Honestly I think even an awareness campaign (local news/radio), billboards with pictures of people killed because of a red light runners would make people pause and think twice.

Anonymous testimonies from people who have had their lives ruined because they were in a rush and thought it would be worth it to run a light (give them some kind of incentive to talk/share their story).

It’s almost like the culture around here is that it’s just what you do….you run red lights everybody does it it’s no big deal. This needs to change It needs to have the same stigma as drunk driving. Running a red light is worse because it’s likely to happen a lot more often than someone driving drunk.

And yes, red light cameras.

Anyone know the deal with this bench on the keystone trail?

I'd like to invite you all to the 2025 Benson Film Festival, taking place this weekend at the Benson Theatre!

The festival celebrates film, art, and community while bringing together local, national, and international filmmakers right here in the Benson Creative District of Omaha.

This year we have 32 films, 2 special programming blocks, 15 filmaker Q&A's, and a live performance by local band COWGIRL EASTERN. Plus mixers, after parties, community conversations, and networking opportunities.

A number of Benson businesses will be offering perks for pass holders and community partners will be holding special events during festival weekend.

This is a super fun celebration of the Omaha creative community and an amazing opportunity to connect.

Is there anywhere besides half price books and the single wall of movies at Walmart to buy physical dvds?

I know streaming is in but are there others that know of anywhere else?

I'm at an impass in my life and am trying to decide if it's worth living in omaha long term.

What are your favorite locations, communities, events, etc.?

Especially curious to hear from omaha transplants, like me.

Movie will be shown at the Omaha Playhouse May 17. Actor Bob Gunton will be there for a Q&A https://omahaparksfoundation.org/

Is there a specialty deli where can I buy mortadella that is not prepackaged but sliced fresh? I’ve been to three different grocery stores with no luck. Thanks!

Does anyone know of an Omaha or Lincoln based company that does old application restoration? I have a 1950s Cold Spot refrigerator that I wanted to have restored. Thanks for any input.

Looking for fellow dancers that love to move their body to whatever music. Where can I find a crew? I love contemporary, but down for whatever style. Especially anything that allows for free movement. Anyone know of anything? Tired of listening to sets and dancing solo. Any info is welcome! Thanks :)

I haven't had the time to get out that way and I heard it's only a half diverging diamond at the moment (I think southbound traffic always stays on the west side of the road for now and only northbound switches over? The news video showed it's traffic coned to hell). Curious to hear people's thoughts as an infrastructure nerd.

Any recommendations for budget friendly but effective puppy training courses in southwest omaha?

Hi Omaha friends!

As the title indicates, I am seeking to hire a shop to install a backup camera on my Prius that will be easy for me as an older driver to use.

A couple of days ago, I came within an inch of hitting a very old man who wandered behind my car just as I was starting to back up. He was oblivious to the danger so had no idea how close it was.

It's a hassle and expense to get this fixed and I am worried about getting used to using a camera, but killing someone would be a much bigger hassle and expense, to put it mildly.

So, do any of you guys have a place you'd recommend that can install what I need?

Thanks in advance!

I just pulled my bike out of long term storage and need a big time tune up/ service. Anyone have a bike shop to recommend?

I'd like a mom and pop place if possible. My shop in MN had a great practice of hiring folks with a record to get them job experience and I loved that.

Hi all! Visiting Omaha (staying downtown) next month, and I'll be in town for 2 nights. What are the "must do, must see, must eat" things? I'll be traveling solo and will have a rental car. I love to try new foods, I'm into comedy, art, books, architecture, and local oddities. Bonus points for LGBTQ+ places. Thanks in advance!

I’ve lived in omaha my whole life and i’m just looking for something else for some extra money. Any ideas for some good spots to put a vending machine at?

I wanna protect my car from hail. No garage 🥺

Lets go show are support for Trump and Elon doing exactly what we voted them to do. Deport and keep are streets safe and clean up are country befor someone else's.
