Petland just opened in Arlington. They are notoriously awful. They have had managers arrested for animal cruelty, been sued for selling sick puppies and are routinely linked to puppy mills. They have two smaller competitors, Puppy Dreams and Petito. Well guess what? All 3 have just recently opened stores here.

I post this as a consumer warning. All three of those companies have been proven to use puppy mills and all three have been accused of selling sick puppies to unsuspecting families.

The Texas House of Reps voted to ban the sale of puppies in pet stores a few years ago. That bill didn't pass the Senate. I hope it gets done in 2027.

About 18 Texas cities banned the sale of puppies in stores, but the legislature took away the right of city councils to do much of anything that regulates businesses anymore, so local ordinances will not protect us.

Here are links to prove what I am saying.

I live close to UTA, and I don’t like long drives, so somewhere within 15 minutes is my preference.

I can make exceptions though for a well reviewed therapist up to 30 minutes away, I’ll make the drive and then transition to virtual appointments if I don’t feel like making the drive

I have depression, anxiety, and need guidance to get my life back on track. If you know of anyone who can help, I’d appreciate it. Thanks!

So I missed the deadline for the Fort Worth Zoo - Boo at the Zoo Pumpkin Contest. I put the deadline on my calendar for 10/17, not 10/16. And now I have a really awesome pumpkin and nowhere to enter it!

Does anyone know of any non-carving pumpkin decorating contests in DFW?

Hey guys! I’ve been meaning to get my hair cut, but sometimes it’s hard to find a stylist that knows how to cut curly hair well. Especially as a dude, a lot of the “curly hair specialists” seem moreso targeted towards women so I worry they might not have as much experience cutting the hair of a curly haired guy (idk if that’s a dumb assumption)

That being said, are there any good barbers nearby for curly haired men?

did anyone else in downtown arlington just hear that??? sounded like a huge plane flew by super low or something but i didn't see anything. saw everyone outside looing around everywhere. holy shit that was loud.

Not sure if this has been talked about before or what but the intersection at Division and Collins for turning left is INSANE. I am stuck there for 5-10 minutes every time.

Maybe someone on here knows. Past couple weeks there’s been a man in a wheel chair at the traffic light waving at everyone. Not begging for money. Doesn’t really look homeless. Not promoting anything. Just out there waving at people for 6+ hours a day. First time i saw it and was “that dude is friendly” but he’s been there several times since.

Anyone seen this?

Making one more attempt to reunite this item with its owner. It looks like a very sentimental piece.

I do not know when it was lost, but the fact that the colors are faded and there's some other wear/damage makes me think it wasn't very recent. Minimum 3 months ago, maximum, maybe 2 years.

I believe the owner was probably quite young.

It was recovered from the filter of a large swimming pool.

Tell me what charms are on it.

Not sure what’s going on. Never had this many issues with power. North Arlington here.

I noticed my portable lithoum ion battery charger stopped working and is slowly expanding. I've looked up where to dispose of it safely but I've had no luck. I found this page on the Arlington website about proper disposal in Arlington, it says that Lowe's and Home Depot are disposal options, but when I called the Lowes on W Arbrook and the Home Depot on W Road to Six Flags St, they both said that they only take batteries with nothing wrong with them. I called batteries+ on N Fielder and no human answered the phone. Now I am thinking that I literally have to call the fire department next. I checked out the Battery Network website to see where I can dispose and it literally lists locations that I have already called that say that they actually can't dispose of my expanding battery.

I'm getting really frustrated at this point, is there actually a place where I can dispose of this lithium ion rechargeable battery before it blows up and starts a fire? ​

It’s a little late, but I just thought to post this here! I’m hosting a free artist get together where beginner or veteran artists in the area can meet to draw alongside each other!

I’m hosting one today and one on the 10th!

I am a dad with a 6 year old kid living in Tarrant County. My wife and I separated two months ago, but we have been splitting time back and forth between us. That changed, however, when I told her I was ready to go through with our separation. Now, she insists that our child should stay with her mainly because my job requires me to go to work earlier than she does. I have always dropped him off from school, taken him to the pediatrician, and become involved in soccer practices and other parenting activities, so it sounds strange to me to hear suggestions that I will be a “weekend parent now.” I want to avoid either keeping records about everything we do or showing up to court without anything on my hands. Has anyone else gone through this kind of situation here? What kind of records would be useful?

Hi all, I’m looking for advice and/or resources. I don’t want this to sound like one of those scammy posts but I do need help. I’m a regular lower middle class mom with a full time job. I’m so stressed about money and the upcoming holidays that I can’t think about it without crying. I’m not low income enough to qualify for any formal assistance but I am low income enough to have a maxed out credit card and have to sell items on marketplace to buy groceries with cash. What I’m asking is, are there any food banks, free meals, Christmas present assistance programs that you all know about? We’re not going to get evicted, but we are living on oatmeal and I could really just use some help. Please DM me if uncomfortable posting a resource.

Edit: thank you everybody 🙏

Long story short.. I'm dealing with someone who has a record of this, though we've been through it and all things were revealed some time ago. But, patterns are patterns and we're back to disappearing from around 10:30-1:00am a few nights a week.

I'm looking for someone who might be interested in staking out a place around 10:30.. maybe 15-30 minutes. Taking pictures if seeing anything, etc..

I don't really want to get into details here, but would appreciate anyone who might be available and interested contacting me.

Thank you

Edit: Not asking for relationship advice here. I do realize and completely acknowledge that the trust issue, is mine to work out. But because of that, I'm not going to levy accusations at her simply because I have doubts. I would rather know, and have the evidence.

If you want to give relationship advice, then there are plenty of reddits where your expertise in psychology and relationships will be appreciated.

Coolest temps since late May. This is the mood-booster I so badly need.
