Do you guys ever go to the Texas Theater for Tuesday Night Trash? I went to the last one and it was a lot of fun. It happens the first Tuesday of every month and they screen a different B movie each time. The movie is free, and they do have drinks and food available for purchase.
Thank you for the warm welcome! 🤠
I am planning on driving down my car, I’m just looking for walkable neighborhoods because I enjoy walking around if I have the time in the evenings. I’m also chonky and can use the exercise. I love spicy food, so that’s only a good thing for me haha. I assumed most apartment buildings offered parking for tenants. Is that not something I should assume as a default?
Also I did consider the politics thing. While it’ll be annoying dealing with the 5, I’m hoping to make friends among the 4 that can turn frustrating encounters into laughs. And I’m hoping it won’t affect me much on a day to day basis, but I guess I’ll find out :)
I’ll be at UTSW. I was thinking of either staying near the hospitals, or in Oak Lawn since it’s a short drive from the hospitals and I read somewhere that its a walkable neighborhood for groceries, coffee, etc. Is that true?
I’ll be at UTSW so Dallas proper (afaik). I do not have a place to live yet (I don’t start until later in June and still have to finish things up here till early May)
For better or worse, I come from an area where I already rely on a car for everything, and bike lanes only exist in name. So I figure Dallas can only be a little better than where I am in the burbs.
I’m not sure what you consider to be people on the ground, but one would argue the people publishing peer reviewed research in the field have dedicated a significant part of their lives to that topic and are as “on the ground” as possible when it comes to their area of expertise.
“Moral idiocy” is a great way to sum it up
Closest real movie I can come up with is Shanghai Noon. It’s not samurai, but it does have eastern martial arts in an old west setting.
