Well for starters it’s the one and only good public buidling we’ve got and it’s so popular that pretty millennial women take their instagram shots and hang out in groups on nice afternoons on the outs

 The Austin Police Department said it was searching for two suspects in connection with a shooting in south Austin. APD said the shooting resulted in serious injuries.

According to police, the shooting occurred Monday at approximately 5:40 p.m. in the 1300 Block of West Ben White Boulevard, which is east of Menchaca Road.

“Preliminary investigation revealed that the victim’s vehicle was cut off by a dark grey Volkswagen sedan occupied by two Black males. One of the suspects, who was a passenger of the Volkswagen, fired several gunshots into the victim’s vehicle. The gunshots hit both victims; one adult occupant in the chest, and a juvenile child in the head,” APD said.

The City of Austin’s Parks and Recreation Department (PARD) apologized after sending out an email that alarmed several workers.

The email sent on Jan. 25 titled in part “Healing from racial trauma,” told people to attend one of two meetings: one for people of color and one for white people.

So an equity and inclusion coordinator pissed off people of color at the PARD.  I never bought into the "we're living in a computer simulation" stuff, but things like this make one wonder. 

I'm sure the Ron Swanson of the department will get this mess sorted out.

Dude. I ate at that same eggroll stand, and got kicked out of Portuguese class. Something about I was supposed to "enroll," maaaaaan.

Some fat, white, middle-aged asshole cussed out my wife and daughter in the Starbucks parking lot on Great Hills a week or so ago.   The spots there are tiny, and she was parked dead center (according to her).  Well parked or not, he didn't like that he had to shimmy his fat ass to get inside his car, rolled down his window and started screaming obscenities at my wife.   Wife asked him to calm down as our 11 year old daughter was with her, and he proceeded with "fuck your daughter, she's a bitch too."  Then looked right at my daughter and said, "Yeah, you.  You're a bitch just like your mom."  

Given this site's proclivity for attracting a bevy of men who meet this particular description, I thought I might see if this story sounds familiar to anyone.  If you happen to be the guy, please announce yourself so I can come over and feed you your teeth.  If you're not man enough to message me your name and address, know that I'll eventually find you anyway.  

 

 

With that out of the way, there does seem to be an uptick in the general level of anger out there in Austin these days.  I don't know if it's the influx of northeasterners bringing a more direct form of communication to us Texans, who prefer to act nice outwardly and talk shit behind your back, or it's a result of the political environment of the last few years, the state of the economy over the last few years, pandemic, etc. etc etc.

You ain't wrong.....but I don't frequent Starbucks.  I am a cheap bastard who drinks the brew at the office.

Between drinking 99.9999 percent of my coffee at work or old fashioned drip at home or ranch, I bet my lifetime cost per cup is around a penny.

Don't talk to fat ugly chicks, and don't use face recognition on your phone.  Problem solved.

To be fair, you can be drugged without talking to any strangers, good looking or not, while out and about.  Happened to me.

It was me. Can we keep this between us? I’d hate to lose my teaching job.

"Dead center".

My wife's vehicle has a 360 overhead camera view and she uses it religiously, so I tend to believe she was parked just fine, but yeah, you never know.  Those spots are tiny in that lot.  Fuck that guy either way.    Perhaps the worst part is neither of us can stand Starbucks and wouldn't go there, but our daughter has taken a liking to the bagels, of all the fucking things, so she asks to go there with some regularity for a plain bagel toasted with butter.   It's mind-numbingly ridiculous, but we give in now and then.

Ended up January with six homicides.

This includes the one where the guy out on zero bail after being arrested a month earlier for carrying a weapon while being a felon (second time) killed his girlfriend... allegedly. As well, one of those homicides stemmed from the game room where Guy A kills security guard and second security guard then kills Guy A. Counts as two homicides even though no charges are brought against the second security guard.

Here's how it stacks up against previous years:

2020: 5
2021: 5
2022: 11
2023: 9
2024: 6

A nice downtick, but 2021 actually ended with the most of any of those years as we came out of COVID.

Seriously.  Going to Starbuck's for a bagel is like going to Subway for pizza.

And eating a bagel is like eating a shoe. Y'all are supposed to be Texans. Act like it, damnit

2023 would have been lower if it wasn't for some crazy dude from SATX choosing Austin for his crime spree

February says hold my beer. Shooting at a Super 8 in the middle of the night? Drugs absolutely had nothing to do with it.

https://www.kxan.com/news/local/austin/police-investigating-homicide-in-south-austin-motel/

AUSTIN (KXAN) – Austin police said they are investigating a deadly shooting at a south Austin motel as a homicide early Thursday morning.

Police said one adult is dead at the Super 8 Motel on the southbound Service Road of Interstate 35 just south of U.S. Highway 290.
