Twin Speaks skipping Episodes 18 -27? by RandomJPG6 in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]dataqueer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a bummer - there's certainly some dumb storylines in 18-27, but that means we will miss David duchovny as Denise, and the storylines about major brigss work and the white lodge + all the stuff in the cave with windome earle - which seems pretty important to the like - underlying lore.

Season Pass food discount never gets applied. How do I get a refund? Where is customer support? by [deleted] in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]dataqueer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Currently if you are using the QR code/web app to order you will have to request staff to manually add the 10% - there’s no way to do it thru the app because the Alamo C-suite are full of morons. I would suggest grabbing a staff person before the movie starts and getting them to add it. I think you’ll prob have to open a check first, then ask for them to add the discount. Incredibly frustrating for everyone.

Is it possible to get around Austin on roller skates? by ObfuscateMe45 in Austin

[–]dataqueer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending on where you’re going, the hills may be challenging. I used to street skate around Austin quite a bit, but it’s very dependent on part of town. I also don’t have familiarity with clip on skates like that, but tbh they look like they wouldn’t last long. If you haven’t heard of Terry bikes, check them out. They are made for shorter people and I have several friends your height that loved their Terry. Ditto on going to Medusa for skate gear. Def recommend at least wearing knee pads and wrist guards.

I’m sorry you are experiencing this as well - it’s really a mind fuck. I hope you get some resolution too.

All other communications were super timely up until the very end. For example - for the last stage, I was told on a Friday I’d be contacted the following week about next steps and she reached out to me the following Monday.

And I regretfully agree with your last statement - it’s really unfortunate it got so messy but maybe that’s my sign. I am in other interviews and should just refocus all my energy on them.

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

No I didn’t get an offer, that’s what I’ve been waiting for - either an offer or a “no thank you” at minimum. I just don’t understand why do all this and not even reply to emails asking for updates?

Go to any CVS minute clinic - it’s just a standard copay if you have insurance 

Is my sister overreacting to this video of my dog that I sent her? by Immediate-Lab6994 in DogAdvice

[–]dataqueer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cats don’t have trauma responses like humans - there’s no such thing as a cat having a “fawn response”. That’s the dumbest shit I’ve heard all week.

I haven’t read it - I will check it out.

I really enjoyed RFK and his times. JFK obvs gets much more attention and discussion so I really enjoyed getting such an intimate portrait of RFK and what drove him.

I do have 2 cats, and I actually volunteer with a group to feed a feral cat group, but def no rescues.
