Hotels in southwest houston

Curious what your guys thoughts are. Every time I come back to the states it feels like every service is trying to extract as much money out of me as possible. It's small things like tipping, needing to rent airport carts, needing to pay for "premium" wifi in the hotel. What are your guys thoughts?

Here are mine:
Map Expansions: Hong Kong/Slovakia/Taiwan (either announced as launching that day or coming later in the year), Greece, Denmark, Mexico (a combination or something else)
DCE (Detailed City Experience): Houston, Detroit, Denver, Minneapolis, Dallas, Phoenix, Barcelona, Madrid, Rome, Milan/Como, Paris (a combination or something else).
Features I think most likely will be announced: AR enhancements, Transit upgrades/updates, improvements to MapKit
Features I would love to see but am unsure of right now: Significant Look Around or DCE expansion in the US, Offline Maps
I will say that no matter what Apple announces, they will close the gap with Google Maps to some extent. Depending on what they announce, however, will determine whether it's a large or small extent. Offline Maps will be a massive addition by itself, in my opinion. DCE will be great as well. It won't be long before we find out what officially gets added!
*Nothing here should be taken factually until at least after Apple announces what's coming

Good evening!
I'm in the process of planning a road trip for July that is education-centric -- specifically space/astronomy and US History. This is my first time planning a road trip with so many stops, so I would very much appreciate feedback from those who are more experienced.
I've set a goal of trying to have no more than 7 hours of driving in any one day. and wrapping up all the driving before it gets dark. Otherwise, I'm trying to be pretty flexible.
I'd welcome any thoughts! I especially like short "stretch your legs" roadside stops. If you know of any on this route, please let me know!

Well, I'm weary and tired, I've done my day's riding Nighttime is rolling my way The sky's all on fire and the light's slowly fading Peaceful and still ends the day
—John Denver, "Song of Wyoming"

Part 1 Part 2
When last we left our intrepid explorers, they were camped at Buckland Flats near Salt Lake City. Driving down from Buckland Flats in the early morning, Nibbler and I are tired, but wanting to make some good headway into the trip. It's been an exhausting trip so far. The camping is fun, but when mixed with 400-500 mile travel days, it begins to wear on you.
According to my calculations (i.e. guesses), I think we can make it well into Wyoming before needing to charge again. And surely most cities in WY will have charging stations, even if they aren't the 3-lightning-bolt ones.
Okay, so I was wrong.
We roll into Rock Springs with around 57 miles of range still left. I thought I saw on the map that there was a charging station at the local Wally World, but no. It turns out that the nearest charging station is 104 miles back the way we came (there's one in Rawlings on our route, but it's 112 miles).[1]
I have no clue what to do. A call to Jessica at Rivian confirms that I'm a screwed. Jessica consults with her colleagues and they discover a small charger in the downtown area. The drawback is that it charges at ~15 miles / hour. I spend the day in Rock Spring's downtown, with exciting boarded up buildings, delectable no restaurants, and so little to see and do! There is a cafe at least, so I can drink some tea while staving off boredom.
Once I get a charge of 115 miles, I make my getaway. The speed limit varies between 70 and 80 mph, which will destroy my range, so once again I have to drive well under the speed limit.

Trucker 1: What the...? That Rivian jerk is back at it! I thought he was going west! Trucker 2: Are you sure this isn't the omen? Trucker 1: Don't start on that again. I told you that Ouiji board is just a game! Trucker 2: But how do you explain this guy and the ravens we saw back in Salt Lake?!

u/Isanbard's Tips for Driving on Minimal Charge:

1. Use Conserve mode (natch),
2. Drive no more than 65 mph, preferably less,
3. Use regenerative breaking as much as possible, and
4. Avoid superstitious truckers.

This should increase your range by a few miles and allow you to fulfill the prophesy!
Anywoo, we get to Rawlings with scant miles to spare. It's late in the day, and while Wyoming is beautiful, I'm not in the best mood and am weary and decide that once we get to Cheyenne we'll spend the night in a hotel. It was a great idea (except the not-putting-Nibbler-into-his-carrier part, but I had too much blood in my body all ready).
A quick chat about the Ireland Republican Army at a rest area later and Nibbler and I roll into Cheyenne, which is smaller than I thought it would be. The night at the hotel is much appreciated by all involved.
Next: No more butt biting? Yes please!
To Be Continued
1 As it turns out, Wyoming isn't too keen on Biden's plan to create an EV charging infrastructure...

I had planned to go to Holiday World for about 2 months now, while I was visiting my cousins, and just 3 days ago I learned I would be going during Holiwood Nights. Naturally, I wouldn’t be there for the event, but it would be cool to talk with other enthusiasts and have the enhanced atmosphere.
So, we drove down to holiday world this morning, and unlike my Kentucky Kingdom visit, I got a good amount of rides on everything, not just the park’s best. I got in 15 minutes after park open, and headed to…
Legend x1 9.5/10 - 2 trains
This ride deserves so much more love. Great pacing, laterals, airtime, and speed, and one of my favorite settings on a coaster. I sadly only rode this once in the morning, because a piece of track broke off and it was closed for the rest of my visit, but I savored it.
I then went over to the waterpark, where I knocked out…
Wildebeest x1 9/10 - ~7 rafts
My first water coaster, and a great one. Lots of airtime, disorienting, and long too. Only con is slowing down through the turns and over hills, but that’s pretty minor.
Mammoth x1 10/10 ~ 4 rafts
This ride is like a combo of a great water coaster and a river rapids ride. Flies through the turns, airtime on the drops, and drenching splashes making the ride disorienting as well. Plus, it’s quite long. However, 4 rafts holding five people with a roughly 3-4 minute cycle time is a problem. Single rider line was my savior here.

• Cheetah Chase x2 9.5/10 - 4 rafts on both sides

This one was shorter than the other two water coasters, and had a bit less airtime, but the shockingly sustained and fast speed through the saucer turns and the racing aspect made up for it. You wouldn’t think it would matter, but ride up front if you can. Has more and better airtime than the middle. Additionally, I got a double ride because someone needed an extra person in their raft, so that was a nice bonus!
I then changed and went back over to the dry side, where I got my first ride on the coaster that was the main reason I came.
Voyage x3 10/10 - 2 trains
Everything you’ve heard about this ride is true. It’s relentless and incredibly diverse, and the terrain just makes it better. I prefer the front for the sense of speed and slightly improved forces, but no matter where you sit, this coaster is amazing. It’s my new #1.
It was about 90 degrees at this time, so I decided to relax and hunt- er, CALL some turkeys on…
Gobbler Getaway x1 8/10
This ride is charming yet doesn’t feel dated, has reactive targets, and a unique challenge due to the lack of a crosshair. Nice and long too, and the noise your caller makes is always a joy. My score was 1350, reply with yours!
Thunderbird x5 8/10 - 2 trains
I was able to have a mini-marathon on this B&M due to its high capacity and isolated location. The launch is surprisingly punchy, and the thunder effects make it even more climactic. It also has some surprisingly strong positives, enough to cause me to partially greyout on the loop, and I am not one who that happens to easily. However, it’s a bit short, and more problematicly, noticeably more bouncy than other wing coasters. I could see myself getting a headache after a few rides in an outside seat.
After that, I sadly had to start heading out and left by about 5:30 because I had an hour drive + the 1 hour time zone shift, and needed to get to my hotel on time.
However, I couldn’t leave without getting one more ride on…
The Raven x3 9/10 - 2 trains
This ride needs more love. The first drop is awesome and has some nice floater airtime in the back. I found the 5th drop to be very overrated, with only some strong floater airtime, but the laterals and insane pacing that follow it more than compensate. The crew is also very friendly. Dakota, if you’re reading this, thanks for the fistbump!
I loved my experience at this park, and would love to come back for Holiwood Nights. It seems like it would be a truly incredible experience, as this park is already great. Good food, free soda, extremely nice staff, amazing rides, what more could one want, especially from a family owned park! I’ll definitely be back.

This is the place for anyone to ask questions about Amsterdam. If you are a tourist visiting Amsterdam, you are moving to or recently arrived in Amsterdam, or you just have a basic question about life in Amsterdam and want some advice, this is the place to post your question. This post is refreshed every week on Sunday. Please feel free to repost in subsequent weeks.
READ THE WIKI FIRST. The people answering questions are locals who want to share the city they love with visitors, but only with people who make an effort. Read at least the Essential Tourist Information in our world-famous wiki before you ask a question. Otherwise, you may be told to go back and read it. The wiki is written by us, and updated when relevant. If the entries are old it's because nothing has changed.
HOTELS ARE EXPENSIVE AND WE DON'T HAVE GOOD ADVICE ON THEM. Because we live here, we don't know what the best hotels are. Amsterdam is one of the most touristed cities in the world and has the highest hotel prices in Europe. There really isn't a secret "cheap" solution.
TOURISTS CAN PURCHASE MARIJUANA, DESPITE WHAT YOU READ IN FOREIGN PRESS. Understand that the coffeeshops are just a tiny part of Amsterdam, so posts that treat Amsterdam like it's the Las Vegas of drugs sometimes get a negative response. We're happy to give you advice about coffeeshops and to discuss drug policy. The experts are our friends at /AmsterdamEnts, ask them the big questions.
WE DON'T HELP WITH ILLEGAL STUFF AND WILL BAN YOU FOR ASKING. We will not help you with things that are clearly illegal. Coffeeshops caught selling to minors get shut down and everyone loses their jobs. Authorities check for people smuggling marijuana out of the country. Hard drugs are illegal and so is asking for or selling them on Reddit.
WE DON'T ALLOW TICKET SALES OR TRADING. We do not allow selling, buying, or trading tickets on /Amsterdam due to the high rate of fraud. You should do everything on ticketswap.nl. We're aware that is difficult to get tickets to Anne Frank, van Gogh, etc. We have no solutions for you, sorry.
DOE AARDIG. There is Dutch directness and there is rudeness. The people coming here don't know how we do things, and are usually well-meaning people who just want to enjoy the city we love. Be kind to them. For the tourists and new residents, please remember that we are not Google; respect our time by doing some basic research first and then asking your questions like you're speaking to a real human who is volunteering to speak to you.
Here is what's on at the major venues this week.

Looking for a fun gal that likes to fuck. I need a nasty, naughty, slut to play with. Not looking for a good girl or someone that wants love making / vanilla sex.

Need a gal that loves getting her wet pussy licked and being a pillow princess, someone that enjoys getting face fucked and showing off her cock sucking skills. I want to tell you what a good slut you are, call you my whore, and let you know I own you. I will fuck you doggy while slapping your ass, like to choke and kiss, fuck hard and slow missionary while talking shit in your ears, and want to make you bounce on my cock while I suck on them titties, choke you, and thrust upwards in you telling you to take dick like a like a good slut. I want to make you squirt, cream all over my throbbing cock, wet tongue, and finger you until I make you taste yourself before sliding in you making you tell me how good it tastes and how much you love taking cock. Hopefully you like looking up with your mouth open to swallow a load or take a facial and bonus points if you are down to have your pussy filled deep with my nut.
I am real straight forward, don't play games, know how to have a good time, and love to fuck and get nasty. Kinky and fetish friendly. Into things like CNC, breeding, Bondage, using collars and toys, and I would even enjoy fucking you good with another friend or sharing you with another nasty girl.
Here looking for a good time. No drama or bs. Down to fuck and can meet a few times a month. I drive, can host, come to you, or get a hotel for us. Be 420 friendly, enjoy a drink, good vibes, and love taking dick and being a nasty gal with no judgement.
I am 180cm tall, 90kg, Chocolate skin. Uncut with a thick cock perfect to stretch all your holes, clean, dress well, and always smell fresh. I am a flirt, tease, love to touch, and like to get nasty in private.

Every site I look for ear stretchers above 12mm I can't find em. Every site seems to have this limit especially in shops in Houston where I live. Does anyone know where I can find any ?

As the title explains, I'm looking for some people to chat with for a couple weeks since I'm going to be going on a vacation and want to be able to pass the time.
A little about me, I am kinda introverted but will open up if we hit it off. Not too sure what to really say but I'm very nice, kinda nerdy, tall, dark blonde hair, blue eyes, and working on my weight. I like lots of types of music as long it has a decent beat that I can vibe with. Really like movies, but have to watch them with friends/family. I'm a dog person and love me some doggo pictures, but unfortunately don't have my own yet. I'm a gamer so I totally get it if you dont want to talk about it. No worries!
Send me a chat message on this first and we can move to discord at some point if you eventually want to voice chat!

Me: I think of two-pair as being an adjective of the type of hand, like "a two-pair hand" shortened to "two pair". Would that explain it, grammatically?
ChatGPT
Yes, you're absolutely correct! The term "two pair" can be seen as a compound adjective describing the hand. In this context, "two pair" is used as an adjective to describe a kind of poker hand, and this can account for its grammatical structure.
When we use compound adjectives (like "two-pair") before a noun (like "hand"), we often hyphenate them, but it's not uncommon for the hyphen to be dropped in everyday speech or even in writing, particularly in established phrases. In this case, the hyphen is often omitted and "two pair" has become the conventional way to describe this kind of hand in poker.
So, saying "a two-pair hand" is grammatically consistent with this explanation, but in most poker contexts, the word "hand" is dropped because it's understood implicitly. So players and dealers just say "two pair". This is an example of how language can evolve and be shaped by specific cultural or community contexts, like the world of poker.
Me: Can you give me any other examples from English where a compound adjective is not turned into a plural, analogous to this?
ChatGPT
Yes, English has a number of compound adjectives where the noun remains in singular form even when it logically refers to more than one. Here are a few examples:

1. Five-dollar bill: Despite referring to a bill worth five dollars, the word "dollar" stays singular. Similarly, we might say "a twenty-pound note" in the UK.
2. Four-star hotel: Hotels with a rating of four out of five stars are described as "four-star", not "four-stars".
3. Two-man team: Even if there are more than one man on the team, we use "man", not "men".
4. Three-piece suit: A suit with three components is called a "three-piece suit", not a "three-pieces suit".
5. Six-pack abs: When referring to well-defined abdominal muscles, we say "six-pack", not "six-packs".

In all these examples, the noun remains in its singular form as part of a compound adjective, which is quite analogous to the "two pair" example in poker.

...and it all seems like some sick joke, waiting to see the next big "climax". Each is more drastic than the last, as if life itself is trying to push me towards a mental break of my own.
I was never the most social type. I chose my friends early, kept them, and have maintained a few over the last decade or so. I can count my close friends and family on two hands, and that's the way I like it. But almost 9 years ago, one of my closest friends passed away after a long struggle with illness and addiction. He experienced a psychotic break due to amphetamine abuse, during which he experienced delusions and auditory hallucinations of his closest friends dying in torturous ways. His experience opened my eyes to another perspective to both drug abuse and the brain itself.
Fast-forward about five years, and I’m on the phone with my brother N. It’s late night, and he’s at his new apartment all alone. He hears my other brother B and his partner C (who live in a different state), saying terrible things about him in the hallway and he can’t believe they would fly such a distance just to torment him. I’m talking him through the experience, but he’s trying to snap photos of them from over the balcony, and I need to get off the phone and get in contact with somebody who can reach him faster than me.
Thank God my parents listened to me, and left their concert early to intervene. They drove him to a hospital, and after a few days, he came home. He got the hallucinations under control, but I still couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that I knew two relatively healthy young men who experienced these severe mental episodes. I just thought, “why does this keep happening to people around me?"
Of course, this is all before B.
I remember when C first reached out to us to explain the problems that B started experiencing. Prior to this, when he’d come to stay for a month, he exhibited manic and dissociated behaviors, but things were worse than we had seen. He was seeing visions in the skies, and feeling drawn to his higher purpose in the universe to a degree that surpassed earthly expectations. He would disappear in the middle of the night, converse deeply with strangers when compelled to do so, and lived in pure extravagance - despite his limited actual working hours.
After frustrating arguments with my husband about logistics and caring for my two baby girls (another stress entirely!) I ended up with two nights to go with my mother and try to take care of my eldest brother. We flew in on a Friday night, and once we checked into the hotel, we drove straight to his apartment.
The situation had already escalated prior to our arrival. My brother had already turned against his partner and his family. Since my mother made the mistake of defending them in her first minutes on the premises, he immediately turned against her. And so I went alone into his apartment, with the sole priority to gauge his mental state and determine just how “crazy” my brother had gone. My mom texted me from the outside, asking me continuously: “Should we call for help? How is he?”
Initially, I thought we could talk him into a hospital stay voluntarily - but anybody in a situation such as this might understand how difficult this can be. It’s no joke when Belle’s father is thrown into the back of a carriage and taken away: these situations are dangerous, and is there really any other way that they can go? My brother was unpredictable, and lashing out against those who wanted to help. He put a cigarette out on his arm, and carried a pair of scissors around in his pocket. He joked about the “devils” trying to keep him from being who he wanted to be, and to an extent, that may have been true. But in this moment, his stress and unhappiness had cultivated into a violent psychotic break that demanded professional intervention.
I don’t regret calling for help in this instance. I regret the fact that, at his age past 30, we had not drafted a written plan in case he needed this sort of medical intervention. In fact, there wasn’t any paperwork at all! As such, the police took my brother away, and he ended up in a shithole downtown for the homeless and forgotten - all because they could not share any information with us and we could not make any choices for him due to HIPAA, but he was not in the right mind to share information about his insurance or make any decisions for himself. And so the state took over, and he fell off of our radar. We drove from one police station to the next, from one hospital to another, but no luck,
B finally called my phone just before noon the next day. Thank goodness I had the same number since I turned 13 - it was the only one he remembered. The place they took him was a shithole - nothing like they promised, but what can you expect with an overloaded system like theirs? That just set the tone for the rest of our time, trying to get him in an outpatient program - trying to get him through an inpatient program - trying to get insurance to accept a program closer to us, or trying to find a program they’ll accept near home…
Life played out the way it did. There’s no right or wrong way anymore. This is just the way it happened, and nothing else will change it. In November of 2021, we realized my brother was sick. On May 31, 2022, he woke up and decided that he would leave us by any means necessary. That ended up being at a gas station pump in the middle of nowhere, in front of my father, who had the unfortunate job of trying to drive him to the hospital he liked in California.
And so my family began the “healing”(?) process. It took us four months to have a basic funeral, though it was just the close family and his ashes. C and his family flew out and spoke, and our closest friends supported us through the nightmare. C had already had some mental breakdowns of his own, but he was on medication now and his family seemed to be helping him through. We spent some time together, and he doted on my children, and delivered gifts from B that were intended for them. We took a rare photo together. I hugged him and told him to please, please stay strong for my family. My daughters loved their Uncle B, and he could keep his memory alive for them.
It was a hard and emotional time. I knew that B would want me to take care of his partner, no matter the drama between them at the time. I tried, with everything I had, to be there if he wanted me to be - but I was scared, and we are anxious people who value personal space. I didn’t want to come off too strong, but when he called me asking for permission to marry my brother in heaven, what could I do? I told him how much I loved him, and how much he already meant to me. I assured him that he was already my brother-in-law, that he had already been with my brother long past a common law marriage. Maybe that’s just the problem. Love is the strongest drug of all, isn’t it?
And so, less than a week and a half after that phone call, C went to find his soulmate through the same awful method of self-immolation. To his mercy, I heard that his soul passed much faster than that of my poor, beautiful brother. With an imagination like mine, it is not just the guilt… it’s just the whole fucking thing.
Well, if my circle is small, my living brother kept his even smaller. B and C were his best friends, and with them gone, I’m just impressed he has maintained any sanity at all. But now, as stress at work ramps up and his psychosis returns, all I can do is wait and see. This time is different: since I’m involved, he’s pulled away from me, and he won’t be as honest as he used to. His boss is listening in, there are cameras in the lightbulbs, and he’s been living on the “Truman Show” for a while now. He’s deactivated all social media to keep his boss from following him, and he’s currently been missing for 12 hours.
Everything feels hopeless. How much is one person supposed to take? I have three babies now, all aged 4 and under, and they need me to be strong. But I just feel so sad and broken all of the time. I had panic attacks before, but now? Am I doomed to follow the same path? I sleep okay, and I don’t abuse any medications, but god knows I’m a mess these days. I miss my family. I have no friends. My husband is working as hard as he can to help us.
I used to be able to count my circle with two hands. Now I’m down to one, and all the others have lost their mind and/or died. Why is this a thing now? How can I stay strong for my kids? I didn't know about this family curse until I was pregnant with my third... I don't know if I can keep watching this happen over and over again.

We meet Cheryl for the first time at the hotel when Johnny is telling Stevie, “ watch for Teds mom, she will be arriving soon, she’s a stunning woman”. Cheryl is standing right next to Johnny. She says it’s me Johnny. Johnny is confused, “ You don’t recognize me Johnny, I’ve lost 80 lbs since then. So how long ago did they meet? Last time he saw her, she was 80lbs heavier, and she looked stunning to Johnny? Ted meets Alexis for the first time in the diner. Ted meets Johnny but has no idea who he is or Johnny has never met Ted. Yet it sounds like Johnny and Cheryl know each other well. Wouldnt it be a small world to Johnny, that Ted, the son of a woman he met some time ago, is dating his daughter. Johnny and Moira have been married a long time, at this point, so when did Johnny and Cheryl meet and when?

tl;dr: wife asked about pride parades and I’m taking her; it’s my first pride event.
Hey everybody, sorry for the long post. Anyways, I’ve (28m) accepted my bisexuality for 10 years now, so 2023 is sort of a big bi-aversary for me (granted, it was begrudgingly at first, but I’ve done some growing since the dark days). Since starting this journey, I’ve met and married my (straight) wife (40f); we’re coming up on five years married this year. She’s never been phobic or close-minded of the community, but because we’re monogamous she has fallen into this habit of bi-erasure, which is frustrating (“are you really bi/does it matter if you’re bi if we’re married and monogamous?)
SO, about a month ago, she asked me about any pride festivals near us. Keep in mind, this is the first time she’s initiated a conversation anywhere close to my sexuality in YEARS, so it was a notable step. It’s not usually my scene as visibility isn’t exactly high on my list (my blue collar coworkers don’t really need to know about the bi guy working in a pipe mill. It’s just easier that way, the jokes write themselves and I don’t have the patience for it), but I think it would be really good to get my wife out and about to see and support it as an ally. I don’t want to necessarily be visible to the public, but I need to be visible to her.
This will be my first pride event I’ve ever attended, and granted, it is Houston, Texas, just to temper expectations. Any tips, tricks, or advice? Thanks again guys, gals, and everyone else!

Or anything else related to travelling!!
I will start! 😁
I bought a return ticket from Brussels Charleroi to Eilat Israel for €39,98!
Next ticket I bought is from Dusseldorf Weeze to Pula Croatia for €13,59 return!
How amazing! So cheap I couldn't believe it! I love to travel but I don't have much money. This way I can travel! The most expenses are the hotels or Airbnbs and parking at the airport! I don't want to stay in a form in a hostel but that would even make it more cheap!
Please share your experiences!
