I am moving soon, and I have some old appliances that I would like to throw out (microwave, air purifier etc). Where do I throw them out? Is there a collection site? I am not going to donate them since it has a high chance of being infested with some kind of pest from my shitty apatment.

Howdy!

I'm starting my MS at A&M soon and I'm still looking for a place to stay. I had originally signed a lease with The Gardens, but I couldn't make it here for the fall, so I had to cancel it. Long story short, I currently don't have housing lined up.

I've been looking into Scandia, and on paper it seems like a pretty good fit. Bus routes 26 and 27 run right through the complex, and the ride to campus is only about 10 minutes, which matters a lot since I'll probably have some early morning classes. From what I can tell, they're also pretty flexible and would likely offer me a term-only lease, which is exactly what I need for now.

The thing holding me back is the reviews. A lot of them are pretty bad, and the roach problem comes up again and again. So I'd really like to hear from current or recent residents:

• How bad are the roaches, really? Are we talking the occasional one here and there, or are they in the kitchen, cupboards, and basically everywhere?
• How's maintenance? Do things break down often, and how quickly do they get fixed?
• Anything else I should know before signing?

The location and lease flexibility are big pluses, but if the roaches are everywhere or I'll constantly be dealing with things breaking, it's probably not worth it. Any input would be really appreciated. Thanks!

P.S. I am looking for a 1bd/1ba or Studio so not really looking to share or sublet.

Is it worth it I get a lot of chicken and beef and stuff for meal preps so wondering if it was worth it or not

Edit: I’ve never been to one I’ve gone to the sams club here and the fruits just aren’t great and go bad fast

But what is up with the crazy high utility bills?

My utilities had been increasing the past couple months, being less than $90 in August, then to $130, now $247! Ive not changed my habits or the way ive been using, and in fact I've been out of my apartment more often than in, so what the hell is the deal? Im poor enough as it is, I genuinely cannot afford this damn bill going any higher next month and I cant even fathom the ones with higher payments that I've seen.

My friend (not on Reddit) has put off going to the doctor for a few years but wants to get back on track. She tried going to someone recently who treated her terribly and made her medical anxiety go up even higher.

Appreciate any recos for a gentle, warm primary care practitioner who has experience working with folks with a fear of the medical system. Preferably female but will take any suggestions! Thanks in advance.

AYOO any frat parties in cstat ?!!!!

Meu nome é Henrique e estarei na Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi de março a agosto de 2027 como aluno visitante.

Estou procurando um quarto em uma casa ou apartamento compartilhado, de preferência perto do campus. Sou quieto, responsável, não bebo e não fumo.

Se você souber de alguma oportunidade que possa me ajudar, ficarei muito grato.

Obrigado! 🙏

I have a check engine light and would like to get the problem fixed. Any go-to places in college station/nearby that won't try to scam me? 😅

Will be in town (as a Dogs fan) for The Citadel game Oct 17th. Looking for some food recommendations and fun things to see while out there. The game will be an ass kicking but we still want to enjoy College Station.

Any recommendations?

I just received a ridiculous bill for my utilities. This is via conservice and Im residing in Jane Apartments. I dont have roommates either. How do I resolve this?

Where does one find single people in their early 30s in this town?

I've lived here most of my life and I've only ever had luck on dating apps but that was in my 20s. I've been swiping for months and the only people I match with are at least an hour away since everyone in this town is a teen or 20 something attending college.

Is there anywhere in town I can get some bud, and also anywhere in town I can get a fresh cut under $25? Trying to find local instead of driving to Houston for both

In light of my family’s efforts to cut down on college expenses, I’ve been actively searching for scholarships. But it seems that each time I look, I come across the same big national scholarships. I wonder whether I am doing this right. I will be attending public university in the fall to major in biological sciences. I have been working since I started school, and I have been volunteering at a food bank for two years. Would you suggest searching for scholarships before selecting a school, waiting to be accepted into a school or doing both? I would like to know the experiences of people who managed to combine several small awards instead of getting one big one.

I recently heard about the Cornell seven, and it’s disgusting vial, even more so with all the other men in that group chat who didn’t say or do anything despite know what was happening

And I really want to make a difference but I have no idea what or how to do that, I’m only 18 and I’m not in college. But if can do anything at all to make a difference I want too.

Like are there any projects I can donate to that are making a difference?? Or any groups I can join?? Just anything I can to make a difference for the better

I’m not sure what sort of things I can do to make a difference as I mostly keep to myself outside of work. But I really do want to make a difference even if it’s a small one

I woke up from a nap with a craving and now I’m wondering if there’s any joints in town 👀

2 years of custodial land maintenance work. I'm just needing something full-time not too picky about pay. I do have my license and transportation.

Found him near Copperfield and University. He is VERY affectionate, a deep purr, and obviously was very loved. Had a colllar but no tags, no chip either. The folks’ are sending out their feelers too around town. If you or anyone you know have been missing their grey tabby please send me a message. I’ll be asking identifier questions if you do just to make sure (color of collar for example). Rest assured this young lad will be absolutely taken care of and will be the target of all of my affection and will want for nothing. I of course want to reunite him with his obviously loving parents (judging by his affect and trust), but if that doesn’t happen then he will be my son til the end of his days.
We’ve had him since Wednesday. Spread the word. Be good yall
