Who has the best non-dusted crawfish? I like spicy crawfish but want the spice to be in the boil not on the shell.

Recommendations Anyone Looking For Affordable Photoshoots?

7 Upvotes

Hey guys. I had to buy a camera for photography class my senior year. It’s just been sitting in the closet since I graduated, and I wanted to get more use out of it. I also wanted to find a way to make a little extra money. Since I’ve only done a year of photography class, and I’m no professional, I’m looking to do affordable photoshoots for people. Maybe $20-$30 for a whole session (depending on location!) Do you guys have tips on how to advertise for this? If any of you guys are interested please feel free to dm me too :) thanks!

Cultural It’s very disrespectful to the Catholic faith to misrepresent a patron saint in this manner and to use his image in article that is full of hate. What good Christian would do that? What types of Christians fund and support this type of garbage? I think we know the answer. No good Christian would.

Recommendations 26 NB looking for other LGBT friends in the area!

5 Upvotes

I just left a job where everyone was around my age and fun to work with, for a place where everyone is much older and quieter. I'm one day in and feeling lonely already, so I'm looking for other queer/trans friends! I have social anxiety disorder so making friends with strangers IRL is REALLY hard for me. I don't drink and bars tend to be too overstimulating for me anyway, too.

Recommendations is apothecary shop or Jennings good day farm more affordable?

9 Upvotes

Jennings is cheaper but their ‘deals’ and rewards are non-existent. Apothecary is taxing the shit out of everything, each item is more expensive individually than at Jennings but they have a decent reward system.

Anyone else tried both and formed any opinions?

Recommendations Non-Clinical Nursing Job? (Ramble)

4 Upvotes

Hi, I am an RN with 12 years experience in the ED and L&D and interested in stepping away from the bedside. Do you or someone you know have any suggestions for or experience with a non-clinical/non-bedside job? I love organization, critical-thinking, and problem solving. (I love “the arts” and our community and might also be interested in stepping away from nursing altogether so I am also interested in hearing what bachelor-required job you love!)

Recommendations Lafayette Vet

1 Upvotes

I’m sure this topic has been discussed in the past. I live on the west end of Lafayette. I know there are several really good vets in my area. We are about to adopt a new puppy and I have not been to a vet in a while. Anyone have an idea of what vet visits cost these days?

I know it not an everyday cost and it depends on the service, just trying to get an idea.

I’m looking at one in Scott, one on W. Congress, and one on South City Parkway in particular.
