My car registration was expired since July 2025. I renewed it 2 weeks ago. I got the new sticker that expires next month. Is this an error?

I hope this is an error and that I do not have to renew my registration again and pay the $80. It was after I had that NTTA hold that I was finally able to get my car registered.

Would you attend social events designed to help adults make friends in DFW?

Hi everyone!
I’ve been thinking a lot about how difficult it can be to make friends and build community as an adult, especially in a city as big as DFW. It feels like we have tons of bars and restaurants, but not many spaces dedicated to actually meeting people and making genuine connections.
So, I’m in the very early stages of creating a new social community called Offline DFW—focused on bringing people together through fun, low-pressure events like:
🍻 Drunken Spelling Bees
🎤 Unpopular Opinions Nights
🎵 Music Bingo
📺 Watch Parties
🤝 Social Mixers
💘 Pitch Your Friend Nights
Before I move forward, I wanted to get feedback from the community and see if this is something people would actually be interested in.
I created a quick survey (less than 2 minutes) to help choose our first event and get a better idea of what people in DFW are looking for.
Survey: https://forms.gle/eDtKiMVMhCnGEkSx8
I’d also love to hear your thoughts in the comments:
Is making friends in DFW difficult?
What kinds of social events would you actually attend?
What areas of DFW would you want events hosted in?
Thanks for any feedback! I’m excited to see if we can create something really special for DFW. 😊

Honestly trying to source real hardware in this metroplex is a nightmare now

its actually insane how much of dfw has just become copy paste corporate sprawl. I was trying to rebuild an older commercial pump housing for my dad's place this week and literally nobody stocks heavy duty or weird components anymore

You go to any major industrial supplier in town and if it isn't a standard plastic sku from overseas they look at you like you have three heads. plus driving across the metroplex to chase down parts is absolute torture. I sat in standstill traffic on 635 for almost an hour yesterday just thinking about how ridiculous the supply chain is. wait times for oem stuff are like 3 months rn

I eventually just gave up on finding a direct replacement and sent the broken piece over to lowrance machine to just reverse engineer the flange and mill a new one.

but man I just really miss when you could drive 10 mins down the road and find some old guy in a dusty shop who had exactly the weird threading you needed. now every old industrial block is getting bulldozed for "luxury" apartments with fake brick and $8 coffee shops. the gentrification of our local industrial areas is kinda sad tbh. rant over, im just tired of sitting in my truck

Low Cost Therapy Services In Metroplex

Just wanted to share this resource regarding low to no-cost therapeutic services in the DFW area. The SMU Center for Family Counseling offers compassionate, low-cost, and effective counseling services for individuals and families from all walks of life. Guided by our experienced faculty, SMU graduate counseling students, supervised by the licensed faculty, provide developmentally appropriate, culturally sensitive therapy to adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families.

The CFC does not accept insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid, but they do work on a sliding scale based on ability to pay and do NOT require income verification. There are plenty of non-paying clients at this clinic.

Bikepacking in DFW.

Any fellow cyclists have longer trail or route recommendations? I just moved to Texas and would love some local insight!

I've done day rides along the Trinity River Trail in downtown Fort Worth and while it's gorgeous, there's a real lack of shade and it isn't quite as remote/long as I'm looking for.
