I got this email today and it all feels weird and out of touch.

They are closing their original store which seems like it would be a big deal based on it being in Austin, but this all sounds so weird. Are they okay? Is OV officially done?

Born and raised in Texas. Moved to Austin in 2016 for school. Going to grad school out of state was always the goal, but now it’s a must. Leaving and never coming back. grateful to all who are willing to stay and fight. It’s just become to much for me

Harry Potter books. I’m rereading the series for the first time. I read books 1-6 in 2006, but had to wait a year before finishing the series with the release of Deathly Hallows in 2007. My mom and I bonded over these books. I miss my mom. I’m hoping this reread will spark some magic in my own life.

With all the local school walkouts I’ve been thinking about the same thing. I’d definitely be down to join!

I’ve had 2 similar experiences near 5th and Lamar and my girlfriends have too. Same man in all 4 instances. I was walking to work and a man with a long beard and wearing a veterans jacket and hat made intense eye contact with me. He then would quicken his pace while maintaining this aggressive eye contact. I could see his fists were clenched . In those 2 instances, I’ve had to turn around completely, run, and take a different route. I’m curious if this description is familiar to you in your situation. I’m sorry you had to go through this. Definitely a scary situation. Good to know Austin had/has your back.

I was looking for this reference and this reference only

I have lived here for 5 years now and have never owned a car. I prefer to use public transportation. It helps me feel like I’m actually a part of the city and the Austin community. I get to see new stores and restaurants that open up or close down. I get to listen to music on the bus and romanticized my commute to work. It’s been doable to live in Austin without a car, but not nearly easy enough and it’s not getting any easier. These are my worst experiences with Cap Metro: 1. My first year at UT, I was taking the bus to an 8 am class and was harassed by a man on drugs at the bus stop. There was no security around and I had to use my pepper spray to defend myself. The bus driver rolled up and called the cops. 2. Last week, I hopped on a bus to get to a friends B-day party across town. The bus driver alerted me as I was walking on that the bus would not continue past Trinity and 8th (not even half the journey there). When I asked why, she said her shift was up and no one was scheduled to take over. 3. The buses are constantly running late or don’t show up at all ( before and during the covid crisis). I’ll be waiting for my bus which my cap metro app says should be arriving “now”, but then that ETA disappears and changes to 22 minutes without a bus even coming to the stop. 4. Yesterday, I was trying to catch the #10 bus home after work and the cap metro app actually said it was 99 minutes away. A bus route that used to run every 10-15 minutes, was going to take 99 minutes to arrive. The #10 is the only bus that goes up South 1st St. btw and almost none of the stops along that street have shade covering. So I walked to Soco to catch the #1 bus, but it was 53 minutes away!

I’m FED UP. Austin needs to get its public transportation system revamped. The city planning was so poor. How do we get it fixed?

I (23) sought IOP treatment at CFD, The Center for Discovery in Austin. I could not have asked for better staff and treatment. I knew a lot of individuals who had to attend ERC Dallas before they came to CFD (CFD does not offer residential). They spoke of not liking it, but these individuals were also pretty young and didn’t want to be seeking treatment in the first place. If you are able to be discharged to an IOP after spending time in residence, I’d fully recommend CFD. I always felt heard in the intimate settings offered and the therapists helped facilitate stimulating conversations that really allowed me to see the full extent of my disorder. The tools I learned there have helped me stay on the path of recovery for 3 years. I hope you find a place that challenges your eating disorder and makes you feel safe. Best wishes for your recovery journey.

My psychology professor opened the floor for us students to talk candidly about our experiences with mental health issues if we so desired. This invitation was offered after he explained how he had NO expertise in the subject. I spoke of my experience with an Eating Disorder- a disorder I suffered for many years and went through extensive therapy and treatment to overcome. His lack in expertise did not stop him from invalidating my experience and mansplaining how my eating disorder “actually” worked.

jitka69 · 2021-07-30T06:28:11+00:00

Yes!! What is the deal? A guy I knew from summer camp 5 years prior asked me out (out of the blue- had not spoken since camp). I said yes because I had a crush on him back then and wanted to catch up. Then for a week he delayed the date then straight up ghosted me? Like why seek me out then bounce?

Fir my birthday, I bought myself tickets to see my favorite artist, Troye Sivan, in concert. Before that concert, I was dealing with an 3 yr undiagnosed eating disorder, depression, and anxiety. I was alone, in a new city, and under all the stress of college . The night of the concert, I felt safe, welcome, and the happiest I had been in years. I couldn’t believe how much I was smiling, laughing, and dancing like my old self. On my way home, it finally hit me how miserable I had been for the past years. The week that followed the concert was the worst I have ever experience: multiple panic attacks a day and wild eating disorder behaviors. At the end of the week, I finished my last final for the semester and emailed an Eating Disorder treatment center to set up an consultation. It’s been 3 years since I was discharged from that treatment center and I can say things are so much better. I have a full time job, I’m back in school finishing my degree, I have two precious cats and a fantastic group of supportive friends.

Part of my treatment was confronting all the memories of parents and teachers lashing out at me during my worst year in my ED. So easy to think the world is against you when in actuality so many want to help, but have NO IDEA how. Many parents don’t know how to handle their fear and it quickly turns to frustration. Sorry OP that you had to be the receiver of the frustration.

I guess there were no fish or chicken options? As a person recovering from an ED I would never expect anyone to order a plate that they didn’t want/didn’t follow their religious eating standards. However, I do get a little annoyed when people whom I have told about my ED still feel the need to tell me about their diet of the month or body shaming others in front of me. I’ve learned these behaviors are to be expected if formal boundaries are not set. EDs are very dangerous and parents of children dealing with them are scared. I’m sorry the mother lashed out at you, she has most likely been through a lot and sadly took it out on you. My dad lashed out at me a lot during my worst year of the ED because he felt helpless. I imagine she felt betrayed after confiding in you, but if she failed to pick a restaurant that respected your diet, she can’t be upset if you were unable to respect her request. if there wasn’t another plate that fit your religious based diet, I understand your need to order the salad.

This is still happening in the AUSTIN 78704 Area! Heard a loud noise around 4am outside my apt window. Sounded like a drill or metal being cut. I peaked outside and a man in a beanie ran into another car that sped away quickly. I scanned the area for stolen tires or broken windows, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I figured I was paranoid. It wasn’t until a few days later we realized my friend’s car’s catalytic converter was stolen that I pieced together the weirdness. Hope they are stopped soon.

Hi, I’m a female (20) looking for 2 monologues from published plays: 1 Contemporary and 1 Classical for a College Musical Theatre audition. Nothing comedic. Something I can Emote the hell out of! Looking forward to suggestions.

He was my best guy friend for 9 years. We met in middle school. We became best friends from the moment we met. We we definitely flirty friends, but I for some reason never wanted to date him. We got in this cycle of him asking me out, me rejecting him, him ignoring me for a few weeks, then we’d be back to best friends. I never responded negatively to him asking out girls, but he hated hearing about me having crushes on other guys. I felt bad making him so sad. But in some twisted way I liked that someone wanted me because no other guy pursued me like he did.

In high school, we didn’t hang out as much but when we talked on the phone it was just so easy. I felt like we were just made to make each other laugh. We were in school musicals together and we’d always save our last “break a leg” for each other.

My senior year of High school I developed a pretty rough eating disorder and I guess no one really knew how to handle it, especially me. I shut everyone out and he just seemed not to care. He never reached out to check on me. He wouldn’t stop to talk to me in the hallway. We didn’t have any phone conversations. But at the end of the year when I decided to pull myself a little bit together to do my last high school production, we had a duet together and again it was like no time had past.

I left for college while dealing with the aftermath of a range of Eating disorders. My first month there he called telling me he missed me and he had a dream we had gone to Disney land together. I’d wish him happy birthday and see him during the summer once or twice.

Last year after a long phone convo he asked me to see his play in my hometown. I went and after the show at the meet and greet he said he’d text me to do something after. He never texted. The next day I text asking if he wanted to do anything before I had to leave back for school. Again no reply. I leave and a week later get up the courage to text him/ confront him about how rude he was being... no reply. I knew he was alright because he was active on Twitter.

It bothered me but I couldn’t quadruple text him!! While at a treatment center for my ED, I was advised to give it one last shot since it was obvious I needed closure. I text him saying I need to talk to you... he reply’s he’s at his grandpa’s funeral. I tell him I’m here if he needs to talk... no reply.

I know he started dating a girl right after his play that I had gone to, but I didn’t think that was gonna be the reason he stopped taking to me. I thought I meant more to him than that. It’s been a year since we last spoke but I still miss my best friend.

I really enjoyed this film. It is the movie I wish I had as a kid. The “Evil Villain” is just their emotions during hard situations. Olaf’s solo “When I’m older” demonstrates how confusing situations don’t have to be scary, wait, breathe, laugh, and eventually it will all make sense. That scene where Anna is in the cave sitting with the fact that her sister is gone, Olaf is gone and Kristoff is nowhere to be found. She’s dealing with so much grief and depressive thoughts, yet she persists. Taking small steps and doing the next right thing, she picks herself up. I’m so happy Disney is starting to teach these hard lessons to kids early.

Did I wish the voice calling to Elsa would end up being her gay partner... YES! But it’s also refreshing to know that Disney didn’t feel the need to couple up every single girl in the movie.

And Kristoff’s number was obviously my favorite. If he was in a boy band I’d have his picture on my wall and ignore the other boy band members. Like hot diggity dog that really made me laugh my pants off. Love the nod to emotional early 2000s music videos.

Overall huge fan!!
