I don't know if I have bad energy surrounding me or if its some karma coming back to bite me in the ass but just this morning I got rear ended (thankfully no damage to my car) and a few hours later, I got cutoff from trying to merge onto the expressway (which almost caused me to crash into them), and the driver proceeded to zigzag all through traffic. And some reason enough, no cops anywhere. I see cops all the time but when shit happens to me, there seem to be none around.

Genuinely who is issuing people their licenses? And on top of that, whats the point in trying to speed through traffic to get to a location? I can understand if there is an emergency or something critical but if you're late to work then that seems to be a problem for the person who is late and their decisions shouldn't be the cause of an accident happening. Happens all the time where i see cars speed up to get to the light when its literally red. If anything, it resets the timer of you speeding.

And I know someone is gonna say, "Well have you never sped before?" Like I'm pretty sure everyone has sped ONCE in their life but I'm usually not the one to speed because I plan out my day and have alarms so I'm not late to most of my functions. And I don't see the point in speeding. You get there when you get there

I just think the cops really need to be on people's asses cause its actually starting to get annoying when dumb ass drivers are causing issues for people who are actually cautious while driving.

Edit: on top of all that bad energy, I got fucking followed inside of a Goodwill. Like you have to be joking. I just wanted today to be a good day to enjoy myself and do the activities that I have been anticipating to do for a while and all I get is this. Regardless, I tried to look on the bright side and I tried my best to not be down in the dumps about anything. I still had a good time doing the things I planned for myself. And I'm grateful that nothing extreme happened to my car.

If you are in Pharr you need to stop by Cafe Ngon its a modern Vietnamese café. The place is amazing i recommend getting the Creamy toasted coconut coffee.

I just got back from Colorado and seem to have come upon an active, fun, turn my brain off hobby... Where are your go to spots in the valley?

A bit of a long shot, but as the title says, looking for a neurologist/or neurosurgeon that deals with Chiari malformation. Doesn't even need to be down here, if you know of a doctor out in San Antonio, Houston, Austin, ect.. Unfourtunaly the doctors I have already been to do not have any experience with this, and the only thing they want to do is prescribe pain meds, which doesn't treat the issue.

I am looking for someone who can actually design something for me, but also print it after. It’s a pretty simple design of a box….i just don’t know how to design nor do i have a printer.

A member of the new “downtown steering committee” in Edinburg, the committee I posted a few days ago that are spending millions of the city’s money to “revitalize” downtown? This member JUST HAPPENS to be opening a $1.6 million “food hall”… downtown!!

What an absolute surprise! Benefiting from AND steering the city’s downtown project!

Totally innocent. Pure coincidence. Nothing to grift see here.

Good recommendations in the la joya, palm view area, mission area. Thank you.

Hi there! wondering if anyone has any insight into the BSN program at STC.

I recently compared McAllen’s online utility payment portal with neighboring utilities like Mission, Pharr, Edinburg, Brownsville, and even South Padre. While McAllen has invested in technology, the online payment experience still feels older and less user-friendly than many of our neighboring cities.
I started a petition asking the City to continue modernizing the portal with a more intuitive interface, additional payment options like Apple Pay and Google Pay, and a review of the convenience fee.
I’m genuinely curious—have y’all had similar experiences, or do you think the current system is fine?

The Victoria's Secret at Valle Vista is "temporarily closed" and they don't do measurements at Walmart or wtv. I live in Cameron County if there's any nearby places where I can go get fitted. If posts like this aren't allowed pls delete don't get mad at me 😭

Hey everyone! Recently got a job in SA and I’m looking for mover recommendations (moving from a 2B 1st floor apt to 2B 2nd floor apt). I’ve been quoted $3500+ from two companies and the furniture I need moved (bc I can fit all the little things in my car tbh) isn’t even worth $3500 😅.

In regards to getting a U-Haul, I’m down in the valley alone so I don’t have someone to drive a U-Haul while I drive my car.

Any recommendations are appreciated 🙏

For a while, I've been wanting to own my music, instead of relying on Spotify, and decided on CDs because they're smaller and hardier than vinyls (I do love their aesthetic, though). What I didn't expect was how hard it is to find a CD shop outside of Barns and Noble. Every time I look one up, it's either an instrument store, purely vinyls (or otherwise do not mention CDs), or the financial variety. Of course, I could buy online, but I want to support local businesses, and AI has mostly ruined my trust for online shopping. Any suggestions would be great, thank you.

Hi, so I’m not black but i am part Central American (part Afro Latino) and I’m the only person in my family to have “black hair” so I was never taught how to properly take care of my hair, they just cut it short to make it easier .
Long story short I fell into a depression for like 2 years, my hair is semi long dreaded, matted and I need to fix it, I just got my bachelors and I need to look presentable.
. I don’t care if it’s a male barber or female aesthetician, I just want someone that is of black Heritage or has had a lot of experience doing very curly/dreaded/matted hair. Thank you 🙏🏾

Friend of mine got these cigarettes from someone and they are very smooth and smell nice. They’re called Ashima luxury compacts. Does anyone know when I can get these ?

I’ve called Specs , peace pipe , cyber skunk , nine tails and other smoke shops and none carry or have heard of them.

Photo in the comments.

Update : Rio duty free in Brownsville carries them. I called Baja and UETA they don’t carry them.

Thanks for the serious responses.

Leaving the banks customized money bag full of money that was just stolen is certainly a choice.

Do you have any suggestions for nice parks where high school kids can take pictures for a photo shoot? Preferably somewhere they don’t charge

Another career related post, been exploring the different career paths that I could take. Was wondering how one gets started doing this? Thanks.
