While JC the wildcat might say "there's not much to do" in the LBK, there are a ton of great and cute places to eat; many of which are family owned and well priced. This is the top 10 best places to eat in Lubbock, Texas.

1. Rain Cafe

Located on 50th street, the Rain Cafe is almost a hole in the wall. However they serve amazing breakfast all day and their crusted french toast is a classic favorite.

2. Capital Pizza

Back in the middle of Tech Terrace is Capital Pizza, a very popular place among Tech students and arguably some of the best pizza that you will ever have in your life. While sometimes there is a wait depending on the time you go, it is always well worth it.

3. Taqueria Autlan

Also located on 50th street is Taqueria Autlan: a small restaurant with big taste. Taqueria Autlan has amazing and authentic Mexican food.

4. Italian Garden

Situated downtown on Avenue J is Italian Garden, some of the absolute best Italian food at a very reasonable price. Known for their pink sauce and great service, Italian Garden is must-eat in LBK.

5. George's Cafe

Down on 4th street is George's Cafe, with burgers and breakfast all day. It's also not super popular, so it is a perfect place for Sunday's brunch instead of waiting hours at Pancake House.

6. Choochai

If you are looking for Thai food then Choochai is incredible. Down on 19th street sits this little treasure, best known for their spicy pad thai.

7. Spanky's

Spanky's, right across from Texas Tech, is one of the most famous and recognizable restaurants in Lubbock, Texas with their fried cheese and the he-man-woman-hater.

8. One Guy

Also located both across from the Texas Tech and also on 50th street is One Guy. Buy pizza by the slice or order a whole pie, either way it's relatively fast and delicious.

9. Sugar Brown's

While not necessarily a restaurant, Sugar Brown's Coffee Shop on 19th street has amazing baked goods and kolaches that make for the perfect breakfast or brunch.

10. Holly Hop

The Holly Hop on 34th street is cute 1950's style dinner with incredible ice-cream and a working jukebox, it's a perfect first date destination.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
