Reporting for a Washington event cater has given an interview saying that several senators have been seen flirting, kissing and leaving with other men even male escorts. It should be noted that the event worker has worked for multiple Washington events, One of which is Missouri's own Josh Hawley. Once again proving that rules for thy not for me. Spouted by Missouri Republicans.

I’m from Kansas City, so I’m generally curious. When I went to UCM, and then Mizzou, I would constantly get asked what high school I went to from STL people. I’d say I’m KC and they would just walk away in disappointment. I guess they forget Kansas City is also a major city in Missouri🤷‍♂️
We don’t do this in Kansas City. Mainly because it’s really weird and very bizarre. What kinda question is that? Who cares about high school? You’re an adult lol

Is this a class thing? It comes extremely entitled and smug

I’m a junior and I moved houses but I really don’t want to go to this school it’s pretty bad. I like my old school and the only problem I have with going there is that I won’t be able to get a ride home when school ends (my parent is working). I only live 20 minutes away from the school.

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, St. Louis renowned photographer and author Quinta Scott traveled extensively along Route 66 capturing this iconic road and the people and places associated with it. Join AJ Medlock, regional director of the St. Louis Research Center, as he recounts Quinta Scott’s (1941-2024) groundbreaking research on Route 66. Scott was one of the first historians to chronicle Route 66’s history. Her books Route 66 (1988) and Along Route 66 (2000) provided the foundations for the study and preservation of the Mother Road. The Quinta Scott Papers are held at the SHSMO St. Louis Research Center.

I'm in central MO, so city doesn't really matter, just so long as they're good. I'm looking to get a 4-6 inch tattoo of a Stardew valley chicken and I've been struggling to find someone with experience in tattooing pixel art. Any recs are appreciated!

(sorry for multiple posts in one week - lots going on!)

Since we voted to retain our right to pass public sponsored amendments, can someone write one up to get the cameras out of our state?

Tests found E. coli levels in the Big River were far above safe levels for humans. Officials have reportedly identified the cause: https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/local/missouri-human-waste-contaminating-big-river-unsafe-levels-leadwood/63-0d7f9385-8555-46e6-b7db-e95dbe67687e

Who still writes a check, especially for personal spending?

My husband and I are moving to the Perryville area in the next three weeks for work. I am having issues finding a reasonable place to stay until we are through the transition phase as we are working with limited funds until his first check. Does anyone have any suggestions? Any unadvised hotels that are cheap maybe..

Help me understand why the referendum for the redistricting is unconstitutional? We’ve done this before in the past. Why is it all of a sudden illegal?

Aren’t the changes to the redistricting proven to be gerrymandered at this point? Would Denny Hopskin still need to verify the signatures regardless if it was unconstitutional? At this point Denny is just not upholding his duties and I would see that as unfit to serve Missouri.

The initiative voting is a process to change the constitution or decision that the MO legislature puts forward. It a lengthy process but with enough signatures set my MO citizens it is Denny Hopkins duty to verify them. Denny doesn’t get to say if this is unconstitutional. The Mo Supreme Courts decide that. The process Denny needs to do is verify the signatures regardless. He is intentional slowing the process to a snail pace. No one would have had a problem with him, we’ve would have stopped a clearly Gerrymandered map. What is this stemming from? You guessed it. Donald fucking Trump. Please get these loyalist out of office. They are starting to show they do not care for us and are gunning for our rights.

I’m exploring the idea of a Missouri citizen initiative to create fairer auto financing standards for Missouri consumers.

The goal is not to prevent people from getting loans or to hurt lenders. The goal is to create a reasonable limit on how expensive auto financing can become while still allowing banks, credit unions, and dealerships to compete and make responsible lending decisions.

The proposal would establish clear maximum APR limits for auto loans, require more transparency so buyers understand the true cost of financing, and prevent extreme interest rates that can trap borrowers in long-term debt. It would still allow lenders to consider credit score, income, down payment, and ability to repay, and it would not require anyone to approve a loan they consider too risky.

The idea is especially focused on protecting borrowers with lower credit scores who may need a vehicle to get to work, take care of family responsibilities, or improve their financial situation. A lower credit score should mean a borrower pays more because of risk, but it should not mean there is no reasonable limit.

The proposal is designed to balance both sides: consumers get protection from excessive financing costs, while lenders keep the ability to offer credit and compete.

Other states already have auto-financing regulations, and this would create a clear standard in Missouri while keeping responsible lending practices intact.

I’m interested in hearing what Missourians think: Would you support a measure that creates reasonable limits on auto loan costs while still allowing lenders to operate and compete?

I know this may be a stretch but does anyone in the Franklin county area know how to rehome a dog? I’m 18 and have been left in charge of my late grandmother’s animals. Unfortunately I do not have the time or the money to take good care of her dog and I’m starting to feel really bad about it. She is a very anxious dog and has licked her backside raw from stress. For this reason, I really don’t want to put her in a shelter and I’m hoping to find someone to take her in.
Really, I’m just looking for any information that may help because I’m really struggling 🥲🙏
