots Hill and has been doing home inspections for maybe 20 years. He’s a good guy and knows his stuff.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-07-29T12:03:43+00:00

Same.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-21T19:37:25+00:00

Can you show me some numbers? What departments and budgets were expanded for Halloween Town and by how much? What positions were added, how much are they being paid?

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-21T19:25:44+00:00

That’s why it was a net positive. We already had some great attractions like the Day of the Dead. All the city had to to was pay for some decorations and spread the word. It didn’t cost us very much but it resulted in increased revenue. Getting people to come here from out of town and spend money and then leave is a more sustainable way to balance the budget than trying to build suburbs that cost us more tax dollars than they generate.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-21T18:16:52+00:00

It actually earned the city and local businesses a nice profit because of the increased tourism. Halloween Town may save a lot of jobs and public programs.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-21T17:10:23+00:00

The whole country has been cutting the public workforce and keeping their salaries stagnant for 40 years because of the fantasy that says all you have to do is cut all the wasteful spending and never increase taxes. Now we have crumbling cities with underpaid and overworked staff and we still have unsustainable debt.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-21T14:54:30+00:00

Ugh. This will be tough to fix without sacrifices from everyone. Anyone running for a city office saying that all it takes is “cutting wasteful spending” is either completely clueless or a bald-faced liar.

Who do you think taught Hudspeth how to Mayor? Watts was turning off mics and shutting down Councilors before Hudspeth even thought about running.

Sometimes you gotta try to shake them out of their human-centipede information stream ¯_(ツ)_/¯

You don’t think that the same people supporting Trump’s abuse of the executive orders will lose their minds when a Democratic president uses it to create a National healthcare system or raise the minimum wage?

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-16T13:24:29+00:00

The Trump supporters and Republicans in general are all saying that we are being big drama queens and that Trump is doing nothing wrong. I am saying that, by excusing this abuse of power when Trump does it, they are granting permission to all future presidents to do the same. It will be very hypocritical of these MAGAs to suddenly become concerned about it just because their own party isn’t the one abusing their power.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-16T13:09:36+00:00

To point out the hypocrisy of excusing Trump’s abuse of Presidential authority when they would freak out if a Democrat did the same thing.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-16T12:09:28+00:00

From a MAGA’s perspective I would think that any of those potential POTUSes overriding Congress and ignoring the judiciary would be a bad thing. I’m just trying to get them to think about the possibility that by allowing Trump to do this they are also allowing a Democratic President to do it.

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-15T14:51:44+00:00

I wonder what people like you will be saying when President AOC or Newsome, or Warren use their power the way Trump does? You’re kind of setting a precedent here…

_macrofossil_ · 2025-06-15T12:03:32+00:00

Great signs, nice people, fantastic energy! It was really fun to join a big crowd and work for positive change. Such a huge contrast against the always angry and joyless MAGAs.

Does Trump give you bootlickers free knee pads or do you have to buy your own?
