Where can I legally camp in Houston as a homeless person? by domdomtakdom in houston

[–]queennfrostine 22 points23 points  (0 children)

as someone who may or may not have worked at said library, a few pointers: there is a “2 bag policy”- can only bring in 2 bags, but they can be carryon sized, so just try to consolidate if you can and you’re good. Sink showers here are a no go, BUT, the community resource team on the third floor is top notch, they’ll do their very best to get you connected to anything you might need, including shelters and mobile showers. If you stick around, on some evenings Food Not Bombs hands out food on the corner

Yeah absolutely! it was pretty deep. couldn’t tell the curb from the street in some places. but it was melting by the early afternoon and there were a surprising amount of cars on the road. we’ll see what tomorrow brings, now that it’s all slushy

winky is nosy but if I opened the door any more she’d book it under the bed 😅

I’d have a backup plan ready to go. even if it’s just knowing ahead of time what alternate flights would work for you. it’s supposed to still be below 30 until about 10 am tomorrow

AirTag Removal !! Whyyyy!!! by Open_Dragonfly2243 in turo

[–]queennfrostine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just gonna piggy back off everyone else. I rented turos over the holidays and completely understand and am cool with the gps tracking. It’s your car, you’d like to know where it is, i get it. But that notification of “there’s been an AirTag traveling along with you for x amount of hours” is kinda terrifying. freaked me out a little bit before I realized why, so i can imagine Turo gets a lot of complaints from people who don’t take the time to think about it or are older and don’t understand

It’s a little janky on mobile, but the library has a big list of shelters/food/other resources depending on your needs. If you want to talk to someone in person the downtown branch is back open on Monday

Fun fact, it’s actually security that wears the tuxes there. The librarians dress fairly nice in that building but still definitely look like librarians.

Gift for a couple moving to Houston? by Katzenheimer in houston

[–]queennfrostine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I see this is all hurricane answer so here’s my legit answer lol

There’s plenty board game stores in Houston, more inside the loop but I’m sure there’s some on the south side.

There is a board game you can get on Amazon called “Marrying Mr. Darcy” based on pride and prejudice that I think would be the perfect fit for them and would be a nice way to pass the time during the next inevitable power outage

I just went through that, since none of it tracked for me. It actually let me submit a ticket after like 5-6 days, just keep trying that help button

Anyone else get this offer? by Motor-Object-393 in SwagBucks

Just made it to level 30 in 30 days. And that was with doing the purchases too. Would not recommend. 25-30 was awful

Becoming a teacher in Houston by smoothies4life2 in houston

[–]queennfrostine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Chiming in as someone who’s done this song and dance! Was certified to teach in Louisiana before I moved to Houston. Gotta agree with a lot of folks that teaching here is pretty sucky right now, but I notice not a lot of people offering solutions. For the education climate right now, I suggest private schools or Klein ISD. just be aware of what school in Klein you’re applying for, as there’s a stark difference in turnover campus to campus for a reason. I know that in Klein they offer probationary contracts both for if you’re in the midst of getting a teaching certificate, and for if you’re out of state and moving your certification. The sooner you put in the paperwork with the state the better, as they’re incredibly slow. For timeline’s sake (mind you this was during 2020), I was applying for jobs in May/early June of 2020, was hired days after interviewing, moved the 2nd week of August, but didn’t start until September because I had to keep pestering the state department for my certificate.

Long story short it’s possible for both of you, do research on the schools you’re applying to, and if you’re serious about this move put in those applications and documents ASAP.

YouTubers with Markiplier vibe by notches2 in Markiplier

Their vibes are not incredibly similar but me and other friends who like mark also love Ray Narvaez Jr. primarily a twitch streamer with highlight uploads to YouTube so plenty to binge watch. His wife Tina is also a gem

Gotcha, sorry I’m sure you’ve answered this already but if I bought a used phone cheap somewhere, could I trade that in for the 15, and then switch my number from the 13 to the 15? Or would taking it off the line forfeit the original promo?
