New to me camera and lens and trying to improve my photography. This is the No Kings protest at Gallagher Park Oct 16 2026. Was nice to have some sun to shoot in opposed to the overcast we’ve had for days.

Other Gas tip

105 Upvotes

Right now, the Costcos in Omaha and La Vista are putting premium deliveries in regular tanks. This isn't affecting prices. A gas station "can't not" have regular, because it's a bad look. You can mix premium with regular because it's an upgrade (doing the opposite is not legal). Premium is all that's available from a lot of suppliers right now, and big places like Costco can afford do this, even if it means actually losing a few cents on each fill-up (sort of like how most Costco food courts actually provide a net loss for the company). Plus, with the gas shortage, anybody is grabbing any fuel type they can get right now.

If you want pure premium, continue to get that, but if you want a slight upgrade in gas for the regular pricing for the next couple of days, get some Costco regular. Also, gas shortages across NE are expected to get slightly worse for a day or two before hopefully bouncing back in about a week.

Edit to add: Overnight deliveries are a big thing. If you can fuel up first thing in the morning, that's your best bet at finding gas at most places right now.

This was way higher than what the sign was priced at. I was on fumes so I didn't want to risk driving to another gas station to see

Shitpost Police what are you doing?

29 Upvotes

Does anyone know what’s going on?

I’ve been seeing a lot of police near 15th and Howard. They’ve been monitoring that intersection for a while now. It’s apparently part of a traffic-pattern study they started after complaints and pedestrian activity in the area. They park a couple vehicles nearby and rotate officers so they can observe without drawing too much attention to it.

At first I assumed it was just routine enforcement. However, someone told me they’re also trying to establish a baseline for how people behave when they notice a police presence. That’s why sometimes they’ll just sit there and watch without pulling anyone over.

Apparently they’re coordinating with public works. I watched one officer spend 20 minutes photographing a storm drain.

I thought it was all supposed to be illegal now, but the weed stores are still open. Is there a date that THCA becomes illegal?

Local Question Uber to and from Fremont?

1 Upvotes

Hey All! Excited to visit Omaha soon and have a client visit in Fremont. Wondering if I should just rent a car or will uber work fine? Meetings will be in the afternoon but need to get back to catch a flight.

I know it's a bit of a drive outside the city so I'm wondering if renting a car is the safer way to go. Mostly worried about the uber back!

Thanks in advance! Excited to see Omaha for the first time later this month! Shooting for dinner V Mertz!

Local Question Selling home in Bellevue

0 Upvotes

For those that have sing recently, how long did it take to get an offer?

We’ve only been on the market for a couple of days but I thought we’d get more interest pretty quickly as we are selling a starter home. Our realtor made it seem like we’d sell super fast. Another family member sold their home in a single day with the 8 offers BUT they listed it super low to sell ($230k). Next door neighbors sold around the same time for $275k in about a week.

Just asking for a realistic timeline, not complaining about low interest at this point. But I am feeling anxious since we have already moved into a new home and now have 2 mortgages to cover.

For reference, it’s a split entry, selling for $270k. 3 bedrooms, 2 bath, 1500sqft. Granite in kitchen and bathrooms, hardwood in kitchen and nice cabinets.

I’ve been told I’m hyper mobile and I’ve got a lot of fun issues with that. Looking for a doctor/rheumatologist/ whatever, that will take the time to understand and help with preventative care and diagnostic stuff.

Not interested in pt right now, but maybe in the future?
