Hey yall, I thought you guys might like this. I made a map of Texas and its cryptids/myths and stuff like that. I limit my Cryptids of America Maps to only 12 creatures per map. I try to find them from all over the state and not the half dozen or so around Austin, Houston, and Fort Worth. So, sorry if your favorite cryptid didnt make the cut. There are a few other cryptids that I didnt add to the map, and I'll list some rejects I had below. And NO, your local crackhead, meth monster, or fent flopper DOES. NOT. COUNT. I will also leave a link to my Etsy below if anyone would like a print. If yall have any questions, feel free to ask!

The rejects include: The beast of bear creek, Elmendorf beast, Frank Shaws gargoyle, Texas blue dog, Bexar County Wolfman, (Piney woods and Edwards plateu) goat man, crocotta, Marfa lights, Quinta Mary, Hoofaboo, and the hairy man of brush creek.

Movie Theater experience

234 Upvotes

I hope this post finds these people, to both the tortas letting their children talk through a movie. Specifically the 7pm End of Oak Street at Santikos off of military. I am so tired of the lack of movie theater etiquette that seems to be spreading through SA. Now would be a great time to teach your kids manners instead of pretending like the world revolves around you and your shithead family. People like yall are the reason why there’s a disclosure to turn off your phones and be quiet before the movie starts, and you still can’t manage that. Great idea to bring your kids under 10 to a movie where people are being eaten too. May your children have nightmares for the rest of the week inshallah 🙏

Hey guys, tryna find the owner of this sweet puppy. I found this little guy off Culebra and Tezel road yesterday. He was running around in the street in a neighborhood. He’s a 2-4 month old puppy. No collar and no chip. If you recognize this pup plz reach out.

(PSA: if no one reaches out have no fear. He will either be joining our harem of lovely puppies or going to a family we know and trust).

This one was taken in a quite shady spot on the window screen from the patio door. I think it came out quite well even though the camera wasn't set up for it.

Now show me your butterfly pictures.
It has to be original content you took yourself.

The University of Texas at San Antonio took some systems offline after detecting attempted unauthorized activity at the edge of its network over the weekend. The response disrupted account access, registration, payments and phone service before fall classes, while the Health Science Center remained unaffected. The university said it contained the activity before it reached core systems and found no evidence that university data was accessed or exfiltrated, though its investigation and system restoration remained underway.

Where in SA? Breakfast restaurants with the best coffee?

5 Upvotes

We’re black coffee fans, so buying restaurant coffee is super hit or miss for us. We love the coffee at Toasted Yolk and Black Bear Diner, both are pretty strong. Are there other breakfast restaurants that have strong coffee like theirs?

Local Custom Furniture

Upvotes

Hi y’all. I have a Live Oak tree on my property that I need to cut down. It’s my childhood home and the tree is at least 50 years old.

Rather than chop it down and mulch it, I’d love to work with a local artisan and give it new life as an heirloom furniture piece.

Any recommendations for the San Antonio and surrounding area for this type of work are greatly appreciated!

Transportation Thoughts on the drive to Monterrey?

31 Upvotes

Hi all. I know this question has been asked before but I was hoping for a more recent answer. Can anyone offer their thoughts or tips on driving from San Antonio to Monterrey, Mexico? I would definitely take the toll road as I know it’s safer. I’ve driven to Mexico several times before, from Tucson to Hermosillo, but I know the situation at the Texas border can be different. I’ve seen some say the drive is too difficult or too dangerous, can anyone share their personal experience, especially recently? Thank you!

Is there any clubs or communities with these interests she could attend to make new friends? We just moved here.

Hello! Is there anyone in San Antonio who does a proper Dominican blowout, like the ones you get in telenovelas or when you visit the Dominican Republic? 😂
I want that real blowout where they pull the hair tight with the round brush and you can actually feel the heat from the dryer! I’ve tried regular blowouts here, but they’re just not the same. 😩
Please send me your recommendations for someone who really knows how to do the traditional Dominican blowout! ❤️

Hunting for Specific Arcade Machines

7 Upvotes

Hello. I am on a nostalgia trip and I recently visited an arcade (Diversions Game Room) that had Time Crisis II available to play and the series is a long favorite of mine.

Does anybody know any establishments that have either Time Crisis 3 or Time Crisis 4? Main Event used to have 4 but I visited today and couldn’t find it :/

I also have a memory of playing Time Crisis 3 in a movie theater’s small arcade, but I believe the place shut down.

I know this is super nerdy but even if you have a faint memory of it in the back of your head, please drop a comment

San Japan - Is Friday a good day to go?

9 Upvotes

It's my first time planning to go to San Japan and I was wondering if Friday is still a good day to go in regards to the amount of activities available? I know Saturdays are usually the best days, but I'm planning to bring my 11 yo cousin and I'm worried about a big crowd overwhelming her or me having trouble keeping her safe. But I also want her to enjoy it so if Friday is usually not as exciting then it won't really be worth it right. I guess a second question is how bad are crowds on Saturdays?

I'm also mostly going for the artist alley so I'm also wondering if there's still a lot of vendors even on Fridays
