I know there was like a whole ordeal a while back about some implant complaining about the bubble machine messing up his car paint or something and a bunch of people came out and had a bubble party…I’m a local been in New Orleans all my life and have worked as a server over 15 years and recently by my usual parking spot (Chartres st) someone has place a 24/7 bubble machine over my car. The first night when I got home I noticed the weird shit on my car and thought maybe some drunk threw their beverage on my car. I went home washed it off (twice already) only to notice the machine above my car. I’m not trying to rain on anyone’s parade and will be parking else where but wtf do you really need that shit going off 24/7 ?? Some of the bubble stains won’t even come off my car. Fuck those bubbles man.

This sad sight used to be an ovenbird; a small, migratory warbler known for its surprisingly resonant and pretty song. Chewed up by a feral cat and left. Because cats instinctively kill for fun. Often they don’t even eat what they catch (as was the case with this bird). I’d highly recommend looking up a picture of an alive ovenbird and giving their song a listen. They forage among the tree branches and on the ground (where they also build their nests). Every year they fly 2-3,000 miles each way from their winter home to their breeding grounds. While they aren’t exactly threatened, bird populations across the board are in rapid decline due to many factors. One of those major contributing factors are free-roaming & feral cats which kill 1.3-1.7 billion birds in the United States EVERY YEAR.

Yesterday, I found this sad little thing in front of my neighbor’s home, where they have several food bowls set out for the local strays. I like my neighbors and I even like cats, but I dislike that they feed these cats (who also take shits in my garden).

I know the reaction to this post will mostly be assholes telling me to cry harder or cat people screaming at me to leave their previous fur babies alone, but I don’t care. This is what your outdoor cats and feral cat colonies are doing to the native wildlife and you should have to see it. If I could, I take out a fucking billboard. It’s sick and genuinely a sad and neglectful situation for the cats as well (no I don’t care if your cat “loves being outside”— so does my dog but I take her on walks— I don’t let her roam the streets). If one person sees this an decides to stop letting their cat outside, then it was 100% worth all the shit I’m about to get.

And if you’re wondering what CAN be done about invasive cat populations (bc trust that outdoor/feral cats ARE an invasive species), take a look at what Australia is doing. That’s how you protect your native wildlife.

I find it difficult to believe that these venerable controllers "made in the USA" were only hacked in France.

Went down to get my usual overpriced specialty produce and discovered almost everything empty. Produce all covered. No dairy, meat, or seafood in stock at all. I’m curious. Whas happenin?

Hi everyone, as the title suggests, I am in search of a low cost psychiatrist ! My meds are running out as I am waiting for my Medicaid application to be approved.

If it doesn’t come in time, due to delays in processing (was supposed to come in last week already, called n they said I should just wait another 2 weeks) I would be needing an affordable out of pocket psychiatrist.

I have my diagnoses already, and would simply need the state required consultation to receive a script for my ADHD meds monthly. I’ve been on and off of the same one for a decade and need to go back on them. Have some old ones I’m working through now which have gotten me through this crisis, But only have enough for another month.

Thanks for the help <3

Recently, I found my old childhood Pokémon cards, and its and overwhelming amount to look through to get an idea online of a worth. I'm trying to downsize. So, I'm looking for a few shops to get an estimate for selling the suitcase of cards. They are all free 2007. Anyone know of a reliable Pokémon shop(s) that would be willing to give me a purchase estimate?

Anyone familiar with the City Park Ave/Cemeteries intersection knows how horribly designed the traffic lights are since the last redesign. Well, today the lights aren’t functioning.

Was it CARmageddon? Nope. In fact, this was the least stressful and quickest trip through this hellscape of an intersection that I’ve experienced.

With indisputable proof what some traffic engineers did to our city, I propose that we impanel a tribunal for everyone responsible for this travesty. Once convicted, death by drinking unboiled water.

Only slightly /s.

i'm not a big fan of athletic, i been looking for Le Chouffe, Erdinger, Bitburger, Best Day (variety 12 pack or electro lime,) Figueroa Mountain specifically. anyone seen these anywhere?

It looks like they are building a stage, walkway, multi-tented affair. Company event trucks from Chicago. A/c units, generators, chandeliers galore! Anyone know? Also open to wrong answers 🤣

If you were the one that hit the united cab on Prytania today I definitely saw him pull out in front of you. I was working when it happened so I waited till everyone got out of the cars and finished my tour so I didnt give a statement. If you need a witness reach out.

Power flickers/goes out so frequently around Carrolton, it resets all of our devices and otherwise messes with our lives. Now it's out yet again. So fed up with their incompetence.

He was the older gentleman, quite charismatic. He would come and sing at the tables and I think he worked for the family at Tony Angelos forever. I’d like to go see him at his new place, wherever that is.

Also, does anyone know more about his backstory?

And yeah, I know Nephews was in Metairie, don’t sue me.

Anyone know the group parading tonight? Nothing resembling a theme just a loud AF setup and smaller group of people. They have a police escort so seems legit.

I convinced the chair to open Spanish 201 for spring 2027 (it's almost never available but I need it), and they said at least 10 people need to sign up. Please, oh please, if the academia gods are out there, will y'all please sign up lol.

Precautionary Boil Water Advisory Issued for a portion of New Orleans East.

Have you been? Was it fun?

I’m debating on getting tickets, but I can’t find any reviews or anything about it, and I’ve never been to a show(?) like this.

Thanks!

I have so many used books - fiction and non. What's the best place for me to get rid of them (beyond driving around to all the little book libraries).

Just wanted to add my praise. Had a leak coming through my ceiling from the air handler in the attic. Phil came out next day (a few hours early!), fixed it, explained why I couldn’t find the clog and told me what I could do to keep it from happening again. All for under $200.

Hi all! I am organizing a scavenger hunt for a group of college first-years (out of state), starting at the sculpture garden. The participants can go as far into the park as they like but have to return within an hour. They have to have proof of their finds—photos, videos, or the item itself. I have intentionally included some whimsical ones that are more designed to generate a story they can tell afterwards.

This is my tentative list so far. Looking to mix things up a bit. What other things would you include on this list?

A sculpture with eyes

A sculpture with a tail

A sculpture with a shell

A sculpture that made you smile/laugh

A sculpture that freaked you out

A sculpture that made you think about yourself/home/family

A plant you have never seen before.

A stranger’s outfit you think is cool. (Can be an item of clothing)

Spanish moss

A turtle

A squirrel

Empty liquor/beer/wine bottle or can

A penny (obtained from anywhere)

Cypress tree knot

Someone on a bicycle

Someone from a Louisiana town outside of New Orleans

Someone who thinks possums are cute

An acorn
