Underrated - I feel like Grand Center doesn’t get enough love in these kinds of posts. You have the Fox for shows, Powell Hall for the symphony, everyone local knows about them. But you also have things like Circus Flora, the (free) Contemporary Art Museum that just wrapped up an Amy Sherald show, the Sheldon for art…

The Chippewa location is still open for sure, you’ll be able to grab custard and a Christmas tree soon too.

This is so weird to hear that people can’t find parking. I’ve never paid to park in Forest Park...but it does require a little walking or hopping on a scooter. I might park near Mac’s Local Eats, grab a burger and then walk over or park down past Art Hill or closer to the Skinker side. I know I’ll be walking in the…

Missouri was long without a second provider, thanks to “pro-life” asshats. Honestly, with the amount of restrictions placed on the one that has been open in St. Louis this whole time, you might as well drive a tiny bit further into Illinois where you don’t have to deal with all those restrictions. 

I read this book 2 summers ago for a reading challenge and immediately fell in love. It’s so great at covering so many topics while being light and charming too. There’s 2 other books in this saga (if you read the 2nd then you must read all 3 for the true conclusion) but you could also be content to just read this and…

I saw this title and flashed back to two drives for me. I had left work to go to my doctor for a 5 PM Friday appointment that they told me I needed to come for. They told me to bring my parents too since I was just 19. Then in the office they told me I had cancer. I insisted on being the one to drive my car back home.…

I just want to knock out Capitalism early. I feel like Wellness will get taken out in the next round. Neither are going places.

Saw it at a used book store and snatched the old version right up.

He shopped the story first and got no bites, then people reached out and then he released it. All confirmed by local reporters on twitter. This guy is a liar, just like the governor. They’re both pieces of shit.

The ex was shopping the story around to a lot of outlets, the Kansas City and St. Louis newspapers and at least one NPR affiliate have confirmed that. They didn’t bite. So word gets around in the business on that and then people in the industry and in politics reach out, both to the ex and the woman to try and see if…

Oh man, I hated Three Billboards. I had some major issues with its portrayal of race and especially redemption and also the tone the movie, since they wouldn’t commit to certain choices which maybe could have taken it up to the next level. My hope is that it does better with the foreign press versus local guilds…

I’ve only seen the first three episodes but it’s a total delight. I planned to watch it solo but after about 10 minutes my husband dropped what he was doing and declared I had to watch it with him because even he was sucked in.

This is how I see it. I love my local museums in my midwest city because every single one is free. I mean, I pay via taxes but it’s actually part of why I moved from the suburbs to the city. Last Friday I left work early and wanted to feel calm so I just stopped into the art museum to see 2-3 areas that I knew they…

I got the book as a gift from a person who knows I’d never admit I wanted it. Husband mocked me. Husband now makes most of our recipes from it. The Pad Grapow Chicken is so easy and flavorful! 

If you want to damage your relationship with your children, gaslight them and insist they devote all their energy to you during that small window of vacation time they get this time of year. Maybe quit your antidepressants too. Don’t listen to your adult childrens’ wishes, especially when your oldest asks you if you…

They’re on it. A judge just basically told the city police to go to mediation with the ACLU because they fucked up big and if they weren’t willing to consent to an agreement the court would rule against them.

Unsolicited swag is fair game. But I regularly see bloggers reach out and partner with a brand, ask for free items or a gift card to purchase their free items, and then resell immediately. That feels shady. It also makes me doubt the reputation of that source even more.

That was my immediate thought upon hearing the news.

My friend has reached a point in her career where she’s only managed by female managers, works in the field alone, and sometimes has to train women in very remote areas on things while in the field.

Don’t look into legal representation later. Enforce your rights now. Forever 21 will have to pay your fees in almost any settlement agreement. By all means use social media to highlight this but don’t fuck around on getting a lawyer because you can even be entitled to their profits from the shirt depending on some…
