Tried going today at noon and there was a sign that said "currently closed". Maybe I missed something but I thought they reopened?

Parents, grandparents, and the year-round idiots on Hopkins today brought it to a new level today. Blocking the box, stopping ON THE TRAIN TRACKS, moving at a glacial pace, refusing to check their mirrors, cutting into wherever they Want To. These assholes were so lucky that The Train didn’t make an appearance for their display disdain for their lives and everyone else’s. Can’t wait to meet the kids they just dropped off! I’m sure they’re all super considerate individuals!

There’s always plenty of justifiable complaints about how students drive around San Marcos, but can we take a moment to shoutout the parents?! Not a blinker as far as the eye can see, sitting in a turn lane just to cut off everyone else last minute because they want to go straight instead, stopping in the middle of the street to check their maps on where to go instead of just pulling into a parking lot… Lord, I get it now why these students don’t drive well either! Texas State really brings us the cream of the crop with their 91% acceptance rate. Keep ‘em coming too I guess since they increase enrollment each year lmfao.

That traffic is absolutely wild!!! Avoid that area if ya don’t need to go near it

Hello y’all! I’m looking for a nice houseplant for my apartment. I’d really like to support a small business that sells plants here in San Marcos, rather than buying from a larger corporation. If anyone has any recommendations, I’d greatly appreciate it! 🌿

Update:

Thank you for all the amazing suggestions that you all have given.

I'm hoping to pick up a few firearms in the next few months. Does anyone here know a good place? I don't need anything fancy. Just a chill place with prices that aren't bordering on extortion.

Has anyone worked for this company? They hired me but the process has taken weeks and then they ghosted me. I still get weekly emails confirming my offer but it’s automated so 🤷🏼‍♀️ Not sure if this is a scam.

Hey, i’m a runner but don’t know where the good running trails are. I have terrible ankles so if y’all know of well maintained, paved, running trails please let a girl know.

I’ve lived in San Mo for six years, recently moved into an apartment complex that is occupied by so many stray cats. i’ve watched the same cat give birth twice, pregnant again. i was thinking about getting the kittens and some of the friendlier cats into the shelter for a better life, but i’ve heard wishy washy things about the local animal shelter.

i’m wondering if anyone can share their experience, their thoughts, or recommendations.

I am moving to San Mo from 8 hours away and elevation on post rd seemed the best option for the price but everyone I’ve talked to hasn’t heard of it or had anything to say. I move in Monday so I’m just curious

Visiting for the weekend - anything to do here besides the mall.

San Marcos is a decent halfway point between me and my friend and we wanted to go shopping. We’re lowkey sick of the Outlet mall though (plus it’s hot), and I can’t seem to find any indoor malls like Lakeline (Austin) or North Star (San Antonio). Do they exist here or is it just Tanger and the other one? 😭

Hi I'm New to San Marcos I'm 37 and trying to meet people around my age or around 28 to 40. Where should I go ?
