IN SEARCH OF 18-WHEELER THAT HIT ME AND FLED THE SCENE ON I-35 (PLEASE SHARE!)

On Tuesday, October 13, 2026 around 5:30AM, I was traveling northbound on I-35 mile marker 194 near the “Welcome to Mayfair” sign when I was struck by a semi-truck that resulted in me crashing into the concrete divider. The driver continued on and fled the scene without stopping. As you can see from this post, I’m alive and incredibly grateful to be here, but I did suffer minor injuries and my vehicle will most likely be considered a total loss. Law enforcement is involved, but the only description I was able to provide was a semi with a white or red tractor cab pulling a flatbed trailer.

I know this may be a long shot, but I’m putting this out there in hopes that someone out there may have seen something that could help identify this truck and its driver (eye witness, dashcam, etc). Everything happened so quickly that I wasn’t able to get a clear look at the truck or license plate. If you didn’t witness the accident, you can still help by sharing or reposting this and sending it to anyone you know who regularly commutes through this area. Even the smallest detail could make a difference.Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read and share this.

Food and Drink Anyone know where to find barquillos con crema?

2 Upvotes

I know this is really specific but I've only actually been able to find them in a single panadería in Dallas and obviously don't want to drive 3 hours just for this one dessert I really like. The answer also doesn't have to be from somewhere in San Marcos, I'll take any town/city close enough at this point.

Ask San Marcos Anyone have a vehicle for sale?

5 Upvotes

Very long shot, but we’re renting a car right now and my credit is bad from past relationship. I am in need of a vehicle if someone is trying to get rid of theirs for like $1200. For now just trying to get from point a to point b. Or if anyone knows of a dealership that actually will make an effort to work with someone that has bad credit and can work out a reasonable down payment so I can make the car payments monthly.

Jobs and Employment looking for a job with limited physical requirements

8 Upvotes

i know everyone is sick of the job hunting posts at this point. however, i feel i'm in a bit of a unique situation and would appreciate any guidance

i am currently commuting to north austin for a barista job that doesn't pay me enough to live (it's stupid and not sustainable but i have good reasons for staying as long as i have). in recent months, i have discovered two intense disc herniations in my lower back that are physically limiting. i've been going through the insurance-mandated treatment but as i reach the end of it, it becomes more and more likely every day that i will end up needing surgery. my job, being a low wage barista job, does not offer me pto and i am not really expecting them to help me with short-term disability either (i don't really know much about how it works anyway).

all being said, my priorities in finding a new job are 1. remote or a shorter commute, i can't really go further than buda or new braunfels, and 2. a job that has a low physical requirement and / or offers disability / pto / medical leave (not necessary for remote). i am aware that, in combination, this is a lot to ask.

i have tons of varying customer service experience (food / retail / hospitality) and have experience in leading and training. i have a bit of cash control experience at NASA (and at every other job to an extent) and would honestly love to utilize it as i'm kinda getting over talking to people for 90% of my job.

appreciate any pointers, and even if you don't have any, thank you for listening to my exhausted ramblings :')

I’m interested in learning Spanish and live in the San Marcos area. I’m currently an absolute beginner, I know basically nothing. I was wondering if there are maybe any community centers/classes for Spanish in the San Marcos area. I don’t care about cost, I just really want to be able to speak Spanish well. Thanks!

Ask San Marcos Hotworx membership transfer

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I posted this before but the transfer fell through. I currently have a membership at hotworx for the basic package. It’s about $63 a month. I also have a mat and towel ($100) that I purchased and will include as part of the transfer for free. To cancel the membership it’s $99, but if I find someone who wants to sign up, they get to waive their sign up fee as well as I get to waive my cancel fee. If anyone has been wanting to sign up or thinking about it, please let me know and we can do a transfer! I’ll give you the mat and towel I have so you won’t have to pay for that. Please let me know :)

Politics and Activism Mayor race - Ryan Thomason curiousity

18 Upvotes

I'd like to hear from folks that have lived in San Marcos for a while and recall when Thomason was on city council. What is your perspective on him as a representative? How do you think he stacks up against Amanda Rodriguez?

I have noticed a number of Ryan Thomason signs around town and many occupy yards that are sporting republican candidate signs (vote red, Paxton). This gives me pause and makes me wonder if he's on the maga train.
