Just days before early voting, North Texas Congressman Keith Self sent constituents a newsletter warning about a “Red-Green Alliance” of communists and radical Islamists.

He identified no individuals or organizations in his district connected to the alleged threat. His office has also left repeated requests for local evidence unanswered.

Meanwhile, the League of Women Voters of Collin County says it invited him to a candidate forum and never received a response.

The opinion column examines his warnings, the unanswered questions and his reluctance to debate Democratic challenger Evan Hunt.

Isn't it nice to step outside and your face doesn't catch on fire?

It's great weather for a nice social slow bike ride, exploring Richardson's quieter, bike friendlier streets.

Let's get out and enjoy it.

We'll ride for about 10 miles. Nobody left behind.

Most likely we'll have an ice cream stop.

Bring lights, it'll be dark when we get back.

See you there!

Hi everyone! I’m a 4th year sociology PhD student at the University of Chicago. I’m studying racial relations through interracial friendships in the urban south, and I’m looking for ANYONE to interview that was born in the US, is over 18, and lives in the Dallas area, whether you have interracial friendships, had but don’t have one anymore, or never had one! I will provide up to a $30 gift card/meal for participants. Everything will be confidential. PLEASE PLEASE dm me or respond here if you’re interested!

Hey there, I’m coming up on my lease end soon like November or December, and I’m looking to rent a room or move into a house…something like that.

If anyone has any openings, feel free to DM me. Ideally I’m looking for a month to month or short term lease situation about $700-$800 a month, or even less, and have my own room and bathroom in the place as well as have access to common areas when needed. I keep to myself a lot tho so I won’t be doing anything crazy or using common areas a lot.

I’m 32m white, don’t smoke or do drugs, have great credit and renter’s history, and am a quiet, thoughtful guy. Just needing a place close to my work in Richardson as my current place in Carrollton is a bit far for me right now and my lease is coming to an end there.

Please DM if you have an opening or have any more questions for me, just putting out the feelers now as I know it can be a process to get to know a renter and want to find out more about them. Thanks!

Looking for a gospel/pop piano teacher with daytime availability for an adult learner if you’ve may recommendations!

Hi all, my sister who is a staunch, loyal packers fan is coming today to help take care of me after several surgeries this next week. We have had a healthy rivalry between my Cowboys and her Packers.
I know Benders used to have a strong packer fan base on game days. Is that still the case? If not, are there other locations in the Richardson area where Packer Fans congregate???
It is her first time in Texas and I want her to feel the love, especially since she is taking time out of her busy schedule to help me out.

Have pricing from two plumbers; both in the same ballpark per square foot. Should I keep getting bids or am I chasing ghosts looking for a price that doesn’t exist? This is to replace all cast iron sewer pipes. Any thoughts or local recs are welcome. Thx

So I just moved to the north Dallas area, specifically Richardson, and my apartment has German cockroaches. This is a new build “luxury” apartment complex and it was very clean when I first moved in a couple of weeks ago but now I’m noticing roach activity.

Is this normal for apartments in DFW should I just expect this? I know they are notoriously difficult to get rid of, I’ve already requested pest control at my complex but they aren’t able to come for another week :/

What frustrates you most about your HVAC system, and what do you wish you had known before making a call on a repair or replacement? I’m also curious how you like to get that kind of info.

Some context on why I’m asking. After years of doing SEO for home services companies, I kept seeing the same problems with HVAC info in Richardson.

1. Very few sites use Richardson-specific data. Most pull costs from national averages or a single vendor.
2. The sites that do offer local info are usually owned by one HVAC company that funnels leads back to itself. They aren’t shady about it. It’s right on their about page.
3. HVAC is complicated, and without good resources a lot of homeowners overspend or pick the wrong tech.

About three weeks ago I started building an independent resource for Richardson homeowners to fix that. I’m not affiliated with any HVAC company. The research has been a lot of phone calls vetting local companies, reading what people say about them online, and walking neighborhoods. People usually assume I’m selling something. I’m not.

One person in this sub pointed me to an HVAC tech, and we’ve had some good early conversations about him getting involved. Happy to share the site if anyone wants it.

Drop your thoughts below.

Hey yall this is a bit of a long shot but does anyone here either work at the Richardson ESA or know someone who does? I stayed there last week for one night and I'm 99% sure i left my childhood stuffed animal there. Called them and they said they found nothing but I don't even know if they KNOW what they're looking for. Ive looked through all of my stuff multiple times and I cant find it. It's a red and black lady bug microbead pillow, if I can get ahold of someone who works there to make sure its not there that would help alot. Or if someone wants to go there and show them this picture idk.. I'm desperate at this point I've had that thing for 20 years 😭 I would take my butt up there but I am 8 hrs away in MS.

Looking for a boba place in Richardson that has sago as a topping since I don’t want to commit to the drive to go to Frisco for a taro milk tea with sago. I appreciate any suggestions, and TIA!

Looking for recommendations (based in Cityline) to help me with a move in cleaning for our 2br apartment at the end of the month. May also need for monthly cleanings afterwards.

Just came from this fun little park. We go almost every weekend because of the little “race track.” I was so sad and disappointed seeing how trashed it was tonight. Chip bags, wipes, empty water bottles all over the place. We picked up what was left of the litter before we left but jeez friendly reminder to clean up after yourselves people and teach kids to be responsible for their messes. It’s a public place for all families to enjoy.

26M with two kids who is constantly training & running races. Looking for men around my age / life stage to run with. Live in Canyon Creek and got a tricked out garage gym. Not opposed to big run clubs but would rather run with 2-3 people. Would love to hit JJ Pearce track 1-2 a week too. Train mostly between 5-6am.

Message me!

Has anyone been to this salon? I’m looking to get my hair colored there but I’m nervous about trying a new place

Does anyone know a trustworthy and relatively affordable vet in the richardson area? Need to get my dogs shots updated and get a checkup.

I’m building a full HVAC resource hub for Richardson. Too many home service websites rely on national or statewide cost data, with little information that’s genuinely local and useful to homeowners. I’ve been working to collect data from Richardson residents while publishing other helpful resources along the way. One of my first pieces is now live: a look at top HVAC companies based on Google reviews at richardsontxhvachub.com. It’s the first step toward a broader rating that will dig into the details Richardson residents actually want to know. Let me know what you think!
