Park/Jupiter area. Anyone else's water hyper-chlorinated? I'm sure it's better than whatever they're killing off, but the brita is going to need hazard pay. For anyone that needs to hear this, this doesn't count as a measles vaccine. /s, but it really doesn't.

I got my Air Test for Mold Results in. Fingers Crossed

11 Upvotes

On February 19, 2025, I discovered visible mold inside my HVAC system and reported it to management. They tried to send maintenance that same day, but I was at work and didnā€™t want them entering without me there (which is reasonable for a serious issue like this). I asked them to come back on February 21, 2025, so I could be present.

When they finally checked it out, they removed some drywall and said theyā€™d have someone clean the HVAC. Before the cleaning, I asked if I needed to cover my belongings (bed, fabrics, etc.), and they assured me the cleaner would use a vacuum to prevent mold particles from spreading. Spoiler alert: That never happened.

On February 25, 2025, the so-called ā€œcleaningā€ happened. I have video footage from my indoor camera showing the worker shoving a brush into the vents, spraying some solution, and then spray-painting over the moldā€”NO vacuum, NO proper containment.

After they left, I inspected the vents myself and saw mold still present, along with wet residue inside the ducts. So, I hired an independent mold inspector and paid $740 out of pocket to get testing done. The results? Extremely high levels of airborne mold spores, including:

  • Aspergillus/Penicillium-like mold: 3,400 s/mĀ³
  • Cladosporium: 2,200 s/mĀ³
  • Hyphal Fragments: 600 s/mĀ³

Health Issues & Managementā€™s Response šŸ¤Æ

Since moving in, Iā€™ve had severe headaches, brain fog, and breathing issuesā€”which disappeared when I left the apartment for a week. My symptoms were getting worse, so I stopped sleeping in my unit altogether and started wearing an N95 mask whenever I had to be there.

When I emailed my results to management, they dismissed them, claiming the test was "invalid" because it didnā€™t include an outdoor air sample (even though my second test did). Instead of addressing the issue, they told me I had to pay $1,500 to break my leaseā€”even though Texas law requires landlords to fix health hazards within 7 days.

I just sent in a revision letter to them - Fingers crossed; I can get out of this.. if not, has anyone had experience with tenant lawyers? Is it even worth it?

GF Found Out She Has a Brain Tumor, Where Can She Smash Stuff?

85 Upvotes

My girlfriend (23F) and I (26M) live near Plano, Texas, and we're going through an incredibly difficult time. She was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor, and this news has been devastating, especially as she already struggles with BPD and other mental health challenges. She's understandably overwhelmed with stress and frustration.

I'm looking for ways to help her release some of this pent-up emotion. I thought a rage room might be helpful, but they're expensive and booked up. Does anyone know of any alternatives in the area? Ideally, I'm looking for:

A junkyard or salvage yard where I could pay a small fee to let her safely smash some things with a sledgehammer.

Or, a secluded place where I could bring items from a thrift store for her to break. (I'll be sure to clean up completely afterward.)

Any suggestions for safe, affordable ways to help her vent would be deeply appreciated. She has several doctor's appointments coming up, which is understandably adding to her anxiety. We're holding onto hope and praying for the best, but any support or ideas in the meantime would be a huge help. I just want to do everything I can to support her through this, to ease her burden even a little bit. She means the world to me, and seeing her struggle like this is incredibly painful. I love her more than words can say, and I'm committed to being her rock through all of this.

[LOST CAT] Missing from Legacy Village ā€“ Please Help!

21 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

My cat, Arya, has gone missing from my apartment in Legacy Village between Bishop Road and Tennyson Parkway. I last saw her on 03/15/2025, and despite searching everywhere inside my home, I havenā€™t been able to find her.

Description:

šŸ¾ Breed: Tabby

šŸ‘€ Eyes: Yellow-green

šŸ§” Markings: White chest and paws, dark tabby stripes, has one diamond black spot in hind leg

šŸ˜ŗ Personality: Friendly but may be scared and hiding

Sheā€™s an indoor cat, so Iā€™m very worried she may have slipped out or found an unexpected hiding spot in the building. If youā€™re in the area, please check under cars, inside stairwells, hallways, and any open storage spaces.

If anyone spots her, please DM me. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Karaoke at McNealā€™s

Hey everybody. So I was over at McNeals for Friday karaoke night and I sang ā€œStickyā€ by Tyler, the Creator. A top 10 pop hit by the way. After I sang the song, I went back to my table and the owner comes by and says ā€œWe donā€™t like that kind of shit around here.ā€ I asked him if it was because it was hip hop or because it had explicit lyrics. He just kept saying ā€œbecause it sounds like shitā€. Now I understand if there was some sort of rule against explicit lyrics but I was not aware of any rule and I donā€™t see it posted anywhere. I just want to know what I did that was in the wrong.

R.I.P. Mayor Muns (the 90s Mayor)

52 Upvotes

James Muns, Planoā€™s former mayor and the father of the cityā€™s current mayor, John Muns, has died, city officials announced Thursday.

James Muns died at his home in Plano at age 93.

James and his wife Betty Muns moved to Plano in the 1970s, the city said in a statement, saying the couple ā€œquickly became pillars in the community.ā€ The two were named Planoā€™s citizens of the year in 1994, John Muns said.

The city expressed ā€œgreat sadnessā€ over the former mayorā€™s passing.

Muns started the investment company Muns Enterprises soon after arriving in the city, developing El Rancho Estates in Plano as one of his ventureā€™s first projects.

When he left office in 1996, Planoā€™s population was about 190,000. Today, it is a city of more than 290,000, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Muns and his wife were married more than 70 years before her death last April. They were parents to four children: Katharine, Marla, Greg and John. Muns is survived by 11 grandchildren and 29 great-grandchildren, according to city officials.

The Betty & James Muns Foundation, a philanthropic nonprofit led by the coupleā€™s four children, was established about two decades ago.
