AMC finally closing?

We noticed that the AMC in Waco has drastically limited the number of movies showing next week and all of the shows for this Friday and Saturday are sold out. Does anyone know if they’re finally closing, fumigating or just scheduling showtimes based on their demand?

DnD

I’m interested in finding a DND group. I’m 26m, heavy set (if that matters) and I’m mostly available on Sunday afternoons. I’ve done maybe 3 one-shots of DND before so I understand the concept but still feel like a beginner. But I’ve played enough to know that I am more interested in the role-playing aspect than the dice rolling aspect. (hopefully that makes sense.)

Massage therapist

I'm looking for a massage therapist. I really like deep tissue massages but I don't want someone who's going to really torture to me. I went to a medical massage therapist in my previous townand I miss her greatly. Who do you recommend?

Track Alignment

I recently replaced my front lower control arms with adjustable ones and I'm looking to get a track focused alignment. Does anyone know of any shops in the area that would offer that?

Experienced Army Mechanic looking for work in central texas (Felony history)

Posting for my brother, who is trying to get back into steady full-time work.

He served 10 years in the Army and worked as a light-wheel mechanic, wrecker operator, and welder. He has extensive hands-on experience maintaining and repairing Humvees, 5-tons, wreckers, and other military vehicles and equipment. He is a very strong mechanic, learns unfamiliar equipment quickly, and is comfortable with physically demanding work.

His legal situation is the main thing holding him back. He is not a convicted felon; he received a suspended sentence and is currently on probation. As part of his probation, he is required to be on the sex offender registry. (went through a shitty divorce)

He lives in Gatesville but is willing to work anywhere in the Gatesville, Waco, Temple, Killeen, or surrounding Central Texas area. He is open to mechanic work, diesel/heavy equipment, welding, construction, industrial work, oilfield-related work, manufacturing, warehouse work, or pretty much anything where someone is willing to give him a chance.

He is available days, nights, weekends, overtime, and long shifts. His only consistent limitation is that he cannot work Mondays due to probation appointments and counseling. Outside of that, he is willing to work whatever schedule is needed.

He is sober, drug-free, dependable, and wants to work. Ideally, he would like to find something paying at least $25+/hr (Lower if it is in gatesville), especially given his mechanical background and experience, but the priority is finding a stable employer willing to look at his qualifications instead of immediately writing him off because of his legal situation.

If anyone knows of specific employers, shops, contractors, staffing agencies, or companies in Central Texas that have hired people in similar situations, I would really appreciate any leads.

New Antioch Church on Cameron Rd/NE Austin

I’ve posted on here before about The Well Community Church in NE Austin. Before we launch into a commentary about me having a paranoid psychotic break, this case has support from the City. It also seems more likely that it’s the Antioch Community Church Movement, who are currently building out a church near Busty’s on Cameron. Coincidentally or not, The Well offices are in the same parking lot. Much like they did in Waco, these “entrepreneurs” are buying up property—30+ houses out of 72 on our little loop. There is obviously nothing illegal about planting a church, but targeted harassment is illegal. Using construction and landscaping services as a quid pro quo is illegal. I really appreciate all the people who have reached out to me with stories and insight into these folks. They are here to change the very nature of Austin; they’re open about that fact, less so about their despicable tactics.

This 2019 article talks about Antioch buying up real estate in Waco:
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/annehelenpetersen/waco-texas-magnolia-fixer-upper-antioch-chip-joanna-gaines

Here is a quote from the linked article:
“They just decided to own Waco instead,” the member told me. “All of the weird evangelizing, it went away. They all became ambitious entrepreneurs. They employed each other. They developed a monopoly on the upwardly mobile class of Waco. If you want[ed] to rise through the social and economic ranks, the only way to do it was through the church.”

Good running spots?

Are there any good locations for long runs in the Hewitt/ Woodway area (preferably flat)? I know everyone says Cameron Park but I really want somewhere on the other side of town. I know Woodway park is decent but it has a good amount of hills and I’m training for a flat race rn.

Paxton Rally waco 10/3

I got this text, clearly they missed the fact that I've been donated to his opponent. They are truly desperate. It would be ashamed if people showed up to stand across the street and boo, you know practicing for Halloween and all!

Property Management (Shamrock, specifically)

Hi all,

Does anyone have issues with Shamrock Property Management? Are they a good place to lease from?

Are there recommendations on who you like or would avoid?

Thx
