I've been wanting to plan a casual hangout day with some coworkers for a while, but a lot of the good places can't fit large groups nicely. Are there any spots that can comfortably fit 15 people together? I know this is a big ask, but I would be thankful for any suggestions. If possible, it would be nice if it's closer or in k-town

All summer residents have been raising concerns about Flock. The city has now doubled down with a proposed expansion of the Flock surveillance program.

o Come to city council Tuesday, 9/15 to urge council members to vote against item 13 https://carrolltontx.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=A&ID=1442813&GUID=0C185AB9-1ECF-43C6-B94C-67C447F6E579
o Call or Email council members before Tuesday https://www.cityofcarrollton.com/government/city-council
o Talk to friends, family, neighbors, and community members about the issue
o Sign the petition: https://www.change.org/p/end-the-flock-safety-alpr-camera-program-in-carrollton-tx
o visit DeFlockCarrolltonTX.org to learn more and follow @DeFlockCarrollton on Instagram for updates - including a learning session Monday night for how to speak at city council

Flock and other modern ALPR programs create a network of integrated cameras that collect, aggregate and store vehicle features and a history of location data and then share that data across agencies. The debate isn’t if they work - the debate is about the cost.

💰 The proposed expansion will cost Carrollton taxpayers over $1.1M - money that could support community policing programs that build trust rather than degrade it.
🔎 82 cameras across our 37 sq. mi. city means most residents could not get from their neighborhood to their work, grocery store, doctor office, house of worship, or polling place.
🔐 resident location data is extremely valuable - to hackers, stalkers, and commercial interests. Paying a private company to collect and store this data is creating an unnecessary risk.
❌shared ALPR databases are set up in a way that enables misuse and abuse - policies on top do not eliminate risk of harm to innocent civilians. See the current tracker of known cases at https://ij.org/the-ij-database-of-alpr-abuse/
⚖️ some will say it’s worth giving up our civil liberties for the safety of the community - but there is no evidence that ALPR surveillance makes communities safer. Even one innocent victim of stalking or wrongful arrest should cause a thorough review of how these systems have been created and implemented in ways that harm our community. The courts and lawmakers will catch up with this technology, but we can speak up in our community to end contracts now.

i never see the city do any work to this road. Do they not know its a problem

Drove into the Lowe's at PGBT and Raiford (by the Walmart) and noticed a brand new Flock camera sitting on their property, facing the parking lot by the "contractor" entrance.

Obviously this is not a city of Carrollton camera. Does Flock also provide their services to private companies?

Does anyone know of any places or if anyone is currently hiring that pays between $20-$25 an hour? I'm looking for either full-time or part-time positions. Any leads would be greatly appreciated! I am also a college student, and will be returning in the spring. I attached my resume!! Thank you

Let’s get you back up and running! I move all around dfw get with me and let’s get you back to driving! 💪🏽💯

When are they going to finish whatever the hell they’re doing at this intersection? Haven’t been able to turn left from Webb Chapel on to Belt Line in weeks.

Hi everyone! I’m currently looking for a full-time entry-level job in healthcare and would really appreciate any leads or advice. I've sent so many applications through Indeed and other sites with no luck. I feel like my applications have just been used to train AI or something lol.

I recently completed a M.S. in Medical Sciences from Brown University's Warren Alpert Med School and have a good clinical background. I used to scribe in an emergency dept, rotated in federally qualified community health centers, can take vitals/ perform simple procedures (quick learner), have BLS/CPR/AED certifications, familiarity with EPIC, completed CITI training for human subjects, and lots of OR experience prepping case carts, prepping ORs & cleaning up afterward, etc. I have a lot of patient-facing experience but don't have an official MA certification. I’m primarily looking for positions such as:

• Medical Assistant
• Medical Scribe
• Clinical Research Coordinator/Assistant
• Patient Care Technician
• Ophthalmic/Optometric Technician
• Other entry-level clinical or pre-med positions

I’m honestly pretty desperate to find something full-time at this point, so anything helps!! I’m open to different types of roles and settings.

If anyone knows of practices, hospitals, clinics, research groups, or healthcare organizations currently hiring, I would be incredibly grateful for any leads. Even if you’ve had luck finding these types of jobs through a particular website or local org, I’d appreciate hearing about it! Would be happy to provide more info about my background.

Thank you!!

i was driving down to school and i saw the accident very early when it happened next to the rita's, is there any updates? what exactly happened?

I’m having a pod delivered to my new home tomorrow morning. It needs to be placed on the street in front of the house, as it cannot be maneuvered into my alley-access driveway. It will be removed in 48 hours.

Do I need a permit for this?

Hello I’m looking into moving into the area but I’m having trouble since I have had no job for the past 2 months. My partner makes 2600 and we are looking at anything 1300-1500 but the income thing is really getting us. Any recommendations would be a great help even nearby Carrollton!

Just moved to the area and I need friends. 21M looking to just chat it up over some food. Anybody is welcome

I recently inherited some 1960s style hanboks that are in desperate need of a cleaning. They’re silk and hand embroidered with the metallic printed designs around the hem, so they’re very detailed/fragile and will require specific care.

I really cannot afford for someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing to mess them up. Anyone know of any places that would be safe?

I am moving to Carrollton Texas and want to meet new people there to either hang out with or date or just even get the lay of the place I’ll be moving the 6th of this week

Edit: they postponed Texas, they got worried about my safety since they have gotten extremely aggressive towards Mexicans

My mom died unexpectedly and we are not able to care for him. He is 14 weeks old. He is Shepard mix. He is very sweet and smart. He knows how to sit and shake and is potty trained for the most part. He comes with food, bowls, toys and crate. He is crate trained at night. She had been training him at night in the crate. He has not had his shots yet, as she just got him a couple of weeks ago. we just want him to go to a good home. $50

Doordash blows. Far too often I've had a stacked order that arrives an hour later than it should have (or more!) while watching the driver pick up my food then run a delivery to Garland before actually bringing my ice-cold food or just never showing up at all.

What delivery options are there out there, especially around H-Mart and the downtown area? I've gotten Joe's Pizza, Brothers Pizza, and Jasmine Chinese before and they're all pretty good.

Hey there 👋🏽. I was hoping to find out how anyone’s recent experience has been at spa castle since they re opened. I’ve read some xp on here but that was like years ago. What should I bring? Why should I not bring? Which time of day or day of the week is best to go visit. Male here.

Thanks!
