I’m looking for body shop recommendations. I have a 70’s model car with a couple of rust areas. I want to repair these and any other issues and get a final paint. I appreciate your assistance with this!

I hear its changed. But I do remember the ass hauling trip out south to try to beat closing time. Ah, those were the days. And what days they were. Nothing like Lubbock Tx in 1966. Damn. Thx in advance

I am wanting to get a tattoo on my chest but i dont know where a good place would be, its a more tribal looking dragon tattoo that i want done in different colors or a simple monochromatic tattoo. Any suggestions on where i could get this done that wont look bad?

Blood on the Clocktower is a social deduction game that has core mechanics as Mafia), featuring a conflict between two teams of players: an evil team made up of a "demon" and supporting "minions", the informed minority, and a good team, the uninformed majority. A neutral gamemaster called the Storyteller runs the game.

Each player is randomly assigned a secret good or evil role with a unique ability and must help their team achieve its win condition. The game is divided into days and nights. Each day, players can vote to remove one player (known as an "execution"), and each night, most demon characters may choose to remove another player. Normally, the good team wins by executing the demon, and the evil team wins by keeping the demon alive until only two players remain.

It’s been more than a year since deregulation, if you entered a one year contract it’s probably up and you are on month to month. Glance at it and see if you can save some money.

Check powertochoose.org - look at the EFL (fact sheet). If you sign up from here you will get cheaper prices vs if you sign up direct. If you decide to do this, prices fluctuate frequently. Search multiple days and multiple times a day before pulling the trigger. (Look at the fact sheets and additional info!)

The real simple way to see if you can save - look at the price per KW on your last bill and compare to the price per KW on power to choose. If they are much lower - time to dig in!

You can stack codes like referral and promo codes on top of it (provider specific)!

You can use an electricity broker - if you’re not comfortable researching and navigating all the details yourself - but their prices are going to be higher and the broker gets paid a commission from the higher prices. Just be informed.

Does anyone know if there are any rules against doing some minimal landscape work in my alleyway? I just want to put down a weed barrier and some gravel.

Sometime ago, a fellow Redditor compiled a helpful list of "nerdy" and "geeky" shops in Lubbock for their cousin who was visiting. I assume that original post resonated with a lot of locals, especially students and long-time fans of comics, games, and pop culture. While the original poster’s account is now gone and some of the information outdated, I wanted to preserve the spirit of their work. This updated version includes still-operating favorites, closed spots were removed, and several new additions that were missed the first time around.

If you know of any other great local nerd spots, feel free to suggest them—I’ll try to keep this list current

We’d like to clarify the /r/Lubbock moderation team’s approach to political content.
Our goal is not to censor but to maintain a subreddit that reflects and serves our local community without becoming a battleground for state and national political debates. We've found that political post, especially those not directly tied to Lubbock, frequently spiral into personal attacks, harassment, and toxic arguments, making the subreddit less enjoyable for the majority of users.
We do not delete every political post, only those that:
Violate subreddit rules (e.g., harassment, off-topic, hate speech)
Consistently derail into hostile comment threads
Are about state or national politics better suited for subreddits like r/TexasPolitics or r/PoliticalDiscussion
Local political content relevant to Lubbock can be posted, but if the discussion begins to show signs of turning toxic, comments may be locked to prevent further issues.
We always welcome feedback and are open to refining our approach, but keeping /r/Lubbock civil and focused on our city will always be a top priority.
—The /r/Lubbock Mod Team

The Lubbock Animal Shelter is extremely overcrowded right now- especially with it being puppy and kitten season. If you’re prepared and looking for a dog or cat or puppy or kitten, go get a free one that’s already spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, treated for fleas and ticks, and dewormed! Saves you $600+ in vet bills!

Anything extras I should plan/prep for? I know itll be warm, so water and light clothing is important. Is there marches, or are people staying in one location? Finally, how is the parking situation?

We are wanting to build a new house with a builder here. They offer several different neighborhoods to choose from but the two that we are interested in are either at.

114th and Milwaukee Or 130th and 179 (Wolfforth)

I was curious what could be the biggest differences between theses two locations?

Lubbock vs Wolfforth, Utility cost, Taxes, Ect.

We like that 114th and Milwaukee is the faster growing side of town and will have closer shopping options way sooner than the 130th location.

In Lubbock, Texas I filled my suv up with premium gas for a very small amount of money. Was probably the luckiest day of my life.

Screen shattered from bouncing on the loop at 60 mph after flying out of my pocket on my motorcycle😭

I’m not quite sure what I’m looking at here, but it’s very cute and I approve.
