[] | 2024-03-13T07:33:40 | null | 2024-03-15T00:00:00 | Top Drawer Thrift gets their second wind in new North Loop location opening Friday | https%3A%2F%2Fwww.austinchronicle.com%2Fcolumns%2F2024-03-15%2Fqmmunity-the-thrift-store-we-adore%2F.json | en | null | In 1993, at what sales manager and social media director Ben Zimmerman called “some of the worst times in the history of HIV and AIDS,” housing advocate org Project Transitions was in need. Their program for HIV hospice, aka Doug’s House, needed funding, but they weren’t sure where to find it.
“As many a great idea does,” Zimmerman relayed over email, “it all began over a conversation at [a] local gay bar in the wee hours of the morning.” Two PT founding members decided over tequila shots that, with the org’s fairly roomy admin office on Burnet and an excess of donations from kind folks already piling up, all signs pointed toward starting a thrift store. There began Top Drawer Thrift, with its signature chest of drawers on the facade like a beacon to deal-hunters and kitsch-queens. “We thrived [on Burnet] and built a large network of donors, volunteers and supporters over the next three decades,” Zimmerman said. “Our quirky and loving take on life in the face of such sorrow seemed to be something that our community longed for.” In his eyes, Top Drawer irrevocably molded Burnet Road into its current cool stature – to Drawer’s own detriment. “The neighborhood grew up around us,” he said. “New businesses moved in and eventually we priced ourselves right out.”
After 30 years in their Burnet digs, rising rent drove Top Drawer to find a new home. Ultimately they landed within the North Loop neighborhood, right on the corner flush with Airport. The new space required a ton of work. “Without a doubt the experience of rebuilding has been fraught with hurdles, speedbumps and stubbed toes,” Zimmerman said. “All with the watchful eye of city of Austin making sure that everything was done just right.” Throughout the process, however, was community support compiled through various fundraisers by other local businesses, Eastside Pop Up-partnered markets, and a “Tiny Top Drawer” assembled at the location’s partially finished frontway with makeshift walls and string lights. “We missed our people, our mission still needed us, and we needed to spread love,” Zimmerman recalled. “And with a lot of hard work and a little Top Drawer Magic, we did just that. We found a way to continue to spread love if even from our parking lot and front doorway.”
Even with a new face, Zimmerman said that Top Drawer’s spirit remains intact within its new body. As a thrift shop, they’re no strangers to change – although he does admit this redux is possibly their biggest one yet. “Our backs might be a little weaker but our hearts are still strong,” he said. “Our family is still together and our community still thrives.” Opening day for the new Top Drawer will be March 15 from 11am to 5pm, and they’ll be ready for both shopping and donations. “There is no stopping us now,” Zimmerman said. “The donations of amazing items are coming in, the shop is filling with beautiful things, and we are almost ready for our big day.”

The sometimes mournful, sometimes jubilant self-titled project serves as an alt.country time capsule of a young group navigating their local Austin/San Marcos scene. Citing the tiresome balancing act of releasing music as both work and art, the Happen Twice signees announced their choice to take a step back from self-promotion. But first, lead vocalist Josef – alongside bandmates Jonah Brown, Coy Hollar, James Caton, and John Ziola – resolve to have some freewheeling fun. Tone-setting opener "Cowboy Therapy" draws inspiration from Eighties monster truck derbies, while upbeat "Animal Habits" wrestles wry humor out of existential dread: "Consciousness is giving me way too many tests/ I’d rather be drunk without purpose." To saloon-ready piano lines, pedal steel sendoff "Sasha" transforms small-town fatigue ("How many times must I drive this road?") into forward-facing optimism ("Change is something that I thought I’d never find"), marking one chapter's end and another's beginning for the band. Farewell for now, Eli Josef, and thanks for the good times.

A minor key, Tennessee Two rhythm, chanting vocals, and fuzzed-out twang set the stage for the revenge-lusting “I’m Going to Heaven,” while “One Day at a Time” bops along like a recently discovered piece of jazz hokum. The plainspoken sadness of “Garden of Leaving” floats appropriately in a sparsely populated acoustic setting, while “Stray Dog” cranks the amps and puts Kiranos’ folk on thudding blast. Introspective singles “The Mechanic” and “Cannibal Within” focus on the lyrics, letting his thoughtfully composed libretto ride minimalist arrangements that spotlight his powerful voice. The songs themselves avoid bombast with subtle literary allusions and calmly stated lyrical twists. Kiranos offsets his understated craft with full-throated, unbridled vocal performances that slam his heart on your sleeve and nail it there.

It was the latest anticlimax in what has been – at best – a so-so start to MLS life for the nascent football club. On the pitch, that is.
Off the pitch, the club is one of American soccer’s brightest success stories. Austin FC boasts the league’s longest active sellout streak and routinely delivers one of the loudest, most engaged home crowds in the nation. The club’s oak tree crest is ubiquitous around Austin, in bars, on hats, on car bumpers. Where Austin FC as a soccer team has wavered, Austin FC as a brand has thrived.
“We could have created a brand that would have [just] resonated with the converted soccer fans in this city, but by trying to make sure that this club honored all of Austin and tried to be a flag bearer for Austin, that opened us up to a much larger range of people,” James Ruth, Austin FC’s first head of marketing and current chief marketing officer of the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers, told the Chronicle.
Ruth, who was back in Austin Monday to appear on the SXSW featured session From Goals to Touchdowns: Cultivating Brands Across Continents, is arguably the man most responsible for establishing Austin FC as one of the most popular and powerful brands – sports or otherwise – in Central Texas.
Originally hailing from the college football haven of Lincoln, Neb., Ruth found himself so moved by the drama and thrill of the 2010 FIFA World Cup that he left a career in investment banking in favor of a marketing gig at the MLS league office in New York City.
When MLS tabbed Austin for expansion in 2019, Ruth’s eyes lit up. An SMU alumnus who took “every excuse I could be down in Austin” during his undergrad days, he presented club owner Anthony Precourt with a vision of how he would, if given the opportunity, launch the ATXFC brand in an authentic way that would resonate with the Austin community.
At the center of that pitch was another member of the club’s ownership group: self-proclaimed “Minister of Culture,” Matthew McConaughey.
“Matthew is like the cultural laureate of Austin, right? He lives and breathes this,” Ruth said. “He was always down for that conversation, and he was always down to have it from a perspective of like, what is the soul of the city?”
Those conversations centered around everything from jersey design to local partnerships to the club’s iconic “Verde Listos” refrain, which inspired one of the club’s earliest successful marketing initiatives.
“We found people that we thought were uniquely representative of all the different pieces of Austin and said that they were 'Verde.’ People that weren’t necessarily like the token Austin celebs, but they were absolutely emblematic of what makes Austin cool,” Ruth said.
That campaign and others like it proved successful enough to propel Ruth to Tampa last summer, where he now holds one of just 32 coveted roles spearheading marketing for an NFL franchise.
“When I told my team at Austin FC that I was going to the NFL, it’s like it was going to the dark side. You spend a lot of time playing the challenger, and the 800-pound gorilla is the NFL,” he said. “But it was an opportunity for me to try something new ..., People look to the Bucs as a representation of Tampa, but I think we can go even farther in terms of how we represent Tampa off the field. And that’s very much akin to how we looked at things from an Austin FC perspective.”

“Ever since I learned to appreciate nature, I’ve become kinder to myself,” she says. “If you’re hiking and it starts raining, you’re like, 'Okay, this just happens.’ You learn how to cope with it.
“I was living so out of rhythm with everything before, but now I feel like I’m able to solve everything in life just by comparing it with what I see outside. It’s just beautiful, and I think we all need that.”
“I think we have a knack for taking Western influences and making them our own. We kind of make it a bit more complex than it needs to be.” – Daniel Borces
Fittingly, Subsonic Eye’s 2021 record Nature of Things formed a love letter to the outdoors fueled by climate anxiety. Then, the indie rock quintet explored these themes with a more optimistic slant on fourth album All Around You, released via Topshelf Records last September. Managing a confident drawl on the pressures of early adulthood (“J-O-B”) and endless corporate slog (“Machine”), Wahidah ultimately finds solace in her surroundings on closer “Everything.”
There, she sings: “Watching the gold bathe the birds/ Bringing song into cities/ Bringing luxury in our souls.” Mirroring Wahidah’s poise, the almost-9-year-old band strays from the dreamy leanings of earlier work, further rooting themselves in raw, fuzzy guitar interplay – like a brighter, mathy Sonic Youth.
“I really dig their whole sound, so whenever I write the demos, they sound like Sonic Youth,” says guitarist Daniel Borces. “The rest of the band are not as into them as I am, so, naturally, our sound kind of takes shape in its own way. I feel like we really took their melodic stuff and made our own thing out of it.”
SXSW hosts Subsonic Eye’s first-ever gigs in Austin, but also marks the third consecutive year that they’re taking time off work to play shows almost 10,000 miles across the world. Borces, who has seen fans sporting other Singaporean bands’ merch at their U.S. shows, says the overseas achievement still feels surreal. They’ll be the island’s only representatives on Jaded’s all-Asian FRIENDS: FOREVER lineup at Empire, following Singapore band Sobs’ participation last year.
“It’s really crazy to see that people are genuine fans of Singaporean music,” says Borces. “I think we have a knack for taking Western influences and making them our own. We kind of make it a bit more complex than it needs to be.”
On his home country, he theorizes: “Maybe that’s why there are so many math rock bands here.”

[] | 2024-03-13T07:36:21 | null | 2024-03-15T00:00:00 | When state withheld death data, advocate pushed back | https%3A%2F%2Fwww.austinchronicle.com%2Fnews%2F2024-03-15%2Fthe-texas-task-force-that-reviews-pregnancy-related-deaths-is-losing-its-sole-advocate-position%2F.json | en | null | In September 2022, just three months after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and two months before the midterm that would pit Gov. Greg Abbott against Beto O’Rourke, the state of Texas decided to delay publication of a report on pregnancy-related deaths.
Nakeenya Wilson was outspoken about the ramifications of that decision, urging the state to publish the report. As a community advocate and member of the Texas task force that contributes to the report, she was quoted in the first news story about the delay, saying, “we run the risk of disenfranchising some of the most vulnerable in our state.” Later that week she told The Texas Tribune, “When we bury data, we are dishonorably burying each and every woman that we lost.”
Now, though Wilson is only halfway through a six-year term on the Maternal Mortality and Morbidity Review Committee (MMMRC), she may be removed from it. A law passed last legislative session added new seats to the committee for doctors – to the delight of lawmakers on both ends of the political spectrum – but a late-in-the-game edit also changed the description of Wilson’s seat on the committee. The “community advocate” role is now for a “community member” with experience in a “health care field.” The new language is vague, but she fears it was created partly so she could be booted from the task force.
Wilson was required to reapply for a seat on the committee this fall and doesn’t know when she’ll hear back about her removal or selection. The MMMRC will meet Friday, March 22. She hopes to learn more then.
Dying Moms and Delayed Data
Texas’ high maternal mortality rate has been a persistent problem. The state’s maternal mortality rate more than doubled between 1999 and 2019, per a study published last year.
After a dramatic increase in reported maternal deaths in the early 2010s, the state’s MMMRC started its work in 2014 with the purpose of shedding light on pregnancy-related deaths in the state. This committee doesn’t just analyze data – the group breaks into subcommittees and reviews the case of each Texan who dies during or shortly after pregnancy in a given year. Together, they determine whether pregnancy played a part in each case and whether deaths might have been prevented.
“Doctors are trained, and they deal with hard things like this a lot. But I’ve seen more tears from doctors in the time that I’ve been on this committee than I could ever have imagined,” Wilson told the Chronicle.
Wilson has cried plenty, too. She sees herself in many of the people whose deaths they review. She describes herself as a “near-miss” because of the traumatic birth of her son. When the case they’re reviewing is missing information, or doesn’t include perspective from the dead mother’s family members, Wilson said her firsthand experience helps the committee look in the right places. “Because I’ve been there, I know,” she said. “I’ve seen lots of situations where women voiced being in pain or having specific symptoms, and they were dismissed.”
Every two years, the committee puts out a new report capped off with a list of general recommendations.
But the last time the state’s biannual review of maternal deaths was scheduled to publish, it didn’t on time. The report, slotted for Sept. 1, 2022, looked at cases from 2019, and it would reveal some disturbing facts: Among them, that about nine in 10 pregnancy-related deaths in Texas were preventable, that discrimination contributed to more than one in 10, and that about one in three were violent (and most of those were caused by firearms).
That September The Houston Chronicle broke the news that the Texas Department of State Health Services was planning to delay publishing the report until after the midterms and 2023 legislative session, and some lawmakers suggested the delay was politically motivated.
In early November, when the report still hadn’t been published and the session was two months away, Wilson worked with the Texas Women’s Health Caucus to organize a rally at the Capitol on Día de Los Muertos to spotlight the hold up. “Nakeenya’s work was instrumental in ensuring that there was enough press coverage and political pressure to get that report released in a timely fashion,” said state Rep. Donna Howard, who chairs the Women’s Health Caucus.
A few days later, the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine threatened to sue. Their attorneys from Democracy Forward wrote to the state, saying withholding the data was illegal and the medical society’s 5,500 members, including nearly 450 physicians in Texas, needed the information immediately. The report was ultimately published the following month, in December 2022, before the legislative session.
“One of the key champions of efforts to ensure that people in the state of Texas and our lawmakers had access to that data was Nakeenya,” said Skye Perryman, a lawyer who heads Democracy Forward. “We definitely saw her leadership at that time.”
One of the MMMRC’s recommendations in the report was to provide new moms with health insurance. Rep. Howard believes the report’s publication prior to the legislative session was a critical factor in lawmakers approving an expansion of Medicaid coverage to moms 12 months postpartum (in House Bill 12).
Changing the Task Force
The new law that has Wilson worried didn’t just affect her role. Its primary purpose was to expand the committee. The version of the bill that the House approved in April 2023 added to the MMMRC one more community advocate role identical to Wilson’s and three new seats for physicians with specific specialties (anesthesiology, cardiology, and oncology).
The version that ultimately passed the Senate, though, changed the definition of the two community roles, replacing the phrase “community advocate” with “community member,” and adding that people in the role must come from “a relevant health care field, including a field involving the analysis of health care data.”
“My concern about the changing of requirements for the community position from 'community advocate’ to 'community member’ is that we run the risk of silencing community voice and those who are most impacted who are truly not connected to medical systems,” Wilson said. “That eye is critical. You know, when we’re reviewing cases, it helps us to see a perspective that is extremely valuable.”
The bill, HB 852, was authored by state Reps. Shawn Thierry, D-Houston, and Tom Oliverson, R-Cypress, and sponsored by state Sen. Lois Kolkhorst, R-Brenham, who has been a leader guiding maternal health policy in the state. In 2017 she authored a bill to keep the MMMRC operating. Kolkhorst consistently opposes abortion access, while working to expand mothers’ health care in general. In 2021 she authored the bill signed by Gov. Abbott to expand Medicaid coverage to moms six months postpartum, and, when the state did not implement that six-month expansion, she sponsored HB 12 to provide new moms with a year of coverage.
“I believe that the overall changes to the MMMRC are positive and will result in a more well-rounded review of maternal death cases in Texas,” Rep. Howard said. “However it’s unfortunate that the bill eliminated the community advocate position because that person was instrumental in holding the MMMRC accountable and providing the committee with an honest perspective driven by lived experience.” | www.austinchronicle.com | The Texas Task Force That Reviews Pregnancy-Related Deaths Is Losing Its Sole Advocate Position | null | null | https://www.austinchronicle.com/news/2024-03-15/the-texas-task-force-that-reviews-pregnancy-related-deaths-is-losing-its-sole-advocate-position/ |

There are six such pairings at this year’s South by Southwest, where their debut feature Birdeater received its international debut on Saturday. All such power-sharing arrangements must find their own cadence and divisions of responsibility: For their psychedelic relationship thriller about a bachelor party gone wrong, Clark became the main point person for department heads, while Weir was more likely to talk to the cast. However, everything came down to preparation. Weir credited extensive preproduction conversations for getting them on the same wavelength, “So if anyone came to either of us with a question they’d get the same answer.”
Preparation is everything, but, as Joe Louis said, everyone has a plan until they’ve been hit, and nature decided to sucker-punch Birdeater. According to Clark, on set they quickly learned an important lesson: “Weather matters.”
Being caught off-guard by nature provided a certain symmetry between the film and the filming. Birdeater follows Louie (Mackenzie Fearnley) into the literal and emotional wilds when he invites his fiancée, Irene (Shabana Azeez), to his bucks party. Equally, the great outdoors seemed to have it in for the production.
Filming for the low-budget indie had already been delayed by COVID, but when production started in remote St. Albans in New South Wales in November of 2021, apocalyptic storms brought chaos to the set. The pair desperately tried to keep going, applying what Weir called “Band-Aid solutions.” When the long dirt road to set turned to mud, “we had to hire a bunch of four-wheel drives to get people back and forth.” There was a river to cross too, “so we bought gumboots for everyone. But the water kept rising, so we had to get waders, and the waders weren’t working anymore, so we built a makeshift ferry out of a gate on the property and some stand-up paddleboards.”
With those extra costs burning through the budget, half the cast and crew sick, and nature seemingly against them (“someone discovered a python on the set,” Weir recalled), the pair decided to cut the planned four weeks of location shooting short, wring out their socks, pack their soaked belongings, and head home. They briefly contemplated just editing what they had into some shape, but instead chose to finish what they started. At that point, Clark said, “It became about setting a date and powering towards it, and hoping that the momentum would swell underneath us, and funding would suddenly arrive.”
Luckily, that funding did arrive, and so in May 2022 they returned for two more weeks of filming. After getting flooded out first time around, and with the waters still high, the duo were terrified of a second soaking and so built a shanty town of lean-tos and shacks to protect the set and equipment. However, after all that preparation, Clark said, “It only rained once or twice. But once you’re aware of how much the weather can ruin your entire film, you’re on edge.”
Even with the much more clement climate, the rain could still catch them off guard. There’s a pivotal dinner scene in a barn, and by coincidence they filmed it on one of the few rainy days. When the downpour started the set was covered, but deafening. “It was a tin roof,” Clark said, “and that was one of the times that sound design saved us. They could just pick a frequency and just cancel it out.”

For a few weeks in November, the only large stand of bigtooth maples in Central Texas put on a colorful display that attracts hordes of leaf peepers. The other 52 weeks of the year it’s a quiet, heavily wooded canyon cut by the Sabinal River and laced with hiking trails.
Of the 89 state parks, six are classified as natural areas. State natural areas (such as Lost Maples and Enchanted Rock) preserve areas with outstanding natural features. The emphasis is on protecting those resources, not on recreation.
Because of the lack of recreational facilities, Lost Maples doesn’t attract large crowds. That’s all the better for those willing to make the trek to this remote park.
The campground has 30 campsites around a field that feels like it is in a bowl surrounded by mountains. Each site has a covered picnic table, fire pit, electricity, and water. The campground is popular with motorcyclists who come to explore the twisting and scenic roads around Leakey, 19 miles from the park.
More adventuresome campers can hike to secluded primitive campsites deep in the woods.
When the leaves aren’t popping, the more than 10 miles of hiking trails are the park’s primary activity. The rocky paths cross the Sabinal River several times before climbing scenic cliffs. With its headwaters just outside of the park, this part of the river is more of a brook.
Not to be missed on the East Trail is “Monkey Rock.” About a mile hike from the trailhead, the limestone outcrop looks surprisingly like its name implies. Towering over the stream, it looks like a monkey’s head with its mouth open and big round ears.
Lost Maples State Natural Area is about three hours west of Austin in a rugged and beautiful section of the Hill Country. Fishing licenses are not required in the park’s streams and ponds.

[] | 2024-03-13T07:33:48 | null | 2024-03-15T00:00:00 | “I want to go to prison,” he claims, but no charges have been filed | https%3A%2F%2Fwww.austinchronicle.com%2Fcolumns%2F2024-03-15%2Fthe-austin-chronic-notorious-lawyer-adam-reposa-gets-raided-for-running-an-illegal-dispensary%2F.json | en | null | When there are questions surrounding the broad interpretation of laws or limits on freedoms, clarity often comes from people whose actions are radical, risky, and sometimes ridiculous.
As such, Adam Reposa deserves credit for answering one such question: How flagrantly can you sell weed in Austin before cops show up and raid you?
Reposa is notorious for being a relentless, in-your-face attorney whose brazen courtroom conduct has twice landed him in jail on contempt charges – once for pantomiming a jerking-off gesture toward a magistrate and another time for declining a judge’s order to approach the bench and declaring: “I want to show the people how hard it is to get a fair trial in this court.” He’s a chronic envelope-pusher, a 20-year alpha gremlin of the local legal system, and the proverbial mammal in the adage “Never wrestle with a pig: You’ll both get dirty and the pig will enjoy it.”
He’s also been selling a lot of cannabis.
His ludicrously forward-facing operation, ATX Budtenders, had a website with a menu, a phone number (737/Gas-Buds), and a house on the Eastside with a pink ice cream truck that acted as a center of operations.
Shortly before 10am on Jan. 22, the property was raided by an interdepartmental law enforcement team, including a SWAT unit. According to a Search Warrant Return and Inventory Report, the raid took in unspecified amounts of “Bulk marijuana,” “Bulk THC edibles,” psilocybin mushrooms, two rifles, two cell phones, “Various legal documents,” and an “Undetermined amount of US Currency.”
Though two people working as dispatchers for ATX Budtenders were present at the time of the search, no one was arrested or cited. Reposa tells The Austin Chronic that it was roughly 100 pounds of cannabis that was confiscated – less than the threshold that merits federal charges.
“And it was all CDB,” Reposa points out over the enchilada special at Texas Chili Parlor in late February.
You mean CBD?
“Whatever the fuck it is. It’s all CDB – that legal shit,’” he scoffs. “That’s our defense and we’re sticking with it. Try to try me and see what happens!”
While the Search Warrant Return and Inventory Report is undersigned by APD Officer Brandon Stewart, a media representative for APD told the Chronic that their officers merely assisted in the operation. According to a Travis County Sheriff’s Office public information officer, the search was led by the DEA, and TCSO SWAT also participated.
There’s overlap between the two aforementioned agencies though. Search warrant documentation lists TCSO Officer Mario Sotelo as the affiant. Sotelo is also a task force officer for the Drug Enforcement Administration. A TCSO source, speaking on background, explained to the Chronic that task force agents who assist the DEA have the same authority as actual DEA agents, but have limited jurisdiction and their salary is paid by the local sheriff’s office.
Reposa disagrees that it can be considered a DEA-led raid if it’s sheriff’s officers assisting the DEA, rather than federal agents from the Department of Justice.
“I always said I would serve a cop,” he states. “I never knew it would be DEA ... cuz it wasn’t!”
According to the search warrant affidavit, the investigation into Reposa’s dispensary began in mid-November from an anonymous source on the DEA Tip Line. Then a confidential source was prompted by officers to make three controlled purchases from ATX Budtenders in November (buying an ounce of marijuana), December (another ounce of marijuana, plus edibles and a promotional blunt), and January (mushrooms).
The affidavit also makes reference to a decade-old viral commercial for Reposa’s law office in which he repeatedly rams a car with his truck while screaming, “If you are prosecuting my client, YOU... ARE... IN... MY... WAYYYYY.”
The warrant was signed by Austin Municipal Court Judge Christyne E. Harris Schultz on Jan. 19. Schultz chose not to avail herself for an interview. The question the Chronic wanted to ask her was, “Would you have signed the warrant if you didn’t believe that charges would be filed?”
Because seven weeks after the raid, Reposa has still not been charged with a crime. He contends that confiscation without prosecution amounts to cops robbing cannabis dealers.
“They’re just trying to disrupt the market,” asserts Reposa, who has pivoted ATX Budtenders into a cannabis brand called Mr. Chinga which sells the “cheapest, fastest, freshest” T-shirts though the website savingmrchinga.com. “There are people who are trying to get established within the market and they want to disrupt that so when legalization and licensing happens, nobody has already garnered stable market relationships. They’re not trying to keep the weed out of people’s hands – they’re just robbing people.”
This is why Reposa is now loudly proclaiming: “I want to go to prison.”
Reading between the subterfuge, I suspect that Reposa actually wants to use the matter to make a statement against unjust cannabis laws while also making prosecutors look foolish for upholding them. He plans on representing himself in court, if he can successfully bait prosecutors to bring a case against him.
“There’s a fundamental constitutional question. Once we know marijuana is not dangerous – and there’s a literal FDA report done in the last year on this subject – how substantially are the government’s abilities to prosecute a non-dangerous drug and put people in prison? Slightly impaired, completely impaired, or not impaired at all?” he demands, all but banging his fist on the Chili Parlor table. “Because if you say 'not impaired at all,’ you are probably a white guy federal lawyer who’s made a lot of money going into the court system. How you gonna tell someone they can’t use a non-dangerous herb that don’t hurt nobody? If it’s a right, it’s a right. Either you understand the concept of liberty or you don’t – and if you don’t, then yeah lock me up.”
One prosecutorial system that will not be working to lock him up is Travis County District Court. On Jan. 24, a motion was granted allowing District Attorney José Garza to recuse his office from prosecuting the matter and instead appointing a pro tem prosecutor. A rep at Garza’s office reviewed the Chronicle’s copy of the motion, but did not offer responses to why the recent primary winner is recusing himself or which court would be assigned as pro tem prosecutor.
“I wanted them as prosecutor,” Reposa says of Garza’s office. “Because they’re soft as baby shit.”
This is part 1 in a strange serialized saga of the raid on ATX Budtenders.

[] | 2024-03-13T07:35:33 | null | 2024-03-15T00:00:00 | Electronic act talks new analog approach and Pakistani instrumentation | https%3A%2F%2Fwww.austinchronicle.com%2Fmusic%2F2024-03-15%2Fsxsw-interview-nabihah-iqbals-lush-london-soundscapes%2F.json | en | null | Six years after her debut, Nabihah Iqbal’s sophomore album, DREAMER, emerges from a treacherous creation process. The London-based musician lost her demos in a 2020 studio burglary, then spent COVID lockdown with family in Pakistan, away from most of her equipment. Reworking the LP from scratch, the artist stepped away from go-to electronic recording programs and picked up a more analog approach to composition.
“Relying so much on your computer ... you can just go back to it and see what you’ve done. That’s not a safe approach,” says Iqbal, formerly known as Throwing Shade. “There’s a real comfort in having the ideas in your mind, knowing exactly what you’re doing, even if it’s just the skeletal version of the track.”
“But then, somehow I’ve managed to meld the worlds together in a way that still stays true to my sound palette, and doesn’t feel pastiche or anything.” – Nabihah Iqbal
The final version of DREAMER transforms Iqbal’s initial ambient demos into a lush soundscape populated with electronic beats, synthesizers, and, more surprisingly, sitar and harmonium. The latter two instruments trace back to Iqbal’s Pakistani heritage, but she’d never incorporated them into her professional career until the April 2023 release.
“I had a very adamant view about not mixing the two,” explains the British Music Embassy showcaser. “It just felt like the two worlds were separate and I wouldn’t try and do it. But then, somehow I’ve managed to meld the worlds together in a way that still stays true to my sound palette, and doesn’t feel pastiche or anything.”
Sitar peeks out from layered acoustic guitar in instrumental centerpiece “Lilac Twilight,” while harmonium – a keyboard that makes sound by pumping air into reeds rather than hitting strings – reverberates in album opener “In Light.”
Contrasting these atmospheric tracks is breakaway hit “This World Couldn’t See Us.†The gloomy-but-infectious nugget of darkwave gold was inspired by Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles, which the artist calls “the best book that I’ve ever read in my life.†The My Year of Rest and Relaxation of the Victorian era, the novel follows a particularly downtrodden young woman.
“Every time she gets even a glimmer of a positive feeling, everything around her just shuts it down,” Iqbal explains – a fitting inspiration for her in-track whisper, “If death is freedom, then kill me now.”
After the burglary, Iqbal’s camp offered a lot of unhelpful consolation: “'Maybe it’s happened for a reason, and it will turn out better,’” she recalls hearing. In hindsight, her supporters may have been right. “I’m really happy with it,” Iqbal says of the finished album. “Maybe it was meant to happen that way.”

Uncanny Attractions Takes SXSW
Saturday 16, Highland Lounge
Uncanny specializes in inclusive pro wrestling with a dash of drag for taste, and during SXSW they’re throwing their hat into the ring of Downtown entertainment. Except there won’t be a ring. That’s right: Action from the likes of Stud Stache and Allie Katch will be on the floor of the Highland Lounge. So close you can probably smell it, but hopefully not feel the hard-hitting body slams. Like any show during SXSW, there will also be performances, music, and general chaotic vibes. – James Renovitch
St. Patrick’s Social Night
Saturday 16, Mozart’s Coffee Roasters
Yes, we remember when The Onion referred to St. Patrick’s Day as “The Reinforcin’ O’ the Stereotypes,” and it still makes us giggle as if tickled by a wee shillelagh. This weekend’s celebration will be less tongue-in-cheek and not at all cringe at Mozart’s Coffee Roasters, though, with a social night for all those excited to wear the green in traditional style and enjoy Éireann camaraderie at the Westside cafe alongside the shore of Lady Bird Lake. Bonus: Live performances from the fleet-footed fancies of the Irish Dance Center. – Wayne Alan Brenner

St. Patrick’s Day Celebration
Sunday 17, Draught House Pub
Legend has it that the patron saint of Ireland, who is said to have died March 17, is celebrated on this day because it’s right in the middle of Lent, a time of abstention, but making it a holiday allows the Catholics to give up the giving-up portion of Lent for a time to let their hair down and party. Celebrate loopholes with fellow revelers at Draught House, a bastion of brewing nearing its 30th anniversary, at this bash offering fish & chips, stout-braised sausage, bagpipes, frozen Irish coffee, and more.

Divina
Wednesday 20, Oilcan’s
At the start of her drag career, Divina host Tatiana Cholula told Qmmunity she’d be critiqued for not assimilating enough “American” culture into her acts. “Before I started Divina,” she said, “the scene was rich in amazing Latinx drag performers and artists, but there weren’t any spaces focused on them or they didn’t feel comfortable performing certain songs at certain spaces.” Thankfully, Tatiana did start Divina, and now every other Wednesday you’ll see Oilcan Harry’s stage taken over by the spirits of Latina legends like Gloria Estefan and Paulina Rubio – courtesy of local Latinx drag talent. – James Scott

Since their 2019 self-titled debut, the Bay Area fivepiece’s unexpected integration of influences from across alternative rock has gained considerable traction – including a spot at last year’s Coachella and major punk festivals.
“I’m not trying to hide the fact that I want to push the envelope with my music.” – Kat Moss
“I genuinely never expected anything. When we started this band, all I wanted to do was play shows with my friends in the Bay,” says Moss. “Everything has been this incredibly pleasant surprise.”
The group’s latest EP, Psychic Dance Routine, presents a testament to Scowl’s sonic evolution. Building on their signature speedy, abrasive foundation, the five-song endeavor flirts with static grunge for a refined Nineties flair. The band recruited producer Will Yip, who’s worked with hardcore acts like Title Fight and Turnover, for the project. Moss welcomed the collaboration, eager to find a like-minded voice to help expand their primal punk sound.
“Your crazy ideas can get realized and understood by the person who’s speaking the same language as you,” says the bandleader.
Equal parts rocker and pop fanatic, Moss credits Thom Yorke’s double-edged lyricism and Mannequin Pussy’s stark vocal delivery as recent sources of inspiration. The singer relishes in the distinct music tastes among Scowl’s members: guitarist Malachi Greene, bassist Bailey Lupo, drummer Cole Gilbert, and the newly enlisted Mikey Bifolco.
“Everybody’s kind of got their own thing that nobody else understands,” says Moss. “It creates something really fun and diverse and dynamic about [our] music.”
Approaching the first anniversary of Psychic Dance Routine, the vocalist reflects fondly on the Flatspot Records project – which earns them a headlining spot on the Baltimore label’s unofficial showcase, on Sat., March 16 at the Little Darlin’, alongside End It, Buggin, and more.
“It gave me such an opportunity to flex some creativity that I didn’t get to really show the world prior,” says Moss. “We just wanted to feel like the music was unapologetically us, and I think we did that.”

[] | 2024-03-13T07:35:58 | null | 2024-03-15T00:00:00 | First public bargaining session scheduled Wednesday | https%3A%2F%2Fwww.austinchronicle.com%2Fnews%2F2024-03-15%2Fcity-austin-police-association-agree-to-resume-contract-talks%2F.json | en | null | How much officers will be paid and how much the city is able to independently investigate those accused of misconduct are among the top issues city staff and the Austin Police Association will finally hash out. The two agreed to resume negotiations over a long-term labor contract for police nearly one year after the last contract expired.
The last time City Council approved a police contract was in 2018, after a contentious period in which Council members made the historic decision to reject the terms agreed to by city staff and the APA. The agreement that ultimately crossed the finish line established a robust system of civilian oversight that provided unprecedented levels of transparency into how the Austin Police Department holds officers accountable when they’re accused of misconduct. Over the next three years, the APA worked to dismantle that system, finally landing a fatal blow to the Office of Police Oversight in 2021, when an arbitrator agreed with an APA grievance alleging the OPO had illegally investigated complaints against police officers.
Negotiations over the new contract stalled out in 2022, and APD has been operating without a contract since. Those negotiations hinged on pay and oversight – and that’s been the case in every negotiation since the city and APA reached the first meet and confer agreement (i.e., police contract) more than 20 years ago. Before 2022 contract talks finally collapsed, city and APA negotiators had more or less come to an agreement on what kind of wage increases and benefits officers should enjoy over the life of the four-year contract, but APA wasn’t willing to bend on oversight. The association views the kind of oversight approved in the 2018 contract as an abridgement of officer rights.
“The only way we are able to move forward is by working together as this is one community.” – Austin Police Association President Michael Bullock
When it became clear that the city and APA would not agree to a new contract before the 2018 agreement expired March 31, 2023, Council approved a slew of pay increases for police officers without asking for anything in exchange. (Council re-upped the incentive package, which will cost more than $15 million, Jan. 18.) Then, in May, three months after talks between the city and APA broke down, Austin voters overwhelmingly approved the Austin Police Oversight Act (APOA), the city ordinance authored by local criminal justice advocates seeking to restore power to the OPO – and protect that power from future contract negotiations.
The APOA includes two key provisions that will be at the heart of the resumed contract negotiations. One, the ordinance requires the city and APD to abandon use of the “G file” where some records relating to misconduct investigations are kept secret. The city has refused to eliminate the G file and is currently fighting in court to preserve it. The second provision of the APOA key to negotiations is a clause that prohibits staff from agreeing to a contract that does not fully adhere to the APOA.
These two factors prompted Mayor Kirk Watson to declare in a Jan. 12 newsletter that the G file would need to go – whether by ordinance or through contract negotiation. “Austin ... said no [G file],” Watson wrote. “If we’re going to have the thing we all agree is the most important thing for getting more police – a contract – the contract can’t allow for a G file.”
“The only way we are able to move forward is by working together as this is one community,” APA President Michael Bullock was quoted saying in a city news release, March 6, announcing that negotiations would soon resume. “I’m encouraged by the progress we’re making and hope that we will be able to move through this process in a way that benefits all involved, most of all the community we serve.”
Now, with the first formal bargaining session between the city and APA set for March 13, we’ll see if the city sticks to that hard-line view on the G file. | www.austinchronicle.com | City, Austin Police Association Agree to Resume Contract Talks | null | null | https://www.austinchronicle.com/news/2024-03-15/city-austin-police-association-agree-to-resume-contract-talks/ |

Or at least, divided. The eternal battle between the artistic soul of the city and the evil tech companies infringing on Austin’s delicate weirdness reigns supreme. But these opposing concepts find harmony in the work of local artist Laurie Frick. After nearly a decade away from formal exhibits in Austin, Frick returns with “What did you do today?” at the Ivester Contemporary. It’s a sign of her personal progression, a new movement in her data-inspired art.
Traditionally, Frick creates captivating geometric artwork based on information pulled from open-source databases like ATUS (American Time Use Survey) or MTUS (Multinational Time Use Study), sites that are overwhelming in the amount of time-based information drawn from random samples. Seriously, you could fall down an internet hole for days mining the richness of those charts. After years working within technology companies, Frick sees the possibility in cold facts and statistics reflected through pixels. She’s richly aware of the humanity behind the numbers. “Your data is like your DNA,” says Frick when asked about her approach. Her artistic philosophy views patterns revealed in data as a language, reflecting the distinct individual behind the screens.
That human is precisely what Frick’s work reflects. It’s how she bridges the art/tech dichotomy. Whatever data she exhibits – money, music genres, walking routes – gets translated into shapes with a specifically chosen color palette. Frick gravitates toward natural tones and materials, giving warmth to what could otherwise seem coldly detached. Hues pop in dusky rose, moss, and bursts of inviting cobalt. They radiate off thickly fibered paper or, in a notable gallery debut, kiln-fired glass. After listening to Frick’s views on data, it seems she’s imagining a wondrous future. (Her passion and knowledge make her March 23 artist talk at Ivester an essential event.) To her, the expression of data radiates with the potential for beauty, personal tracking that could spark individual expression instead of a darkly encroaching Big Brother vibes. It’s more like the recognizable future of Her than the chrome dream of The Matrix. A bright and hopeful future instead of a chilling tech dystopia.
To Laurie Frick, the expression of data radiates with the potential for beauty, personal tracking that could spark individual expression instead of a darkly encroaching Big Brother vibes.
“What did you do today?” diverges from Frick’s previous art in one key matter: It’s not directly translated from existing datasets. Instead, it’s the “conceptualization” of a day. Twenty-four hours is like a perfect painting to Frick, a time span canvassing the good, the bad, and the wide-open spaces. So no, her “Time Division” pieces are no one’s time at all. Instead, they should spark a familiarity of what our time could be. They’re an approximation, an impression. The uneven rectangles, demarcated with dark shaky lines and colored blips, should tug at the viewer’s brain as a recognizable rhythm. They could mark out my day. Or yours, or your friend’s, or so on. At least, that connection is what Frick hopes for. The exhibit’s labels and gallery notes are purposely obtuse, saying the works are data-driven but declining to offer more information. It’s purposefully left up for interpretation. For Frick, “it’s better if you just imagine what it could be.”
There’s plenty of scope for the imagination. Tucked in a corner of the Ivester, the exhibit feels like a subtle, secret revelation for those who seek it out. There’s the immediate reward of the title piece, What did you do today?, a massive grid of 25 glass squares that fill an entire wall. The clustered vibrancy of blues and oranges demands attention, begs for exploration of every unique pane. The other pieces, a mix of glass and watercolored paper works, are variations on the title “Time Division,” each piece adding details on colors, patterns, or activities. These works don’t immediately overwhelm the viewer. Instead they’re the delicious afternotes of the exhibit, the delicate touches that pack a punch for those who stop and savor.
Looking at Frick’s work, particularly after hearing her wax poetic about the possibilities in the datasphere, I’m almost convinced that data and art can coexist. At first glimpse her charts seemed cold, the lines rigid markers of commodified time. But now? Now I notice the lively movement of the glass powder lines connecting each colored pane. I delight in the smooth matte finish where those kiln-fired panels were sandblasted to create an even more cohesive vision. Frick took something separate and made it whole. And perhaps, just perhaps, Austin can do that too.
A reception and artist talk with Laurie Frick takes place March 23, 6:30pm, at Ivester Contemporary (916 Springdale, Bldg. 2 #107).

HFC Presents Caravaggio
Friday 15, Elisabet Ney Museum
If you’re Austin’s Hyperreal Film Club and you’re teaming up with Letterboxd to present Derek Jarman’s Caravaggio, a fictionalized portrait of the subversive artist (that, oooh, features Tilda Swinton’s first film performance), you’ll want to do it somewhere appropriate, somewhere redolent of subversion and the old-school creative life, right?

“Apotheosis” Artists’ Reception
Friday 15, Lydia Street Gallery
The freshly paved streets of Austin still echo with Kathy McCarty’s soulful warbling of “Christine” from her days as frontwoman for Glass Eye, but now she – and her husband, the artist David Thornberry – have reached their pictorial “Apotheosis” in this two-person exhibition of paintings at Lydia Street Gallery on East 11th, McCarty’s visuals bringing evocations of life in our storied metrop, Thornberry’s capturing “shapes, shadows, and light.” Sonic bonus: The lady will perform songs from her upcoming album, also called Apotheosis, at tonight’s reception. Time hasn’t stolen this creative couple from anyone. – Wayne Alan Brenner

Monday 18, Atelier Dojo
Right, so you’re reading this because you saw “nude modeling” in the title, but then noticed the “sketching” and were still interested, because you’ve actually been wanting to capture an unclothed human figure on canvas or paper with pigments of one sort or another? Excellent – because this three-hour session happens at Atelier Dojo, the finest school of artistic realism in the city, run by painters Jennifer Balkan, Denise M. Fulton, and Karen Offutt. You don’t even have to be a student there: Show up anytime, use whatever supplies you need, and there’s only a $10 drop-in fee. – Wayne Alan Brenner

AFS Essential Cinema: Edward Yang
Tuesday 19 & Friday-Saturday 22-23, AFS Cinema
The history of world cinema teems with “new waves” that symbolized electrifying new directions – in technique, in the kinds of stories being told, and in the people doing the telling. In Taiwan, that New Wave revved up in the early Eighties with Edward Yang at the wheel. Austin Film Society’s new Essential Cinema presents a rare look at Yang’s filmography, which has grown in stature since his early death at 59 from colon cancer. Series kickoff Taipei Story (1985) stars Hou Hsiao-hsien, fellow titan of New Taiwanese Cinema, as a former star baseball player stuck in the past and at odds with his more modern-minded girlfriend, played by Tsai Chin, a pop singer who would become Yang’s first wife. – Kimberley Jones

One of the greatest decades, the Nineties gave us grunge, Seinfeld, Beanie Babies, millennials, and so much more. Celebrate the late 20th century at an arty party where you’ll make your own slime, taste some fave Nineties sweet treats at the candy bar, and make a contribution to the splatter paint graffiti wall. There will undoubtedly be a soundtrack of killer jams, and feel free to bust out your flannels and Docs or overalls with one strap hanging loose if you’re feeling especially nostalgic. – Kat McNevins
Lounge Movie Night: Moonage Daydream
Wednesday 20, Central Library
On the third Wednesday of every month, the Austin Public Library’s central location turns its Innovation Lab – a free-to-the-public podcast, video, and music studio – into a movie theatre. March’s movie is Moonage Daydream, Brett Morgen’s 2022 ode to David Bowie. More visual experience than talking-head documentary, Morgen – who offered a tragically revealing look into Kurt Cobain’s life with 2015’s Montage of Heck – uses personal archival footage and live shots to tell his subject’s story, creating a fittingly immersive, impressionistic look at one of the 20th century’s most alluring stars. – Carys Anderson

This is a real-world troll. This is a more traditional, definitely more affable, Scandinavian sort of troll – but much bigger. It’s the kind of creature that Danish artist Thomas Dambo has been constructing from recycled materials and installing across the globe for years.
Dambo, most often commissioned by community organizations with a budget and a sense of wonder, has completed more than 100 such fantastic sculptures in the past decade, and this latest one, to be unveiled March 15, will be squatting in Central Austin’s longtime gem of a park – the 43-acre Pease Park, which runs along the banks of Shoal Creek and Lamar Boulevard from West 15th Street to West 24th Street. You know: It’s where Eeyore’s Birthday Party is held each year, where joyous, body-painted celebrants run wild and many a drum circle forms as if by spontaneous generation.
Now, lest you think, Oh no, are living trees being slaughtered to bring us such a wooden wonderment?, please note where we said “recycled materials” above. This Dambo fellow’s all about the creative reuse of resources – in fact, such recycling, in addition to delighting the art-loving public, is his life’s mission. This Pease Park troll’s looming corpus is being conjured mostly from the boards of a decommissioned water tower on UT’s J.J. Pickle Research Campus, reclaimed and milled by the professional sawyers of Harvest Lumber. And “looming” is right: The finished troll will be approximately 18 feet tall by 15 feet wide, offering such an obvious photo opportunity that you might hear the wind whisper “Instagram” as you draw near.
Would you like to draw near? It’s a big troll, yes; but it’s an even bigger park. So, where in this mid-urban, 43-acre wilderness of trees and creek and trails will you find Dambo’s newest opus? The Pease Park Conservancy has helpfully revealed the troll’s precise location: “Once you arrive at Pease Park (1100 Kingsbury Street), head north on the trail through Kingsbury Commons. You will see an 'Art In The Park’ sign on your left. Just past this sign, there will be a trail that leads through the wooded area up the hill. Nestled into the trees, you will find the Pease Park troll.”
It is free to visit, of course: You’re just walking in a public park, right? OK, but so who’s paying for this troll, this friendly cynosure that Dambo has granted Pease Park a 15-year exclusive license for? Informational boilerplate tells us that the artwork is fully funded and maintained by the nonprofit Pease Park Conservancy, that “public funds are not used to support the Conservancy and are not being used to support this project,” and that the San Antonio-based Tejemos Foundation is covering the costs associated with installation and maintenance of the troll. Yes, for 15 years.
Whoa, philanthropy and art? Sounds like what Austin is supposed to be about, after all, doesn’t it? And this time the combination has resulted in a destination park’s newest attraction, an enormous, wisely sourced, tree-surrounded wooden troll that’s sure to delight young and old, visitors and locals alike? Reckon that’s a definite win for those on the side of good living – trolls included.

Their first happened to be with Atlantic Records labelmate Janelle Monáe (who also heads to SXSW as DJ Johnny Jane). As for lessons learned after achieving serious TikTok popularity, largely for sprinting while expressively rapping their song “You Wish”?
“We learned not to wear a different outfit every show, because that’s stupid,” says Bobbi. “We were carrying garment bags up and around hotels the whole Age of Pleasure Tour.”
“My family, they’re also in music, like my brother built a studio in his closet. So I would always be really influenced by my brothers and the local rappers from Dallas.” – Folayan
Speaking of clothes, the cover of their January single “Candyman” mimics Minnie Riperton’s 1974 album Perfect Angel – another nod alongside their name, which rhymes with Diana Ross. Bobbi, wearing her favorite Madonna and Basquiat T-shirt, says, “We’re always gonna be students in this art form, so we want to share that with everyone.” The bestie-branded duo met while attending L.A.’s Musicians Institute.
Prior, Bobbi focused on dance up until her teens, during which she played around Detroit with a School of Rock-formed band. In Dallas, Folayan joined her brothers in the Fly Five and focused on vocals at Booker T. Washington, a performing arts high school. While staying with her dad in the summers, she also attended Girls Rock Austin camp and once performed at the old Parish.
“My family, they’re also in music, like my brother built a studio in his closet,” she recalls. “So I would always be really influenced by my brothers and the local rappers from Dallas.
“My mom did [Erykah Badu’s] hair for a long period of time. She was kind of like my god-aunt, growing up. [She’s] amazingly influential to everything that I am now. I met other people, like Petey Pablo and André 3000 and Common.”
Despite musical upbringings, the duo churned as content creators for years before their breakout, with Flyana Boss songs dating back to 2019. Folayan says she’s grateful they’d already established a consistent posting formula, which they now squeeze into touring. As for advice they’d give themselves a year ago, when they both budtended at L.A. dispensaries, Folayan says: “Get that cardio, because you’re going to be running a lot.”
Bobbi adds: “I would tell myself to stop telling Folayan, every year, that this is gonna be the last year I’m gonna do this. 'If it doesn’t happen, I’m not doing this anymore.’ And then I would just keep doing it, and then one year, it was our year.”

Top-notch versions of this handheld morning repast can be found all over the city, but if you’re hanging out Downtown for SXSW, we’re glad to tell you that you can find amazing breakfast tacos within a very tight radius.
Migas Taco at Veracruz All Natural
Veracruz All Natural is an Austin taco icon, and their signature taco happens to be in the breakfast category. Veracruz’s migas taco features a homemade flour tortilla, eggs scrambled with tomato, onion, cilantro, Monterey Jack cheese, homemade tortilla chips, and avocado. Don’t forget to add Veracruz’s spicy red salsa for an unforgettable (and vegetarian-friendly) A.M. meal.

Chilaquiles Taco at Granny’s Tacos
East Austin is home to many of the city’s best breakfast tacos, so work up some energy and head to the other side of I-35. Granny’s Tacos on East Seventh and Cesar Chavez streets regularly count among taco aficionados’ top picks, and their chilaquiles taco with bright salsa verde, corn chips, chicken, onion, and cheese on a fresh corn tortilla is the one you can’t skip.

Bacon, Egg & Cheese Taco at Joe’s Bakery
Sometimes, a simple breakfast taco is the one you won’t forget. And if you head to Joe’s Bakery, a legendary restaurant that’s been holding court in East Austin since the 1930s, you’ll understand why a place that nails the classics is a place worth patronizing. Joe’s offers a BEC taco that hits the mark on all fronts, with perfectly scrambled eggs, a crisp and savory rasher of bacon, and melty cheese that ties it all together.

Steak, Egg & Smoky Gouda Taco at Taco Joint
An unassuming storefront on East Riverside Drive just south of Lady Bird Lake, Taco Joint is a laid-back spot for, as the name suggests, fantastic tacos. They offer a wide range of breakfast tacos, but the star of the show is the steak, egg, and smoky Gouda version. The smoked Gouda brings richness and a dusky flavor note, the steak is perfectly juicy, and the egg and tortilla join the other ingredients together into a brilliantly unified bite.

On The Fly Breakfast Taco at Trippy Tacos
For killer tacos at shockingly reasonable prices, Trippy Tacos is a truck that knows how to deliver. Their location on South Lamar Boulevard is just a few blocks south of the river, so anyone staying Downtown can easily access the On the Fly, a breakfast taco with refried beans, crispy bacon, scrambled eggs, and a wedge of avocado. It’ll keep your taste buds happy and your appetite sated, and its $3.25 price tag means that grabbing a second On the Fly for later is an entirely reasonable option.

Chorizo, Egg, and Cheese Taco at El Primo
If you head south on South First not too far past the lake, you’ll find El Primo, a taco truck with serious staying power in Austin’s ever-changing food scene. They’ve been serving their high-quality tacos for 20 years, and if you’re a fan of the spicy Mexican sausage known as chorizo, then you’ll love El Primo’s taco with house-made chorizo, egg, cheese, and a beautifully griddled flour tortilla.

Nopales & Egg Taco at Tacos Guerrero
Nopales – aka the pads of the prickly pear cactus – can be a polarizing ingredient. But if you’re a fan of its grassy, citrusy flavor and unique texture, then you’ll love the nopales and egg taco served at Tacos Guerrero, a no-frills East Austin taco truck that pulls no punches where flavor is concerned.

Only a few of these are within walking distance of SXSW’s Downtown environs, but they’re all worth the extra effort.
Casino El Camino and Casino South Side
Standing boldly in the face of neighborhood vibe shifts since it opened in the mid-Nineties, Casino El Camino offers a chill, unpretentious respite from the chaos of Dirty Sixth. Regulars keep coming back for the inexpensive drinks, the fantastic jukebox, and the loaded burgers, which have become the stuff of local legend. About 20 years after launching Casino El Camino, the team decided to expand with another location right off of Ben White. But Casino South Side isn’t just a beat-by-beat remake of Casino El Camino. Instead, it’s a dark, quirky, gloriously weird dive with obscure horror movies playing behind the bar, pool and shuffleboard tables that are just rickety enough, and bartenders with encyclopedic memories.

Deep Eddy Cabaret
We love a dive bar with serious longevity and Deep Eddy Cabaret has been keeping Austinites well-quaffed since 1951, so it deserves a spot on this list. West Austin cherishes its local watering hole for its down-to-earth charm, very reasonable shots-and-beers drink menu, a legendary jukebox, and proudly vintage flair.

The Aristocrat Lounge
Neon lights, vinyl banquettes, mounted stag’s heads, and Skee-Ball: all the markers of a quality Texas dive bar, and all present and accounted for at the Aristocrat on Burnet Road. This bar will serve you a nicely made cocktail (and they even have cocktails on draft), but cheap beers and relaxed energy are the main attractions. If you work up an appetite – or you need to soak up the Aristocrat’s strong pours – Yeni’s Fusion, the impeccable Indonesian food truck parked outside, is a must-visit.

Sam’s Town Point
If you want a dive bar where you can two-step, then Sam’s Town Point has you covered. In far South Austin, you’ll find a cheap AF dive that’s a hub for live local music and that heartily encourages its patrons to get out on the floor and start dancing.
2115 Allred Dr., samstownpointatx.com
Ego’s
Karaoke aficionados in Austin will tell you that the No. 1 place for living out your rock-star fantasies is Ego’s on South Congress. But even if you don’t have musical talents, you can enjoy Ego’s for its slightly run-down aesthetic, inexpensive drinks, and pool table.
510 S. Congress, instagram.com/egosbaratx
G&S Lounge
South First Street is becoming an impressive avenue of prestige restaurants, but G&S Lounge is still why many Austinites choose to head down to that area. Low-cost beer, charmingly surly bartenders, and dim lighting are readily available here. Because this location has been serving cheap booze and DGAF vibes to Austinites for over 40 years, it’s worth a visit for any dive bar aficionado.

The Lost Well
As East Austin continues down the express lane of gentrification, it’s refreshing to find a genuine and unapologetic biker bar amid the chic coffee shops and cocktail boîtes on Webberville Road. The Lost Well has been holding court in this area for a decade with an ever-present fleet of motorcycles out front, punk and metal bands rocking the house on a nightly basis, reliably inexpensive drinks, and an excellent daily happy hour.

The Centre's talks with Ladakh's civil society leaders failed after a six-member delegation from the Union Territory met with Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi today. Former BJP MP Thupstan Chhewang, who is also the chief of the Ladakh Buddhist Association (LBA), has been leading the talks.
"We met Amit Shah at his residence but he categorically said that neither statehood nor guarantee within the Sixth Schedule can be granted and that's why talks failed," Senior Vice President of Ladakh Buddhist Association Chering Dorjay Lakruk told NDTV.
According to Mr Lakruk, they came to Delhi on the Home Ministry's invite for the third round of talks. "We met Home Ministry officials initially and then went to meet Amit Shah at his residence," he said.
"The meeting with the Home Minister did not bring any positive outcome. So the leaders of Ladakh Apex Body and Kargil Democratic Alliance will now consult the people on the future course of action," a statement released by the sub-committee members read.
In a press statement, the Home Ministry said, "Amit Shah assured the delegation that under the leadership of PM Modi, the government is committed to providing necessary Constitutional safeguards to the Union Territory of Ladakh. He assured that the High Powered Committee on Ladakh has been discussing the modalities to provide such Constitutional safeguards."
"The Home Minister expressed that the consultative mechanism established through this High Powered Committee should continue to engage on issues such as measures to protect the region's unique culture and language, protection of land and employment, inclusive development and employment generation, empowerment of LAHDCs and examine constitutional safeguards for positive outcomes," it added.
Last week, Ladakh's prominent climate activist Sonam Wangchuk said he would fast unto death in sub-zero temperatures if the talks with the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) officials fail.
He said that the government under the "influence of the industrial lobby" does not want to ensure constitutional safeguards for Ladakh.
Earlier, the MHA had agreed to examine the legality of granting statehood to Ladakh and its inclusion under the Sixth Schedule.
The MHA had also constituted a high-powered committee to address the grievances and demands of the people of Ladakh last year. The committee led by Nityanand Rai, the Minister of State for Home Affairs, held its first meeting on December 4.
The Ladakh Apex Body and the Kargil Democratic Alliance have jointly demanded statehood for Ladakh and its inclusion in the Sixth Schedule - giving it a tribal status, job reservations for the locals, and a parliamentary seat each for Leh and Kargil.
The Sixth Schedule under Article 244 of the Constitution protects tribal populations, allowing for the creation of autonomous development councils to frame laws on land, public health, and agriculture. As of now, 10 autonomous councils exist in Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram.
Interestingly, the BJP is rallying its campaign for the 2024 elections on how the abrogation of Article 370 has benefitted both Jammu Kashmir and Ladakh. "But if they give in to this demand just ahead of elections, it will boomerang against them," a senior official explained.
According to him, with the latest developments, they might lose the Ladakh seat. "They can afford to lose one seat but if the narrative fails then it will not only cost them both seats in Jammu but may also affect their vote share in other seats as well," he added.
Ladakh was turned into a Union Territory without a Legislative Assembly after the Centre ended the special constitutional position of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir and split it into two Union Territories - J&K and Ladakh - on August 5, 2019.
In the last four years, Ladakh has shut down on multiple occasions amid fears of disempowerment of locals and overreach of bureaucracy. | www.ndtv.com | Talks For Statehood Failed, Say Ladakh Leaders After Meeting Amit Shah | null | null | https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/talks-for-statehood-failed-say-ladakh-leaders-after-meeting-amit-shah-5176205 |

Another fan wrote, "@mahirahkhan beautiful girl." Another comment read, "Princess." "Ma'am you are Queen", read another comment. Mahira Khan, who was rumoured to be pregnant with her second child, dismissed the rumours in an interview with The Express Tribune. She told The Express Tribune, "It's not true that I'm pregnant." Take a look at her post here:
Mahira's pregnancy rumours were doing the rounds after a Reddit thread claimed that Mahira Khan might be pregnant with her second child. The post also added that the actress opted out of Netflix's Jo Bachey Sang Samait Lo and another yet-to-be-titled film as she's expecting.
The Reddit post read, "So, I got this news from a close source that she opted out of the esteemed Netflix project alongside a big film as she's expecting her second child somewhere in August or September. An announcement could be made soon or not if she chooses to announce it after birth, but as she's a big celeb and can't keep it lowkey for long, I personally feel that she will announce."
Mahira Khan got married to businessman Salim Karim last year. She shared pictures from her wedding and pre-wedding festivities on social media. On her big day, the Humsafar star wore a pastel lehenga with a veil. She completed her look by wearing matching diamond jewellery. Salim complemented the bride in a black sherwani and a blue turban. Mahira shared her first wedding picture and wrote in the caption, "Bismillah." In the picture, we can see the couple sharing an intimate moment while a veil over their faces creates a picturesque atmosphere. Take a look at the post here:
Mahira Khan was earlier married to Ali Askari. They however parted ways in 2015. Mahira and Ali are parents to a 13-year-old son, Azlan. Mahira will be seen with Fawad Khan and Sanam Saeed in the Netflix series Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo. The show is an official adaptation of Farhat Ishtiaq's bestselling 2013 Urdu-language novel.

A Pakistani boxer has disappeared in Italy after stealing money from a teammate's bag, the Pakistan Amateur Boxing Federation said on Tuesday. Zohaib Rasheed has gone to Italy to take part in an Olympic qualifying tournament. A senior official of the federation said they had brought it to the notice of the Pakistan Embassy in Italy and also filed a police report about the incident.
Pakistan faced a big problem when Zohaib Rasheed, a boxer who won a bronze medal in Asia, went missing in Italy. Italy is hosting a boxing event for the Paris Olympics in a place called Busto Arsizio Arena near Milan. #Championship #bronze #medal #Pakistan #Italy #athlete pic.twitter.com/OClRzffvGY — Startup Pakistan (@PakStartup) March 4, 2024
"It is most embarrassing for the federation and country the way Zohaib Rasheed has behaved as he had gone there as part of a five-member squad to take part in an Olympic qualifying tournament," the national federation's secretary, Colonel Nasir Ahmed said.
Zohaib Rasheed invades female boxer's hotel room to steal money:
Zohaib had won a bronze medal in last year's Asian Boxing Championships and was regarded as a rising talent in Pakistan. Nasir said that a female boxer Laura Ikram had gone out for training and Zohaib took her room keys from the front desk and stole her foreign currency from a purse before disappearing from the hotel.
"The police have been informed and they are now searching for him but he is not in contact with anyone," Nasir said.
This is not the first time a Pakistani athlete has gone abroad with a national squad and slipped away in hope of a better future. | www.freepressjournal.in | Pakistani Boxer Disappears After Stealing Money From Teammate’s Bag In Italy, Federation Embarrassed | null | null | https://www.freepressjournal.in/sports/pakistani-boxer-disappears-after-stealing-money-from-teammates-bag-in-italy-federation-embarrassed |

Fortis Hospital, Mumbai, has conducted two-month survey highlighting how stroke impacts women’s health. The survey spoke to 4,981 women between the ages of 18 and 80 years. Among the respondents, 49% were between 18 and 30 years, while 45% were between 31 and 50; only 6% were between 51 and 70 years. Dr S Narayani, business head, Fortis Hospitals, Maharashtra, who spearheaded the survey, said there is a need to improve awareness and prevention tactics about stroke.
Risk factors For Stroke In Women
Since women often tend to disregard the symptoms, there is a greater need to make effective care and prevention techniques available to them. The survey highlighted that risk-factors such as hormone replacement therapy, birth control medications, depression and migraines are considered to be the main factors for stroke in women.

However, 54% of respondents agreed that breastfeeding could decrease the risk of stroke, whereas 46% stated that breastfeeding and the risk of stroke were unrelated aspects. The findings reveal that citizens are unaware of the fact that high blood pressure during pregnancy is a significant factor for stroke.
Age And Menopause Influencing Factors In Stroke Risk
Most of them were aware that there was a link between stroke and other health conditions such as diabetes, obesity and migraine. Dr Kaustubh Mahajan, consultant neurologist, SL Raheja Hospital, Mahim, said age, particularly for women undergoing menopause, stands out as a significant factor influencing the risk of stroke. | www.freepressjournal.in | Mumbai: Survey By Fortis Hospital Reveals Need For Awareness And Prevention Regarding Stroke Risk In Women | null | null | https://www.freepressjournal.in/mumbai/mumbai-survey-by-fortis-hospital-reveals-need-for-awareness-and-prevention-regarding-stroke-risk-in-women |

New Delhi: A book by Islamic scholars, released on Sunday in Delhi, has debunked the idea of 'Ghazwa-e-Hind,' which is often used by Islamic extremists to justify acts of terror in India. The book, titled 'The Reality of Ghazwa-e-Hind' and published by Khusro Foundation, contains research by nine scholars who have delved into Islamic texts to establish that the concept is a false narrative.
The idea of 'Ghazwa-e-Hind' which predicts an invasion and submission of India to Islam, was in the news last month when the Darul Uloom, a prominent Islamic seminary in Deoband, Uttar Pradesh, mentioned the idea in its reply to a query by a student. The reply by the seminary suggested that one of the six books on the sayings of Prophet Muhammed had a chapter on the idea, a claim that has been discredited by the book.
After the seminary's alleged validation of the theory, the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) had called for a First Information Report against the school for its alleged endorsement of the 'Ghazwa-e-Hind' fatwa, which allegedly glorifies 'martyrdom in the cause of India's invasion.'
The book has been published in English, Hindi and Urdu. It is part of Khusro Foundation, also known as Amir Khusro Foundation, to ideate, generate, and disseminate corrected information regarding Islam.
Dr Zeenat Shaukat Ali, former head of the Islamic studies at St Xaviers College, Mumbai, said, "All the speakers at the book launch agreed that it (Ghazwa-e-Hind) was an unacceptable and weak tradition. We should re-examine the tradition and remove it."
MJ Akbar, author and former minister, who spoke at the launch of the book at India International Centre said, "Do not blame Islam for the sins of Muslims. Prophet Mohammad spent most of his life under persecution, but he never gave a call to war during the worst of his times. The concept of Ghazwa-e-Hind is not just fabricated but mischievous."
After the NCPCR's call for prosecution of the Deoband seminary, some Muslim groups have drawn attention to other organisations that are allegedly promoting the ideology. Last month, the Sufi Islamic Board (SIB) wrote to the police departments in several states, drawing their attention to an organisation based in Mumbai, which they alleged, was espousing the concept of Ghazwa-e-Hind through their various policies.
The SIB said that the organisation, which draws its ideology from Dawat-e-Islami, a group based in Karachi, Pakistan, has been creating a narrative that India should be converted to Islam to save the lives of its Muslims. There is also a provocation to violence against Sufis Shias, and other minority sects amongst Muslims, the SIB has said. | www.freepressjournal.in | Khusro Foundation Launches Book By Islamic Scholars That Debunks Idea Of 'Ghazwa-E-Hind' | null | null | https://www.freepressjournal.in/india/khusro-foundation-launches-book-by-islamic-scholars-that-debunks-idea-of-ghazwa-e-hind |

A frightful incident that has sent shockwaves across the city of Kolkata in West Bengal. A child was left in a state of shock after he was sent to his grandparents on Tuesday night (February 27th) after his mother surrendered to police moments after she stabbed her live-in partner to death. The child was the accused's son from the previous marriage who was living along with the couple in the same house in Kolkata. It still not certain if the child saw the murder taking place however, separation from biological father and frequent fights of his mother with her partner had already pushed the child into a difficult mental state.

Despite 49% of surveyed women expressing concerns about career gaps affecting job applications, over 80% believe they can advance to top-level positions upon returning to work.
The study, titled “Navigating the path back: Women returners in MENA,” draws insights from over 1,200 women across nine MENA countries, including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, and Oman. Key findings reveal that 44% of women in MENA have taken career breaks, often due to family and caregiving responsibilities, and 68% of them have experience beyond entry-level positions.
Facilitating women’s return to the workforce is seen as a crucial step to unlock their significant economic potential. The report suggests that implementing supportive measures, such as alternative work models like flexi- or remote working, can help balance work and home responsibilities. Allowing women flexibility in working hours could potentially lead to GDP gains of up to $4.3B across the studied countries, according to Arabian Business.
To encourage female re-entry into the workforce, PwC recommends more equitable parental leave policies and well-designed returnship programmes. The study underscores the importance of tapping into women’s potential for the future success of the region.

Renowned for her impeccable style and grace, the momprenuer brings her passion for fashion and her role as a mother into a sustainable children’s clothing line. The actress teams up with Ashmika Sadh, founder of Zip Zap Zoop, to offer an exciting range of collection for the young fashionitas. Talking about the brand and the collaboration with Shilpa, Ashmika shares, “Zip Zap Zoop is a brand born out of passion. Coming from a lineage of manufacturing and exports, we wanted to introduce a brand that not just offers style but also comfort. Being a homegrown brand we take socially conscious efforts to give back to the community. We are excited to partner with Shilpa that will add value and credibility to the brand.”
Ashmika Sadh, Founder, Zip Zap Zoop |
Ahead of International Women’s Day (March 8), we spoke to Shilpa about her new venture and more.
Excerpts from the interview:
What inspired you to venture into the world of kids' clothing?
I love fashion, but I also believe in sustainable fashion when it comes to kids. Becoming a mom made me realise that there weren’t many choices when it came to Indian clothing or Indian fashion brands. Hence, when I got the opportunity and Ashmika told me about her background, I realised it would make a great partnership. This collab will only give children and parents more choices in kids’ clothing that would also be sustainable.
Was there a specific moment or experience that motivated you say yes to the project?
Being a mom to a 12-year-old son and a four-year-old daughter just made me realise how different children are from each other and what the demand is at this time when it comes to their fashion sensibilities. That made me wonder how interesting it would be if we could have more choices for our kids to choose from. My son is always complaining about how they’re trying to make his clothes look too kiddish and my daughter wants something else in her sensibilities. So, to kind of have that edge as a mom and someone who wants to see her children dress up well (chuckles), I thought there couldn’t have been a better moment than this to say yes to a project like this.
What sets Zip Zap Zoop apart from other kids clothing brands?
Zip Zap Zoop focuses on three key pillars: creativity, comfort, and sustainability. We offer a diverse range of 500 styles to cater to every child’s individual personality, all made with soft, comfortable, and hypoallergenic fabrics. Additionally, 80% of our collection uses sustainable materials like organic cotton and recycled polyester, and we prioritise ethical production practices.
As a mother, when choosing clothes for your children, are there specific parameters you stick to?
Absolutely! Comfort is paramount, so I look for soft, breathable fabrics that allow for freedom of movement. Additionally, I prioritise clothes that are easy to wash and wear. Most importantly, keep it simple when it comes to choices with colours and sizes. I like choosing pieces that are versatile and can be mixed and matched to create different looks.
Read Also Ram Mandir: Diverse Voices Of Three Generations
How would you describe your personal style?
I would think, I am not a trend follower; I prefer to set a trend. I wear clothes to enjoy them, and I want to look good in them, but not at the cost of comfort. So, I like experimenting, and I like to keep it simple in terms of cuts and silhouettes. Sometimes, I am not afraid to take risks.
Does your style influence the designs for Zip Zap Zoop?
My personal style definitely inspires the overall aesthetic of Zip Zap Zoop, but we also make sure to cater to a wide range of preferences. Ultimately, we want every child to find something they love and feel confident in.
As an actress, you have a connection with your audience. How do you bring that connection into the world of children's fashion?
Being an actress has allowed me to understand the power of storytelling and creating emotional connections. With Zip Zap Zoop, I want to go beyond just clothes and create a brand that celebrates the magic of childhood. We want to inspire kids to express themselves creatively and confidently, just like I try to do through my work.
In an era of growing awareness, how do you incorporate sustainability and ethical practices into your kids' clothing line?
Sustainability and ethical practices are at the core of Zip Zap Zoop. We use eco-friendly materials like organic cotton and recycled polyester, and we partner with manufacturers who prioritise ethical production practices. We are also committed to transparency, openly sharing our processes and materials with our customers. | www.freepressjournal.in | International Women's Day: Actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra Talks About Her Foray Into Kids’ Clothing Line | null | null | https://www.freepressjournal.in/weekend/international-womens-day-actress-shilpa-shetty-kundra-talks-about-her-foray-into-kids-clothing-line |

This powerful Jackery portable power station is a great choice for camping or outdoor activities, but it's also extremely useful in a pinch. It can be charged in as little as 1.35 hours when plugged into a wall outlet (4.3 hours when plugged into a car) and carries enough of a charge to power your phone 13 times, a camera 12 times and a drone 5 times. If you’re going to be outside for a while, you can also pair it with a solar panel for charging off the road and off the grid. It may not power your entire house, but keeping your phone and other small devices topped off during an emergency can be invaluable. If the Explorer 300 Plus is a little more than what you need, the Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 240 is also a great pick, currently on sale. Also, if you're willing to sacrifice a bit of charge speed and maneuverability for a few more total banked charges, the original Explorer 300 is also still available and on sale. You can check that out right here.
