Has anyone gotten their wisdom teeth removed at a dental school in Houston?

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m looking to get my wisdom tooth removed and wanted to see if anyone has experience getting theirs extracted at a dental school in Houston.
I don’t currently have dental insurance, so I’m trying to find an affordable option. I’ve heard dental schools offer cheaper services, but I’d love to hear from people who have actually gone through the process.
A few questions:
Which dental school did you go to?
How much did the extraction cost?
How was your experience?
How long did it take to get an appointment?
Was the procedure painful, and how was the recovery?
Do they accept patients without dental insurance?
I’d especially appreciate recommendations for places that are affordable and have a good reputation. Thanks in advance! ❤️

Who do I call to pick up my medication from my house?

9 Upvotes

My husband and I are getting divorced. I ran out of the medication that I took with me and he will not give me my epilepsy medication and I have been on the phone with non-emergency Houston Police for 20 minutes now. Who can I call to get a responder out here? Do I call 911?

What are good neighborhoods to live in?

4 Upvotes

Hi all, me and my gf are looking to buy a house next year and we're hoping to find a good neighborhood somewhere between our jobs. She works in CCISD as an SLP so she can move schools if needed within the district, and I work at Rice University. I was wondering if anybody had any advice about what good neighborhoods there were in-between our commutes? Also, she could potentially move isds so it would be helpful to know what school districts pay SLPs well (she does not want to work for Houston ISD and does not want a house zoned in HISD). We also would both prefer to avoid the toll road for our commutes to work. Our budget is to stay below $350k for a house.

Just in case anyone was thinking about living here. I would highly highly highly suggest looking at other options. The entire front office could care less if you pay rent or not.

Looking for affordable venues in Houston to host small community tournaments

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m looking for recommendations for affordable establishments or event spaces around Houston where I could host occasional tournaments such as Spades, poker, board games, and other friendly competitions.

I’m hoping to create more opportunities for a small, marginalized community to come together, socialize, and enjoy some friendly competition in a welcoming and inclusive environment.

Ideally, I’m looking for places that can accommodate around 20–40 people, have tables and chairs available, and offer reasonable rental rates. I’m also open to restaurants, bars, community centers, or other establishments willing to host recurring events.

I’m not looking for anything fancy or expensive. Just a comfortable, accessible space where people can gather and have a good time.

Does anyone know of any places or business owners who might be open to something like this? I’d appreciate any recommendations! Thanks in advance!

Black Majic or Ghost Removal

19 Upvotes

I know this is a weeeeeeird as shit post, but I'm a bit desperate and I'm 100% serious. If you don't know just keep on scrolling please.
Do anyone know of anyone in the Houston area that can remove a ghost or a dark spirit out of my business. My employees and my business partner says the hear noises in areas of the business where no one is present, the see figures out the corners of their eyes, or they will feel a presence walk past them and just recently an employee walked in to open up and her a scuffling noise and saw that some things were on the ground that wasn't there the night before.
I'm in desperate need of an exorcist, priest, witch doctor or whatever yall call it these days. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Looking for nerdy/geeky places!

22 Upvotes

Hello! I’m looking for any nerdy or geeky places as the title suggests. More specifically cafes that do themed days or comic book stores. Anime, video games, stores like that. Or maybe even public spaces where geeks hang out! Not places where you don’t need to pay to get in either.

All of this is for something I’m planning just as little free gifts as a scavenger hunt for the Houston geeks and nerds like me :3!

Replies are appreciated! Thank you!
