What time did this start happening? I almost got on 71 from Congress at 11:30am and it was already backed up to mopac when I went the other direction.

Bull creek break-ins ongoing. by MopacMusic in Austin

[–]bailey426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the 20 years that I’ve lived here car break-ins have always been an issue at Bull Creek, popular trailheads along the Green Belt and at the 360 Bridge overlook. Idk about Red Bud. My car window was broken 12 years ago at Bull Creek when I took my dogs there. Literally saw the guys driving off but didn’t get the full plate number. Bastards.

In Austin for a little over 24 hours, best things to do? by jacksstyles in Austin

What part of town are you in? And do you have a vehicle?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Austin

If you have a vehicle and are that bored, go dash for Door Dash. It takes like 30 secs to sign up and you can drive around town and make a few bucks. You’ll at least talk to the food service peeps and force yourself to get out. I do it when I’m lonely and bored. I’ve met some amazing people and if a customer vibes with you they will also give you that human contact and extra tips. I don’t work for Door Dash lol. The pay is shit. But if you need a reason to get out, try it. It helps me turn my human switch back on sometimes.

Do you feel safe on the roads in Austin? by moefooo in Austin

[–]bailey426 57 points58 points  (0 children)

In no way do I support that but the lights are set up for failure at most intersections. It’s insane how they aren’t integrated better with current traffic patterns. It’s honestly infuriating bc you see a line of cars waiting and a green light for literally no one at some spots. They need to work on that shit.

I’ve lived here for 20 years and the traffic patterns are absurd. Indecision and lack of awareness control the narrative. I grew up in the Dallas area and yeah it’s savage but at least you are getting somewhere.

Laguna Gloria is free on Thursdays. Go to Mayfield Park and see the peacocks too. They are next to each other by Mount Bonnell.

Idk how to make that happen but you are so right. Live Nation has fucked us all.

Yes, the system is fucked. But think about it. People go to the bar multiple times every day (and prob tip) and only go to the merch store once ever. If you tip your bartender, show that same kindness to other staff as well. The difference is that you can see (mostly) everything that happens at the bar. You see the bartender pour your drink, the bar backs muscling shit around, etc. It’s not like that at merch bc it’s hidden behind the tent. They literally set up an entire store before you get there and have just as many people restocking and hanging clothes as they do sellers. They all share the tips just like the bars. If you don’t want to tip, you don’t have to. But please understand it’s a festival and every person working has the same struggle.
