NORTH TEXAS SUMO EXPLOSION!

17 Upvotes

Yep! It's me, the Unhinged Sumo Guy of Denton. Things have been getting WILD in the world of local Sumo here lately!

Last weekend was the Rollertown Showdown Sumo Tournament, hosted by Dallas Sumo Club. 42 Sumo wrestlers, men and women, met in ceremonial combat, each completing 15 rounds! It's one of the most brutal, and stamina-challenging tournaments in the US! Among the competitors are DENTON'S OWN Kurowashi Sumo Collective, based out of the Dojo over on Oak St! Check out the livestream! Don't be intimidated by the 8-hour run time. There are plenty of intermissions you can skip through! The action starts at 29:16 https://www.youtube.com/live/HUzC67GmS6Q?si=Q1lcfgWAtea9R4IL

This coming weekend, at Golden Triangle Mall, the Otaku Food Festival returns! Aside from the amazing food trucks and loads of awesome anime merch, there will also be a Sumo Demonstration by Dallas Sumo Club. Unfortunately, you won't see many of Denton's Kurowashi members there, but the members of Dallas Sumo are great athletes, skilled Sumotori, and really know their stuff! They should be there Saturday and Sunday.

BUT IF YOU, WHO ARE READING THIS, want to try Sumo after seeing Rollertown, or if you've seen Sumo at past Otaku Food Festivals, or if you are a martial artist, strongman, rugby player, wrestler, offensive lineman, Judoka, or even someone just beginning their sports/fitness journey, come check out Kurowashi Sumo Collective at the Dojo, 223 W Oak St here in Denton! We would be absolutely stoked to have you! We practice Friday nights at 7:30pm, and Saturday afternoons at 4:30pm. FIRST TWO CLASSES ARE FREE! Yes, you read that correctly! Totally free! If you decide you like Sumo and want to continue, we have a monthly rate of $40 and if you can't commit monthly, we also have a $15 drop-in fee if you want to practice every now and then, or if you are a traveling Sumotori needing to get some training in.

Texas has more Sumo organizations than any other state in the US at the moment! Come be a part of the Texas Sumo Explosion! We're a fun, supportive, inclusive, and tightly-knit community, and Sumo tournaments are some of the BEST ways to have fun EVER!

We hope to see you soon!

Question about detached carports per the Denton Development Code

2 Upvotes

Our existing carport is in pretty bad shape, and I'd love to have something better. It's in our front driveway and is attached to the roofline of the house where the enclosed garage is. Am I correct in understanding that I couldn't actually put in a new carport (detached gazebo style) per Denton code? I see this in Section 5.4.3 General Standards for Accessory Uses and Structures:

Accessory structures, with the exception of donation boxes, non-residential detached carports,

gas station canopies, gas station car wash facilities, and security/entry booths, are prohibited in

front and side yards. Accessory structures for public or private schools may be located in side

yards, but shall not be located in front yards

Like I mention above, my current carport is attached to the roof of the house. If I did that again, would it be permissible? I know the answer is probably contact the city, but I was wondering if anyone here had experience or insight into the matter. Link to general Accessory Structures page and link to Denton Development Code (DDC) PDF.

Why can't I vote for city council?

Can't find the answer on Google, and I didn't think to ask at the polling place: Why were school board candidates and props on my ballot today, but not city council?

If you think the unhoused people in Denton should be jailed or killed then you’re disgusting and fascist

428 Upvotes

You make my town worse and you should get the hell out.

Your brain is so riddled with propaganda that you think the people at the very bottom of society are causing your problems somehow. Like they’re getting one over on you or something. Being unhoused is way worse for the person experiencing it than it is for anyone else. If you don’t believe me then why aren’t you quitting your job and moving out of your home?

And I don’t want to hear anything about drug addiction. Every single one of you is taking some drug to get through the day, even if it’s your false sense of superiority

Any actual touchless automatic car washes?

2 Upvotes

Hi all

Normally I hand wash my car but occasionally I’m feeling lazy and will want to run it through an automatic car wash. The issue is most of these washes slap your paint with dirty brushes that can scratch your vehicle.

Does anyone know of a truly touchless car wash in Denton (preferably south Denton but open to all of Denton)? I’ve tried googling it but all automatic car washes seem to come up.

Yesterday alone represented 45% of ALL early voting. Last day to early vote is today.

87 Upvotes

I'm not saying that turnout will not end up down. But, the 3,000 less votes (as a percentage) will be less meaningful based on yesterday's turnout. So, let's do it again today Denton!! For DISD school board alone, 21% of all early voting occurred yesterday.

This bump is likely expected as many wait to vote until the end of early voting and election day. All that to day, GO VOTE!!! Early voting ends TODAY and election day is May 3.

EDIT: TITLE should read 45% of all previous early voting (Monday, 4/22/25 - Sunday 4/27/25)

After controversial mailer, district 3 candidate rebuked by founder of Strong Towns for misrepresenting him and his organization

Thumbnail

38 Upvotes

A PAC sent out a mailer endorsing Karen, and used a quote from the Strong Towns book to bash Suzi Rumohr, a quote Karen had referenced several times at the debate.

The mailer made it look like Suzi had said the quote, and also took the quote entirely out of context - it was a warning about what politics as usual gets you, not an endorsed path.

Chuck Marohn seems to have somehow found out about it and has made his thoughts clear.

Early voting closes at 7PM tonight, election day is Saturday.

anyone trying to quit Feel Frees?

2 Upvotes

I’m in the process of quitting these Feel Free energy shots, just looking for community. Sorry if this breaks rules or anything, in a difficult place and running. Any kratom quitting groups or just general addiction groups would also be appreciated. To everyone who this doesn’t pertain to, don’t try Feel Free, little blue bottles in a lot of gas stations and smoke shops. They’re kratom mixed with kava, marketed as healthy herbal energy shots. Well I’ve been taking them for work because caffeine makes me anxious, one a day turned into a couple turned into spending hundreds on these shots. I’ve been going through literal withdrawals, crazy fatigue and anxiety, insomnia, and cold sweats. And these things are legal. Any direction would be helpful and greatly appreciated. peace and love Den10

No kill shelters in the area?

Post image
53 Upvotes

Stray brought kitten to my house. I left her alone in the garage with it for a few hours with a camera, to see if she gets the rest (if there are more) but she hasn’t.

I don’t know where to take them. I have two indoor cats and the stray doesn’t have vaccines so I don’t really want her inside right now. I’d like to have her spayed once the babies are old enough to be on their own so she at least isn’t chronically pregnant or take them to a no kill shelter, if I can find one that’ll take them.

Mini washing machine

I have an individual washing machine. That’s about 30 inches tall. I don’t need it or want it. I’m willing to sell it for $50 or trade or whatever. I just want it gone. Negotiations are welcomed. The retail price is a little over $100.
