“Everyone in McKinney is dead…”

Anyone planning to take President George Bush Turnpike south be aware there are from what I counted 4 motorcycle cops waiting on the side of the road. Do not speed. They are all running radar and sitting far enough back that you won’t see them until you’re within their radar range. From what I saw, they are at the entrance of President George Bush Turnpike coming from 635 and the final one I saw was right before the exit on Walnut Hill Lane.

Good-Latimer & Canton are going to intersect as bridge bridges??? This whole layout is going to completely change the face of Deep Ellum. This is fascinating. And I can't believe how wide the I-345 is going to be when this is done!!!

DART rail corridor through the area will also be majorly simplified with less traffic crossings through local traffic is seems. The engineering that went into this is truly insane.

DART's GoPass App has a filter for cooling stations on its map menu. If you want/need to find the nearest place to cool off and be provided water, you can look on the map for the Red icon with a house after choosing the filter. It'll also let you see the fastest way by DART or walking to it.

He suffered a bad fall in late 2019, and has been in and out of comas since.

Hope everyone is staying nice and cool indoors while this heatwave passes through. Here’s a short little PSA!

While we have plenty of ways to beat the heat, keep in mind our birds, cats, unfortunately-stray dogs, and other fauna local to our area do not. Please consider supporting them, leaving access to fresh water to help them best the heat and make it through these record breaking highs.

Consider leaving a “water station” like a bucket or makeshift trough in a shaded area to help them out a little.

Thanks and stay safe everyone!!

In January, Gov. Greg Abbott barred public colleges, universities and some state agencies from filing new H-1B visa petitions without state permission through May 2027.

The Texas Tribune found that 44 Texas public universities, health centers and system offices reported sponsoring 3,332 H-1B workers. A majority of the H-1B workers at MD Anderson, for example, are conducting cancer research. We want to understand how Abbott’s directive is affecting people and higher education institutions across the state. 

Do you have direct knowledge of its effects at a Texas public university, college or academic medical center? Has it slowed hiring, disrupted research, affected clinical teams or caused international workers to reconsider positions at your institution?

This case involved kidnappings in Plano and Dallas in the 1990s.

I put your keys at the concierge desk. You’ll have to describe them to get them!

June 12-13 had tons of police / detective vehicles swarming the townhomes. I’ve heard conflicting stories, wondering what exactly happened.

Hello!

My girlfriend's brother and I are wanting to go to line dancing lessons. We are beginners - he has no dancing experience, I have dancing experience but not line dancing. He's also only 20, so I'm looking for a place that welcomes anyone 18+. I thought about Round Up but they're 21+ even for their dance lessons.

So I found Cowboys Red River, but both my girlfriends brother and I are gay and have pretty eccentric looks (we would be able to fit the dress code as is stated on the website, but we do have dyed hair and piercings and such.) I guess I'm wondering if they would be understanding of that, and if not if you guys have any other recommendations. We just wanna learn how to line dance! :-)

Hello, looking for some brunch spots recommendations for wife's birthday. Doesn't need to be too fancy but also not like waffle house lol.

Clear Insights—the polling firm previously tied to questions about a new Dallas Mavericks arena—has launched another survey focused on City Hall, potential mayoral candidates, and November's proposed public safety bond measures. After one of D Magazine's writers received an invitation to participate, we're publishing nearly all of the questions Dallas voters were asked.

Note: I wrote this, and the display headline differs from what you may see if you share it because we have to write separate headlines for SEO purposes sometimes.

Looking for any recommendations in uptown/bluffview/HP/UP-just looking for a place where we can see the same provider every time and build a relationship with them

Thanks for the recommendations in advance!

Howdy! My 2 year anniversary is coming up soon and I’d like to take my partner out to dinner and maybe do something fun if there’s an event. Anybody have any recommendations or ideas for July 31 - Aug 2nd?

Thank you!!
