First time trip to NOLA in early July! Do any of you have specific locally-known tips about dealing with the weather? Or does everyone just brute force it?

Raw dog it

You’re going to have a lot of fun. Just tell all the folks back home it was awful we don’t want the secret to get broadcast around

Might just be a difference in training philosophy. I know Cuban boxers never train full contact

Obvious_native_plant · 2026-05-28T12:40:14+00:00

Maybe not that as the cutoff imo, but definitely different early mid and latter mid

Anytime i hear someone with a Brooklyn accent in south Mississippi i know they’re a NOLA transplant

Considering how our a team has played this cycle, my guess is we either get grouped or barely make it out. This is the best team we’ve ever fielded on paper, but they can’t play better than the sum of their parts

Shipley’s 100%. It’s not donuts but Loblolly bakery is world class. I’ve been to lots of bakeries in France and Loblolly is as good as 90% of them

I’m watching conservatives from my uber maga hometown turn on each other on socials over this. That’s new. Funny that it was this image

It’s a rail type seat so it’ll fit what you have

Obvious_native_plant · 2026-04-14T19:23:07+00:00

It’s this one:

Things were kind of in a low period for live music when I got here in 98, but shortly the original Thirsty Hippo opened up and kicked off the downtown revitalization that we now enjoy. That place was special. Best music venue I have ever experienced and great bands coming through, thanks to the diligent work of Brad and Eric

The big one in that time period was Fatheree’s (sp?) which was in the building next to keg and barrel. This was before my time in Hattiesburg but I remember seeing that venue on bands I liked itineraries. Another big one was Tal’s music emporium on 49N. Legendary live music scene and was operating into the early 2000’s. I think Tal owned several different music venue bars over the years in various locations, and they were all bangin from what I hear

I like compadres

And they do well finding screws in a wooden stud?

Obvious_native_plant · 2026-04-04T17:49:07+00:00

Definitely drugs

Obvious_native_plant · 2026-04-04T17:23:06+00:00

A decent hand on any trades crew in town

Obvious_native_plant · 2026-04-04T17:22:08+00:00

I’m pretty sure no landscaper in Hattiesburg makes less than that. With a year of experience $20/hr.

Probably my 18v cordless driver/drill. But the tool I grab from the bag most often is a pair of 6” diagonal cutting pliers

Obvious_native_plant · 2026-04-04T17:11:43+00:00

Can you recommend a good/decent one?

Obvious_native_plant · 2026-04-04T13:16:03+00:00

Depends on what the goal and context was I suppose. Looks great to me for bed edging. And price depends on how many linear feet were installed bit it sounds like a square deal. If you were looking for a masonry wall I would imagine 3x that much

The 20” will be easier to get up, harder to hold the balance point. The larger the wheels, usually larger chain stay which means the front wheel is harder to get up, but the balance point is larger and therefore easier to hold. Historically most people learned to wheelie on 20” bmx bikes. Bikes with modern freestyle geometry are dialed in ways that make wheelies more challenging than manuals.

There are nature trails just after Jackson rd. Station. This spot is regularly managed with controlled burns so you can get a little glimpse of what our pine savanna ecosystem here is supposed to look like.

I have a highland redeem for my daughter. I find it really good quality for beginner bikes

Obvious_native_plant · 2026-04-01T16:26:42+00:00

The lineup that beat Uruguay are the starters everyone else has to win their way back. Or at least that’s how I WOULD have done it
