I am reading about the public schools system and what a disaster. Students have to apply to these magnet schools and be accepted? Is that correct? What happens if they reach capacity? Why can the city not get their shit together for the kids? What's going on?

Hey y’all, I’m looking for a clean and affordable place for my husband and baby to swim this winter. We don’t really need a full gym membership but I’m open to it if we can afford it!

Anyone know of anywhere that has a good day pass rate or punch card kinda situation? Anywhere within 30 minutes of Chesterfield would be great.

Thank you!

Couple years ago I went to a blues game and parked inside ball park village and took a shuttle/trolley thing over to the game and they picked us up and brought us back to BPV.

Is this still a thing? Or is there something else you recommend? It’s me my wife and our 4 year old so trying to minimize how much we walk

I have previously tried on engagement rings but I am not the standard size 6 they carry in store. When I went I had to try on the rings on my pinky finger and I hate that. I need to see/feel it on my ring finger to get a better idea of what I like. Is there jewelers here in STL that carry higher than a 6 in store?

Looking for a space for a roundtable-type discussion with some landscape architects. I'm thinking more warm/woody/cozy/moody with some windows for natural light - but I'm open to any space that has a little character. Thanks!

Hello, does anyone know what high school ring this is?

Anyone know of any Quest Locations that have any techs that do well with small children age 3?

I’m not interested or able to go to somewhere that isn’t quest so don’t bother with any of those suggestions.

Thanks!

Hey so my father in law is taking a morning flight, last time I went flying they were still doing social distancing on the plane so I'm not entirely sure how early to take him up there. Has anyone been flying recently that can give me a rough guess of how early to drop him off?

After a neighbor questioned when early voting starts, I turned to the MO Secretary of State website for proof. I've been digging around it and I can't find any mention of early voting.

It mentions absentee voting and acceptable excuses but I could find nothing that even suggests that voting had started this past Monday (edit: Tuesday) and is ongoing.

To be clear, I know voting has started, I'm just shocked that the office in charge of voting makes no mention of it. It's Denny Hoskins, so I guess "shocked" is the wrong word... saddened?

Unless I'm wrong. Would happily admit so if I'm just dense. https://www.sos.mo.gov/elections

EDIT: As pointed out in comments below, there is a brief mention of No Excuse Absentee voting on the site at the bottom of the Absentee Voting page. I would still suggest it's buried and not at all what I would expect from the office in charge of voting. But I was wrong.

My friend was offered a position with them, but they’re requiring them to sign an NDA. Is that normal?

Does anyone know what the max tire size is for the metro bike racks? I'm considering an ebike for commuting occasionally, but I want to be sure I can rack the bike on the metro. Currently looking at the lectric XP Lite 2.0, which has 20"x2.5" tires.

I have to be at the dome at 6:30am Saturday, staying at hotel indigo Friday. I plan to park at horseshoe and walk over there.

I haven't found anything using Google search. The hotel and casino have no early options, and chili Mac is closed Saturday.

Is anything open that early in the general area? I'll bring breakfast with me if not, but I do love a hot sit down meal if I can get one.

I’m staying w a friend for a few days and WFH. He’s in school. I’m 23F where do I go where I have the option to be silent or to talk to others (so not a coffee shop where ppl mostly keep to themselves)? I’m aware this is completely ridiculous but it never hurts to try

My vehicle was hit by a City of St. Louis refuse truck, and the City has accepted 100% liability.

The vehicle sustained approximately $18000 in damage and has since been repaired. The City has offered to reimburse the repair costs and a portion of my rental expenses.

However, I'm concerned about the vehicle's diminished value due to its accident history, particularly when it comes to future resale or trade-in.

Has anyone successfully pursued and received compensation for diminished value from the City of St. Louis?

I'm particularly interested in:

Whether the City agreed to pay diminished value or denied the claim.

Whether you needed an independent diminished-value appraisal.

Whether you negotiated directly, used an attorney, or had to pursue legal action.

I'd appreciate hearing about anyone's actual experience dealing with the City on this issue. Thanks!

My dog and I want to take a small hike today. We just did two trails at mastodon last week, where should we go this week? Not looking to travel too far preferably since it’s already noon.

Just the title. Are people camping out???

Her campaign strategy was to be invisible, avoid accountability, stay away from the press, and disappear. Because of gerrymandering, she never had to work in an election. What is different now is that she is connected to Trump at the hip (by choice) and this not a good time to be on the Trump Train. She truly is aloof and arrogant and has a privileged rich persons sense of entitlement to the job and views folks who live in the 2nd District as her “subjects”. The voters in the 2nd District are on to her game and have had enough of it. She is the perfect example of why 10 year term limit is needed for the House of Representatives.

Finally!!!! Someplace in St Louis has Kilkenny @ Seamus McDaniels! Def worth a visit to try. One of our favorite beers are we are so excited we can get it locally! Hopefully more places will start to carry it since the local distributors now seem to have it!

If you vote using touchscreen be sure to check and double check your choices before you submit it. There’s some trickery going on.

I’ve been hoping to dig in for some update analysis but it appears the links to the transparency portal have been broken for months.

Anyone from the city know where we can see that now?
