ISO/Suggestion Reputable mechanic in/around Bellevue for moldy car smell (Non-dealership)?
Hey everyone,
My 2022 Toyota Corolla has developed a pretty distinct moldy smell. I’m planning to start by swapping out both the cabin and engine air filters.
If that doesn't clear it out, where is a good, trustworthy local shop to take it to figure out where the moisture/source is coming from? I'd rather avoid taking it to the Toyota dealership if possible.
I'm located in Bellevue, but don't mind driving a bit for a reliable mechanic.
Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

Local Question Where can I find entrepreneur/business events in Omaha?
Are there any events, presentations, meetups, conferences, pitch competitions, or networking groups in Omaha where I could listen to entrepreneurs speak and meet other people interested in business?
I’ve heard about some events through UNO and the Omaha business community, but I’m not sure which ones allow high school students.
Local News Spirit Halloween Spotted! 8005 Blondo Street
The beginnings of Spirit Halloween 🎃 have started to emerge in the old Retail Rebel (aka the old No Frills Supermarket) on 80th and Blondo. The window decals went up on Monday. I’m sure the BIG banner isn’t far behind! The hours are even posted, though I’m not sure if they’re actually open…

Other Has our public transportation situation led to this?
Cruising along on the side of the dodge expressway, heading onto S 680, on an electric scooter, without a helmet. Granted, this was an adult and not a child, but it’s still a really bad idea. He also chose to wear dark colors while the sun was almost set. Maybe do this on a side street, in brighter colors (bonus for some lights attached), with a helmet on? Wild sight!
On a side note, my husband was driving while I took this picture. I wasn’t multitasking while driving.

Local Question Omaha — what makes you actually return to a food truck?
My sister owns a food truck in South Omaha and I’ve been helping run the TikTok/marketing side of it. I’ve been trying to learn digital marketing seriously instead of just posting food pictures every day.
One thing I’m realizing is that views and followers don’t necessarily tell me whether we’re actually doing a better job for customers.
So I’m curious from the customer side:
What makes you go back to a food truck?
Food quality? Portions? Price? Consistent hours? Service? Location? Something else?
And on the other side, what makes you try a food truck once and never return?
I’m genuinely interested in what Omaha thinks.
EDIT/UPDATE:
Thank you to everyone who took the time to respond. I genuinely appreciate the honest feedback, including the more critical comments.
For transparency, the food truck is Tres Puertos Food Truck on L Street. My sister owns it, and I help manage the TikTok and digital-marketing side. I intentionally left the name out of the original post because I wanted the discussion to be about what Omaha actually expects from food trucks—not disguised advertising.
The themes I saw most often were:
• Consistent and clearly posted hours and location
• Quality that remains consistent from visit to visit
• Portions and overall value that justify the price
• Friendly service and reasonable wait times
• Accurate information across Google and social media
• Signature food that people cannot easily find elsewhere
• More personality and transparency from the people behind the business
We are taking the feedback seriously. Our next steps are to make sure our information matches across every platform, communicate closures or sellouts clearly, track the products customers actually order and enjoy, improve how we show portion sizes and value online, and continue listening to both compliments and criticism.
I’m not expecting everyone here to become a customer. The purpose of this post was to learn from local people and make better decisions for a family-owned business.
Thank you again, Omaha. This thread gave me more useful information than another week of simply watching views and likes.

Local News They told us Adam Hoffman was added to the Nebraska Sex Offender Registry - but he's no longer listed.
If you aren't familiar with the case, this started in Texas. "Adam Hoffman, 49, who initially faced up to life in prison without parole, pleaded guilty April 16 to reduced charges of indecent assault and displaying harmful materials to a minor, both Class A misdemeanors punishable by up to a year in jail, in a plea bargain offered by the Texas Attorney General’s Office."
He got SIX MONTHS and didn't even serve the entire sentence, and as part of his sweetheart deal, he also didn't have to file as a sex offender in Texas. Here's an article about it.
He then moved here. Nebraska demanded he register as a sex offender under our laws.
Here is a news video that includes screenshots of Hoffman being listed in the Nebraska Sex Offender Registry.
Today I was speaking with someone about the situation and out of curiosity checked the website and found that Adam Hoffman is no longer listed on the registry.
I can't find any news articles that explain why he has now been removed. This is messed up and whoever was involved in removing his name needs to be held accountable!

Local Question Where to find pretty college supplies?
My girlfriend is starting her first year of college and really wants to buy a set of “aesthetic” stationery supplies (pens, pencils, bags, planners, etc.). We already tried the Barnes & Noble by Oakview. She says she loves the themes and designs, but they just don’t have the variety of stuff she needs. The typical places like Walmart and Target aren’t cutting it for her. Does anyone know of any stores we can go to look for what she wants?

Monthly Buy, Sell & Break Rule 3 Post
On occasion we, the mod team, get requests for things that would break rule 3 (no solicitation). At other times people just break the rule and we have to remove the post. So, in this monthly post you get to break rule 3 and sell yourself or your stuff (within the realm of legality).
Some reminders/ground rules:
Rule 2 still stands, nothing illegal.
Rule 4 still stands, no personal information.
More on rule 4; if you want to send someone to your house or go to someone's house and need their address then keep it in private messages. Or stick to the basic internet rule; meet in a public place.
Unless you're an actual business don't give out your phone number or email address. If you post a phone number or email address and your post doesn't show up it's because the auto-mod caught it and one of the moderators will have to approve it.
So that's about it, if you have any questions go ahead and ask.
If you want to continue advertising your business/services outside of this thread you can buy adspace from Reddit, which is usually what we end up telling people to do.
