Anyone else without power? My whole neighborhood for the last hour at least.

Just curious if anyone knows what the city is planning for St. Charles Road near Richland. I’ve called the city and left messages and haven’t heard back from them.

I keep seeing many accidents on this road and just hoping to start a conversation.

Hello! I moved here and I am looking for a place to rent that is below $1200. I have decent rental history (from 3 different places). I fell on hard times last year and started consolidating my credit card debt, which TANKED my credit score. I have never been evicted or gotten into trouble with my prior landlords. At most, I had to set up a payment plan for my last month's rent because of the aforementioned hard times. But I've paid them off and do not owe anything anymore. I have 2 sources of income coming in monthly (job and retirement) which puts me at about 55k a year. I have reached out to 10 different rental agencies and they've ALL told me not to bother applying due to my low credit score. I am to a point where I feel helpless because I really need a place to stay. I am willing to pay several months in advance or a higher security deposit, if I have to.

Hello fellow Columbians, I will be attending the speech later tonight and hope to have the chance to ask him a few questions. If so, what would everyone like to know about Lucas Kunce?

Edit: He was swamped by a crowd of people as soon as his speech ended and I was unable to question him personally. Sorry all!

Hey all!

Looking to get a coat or two dry cleaned, & I was wondering if anybody knows how the pricing compares at Robinson's, Tiger Cleaners, and French Laundry? Only Robinson's is transparent enough to have a pricing table posted on their website (which I appreciated!), so I have no clue what Tiger Cleaners or French Laundry would charge in comparison. Any info appreciated!

My friend is from out of town and asking for the best cheesy fries recommendations in town. I don’t usually order that and was curious is anyone had any good experiences?

I’m bringing my son for a campus visit to Mizzou next weekend. We’ve got family in Columbia, but they’re a little older so might not be able to help us with this one. What are some local off-campus things worth seeing/doing that only locals would be aware of? Any restaurant recommendations?

Thanks in advance for any pointers!

Is it legal from a safety standpoint for stores such as Target to block aisles? Specifically the cosmetic aisles are always blocked in more than one spot with a retractable black strap. Besides being annoying because you cant easily get from one aisle to the other, I wonder about safety issues of people being able to get out of an aisle in case of emergency? I realize this is silly sounding to some but these are the goofy things that fill my brain! Wishing you all a great day.

Rent my house!! I'm moving long distance and need someone to take over my lease! It's a great house!!

Apologies that this isn’t explicitly related to Columbia, but last night I could see their lights from three miles away on the highway. Surely it can’t be too expensive to put blinders on the edges of their screen? Can’t imagine anyone living nearby likes it either.

This is extremely embarrassing to admit :( license expired over 6 months ago and I need to retake both my written and my driving test (I use my state ID for everything because I am prettier in it and I thought both expired this year, not last year😭). I took my initial test back home before college, and I am so confused about taking it here in Columbia - where am I supposed to go, and do I need to schedule it in advance? I’m not even sure who to call ! I am a huge procrastinator but this is an actual crime so…

I’ve been without internet since 12pm!!! Anyone else having issues? They keep saying it’s an outage soon to be resolved but not time for resolution. Support has been useless!

Looking for a reputable Real Estate Appraiser for a private appraisal in Boone County.

Hi, I would like to practice piano again as an adult. However I don’t want to buy one. Is there a piano room I can rent (pay by the hour?) maybe at the university? Does anyone know of such a thing? Thank you in advance!

Hi I’m a local student hoping to sell my art and was wondering where the best place to do it would be? Is there a market I could set up a booth or stores downtown that provide space?

Thanks!!

I recently moved to the area and after getting my insurance set up, I'm looking for a provider. I have an Aetna based insurance, and would like an LGBT friendly/younger provider if possible. I know wait lists are probably crazy with students back in town, but any recommendations are appreciated. Thanks!

My wife and I took a detour on our morning drive and saw these guys on Stanley Poe Road! Anybody on here know the backstory behind them?

My online community has moved on from D&D, although they were going to help me with the combat side of the game 😑. Any places for a novice to actually play in person? Are there any groups that will accept a novice like me?

Wife and I went to Mahi's for the first time tonight, and we loved it. I'm not always the biggest fan of Ethiopian cuisine, but I like it when it's good. And Mahi's is real good. Especially the lentils and cooked kale. Check it out!

Rewording this question… does anybody have a traffic lawyer (speeding ticket) that they would recommend?

Hello, I'm a college student and I'm looking for any suggestions on outdoor running trails that are okay while alone. I'm training for longer distances and the treadmill isn't cutting it lol. I've been warned about MKT, but running around campus is getting a little bit old and I'm hoping to switch it up. I'd appreciate any recommendations you might have! Thanks!

I recently applied for a position at the city of Columbia and I always make a point to reach out to the recruiters for introductions and all that. Do they have anywhere/anyone I can reach out for this? Thanks in advance :)
