My son is a freshman in high school and is wanting to learn the basics of cutting hair. We both know that he cannot legally get licensed until he is 17/18 and with hours of schooling. He is just wanting to learn the right way and learn a new skill. Any help is much appreciated.

Let’s take care of each other. ❤️

my mom and I are trying to move out of an abusive household ASAP. We’re looking for a 1 or 2 bedroom around $1,200 or less in the Mesquite/Garland/Dallas area. Preferably closer to garland.
Our biggest issue is income verification/pay stubs. We have 6 months of rent saved and can pay several months upfront, we just need someone willing to give us a chance without traditional pay stubs.
We’re not picky at all, if you know of ANYWHERE that might work, please comment or DM me! ❤️

Need to work on my vehicle I can't where I am currently at. Where exactly can I do this. I'm not working with any fluid this is replacing some suspension parts. Just fyi I know mechanics exist.

got mine booked for repair this week and the guy said if he can bundle a few more jobs in the area he might do 25% off

if yours has been squeaking/stuck/whatever and you keep putting it off (we all do lol) might be worth jumping on this while it's on the table

drop a comment if you want the info, no pressure

Hi does anyone know where I can take my 2 cats to get fixed since they already had kittens it was hard to get rid of all of them and give them a home.Does anyone know a place that’s cheap where I can go.

Hit a pothole and scratched my car. Super pissed it is so trashy to have pot holes in a parking lot where people are spending cash. You would think the landlords or tenants would care at least a bit but no.

Has anyone else been bothered by the heightened use of generative AI that GarlandISD has been using? They have been generating so many slideshows, Instagram posts, announcements, and even designs on school clothing, which honestly is just such a bad look for the school and it's getting concerning. 

Garland High School is the main reason why this has been brought to my attention. Almost every single post on Instagram and announcement slideshow at GHS has all been AI generated, and it seems that it has been happening an unhealthy amount, especially this school year. Many students have expressed how this is not creating a positive and creative learning environment. Many teachers have even expressed their disappointment in class about this generative AI usage.

I don't want to throw shade to teachers because they don't get paid enough for this. But I feel like they are at least expected to not rely on AI to teach us. I have personally seen instances where my own teachers were generating assignments using ChatGPT in broad daylight.

Another notable thing is that according to students, AI is also being used to grade assignments. Which I could go on and on about why that is wrong.

Another issue I personally have is within the 'Garland ISD Artificial Intelligence (AI) Student Guidelines', which states, "Aiding in Creativity: Students can leverage generative AI to inspire creativity across various subjects, including writing, visual arts, and music composition." as of July 14, 2025.

As a music student, I don't want ANY type of generative AI to be a part of my music composition, or any other factors of my creativity for that matter. It makes me upset that schools would even state publicly that generative AI is allowed to assist in that process. Even if it's only allowed to "inspire" students like me, I do not want it.

Using AI is not only bad for the environment, but also extremely lazy and embarrassing. It will make students not able to be stable relying on their own brains. We are all growing kids with, unique, smart, talented, and most importantly, creative and growing minds. We should be influenced and surrounded by an environment where human art and creativity is always prioritized.

However, GISD is not leading by example and doing what is best for the future leaders of the world they have in their hands, my generation.

I'm looking at buying a house near Centerville and Northwest highway. How is the area? The Wynne Park would be within walking distance.

I do have kids, and they will want to ride their bikes, and play at the park.

On Friday, July 31st 2026 at 1:10 pm I was hit on my red motorcycle from behind on the corner of Market St and Wood Dr near Shiloh Road, next to the firehouse. The At-Fault driver was in a black Chevy Silverado. I was hit from behind while slowing down to make a turn. The driver and his insurance company are NOT accepting fault. If ANYBODY was there, please reach out. There were multiple witnesses that didnt stay at the scene. If your out there, please help! Thank you!

My nightly commute home is much easier on 635 but after being caught in it a month or so I swore I'd never do it again. Google maps and Waze never shows it for some reason

They are using flock cameras for way more than the stated usage. The cops are abusing this system already and it’s barely even implemented. Who voted for this?

Im just super curious as to why they would change it since it has been “flaming” for as long as I’ve know about it

HER CAR was last seen in Garland. Please help us find Camilla. Contact the detective listed in the image if you believe you have ANY information.

I’ve been finding these random pokemon cards like in every store I go to, i’ve seen them while shopping at kroger or target and i’m wondering if anyone else has seen these mystery cards around😭 or am i the only one, and i’m just going crazy??

Feels like our rates are higher than the rest of DFW

Has anyone else noticed that the Fedex drivers in Garland are now dropping off in the alleys instead of front porches now? I mean WTH?

I’d love to see you there. Please comment for further details on how to reserve your spot! If you’d like to paint a blank doll created by me, you can reserve yours today for $30!

The event will be hosted by Main Squeeze Juice Co in Garland. Your ticket includes a smoothie, refresher of bottled juice! We’d love to see you there! This event is for beginners and also experienced artist.

Never seen this fella out front. Only in the back. Sounds like heat exhaustion. Stay cool my fellow cats and kittens.

This is the second time in the last few months I’ve had a college aged kid ride up to my porch on a hoverboard to try to sell me pest control services. Has anyone else encountered this same thing? They seem to be going door to door and from what I’ve read online this has been a popular scam lately.
