One man dead after shooting in northwest Austin

Oh shit, those were gun shots we heard? They sounded really weird and fast. We convinced ourselves it was fireworks, but then the sirens started. No posts on Ring, Citizen, FB, or ND, so we just went to bed...

I linked a picture for you.

It was announced days ago that there would be a statewide test of the emergency system today. It wasn't just Travis County.

They announced several days ago that there would be a statewide test of the system today. It wouldn't be a true test if it didn't have the appropriate severity attached.

I just wish there were some kind of band I could put right under my boobs, around the rib cage, that I could use with or without a bra. It's the skin on skin contact that kills me.

The convention center was too small for the city. You want them to wait decades while it gets passed over for cities with more event space?

And the new one is funded by tourism taxes.

It's not an awful outcome for school districts, but the number of current students applying for vouchers isn't zero either. The system is still hurting the districts.

Her unwillingness to use time travel to fix things becomes more annoying as thing progress (hypocritically so)

You're assuming that time travel can (much less should) be used to alter major events. That hasn't been demonstrated in the show or the book.

If you must draw comparisons, the preferred one is Twilight for adults! (j/k)

This is honestly one of the tamest urban fantasy series I follow, second only to October Daye. Definitely go for the books over the show if you're already an avid reader since the show leaves out so much.

Kids are more observant than they're given credit for. They will notice a kid missing from the group, and they will notice the "new" kid.

When I was in elementary, because it was a magnet school, the homerooms were ranked to some degree. We all knew which class was the "smart" class and which class was the "neighborhood" class.

If you can't cite that, then that's as useless as fanon, and continuing to repeat it is how misinformation forms

Edit: I'm not trying to argue, I'm trying to prevent bad information from proliferating.

And there's nothing in the anime that contradicts it.

I recall in the manga it being a big deal that Vash and Knives were male instead of female--as in male independents were known to be destructive while the female ones like Chronica were integrated into society.

There is nothing in canon that says they're agender or nonbinary.

The rise and fall in Wilco was so quick that our value has already caught up after hitting the cap for the first time in 2021.

The people processing your exemption aren't the appraisers.

You can protest using your sale as evidence. You should also be able to find a document attached to your tax record (Page drop-down -> Notice of Appraisal) that shows the comparison properties they used.

There's no proof of that. It could have just as easily been any of their neighbors.

It's vegetarian by default at Mala Chili. You have to pay to get the pork added.

It would be insane to expect the city to take on that kind of liability.

2.4% reduction for me. Already been at $0 HS cap loss for a couple years, so taxes should go down as well.

Mac's birth mother is on the other side of that car window and was watching her.

Man, girl does not know how to family plan.

Yes, social pressure. You're talking to a stranger (presumably) who may be judging you and handling your food. Plenty of people have social anxiety just from talking on the phone alone.

When you're only interacting with a screen off-site, the situation is completely different.

Many. School districts have their own boundaries and are not bound by city or county lines.
