St. Louis is the Midwest, not the south. That doesn’t mean we’re not full of racists but it’s inaccurate geographically to describe this city as southern.

Which one of you is from STL? I’m intrigued.

I have people who tell me marijuana could have killed all of my cancer and I didn’t need to poison myself with chemo. Oh ok, I’ll trust your high self over my award-winning oncologist and my 11-year clear record and you do you.

Zofran was such a pain of an expense. When I was on chemo I was on Zofran and Emend to help with the nausea and together they cost more than my chemo drugs. Still, I never once vomited during chemo. Well, that’s a lie. One day in the middle of the 2-week gap between treatments I decided to eat a large pizza solo…

My friend works for USAID and in the international countries she visits this is a huge part of their initiatives. For many women, hair salons are the only places they go that their husbands or brothers or fathers aren’t with them. Many women spend hours at salons for treatments and it’s a place where they can freely…

I’m kind of weirdly in the mood for this kind of ridiculous movie. Then my firm said they’re renting two screens, giving us free food, soda and booze, and I was all in.

Don’t do the IR thermometer! He’ll have so much fun and will try to take it with you places and you have to say no and he’ll get all sad. But seriously, my guy loves his and I got one for my brother too and his doubles as a laser pointer to harass a cat with.

I alternate between crying, drinking heavily, eating too much, cutting checks to charities, holding my dog and telling her I love her, listening to loud rock so I can scream along, listening to Adele so I can cry, listening to Kanye (Kanye2020!), walking outside, binge watching, and sometimes going to work all day. I…

Hey! Missouri has wine country and some fun cities and Branson and...I see your point.

I get it. In my 20s, I went to a state college that gave me scholarships, saved every spare bit, and often went very cheap while my friends were like “what’s an extra $75 at this bar when I have tens of thousands of student loans? I’ll just roll it in” so it was awkward then when I had to duck out early.

Kline is a St. Louis native and graduated high school here.

I went to my junior prom that year. I wore the Jane eye shadow on the right (mist-ified), a blue dress that leaned turquoise but still was pastel enough, and some shimmer lotion all up on top since I was rocking spaghetti straps and wanted to glisten. My necklace was from the Icing which had just opened and I let some…

I’m probably not a troll.

I’m a Hodgkin’s Survivor. I’ve heard of so many people with those symptoms being delayed in diagnosis. I was lucky I presented with giant swollen lymph nodes or else it might have delayed diagnosis. They also like to needle biopsy people which produces far more false negatives over surgical biopsies. It’s amazing so…

She just needs another Todd Akin to run against her. He handed the election to her.

Davines Love is my find of the year. My stylist left the area and I hate finding new ones so I haven’t gotten my haircut in months and yet my hair is still pulling it off. I have curly 2c/3a frizzy hair and I just survived a weekend at an outdoor music festival and my hair still looked amazing. I hate how dependent I…

I wondered about that, it’s been driving me crazy this week.

You can re-review restaurants. I often review a place the first time I go but if I notice the place goes downhill I can post an update. I often use my updates to mention that I’ve been to a bar 10+ times now, here’s my favorite drinks, here’s some specials that aren’t on the horribly outdated website, and here’s some…

There’s only 1 not recommended review by someone with more than 3 reviews. That’s pretty typical of how the yelp filters work.

I can’t even see half of this font because the page formatting is off. Maybe that’s a blessing.
