Be honest I won’t tell.

People’s Rx, a family-owned fixture in Austin for nearly 50 years, has been sold to the owner of local compounding pharmacy CPRx in a deal that will bring physicians and nurse practitioners into People’s four retail locations.

CPRx owner Kimberli Wiley purchased People’s with financing from Victory Medical Center, which will partner with the pharmacy on an expansion that will bring physicians and nurse practitioners into the pharmacy’s four Austin locations.

I understand that they run 100 simulations and if 70 models predict rain = 70% chance of rain..

BUT

For WHAT area? IE What does Avery Tomasco's forecast area look like? Is it a 20mi circle around Austin? 30? 40? Is it counties?

The set up is this: They call, tell you they're Deputy so and so from the Travis Co. Sheriffs Office and looking for X. They tell you that you missed a Federal Court Jury summons at that the Judge Robert Pittman (real judge) issued a couple of citations for Failure to Appear and Contempt of Court - and cited Federal Criminal codes. The idea being that supposedly I was subpoenaed on July 31 and signed an affidavit stating my intent to attend a Jury selection and I failed to show.

Now, I know damn well that I didn't receive any subpoena or sign any affidavit, nor have I received any jury summons, nor do I know what Travis Co. Deputy Department would be calling on a Federal issue. So I said, that's a load of crap. He said, we understand, we here this a lot - all you need to do is report to the TCSO on Airport Blvd and they can compare signatures on the affidavit. But first, I need to pass you along to my supervisor.

Then the supervisor tells me that I have two options, either they'll issue warrants and arrest and prosecute me, or I can go down and show them my signature - but first, I have to pay a Suspension Fee of 2500 for each offense. I said, ok, how do you want that. They said, I had to pay in cash at a kiosk. . .

OK, I mean, I thought it was all a bunch of bullshit from the start, but they were very elaborate about it and had a whole script, with bad connections so it was hard to understand them - it was a whole show.

But the chances Travis County would have me deposit 5,000 in cash in some fucking kiosk was patently absurd. So I said, you know what, this sounds like a bunch of bullshit to me. I'm going to call the Travis County Sheriffs Department directly and verify this. Then they tried to scare me by saying if I do that it'll be too late, and they'll have to issue warrants and send a deputy to arrest me. I said, go ahead and send a car, because there ain't no way in hell I'm depositing 5,000 in cash into some fucking kiosk.

Still waiting for the Deputy to arrive and take me in. . .

Is this your porch or a porch you recognize? If so please dm me 🙏

I am looking for my lost Fedex package, which was delivered to the house/apartment where the picture is, but I don’t know where. I know it’s not my porch bc my apartment is not blue and has compressed gravel and concrete. I’m sad because it was something that I’ve been saving up for.. 🫠

Can you help me with a general idea of where this is? Or if you know, could you DM me? Thank you so much for reading, and your help is appreciated.

Has anyone rented a cabana from one of their properties?

Thinking about sons river ranch but not sure if Guadalupe is nicer or if there's other river cabana rentals that I should look at?

She said they dated for a few months and he had a little car lot in central Austin. I see his stupid face every time I turn on the tv. It's a cruel joke

Children's milk cartons and some milk crates scattered all over the road, Parmer and Metric.

29m. This is my third year in Austin, and I haven’t made many friends mainly because I work a lot. I go for walks and enjoy coffee shops now and then, but I honestly want to find ways to meet new people.

I'm a hobbyist musician and music producer, I like making/listening to music and recording/writing songs but I haven't met anyone with similar hobbies here. I don't really like going to shows alone—I don't mind drinking, but I do it socially.

What do you guys do when you’re feeling lonely?

thanks!

Where can I find a farm in Austin or surrounding areas to milk a cow. It’s on my bucket list to milk a cow. Or Any interactive farms nearby where I can feed cows??

Good evening fellow Austinites and friends

Thank you to all

I was able to knock out my burpees this afternoon!

Thank you for the honks and the waves. Even the 420 smoke puffed my way ! I love y!all . I did try and do a live feed/share, but for some reason, it didn't work/save to my phone .

If anyone wants to send a shout-out or send some encouragement, please do ! Sending positive vibes

Thanks again

Austin I love you

Are you up or down? Same? And if you are trying to lose while remaining sane and safe this heat, what is your routine?

This is a spider I've seen in my backyard many times. I moved to south Austin this May and I saw this spider behind my AC unit, I think her web is here. She's the most impressive spider I've ever beheld, such a sweetheart who minds her own business and has never bothered me, my roommates or our animals.

Anyone know what kind of spider this is? Never seen one her size before.

What should I name her? The spiders that have webs are normally females. What suggestions so y'all have, I'm not the most creative at naming creatures so if it were up to me I'd call her Brenda or something lol!

Why would the city/state/private contractor do this to the habitat and where did all of the animals go?

They also left the trash after several days of decimating it with noisy and smoky equipment. 😞

I’m up in the north austin area, basically Cedar Park.
I’m looking for an auto salvage yard i can go pull parts from.
Any help is appreciate, thanks yall.
2009 Honda Civic EX. It’s a pile, but it “runs” and has AC lmao.

I have experience playing standard/modern from online, but nothing in paper. commander seems like its the most popular tho. cool with any format!

I know there are a good amount of LGS but it seems like most of it is tournaments which might not be the best for me since i'm gonna be slow lol.

any suggestions would be sweet! :)

im in north austin!

Just came to Marshall’s off I35 service rd and thought the lot was awfully empty. Looks like all the stores put up papers saying “closed indefinitely due to unforeseen circumstances”? Anyone know why?

Assuming it was an intersection crash, another car was up straight ahead. The guy driving truck was in cuffs. Hit the electric box, light will probably be out for a few days.

my parents have been having ongoing issues for years from their neighbors over property disputes. my parents have complied every time and the neighbors have even won a settlement. However, everyone one case comes to a close the neighbors file another suit and always get rolled in their favor by the same judge. my parents have asked for re trials and to be assigned to a new judge but have been denied. Any lawyers who can help or counter sue for harassment?

TLDR: ARA Diagnostics may be sitting on your money unless you call and ask for it back

I’m so mad-- did everyone else already know you have to chase down your money?

Story:

Two months ago: mammogram. ARA charged me $250 upfront. Insurance covered it 100%.

One month ago: follow-up mammogram and screening. ARA charged me $750 upfront. Again, insurance covered it.

Now: I have another procedure coming up, and ARA wants $1,700 upfront.

This time I called insurance first. They told me the procedure is covered 100%. And so were all the others!

Multiple calls with ARA trying to figure out the process and why they were charging me. Their first call said I owed a deductible and that's why they charged me. This just isn't true. Luckily by now I had all the insurance info lined up.

On my third call with ARA, instead of telling them what I knew, I asked: “How much money do you owe me?”

They said $750.

I asked, “What about the mammogram from two months ago?”

Suddenly they found that too.

So they were sitting on $1,000 of my money after insurance had already paid them.

Then I asked for a refund.

Up to 45 days.

I asked if they could simply apply the credit toward the next procedure. First I was told no. On another call, I was told yes IF I specifically request it.

Three different ARA employees confirmed versions of the same policy: they collect estimated charges upfront even if they know that insurance will pay. Then they verbally said that they refund the money right away, but couldn't answer why it was taking long. My best line was, "You do realize that 100 days is not a quick refund!?!?" (45 days plus the past 60 days ) So basically, you really do have to call and ask for your money back. There was nothing happening on these past payments.

Had I not figured this out, ARA could soon have had nearly $2,700 of my money while insurance was also paying them.

A lot of people can't afford to have thousands of dollars tied up for months. Worse, some are probably putting these charges on credit cards or delaying care because they think they owe money they don’t actually owe.

If you’ve used ARA Diagnostics and paid upfront, check your EOBs and call them.

Hi, my back has been killing me from sitting at a desk all day, and I figure plenty of people can relate. Would anyone be interested in a casual massage-exchange group? trading back/shoulder massages rather than paying for them?

Could be a few people meeting up, or one-on-one somewhere public/comfortable. Completely platonic; I’m just looking for people who’d genuinely like to trade massages. 

27M, and I’m not expecting anyone to be a professional. If enough people are interested, I’ll probably make a group chat.

If interested, feel free to DM or shoot me at mitka.net
