I just saw the Clay Higgins political ad. That is the most disgusting thing I’ve seen. He is showing people physically being killed. Please vote this embarrassment out.

What’s up folks! I’m looking for some local contractors with either metal or wood framing experience to help out at my job. I work at US Frame Factory and we need some help on some upcoming orders in our pre fabrication area. I’m looking for a solid group of like 10 guys/gals for up to 4-6 months. Thanks in advance!!!

Hello everyone,

I am soon moving to Lafayette for work in offshore, first time in US.

can you please recommend good areas to live in, rent budget is 1-1.2k USD

Appreciate any advice regarding the move.

Thanks in advance.

I feel like everyone I go to that I ask to trim my beard up, they seem to treat it as an afterthought tacked on to the end, and it always comes out looking scraggly and uneven. I've been to C Wolf, Refinery, and Refined Oak. But I realize it always depends on who you're actually getting to do the cut. I'd like someone who really pays attention to what they're doing and doesn't just run their clippers around the sides and bottom.

Hi guys my partner and I are from Denham and we are taking a day trip to Lafayette on the 31st for the farmers and artisan market. We don't know much of the area but we wanna make the most of our day and would like to go to eat and do some other sort of event or festival in the area. Does anyone have any sort of suggestions for food and events or is there a website that would show stuff going on for that weekend?

Does anybody know the best way to get rid of a large amount of styrofoam packing trays in the area?

I really hate to put it in a landfill and I have so much of it that dissolving it with acetone would take lots of time and a large container.

Anyone know of some Halloween events or some spooky places going on Saturday? What are some spooky stories you've heard?

I'd be looking for a budget-friendly option.

Looking for a tough but reasonably priced divorce attorney to handle a case with only community property to settle. Recommendations are desperately needed!!!

Please help in locating my cockatiel in New Iberia. Check your yards, roofs and trees. If you can, take the time to play the cockatiel flock calls

My father in law is looking for a place to repair some antique pocket watches. I suggested a jeweler near us, but said I'd reach out to the wise folks here. Any recommendations?

Among those who listed Presler’s home on their voter registration is Heather Langley. In an article she wrote for Nola.com in November 2024, Langley was described as a ‘business and political consultant’ based in New Iberia, Louisiana. Records filed with the Federal Election Commission also indicate that she once resided in Crestview, Florida.

Jesus Christ what is wrong with their audio?!?! This channel’s news coverage has already been pretty lackluster but trying to watch the 5PM news right now and the audio issues are unbearable. I keep waiting for Max Headroom to pop up on the screen.

Most of the jobs I come across in our area either work with the public or are industrial. Those roles matter, but I would also love to see more of the office, admin, professional, and corporate openings that local companies have but rarely get in front of the right people. One reason, I suspect, is that posting on the big job sites can be a hassle or a cost for smaller employers.

I am thinking about starting a simple, free local board to lower that barrier. Here is the rough plan:

• Anyone can share a job they come across through a short Google Form, and employers are especially welcome to post their own openings.
• I will review every submission before it is added to the list, so the board stays free of spam and scam listings.
• Vetted listings go into a shared Google Sheet that anyone can view without signing up.
• I will also do a regular round-up of local office jobs I find, using some tools I have already built.
• If there is interest, I may add an email list so people can get the round-up in their inbox.

It would start small and stay simple, with no accounts, no fees, and no collecting applicant information. Applicants would go straight to the employer.

I would like to hear from you:

• Would you use something like this, either as a job seeker or as an employer?
• What would make it useful to you?
• What are we missing, and what would you want to see on it?

All ideas are welcome. If there is enough interest, I will get a first version up and share it here.

hey! been living here for a little bit but i'm having issues finding events me and my friends would want to go to. we found out dogmilk is doing a show so that's cool, but does anyone else have suggestions or info on what else might be happening that's worth going to? specifically nothing child-oriented please, and we already know about greenroom and the library and all that. thanks :]

Mid 20s male trying to find possible side hustles in the Lafayette area. Not like DoorDash kind of side hustle. Something I can build and scale , whether it be digital, in person a service of whatever. Just wondering if and what ideas could possibly be achieved in this area. Not afraid of work at all so even if it’s physical labor I’m game. Thanks in advance

Not interested in cropped ears, but I can't seem to find any breeders that will budge on that.

I want to take my kids on a boat tour of lake Martin. Prefer something shaded to ride in and educational. Anybody have a good experience to report with any place in particular?
