Be A Poll Worker! Participate in Democracy!

Wyandotte County is running poll worker training all the way up to the Saturday before the election. Check with your local election office to see what they need. We need help! It's a very long day but I guarantee you will feel immense gratification at having performed a crucial non-partisan civic duty. Polling places tend to be understaffed and most of the staff they have are older, we really REALLY need more to participate on election day. Feel free to DM me with questions, I'm a relative newbie but really want to encourage you to join us.

Coming in for Billie Eilish, where to stay and park?

Hi all, My daughter and I are driving in from STL for Billie Eilish concert in November. I of course, didn’t book the hotel right away, and most of downtown hotels are now either sold out or out of my price point. We’re only staying the night.

I’ve looked at few hotels around/in Overland Park, is this an area that’s safe l to stay in? Comparable to what neighborhood in STL would you say? Where else should I look?

This then means I’ll have to drive in for the concert,where can I park around the T-mobile center?

Thank you for any help!t

KCK Hotels & Things to do

I am on a quest to knock out all 50 states and my nephew wants to go to a Chiefs game on his birthday in October. I've already done MO so wanted to try to stay in KS and do a few things there and then hop over to the stadium. My rule to check it off is to stay in the state 2 nights. Any hotel recommendations? When googling it seems like each decent one I clicked ended up actually being in MO. Would also appreciate fun things to do in the area with an 8 year old and also restaurants.

Thanks!

Searching for community in KC

Hello I’ve been craving a community to be a part of. I am settling down in KC, KS due to family and friends surrounding. When I traveled solo I was detrimentally lonely and decided it’s time for my mental health to be around loved ones, it is very unfortunate that is Kansas City. Anyways, I have been wanting to look for some kind of community to be a part of. Church didn’t work out for me so I’m lost as to where else to look. Why does it feel like this is a difficult thing to do? I am interested in the art community, ice or roller skating, karaoke, and possibly somewhere to be more politically involved and active. If you have any suggestions that would be very kind to share as to where I should be looking. Thank you.

USPS work

Has anyone here worked for the post office in KCK? I have just been offered a job at the station in town and was curious if anyone could share their experience of what the job is like. I don’t quite live in KCK either so any insight as to how it is working on the Kansas side would be helpful too. Any insight would be appreciated, thank you!

Possible KCK move

Possibly moving to KCK for work & am trying to keep a reasonable salary in mind. Single 30s, no kids (yet), 1 pet. It’s been awhile since I’ve been in the MW so I’m trying to keep a decent range in mind. Any thoughts/advice on a range for someone to live?

Additionally— what are your favorite neighborhoods/places to check out?

WYCO DISTRICT ATTORNEY OFFICE CORRUPTION

WYCO DISTRICT ATTORNEY OFFICE CORRUPTION

The DA’s office needs to be investigated for dismissing serious charges for people that are acquainted with the DA Mark Dupree. There’s a story going on right now where an ex elected official for WYCO sent his ex wife and the mother of his children a threatening photo of him holding a gun and a very demeaning and threatening message. The KCKPD went forward and submitted the case for prosecution to the DA’s office, charges were filed, and an arrest warrant was issued. One day later the arrest warrant was rescinded and charges dismissed without prejudice. KCKPD Detective on the case notes that they were told due to lack of evidence however that’s weird because why were charges filed to begin with if there was a lack of evidence. This particular elected official has a lengthy negative public record and history Most notably was censured by the Unified Government during his term due to abuse of power and prestige of office and for his tantrum at LEGOland during his elected time in office.

For some reason no one’s paying attention to cases like these and the DA continues to do what he wants for who he wants!

Who can help with this to see that those charges are refiled and that he is arrested for the crime??

Camp Rise 2012- 2018

*Trigger warning*

This is a throw away account. I am not sure if anyone else experienced this at Camp Rise in Kansas City. I went to "camp rise" during the summer with other kids who came from low-income homes. I was m0l3sted by a staff member there. I recently reconnected with another kid who went to the same camp who wasn't "M", but this staff member made them very uncomfortable. After talking to this friend, I considered reporting it. I know this is a longshot and but if you had this experience and want to talk HMU.
