ball
noun: large formal gathering for social dancing #RexComus

I’m definitely seeing double dippers #RexComus

Outrageous

Ok this curtsy line is the longest ever #RexComus

You can tell who’s been practicing their curtsies #RexComus

Every year

Does the military part always go on this long? #RexComus

Here’s the Space Force lyrics if you want to sing along: We're the mighty watchful eye,
Guardians beyond the blue.
The invisible front line,
Warfighters brave and true.
Boldly reaching into space,
There's no limit to our sky.
Standing guard both night and day,
We're the Space Force from..#RexComus

Question: In the old days, was the Rex ball actually a ball with dancing instead of just sitting? #RexComus

Seeing all the Halloween stuff already in the stores in July actually comforts me because it makes me feel like we can make it past the peak of hurricane season 🎃

From the captain of Orpheus:
“The Executive Board and I concluded that, due to the new tariffs and the general rise in costs, the Krewe of Orpheus had no other option but to increase membership dues for our 2026 parade. Our valued members have come to expect a 1st class procession and ball.”

Saw my first buck moth caterpillar of 2025 today 😭

I thought she said fat toys

Even Rex is raising his own chickens now. #rexcomus

I guess every parade this year is running late?

A tractor should be pulling something that size rather than a mule, poor thing

Anyone know what’s going on at Tchoupitoulas Walmart? A friend of mine says they’re evacuating the building

I just heard Nicondra Norwood say on Fox8 that the hurricane hunters are checking out the incoming snowstorm and now I’m really freaked out

❄️Tip 5: Another way to get out when stuck in snow is to take out one of your rubber floor mats and tuck it right next to the stuck tire to get traction

❄️Tip 4: If you run off the road into a ditch or otherwise get stuck in snow, don’t floor it to get out. Rock gently back and forth by alternating between drive and reverse, pressing lightly on the accelerator, creating a pendulum effect until you’re up and out

❄️Tip 3: Avoid slamming your brakes and sharp turns, both of which can make you spin or slide.

❄️Tip 2: Drive much slower than usual. Leave extra space between you and the car in front of you.

Growing up in Oklahoma, I learned some things about driving on ice that might be useful if you’re not used to it. ❄️Tip 1: Don’t drive unless you have to. Even people with experience driving on ice can have problems.

Antoine’s in Gretna doesn’t get enough attention for its delicious king cake

Glad to see @nolanews.bsky.social has lifted its paywall today

Octopuses are aliens, right?

Here’s an interesting nugget from @pewresearch.org. The number of Americans ages 100 and older is projected to more than quadruple over the next 30 years, from 111,000 to 422,000, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. Today, 78% of the nation’s centenarians are women.

Did you KNOW President Jimmy Carter campaigned on National Health Insurance? Ronald Reagan snickers in the background in the 1980 Presidential debates when President Carter mentions it.

An AMAZING Humanitarian & perhaps a 2nd term might of ensured a RESPONSE to the AIDS Epidemic. RIP & THANK YOU.🙏💜

Anais St. John did her Donna Summer show at Old Point Bar last night and I haven’t seen that place that packed in years
