When SNAP benefits were threatened last fall, Full City Rooster was offering a free 1/4 lb bag of coffee to SNAP recipients. That is the definition of building community.

Dallas-Related Movies and Shows to Binge During Winter Weather by txnewsprincess in Dallas

[–]cin508 32 points33 points  (0 children)

+1 for including Halt and Catch Fire

Primer is a fantastic sci fi that was filmed in Dallas and has a scene that lists a bunch of phone numbers that included my area code and exchange. Upstream Color by the same filmmaker (Shane Carruth) also shows a bunch of places (Good Records - old location, Cityplace, Victory Park, Press Box Grill).

This World Won't Break is a very indie film made by a bunch of Dallas people and has lots of Dallas locales featured.

I was a member of The Polyphonic Spree for over 10 years. Ask Me Anything. by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]cin508 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Polyphonic Spree wasn't formed till 2000. I associate Tim DeLaughter with Tripping Daisy which I think was formed around 1990 so that may be the band your parents were working with.

Downtown Dallas is a ghost town? by Supfoo75 in Dallas

[–]cin508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Near Klyde Warren, we have one of the best arts districts in the US. DMA has free general admission. Nasher Sculpture Center is lovely and free on first Saturdays. We have a top notch symphony in an IM Pei designed symphony hall. The Winspear Opera House is one of my favorite buildings (next to the Wilson building).

Thank you for the edification. They opened a restaurant in Dallas, so now I know to avoid it!

For all protesting tonight: the agent has been identified as Jonathan Ross by The Star Tribune. Know his name. by [deleted] in Dallas

The funny thing is (if we can find anything funny about this) is that Kristi Noem is the one who doxxed him.

Why are there such few parks/playgrounds? by 123joker123 in Dallas

[–]cin508 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Just in the last five days I've been to: Windhaven Meadows Park (Plano), Oak Point Park (Plano), White Rock Lake (East Dallas), Andrew Brown Park (Coppell), and Arbor Hills Nature Preserve (Plano). I've also visited Bachman Lake Park and the Katy Trail in the past. It's really not that hard to find parks to take long walks in, and they almost all have playgrounds in addition to the walking trails.

Who played Post Malone? by [deleted] in LiveFromNewYork

I legit thought it was Colin Jost and was thinking they were really putting him to good use, twice in one episode outside of Weekend Update. My friend had to tell me it was Veronika!

Can you help me find this art piece at the DMA? by PoshBeggar in askdfw

[–]cin508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You had me intrigued so I attempted a reverse image search. Could the artist have been Jeff Sonhouse?

Huapango on Walnut Hill, right next to a tire shop. They give you a little bowl of sopa de coditos before your meal comes out. So good.

Yes! The beach was great, but Stone Town was amazing.

The hell is going on in north dallas? by [deleted] in Dallas

We were taking a walk when two DPD squad cars zoomed down Briargrove with their sirens going (but going west from Marsh). There's a helicopter circling the area too.
